A Model Plant is not complete with
out Electric Power. thus dispensing
with small engines.
Why not generate your power from
one CENTRAL Station? One gener-
ator can furnish power to your Pump
Centrifugals, Elevators, Plows, Rail-
WAYS and HOSTS; also furnish light
and power for a radius of from 10 to 70
miles.
Electric power being used saves the
labor of hauling coal in your field, also
water. and does away with high-priced
engineers. and only have one engine to
look after in your mill.
Where water power is available 1t
costs nothing to generate Electric
Power.
THE HAWAIIAN ELECTRIC COM
PANY is now ready to furnish Electric
Plants and Generators of all descrip-
tons at short notice, and also has on

HANGED NEGRO COMES TO LIFE.
So It Is Told by Stcry That Comes from
Down in Alabama

Tuskegee, Ala, Nov. 27.-Last Friday
negro named Henry Dawson was
hanged here for murder by the sheriff.
He was a large 200-pounder. and when
the trap was sprung fell SO hard he
almost broke the rope. Fifteen minutes
after the fall he was cut down and
the physicians present pronounced him
to be dead from strangulation. His
body was turned over to his friends for
burial
n negro named Rueben Rice now
comes forward. with the statement
that Dawson is not dead: that as soon
as the wagon was outside OF town the
lid of the coffin was oried OF and
whisky and other restoratives applied
with the result that the supposed
corpse was resuscitated. and after an
hour or two was recovered sufficiently
to walk. The evidence as to the truth
of the statement is that the negroes
having the remains in charge have left
the neighborhood. and no evidence Of
a new-made grave can be found about
the Buchanan place, where Dawson
was to have been buried.

weather was of a delightful quality,
warm and bright. and Major McKin-
ley made the most of 1t. The mild
hammered family horse was drawn up
on for unusual services. and themodest
carriage of the president-elect was seen
on the street a number of times during
the day. First, the Major and Mrs.
Mckinley had an early morning drive;
then while the major went to church
Mrs. Mckinley and several women
friends continued the drive, Mother Nc
kinley's carriage with some of her
household going ahead or behind them
After the services the carriage was
again used to take the major and Mrs.
Mckinley to the home Of their old
friend, Mrs. Mary Lester Reynolds,
where a quiet and informal dinner par
ty was held.
In the. afternoon there was more
pleasure driving. and towards evening
the major took a walk. finally landing
at the home of his mother in time for
tea, where a portion of the evening
was spent. The express wagons made
their usual trips to the house, unload

friend, which required the combined
ingenuity of the household to get it

were not many callers. and the only
ones of prominence were Senator w.

They are going to Japan. and came
here to pay their respects to the presi-
dent-elect before leaving the country.
The Minnesota visitors are numerous
and give the gossips many nice NOR
