Mocha and Java Coffee Said Not to
be in the Market.

A writer in the New York Sun has
the following regarding the statement
that pure Java and Mocha coffee can
not be purchased at any store in the
United States.
sTo THE EDITOR OF The Sun Sir:
If D. G. w. will consult the official re-
cords he will find that in eight years
there have been four bags of actually
genuine Mocha coffee received at this
port, and these were presents for New
York and Philadelphia families; yet
there is Mocha galore. Perhaps
this may help him. Any one who has
ever seen this small, round Mocha
berry, about one third the size of Java,
can never mistake it or its aroma in
the pot If he goes to the largest and
leading retail grocery houses and asks
for genuine Java or Mocha, and pays
any price they ask, he will not get it.

to grind one grade for a good custom
or to smell and test in their place, and
then ship mixed grade for the order

Poisons engendered by food fer

the direct cause of rheumatism, govt,
bronchitis, liver and kidney COM

nervous ailments.
These results are prevented by the
use of the Shaker Digestive Cordial, a
remedy discovered and prepared by
the Shakers of Mount Lebanon, N. Y.
It is in itself a food and has power to
digest other food taken with it. Thus
it rests the diseased stomach and fin
ally masters the worst cases Of dys-
pepsia. It acts promptly and fresh
strength and increase of weight soon
follows. The first dose, taken immed-

or currants, it is thousand to one he
will get the California product, and if
he can tell the difference, and it is
easy, by reason of the lack of aromatic
fragrance in the domestic, he will be
argued down and all but threatened
with an action for damages. The
same will be the case with the fine i'm
ported macaroni and many other
things. It is the same with imported
cigars; 80 per cent, sold as such are
made here"
S. J. Race of the late firm of Nc
Kay & Race, when shown the article,
was Of the opinion that the writer was
wrong. He stated that Winslow,
Rand & Watson and Chase & Sanborn,
both Boston houses, made a speciality
Of handling only high grade coffee
and that they not only sold Mocha
and Java coffee to the trade but that
both houses have offered to forfeit
81, 900 in case the coffee they sold was
not as represented, and this pertains
to Mocha and Java. Mr.. Race said
that this grade Of coffee at wholesale
prices in Boston could not be bought
for less than 81 cents per pound and
more frequently IS cents, and conse-
quently any coffee retailed at IS cents
for Mocha and Java could not be the
pure article.

WELLS SCOUTING WEALTH.
The Niles Wonders to be ExCelled
in the DakOtds.

The agricultural miracles of the
Nile will fade in comparison with the
crops that will be taken from the val
ley of the James River in the Dakotas
and the Saskatchewan in the far north
when the new system of artesian wells
has reached it's full development.
There are now about LOO wells in
South Dakota, and about half as many
in North Dakota. These are all the
results of experiments covering three
or four years in the one State and half
as long in the other. They are divid-
ed into what are called shallow wells,
varying in depth from SO to 300 feet,
and taking moisture from an upper
stratum of water, and deep wells, vary
ing in depth from 1000 to 1900 feet,
and taking water from the great Da-
kota sandstone basin. Brute county
alone has thirty of the latter class,
with flow on an average of 1000 gal
Ions minute. Had it not been for
the difficulty of placing bonds under
the new Artesian Well Act during the
past season there would now be near
" 1000 wells in South Dakota, insur-
ing magnificent crops over a wide
area.
These great wells stand unrivalled
in the height of their pressure and the
copiousness of their flow. Their vast
flow has already given rise to fears
that they might not last long, and
that by the time the farmer had dug
mis- we'll and constructed his farm for
the use of irrigation, they might fail
him. There is power in these under
ground waters to grind at the harvest
fields every bushel of wheat that is
raised in the fertile praries of the Da.
kotas.
The immediate sources of the waters
are the sandstone layers in the social
ed Dakota geological formation, which
average 300 feet in thickness. The
water comes up often with immense
pressure, from us to 200 pounds tc
the inch, and at some wells is lifted in
a solid eight or ten inch stream scores
of feet above the ground. Why
should it not ere this have burst forth
and spent itself? is often asked. From
400 to 1000 feet of thick and heavy
clay resting above the sandstone has
been sufficient to hold it down till tap
ped. The sandstone of the Dakota
basin extends indefinitely north ano
south under the great plains in huge
shallow trough. It's western edge, O.
very irregular form, lies exposed along
the eastern foothills of the Rocky
Mountains, in ridges around the Blacl
Hills, and in other upheavels east O
the Rockies. These exposures lie at
height of from $500 to $500 fee

ABOVE Cno sea. lLS eastern eQgo LnlnS
out to a narrow ledge and is almost
completely lost under the drift of lat
or ages. It lies at the altitude of from
800 to 1000 feet. It is obvious that
if water is turned into the porus sand
stone of this Dakota and Jurassic for
nation at its upper and western edge
till it is filled to the brim, and then if
the sandstone is tapped at level of
about 1900 feet above the sea, the al
titude of the James river basin, water
will burst forth with immense force.
The efficient head may be more than
500 feet.
Because of the unavoidable leakage
along its eastern ledge the presence
of water in the sandstone grows less
toward the east, till it barely reaches
the surface. This decline of pressure
has been found to be about four feet a
mile from Highmore to Huron, S. D.,
and similar grade appears to extend
from Sheridan, Wy, to Marshall,
Mimi, where are the easternmost of
the artesian wells of the basin. This
leakage and the opening of wells, with
their vast waste Of water, must in time
exhaust the supply if it we're not con-
stantly replenished. Water is suppl
ed to the formation or reservoir in
three ways. First, by rainfall on its
western upturned edge, where the
annual rains are twenty-four inches a
year. AS there are 5000 square miles
of this upturned edge, and MALT this
fall goes into the porus strata, there is
the enormous total of almost $4,000
100000 cubic feet year from this
source alone. The second source is
the water that may seep into the basin
from streams flowing over it. The
Missouri river loses 7,OOO,OOO,OOO Gu.
bic feet daily as it flows along the
sandstone near Great Falls alone, and
it is fair to reason that the Yellowstone
Big Horn, North Platte, and Other
streams that are more closely allied te
the Dakota basin add twice as MUCK
more, making about ten billion cubic
feet from this second source. Their
there are vast quantities of water thai
come to the sponge-like stone from
older formations below and from above
The first two sources will supply
more than ten times the water now re
ceived from all the artesian wells com
bined. It is calculated that the stored
supplies of water in the sandstone re
present lake 80 feet deep over al
area of 10000 square miles. There
is enough in this stored supply t
cover the James river valley and tn,
semi-arid belt foot deep with wate
yearly for thirty years.
i A first-class we'll on any farm in tn,
valley will supply nearly 1000 gallons
minute, and will cost about $500
1t will supply water to 1900 acres
The practical value of the water ha
been fully demonstrated the last tw'
|, seasons, and all who have had we'll
are enthusiastic. There has not beel
, one failure in South Dakota excep
through ignorance. Farms in Dakot'
! can be bought, wells ample to suppl,
them dug, reservoirs built, and home

WAS ANY POISON FOUND?
Pike Mystery Investigated and
Partly Cleared Up.

Some time ago The GAZETTE gave
currency to rumor regarding the
sudden death of G. A. Pike, residing
in North Hero township. At that
time the gossip of the neighbors was
to the effect that death might have
resulted from foul means. At the
time The GAZETTE wired County At
torney Clague whether there was suf-
ficient in the rumor to warrant an in
vestigation, and that official replied
that he knew of no sensation warrant
ing an investigation.
Since that time physician in Ho-
ward Lake. who was an old friend of
the deceased, wrote physician in this
city regarding the death, which, he
alleges, was attributed to lead poison
ing, but which could not have been so
on account of Pike, who was printer,
not having worked in printing office
for year or more prior to his death.
The physician here communicated
the information to the county author
tiles, and an investigation appears to
have followed as the following tele-
gram from Lamberton to the St. Paul
Dispatch of last Thursday, corrobor.
ates:
"The suspicious OF the poisoning Of
G. A. Pike, which have been entertain.
ed by the people of this vicinity fol
some time past have at last been re-
, moved. Last November Pike died
very suddenly, and his remains were
brought here for shipment to Ovation
ma, hardly before they had become
cold. However, people did not attach
much to these facts until about two
weeks after her husbands demise Mrs
Pike again assumed the matrimonial
yoke, this time being united to Gus
Knight, a farmer of this vicinity.
CAT this, coupled with the report
that Mrs. Pike had purchased poison

| mise, people began to whisper fou1
play. These rumors apparently soor

AMONG THE JAPANESE.
Runaway Laborers Arrested on
Hawaii.

News of q very serious ARRAY in 0o-
kala, Hawaii. arrived on the Claudine
yesterday morning. 1t seems that
Jaanese laborer on the plantation in
the place mentioned above suspected
his wife and wishing TO make sure that
his suspicious were well grounded, hid
himself in the cane one night last week
and waited developments. II was not
long before six or eight Japanese came
TO call on his wife. This served as q sig
nal. and appearing suddenly with two
very sharp cane knives, he chased the
invaders of his premises, who, seeing
themselves cornered, climbed up into
the rafters of the house. The infuri-
ated Jaanese used his knives TO so good
effect that he succeeded in cutting up
six of the men and of this number,
one is not expected 10 live.
Drs. Stow and Irwin are attending the
men and Chester 4. Doyle the japanese
interpreter and Sheriff Andrews are in
vestigating the matter. The japanese
ran away after he committed the crime
but he was caught later and is now at
Laupahoehoe.
Chester A Doyle has been over in
Kona and has arrested quite a number
Of japanese on warrants sent up from
Honolulu for charges Of conspiracy
against the Hawaiian Government
Some OF these have already arrived
here and are being held pending inyes-
ugation and trial. After the arrests
had been made mauka of kailua, the
whole Of the police force in the North
and South Kona districts hid in the
/ bush near by in the hope Of catching
number Of the men who escaped.
Kona has been full Of runaway jap
anese from all plantations Of the Isl
and of Hawaii for some two years
/ back. Most of these runaways are en-
ployed in coffee planting but since the
arrival of Doyle in the district, the
labor seems 10 be demoralized for in
many of the places whole gangs of the
Japs who were runaway contract labor
ers and who have formed companies
to clear the land for the coffee people
have left their camps with tools
clothes, etc. and have taken to the
bush probably not TO return very soon
Some of the Japs have returned to tbs
plantatins from which they ran ava!
over year ago. Doyle has also ar
rested some japanese mauka of Waia
kea plantation 10 which place he wen
on the hinau by way of Kawaihae
The japanese were arrested late OF
Saturday night and, after p hours, NJ
charge was made against them at III
. police station In consequence Of this
, the Hilo lawyers are in very much o
! q quandary as the mode of going abou
it TO have them released. The Japan
csc are very much ineensed over III
matter as bail has been refused then
, all. though they are ready TO put u
money in any quantity.
DOYLE has started over to the Hama
kua district, probably TO arrest NOR
Japanese.
