Abolition Of Dairy Commissioner.

A bill introduced in the house by
Bush of Clark, provides for the aboli-
tion of the position of dairy commits
sioner, created by the last legislature,
and transfers the enforcement of the
dairy laws to the sheriff of each county.
No change further than this is made in
the law protecting dairy interests.
Dairy Commissioner Smith receives a
salary of 1,OO0 year and travelling
expenses, making total expense of
about $4,000 to the state each year.
Mr.. Bush claims that the sheriff of each
county will be able to better enforce
the dairy laws, and at no expense.
The secretary of state, the president of
the agricultural college, and the attor-
ney-general are created by the bill a

ical ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts gentle efforts pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that SO many forms Of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to constipated condi-

everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. It's beneficial
effects are duelto the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. It is therefore
ell important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when You pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co only and sold by
all reputable druggists.

and the system Is regular. laxatives or
other remedies are then not needed. II

The question as to how ball bearings
reduce friction has often been asked.
With ordinary bearings the wheel runs
ON the axle as "a sledge on the ground,
and no matter how smooth and well
oiled the axle may be there must he con-
siderable friction. With ball bear
ings," however, the wheel runs on
small steel balls placed between it and
the axle, and these, turning on their
axles as the wheel rotates, act as ''fric-
ton wheels" and reduce the friction be-
tween wheel and axle to minimum.
The circumference of the ball is more
than three times its diameter, so the
balls travel round the axle only u third
as fast as the wheel, but the inside of
the wheel in contact with the balls
must have greater circumference than
the axle, and therefore the wheel will
tend to turn the balls faster than they
can run truly on the axle, with the re-
suit that there must be certain amount
of slipping of the balls. The friction
thus caused, however, Is third less
than if the wheel were running directly
on the axle. -Cincinnati Enquirer.

A POLICE SEIZURE MADE.
a LARGE QUANTITY OF OPIUM
DISCOVERED UP TOWN.
Importers Quarrel-Chinaman and u
Woman Inform-A Method that Has
Long been a Certain Success.

\ seizure of opium, which contained
exactly as many tins of opium-eigh-
ty-fve-as were discovered in one
cracker box consigned to the Wash
ington Feed Company, was made by
the police this morning. The stuff
had been struggled in during the
night from the Australia-as the po-
lice declare-and would undoubtedly
have passed into the hands of dealers
had it not been for Chnaman be-
coming jealous of IA fellow country
man in his i'll gotten riches, and in
forming.
Shortly after o'clock this morning,
Chu Kun, who is slave to opium and
a bother to the police, approached
/ Capt. Kanae,S of the first watch, and
informed him that there was opium
hidden away in the home of Mrs. Ha-
| luaani, wife of Representative Halua-
| lani of the District of Eva. Chu Kun
suggested that Kanae go up there and
| brighten the woman and also Il China
man named All Wal. For this trouble
the informer would receive 800.
Capt. Kanae at once started for the
place. which is little frame building
off of Fort street and between Bere-
tania and School street. On the way
he met Mrs. Halualani who stated
that she had discovered the opium and
she desired him to come and get it.
The two went to the house together
and found three large bags containing
eighty-five tins of dope. All Wal was
arrested on the charge of importing
opium. Chu Kun. who attempted tc
carry away the opium after All WI
had been arrested was also arrested
on the same charge.
With the seizure of this opium the
police have come into possession 81
rich information which the opium
smugglers will not like at all. 1t is {
decidedly new line on the business ano
will be closely watched by the custom
house officials in the future.
The tins of opium were done up ii
' ii large bag made of canvas, which Is
well soaked in linseed oil and which i,
covered with black paint. These bags
are fastened to the side of the shiI
well under water and on the whar-
side of the ship. 1T night diver
with fiat bottomed boat secures tn,
bags and manages to get them ashore
without the slightest interference.
The Australia, from what the two
Cinnamon in custody say, brough
considerable opium to the city in this
manner. The tins captured by Capt
Kanae this morning were taken from
the side of the ship last night. Thu
bags were first taken to poi factory
where they were placed in a poi barre
and taken at an early hour this morn
ing to Mrs. Halualani's residence.
Detective Kaapa's men are looking
for more of the stuff.

M'KENNA'S PROMOTION
Looking From Cabinet Seat to
the Bench

CHICAGO, April pa special to the
Times-Herald from Washington, d. c.,
says: Although President Mckinley has
made no disclosures concerning the mat
ter. so far as is known. there is an un-
derstanding that when the first vacancy
occurs upon the supreme bench, Attor-
rey-General McKenra will be appointed
to a place on the court, and Judge Vim.
r. Day of Canton, Ohio, will be his sue-
cessor. Judge Day was one of Mr.. Nc
Kinley's first choices for a seat in the
cabinet. but Mr.. Day, who is responsible
to the heirs of his wife's father for the
management of their estate, which has
for some time been in anything but a
satisfactory condition, did not feel that
he could take either this post or that Of
solicitor-gener which he was urged to
accept.
1t is well known that Attorney General
McKenna prefers to be on the bench,
and now that Judge Day has succeeded
in relieving himself of Il large part of
the responsibility concerning the prop
erty committed to his care in Canton, it
is believed he will be willing to become
a member of the Mckinley administra-
tion.
Mr.. McKenna, il has been remarked,
goes to the supreme court every decision
day and listens carefully to the pro-
ceedings. Among his intimate friends
there is an understanding that he ex-
poets to go on the bench within a year
or two in case there should be a vacan-
cy. Whether or not Justice Field will be
willing TO retire next August. when his
term of service will exceed that of Chief
Justice Marshall. remains to be seen.
Among his colleagues on the bench
there is belief that Judge Field has no
Intention of retiring, and that he will
die In harness
