They say that Dave Brown has been
sitting in sack cloth and ashes, all be-
cause his usually elastic conscience
has contracted and become source Of
annoyance, because he beat poor old
duffer from Lynn in hoss trade. And
they say that Dave grew so eloquent
that he got red in the face while paint
ing the valuable qualities of his nag;
that the said o. d. from Lynn actually
thought that Daye was too guileless to
lie in hoss trade and meekly gave up
his equine. But they say that Dawes
sole object in deal is boot, and that
when he helped the 0. ID. hitch up his
new nag, Dave sprinkled liberal sup
ply of dynamite and spirits of turpen-
tine on that part of the animals anat-
omy where it would do the most good.
And they say that that hoss suddenly
became so gay and festive that he kick
ed the old buffers wagon box into
tooth picks, and that Dawes above
mentioned and described conscience
went back on him so that he generous
ly consented to trade back for $40 in
cash

They say that Dick Windsor is going
to transpOse himself into professor
of agriculture, horticulture, or some
such culture, and that he has his whole
back yard turned into an experimental
station. And they say that Dick is
giving special attention to bugology,
and that when he strolls out into his
potato arbor and gazes on the havoc
wrought by bugs he uses such strong
language as to totally paralyze the
varment. And they do say that Dick
is likely TO become a millionaire by
having the process patented.

They say that some of the gay old
snorts of Road District No. . of

work in day than any other district

tive power of such abnormal energy
will soon require government reve-

Few countries have been more plagued by
the Importation of insect pests than the
Hawaiian Islands: in none have such ex-
traordinary results followed the introduce

BY far the most conspicuous of the former
class, and hitherto the most injurious. have
been the scale insects The number of
species of this group which have spread
throughout the islands is remarkable. and
not less so the enormous multiplication of
Individuals Of many or most of these spe-

The first importation of coccinelidae 10

Pugh added.
Mrs. Shea was sworn and she denied that
her husband had assaulted her.
Hes a good man. she cried. land /

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
Referring to the article headed Broken

copied from the New, York Times, in
your paper of last evening. 1, as a
pensioner desiring, tod have all frauds
ousted from the pension roll, respectfully
call the attention Of the commissioner of
pensions to the positive statement made by
Mr.. Lambert that he knows of Il dozen
fraudulent cases near Eustis, Me. trust
the commissioner Will at once send a spe-
cial examiner to take the affidavit of Mr..
Lambert in respect3te these typical pen
sion cases." which affidavit when obtained,
should serve as a fgCodi:basis for prosecu-
tion of the parties sand discontinuance Of
their pensions. Surely the affidavit would
not be refused, especially as Mr.. Lambert,
by the above publication, has led many
good people to belfeve,fne has stated the
truth, and. of course, they will expect him
to back up his statement. He cannot now
refuse an affidavit without convincing these
same people that he has simply written
himself down as a liar. PENSIONER.

Assistant Chief Kurtz of the fire depart
ment has received letter from the pastor
and congregation of Grace Evangelical
Lutheran congregation thanking him, as
well as the department generally. for the
good work done when the destruction of the
church 10y fire was threatened Sunday
morning
The letter reads:
Please accept our heartfelt thanks for
the prompt and efficient services rendered
by You, and those companies under your
charge, at the fire which occurred In our
church this morning. That the fire was
confined to such a small area was the re-
suit of intelligent and wel-directed eff
forts on your part: that the flames were
extinguished with comparatively insigEifi-
cant damage by water IS deserving of the
highest praise. and that alone prevented
what might otherwise have been very Sc
rious loss to us.
THE result in this case is simply another
illustration of the fact that. as property
holders and citizens of Washington, our
confidence in the officers and members of
the fire department is not misplaced"

Truck gardening iE Hawaii.
From the Honolulu Star.

Byron O. Clark, a practical farmer ana
gardener. who has recently come here from
Pasadena. Cal, to settle permanently, has
leased the Mclean pine apple ranch, at
Pearl City, and intends to go into the fruit
and vegetable business on a large scale.
His venture will be watched with consid-
cradle interest by number of truck farm
crs in southern California, who have long
had their eyes on the islands as rival OF
California, and would come here if they
we're assured of success. but have not the
capital to lose i'm such a venture. In speak
ing of his project yesterday Mr. Clark said:
When / came here / was surprised to
learn that the major portion of the fruit
and vegetables used here are imported
from the coast and from Australia. y
similar condition of affairs WAS found in
California when / settled there, twenty
eight years ago, but today she not only
raises enough fruit and vegetables for
home consumption, but ships an enormous
and even abroad. The export trade is grow
ing year by year and many handsome
fortunes have been made, and are being
made, in the business. There is no reason
why we cannot here raise even better fruit
and yegetab les than in California and come
into direct competition with her in supply
ing the markets of the world.
THE climatic conditions here are very
similar 10 those of southern California, only
more even, 1 think. and crops more GER
tain. The soil is excellent. too, and big re
turns may be had small investments.
AS nearly as can judge after two months
residence, this is n perfect paradise for
truck gardeners. and there is quite a fu-
ture for those who will venture into it,

INDIFFERENT ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIP
Yale's Attitude In Rowing Not Cen

orally Understood.
eff the people would simply get out
of their heads the idea. that Yale wants
to be the champion" said Mr.. Curtis,
a Yale graduate. who Is an authority in
rowing matters, yesterday, they would
soon understand why she takes the posi-
ton she does In regard to Cornell We
acknowledge the Ithacans to be the cham
pions, we know that they are high-toned,
honorable fellows and we don't conceal
the fact that we would like to meet them
again. 1t would give US great pleasure to
beat them. but the mere fact that by SO
doing we would gain the title Of champion
would have no influence.
Put to the rear the notion that we
are Corbett and ought to go to F'itz-
lism. Moreover, 1t Is entirely proper fo1
college crews that have an ambition to
be first of all to accept challenges, and
go half way or make concessions in the
that ambition. Had we been able to get
on race with Harvard, we would not
have gone to Henley.
I've look upon Harvard as our natural
and traditional opponent We want to
row her every year and to hold the race
at New Haven. If Cornell decides Il
come this year, we will gladly make the
race three-corEered, and know that we
are meeting the best In the land
But the come one. come all! idea has
not and never will have a place at Yale.
In meeting the Ithacans we do so not
because We seek to regain the title Of
champion. but because the members of the
crew are heightened gentlemen and sports
men, and because we would take delight in
defeating such a worthy foe.
ITO many college superiority in one
or several branches Of athletics is of the
greatest advantage and the faculty makes
special arrangements by which nothing can
teams-thcy are aided In q financial way
but Yale needs no such advertising, and
therefore can afford to act independently
And let me say that we act as we do
because of no feeling Of superiority or ex-
