DEATH OF ROBERT COwEs.
Died ON the Zealnndia on the Voyage
TO the Coast.

On the morning of Sunday, April
"a, Robert Cowes, chief steward of
the Zealandia, died at sea. He
came from Honolulu to take charge
of the stewards department when
she was put in commission and on
his arrival here he was a very sick
man. He was sufficiently recovered,
however, to 60 out on the steamer,
and when the Zealandia was here
last was feeling first rate again.
Just prior to the sailing of the vessel
from Honolulu CoWeS was feeling
sick again, but insisted on making
the trip. He grew gradually worse
and in spite of everything that could
be done for him he died at 6 a. m.
on Sunday. The body was brought
to San Francisco, where it will be
embalmed and sent back to Honolulu
on the Zealandia. The deceased
leaves a widow and family and a
large circle of friends on the islands.
Robert CoweS was we'll known to
the travelling public, having served
for years in the Pacific Mail Com
pany's steamers, and before retir-
ing from the service had been in the
Oceanic Steamship Company's
MaripoSa as chief steward.

ment and the wharves under lha,
plan could be built from time to
time as needed.
The new dock will give
nearly 100000 square feet of
dock surface and the ex
pense for the two wharves
alone will be in the
neighborhood of $4,000.
Besides the condemnation of
the Youmaps property, it would
be necessary to condemn a small
angle of railroad land at the head
of the slip for road purposes, but
the cost of this will be very slight.
The project of turning the
water of Nuuanu stream into it,
old bed and thence to Kallhi har-
Dor is not a new one by any
means, and there are many who
maintain that if this is done it
will cost much less to dredge the
harbor in future than it has of
late years.
The entire expense of this IN
dertaking will be in the neighbor-
hood of $l50,000, according to
Superintendent Rowell's figures.
That official has just had prepared
a large map showing the proposed
slip for the use of the Legisla-
ture.
The next question is will the
Legislature approve the new plan
and vote the money to carry it
into execution. IL SO Honolulu
will soon have new dock capa-
BILE of floating four of the largest
mail steamers besides other small

ENTIRE new HARBOR PLAN
Nuuanu Stream to Be Diverted Into
Kalihi HarbOr.
Present Bed Of the Stream 10 Be Turned Into a
Slip With WharVeS on
Both Sides.

In the Senate next Monday the
bill making special appropriations
for public purposes payable out
o. the Loan Fund comes up on its
final reading Among the items
appropriated is one of $4,000 for
harbor improvements at Homo
lulu.
Minister Cooper notified, the
Senate informally yesterday that
he should on Monday ask that
this item be increased by Sl19,-
COO, making total appropriation
of 1900 to be spent in Homo
lula harbor during the next two
years.
This large increase is made
necessary by an entire change of
the plan of harbor improvements
on the part of the government,
which involves the total abandon
ment of the scheme TO run a 600
foot wharf out from the old lime
kiln point and the construction of
new wharves on both sides of the
Nuuanu stream instead. The deal
with the Youmans Estate will be
allowed to lapse by default and
the property condemned aud ex-
csvated for wharf purposes instead
of being filled in. This property
has been assessed for some years
past at valuation of $4,000 and
under the law passed by the last
Legislature not more than 20 per
cent above the assessed value can
be recovered in any condemnation
proceedings. Hence the govern
ment by condemning the property
eers the whole of it for $4,000 or
less in tead Of going to an expense
of nearly $4,000 in filling in a
p rtIou of it to obtain tide 10 the
balance.
The present plan in a nutshell
consists in dammiog up the Nuu
anu stream at point just above
the junction OF Queen and River
streets, and turning the stream
across The railroad lands through
its ancient bed into Kalibi harbor.
The present bed of he stream be-
low the dam will then be- utilized
as a new slip with wharves on
eithrr side, space being left at the
head of the slip for 100 foot
roadway, which will start from the
junct', n of Queen aud River
streets.
The present bed of the river
will be excavated to form
the new slip to depth
of % feet and cut will have to
be made clear through the You
mans lot on which the dredger
has LATELY been pumping mud.
The excavation to be made is
roughly estlm .ted as involving
the dredging of about 10000
yards at an expense of about $50,
600, the material to he excavated
being soft mud, as determined by
borings already made.
The new 81 p thus made by the
present bed of TIE stream and the
cut through the Youmans proper
ty will be 100 le-t wide, % feet
dep and 800 feet in length. On
the mauka side there will be a
wharf 40 feet wide and $50 feet
long aud on the makal side a
wharf 80 feet vide and 800 feet
long. Th-width of the slip, l60 feet,
will allow OF the largest kind of
vessels lying alongside both
wbarves and leave plenty of room
for Island Gamers aud other
small vessel to pas in the middle
or go alo gsi Ie the vessels in the
slip to di-cnarge their freight.

Catching Cold.

The best means CT warding off colds
are TO develop to the fullest extent the
discriminating power of the body,
and to avoid everything most likely
to give cold. The first object may be
accomplished by wearing only just suf-
ficient clothing to keep us comforta-
bly, warm; by accustomirg ourselves
to sudden changes Of temperature by
the daily use of the cold bath; and by
preserving the best state Of health.
While our clothing should insure us
against any feeling of cbilliress, we
must remember that cold is bracing,
and heat relaxing, and that Of the two
10 is better to be rather under than
overload. The regular practice Of cold
bathing educates the power by which
the depressing effect of cold is re-
sisted. When the shock of the shower
and plunge baths is more than can be
borne, a sponge dipped in cold water
should be passed rapidly over the body,
and then rough towel applied vigcr.
ously until dryness and warmth are
fully restored.-New Ideas.

MAKE LIFE ATTRACTIVE.
Otherwise Children Cannot he Kept
Upon the Farm


Upon the Farm.
We often hear II deplored that 30
many farmers boys and girls leave the
farm so early, but It Is all in their bring
ing up, and nine times out of ten the
parents are responsible. They do not
make farm life attractive enough. They
forget that God designed every farm for
an Eden. and stalk through life as un-
concerned to the beauties around them
as the dumb brutes under their care do.
l heard young man of 20 say the
other day that he wouldn't leave home
for anything-that he considered It the
prettiest spot on earth. Come to find
out, that boy never had to get up at
three o'clock in the morning and work
until sunset. He was blessed with
parents who considered their children
of more Importance than overwork or
money. Pleasures were furnished at
home to keep the boys out of danger.
Even Fourth Of July was celebrated so
| splendidly at home that the boys had no
desire to go anywhere. Invent to one of
those farm entertainments, and there
was picnic all day in the orchard, with
swings and boat rides on the mill pond,
Ice cream and fireworks. The farmer
was not rich man, either; lie only
looked out for the good and enjoyment
of his boys.
| Some farmers and their wives take
time to interest their children in beau
ties around them, and set them to work
making collections of flowers, leaves
and grasses, with names written neat
ly under each. They let their children
bring MOSES and stones into the house
and form little cabinets of their own.
They encourage them to draw and paint
pictures of all the birds and insects they
see, to learn their names and become ac-
quainted with their habits. Such chill
dren will not want to leave the farm.
But the average farm of to-day is so
dreary and monotonous, with its end
less routine of duties, oftentimes ac-
companicd with hurry and harsh words,
no wonder the young people want to
leave the farm and hunt up something
more cheerful.
There is nothing in the world so
sweet, so healthful, as farm life when
carried on right, and there's love at
home" Let parents look to it that their
children are entertained. and so many
of them will not want to leave the farm,
but will be satisfied toremain at home
with papa and mahn,a as long as they
live, and then take their places after

Euture OF Fi.h Farming.

Fish farming has never been taken up
seriously by our farmers, although
hundreds of farms have suitable water
privileges or are so constituted that
ponds could easily be made on them.
The rage for German carp which swept
the country few years ago has acted
rs setback for fish farming, because
the German carp is coarse, fiavorless
fish, its flesh full of bones and it's habits
that of a buzzard, no feed being too
foul for 1t and no pond too muddy.
We have native fishes that are first
class for the table, and with very little
trouble they could be bred with profit.
No doubt an acre in fish could be made
more profitable than it would be put
TO any other use. This is one of the in
dustries> that will come later.-Farm-

STRAIGHT FARMING.
More Popular Now Than Ii Has Been
for n Long Time.


The past five or six years have been a
period of shifting, experimenting and
trial with large number of farmers.
Urged by low prices of staple products
they left the old and ventured into new
fields of live stock production, cropping
and methods of farming. These ex-
periments have not been satisfactory
TO the vast majority, for no sooner did
they get into a new field than it was
overrun with their competitors. But
the experience has been valuable. The
result is n general tendency to return
TO the production of the staples in a
system of mixed farming as being the
most satisfactory in the long run. Most
OF the so-called "specialties" which
were to do so much for the average
farmer have failed to enrich him. Most
OF the new crops which were so loudly
praised in the beginning have been
found no improvement over the old. But
in methods of farming, which involved
cheaper production and a better prod
uct, there has been considerable adj
vance. For these reasons straight
farming" is now more popular as well
as more promising than for a long time
and this is for the greatest good to the
greatest number OF demonstrations

FACTS FOR BEEKEEPERS.

The queen is the life of the colony.
Always set bcehives close to the
ground.
Keep the hives well painted, espe-
cially the roofs.
Hives should be set with entrances
facing south or east.
Smoke is the only thing that will sub
due or control bees.
Thorough ripening of honey is more
important than color.
DO not winter bees in house unless
it is frost-proof and dark.
Put good layer of sawdust around
the hive, especially in front.
The air should always circulate be-
tween the ground and the hive.
Never smoke bees at any time more
than is necessary to quiet them.
Wind breaks on the north and west
sides of the apiary are beneficial.
Heavy canvas or duck is good ma
terial to cover the frames in winter.
Very late swarming out is good evil
dence that the bees are starved out.
Bees Matched during the summer
months almost all die before spring.
Hives should not be set fiat on the
ground, but be raised about two inches.
1t is an advantage always to furnish
new swarm with frame of young
brood
In order to insure straight combs in
empty frames comb guides must be
used.
Neither honey boards nor boards of
any kind should be placed directly in
the frames.
Some kind of absorbing material
should be placed directly over the
combs in winter.
The proper time for transferring
bees is early in the spring, when the
bees are gathering their first honey.
Roofs of hives of every kind should
have a good coat of paint every fall;
lealy roofs are very damaging.-St.
Louis Republic.
