Has Mr.. Dole and his advisers
realized the possibility OF the war
bringing other powers into the field
OF controversy, and are they aware
OF the risks which Hawaii takes by
declaring war and taking an offensive
stand against Spain and her event
ual allies? We have known Of in
stances when the 'little" fellow
"sassed" big chump because he felt
safe under the protecting fists OF
his big brother, And we have seen
the stuffing knocked out Of the
"little" fellow when it became neces-
sary for the big brother to desert
him in the interest Of his own busi.
ness. The United States may yet
have their hands full before ending
the war against Spain, which we are
told has been commenced in the
name OF humanity. The Hawaiian
Islands may be very useful at pres
sent, but, nevertheless, they are not
annexed, and they may eventually
be left as scapegoat, when an
International Congress" settles the
present war.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-06-07

If Mr.. Dole and Mr.. Cooper hope
to accomplish their annexation
scheme by adopting a bullying atti-
tude towards Spain, they are simply
adding another blunder to their
record OF mismanagemsnt of public
affairs. Hawaii will not be annexed
to the United States, but she will
have to pay "darnen" good sum
for the privilege Of being ruled by
uneducated adventures and politi-
cal scallowags.

Bottles Made of Paper.

A German paper-maker has recently
obtained letters patent on bottles made
of paper, for use on board of ships par
ticularly. 1t has been n cause of much
damage to steamer lines that in bad
weather large number of bottles of
wine and other liquors are broken in
the storerooms, in spite Of every pre-
caution. The new bottles are made of
n composition which, with the solution
in which they are made water tight, is
still the inventors secret. After being
impregnated with this fluid the paper
bottles are slowly dried in gas stoves,
and this process Of drying must be
watched carefully, for otherwise the
bottles would remain porous and al
low the fluid to leak out. These bottles
can be handled roughly without the
least apprehension; neither the pitch.
ing nor the rolling of a great steamer
during rough weather nor the break.
irg down Of truck upon which they
are loaded loosely would be apt to

Uncle Sans Coaling Island. /

Uncle Sam has ever been careful to
keep secret the movements of wal
vessels in commission 80 far as posi-.
BILE, and with this end in view he has
just shipped cargo of 1400 tons Of
bituminous coal from .this,port to Dry
Tortugas, one of the most southerly
islands of the United States, situated
100 miles from the coast of Florida.
There the ships in South ern waters
can now take on their coal, avoiding
the run to Key West, where their
movements soon become known to the
world. In war times the island was
well known to privateers and blockade
runners, but since then it hos only
been used as aquarantine station. Ter
small islands, all of coral formation,

FIGHT IN THE AIR.
Battle Royal Between a Grsy and q
Bald Eagle.

buld Eagle.
A man sat on the sands at Capron In
let, opposite Fort Pierce, and admired
the graceful flight of an osprey, says
the Jacksonville Florida Citizen. About
wheeled on widespread pinions, direct
ing his course by a motion of his tail OF
q curve of the wing. Presently he bal
anced himself, the wings shut on the
body and he plunged into a long swell
and rose with fish In his talons. With
self free of moisture, like dog, and
circled to attain sufficient altitude to
clear the woods.
But fishing eagle, twice his weight,
had seen the performance, and answer
ed the scream. He mounted to strike,
and the osprey, burdened as he was,
gave up the contest and dropped the
fish. With swing, the fisher turned
and caught 1t and few low TO regain
the blasted pine and feast.
But out of the blue came another
scream and a dim spot detached Itself
from cloud and moved straight on the
scene OF action. The fisher heard the
cry of battle, and he knew he was lost
If the bald eagle struck him with a
swoop. Hastily he turned and flew al
most directly upward, still holding his
prize. The osprey scared back with
shrill whistlings, as If he mocked the
efforts of the robber.
The bald eagle screamed again and
was answered by the gray. The bald
came with leveled head, like an arrow
from the bow-the fisher still struggled
for an equal position. Then the bald
curved the forward edge of his great
vans and started downward. The gray
dropped the mullet and turned upside
down in midair, with beak and talons
ready. The osprey caught the mullet
and sailed homeward.
Then the two great birds struck with
thud, distinctly heard below though
they must have been half mile In the
ped a pillow In q strong breeze, and
as the two fell, it could be seen that
the talons Of the bald straddled the
body Of the gray and were buried at
the roots of the wings. But the gray's
beak tore at the throat Of the bald,
while his claws were busy tearing like
the laws of a wolf who fights q bull
iog. Iueir wings ueb. each vlnvr as n
Eoose fights, and they tumbled over and
'ver slantingly to the sea. AS they
touched the water each broke its hold
Ind made for the shore. The gray fell
the edge of the woods, the bald land
ed on a tree, nearly fell, and leaned
against the trunk for support as it sat

Planting a Strawberry Patch.

J. M. Ingling, of Illinois, writes:
Any soil which will grow crop of
corn will produce strawberries. but of
course clay sub-soil of reddish color
Is best. I prefer timothy or clover
sod. Plow five inches deep very early
in March. Drag or roll, as this as
sists in rotting. Work until this is
like garden. With light marker
having three runners three feet apart,
lay the land off crosswise. Then
beginning ON one side, stretch No.
IA plain wire. Insert brick layers s
ten-inch trowel to its full depth, and
pull slightly toward yourself, pick up
plant with left hand by the leaves and
with downward forward sweep drop
in ut back of trowel with thumb and
forefnger, firmly holding the heart of
crown. Withdraw the trowel and as
you do so press the ground firmly
about the plant, pulling it up slightly.
This excludes all air and firms the
plant. When first row is set move
wire forty-two inches and repeat. I
set every third plant a fertilizer, or
one fertilizer and two female plants.
As soon as plants are set, if no rain
has fallen, run roller over them and
follow with light harrow.
Cultivate crosswise twice before
runners bother, then do all cultivat-
ing lengthwise, drawing runners in
until you make perfect or solid row.
Keep the field clean. work plants
each week until September, when
with small Diamond plow and rolling
coulter I narrow each row down to
twelve inches. In ten days 1 work
soil back to row. From first to mid
die of October I haul mulch and cover
six to eight inches deep, and the field
is ready for winter. 1 have followed
this system ten years and have no
cause to change my method. Nearly
every berry grower has his particular
ways. set plants in row as stated,
then all pickers have rows exactly
alike,
