curious relics have been found. Skele-
tons. one OF which was eight feet, and
many OF the bones found were in masses
OF charcoal. tending to show that crema-
ton was practiced even in those early
days. Axe heads, flint heads, and por-
tons of stone houses have been found in
digging away these hills on which Kan
sas City is built. To its first settlers the
site of Kansas City presented very rug
ged aspect. High bluffs. towering up
from the river, here and there scanned
by deep ravines, certainly appeared
very uninvjting place. upon which to
build a city. The early settlers, how
ever, never dreamed that their own town
would extend beyond the level ground
beyond the river. This ground is not
now sufficient to accommodate the rail.

A HEAVY RAINSTORM.
It Made Things Disagredable But Did
No Serious Damage.

The weather yesterday from early in
the morning until far into the night was
about as disagreeable as the people of
Baltimore care to have il. There was a
steady down pour of rain and at inter-
walls sharp showers that made pedes-
trains scurry tor shelter.
During the "a hours ended at 8 p. m,
there was total rainfall OF 30 hundredths
of an inch. The water was speedily car
ried off without any serious damage.
The storm came up the Atlantic coast
and was general II was carried along
by wind storm that reached the velocity
of 20 miles an hour and which was blow
ing at ~ mile rate at 8 p. m.
The storm caused high water in the
barber, reaching a point that was higher
than it had been known around the
wharyes for long time. Many bay yes
sells were delayed from sailing because of
the storm.
The rain last night prevented generally
the usual Hallowe'e en- street scenes, and
whatever merrIment was incident TO the
occasion transpired within doors.

probabilities being that he will play.

Observations Of the eclipse were
made at Oahu college by Professor In
gals.
The five and half inch telescope,
which has recently been fitted with an
equatorial mounting, was SO arranged
that many persons could simultaneous
ly watch the eclipse.
A large black diaphragm having a
circular hole in its center, was thrust
over the larger end Of the telescope,
at right angles to the long axis OF the
instrument. by this means the eye
end OF the instrument and its immed-
late neighborhood was shielded from
the direct rays Of the sun. Then a
white screen was arranged at right
angles to the long axis of the telescope
about foot from the eyepiece. This
screen received the image OF the sun
with the moon encroaching upon its
disc. BY this means as many as could
crowd into the dome OF the observatory
were able TO watch the phenomenon.
Several large sun spots were discovered
near the center Of the sun.
A good many citizens and pupils OF
number OF the public and private
schools watched the eclipse.

A Diiplls Over On ADDraIsnsll
Of Land.
A olFFtRtMCe on vAluAvlos
Appeal From Tss Board o,
tswsii-Dr. N. Russsi q Party.
a Test Matter.

a defendants brief was filed yester
day In the appeal from assessment oi
coffee lands Of Dr. N. Russell, ct al, w.
n. G. Austin. tax assessor.
The plaintiffs are cultivators OF oof-
fee upon lands owned by them at olaa,
island OF Hawaii. and made their sew
eral returns to the assessor on the
value OF such lands.
The assessor, deeming that the val
ues had been placed below the unim-
proved market value thereof, raised
them to higher figure than set forth
In the returns.
The plaintiffs appealed TO the board
OF tax appeals and evidence OF the
market value of the several parcels of
land was presented by both parties
The Tax Appeal Board rendered its de-
cision, and In each case made a reduc-
ton from the value assessed by the
Assessor, but decided upon higher val
uations than those returned by the re-
spectiye taxpayers.
IL appears from the evidence that
the Assessor assessed the several par
GELS Of land at a valuation which he
deemed TO be the fair, unimproved
market value of the same. The plain
tins claimed that the enhanced value
Of the land, II any, was due to the
crops and coffee cultivation, together
with the buildings and improvements
placed upon the land by them in their
prosecution OF the coffee industry and
as by statute. Chapter IS, Laws 1892,
''all coffee trees and ramie plants, and
all coffee and ramie produced In this
country; and all mills, machinery, ETC.,
used exclusively in the care, cultivation
or preparation OF coffee or ramie for
market shall be and are exempt from
all taxes and import duties" and as
the enhanced market value OF the land
was due to the coffee cultivation and
incidental improvements, and that the
additional assessment was, practically,
tax upon the coffee trees, mills, ETC.,
and was illegal.
1t Is contended on behalf OF the de-
fendant that the market value OF unim-
proved land. (of similar quality,
would AFFORD a measure Of value and
that this land having become OF high
er value because OF the cultivation OF
coffee In the locality, does not exempt
the owners of such land from paying
taxes upon such higher value.
The evidence shows that the assess.
ments made by the Assessor In these
cases were even lower than the marke,
value OF similar lands In that neigh.
borhood which had no improvements
upon them.
