A despatch from Boomers Ferry says
that the water IN the KootenaI river il
stiII rising. II hes reached the top Of
the banks and Is lowing Into Main
street. Considerable anxiety Il already
manifested BY the citizens. A few days
more OF warm weather win compel
item to leave their houses and fee 10
the hills. Although this Il an annual
occurrence, yet the Inconvenience de-
tracts from the novelty. The stock Of
the general merchandise store situated
next to the bank Of the river has already
bern removed. being the first for the
season.
The railroad men report the guIches
10 the Rockies still filled with snow.
such being the case q repetition of the
1884 food seems to be inevitable.
All the meadow lands between the
town and Lake Kootenai are already
under water with the exception OF q
narrow strip next to the river bank.
The reclamation farm, upon which con
siderable money was spent in surround
ing it with dixie 10 miles in length, 10
completely covered with water. Much
Of the dyke has been destroyed. All
stock ranging in the meadow lands has
been removed to the hills. The ranch
ers are mnch discouraged, as the rising
Of the water is unusually late and none
OF the crops can be planted.
The annual high water is destructive
to the banks OF the river. During the
food Of 1894 sixty fett Of the ban o
washed away. About eight feet have
already washed away this year, and with
the widening Of the river the destructive
power Of the water is greatly increased
During the past nine years more than
300 feet Of the bank on the south side
Of the river has washed in. The north
side. having a rocky bank and above
high water is not effected.

ANNIVERSARY OF THE FALL OF
THE BASTILE.
Consular Flags Flying and Consul
Moet Receives Diplomatic Corps This
Afternoon History.

This date, Friday, July IA. is the 10th
anniversary of the fall of the Bastile.
Consular flags are flying i'm honor Of
the great French holiday. Services
were held this morning in the Catholic
Cathedral. From 1 o'clock this after
noon NJ. Moet, French consul, is re-
CeiVing government diplomatic friends
at the consulate. The Hawaiian band
is playing on the grounds, the program
concluding at o'clock.
The anniversary of the Fall of the
Bastile is celebrated in France much as
the Fourth of July is i'm the United
States. In old times it was great
day here, but with the departure of
French prestige its observance has de-
clined In San Francisco, New Orleans
and other American cities in which
are many French people the day is OBJ
served with. most elaborate exercises
and ceremonies. Mrs. Anns Montague
Turner, the Hawaiian nightingale, was
the principal vocalist for the Celebra-
tion in San Francisco last year
The Bastile was a prison fortress
built at the Porte st. Antoine, Paris,
in 1869. 1t was destroyed by a popular
uprising on July IA, 1899. The prison
was regarded as a symbol of monarch
ial depotism, and in honor of it's obli-
teration, July IA was made a national
holiday.

$. NJ. DAMONs OBSERVATIONS IN
SAN FRANCISCO.
Island Securities Bought for a Rise
Capitalists Have Not Gone In Yet
Ignorance About our Industries

THE average California mind" saio
Minister Damon this morning, Con
siders the Islands as very far off in
deed. In spite of our close connection
with San Francisco, in spite Of the
number of tourists who are constantly
visiting our shores, in spite of our
many business dealings. and i'm spite OF
all the advertising we have had in the
papers, outside of certain circles very
little is known about the Islands I
speak more especially in reference to
our business. As far as stock invest
ments and so forth the average san
Franciscan knows very little and cares
less. They have so many affairs Of
their own to attend to, so many things
to develop and get money for that they
do not pay much attention to matters
which appear to them so distant"
In talking with a prominent stock
broker" continued Mir. Damon, "he
said why don't you list your shares
i'm New York. They are accustomed
to do things on broad lines there, and
it is there that you will find the true
capitalists. To this l replied that we
wanted to get a standing in San Fran
cisco first, and that ultimately we
should try to get to the New York mar
ket The stock broker pointed out that
the transactions on the San Francisco
market were not in the nature of in
vestments, but were simply for a rise.
cisco by clerks and small people, and
sent down to the Islands for sale again,
the big people did not touch our stocks.
| have urged several stock brokers to
come down and make personal obser
walton.
our ventures here are not a boom.
! The investments we have to offer will
all be dividend paying concerns even
under adverse circumstances. Up there
they know nothing OF our intelligent
methods of cultivation and irrigation.
When | told some of the farmers, pro-
| minent men too, about our scientific
fertilzing they opened their eyes. They
don't understand it UP there. Why
some of them get a crop every other
year, allowing the land to lie fallow.
As for our economic methods for get
| ting all the juice out of the cane, 1T Is
a revelation to them.
Il noticed that the French and the
| Italians are making much progress in
the state. There are UPWARDS of $4,000
! French, who are chiefly engaged in
| wool, while the Italians, $4,000 i'm num-
ber devote themselves to the cultiya-
| ton of fruit and vegetables and the
! production of wine. They are very in
| dustrious.
The delay I'm giving us our political
status is regarded on the Coast as an
indication that Congress desires to dis
J turb us as little as possible. 1t is be-
coming evident to political thinkers
/ that you can't make New England
town out of an Hawaiian, or a Philip
pine. or a Porto Rican, but that each
must work out its progress upon spe-
cial lines, which it is best to interfere
with as little as possible"
Mr.. Damon is improved by his visit
He stayed some time in San Francisco,
went to Monterey. and took a trip
through Northern California.

A FR|GHTFUL ACCIDENT

A brakeman named Wetzell on the
Oahu Railway, fell between the cars at
HaIawa this morning and is lying in a
very precarious condition at the
Queens hospital.
His left arm and left leg were both
run over by the wheels of the car and
both will have to be amputated. The
leg is being cut off at the hip and the
arm is to be taken at the shoulder.
1t is very doubtful If the man will
survive the operations.
The man was new in the railroad en-
ploy. He was a sailor until five days
ago. Just how he happened to fall be-
tween the cars is not definitely known
and will not be until the train returns
from Kahuku tonight.
A special car was sent to Halawa to
bring the poor fellow to the city. At
the hospital he received the immediate
attention of Or. Cooper, chief hospital
surgeon.
DR.. Cooper stated this afternoon that
the case was a most delicate one. He
has hopes that the man may be able to
pull through, but his chances are ex-
ceedingly sim.
