WEEKS NEWS ON MAUI

Wailuku, Maui, April IA
Union Sunday school exhibition
of the Waikapu and Wailuku Sun
day schools took place at Kaahu-
manu- native church last Sunday.
The exercises we're greatly adj
mired especially the musical part
of the program.
The jewelry stolen from the
restaurant of Wa Kee on Market
street some time ago has been
found. A native of the district of
Pouhala, Waikiki, was setting his
terrier after a thieving mongoose
last Sunday and the mongoose
ran and hid under pile of rocks.
The native in order to be sure that
the mongoose will not return and
disturb his chickens, removed the
rocks, and in doing 80 he came
across a bag in which was the
missing jewelry belonging to Wa
Kee. The Chinsman suspected
of stealing these goods is now in
Oahu Jail awaiting trial at the
coming June term of the Maui
Court. A friend of the Pske was
seen prowling about the vicinity
of the pile rocks a few days before
as though looking for the exact
spot where the booty was hid.
The native will likely obtain the
500 reward offered by the owner.
Kaahumanu church clock fol.
lowed the example of the Kawaia-
hao church clock last Monday
afternoon. At 2 o'clock, the said
clock struck fifty six times by
actual account, and would NOT
have stopped il it were not for the
untimely interference of D. Crow
ell who climbed the church tower
and stopped the eccentricities OF
the heretofore faithful town clock.
One of our Wailuku attorneys
made certain remark before the
District Court this week referring
to a certain Waikiki club, and
one of the members of the said
club although not present in court,
caused the said attorney to retract
what he had said. The occasion
was the trial of two bankers aud
five runners for being present at a
che ia or lottery game. The
Judge fined each Of the seven Chi.
nese $40.

As evening settles down along tie land,
And lamps blink, and the wind is lulled asleep,
Then through the spirit moves a knowledge
deep
The day denies us; then a living hand
Nestles from nature into ours ms sand
Slides in the glass; we dream, and half we leap
The barriers that the dumb recorders keep;
\ ray streams through, and half We under
stand.
For twilight Is the spirits dwelling place,
Where mystery melts the slow dissolving world
And ghosts of order step from accident.
Faith that still hovers where the dew is pearled
Steals forth and beckons. and from baLish-
ment
Our dearer selves we summon face to face.

THE WATER QUESTION.

Tho proposition to give tie city of Car

a bill will be introduced in the Legisla-
latura empowering the City Trustees to
Issue bonds up to an amount Of 100000.

matter in charge deemed it expedient to

vote Of the people of the county.
The Trustees will first ascertain
whether the old company are willing to

reasonable it is proposed to purchase the
plant and by purchasing more water
rights give the City a fuller supply. In
case the Water Co. decline to sell at a fail
figure the Trustees will proceed to build

A BAD BILL

Rat printing is again in evidence in
the Legislature with a bill to let out
the county printing to the lowest
bidder, thereby enabling every tramp
pr 1ter who hits a town with a Wash
inp ton hand press and 4 hat full of
old type to bid on the county printing
The various legislatures have cut
down the legal rates of printing I'M
til there is no a newspaper plant in
the State paying fair interest on the
ms ney invested, and this bill simply
places what little money there is in
official printing at the mercy of ire
sponsibIe men who will do the work
for nothing in order to spite some pub
lisl:er. 1t means a reduction of
printers wages all over the State.
A sample of the way such a bill
would operate a be found in the
case of the Reno Plaindealer. The
last time county printing was let out
to bidders in Washoe county the
Plaindealer, a weekly paper, got the
contract. The publisher believed he
COZ Id make money at the rate he bid,
but lost money from the start and his
pa, er went to the wall, Had he
been possessed of a practical knowl-
eds e of printing and the cost of doing
county work he would never have
made such a bid.
The APPEAL holds that men who
ale not practical printers are not
qualified to legislate On that ques-
ton. The legal rates of official print
ing have been steadily cut down by
the legislatures until they are now
lever than ever in the history Of the
State.
Why is it that a legislative body
that has declined to rcIHIe rates fo1
corporations, making miIiIons of dol
lars profits yearly, will jump onto the
publishing and printing industry 0
the State, when they cannot point t
a single publisher in Nevada who
has made more than a bare living a
the business. Yet this bill is Calcu
lated to still further reduce the in

war. There is but little more actual
danger in these daily slaughters than

If these siaughters continue the
reputation earned by the American
soldiers at Santiago and FL Caney
will be dimned by their work in the
country about Manila. Their is no

and quinine tonic, and if it is cold
weather when you begin the cure take
codliver oil as well. If this is apt to

Walking is about the best exercise to
take, though riding and bicycling may
be INDUCED in when you are getting
better.
You must be careful to sleep on a
hard mattress; never on feather bed;
and you must also take care that your
pillows are not raised too much, as this
is apt to throw the head forward and
add to the rounded shoulders, instead of
making them any better. You must be
careful always to walk straight, and

straight forward on a level with your
eyes and never droop the head and go
through life looking for possible pins
on the ground.
On no account must you stoop over
your work or reading, as this is bad in
deed. If you are sewing you must sit
in low chair, and one that has a
straight back to lean against. If by
any chance you have to sit on high
clair ITO do your work you must see
that you have footstool. In writing
you should either sit at table which
is THE proper height, or you should al
ways use sloped desk, and in reading
never hold the book on your knee, but
hold it up and lean back or sit upright
while reading.
You should often hold your hands be-
hind your back and walk this way up

minutes at time when you have moth
ing better to do. You must also lie fiat
on a blackboard or the floor for several
hours a day. You should also practice
walking up and down the room with
book balanced on your head. This will
make you hold your head upright and
help to cure the ugliness of your round

FOR SLEEPLESSNESS.
A Good Cry May Perhaps Rightfully
BE Considered an Easy Cure
for Insomnia.

Medical science is rampant just now.
We have been told not to do so many
things that if we obeyed all our coun-
sellers we should be in perilous state.
The latest rmation-from a Russian
Goctor-is that we must not try to
blush, laugh or weep much, unless we
want to suffer from insomnia. His OBJ
servations have led him to conclude that
persons who do either of these three
things "easily" are more liable to sleep
lCssness than others.
should like to be told how we are to
help blushing. Is not the timid debu-
tante always asking that question, and
asking it in vain? And is she afflicted
by want of sleep? AS regards laughter,
I have observed that nervous people
often have bad night if they have
been tempted to excessive hilarity just
before bedtime, but as to the effects OF
weeping. | am not sure. 1t has been
said that the greatest sufferers from
insomnia are the people who rarely al
low themselves the relief of what we
call "a good cry" but rather let their
sorrows eat their hearts out in stoical
silence.
One does not lie awake brooding over
a trouble which may be soothed by
tears. But now let me give you brand
rev remedy for sleeplessness-new, at
least, to this country, for it comes from
the Samoan islands. The natives, when
inclined to be wakeful, get up and hunt
around until they find snake. Having
caught their soother. they confine him
in a hollow bamboo, when he emits a
Kissing sound, whch-so we are told
is unfailing in the inducement of sleep.
Here we have, l think, at last the an

SOURCES OF RUBBER SUPPLY.
New Fields Must Soon De Opened to
Meet the Rapidly Increas-
ing Demand.

The total amount of rubber that was
brought to the markets in the year end
ing June 80 last was 46,750 tons. OF
this amount Brazil produced 24,75o
tons, or little more than half the
entire supply. Africa's share was 49,
500 tons, leaving only 1900 tons to be
supplied by the rest of the world. In
dia furnished 495 tons and the balance
of the supply, 1,705 tons, from Cen
trail America and parts of South Amer
lea outside of Brazil.
When the export of rubber from Bra
iii began about so years ago, the guam
tity shipped in a year was only 495
tons. The British minister in Brazil
estimates that the area of rubber pro-
ducing territory in Brazil that is still
untouched amounts to 961,000 square
miles, or nearly third of the area of
the United States, exclusive of Alaska
The great difficulty in developing these
rubber regions is the scarcity of pop
ulation and the consequent necessity
of carrying food supplies everywhere,
In all the vast rubber regions of Bra
iii it is estimated that there are only
10000 inhabitants. The rubber dis
tricts that thus far have furnished the
supply are becoming exhausted and the
total production last year was less than
in the preceding year.
In Africa there WIS until recently
only one region which had been very
conspicuous as rubber producer. This
was the Portuguese colony OF Angola,
which in 1850 sent to the market 1 1928
tons. while the Gold Coast and Lagos
together furnished only 912 tons. In
that year the Congo basin appeared in
the market as source of supply. Its
progress since then has been rapid, and
in 1897 1,6oO tons were exported from
the upper Congo, though the rubber
had TO be carried long distance on
the heads of porters. The present
prospects are that the Congo will some
day be Brazil's nearest rival in the pro-
duction of rubber-N. Y. Sun.
