SAVE THE MINAH.
A Citizen of Olaa Writes of the
Lively Bird.

Editor p. G. An a recent issue of
your paper l notice a paragraph in be-
half of the mynah it being stated as the
opinion of the Secretary of the Board
Of Agriculture, Mr.. Clarke, that this
bird is of immense value to Hawaiian
agriculture. May l beg space for few
words confirmatory of Mr.. Clarkes
opinion. Since my stay in Hawaii l
have had excellent opportunities to OBJ
serve the habits of the mynah in the
coffee districts of Olaa, in Hilo and in
the adjoining sugar plantations, and l
feel sure that the benefits conferred by
the mynah far outweigh the injury il
does. The mynah prefers an open
country to forest and settled districts
10 the wilderness. 1t is therefore ex-
ceedingly abundant on the sugar plan
tations and in all pasture lands. If
anyone doubts the value Of the mynah
in such localities he has but to shoot
few and examine the stomachs. These
will be found crammed with insects,
most of which are positively injurious
TO the farmer and the cane grower.
On the other hand the orchardist and
the small fruit grower have room to
dislike the mynah for while they pro-
fit by the war it wages upon insect
pests they lose by its fOndness for
fruits, especially figs. So too there
seems to be just ground for complaint
against the mynah in Olaa where it is
generally believed, probably not with
out good reason, that the mynahs carry
into the coffee patches the seeds Of
Hilo grass and of other weeds. The
birds thus prove q serious nuisance
since they add materially TO the annual
cost Of wedding.
The course that naturally suggests
itself is to kill the birds where they
do injury and preserve them where
they are beneficial. In this connection
I may state that the dead bodies Of two
or three mynahs hung in fig tree
have a wonderful effect in destroying
the appetite for figs Of their Borrowing
relatives. The mynah is a knowing
cuss." as ARENAS Ward called the
crow, and is quick to read an object
lesson
In conclusion like every other bird
in its relation to agriculture the my
nah has good and bad traits, but l be-
Iieve with Mr. Clarke that when every
thing is summed up the balance will
be found to be largely in the bird $
favor and that, now it has been intro
dueed into these Islands it should be
preserved.
The selection of birds for introduc-
ton into these Islands is a matter that
should receive the most careful atten-
ton, and no species should be allowed
to be imported that has not been sane
! toned by authority.
Already several species have been in
/ PRODUCED that should have been most
carefully excluded.
/ Here an ounce of prevention IS worth
IAN unlimited number of pounds Of cure.

Why not generate your power from

Electric Power being used, saves the
labor Of hauling coal in your field, also

Clermond, in temporary command at
Augusta during the absence of General
Young, telegraphed the war depart
ment as follows:
about 100 members of the Fifteenth
Minnesota volunteer infantry started
for Augusta during the morning to
avenge the murder by a civilian of a
member of that regiment. The officers
of the regiment tried to stop them, but
failed. The rioters were arrested by
the Third cavalry and their arms taken
from them. They were brought back
to camp and are now under guard.

mander, has the matter well in hand
and all danger is apparently over"

AVenge u Comrades Death.
AUGUSTA, Ga, Feb. This has been
a day of wild excitement in and around
Augusta. The trouble arose over the
killing of Dennis O'Connell, Company
F, Fifteenth Minnesota, by Brown Had
ley, barkeeper. The difficulty began,
it is said, over profane language used in
the hearing of Hadley's wife. Many of
the soldiers of the Fifteenth Minnesota
swore vengeance. Shortly after break
fast about 100 of the men made plans
for the capture of the murderer. The
enlisted men had no ball cartridges for
their rifles, but going to the regimental
company store they took pickaxes and
broke open the ammunition cases, each
man taking about 90 rounds Of ammuni-
ton. The news soon reached General
Sumner, the commander of the First di-
vision of the Second army corps, and he
Ordered Out the Third Cavalry,
the Tenth Ohio and Thirty-ffth Michi-
gan regiments. The men were deployed
as skirmishers and the woods in the vi
cinity Of the camp were secured thor
oughly. 1t was some time before any
of the men who were breaking away
could be found, but about 1870 Troop
A, under command of Lieutenant Haw-
kins, found the entire lot, about 80 men,
entirely armed.
They were taken to division headquar-
tiers and put under guard. General
Sumner issued orders that all passes
should be confscated and that no more
be issued. The ringleaders were put in
irons. The military authorities refuse
to give the names of the men under ar
rest.
Hadley gave himself up to the author
tiles and was taken to the Atlanta Jail.
