nerve tissues and fortifies the system
against the depressing after effects.
Our eight-year old son, Ralph, who
is naturally a delicate boy, had severe
attack of La Grippe last winter, and it
left him with severe cough. This
Wore on him so that his nerves became
seriously affected and we became
alarmed over his condition. He could
scarcely sleep an hour during the
whole night and was growing daily
weaker and weaker, when we took the
advice of 4 friend and bought him q

before the second bottle was gone he
was able to return to school feeling
cheerful and hearty as ever"

EPIDEMIC OF THIEVERY.
Japs Released From Restraint Of Con-
tracts Turn Migrants.

WAILUKU, August 4.-There has
been a great deal of thieVery and petty
larceny going on at various points in
Maui. 1t is laid at the door of the
idle and vagabond class of Japanese
laborers who have just been released
from the restraint of their contracts.
The Japanese themselves have been
the greatest sufferers so far, but it is
feared the depredations may extend to
others. Gambling and Illicit distilling
has also increased greatly.
HILO, August Puma and Olaa are
suffering a great deal now from thieves.
The coffee planters in Olaa report a
great many small larcenies. This is in
strong contrast with former conditions
when locks were unnecessary and keys
were never turned. The stealing is at
tributed to Japanese. In some cases 1t
is positively known to be they. 1t is
believed to be confined to the vagrant
element who have been released from
the restraint of their contracts and do
not comprehend just what their free
dom means.

GENTLEMAN FROM MIDWAY.
Chris Willis Reports Business Dull on
Gods Lonely Acre.

Chris Willis found business rather
dull at the Midway Islands, and was
glad to get home Sunday. He was over
there with the Iroquois as draughts-
man. He lost deal of flesh, but grew
a beard to make up for it. Somebody
says he bears a strong general resem-
blance to Svengali at the Orpheum.
Willis and Harvey will prepare the
charts to be gotten out by Commander
Pond. AS more than 10000 soundings
were made this will be no easy job, and
will take a great deal of time. They
will be given a room in the Survey
Office for their work.
On Sand Island the old house usually
occupied by shipwrecked parties was
found to be in a fair state. Near it a
flag pole was raised and flag put on it.

TO INSURE AGAINST STRIKES.
Mutual Protection, but Admit
 the Right to Strike. 4

Washington, Nov. GA number of Austrian manufacturers have formed an association for insurance against strikes, according to United States Consul Hossfeld at Trieste. 1t is the object of the association to indemnify It's several members for all losses sus- tained by them from unjust strlKes which may break out in their respect i've establishments.
 When strike occurs a committee will be appointed to investigate all the circumstances, and if the cause of the strikers be found to be just no in- demnity shall be paid.
 A similar insurance association, al- though on a smaller scale, is said to have been organized in Germany. Both the Austrian and German asso- citations, it appears, says Consul noss- field, recognize in principle the just ness of strikes which is in Germany at least an important concession to labor"

DISMISSED THE PETITION.
Refused to Order n Partial Di.tribu tioa of the Estate of Million
 nfre Davis. of Montana

Boston, Nov. 6.-Judge Grant of the Suffolk probate court yesterday dis missed the petition brought by II. A. Rootveny, asking for a partial dis tribution in Massachusetts of the es. late of the late Andrew J. Davis, the Montana millionaire, in accordance with the decree of the court in Mon. tana, which affirms compromise.
 Judge Grant said that it did not seem equitable at this time to grant the petition, since the application ap- peared to have been made with a view to evade liens filed in Montana against the interest of the petitioner and oth- CTS.
 MT. Rootveny's petition is only a side issue in an extended litigation over the estate of the dead mining king of Butte, which has been before the courts of Massachusetts and Mon- taRa for several years.
