Coop for Young Chicks.

A model coop for the hen and young
chicks may be constructed at practi-
cally no cost by taking an ordinary
soap or canned goods box, and saving
out an opening in end large enough to
admit the hen. In front of this con-
struct slat coop about three or four
feet square, so that the hen may come
from the box and have the freedom of
the coop as desired. The chicks will
pass in and out of the coop and will
forage around for quite distance,
but will promptly run to shelter at
the first approach of danger.
The drinking water cup and the feed
box should be placed on outside of the
slat coop, as otherwise the hen will
scratch them over. Laths, if con-
venient, make splendid material for
the coop, two-inch scantling being
used for the corner posts, and one
inch strips for two top sides. on which
to nail the top laths. OF course, if
we do not object to cost. nice little
houses, with sloping roofs, may be
made, but for all practical purposes,
the common square box will fill the
bill, and We can raiseiust as many and
just MS healthy chicks in this way as
with the more elaborate outfits.
Don't fancy that the chicks will
grow faster if allowed to roam all over
ten acre lot with the hen. They
will not, and the danger of having
them caught in rainstorm OF drenched
in the early morning dews is over
come when the hen is thus confined,
Six or eight weeks of this confine-
ment will not injure the hen, by
which time she will have begun to
lay and the chicks will be large enough
to hustle for themselves. Home and

Model Creamery Butter Maker.

The butter maker is an important
person. A good butter maker is rare.
He is hard to get and hard to keep.
He must be skilled in all the practical
details and also in all the science of
butter making. He must be able to
make butter if it is necessary and un-
ierstand all the scientific processes
involved in the manufacture. In ad-
aition he must have tact, that is, the
art of rubbing people the right way.
Few positions call for more patience
and politeness. He must be able to
ignore complaints which are constant
y coming to his ears. He must be
able to politely but forcibly point ont
to the careless patron that he must
use more care in producing his milk.
Above all, he must be honest and
progressive. Conservatism will not
answer in the modern dairy. The
conservative is the man who hides in
the bushes until the fighting is over
and then comes out and does the
shouting after the victory is won.
Primarily, he must insist upon clean
liness in every particular, not only in
the creamery but at the homes of the
patrons. He must be an upright man
who is valuable addition to any COM
munity, for he will be more or less in-
timately associated with the people of
the neighborhood. ID. Van Wagner
in an address before the recent New
York state dairy meeting.

MAUI MILITARY COMPANY
QUITE A BIG ONE ORGANIZED AT
WAILUKU.
Captain Cottrell Enlists Seventy Men
and Asks to be Mustered Into the
National Guard.

Wailuku will have a military COM
pany. An application has already come
down, showing about seventy sigma
lures. This company has been talked
of for some time. Its personnel is that
of the Citizens Guard companies which
were disbanded. The labor troubles of
the past Summer have, in the opinion
of Maui peonle, accentuated the need
of some military force behind the po-
lice. The new company will be Com
pany l.
1t is understood that Captain c. B.
Cottrell is the leading spirit in organ
izing the new company on Maui. 1t will
be remembered that Cottrell was COM
mander of Company b here until he
went to Maui a few months ago. He is
a thorough military man and can be de-
pended upon to make Company l what
it should be.
There are a number of old National
Guardsmen in and around Wailuku
who are concerned in the new organi-
zation. James N. K. Keola was a SER
geant in Company G; w. H. Cornwell,
Jr., was in Company d and there are
twelve or fifteen others from the vari-
Gus city elements.
Colonel Jones and High Sheriff Brown
are both pleased at the prospect of a
company at Wailuku. They feel sure
it will conduce to good order on the
island and that there will now never
be any need of sending police or mill
tary assistance over there from Homo
lulu.

WILL EINE IHE parents

The big iron buildings and new
grounds of the Honolulu Iron Works at
Kakaako have become the resort of a
lot of youthful wharf rats, who keep
out of school and out of the reach OF
their parents by staying there day and
night. Led by David Kaapa some po-
lice officers made raid on the place
the other night, but they carried Ian
terms and the boys got away
This morning three of them who
We're caught yesterday were before
Judge Wilcox charged with truancy.
None of them had been at school this
term and one has made two previous
police court appearances. In another
of the cases a letter from a teacher
was given to the court complaining to
the truant officer. The Judge remark
ed that it was rather late to complain
now, near the end of the term
John Makuaole, Kekua and Joseph
Kopia are the three would-be wharf
rats. Kekua shed floods of tears as
he stood in front of the judge. Makua-
ole's mother appeared before his hon
or and said that going 90 school made
her boy have fits, but that his health
was good as long as he played on the
wharVes. The other boy had never
been to school.
The three homeless youngsters were
sent below for another day, while the
police find their parents, and the cases
will come up again tomorrow morning.
Judge Wilcox intimated that he
would fine the parents instead of send
ing the children to the reform school,
if it be found that the fathers or moth
ers did not look after sending their off
spring to school. The law provides that
in such cases the parents or guardians
are to be punished by fine. The father
of Kekua was in court this morning
but did not come forward when his boy
was examined. He was called up after
wards by the Deputy Sheriff and told
the court that he sent Kekua to school
every morning, but didn't know wheth-
er ne went or not

EDMUND HART FINED S25
APPEARED IN COURT WITHOUT A
COAT ON.
Judge Humphreys Feels Insulted to
the Extent of Two and a Half Eagles
and Levies Punishment.

Edmund II. Hart, stenographer and
secretary of the Democratic Central
Committee, was fined $25 by Judge
Humphreys this morning for appearing
in court without his coat on.
When court opened Hart was sitting
on one of the two benches in the rear
of the court room. He was in his shirt
sleeves, a la Testa. The eagle eye of
Judge Humphreys soon detected the
man and the omission. Hart was called
up given a brief lecture and fined the
sum mentioned.
1t is understood that Hart did not
Intentionally commit the offence. His
idea was that the coat order applied to
the space within the railing and not to
the seats in the rear of the room.
Judge Humphreys coat order Is not
without precedent. A certain judge on
the mainland once tried it. One day
he discovered a coatless swain in his
court room and ordered him to go home,
get his coat and return. Three days
later the man reappeared. AS he hap
pened to be a witness the court was
angry and demanded to know the cause
of delay 1t turned out that the fell
low lived thirty miles away in the
country and it took him the three days
to make the round trip in his carry
all for his coat.
H. A. Bigelow, master has reported
on the accounts of the executors of
the will of the late George Lucas. Re-
commended that the same be approved
and the bonds cancelled. The accounts
began with 1892 when a debt and credit
inventory showed a balance of $49,-
075.32. The last accounts give credits
and debts as 12,46S.32 each.
7. r. Keyworth, executor of the will
of the late Eliza Luce, has filed his in

TWO CORONERS INQUESTS
ANOTHER NATIVE PROBABLY

Iokepa Passes Away in His Home
While Everyone Else There is Drunk.
Richard Brash.

Two coroners inquests are set for
this afternoon, one in the case of
Richard Brash and the other in the
case of a supposed victim of swipes,
a native named Joe Iokepa. The lat
ter died at his home on Liliha street
above School, after sickness following
a jag
The evidence in the case seems to
show that Iokepa passed away while
everyone in the house was drunk and
that a doctor was sent for after he
demijohn is the principal exhibit in the
case.
Iokepa lived with his daughter and
her husband. He worked on the Paci-
fic Mail wharf last week, when the
Doric was in port, and came home
drunk. For several days after this he
was sick, but he seemed to improve un-
til yesterday afternoon. when he be-
came delirious. The circumstances of
his last moments seem to reveal a
shockins state of affairs in his home,
for while the old man lay on his death
bed a swipes carousal absorbed the at
tention of everyone else in the house.
Soon after eight o'clock DR.. Herbert
was telephoned for and he went to the
place to find Iokepa dead. 1t is thought
that he was dead before the doctor was
sent for. The inquest will be held at
four o'clock this afternoon.
Richard Brash was a well known
printer. He was SO years of age and
had lived in Honolulu for many years.
He was found dead in his home in Ka-
ed this morning by DR.. Pratt indicated
that general debility was the cause of
death. The inquest began at two this

4 BIND MAN

Henry Maui. the blind native capita
list, has sworn to a warrant for the ar
rest of the young native boy who used
to lead him round town. The charge
is embezzlement. 1t is alleged that the
boy, who answers to the name of Wahi-
neaukai Hulilku, took a bill that Maui
had receipted, collected $40 on it and has
failed to turn in the amount to his en-
ployer.
Maui is a well known Hawaiian He
owns considerable real estate and is
rated as a capitalist Young Wahine-
aukai was employed by him as a guide
and to help him in his business, for
Maui had a good deal to look after, with
collection of his rents and other mat
ters.
Last month Maui had a bill of $40
against one Sing Chong for rent OF a
place owned by Maui. He sent his guide
to collect the money giving him re-
ceipted bill, so that he might satisfy
Chong. Wahineaukai took the bill ana
went away with 1t, and Maui has not
met him since. He met Chong, and
Chong flOurshed a receipted bill for the
$40. Though Maui did not see 1t he
knew Chong well enough to know that
1t was all right and he came to the
police station this morning with Chong
and swore out a warrant for Wahine-
aukai.
Haul is quite blind and there is likely
to be an interesting trial when the case
comes up in the police court, for he VIII
have some difficulty in Identifying the
young man who is alleged to have ac-
cepted the commission of guiding him
around in his helpless blindness and
who Is declared to have taken advan-
| tage of his condition to steal from him

BEES INVADE THE CITY
SWARM TO DRUG STORES AND
CANDY SHOPS.
Drive Men from Laboratories and Con-
fectionery Factories-Invasion Prob
ably due to the Lack of Flowers.
The bees have come to town.

The bees have come to town.
Due probably to the fact that at this
season of the year there are very few
flowers from which bees can extract
honey, they are swarming into the con-
fectiOnery stores, to the soda water
fountains and the drug stores in
search of sweets. The amount or loss
and Inconvenience they are causing is
surprising. s9H
A vagIant colony large in numbers
and vicious in stlngs came into town a
day or two ago and proceeded to make
the laboratory of the Hollister Drug
Company their headquarters. The la
boratory is situated on the third floor Of
the building. The bees, thousands in
number came in and settled wherever
there was anything sweet, on the
mouths of bottles, on test tubes or
where anything had been spilled or
dripped on floor or laboratory desks.
The employees were driven out, till they
rallied and began campaign of burn
ing buhach and other i'll smelling com
pounds. The bees did not retreat with
out a struggle however, and nearly
every emploYe has a circlet of bee
stings around his neck, just above his
collar and plenty more on hands and
face.
At Hart and Companys the bees took
possession of the candy factory, drove
everybody out and hold possession still.
All efforts to drive them out have so far
been Intellectual. A new factory is be-
ing fitted up in the basement protected
by wire netting and this will be used
until the invasion is over. In the store
and ordinary of Hart and Company,
the bees also came in swarms. But the
liberal and energetic use Of "tangle
foot" fly paper has kept their numbers
down so that they have not seriously
interfered with business.
At Benson, Smith & Companys and
at other drug stores and confectionery
establishments it has been the same.
Such invasions of bees is said not to
be unusual at this time of year. but this
is said to be the most serious ever eX-
perienced Perhaps the dry summer with
it's shortage of algaroba blossoms is ac-
countable for it. The bees have prob
ably been driven by hunger from the
country apiaries to seek the solace of
the drug stores and the candy shops.

termed, says that J. *. Kaulia does
not talk like a gentleman. In fact in
MS expressions of resentment against
Wha' he terms the "upDishness" Of the
lady in question, Kaulia uses a term
which the Princess says she has never
heard before and of which she scarcely
knows the meaning.
An injustice has been done me-"
said Mrs. Wilcox, by Mr.. Kaulia. He
says that | am getting "uppish." Why
1 don't know what he means by such
a term. | never heard Of it before.
When he says that l am putting on

tend the luau but he was there all
right. Some of the ladies asked him
VIZ ms Nilt 40 llOl Will lllltE anu ne
replied that she had not received an
| invitation. Why such a remark was
foolish. 1t was his own party, the
women's branch of the Home Rule
Party which was giving the affair and
he should not have stood on any such
cermony. As one Of the leaders he
should have taken his wife with him
and gone to the luau. Although the
luau was oiven in honor of Mr.. Will
coz neither he nor l received any invi-
tation.
The statement that the Queen did
not attend on my account or that I
sighted her in any way is untrue. L
did not invite her because l had no
thing to do with issuing invitations.
Mrs. Kuihelani as president of the wo-
mems Home Rule Party waited upon
the Queen and invited her to be pres
ent. The reason that Mrs. Kuhelani
went was because she was the head
of the society which was giving the
affair and l thought it would be the
proper etiquette for the invitation to
come from her. The Queen took cold
on the Laie trip and could not attend
but she sent her ladies and gentlemen
in-waiting.
