The great interest in technical high

William calls attention to the fact that
for some years Germany has led the
world in manual training schools. As
a result OF this training Germany has
been transformed from an almost
purely agricultural country to a great
manufacturing and industrial CON-

Discovery 100 Years Ago.

Its Wonderful Developments Since Its
Discovery 100 Years Ago.
More than 100 years ago Baron Hum
boldt discovered the dahlia, small.
single flower, in Mexico, says the Lon
don Globe. Could some prophetic
vision have revealed to him the dahlia
of today in its dazzling hues and varied
forms he might, perhaps, have been
prouder Of that discovery than OF all
his other scientific achievements. It
was sent by him to the Botanical gar
dens, Madrid. where it received the
name OF dahlia, in honor OF the botap-
list. Prof. Andrew Dahl. The same
year It was introduced into England,
where 1t was cultivated under glass.
For a few years 1t was lost to cultiva-
ton, then reintroduced into England.
Cultivation soon developed the double
form and every color except blue. For
many years the ideal dahlia Of the cul-
tivators was a perfectly double. ball
shaped flower. Those who remember
the compact flowers Of thirty or forty
years ago knew how nearly that ideal
was realized, and remember the de-
served popularity Of the dahlia OF that
day. But people soon tired OF the regu-
larity of that type, and for few years
1t was neglected. Florists were giving
time and labor and thought to the de-
velopment of the rose, carnations
chrysanthemums and other popular
flowers. At last some far-seeing cui'
tivator recognized the possibilities o.
the dahlia, and in new. improved ant

HIS ANSWER
A Reply To Suit For an
Injunction.
THE KING STREET ROW

Is in Interest of Rapid Transit
Company.

In the answer Of the Hawaiian Tram
brought by j. a. McCandless. Superin-
tendent of Public Works. to restrain the
company from doing further work on
King street, which was filed late yester
day afternoon together with an affidavit
By Manager Pain, IL is charged that the
Beard of Public Works brought the suit

rival road the Honolulu Rapid Transit
Company. and that the Tramways COM
pany would never have been interfered
Young, the then Minister of Interior. had
not been a stakeholder in the Rapid Tran
sit Company
The answer is a lengthy document con-
sisting largely of general denial of the
allegations in the complaint. 1t denies
that the track in question. II constructed
and maintained as begun. makai of the
main track. would cut off, block OF in
tercept any other tramway from the use
of King street. or that II was attempted
to be laid for that purpose. The company
asserts vigorously that it's right to the 10
cation OF tracks on King street is supe-
rior to that Of any rights acquired by any
other company. and IL alleges that the
Jill of complaint filed by the Superin-
tendent of Public Works was filed in the
interest of the Honolulu Rapid Transit
Company, a rival corporation
The claim is made that the company
simply intends to complete its switch on
King street between Alakea and Fort
streets with Its main track. but says that
IL has the perfect right to double track
al OF Its lines on all the streets traversed
by IL. although IL does not propose to do
so at the present time. Together with the
answer there was filed the affidavit OF
Manager w. n. Pain, setting forth all OF
the much quoted correspondence between
the Hawaiian Tramways Company and
Minister OF the Interior Young, relative
to the work on the King street loop last
January.
/ The affidavit further states that no oh.
lection was made to the laying of the
contested switch until Alexander Young

ment on the stock of the company and
the suit was brought by the stockhold-

sary in organizing the company and

ROUNDING THE CORNER.
Intersection Of King and Richards
Streets To be Changed.

Superintendent of Public Works Nc
Candless has hopes that the suggestion
of Surveyor Wall to round off the cor
ner of the Capitol grounds at the cor
ner of King and Richards streets will
be put into execution at an early date.
On Monday after the meeting of the
Governors council two or three MEM
bers went over the matter with Mr..
McCandless who explained the advan-
tages of the three radii already staked
out inside the corner of the Capitol
grounds by Mr.. Wall.
The gentlemen were of the opinion
that such a cutoff would be a marked
improvement to- the street intersection
at that point. So far the idea has ap-
pealed favorably to those who have
gone into the matter
