VERY low VALUATION

The case for the government in the
Pearl Harbor land suit against the
Bishop estate is nearly in now, and the
defense Will begin early next week. The
witnesses for the government have
placed valuations on the land in dispute
which are much below the $50 an acre
for which the defendants offered the
land to the government, witout the
waterfrontage. So Tar no estimate has
gone over S25 an acre for the whole
The case is being watched closely by
the attorney for the other defendants
as ii is felt that the verdict in this suit
viii set a standard that will show them
what To expect
f. Il. Archer, deputy assessor at EVA
and Waianae, testified that IS an acre
was fair value for the land east of the
railroad, while on the west side the land
was worth $50 an acre. He said on
cross-eXamination that such land would
rent for $3.50 to so an acre. He said on
land. The witness admitted however
that he knew of a recent lease by Sam
Damon of large tract to the Honolulu
Sugar Company for 500 an acre. He
valued this land at $50 an acre.
A. Herbert, former agricultural COM
missioner was called, but said that
though he had good deal of knowledge
of the land, he did not feel able to es-
He was asked to make an examination
and will be recalled to the stand on
Monday.
Captain Pond, of the Iroquois, was
called next He testified that as agent
for the government for the purchase of
the land he had tried to make agree
ments as to the price, but had not been
able to do so. He described the land in
detail, and expressed the opinion that
Kauhua island was of little value for
commercial purposes. His examination
will be resumed on Monday.
Judge Estee ruled during the proceed
ings that Hawaiian statutes fixed the
value of land for condemnation pur-
poses at not more than 20 per cent
above the assessment valuation. This
rule strictly construed, would make the
price to be paid very small indeed be-
ing less than 81 per acre. The Judge
stated however that he would construe
the law literally and would allow tes-
timony to counterfeit such a valuation.

BANDIT ULTIMATUM
STONE EPISODE COMING TO A
CRISIS.
The Ransom Money is Ready and Ban
dts Must Deliver Up Miss Stone
Within Ten Days.

SOFIA, November 22.-Mr. Dickin-
son, the diplomatic agent here of the
United States started today for Con-
stantinople, there to confer with Spen-
Ger Eddy, secretary of the United States
Legation as to the best means of hast
ening solution in the deadlock which
has arisen in the negotiations over the
release of Miss Stone. Mr.. Dickinson
Will probably return here bringing
with him the cash with which to pay
Miss Stones ransom, as her kidnappers
insist that the payment shall be made
in Turkish gold.
Mr. Dickinson is considering the ad-
visibility Of presenting an ultmatum
to the brigands, in which he will fix ten
days as the period within which 10000
must be accepted by the brlgands as
Miss Stones ransom. If this proposal
is not accepted by her captors all deal
ing with the bandits so far as the
United States is concerned, will cease
If these conditions have not already
been dictated by Mr.. Dickinson, the
ultimatum comprising them will almost
certainly be delivered as soon as the
American diplomatic agent returns
from Constantinople.
According to information here both
Miss Stone and Nine. Tsilka continue
in good health. They are concealed in
a large village near DubnitZa, whittier
they were taken blindfolded, and where
only rude comforts are obtainable. A
later report, however, according to the
statement of person who arrived from
Dubnitza last night, is that the captives
have been removed from a village near
DubnitZa to a point near the frontier,
and that Miss Stone got wet while
crossing the River Struma.

FLEETING TIME

will! soon have brought US new year.
Our days are passing away rapidly. When
will the last hour come? Soon this dread
query shall be answered, only too soon /!
But too soon, bysfar, for the many beings
who, through ignorance or stupidity, are
watonly shortening their lives. Our bod
lily functions, provided we are in heath,
take their natural course. Should, on the
other hand, these functions be disturbed,
then we become ill. In their ignorance, a
great many persons, by over-eating, over
eating, over-exercising, or lack of bodily
exercise, interrupt the even tenor of these
functions and make themselves sick.
Then to their first folly they.add the sec
ond. They either, needless of their SYM
toms, continue their toll. their mode of
living, or they confide in some quack. Are
not such people suicides? Are they not
wantonly Shortening their lives? Most as
sured1y. And the ma jorily of such suicides
is recruited from those who take no heed
of the diseases of the stomach, the liver
and the Kidneys, instead of curing such
insidious ills in their first stages with that
most sovereign remedy of natures dis
pensary-the renowned "St. Bernard Veg
able til1s." Headache. dizziness, palpi
tation of the heart, etc, should cause you
to have immediate recourse to the incon1-
parable sanative powers Of these purely
vegeta BILE pills, so as to protect you from
becoming a suicide!

A poor mplexion is usually the result
of a torpid liver or irregular action of the
bowels. Unless natures refuse is carried
of it will surely cause impure blood. PIN
pies, boils and other eruptions follow.
This is natures method of throwing off
the poisons which the bowels failed to re-
move. DeWitt's Little Early Risers are
world famous for remedying this condi-
ton. They stimulate the liver and pro-
mote regular and healthy action of the
bowels but never cause gripping. cramps

The CuhanS to Confer.

A committee of members of the Ha-
vana constitutional convention is to
come to Washington to consult with
the President in regard to the terms
offered by this country to Cuba. This
shows CLEAN of returning reason am
ong the ilambIG of tina. Lody. Ac-
C''rd.rg to 'olnc of the stories from
Havana rccertly number of the n an
hota of tie cN stitutional convention
are hostile to Gov. Gen. Wool. and
they are unwilling to treat with tho
United States through him Another
story has been that they were urNill-
ing to make any sort Of terms at all
with the United States which di not
recognize their complete ard inneli
vision by this country.
But the selection of committee to
consult with the President in Wash
ington shows that the impracticables
in the convention have been overruled
temporarily or permanently. The COM
mittee is to discuss the Platt amend
ment with the President. which is an
indication that they know the terms
which they will have to accept are out
lined in that measure. This simplifie5
the situation for the United States and
for Cuba, but there are certain require
ments to which they, in their own in
terests, and in that of the United
States and of civilization, will have to
conform, and these are epresented in the
Platt statute with tolerable clearnesA
and fullness.
The situation ought to be plain to the
Cubans by this time. If the Platt meas
ure be rejected, the conditions in the
island will remain unchanged until
after Congress meets next December,
the American authority being supreme,
as now. Congress will not be called in
special session to deal with the Cuban
question. The matter simply will have
opening of Congress next winter,
Then the Platt measure will either be
repassed or something a little more
drastic will be enacted, perhaps the
latter. In the meantime American
authority will continue to be supreme
in the island and will remain supreme
until a settlement is reached on Am
erican lines. If the Cubans are still in
ignorance of this situation it will be
made plain to them soon after they
reach Washinton.

l.. Johnson has been deluged with in
quiries as to his future political de-

are from admirers and perhaps the
greater number are from people in

The story so widely circulating, that
Mr.. Johnson and Senator Hanna would
be the candidates for the presidency

might well be applied to the business
