NEW EXPRESS COMPANY.
Charter Is Issued BY Georgia secre-
tary of State to Incorporators.

Charter Is Issued BY Georgia Secre-
tary of State to Incorporators.
Georgia is to have a new express
company. A charter was issued at
Atlanta Tuesday by Secretary of State
Phil Cook to the Brunswick and Bir-
mingham Express Company, with
headquarters at Brunswick, Ga.
The incorporators Of the new COM
pany are those interested principally
in the new Brunswick and Birmingham
railroad, and it is presumed the new
exprsss company will begin it's bust
ness on that line The railroad is not
yet completed, but work on 1t is pro-
crossing rapidly, and it is expected it
will be finished within a few months.
But that the incorporators do not
intend to con1lne the new express COM
pany to that road alone is clearly evil
dent from the petition for charter. 1t
asks for the right to do business in all
of the states and territories Of the
United States, in Canada, Cuba, Porto
Rico and all of the West Indies, in
Mexico and Central America, and in
all the states and countries both of
North and South America. 1t may be
long time before the company
spreads out to cover all of this terri.
tory, but it has been given that privi-
lege in its charter.
The company begins with compar.
atively small capital stock of $4,000,
but is given the right to increase the
amount to $25O,OOO at any time the di.
rectors see fit to take such a step.

Consul Johnson, at Annoy, China, re-

statement is dated May 14th. He says
he has refused to permit Chinese steer

1.-THE spread of the plague during
the past ten days has been rapid and
the fatalities most appalling. 1t is i'm
possible to give approximately accur.
ate data, as the statistics are kept by
the officials. 1t is my opinion, based
upon the most reliable data from ma
tive sources, that during the week just
closed there were as many as one hun
dred deaths per day in Annoy and its
suburbs. The same condition of af-

Resultant From Patriotic FerVOr
In Celebrating the Fourth.
PRESENTED BY CHICAGO PAPER
Number Of People Actually Killed 10
Less Than Last Yesr, But Let
Of Injured Is consid-
erably Larger.

The Chicago Tribune In its issue Of
Friday presented reports from all over
the country showing the number Of
persons killed and injured as a result
OF celebrating the Fourth OF July.
The number Of actually killed is less
than last year, being nineteen against
thirty then, but the number Of injured
is considerably larger, the figures be-
ing 1,611 against 1925.
The real list of fatalities will, how
ever, not be known until the number
OF deaths resulting from lockjaw caus-
ed by toy pistol wounds comes in.
Last year in Chicago there were no
deaths reported on July 5th from toy
pistols, but before the month was out
twenty-five had died from the resulting
lockjaw and the remainder Of the coun-
try sent in equally fatal records.
Chicago last year had one death and
forty-two injured. This time no death
is reported, but there is list of 1O3
injured.
The number Of wounds from toy pis-
tolls, however, is limited to five, which
would indicate that the prohibition put
on that dangerous toy was at least par
TALLY effective.
OF other cities Philadelphia makes
the largest showing. 1t reports ITS
casualties Of every kind ard descrip-
ton and Cincinnati comes next with
$50. New York was singularly lucky,
being behind Chicago in the list of in
jured, but it had three deaths result
ing from an explosion of fireworks,
and New London had a premature ex-
plosion of cannon by which two more
were killed.
In Quincy, ILL.,, there was also ia
tally from a runaway caused by
horses becoming frightened at fire.
works, and there were a number Of in
juries in various cities growing out
of the same cause. In the list of fatal
tiles explosions of fireworks and the
careless handling of firearms caused
the majority Of the deaths, but over
one-third of the injuries were caused
by the careless handling Of fireworks,
especially skyrockets.
After fireworks comes the toy pistol
in the casualties list Two hundred
and forty-nine children were injured
by these toys" in various cities Of the
country and the question is now what
will the fatality list amount to?
By the premature explosion Of can
non in the hands of people who are not
accustomed to their use, in several
cases unfortunates lost hands and
arms. A lamentable case occurred in
small town in South Dakota, where
boy was instantly killed BIZ the explo-
sion of an anvil which was being used
in lieu of cannon.
The loss by fire resulting from the
careless use of fireworks or their pre-
mature explosion was less than in pre-
vious years, the fires as rule being
small ones and the damage light. In
the entire country from reports re-
ceived, it amounted to but little over
$4,000.

Mr., Post what the company would do
to end the strike and Mr. Post inform.
ed him that the company would make
no concessions whatever. Mr.. O'Con-
nell made no proposition, but return

ference to the strikers, who voted to
stay out until their demands are
granted.
Monday afternoon Mr.. Post sent a
letter to Il. }. Mulcahy, president OF
the local lodge Of machinists, notifying
him that any of the men applying for

Among the sugar plantations situated
upon the leeward side of the Island Of Ha-
wall, and adjacent to the village Of Kailua,
which is the shipping point, are the caLe
lands Oh the Kona Sugar Company, Limited.
The first cane planted upon portion OF
these lands was many years ago, the labor
from time Of planting to harvesting the cane
and grinding same being performed In
rather crude way and with primitive mills.
The first crop Of cane taken from these
lands by this company was in 1898, since
which time the area has been enlarged.
The total area of land lying within tho
radius of the company's holdings is some
1000 acres, of which area about go per cent
is adapted to the growing Of sugar cane.
At the end of the planting season the
company will have total area in cane of
24OO acres. For the 1902 crop there are 100
acres, a portion of which will be cut for
seed, while the 1908 crop will come from
1900 acres including rattoons. The 1901
seed was all tops and is excellent for plant
ing.
The lowest elevation that cane Is grown Is
600 feet, while the greatest elevation Is $500
feet. The character of the soil Is dark
loan, requiring considerable working up.

mauka lands below the 600foot level and
up to 300 feet are very rocky.
The work of blowing the lands Is per-
formed with ordinary plows and mules and
horses, of which there are some 100 head
on the place. Up to the present time por-
ton of the land has been fertilized to a lini.
tied extent, and where done the cane
shows remarkable growth. Most Of the
cane grown is under the cooperative syS.
tenn, the company giving the planters laud
free Of all membranes, the planters
bringing the cane to maturity for SO much
per ton of cane produced.
Up to the 1500.foot elevation the Lahaina
variety Of cane Is planted exclusively, but
above that point and up to an elevation CT
$500 feet the Rose Bamboo and Yellow
Caledonia are planted although the Rose
Bamboo appears to do the best.
