PUT II UP TO Governor
PLAN OF SENATE REGARDING
APPROPRIATION BILL.
Akina's Scheme Meets Favor in Upper
House, and Expense Bill May Go
Through Without Alteration.

1t is whispered among Senators that
when the upper house meets on Monday
all the salaries cut during the week
will be put back where they were and
that the entire appropriation bill will
be passed in precisely the condition 1t
was when it came from the Governor.
1t is stated that the nudge of Akina, in
the lower house, has made a deep i'm
preston upon the Home Rule Sem
ators.
The facts are these The Governors
estimates of expenses are nearly $780,
900 above the estimated receipts for the
coming period, and if the income tax
should be knocked out the stimates will
be S1.OOOOO over and above receipts.
Up to now-the Senate has tried to prune
down expenditures so as to bring the
budget below the estimated receipts.
Akinas idea, however, is to pass the
appropriation bill as it is and leave it
to the Governor to find the money with
which to meet expenses. In other words,
he would throw the balance of the res
possibility off on the executive.
a prominent Sena tor said last night:
THE thing has come up so suddenly
that l hardly know what my ideas are.
l am inclined, however, to accept it as
a good proposition. The Governor
would not give us time to work out our
tax and loan ideas, and has thrown off
upon us the job of covering a six-foot
man with a three-foot blanket. as it
We're. Yes. after further thought, l be-
leve we should return the appropria-
ton bill, approved, without a single
alteration. This will force the Governor
to give us another special session, whe-
Their he wants to or not. to consider tan
and money getting measures, and l an
sure if we had another two weeks or
the matter we would straighten it out
to the satisfaction of the whole coun-
try. 1t would have all been fixed at the
regular session if we had been allowed
little more time"
This view seems to be generally hello
among the Home Rulers and it need no
! be surprising if the plan is adopted
/ first thing on Monday.

NEGRO LABOR IS SCARCE
MIR. KNAPP SAYS ALL EMPLOYED
IN THE SOUTH.
Future Importations Into Hawaii Will
Be Attended with Difficulties-Pros-
perity the Cause.

j. F. Knapp, special commissioner for
the South Carolina Interstate and
West Indian Exposition, thinks that
Hawaii will in future experience great
difficulty in getting negro laborers from
the South. He says that not since the
war has there been so many openings
for labor In that part of the United
States and never before has as high
wages been paid as now.
During the past four years." says
Mr.. Knapp, the South has been re-
markedly prosperous. Factories by the
dozens and scores have gone up every
where, new mines have been opened and
the acreage of land in cultivation has
multiplied enormously. Money has
poured into the States down there and
is still coming.
Negro labor will be hard to get Cor
the first reason that plantation wages
are now more satisfactory. Darkies in
the country districts are better salts
fled than ever before. Another reason
is that the labor market has not kept
pace with the demand or in other
words, the establishment of new enter
prises has taken up all the surplus la
Dor and thousands of workmen are be-
ing imported from other States when
they can be found.
Ten years ago the cotton and other
factories i'm South Carolina and other
Southern States were operated by eX-
pert white labor from the New England
States. Not black was to be found in
any of these immense establishments.
Today the thing is entirely different
The laborers of New England, on ac-
count of the prosperity also obtaining
there, are getting higher wages at home
and are satisfied. Our new manufac-
tories being unable to entice them
South, have been obliged to cast about
for other help They fell upon the ne
gro and i'm the past two years have
brought him in by the thousands and
tens of thousands from the plantations
Today many factories and mining en-
terprises in South Carolina, Georgia,
Alabama and Tennessee are being ope-
rated with negro labor The result is
that there is not only not an overplus OF
labor in the South, but the South is
looking for laborers. l feel sure that,
except perhaps in rare cases, and in
isolated communities, the importation
of blacks to Hawaii will be attended
with many difficulties"

SRENADED BY CR|CKETS
FRISCO CUSTOM OFFICIALS IN
SORE STRAITS.
Enterprising japanese Tried to Intro
duce Singing Crickets in America
But Revenue People Held Shipment.

For several days strange musical
noises have been heard issuing from a
room in the Custom house. The music
is furnished by a novel chorus. which
is growing in numbers at the rate of
several thousand a day. Appraiser
John T. Dare is the impresario in
charge, and he controls the most unique
company of vocalists ever gathered to-
gether on the American continent
The Dare opera company is compos-
ed of thousands of small o~'ckets of
variety peculiar to the Orient and
known as the singing cricket" In
Japan these crickets are treated as
pets They are kept in cages and pro-
duce a quality of music peculiar in
tone, but pleasant to the ear and high
ly esteemed by the Japs. In the homes
of the country these crickets occupy
the place which in American homes
is taken by the canary bird.
In this country the singing cricket
has heretofore been unknown. Enter
prisng local Japanese recently con-
ceiVed that the Introduction of such a
novel insect in America would be likely
to prove the source of great profit. As
a consequence the last Japanese steam
er brought to this city 100000 eggs from
which in time were to emerge singing
crickets."
Unfortunately for the importers the
eggs did not get by the Custom-house.
Bug officer Craw was in doubt as to
whether the singing cricket would be
a desirable resident of the country or
not. Pending a determination of this
question the eggs were thrown into a
customs quarantine, which is still in
force. From the simple eggs have since
Matched thousands of the crickets, and
at the present rate of incubation not
an egg will be left at the end of another
two or three days.
The crickets of Japan are certainly
musical What the insects at the Gus
tom -house lack in size they make up in
vocal power. Appraiser Dare is de-
lighted and has so won the affections
of his musical congress that each day
he is favored with a special concert.
The status of the singine cricket as
an immigrant will be determined during
the coming week. The decision rests
with Professor Craw. Unless ii should
appear that the crickets are likely to
prove pest they will be permitted
to land.-San Francisco Chronicle.

TIME WAS UP. 1t Was Quit Coffee or Die.

When a woman is brought to the edge of the grave by poisoning from the drink ing of ordinary coffee day by day. and is then made a well woman by leaving 1t off. her experience Is worth something to others that are poisoned in various ways from the same habit.
 Mrs. Jeannette B. Brown, 100 Minor St., New Haven. Conn. says: -Four years ago my life hung on very slender thread with liver. kidney and heart trou- ble, and a very severe form of rheuma- tsm. I was confined to bed with hands. wrists, feet and ankles so badly swollen that they bore no resemblance to parts of the human body. I had frequent sinking spells from heart weakness when I was thought to be dying and sometimes thought to be dead. My doctor. one of the directors of the State Hospital, very successful man in his profession, told me to stop drinking coffee and use Postum Food Coffee, as he said coffee was the primary cause of my trouble
 took his advice at once and discon- tinued medicines. Slowly the swelling disappeared and the rheumatism left me. the sinking spells became less frequent. and I got out of bed and around the house. I was completely cured but it required some time.
 For the past three years I have been a perfectly strong, healthy woman. sleep well, with good appetite, good color, act i've, and energetic.
 If is a great pleasure to testify to Postum that has made me a well wom- an again. I have many friends here and in other parts of the State who are using ostum Food Coffee regularly, and know to their very great benefit.
