 THE STOCK MARKET
Morning Gains Wiped Out in the After


 New York, June 12.-The stock mar Set fell into semi stagnation during the latter part of the day and the gains which were established in the morning were pretty generally wiped out under the dribble of selling orders which came upon a market almost bare of demand | There were various points of strength | the day, but they lost their influence in sustaining prices. The more cheerful feeling in London this morning was quite a noticeable influence in the open ing dealings Rumors have been very persistent for several days now that peace is approaching in South Africa. To appreciate the importance of an ad- justment of the long -dra wn-out strug- gle there, that is, for the world of cap ital, it must be borne in mind what enormous demands the British govern ment makes on accumulated capital for the conduct of the war as well as the absolute cutting off of an important proportion of the worlds gold product while the war lasts The large dis bursements by the government on war account, combined with transfers of Russian deposits from Paris, Is what has given the London money market it's present ease and has led to some expectation that the governors of the Bank of England will further reduce the minimum discount rate at to-mor- rows weekly session. A ten per cent. installment, amounting to $50 ,000 of subscriptions to the new consol issue. is due on Tuesday next, June IS, and the demand for money which will re- suit is a factor against the reduction in the bank rate.

 almost impossible to avoid losing ones

 them and soon find that it is again and again intercrossed, like the meshes of a net If you cannot speak enough Arabic to ask the way, you wander on, getting more and more hopelessly mud dled-and probably find yourself pres ently in a blind alley, which is private property, where an Arab family Is en- toying it's couscouss in the open air, Retreating hastily with apologies which are of course not understood, you follow the miracles of some other little street--and perhaps blunder into court startling a beVy of yelled la dies, who scamper off With shrieks, through fear ot the LNlI Eye, which all ''infides" are balived to carry abou& with them equipped with baleful power to turn on true believers; or else you risk your precious life in violating the sanctity of some wayside temple, by ignorntly placing a sacreligious foot upon the secred mat.

After one of the best trips on record

having been made by the Marion Chill
cot in about 81 days.
Good weather was experienced dur
ing the latter part of the trip but the
weather was rough after leaving New
castle. On August Z, a hurricane struck
the vesse and ripped all of her canvass
away, the vessel loosing the entire suit
of sails This occurred in latitude "a
degrees 10 minutes south and longitude
155 degrees 20 minutes west. The gale
lasted but a short time and after that,
the vessel had no further trouble. She
stood over by Tahiti but did not make
that island.
The Palmer is the same vessel which
turned turtle in San Francisco bay
about three - four years ago. The ac-
cident was a very peculiar one and was

FIERCE RANAKUADROUEHT
HORSES AND CATTLE BEING SENT
AWAY,
Scarcely ENOUGH Water for Domestic
Purposes-Brackish Water Used for
Drinking Purposes.

The Hilo Tribune of August 80 pub
fishes the following account of the
drought in Hamakua:
Paauhau plantation has had no rain
since the 2Sth of April, but they still
have enough water for household pur-
poses. The stock have been drinking
brackish water for three months and a
half. The fire is all about the plantation
in the government forests but has not
touched the cane as yet. However the
cane has got so dry that Mr.. Glib be-
gan grinding next years crop on last
Wednesday.
The condition of Kukaiau grows
worse. On Tuesday the Horners' sent
sixty-one head of horses into Hilo be-
cause the water supply was so low
They are in Mr.. McKenzies care and
are being pastured on the beach near
the Waiakea bridge. They also sent In
one hundred and fifty head of cattle on
Wednesday. Many cattle have already
died from thirst and the condition of
the rest is pitiable. Water for house,
hold purposes is hauled from Paauilo
since the spring Is almost dry, and
what little water there is left is used
by the Japs. The forest fires still rage
at intervals from Kukaiau to Waimea.
principally on lands leased from the
government So fierce are the fires
to a depth of several feet. At times
they die down only to be revived by the
return of the trade winds and then the
country is pervaded with smoke. No
attempt has been made to fight the
fires except where they have threatened
the cane. Even then they are not al
ways successful, and Ookala and Ku-
kaiau have suffered heavily from fires
in the cane. Strange to say 1t is cool
er in Hamakua than in Hilo which is
probably owing to the stron~ trade
winds. 1t has been very cloudy at
times, and clouds that at any other
time would deluge them with rain.
One day last week Fred Carter, the
manager of Sam Parker's ranch, and
his men had to fight the fire at Hanai-
poi. So far the Parker ranch has not
lost many cattle as they have quite a
little water coming down from the Ko-
hala mountains.
At Paauilo they had .O5 of an inch of
rain one night last week, but in the
present condition it was but a drop in
the bucket. The spring there is very
low as it is not only used by the Pau
! lilo plantation but Kukaiau has been
hauling water from there. The Pau
iloites have bored a we'll close to the
cliff and are using the water for drink
ing purposes Notwithstanding that 1t is
brackish. They report that sometimes
the water is almost fresh and again
very salty. Paauilo plantation began
to grind three weeks ago in order to
save the young cane. Many of the fam
lilies are sending their washings to Ho-
nolulu and a few send to Kukuihaele
The Japs have been hunting for water
holes in the gulches where they could
do their washing.
There is no water in Kukuihaele ex-
gulch.
Honokaa had one inch of rain a week
ago Monday, but at Paauhau, mile
away, there was no rain at all.

Oui, Oni, Monsieur.

When a man is the victim of a
circumstance that has tendency
to blight his life for time, he
is about the last person on earth
to relate his experience. A gen
tleman who visited the Paris ex-
position last year recently told
of an amusing experience he had
in "Gay Paree." While passing
along the street one day he con-
oluded that he had better get
shaved. Accordingly he en-
tered the first barber shop he
came to and took a chair.
While arranging the pre1ini-
naries for 'skinniAg' the barber
harangued Our fellow-townsman
with LOT of unintelligib1e sgib-
berish." Our citizen, not car
ing to admit that he did not un-
derstand French, vigorously re-
sponded "oui, oui, monsieur" :"
when the barber concluded his
remarks. The barber then
touched a call-be11 and ia a me-
ment a Number Of singing girls
appeared on the scene. During
the time he was getting shaved
he was entertained with music,
both vocal and instrumental.
Paris stock went up in the esti-
nation Of the Corvallisite, and
he made up his mind that a
Parasian barber was the "real
thing, The barber was very
polite in his attentions and our
friends heart warmed up con-
siderable. SO much, in fact, that
when he got ready to leave the
shop he handed the tonsorial
artist franc Geo cents), despite
the fact that the price Of shaving
was only about 10 cents. Then
the barber waxed violent and
demanded go francs. Our towns
man understood just Frerch
enough to know that this was

vain and he paid the bill rather
than take a chance On his anat.

Three Questions.

Before purchasing piano or organ
there are few questions it is we'll to
consider. First: Is the instrument made
to use or simply to sell? Second: Ii
the the tone, action and finish first class ]?
Third: Is the price reasonable? Chesp
instruments are expensive at. any price.
Why? Because they never give 'satis-
faction, being constructed of the cheap
est material hastily thrown together.
To secure the value of your money there
is one certain way. Buy an instrument
which has not only an established repu-
tation for years, but which has kept up
with every Improvement of medern
times. IF you then would like such an
instrument with tone, action and fn-
ish unsurpassed, have them, and can
furnish you any at the lowest price.

Defends the Doctor.

We recently noticed in ar
Oregon newspaper statement
that prominent farmers of Clack-
amas county have criticised DR..
Withycombe's objections to the
summer-fallow system which
prevails in the Willamette Val
ley. AH examination of the
criticisms offered shows that
they were the result of not know
ing the position taken by DR..
Withycombe. If these farmers
would arrange for institutes in
the neighborhoods in which they
live, and get DR.. Withycombe
to come and have friendly dis
cussion> on the question with
them, they would find that he
dees not dispute the claims they
make for the summer-fallow
system, bat points out the ulti-
mate weakness of the system,
and advises the adoption of a
system which will proye at least
equally as effective in imme-
diate results upon the yield of
grain crops and at the same time
keep up the supply of humus ia
the soil and maintain permanent
ly its productiveness. The bare
summer-fallow acts upon the
land as a stimHlant. It increases
the yield of the following crop,
but it does SO at great sacrifice

soil. Rural Northwest.
