Tho Oldest Tree on Earth.

The oldest tree on earth, at least as
far as any one knows, is the +
in the sacred city Of Amarapoora. Bur-
ma. 1t was planted, the record says,
in the year 2SS B. G. Its great age is
proved according to historic docu-
ments, says Sir James Emerson, who
adds: "To it kings have dedicated their
dominions in testimony of a belief that
it is a branch Of the identical fig tree
under which Buddah reclined at Urum-

pilgrims as relics: but, as it is too sa-
cred to touch with a knife. these leaves
can only be gathered after they have
fallen.

No man b better able to determine the

experience the following ration will
keep the average dairy COW up to the
limit OF her ability: Twelve pounds of
timothy OF upland hay. three pounds Of
cornmeal, Eve pounds of ground oats.
nine ounces OF ground lax. eight pounds
Of alfalfa. ten pounds of corn fodder,
eight pounds OF mangeis. This Is more
than Is recommended as q standard ra-
ton. but IL she eats it you get the re-
turns. 1t il well to bear in mind that
the food capacity Of a dairy cow Is an
important factor. Another important
factor Is salt Have plenty of 1t where

SHERIFF
GOES RAIDING
Falls Down a Trap Door and
Arrests Fourteen Gamblers.
The Russian Finn Again.

Deputy Sheriff Chillingworth and .
posse made raid in a notorious Chi
nese gambling joint on lower King
street on Saturday night.
In the corner of the ground floor of
store was an innocent looking trap
door, which was securely fastened.
From below came the sound of click
ing dominoes, a sure sign that a PAL
kau game was in progress.
The proprietor of the store was in
structed to open the trap door, but
was very reluctant to do so. After a
little pressure, however, he gave the
open signal to those below by shuf-
fling his feet in a peculiar way on the
trap door. Almost Immediately the
door was pushed up, and the police,
headed by Chillingworth, made a rush
down the stairs and into the basement
The deputy sheriff misjudged the dis
tance and fell to the ground, falling
fifteen feet and injuring his left wrist,
which is just recovering from pre-
vious accident sustained in raid.
rapid descent the gamblers made an
effort to conceal their stakes. but the
deputy was too quick for them, and
S8 were secured to be held for evidence.
Fourteen arrests were made.
Three or four of the players rushed
to beds in the room, and drawing their
mosquito nets down, simulated sleep.
They were not quick enough to escape
observation, however, and were placed
under arrest with the others.
Later in the evening another trap
door, establishment was visited. but
the game was not running. In both
places the doors were most ingenfously
arranged, with numerous exits. all of
which led by devious paths to the
street. 1t was impossible to enter with
out giving the countersign from above,
and the gamblers were practically safe
from interference.

HUNTERS TAKE
BIG BAGS OF GAME
Deer Shooting on MoIokai which
Proved Successful Many
Quail.

Twenty-six deer, several boars. several
gross of birds and other small game in
addition composed the bags taken during
their stay on Molokai by a party of
sportsmen who returned to the city Fri
day evening. The party was composed
of Edgar and Frank Halstead, Harry
Wilder and R. w. Shingle. Their stop
was made at Kaunakakai where the par
ty proceeded Immediately from the land
ing to the mountain, going a mile beyond
the ranch house, where the hunters of
goats and deer make their headquarters,
and pitching their camp.
They were taken in hand by William
Myers and his sons, who took the hunt
ers to the Myers lands, which are closed
to sportsmen generally. The hunters
were provided with horses, and went out
to the hunt at once they found them
selves settled. The first days sport was
the best. With seven men in the party
eight deer and one boar were taken, the
honors being divided. The camp being
in the rain belt 1t was moved down to
the ranch the next day, and from that
time the hunting was done from that
point. There was daily shooting, and the
men got all they wanted in the way of
both the big and small game. The only
shortage in the supply was in the matter
of the plover, which are not yet up. The
quail shooting was of a high class.
The last day before the sailing was CIV
en- over to this sport, and some large
bags were taken. The best was that
made R. w. Shingle, who secured some
FIVE dozen birds. This made up for fail
ure to get a deer. The best bag Of deer
was that of Frank Halstead, who took
seven, Edgar Halstead coming next with
five. Two of the deer were four-prong
bucks, and the antlers will adorn lanais
as soon as they are mounted. The deer
are reported fine, though not in such
great numbers as formerly.
