and 1900 the return was signed by j. 0.
Carter as treasurer of the Bsnop estate,
and he listed the same 1855 acres FOR
those years at 81, iSG, In 1901 the same
property was returned by +. S. Dodge as
land agent at Sl2,iS6 but the deputy as
SCISSOR at Eva raised the assessment TO
$4,000 From this the Bishop estate filed
notice of appeal and Assessor Pratt tcs-
titled that he refused to receive it, be-
cause the return had not been sworn to,
and sent back "A request that the trustees
consult the assessor at Eva for COM
promise. Subsequently this was done
and the assessment was agreed upon for
the present year at $4,000.
On cross-examination Mr.. Pratt stated
that he had II record of some of the
leases in his office. but did not know
whether the property In question was
now under lease to the Dowsett estate
! for $500 a year. Court adjourned at this
point until afternoon.
In the afternoon the examination of
! Mr.. Pratt was continued by Mr. Kinney.
! He was not allowed to answer the ques-
! ton as to whether the Dowsett estate
was paying taxes on that property, the
Court ruling that the amount of taxes
paid made no difference in the value of
| the land.
! F. *. Archer, deputy assessor for the
district of Eva and Waianae, was the
next witness, and testified that he had
! been holding that Office for six yeai y,
and was consequently acquainted with
I land values at Pearl Harbor. He thought

on the east Of the railroad while that
on the west side of 1t was worth so an
acre. On Cross-examina ton he said that
/ the average rental for cane land of that
nature was from $3.50 to $40 an acre. He
! admitted, however. that he knew of a
lease by Sam Damon of a large tract OF
cane land to the Honolulu Sugar Com
pany for 500 an acre, within the past few
months. Small tracts of land, he said
brought s25 to $50 an acre. He thought
the value of the Damon land to be about
$50 an acre.
A. Herbert, another expert, was next
called. He said he obtained his knowl
edge of cane lands from experience, anC
the fact that he was for a time Commits
sioner of Agriculture. He said he haC
shot birds over the land in question q
years ago, and had visited IL few
months ago again. When Mr., Dunn,
asked whether his examination was suff
cient for him to make an estimate as L,
the value, he said 1t was not. The wit

and requested to make an examination

Economy IS necdful just now, but the
Board of Health is rather OVERRIDING the
thing by allowing 1900 pounds OF poi
to rot on the Kahului wharf for lack Of
means to transport it to the leper settle

meantime. Proper transportation should

more than guess at its dimensions.
The waves had squared its -four sides
to a great extent, but above their wash
the berg was full of hills. valleys and
ravines. and II would have been impos-
sible TO cross 1t.
As there was no way TO dodge the
berg. we put out an Ice anchor and
made fast To drive with ii until an
opening should occur. The side on
which we We're was as straight up and
down as a wall, and. though the wind
was whistllng far overhead, 1t was
scarcely TO be felt on deck. We passed
n very quiet night, and soon after sun
rise next morning the captain ordered
me to take two men and pass over the
field ice and get view of the western
face of the berg. If ] found that 1t
could be done, was to Chamber up
and look to the north for clear water
As the great cakes of ice were wedged
together In the greatest confusion, our
pace was necessarily slow, and it was
a matter of two hours before we turned
the corner of the berg and lost sight of
the bark. ! judged the western face
to he mile long, but 1t was not as
steep as the southern. About midway
of its length we came to gully, up
which we toiled for matter OF 2oo
Yards. We then found our way blocked
by a cliff fifty feet high. 1t was cllt
of ice, of course. though here ana there
one could see n bowlder creeping out.
II was blue ice. almost as reflective
as mirror. and II would have turned
the edge of an ax like granite. We
stood staring and resting. hot enough
with our exertlons. when one Of the
sailors leaped aside and cried out

We had been driven below Cape
Horn hundreds of miles by fierce
gale lasting eleven successive days and
nights, and one morning we found our
selves among the Ice and almost
wrecked aloft The gale had blown
itself out, but the situation was one
calling for the best seafnanshlp and
the keenest vigilance. Only steam
whalers and exploring vessels get as
far south as we found our position to
be except by accident. During the
three days we were putting the bark
shipshape we were packed in a field
of ice extending as far as the eye could
see on every hand. and even had we
been q twin screw steamer ] doubt II
we could have worked clear OF 1t. 1t
was field ice broken from the coast Of
some island. and some of the cakes
were a good twelve feet thick and al
most as hard as hint.
On the fourth day we found ourselves
driving down among six or eight great
cebergs. and the boats were provi-
stoned and other preparations made to
leave the bark at u moments notice.
The odds would be thousand to one
that the boats would be ground to
pieces In ten minutes, but we had to
take then. While We helplessly waited
the field struck berg which was esti-
mated 10 be solid cube measuring
about 1000 yards on every front and
towering VI. over II hundred feet high.
There was grand crash. and the berg
began TO slowly topple. II was like a
tree falling, only much slower. 1t took
a long minute for that monstrous cube
to turn turtle, and as the top reached
the water the mass cracked IN twain

The captain favored the idea, perhaps
thinking 1t would profit us In some
way, but circumstance stepped In TO

plan. As we were getting ready the
