During a drunken quarrel late
Saturday Fred Watson shot and fa-
tally wounded his friend and com
panion, Harry Cummins, and then
turned the revolver on himself and
blew out his own brains. The
young men were farm hands and
they received their wages Saturday
for husking corn and came to Peters
burg and began drinking and ca
rousing. They spent the day in
visiting the various resorts and late
in the afternoon started to their
homes, about four miles from the
town, in wagon. They had gone
only a short distance when they be-
gan quarreling and fighting. Wat
son drew a revolver and shot his
opponent four times, fatally wound
ing him. The terrible DEE d sobered
Watson, and he turned the weapon
on himself, blowing out his own
brains. Watson died instantly,
and Cummins lived but few hours.

Purdue University Experiment station,
Dec. 2, 1901.
Probably never in the history OF
corn growing in this state, has there
been more smut present on the fod-
der than can be found this fall. The
conditions for development were
very favorable and some fields are
very badly infected. The presence
Of much smut on fodder is popular
ly believed to cause disease among
stock. A number of communica.
tons have been received during the
past two weeks, reciting losses due
to this cause. This belief is very
old, as one of the earliest writer's
upon smut in 1854 felt it to be nee
essary to make experime ats to dem
onstrate the truth or fallacy Of the
belief at that time,
If we take the results Of all avail
able experiments from that date to
the present time, as basis for a
conclusion instead of the statements
of those who lost animals thought
to be due to this cause, the real dan
ger to stock from eating corn smut
is very small. In the experiments
Of feeding smut, the quantity has
often been made many times great
er than it would be possible for an
animal to obtain in the ordinary
grazing on stalks. The periods
have been from a few days to two
or three weeks. With few excep-
tons, the results have been mega.
tive. At this Station extracts were
made and given by mouth and by
hypodermic injection. The dose
obtained in this manner represented
very large quantities Of crude smut
Only slight illness followed the adj
ministration by mouth and serious
results occurred only after the ad-
ministration Of large quantities by
injection.
The conclusion cannot be other
than that only under rare circum-
stances could an animal get fatal
dose or that death might come to a
specially susceptible individual.
The loss due to this cause must be
very small. A. w. BITING,
Veterinarian.

~A synopsis Of President
Roosevelt's first message to congress
will be found on the CoURIER's aux
Hilary side this week. The Presi-
dent talks OH both sides of the Trust
question, and commits himself to
neither. He is evidently afraid of
the effect Of taking either side would
have on bis nomination for his own
succession. He thinks the Philip
pines are far enough advanced to
justify congress in giving business
men a chance to exploit them, and
make some money in the specula-
ton. Altogether, however, the
message is fairly good one, as it
throws the entire responsibility on
congress.

DAMAGED COMPLEXION.

The jury in Judge Eding's court this
morning returned verdict in the case
of Nellie A. Cooke VS.. Hollister Drug
Company, damages in favor of plaintiff
and awarding the sum of $500.
During the progress of the hearing
the jurymen were presented with pret-
ty button hole" bouquets. This was a
side incident, but the twelve good and
true looked well in their decorat tions.
The following are the main pleas
made by the plaintiff in her complaint.
That one of the prescriptions GUS
tomarily put up and sold by the said
defendant, to wit, prescription Number
15, 730, is a lotion for the complexion
and designed to be applied to the face,
the ingredients of which said lotion are
unknown to the plaintiff, but the same
are in no way poisonous or harmful to
the skin.
THAT on or about the 31st day of
October, A. ID. 1899, plaintiff ordered
from said defendant a bottle of said
lotion and defendant then sold and de-
livered to plaintiff a bottle of liquid
purporting to be and represented by de-
fendant as the lotion ordered by plain
tiff, namely Number 1870"
Plaintiff claimed that the lotion was
not the same as ordered; that it caused
her great distress, poisoned, burned
and injured her skin, she was laid up
several weeks and had to employ a
substitute to discharge her duties as
teacher under the Board of Education

WHAT THE BANKERS say
QUESTION OF FLOATING THE
PROPOSED BONDS.
The Issue Under the SO Loan Act
Would Not Be Acceptable to Some of
The Banks.

In his message of May 21st to the
Legislature of Hawaii, Acting Governor
Cooper expresses himself in the follow
ing language as to the adversability of
securing a public loan by issuing bonds
of the Republic of Hawaii The follow
ing portion Of the letter bears directly
upon the matter in question.
In view of the opinion rendered by
the Attorney General to the effect that
Act II Of the Session Laws of 1896.
entitled An Act to provide for public
loans, is still in force, and that bonds
may be legally issued in accordance
with the terms of said Act: and it al
so appearing from the statement of the
Treasurer of the Territory that there
still remain unissued bonds to the
amount of $199,OO0, authorized by said
Act, | recommend the passage of an
appropriation bill making special au-
propriations for the use of the Terri
tory during the succeeding biennial pc
riod, out of any moneys received by
the Treasury from the loan authorized
by Act Il of the Session Laws of 1896"
The usefulness of such an issue of
bonds depends altogether on whether
they could be floated. At least one To-
cal bank manager declares that he
would not accept them.
E. j. Spaulding, of the Spreckels
Bank, spoke quite positively on the
matter. He said that he felt it would
not be an advisable thing to accept the
issue. as the Republic of Hawaii is
now defunct institution. While there
is no doubt that they would never be
repudiated by any legislature that could
or would be called together in the Ter
ritory, it would not be fair to those
whose financial welfare the bank had in
it's keeping to invest in bonds concern
ing which there was even the faintest
suggestion of doubt. While the matter
is one essentially for lawyers to deter
mine as a business proposition it would
not be satisfactory to bond-holders. 1t
would be a mistake to issue question
able bonds especially, when there is no
apparent reason for their issuance. The
Organic Act provides how loans of this
kind may be made. Any deviation from
the already prescribed plan might be
considered by conservative business
men as an irregular proceeding.
$. NJ. Damon of Bishops bank said
he had given the matter no considera-
ton as yet, but before he would form
a final opinion, would wish to consult
his attorney.
Cecil Brown of the First National, be-
cause of his official position. in the SEX
ate felt that he could not, under the
circumstances express himself as a
private citizen without compromising
himself. Besides this, he wished Ia
make more thorough investigation of
the matter before he put himself on re-
cord in any way.
p. c. Jones, of the Bank of Hawaii
said that he had given the subject lit
tie or no attention. However if the At
torney-General were to pass faVOrably
upon the bonds. there was no reason
why they could not be accepted with
out question. The present financial
stringency would be relieved to the eX.
| tent of $500, 900, which would enable the
Territory to carry on its biennial worl
| with little or no trouble.
