Wakefield Was Not Arrested
Just a Friendly Reminder


The alleged arrest of Walter Wake
field was the subject of much comment
on the streets today. People were in
clined generally, from the published
account of the affair, to look upon it
as a piece of political malice On the
part Of Sheriff Murphy. Some well
known Republicans even forgot the
election was over, and tried to create
little prejudice over it.
No doubt it was surprise to both
Sheriff Murphy and to, Walter Wake
field to say that the latter was arrested
last evening for carrying concealed
weapons. Sheriff Murphy had been
told that the young man did carry
them, and he saw the gun on him last
night. Young Wakefield was. merely
invited into the sheriff's Office and he
was shown how to carry gun home in
a package instead of in his pocket. 1t
was merely a friendly admonition
Colonel Sturges was a witness.

DON'T GET MORBID.
at Is Not a Difficult Matter to Think
Y0urself to Death.

At LIS NOT N DtHcuIt Matter to Think
Y0urself to Death.
Thousands of people actually think
themselves 10 death every year by 81
lowing their minds to dwell on morbid
subjects.
AS rule, the thought that kills re-
lates to something the individual
dreaG8 more than anything else in the
world. There is the germ of fatal
thought In ninety-nine persons in every
hundred, and the exception is only
proof against the thought disease by
having been inoculated with the lymph
of optimism or philosophy.
The idea that one has some incipient
disease in ones system, the thought of
financial ruin, that one is getting on in
life without improving prospects-any
Of them or thousand similar
thoughts may carry a healthy man to
a premature grave. A melancholy
thought that fixes itself upon ones
mind needs as much "doctoring' as
physical disease. 1t needs to be eradi-
Gated from the mind or it will have
just the same result as neglected
disease would have. The thought dis
ease sometimes cures itself after run
ming its course; so does smallpox. But
who would settle down to suffer from
smallpox and chance recovery, as thou
sands of foolish persons settle down to
let the thought disease, which has at
tackled them, do it's worst?

morbid notion and every nagging wor-
ry should be resisted to the utmost,
and the patient should be physicked by
cheerful thoughts, of which there is a
store in every ones possession, bright
companions-chea than drugs and
pleasanter.
There have occurred scores of dozens
OF cases where healthy persons have
thought themselves into having tumors
and cancers--cases which admit of no
doubt whatever that the diseases re
suited from constant morbid fear
There might possibly be fewer cases
Of cancer if some great doctors could
assure the world that it is not a hered
itary disease, but morbid minded per-
sons on hearing that there is cancer in
their families generally do the very
worst thing they can do under the cir
cumstances - they conceive an awful
dread that they will be afflicted with
it. They dwell upon the fear constantly,
and every trifiing ailment which trou-
bles them is at first mistaken for the
premonitory symptoms of cancer.
The morbid condition of mind pro-
duces a morbid condition of body, and
ii the disease does happen to be in the
system it receives every encoura ge-
ment to develop.

POULTRY POINTERS.

The best eggs are the result of a
meat diet.
Weak legs come from forced growth.
high feeding and close confinement.
Use no deformed or weak fowls for
breeding and do not keep the same
cock more than one season. =,.. y
A molting hen seldom lays. She can
not be supplying eggs while the strain
OF growing new feathers is upon her.
A very fat hen seldom lays anything
but soft shelled eggs. Apoplexy and
egg bound are the result of excessive
fat. -.
Leaves and hay chaff make excellent
litter for the floors, and by throwing
grain smong it fowls are often kept
busy scratching.
Keep the fowls away from the barns,
stables and carriage houses. In such
places they are nuisances; besides they
are Jlore comfortable i'll a place by
themselves.
Hens must have carbonate and phos-
phate of lime for their shells, and these
will be found in old plastering, broken
oyster shells and bones, with some of
the meat and gristle attached.

How SCISSORS Are Made.

Though no complexities are involved
In the making Of scissors or much skill
required, yet the process of manufac-
ture is very interesting. They are
forged from good bar steel heated to
redness, each blade being cut off with
sufficient metal. to form the shank, or
that destined to become the cutting
part, and bow, or that which later Oh
Is fashioned into the holding portion.
For the bow a small hole is punched.
and this is afterward expanded to the
required size by hammering it on n
conical anvil, after which both shank
and bow are filed into a more perfect
shape and the hole bored in the middle
for the rivet. The blades are next
ground and the handles filed smooth
and FURNISHED with oil and emery,
after which the pairs are fitted to-
gether and tested as to their easy
working.
They are not yet finished. however;
they have to undergo hardening and
tempering and be again adjusted. after
which they are finally put together
again and polished for the third time.
In comparing the edges of knives and
scissors it will be noticed, Of course,
that the latter are not in any way SO
sharply ground as the former. and that
in cutting scissors crush and bruise
more than knives.

A Persian Dinner.

a traveller in Persia thus describes a
dirner served in the household OF a
wealthy Persian: "The chief dish con-
sists of a fowl boiled to rags, surround

almonds and is Jaw sticking to the

titator speechless. 1t is made of gum
that exudes from d tree and is said to

NOT RUSHING TO AFRICA

LONDON, August 17.-There is a de-
Cided lack of public interest in the set
tlement and development of South Afri-
ca. The publication of a number of
tentative schemes, official and other
wise, has not resulted thus far in any
rush of emigrants. In fact, the United
States Embassy seems to have supplied
the Foreign Office with a large proper
ton of the applicants for South African
passes, many Americans having regis
tered applications during the last week.
None, however, could properly be class
ed as emigrants.
The prO-BOers are quite gleeful at the
apparent fulfllment of their prophecies
that the wages of the whites would be
lower under the British than under the
BOer regime. The always acute pro-
blem of working the mines Is now
more difficult than ever. 1t is said that
the supply of workmen is 900 short
of the demand. Tha Kaairs, ike the
Filipinos, are strongly disinclined to
settle down to steady work after the
comparatively large pay and easy life
of army employment. The lack of agri-
culturists is equally marked.

NOT AFTER CUBAN FoRTREssEs

WASHINGTON August 16.-The ac-
ton of the Cuban House of Representa-
tives in voting that none of the fort
resses or arsenals of the Cuban Repub-
lie may be leased or sold by that gov
eminent has no bearing upon any
contemplated action of the United
States, with the property. While the
United States, with an artillery force, is
occupying some portions of Cuba now,
it is not the intention to have this force
remain permanently and it is acting in
the capacity of instructor to Cuban
troops for the purpose of assisting the
Cuban Government should a well-train-
ed force be needed. 1t has been sug-
gested that some portion of the fort
resses and arsenals of Cuba might be
required for one of the four naval sta
lions which the United States is to have
in Cuba, but it is said that none Of this
property is under contemplation by the
officers of the Navy Department ap-
pointed to select the sites.

EARTHQUAKES.

WASHINGTON, August 17.-An in
ternational investigation of earth
quakes will probably be the next great
inquiry Jointly taken up by the leading
nations of the world. Emperor William
is taking the initiative in this move
ment, doubtless not desiring to have the
Car of Russia suggest all the PROPOSE
tons having tendency to bring
civilized peoples closer together.
Germany has invited the United
States, all the European countries,
Mexico, Japan, Argentine and Chile to
participate in the conference for the
study of chronological problems. The
invitation was given directly to the
State Department by Count Won Quadt,
The German Charge d'Affairs. He act
ed under instructions from Berlin. 1t
is proposed to hold the international
conference sometime next spring.
All countries invited to participate
are expected to send delegates. They
will naturally be scientists of high
standing, especially those whose duties
bring them in contact with the gem
eral topics of earthquakes and disturb
ances of the earths crust. No action
looking to calling the conference will be
taken until a considerable number of
the nations required to send delegates
have replied to the invitation sent by
Germany.

FIRST MEETING OF

CAMPAIGN K-TEMPORARY
BOARD OF OFFICERS SELECTED
-CRABBE At THE HEAD.

The new Republican Central Com
mittee met yesterday afternoon. The
time set was o'clock, but it was long
after that hour when sixteen members
of the committee were found available
through the liberal use of proxies.
There was no representation from the
second or sixth districts, some misun-
Outstanding about elections having
apparently occurred. Clarence Crabbe
was made temporary chairman.
j. w. Jones wanted the committee to
go into active work as an organization
without delay, to which A. l.. G. At
kinson demurred with the resolution
that the election of permanent officers
be held over until members in the 9TH
er islands of the group were notified,
so that they might make their choice
and hand in their proxies.
A temporary board of officers was
finally chosen as follows: Clarence
Crabbe, chairman; j. II. Fisher, vice.
chairman; a. l.. 9. Atkinson, secre-
tary; George r.. Carter, treasurer;
Executive committeeman from the dis
tricts present were chosen. This re-
suited in II. A. Baldwin for the third,
j. w. Jones and A. l.. c. Atkinson for
the fourth G.. r. Carter and Il. c. Win
ston for the fifth.

A committee of campaign literature
was chosen following the suggestion of
the chair amended by George r. Car
ter. A. l.. G. Atkinson, w. II. Coney
and j. W. Jones with Clarence Crabbe
will act in preparing a pamphlet ac-
cording to the suggestion of Chairman
Holstein of the convention. This will
include pictures of Kuhio, the platform
the biography of the nominee, the
speeches of Senators Thurston and
Burton, ard other information. All this
will be translated into native. Sam
pies of campaign buttons were handed
to the committeeman who seemed to
think the price, $40 per hundred, ex-
CeSSive.
Campaign methods were discussed.
George Carter spoke in favor of large
meetings and well known speakers as
most attractive to public interest. The
question of a grand rally on Saturday
evening was discussed and the meet
ing adjourned subject to the call of
the chair.
