BEET SUGAR GRINDING.

LOS ANGELES, July 15.-Grinding
will begin in the beet-sugar factories
in Southern California about August
LIST. The seasons output is expected
to be as large as it was last year. A
force of men has been at work for
months putting the machinery in the
Los Alamitos factory in order for oper-
ating. owing to the prevailing cool
and foggy weather the beet crop has
been slow in maturing, but has all the
while been making tonnage, and the
conditions have frightened the pros
pect for a good crop.
Many artesian wells have been put
down since the last campaign on the
lands tributary to the factory, and wa
ter from the factory wells has also
been used to good advantage in irri-
cation. The draining system has been
so changed that water from this source
will be used for irrigation purposes
upon land not largely productive here
tofore. Last years grind aggregated
10000 tons of sugar.

HONQLULU.S MUD BANKS

Many of the merchants in the vici-
nifty of King and Fort and Merchant
and Fort are complaining strenuously
against the digging out of the sewer
refuse from the, corner sewers AMI
leaving the mass to lie close to the
curbing for several hours during the
hottest portion of the day.
On the corner recently occupied by
the Hebron Drug Company and across
from there, masses of black mud which
had been dug up from the corner sew
eEs early in the morning and were pill
ed nearly foot high, were still lying
untouched or uncarted at o'clock this
afternoon. The odor is Objectionable and
the mass is contiguous to the street
crossings. Another deposit lies in
front of the Pacific Hardware Com
pany on Fort and Merchant.
1t is claimed by the merchants that
the deposits are breeding places for
grms and the odor unhealthy as well
as unpleasant as the hot sun slowly
dries the surface of the mass. Such
deposits should they claim be EN-
piled directly into a dump cart and
not left as a menace to public health
and an eyesore to the cleanliness of
the city. They declare that such ac-
ton would not be thought of or per-
mitted in mainland city.

CAPTAIN GREEN ILL.
The Nippon Maru's Commander Suf-
fering From Overwork

SAN FRANCISCO July 16 49, Al
though seriously i'll from the effects of
long vigils on the bridge and an attack
of sunstroke while i'm the port of Ho-
nolulu, Captain w. w. Greene of the
Japanese liner Nippon Maru insisted
upon leaving his room as he neared
the Golden Gate Monday afternoon
and bringing the big steamship into
the harbOr. He has since been confin-
ed to his bed on the steamer, which is
still held in quarantine, but will prob
ably come ashore today On her last
trip to the Asiatic coast the Nippon
Maru put in at Manila, where a deten-
ton of six days followed, on account
of the poor facilities existing for the
discharging of the steamers freight.
There was more or less annoyance to
Captain Greene, in consequence of this
loss of time, and the navigating of the
steamer through strange waters, and
he was seldom absent from the bridge.
On the return trip when Honolulu was
reached, Captain Greene was not in a
condition to Withstand the heat that
was felt on the bridge and he was
forced to relinquish command of the
vessel to Chief Officer Mort, a Japan
csc. For the remainder of the trip
Captain Greene kept TO his room until
the pilot boarded the steamer outside
the Heads.

WATER AT PUULOA.

The well being bored for water on
the Dowsett Estate at Puuloa, Pearl
Harbor, has struck plenty of water at
depth of 1900 feet. This is the regu-
lar Eva level for finding the water and
the Puuloa well presents other char
acteristics common to the water Of
that district. 1t is at present, while
slightly brackish, perfectly useful for
irrigation and cooking purposes and is
perfectly clear and quite cold. Eva
well boring has usually found the wa
ter at the twelve hundred foot levels
to be slightly brackish, a quality en-
tirely missing on going down to the
fourteen hundred level. This will be
done. The present strike was made
exactly according to the FORECAST Of
the engineers in charge.
