81 have nothing TO live for" the sad
faced woman OF seyenty-four says;
thence know l shall just keep on liv-
ing"
She has no illnesses as yet, is active
and fond OF all outdoor exercises. She
has been SO much ON the water that
she has acquired the sailors ruddy col
or. and much of her strength In old
age is due TO her love for the bracing
sea air.
The empress lived for many years
at Chiselhurst, England, where her
husband died, but recently she has
moved TO Marlborough, farther inland.
Three rooms in the house are kept as
shrines. Relics of the first Napoleon
fill one, belongings OF her husband are
in another, and in the third are the
playthings of her son, the prince inpe-
rial, who was killed by Zulus In South
Africa.
A life OF contrasts, indeed, is that OF
Eugene. empress OF the French. She
has seen all that is brilliant In the
court life of France and has known
what 1t means to be childless widow,
remembered occasionally, but more
frequently forgotten. The mother OF
the empress must herself have been
amazed at her daughters career. She,
the mother, was the child Of an Irish
man who settled in Spain and dealt in
wine. A Spanish duke came along and
married Miss Marie Kirkpatrick, the
wine merchants daughter, and it was
the child of this marriage, the beauti-
full Eugene, who completely infatu-
ated Napoleon III.

DIVERGENT VIEWS ON SMALL
FARMING AT HAMAKUA, HAWAII

! The following is from Hilo Side
Lights:
! Within the coming future, and pos
sibly within shorter period than any
of us may anticipate, or wish to see
| realized, a decline must follow in our
main industry, owing to the develop
ment of the beet sugar industry in the
United States, as well as from compe-
tition OF cane products from tropical
possessions of the United States, or
from anticipated annexation of anoth-
er tropical territory within a few years
to come
1t is not the object of this article to
deal with the advantages our Compel
itors possess over us as regards near
ness to home market, labor supply.
time required in growing crops. etc.
but we shall look about and try to
ascertain what other agricultural pos
sibilities this territory can devote it's
energies to in the future
Secretary Wilson, of the Department
of Agriculture at Washington, states
that he desires to see these islands de-
velop in other lines besides sugar and
to such products that cannot be pro-
duced in the mainland.
a few of the many which We could
mention are coffee, tobacco, pepper,
cobra, vanilla, cocoa, pineapples, tea,
castor oil, and many other products
which are not in mind at this writing
and which have to be tried and exper-
imented with.

of our leading citizens that coffee is a
failure in Hawaii, but ] should like to

what sense this is TO be understood.

is it an agricultural failure. namely.
that the plant does not thrive TO ad-
vantage and dies prematurely? Is It
that the trees do not produce prolifi-
cally enough to be remunerative?

He Will Travel With Large Suite and Will
Be Guest of the United States
While in America

| WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.-For the
I last two years, before even he made
. his European trip, rumor has credited
the King of Siam with a desire to visit
this country. The bill introduced by
Senator Frye, as acting chairman of
the Committee on Foreign Affairs, ear
ly in the week tends to confirm this ru-
NOR, and it is not improbable that the
Siamese King will make a tour of this
country within the coming year as the
guest of the nation.
Senator Frye's bill was inspired by
the American Minister at Bangkok,
Hamilton King, who was unofficialiy
informed that the King projected n
trip to America. 1t authorizes the
President to invite the King of Siam
to visit the Western continent as u
guest of the United States, and appro-
PIRATES an unnamed sum for his enter
tainment According to the American
Minister at Bangkok, the King will
max the journey across the Pacific in
the royal yacht, stopping at Japan en-
route.
1t may be remembered that two
brothers of the King, Prince Mares and
Prince Sonapandit. headed an embassy
which made prolonged stay in this

country in 1884 in the course of its tour
around the world. This embassy was
received here with great cordially, and
entertained by the government. Until
now there has been no permanent ST.
amese legation at the American capt.
tai, that country being represented
here by Phya Prashiddhi, who was
also accredited to the Court OF St
James. Recently, however, Phya Ak
haraj has presented his credentials to
the President, and will establish a per-
manent legation at Washington.
The new Siamese Minister is accom-
panied by Mr.. Lotus. who was attach
ed to Prince Nares's embassy, and
again visited this country in the suite
of the retiring minister. Mr.. Lotus
will remain as permanent secretary of
the new legation.
The Crown Prince of Siam is at pres
ent in England, and 1t is possible that
he may return home by way of Amer
lea, which would give him an oppor-
tunity to visit a country in which he
has long been deeply interested. The
heir to the Siamese throne IS said to be
a broad-minded prince, richly gifted,
who has been carefully educated for
the exalted position he Is to occupy.

where soil. especially character of soil
rainfall, etc, are So manifold, the fail
ures and successes have been most
istrikingly exemplifed by existing con-
ditions.
J 1t has been proven that coffee is a
plant which will not stand excessive
! rainfall, especially In clay or heavy
adhesive soil. at high elevations. AT
low elevations, say under thousand
! feet altitude, these conditions are not
nearly so detrimental TO its culture.
! The failure here lies in the fact that
! the trees were poor producers. Be
sides these existing conditions 1t may
have been that certain elements were
; lacking IN the soil necessary TO pro-
duce as the coffee tree calls principal
" for phosphoric acid elements and
. potash.
Coffee will not thrive to an old age
in a shallow soil underlying which is a
solid bed as rock, as the trees will be-
gin to die after having possibly pro-
duced two crops. The coffee tree sends
down a very long tap root and after
the same strikes solid rock the tap
turns up and the tree consequently
dies.
One Of the conditions TO vigorous,
heavily producing trees is to possess n
loose, deep and porous soil SO as to
allow of good drainage and plenty
OF depth for root
4 great many opinions have also ex-
listed relative to the shading of coffee
trees, and l am of the opinion that
shade is most beneficial in all locali-
ties; the amount TO be determined upon
is to be decided and ascertained by ex-
perience. in the locality where one IS
located. and no hard and fast rule can
be laid down for all.
Lower elevations require more shade
than higher ones.
The coffee industry started some few
years ago in Hawaii under various
physical conditions. and the failures
owing to ignorance Of requirements
were appalling.
