RUN INTO AND
NEARLY KILLED
Willie Vierra on a BicyIe CoIiides
With Fernandez Hack at
Midnight.

Shortly after midnight an accident
occurred IN the neighborhood of Thorn
as Square which may result fatally. a
sixteen year-old boy named Willie vi
ezra was riding along King street to-
ward town on a bicycle. While pass
ing Thomas Square, ne cellided with
a hack driven by man named Fer
nandez, OF No rs stand.
The shaft of the hack struck Vietra
squarely in the right side of his face,
making a great hole and rendering him
unconscious.
The hackman picked up the injured
boy and drove with him to the police
station, from whence he took him to
the Queens Hospital. At the hospital
his injuries We're dressed, and at ,
o'clock this morning he was reported
to have regained consciousness.
Fernandez states that there was no
light on the bicycle, and that he was
not aware of its presence until he felt
the shock of the collision. He says
that he was observing the rule Of the
road and keeping to the right When the
accident occurred.

SMALL FARMING AGAIN.

With the new evidence in, it appears
that success at small farming in Ha-
wall is first a matter of locality, sec
ond a matter of freight rates TO mar
ket. and third a matter of middlemen,
skilled industry on the part of the
farmer being understood. This is the
idea given in another column by Mr.
Bucholtz ond it is borne out by gener-
al testimony
There are undoubtedly places on the
islands where certain vegetables and
fruits which Honolulu gets from the
coast grow well and do well. There is
no better kitchen garden in California
than that az the Volcano House, but so
far no one has been tempted. to- lease
similar soil near by and go into the
business of truck farming on a large
scale. That is because OF the expense
Of getting the product to Hilo (also the
small demand there) TO say nothing OF
Honolulu. which is the chief market Of
the group. As for fruits, certain parts
of Hawaii grow them TO perfection,
fruits of the north temperate as well
as the torrid zones. but they rarely il
'ever get to this island. Freight rates
by land and sea and the work of the
local representatives of California's
fruit exporters forbid
time may develop Hawaii VIII feed its
own population. so far, al least, as veg
etables and fruits are concerned. We
are bound TO believe that the necessary
produce can be raised here. Some of it
is now grown by Cinnamon in the sub
urbs of towns and marketed at a good
price, but these are the commoner and
simpler staples. Other and more deli
cate products, celery for example can
only be raised far from this market.
Economically it is of the first impor-
lance that the opportunities given by
every island locality should be utilized.
and in course of time, as roads are
built and population increases and
freight rates come to De regulated by
law, such results will appear.
But let no one deceive himself as to
the chance of substituting truck farm
or orchard products for sugar. the one
great money-making export Of Hawaii. !

ANGLO SAXON FELLOWSHIP.

The fact that this Is an era of good
feeling between Great Britain and the
United States is not proved so much by
British assurances of good will as il
is by the attitude of the American peo-
pie.
Not many years ago British pleas
for amity-and they We're frequent
were met with derision by this public
and it's press. Not only was the Irish
idea ascendant in American politics.
but the blood feud of 1875 and 1872. pre-
served in school histories and accentu-
ated by the course of the British gov
eminent in the American civil war. had
Its i'll effect upon our Anglo-Saxon
sympathies. But how marked the
changer Even the Irish no longer do
politics in America on the anti English
basis. 1t is not fashionable any more
to twist the lions tail. The Senate can
go through a session without calling
the British empire to account, and
money is no longer raised to enable
Ireland to fight for the divine right of
man to lease house or a farm and
then shoot the callous landlord for de-
handing the rent agreed upon.
We cannot think that this profound
change OF sentiment is caused by the
friendly course of Great Britain during
the .Spanish-American war of 1898. It
antedated that. To be sure, some real
enthusiasm for our British cousins was
caused when Captain Chichester in
command of British cruiser in Ma
Mia bay, replied to the inquiry of the
German Admiral as to what course he
intended to take if the Americans
should attack Manila, by saying: ASK
Admiral Dewey" That meant as much
to us then as did Captain Tatnall's ac-
ton in Chinese waters when a fighting
British ship needed and received his
aid against an enemy, did to the peo-
PIE of Great Britain. Still it did not
cause the phenomenon We are here
considering. Back of all such sequen-
ttai incidents was the instructive feel
ing of Americans that the safety Of all
Anslo-Saxon institutions called for the
alliance, tacit or otherwise. OF all An
slo-Saxon peoples We got into this
way of thinking before there was trou-
bic with Spain; and indeed. NAPOLEON
thought something of the kind a cen
fury ago, when he said that Europe
must either become Republican or Cos
sack
The only friend America has abroad
is England. The only friend England
has misunderstanding of course her
own colonies-is America. 1t is natural |
and inevitable that the two should !
come into some form OF alliance to pro- |
tect and further common interests and
defend each other from common foes. !
Inc idea does not lack for an inspiring |
quality 1t fits the broader vision of |
the new America. 1t paints the picture
OF two world powers standing as CO.

globe, the twain mighty enough ia de-

Tales of The Town.

A great many people like to use
an expensive word now and then,
no matter whether they understand
it or not themselves. The harder
the times, the higher priced is the
word. We heard young man say
the other day, in speaking of some
kind of dOOficker in a tobacco
pipe, that it absorbed all the am
tertina" in the tobacco. An old
farmer residing near here was heard
to make the statement that he was
to put ''nipalo'' on his barn in the
spring. One man told of the great
amount of sickness in his family,
and there were enough old bottles
laying around to fill library; that
he intended to paint his fence green
to kind 'er 'combinate' with the
blinds; and times are not considered
hard around here just now, either.
A Lancaster family found it nee
essary, not long ago, to sell some
chickens that were counted among
the family possessions. This trans
action was witnessed by the chill
dran of the household, who had
made particular pets of two OF the

SandStOrnlS.

Sand and dust whirls occur in arid
regions in hot weather. They may
be anywhere from a rod to several
rods in diameter and from twenty to
a thousand feet high. They are some
times compound, a score or more small
whirls forming a whirling circle around
a common center. They are very COM

up so much sand in the Sahara and
Arabia that those on whom the sand
falls are overwhelmed. They occur
also in the arid regions of the United
States.

Bigger Than the SUN.

A minute parallaX of about one-siX-
tieth of a second of arc found for
Arcturus by DR.. Elkin gives q most
astounding result This small parallax
implies distance from the earth equal
to about 100000 times the suns dis
lance. This vast distance would pro-
duce a diminution of light of about
35A magnitudes, SO that the sun placed
at the distance of Arcturus would be
reduced to a star of only 9A magni-
tude! 1t would not be visible with an
opera glass! ArcturuS is therefore in
round numbers 915 magnitudes, or over
5000 times brighter than the sun
would be at the same distance. AS
Stunning the same density and bright
ness of surface as the sun. the dame
ter of Arcturus would therefore be
