AKUAS.

The distant sea is roaring,
The clouds chase DER the sky,
The wind sweeps through the palm
leaves
With a wild unholy cry.
Sharp 'mongst the coal-black shadows
Fails moonlight clear and bright,
The old akuas are dancing
On the turf of the heiau site.
Their snow-white jaws are moving,
Chattering in piercing tones,
The sea-wind is singing the chorus
Whistling through sun-dried bones.
Rafting the fieshless knuckles,
The skin-covered shark-drum pound,
The grinning skeletons dancing
In time to the awful sound.
we are the damned ones chorus,
King. alii, and slave
Each night, al the screech-owls calling,
We hasten from grave and cave.
Our names are dead and forgotten
In the past of long before,
But our sin and our crime undying
Pursue US for evermore!

SONGS OF
THE PACIFIC
BY Henry W. Kinney.
CANOE SONGS.

Sing a song of tonight, my love,
Sing of this full moons glow,
Sweet as the stars that shine above,
Clear as the waters below.
Softly let ring the mellow notes
OF the full toned old guitar,
Sing a song of tonight, my love,
Sing CT the pleasures that are.
Slowly we float ahead, my love.
over the lazy lagoon,
Yesterday passed and is dead, my love.
Tomorrow will come all too soon.
Sweetly you sing tonight my love,
Tomorrow our hair will be white,
Strike the guitar while the string Is new,
And sing of our love of tonight!

Free Oil From Anse~LaButte.
Crowle,' News.

The barrel of oil from the
Moresi No. I at A Anse laButte
that has been expec ted so long
by DR.. F. R. Martin has arrived
and is now on tap in front OF the
McAyeal hardware where sam
piles of the oil, that is said to be
good lubricator, can be obtained
free of cost. All you have to do
is to bring a bottle and help your
self.
The barrel OF oil in question is
the first one that was shipped
from the we'll and has been on
the road about ten days.
Mr.. Moresi's we'll is pumper
but is is claimed that the oil is
of superior quality, and as a
lubricator is worth about So per
barrel.
Experienced oil men say the
reason the oil is lubricator is
becauseI the product comes from
the surface OF the the great strata
Of oil that lies under the field, and
that the naptha and other proper
ties that generate gas has eva-
porated from i, leaving only the
black, or lubricating oil, and had
the driliers gone deeper they would
have found gas and a gusher, but
an entirely different grade OF oil.

The first two they took for some new
variety of grass, which-they supposed
Mr.. lnnoyator would eventually cut and
cure for his cows and horses. Corn Is
the logical crop of this region. The
mountaineers persist, therefore. in
moonshlnng for the following reasons.
First-Because they have made their
own corn whisky for generations, and
The revenue tax on Its production Is re-
CARED by them as an imposition and A
blow aimed at their liberties.
Seeond-'No matter how large a crop
Of corn q highlander may raise, to mar
ket that corn u out of the question, for
the reason that the mountain roads arc

brings ready sale anywhere. with the
grain he might seek In vain for buy
err, but when that same grain Is made
INTO whisky, then the buyer seeks him.
ihe whisky sells at the rate of rs cents
10 20 cents per quart, and several gal
Ions can be carried in jugs and bottles
by man riding horseback over the
country. The liquor manufactured by
these people is simply the plain raw
spirits,
The stories about the desperate char
acter OF these moonshlners are very
much colored and exaggerated. Moon.
shine plants are seized every week in
the year throughout the southern
mountains by revenue officers but of
this the eastern public knowns nothing,

year by the tricks and devices OF those
engaged In the production of whisky.
Barrels bearing the proper stamp ana
marx are rellled and stamps carefully
removed from barrels that have passed
through the hands Of the government
gaugers and storekeepers and placed on
others filled with whisky from some
moonshine still.
once captured ana hailed before the
United States courts, the moonshiners
receive little mercy at the hands OF the
federal judges But the moOnshiners
are 80 shrewd that II Is often difficult
matter to convict them. even In cases
where the court and Jury are satisfied
Of the guilt Of the accused This is due
to the fact that the moonshiners have
learned 70 take advantage Of every
flaw IN the law prohibiting the traffic.
For example, the customer never re-
ceives the whisky that he has pur-
chased directly from the seller Usually
he gives 81 or so cents 70 some person
and arises next morning to find a gal
lon or quart of liquor under hia door
step, or else he leaves the money ON a
stump IN the woods goes away, and
returns several hours later TO find the
money gone and q bottle of 'yeller
corn In Its place.
OF course information Is sometimes
given by TRAITORS but the talebearer
never lives an easy llfe afterward and
he never knows when he goes TO sleep
at night that he will awake safe and
sound next morning The moonshlners
may be completely Ignorant of the out
er world, but when once they have de-
oided to kill or ruin some one that per-
son Is not safe even in Canada or Cali
fornla. He Is almost certain TO be fol-
lowed up by some one from his former
home who, like true avenger. will not

and II Is only occasionally. when an
ARRAY ensues and some one Is killed,
that the tragic facts travel the rounds
OF the press.
AS q matter OF fact, the moonshiner
relies more on his wits or his iieetness
Of foot to evade and 0utwit the revenue
officers than he does on his "trusty
rifle" and II Is In these qualities
that he shows to advantage.
About four years ago the revenue Off
GERS of certain section of East Ten
nessee became convinced that noon
shining was being carried on on large
scale in a certain section OF the noun
tains. yet for whole year all efforts
TO locate the stM proved futile. Nearly
dozen persons had during that time
been arrested for peddling whisky, but
when they were tried none OF them
would tell where they procured the
whisky, DECLARING that they received II
from persons who acted as middlemen,
delivering the liquor from the still to
those who peddled II.
Finally the location of the still was
discovered. A trapdoor in the floor OF
a log hut situated in a very remote and
almost inaccessible part OF the noun
tains led downward into a gallery ex-
cavation underground from spring on
the mountain side through small hol-
lowed-out logs. the surplus fluid escap-
ing from the chamber In the same man
ner through hollow log pipes at point
further down the mountain slope, In
asmuch as the revenue officers usually
discover moonshine stllls by the smoke
arising from the fire underneath these
moonshlners had taken the preeaution
to connect the furnace with the chim-
ney of the log cabin above, so that In
the event revenue officers arrived ON
the scene they would be unable to trace
the smoke to Its source.

This case was quite remarkable, but
as a general thing the moonshlners re-
~ on illght to escape the revenue Off
GERS. Their stills, made of copper, sell
dom, II ever. hold more than 20 or rs
gallons, and are made In the north.
They are obtained for the moonshlners
by dealers in small towns throughout
the mountain country and are usually
shipped marked GLASS, Handle with
Care,n etc The copper still Is the only
really valuable part Of the moonshlner's
outft, II being an easy matter for him
to make new vessels, troughs etc. in
case his plant is seized and destroyed,
and when the sentinels that are posted
about the outskirts OF a moonshine still
give notice OF the approach of revenue
officers, those engaged in making whis-
Ky hastily empty the still and carry IL
with them In their fight through the
woods 10 place of safety
About siS years ago the regulations
provided that on the capture OF
mOonshine plant the officers should de-
str0y the entire apparatus found there
In, and In doing so they usually hacked,
cut and battered the still until II app
peared 10 their eyes as beyond oil
