KONA ESTATE
IN GOOD SHAPE

Reports from Kona. brought by ]. Nj,
McChesney, who has spent the past
month at the plantation. are most ia
vorable and indicate that the period OF
uncertainty has been passed for the es-
tate. The cane now being taken off is
entirely from the Holualoa lands. con-
tiguous to the mill.
owing TO a scarcity OF rain there has
not been enough water on the upper
lands for the purpose OF fiuming cane
down 10 the main line. but the pros
poets are for more rain very soon now.
The mill is not entirely finished as some
parts have been ordered from this city
and will go back in the Maula Loa.
The railroad also needs some little work
before Il is done. but this Is expected
TO be completed during the present
week.
Up 10 the present time there have
been manufactured and shipped some
1900 bags OF sugar. This figure would
have been much greater IL the nill had
been complete. There has appeared no
evidence OF dissatisfactio on the part
OF the laborers. but on the contrary all
the work is being pushed ahead and
the men are getting what they are enti-
tied to out o. the sales OF sugar.
While the progress OF the planting for
the crop OF next year was delayed by
the action early in the spring. there is
much work being done for the crop OF
1904. There is some clearing going on
and the planting OF this new land will
De Gin within the next two weeks. The
land on which cane is now being cut
will be cultivated for long rattoons for
the same crop.

ONE Line TO PLAINFIELD
NEGOTIATIONS AFFECTING INTER-
URBAN INTERESTS IN PROGRESS.
Neither Hugh j. MCGOWAN Nor Charles
Finley Smith Will Talk of the
Matter, However.

Negotiations are in progress. it is stated,
between Hugh ]. MCGOWAN, president Of
the Indianapolis Street-railway Company,
and Charles Finley Smith, who represents
interests which have been in conflict with
those of the local street-railway company,
looking toward an adjustment of important
points affecting Mr.. Smiths Martinsville &
Plainfield line. 1t is believed that the ne
gotiations, If successfully consummated,
will do away with the possibility of an
interurban warfare between Mr. Smiths
lines and Albert Lieber's Plainheld line
The Board of Public Works is expected to
announce its decision in the interurban
question this week. and by the time the
board acts 1t is believed the agreement
between Mr.. MCGOWAN and Mr.. Smith will
be satisfactorily arranged. While the nego-
tiations are thought to have passed the
stage where failure might result, there are
several points not yet entirely adjusted,
and neither Mr.. MCGOWAN nor Mr.. Smith
will talk for publication.
rs ii true" Mr. MCGOWAN was asked yes
terday, that the business differences be-
tween Mr.. Smith and yourself will shortly
be arranged?"
81 am not at liberty to discuss the mat
ter yet" Mr.. MCGOWAN replied.
1T Is reported" Mr. Smith was asked,
that you and Mr.. MCGOWAN have about
reached an agreement whereby points of
difference between you on matters of COM
companys tracks and concerning your
Martinsville line will be satisfactorily ad-
juSted. Is that true?
There are negotiations in progress" Mr..
Smith replied. but l am in no position to
make them public. L can make state
ment.'

TROUBLES OF A GROOM.
He Left His Michigan Home Under n
Shower of Rice.

Milo Ensminger. popular travelling sales
man, well known in Indiana, is at the Deni-
son Hotel with his bride, pretty young
woman who was Miss Lamont, of Malott
Fountain county. Mr.. and Mrs. Ensminger
are on their honeymoon and within few
days expect to arrive at Marquette. Mich,
where they will probably reside. My good
ness, it's hotl" remarked the groom yester-
day afternoon, hopping his brow and fan
ming himself with his hat. This kind of
weather knocks me out: I'm not used TO it
JJp where l live we have some warm days,
but the nights are so cool that one can
sleep under a blanket any night.
But speaking of warm days and OF gen.
tlemen being hot under the collar, maybe
/ wasn't uncomfortable the other day when
my wife and myself left Malott to start on
our wedding tour 1 might add that L took
part in double wedding. A half sister OF
my wife was married at the same time, and
the entire bridal party-bridesmaids ushers,
flower girls and all-came to the train with
us. They all got on the cars TO see us off
and you can imagine the effect such pro-
cession of people decked out in wedding
finery had on the passengers. And the
amount OF rice and old shoes and ribbon
that was devoted TO us! Say, l used to be
IN the grocery business and handled rice
in large quantities, but IL wasn't marker
to those people who handled the stuff the
other day. The whole town seemed to have
turned out and everybody had an unlimited
supply of rice. OF course the whole carload
throwing. / wonder what they throw rice
at newly married people for, anyhow? Our
trunks haven't arrived yet, and l shudder
to think what condition they will be in
in the choicest of ribbon tied in the daintiest
of knots"

DIED IN THE HALLWAY.
Alcoholism Aided I'm the Death of
Mrs. Eliza Simms.

Mrs. Eliza Simms. colored, twenty years
old. wife of a city laborer. rooming at
1888 Martindale avenue. was found dead in
hall at her home at $50 o'clock yesterday
morning by the woman with whom she
roomed-Mrs. Agnes Trautman. The
Simms woman had been to market early
Saturday night purchasing vegetables.
She arrived home about 1880 o'clock in an
intoxicated condition. She sat on the
porch for some time groaning as II In pain.
Mrs. Trautman tried several times 10 get
her in the house. About 1 o'clock man
passed the house, and Mrs. Trautman
asked his assistance in getting Mrs. Simms
inside. She was carried just inside the
front door and placed the floor Mrs
Trautman then retired and the man left
the house. When Mrs Trautman awoke
yesterday morning at $50 she passed along
the hall to get to the kitchen. She saw
Mrs. Simms still lying on the floor appar-
her and shook her violently to awaken
her. Mrs. Simms gave no response. Mrs.
Trautman, becoming alarmed. awakened
several of the neighbors. 1t did not take
much investigation to prove that the wom-
an was dead. She was taken to the under
taking rooms of Flanner & Buchanan,
where an autopsy was held by Coroner
Brayton. He said death was due to heart
disease, superinduced by excessive alco-
holism.

A PREACHER WHO HAS OFFICIATED
AT MANY WEDDINGS.
He Has Also Preached Many Funeral
SermOns-A Groom Tells OF His
TrOubIes-HOtel Visitors.

II suppose I hold the record in Indiana
for performing marriages and conducting
funerals" remarked DR.. ]. T. Newhouse,
of Chesterton. Madison county, who was
in the city yesterday. Chesterton is sub
urb of Anderson, and DR.. Newhouse has
been pastor OF Bristol Church, in that To-
cality. for twenty years. Bristol Church
congregation is of the new-light faith. DR..
Newhouse estimates that in the twenty
ive years he has been in the ministry he
has performed on an average OF two mar
riages a week. He believes he has aver
aged from one to two funerals a week.
1.-THE most singular experience l ever had
IN performing a marriage ceremony, said
the doctor yesterday. was on a Fort
Wayne & Richmond rain near Portland.
Ind. / married an coping couple, who
came from Ohio. 1 did IT get time TO find
out anything about them. 1 was a passen-
ger on the train and some one came
through the car asking if there was min
lister aboard. 1 said 1 was minister. and
was then invited to oficiate at a marriage.
The pair had got :heir license at Winches-
ter, so were prepared for the ceremony.
They got off at Portland, and just what
the details were or this runaway matcn 1
did not learn"
DR.. Newhouse also holds a high record
in regard to the number of people he has
baptized. His people believe in immersion.
In Henry county, about fourteen years ago,
he conducted a series of revival meetings
at Blountsville, Sulphur Springs, White
Union and Middletown. From Thurs
day until Sunday evening" he said. Il bap-
tized $50 people. / baptized 100 people IN
ffty-five minutes In some instances l bap-
tized two at a time. These were usually
husbands and wives who wanted TO be bap-
tized together, and L think some young
through with the baptism, but because
these people felt that they wanted to be
immersed at the same time"

BLOOD THICKER THAN WATER.
A Travelling Salesman's Explanation
for Not Making a Sale.

''It is said that blood is thicker than
water and believe it," remarked Irving
B. Asiel, New York travelling man at the
Hotel English last night. Il sell silk skirts
for David May, a New York manufacturer,
and for some time it has been our desire
and aim to make a sufficient impression on
a certain Grand Rapids dealer to be able to
sell him our goods. Some time ago / was
in Grand Rapids and called on this dealer.
He told me he would like to have me bring
in my samples and introduced me TO his
buyer in this department, a young lady
named O'Brien. l made an engagement
with Miss O'Brien for the following day
and presented myself at the store. After
looking over my stuff she decided that she
could do better buying elsewhere and
showed me a skirt that she claimed was
superior TO mine. AS matter of fact IL
was not but l was unable to sell to her. \
few days ago l received a letter from my
employer, expressing regret that we had
not been able to sell the Grand Rapids man
an order and asking why / had failed l
wrote a brief explanation, as follows: Mr.
Blanks buyer is named O Brien; our chic (
competitor is named Ryan. When Ryan
meets O'Bren there is nothing doing for
David May 1 guess the explanation was
satisfactory"

pay his respects to Sheriff Saulcy and Jailer
Jake Kurtz. The Chinaman was arrayed
In light suit and brown shirt that had
patent leather polish. He wore a white
collar and red tie. His head was cIeanly
shaved except where his queue was
wrapped about his head. The sheriff and
his family were sitting outside and Chin
Hee was heartily welcomed. In good En-
gIish he talked or the massive iron bars
and the great stone walls OF the Jail He
shrugged his shoulders. saying IL would be
q hard job for man 10 escape.
From the Jail Chin Hee walked down Ala
bama street. Here hc met two reporters
with whom he had become acquainted dur
ing the preliminary trial. He greeted the
newspaper men with a broad smile and
cordially shook their hands. He asked
them 70 accompany him 10 a nearby cigar

prisonment. He said: Me nkee; can
not walk much inside little hall"
He was then asked IL he going to

A peculiar incident about Chin Hee Is
that the time he was arrested on the
Charge of murder and UP until the time he
was discharged by the grand jury he pro-
fessed the greatest ignorance of the English
language.

dition on account of improvements that are
being made In New York similar con-
dition of affairs exists. A story is told of
man who, when asked recently how he
liked New York, replied: 1t will be
pretty fine city when it is finished. "
