{ BRADYS" COURAGE

BRADY" Clemens, the big negro who
has a reputation as a bully in Ka-
kaako, told the Waterman and several
of the inmates of the Magoon Block
yesterday that no policeman on the
force could handle him. The watch
man had warned Brady and several
others to stop playing craps. and
Brady" sassed the Waterman and
then made his bravado challenge.
The Waterman called up the police
station by telephone and told of Bra
dy's'' threat, and Captain Kanae was
sent to the Magoon Block to size him
up. Captain Kanae has the reputation
of being the strongest man on the
force. although there are others who
top him head and shoulders. Kanae
came upon Brady and few others.

given us. We wish we might take
each of you by the hand and tell you
personally how your loving greeting
has cheered us. Failing that, we can
only assure you that the memory of it
will gladden. all the lingering days
that the good Lord may yet have in

CHANGES IN
SCHEDULES
Oahu Railway Puts
on More
Trains.
Advantages to Residents
of Peninsula and
Eva Mill.

ing Pavilion.

On May 1. 1903, a new time table will
go into effect on the Oahu Railway
system by which patrons of the road
between Eva Mill and Honolulu will
be given, practically. an hour system
from 1880 a. m. to 6 p. m. An "Owl
Train" will leave Honolulu for Eva
Mill at 11:15 o'clock. except on Sun
days, when the train will leave the
depot at 9:15 p. m.
The change in the schedule does not
affect the old train service, which will
run as usual, but it consists of an
addition of several extra trains daily.
There has been a demand for the adj
dition of more trans. The company
has acceded to the request, and viii
be able to give a frst-class schedule.
The new trains are as follows:
Leaving Honolulu for Eva Mill and
way points-7:SO a. m. 2:15 p. m, AIS
p. m, HE'S p. m. CThe last or "Owl
Train will be run every night except
Sunday. leaving then at 9:15 p. mo-
Returning to Honolulu from Eva
Mill and way points-7:45 a. m, 1898
a. No., 4:31 p. m, 7:40 p. m.
By this schedule residents at Eva
Mill, the Peninsula and all intermedi-
ate points can come to the city every
evening to attend entertainments and
the theaters, and can catch the FOWL
Train" for the return trip. AS the
population on the Peninsula is in
creasing, and there is a demand for
homes outside the city, the railroad
company sees the advantage of giving
such residents a train service which |
will make it worth their while to take
up permanent residences along the
road.
The company will also soon tear up
the old tracks from Pearl City to the
terminus on the Peninsula and replace
them with heavier rails, thus practic-
ally building a new roadbed and track
there. The company has also recently
moved the big dancing pavilion. which
formerly stood in Redmond Grove at
Pearl City, to one of the finest lots at
the end OF the Peninsula and directly
on the shore of Pearl Harbor. 1t has
been remodeled and painted and a
lanai added. From the
lanai, and projecting 100 feet into the
harbor is new wharf The purpose
of the railroad company has been to
provide a dancing pavilion outside
the city, where special outing parties
can be accommodated. The company
is of the opinion that the regatta
events can all be held now at the har-
Dor as the pavilion will afford shelter
from the rain, resting place, and
dancing can be enjoyed there after the
races. instead of everybody joining in

are infested TO a much greater degree
than the stalks. The borer always oc-
ours in the largest numbers in the
vicinity of the track used to haul the
cane to the mill. This is no doubt &C.
countable in a great measure. for the
spread of the borer from one field to
another where the cane is hauled any
distance to the mill. The larvae works
in the lower portion of the stalk and
it is probable that often the stumps left
in the field after cutting are infested
with the borer.
Hon. H. P. Baldwin states that to his
personal knowledge the beetle was in
the Islands in the vicinity of Lahaina
until 1883 when in August specimens of
infested cane were forwarded to the
Division of Entomology at Washing
ton. The article appears in Insect Life
Vol. 1, No g. page 1S5. under the title
"A Sandwich Island Sugar-Cane Bor-
err" The borer was introduced, prob
ably from Tahiti, in sugar cane or the
stems of banana plants. Aside from
cane it infests the banana plant and
has been taken from the cocoanut palm
and the wine palm (Caryota urensl.
Its varied list of food plants insures its
ability to exist and multiply even
though one or more of its food plants
are not present.
The burning of the trash after the
cutting of the cane seems to be the
most effectual method of keeping the
borers in check. There is always a de-
cided increase in the number of borers
where the cane fields are not burned
over. The fields should not only be
and stumps left in the fields, especially |
near growing cane and along the tracks |
used in carrying the cane to the mills, |
should be gathered and burned. It
would be necessary to pile them to-
gether with wood in order to complete
ly burn them but the cost of the ma
teria1 to burn them would be money |
well invested.
The burning of all the trash in this
way and care in the selection of seed |
cane would undoubtedly keep this pest
in check were it not for the fact that |
the cane does not al mature at the J
same time. One crop is being har-
vested while alongside it is. a field in /
which the cane is only half grown. The
suggestion might be made that an ex-
,ess of water in irrigation should not be
oracticed since this brings about one
condition which favors the develop
nent of the borer
