AND THE SALOONS.

Kansas City, Kan, Oct. 20.--All sa-
looms and gambling houses in Kansas
City, Kan, were closed tight to-day
by Chief Of Police Murray on an Or

to GUST Mayor Gilbert and other city
officials from office for failure to en-
force the prohibition law and to close
the gambling houses.
This is the first time the gambling
places in Kansas City, Kan, have
been disturbed for years, and saloons
have been permitted to run with but
slight interruption.

Baltimore, Oct. 2O.-Four millions of
dollars which arrived here early this
morning by express from New York,
Philadelphia and Washington, cleared
the financial atmosphere, and at the
closing time of the various monetary
institutions this afternoon there was
every confidence that the crisis in the
financial district of the city had been
safely passed.
Every incoming train during the aft
ernoon and evening brought packages
of money to the banks and trust COM
panies, and tonight it is estimated
that there is at least $S,OOO.0OO of cur
rency in the vaults of the financial in
stitutions of the city.
Conferences were held during the
evening between various interests, and
it was stated late tonight by a prom
inent banker that no further trouble
among the banks or financial institu-
tons of the city was probable.
The directors and the receiver of the
Maryland Trust Company. the first to
close its doors on Monday held con-
ference to-day and discussed ways and
means, but late tonight Receiver AL
Ian McLane said he had nothing to
make public, although he expressed
the opinion that the company would
in the near future be in position to
pay dollar for dollar to de0ositors and
creditors.
The directors of the Union Trust
Company also held a long session dur
ing the day. While the statement of
assets and liabilities of this company
is not ready to be presented to the
courts, Receiver White expressed the
opinion that the company will in a
few days resume business.
Other banking and trust companies

and no further trouble is expected from

THROWN FROM
FIRE TRUCK
Ladderman Frank Smith Meets
With Serious Accident While
Answering an Alarm.

While on the way to a fire the sudden
jolting of the hook-and-ladder truck
threw Fireman Frank Smith from his
position on the running board. He
struck the pavement head foremost and
was still unconscious when brought to
the hospital. 1t was feared by the
house physician that he had received
internal injuries which might prove
fatal.
Smith is stationed at the Central
Fire Station, corner Fifth and Valley
streets, Burlington, Ia. and in referring
to the accident, he said to reporter:
my whole system had received a vio-
lent shock which affected my nerves
fearfully. The doctor said had nerv-
Gus prostration. l would often start
trembling out of a nervous sleep, COW
cred with a cold perspiration, and i'm

my whole body would be numb and
then again there would be terrible
cramps in my limbs.
For a long time after leaving the
hospital was so weak that l could not
walk across the room and my strength
steadily refused to return. l could not
eat and the tonics and appetizers they
gave me did me no good. l was too
sick to go on duty and the doctor said

BAILlFFS WILL
BE PAU SOON
(From Saturdays Daily.)

fTOIn saturday Dany.)
Governor Dole yesterday signed the
bill repeating the bailiff act and it will
take effect on July LIST. The repeal
wipes out the present bailiffs, which in
clude Bailiffs Hopkins and Ellis in Ho-
nolulu and one bailiff in each of the
other circuits.
The old bailiff law, Familiarity known
as the Humphreys act. gave the bailiffs
the same powers as sherffs and many
abuses resulted from this authority.
Since the advent of Judge De Bolt and
Judge Robinson the jury drawing abuse
has been stopped and the bailiffs
brought to their proper position of SIM
ply preserving order in the court room.
There is some talk now of getting an
appropriation through for "bailffs to
be appointed by each circuit judge
which would not however give them the
same powers as under the Humphreys
act. If no provision is made for bailiffs
the old practice of detailing a police
officer for the duty will have to be fol-
lowed.

WHAT is PAIN BALM?

Chamberlain Pain Balm Is a lini-
ment, and while adapted to all the or
binary uses of n liniment. has qualities
which distinguish it from other rene
dies of this class. Pain Balm is espe-
cially beneficial for rheumatism. Thou
sands of cases can be cited in which
this remedy has effected a cure when
the sufferer had previously triad the
best medical service without securing
relief Pain Balm is positively guaran-
teed to give relief in the most severe
cases of chronic or acute rheumatism.
Pain Balm heals bruises, burns and
scalds in less time than any other treat
ment. 1t is "antiseptic," that Is, II
prevents putrefaction. and by so doing
generally prevents an unsightly scar
after the injury is healed.
For lame back. lumbago and neuralgia,
Pain Balm has no equal. 1t has the
quality of getting to the right spot"
No sufferer from these distressing af-
fections should defer a trial OF this
remedy. One application gives relief.
Try it. All Dealers and Druggists sell
it. Benson, Smith & Co.. Ltd, agents
for Hawaii.

To Be Depended On
Because 1t Is the Experience
of a Honolulu Citizen and
Can Readily be In
vestigated

A stranger lest in q large city would
place far mere dependence on the d.
rections given him by q local resident
than the guidance Of another stranger
like himself. This Is natural conse-
quence Of experience; It's like a ship
in a strange port-a trusty pilot fami-
liar with the harbor Is always called
upon to bring her safely to her moor
ings. So 1t Is with endorsement; we
doubt the sayings OF people living at a
distant point because we can't investi-
gate. but public expression of local
citizens can be depended upon, for tits
an easy matter to prove 1t. Evidence
like the following is beyond disputed
Mr.. w. F. Williams of this city. is a
lighthouse keeper. and he has held this
position for the last 80 years. He says:
II was for number of years. one of
that numerous army OF people who
suffer with their backs. Mine ached
and panied me to no small extent, 40
that / was glad when heard of a rem
edy for 1t, Doan's Backache Kidney
Pills. I obained some of these at the
HOLSTER Drug Co.'s store, and took
them. They gave me great relief, and
I make this short narration of my ex-
periences for the benefit of others who
perhaps do not know that nearly all
backache arises from the kidneys, and
the best medicine for II is Doan's Back
ache Kidney Pills"

Appropriations large and small. brt
principally small, have been made for
road building In that district and with
, but very poor results. Government Of
ficials who have gone over the line
have. unfortunately in most instances,
done so when the weather was fair
and, consequently, have not a true con-
ception of the condition OF the road at
other seasons. 1t seems to the Herald
that concerted movement on the part
of residents, with possibly change or
two in the personnel of the road board,
would result in giving Hamakua road
equal to the best on the island and one
that would answer as well in wet as in
dry seasons.
MINOR MATTERS.
John Herring has been appointed fish
inspector for Hilo. Mr.. Herring has
been acting for Stanford University in
collecting fish of strange species ever
since the commissioners under Prof.
Jordan were here months ago. He is
well fitted for the position of inspector
and the appointment is favorably COM
mented upon.
A new parsonage 35x50 feet Is In
course OF erection upon the Haih
church grounds. 1t will be completed
within month. The basement is de-
signed to accommodate Sunday School
classes. Upon completion of the par
sonage thank offering luau will be
given to which all the people are in
vited.
1t should make no difference to resi-
dents OF Hilo who owns the electric
railway when 1t is completed. II the
electric company finds 1t advantageous
to sell the franchise when approved by
Congress there should be no objections
to 1t, Hllo is one of the few towns in
the United States without street car
service and 1t needs one badly. II the
line can be controlled by local
pital so much the better but IL 1t
cannot be then let foreign capital come
in and build 1t. The average patron of
the road will not be able to distinguish
the difference.-Herald.

CITY AND COUNTY BILL
PUSHED THROUGH
HOUSE
Continued from Page 80

The committee recommends the al
| lowance of the $4,000 claim for the
| Hackfeld wharf, on condition that
Hackfeld & Co. relinquish all claims to
the wharf and the prior right to it's
use. The committee says however,:
1--WE reluctantly recommend the
payment of this claim upon the ground
that refusal to pay the same would
have the appearance of population on
the part Of the Territory and injure it's
credit. In this transaction the credit of
the Territory was pledged for a large
sum of money in wholly irregular
manner and entirely without warrant
of law. The entire amount of this work
was done under the authority of a let
ter from the then Superintendent of
Public Works. We cannot too severely
condemn the methods and operations
by which claims against the Territory
can be permitted to accrue to such a
large amount and in such a manner.
The precedent established is an ex-
tremely dangerous one, for, If public
officials without warrant of law can
pledge the credit of the Territory for
such large amount as here involved,
there Is no limit to the amount of debt
that can be incurred by officials acting
without proper authority"
The committee further says that it
is shown that the contractors received
a profit of s13,s7709 in commissions on
labor and material and recommends a
law to make impossible a recurrence Of
a matter Of this kind.
BILLS TOO HIGH.
c. Fl. Dickerson's claim for $3.50 as
fee for attending an auction sale for
Supt. Boyd is cut to $25. The commit
tee also says that the bills for extin-
gushing the Hamakua forest fires are
extravagant and that the claimants
We're protecting their own property as
much as that of the government. The
items of 5000 interest, 5000 for Ookala
Plantation and $500 for Kukaiau Plan
tation are stricken out. The commit
tee cuts an item of $126 for rent of
school building from the Oahu Sugar
Co. in half and recommends that all
rented buildings be purchased by the
government. The committee makes no
recommendation as to the item of $3.50
for ]. j. Belser, widening Waikiki road.
The Rapid Transit Co. has paid of this
amount the sum of s2,025 and also 1928.
Senator Achi wanted the report laid
on the taDle as ne claimed that the
committee had been simply told to
bring in bill and had no business in
vestigating the various bills. Senator
Baldwin defended the committee and
the two bills introduced by Senator
Dickey, one covering the road items,
the other the remaining unpaid bills,
