The run home to the starting point was

Fortune on Klon6ike Farm.

TACOMA (Wash.), July Nv. NJ.
Swinehart, formerly publisher of the
Juneau Mining Record, is making
fortune operating at Fort Selkirk the
most extensive farm in British Yukon
or Alaska For five years Swinehart
has been a successful farmer in the
north, becoming an enthusiastic be-
lever in the agricultural possibilities
of the great Yukon valley. His farm
consists of 12O acres, the chief prod
ucts of which are hay, oats, pota-
toes, turnips and other hardy winter
vegetables. All of these are produced
abundantIy. Dawson and the sur
rounding country affording a good
market at high prices. Potatoes yield
about 200 bushels to the acre and a
similar area produces three tons of
oat or timothy hay.
A novel feature of the country is that
timothy can be sown on May 1st and
the nay crop cut the same season, due
to the enormously rapid growth under
the hot summer sun. Swinehart says
his experience has demonstrated that
twenty ares of his Fort Selkirk farm
will yield a greater profit than his
fathers we'll titled thousand acre farn
in Wisconsin.

gramme and not his own. His patience
under the discovery was not increased
by the information that Mulvane was
quietly inviting congratulations in
Kansas for having "given the strenu-
Gus gentleman all the strenuouslty his
his strenuous appetite called for"
Folks in the East know how Mr..
Louis F. Payn of New York regards

ion here that Mr.. Payn and Mr.. Null

this last visit OF the President to Kan

Presidents train. For some years past
Kansas folks have been ardent enthu-
siasts of Mr.. Roosevelt's advancement.
Everybody who has travelled with Mr..
Roosevelt has shared in this generous
outpouring from Kansas hearts. Mr..
Mulvana was informed that this was
no reason why a National Committee
man, as such, should be taken along.

that this was all news TO him." and
to withdraw his request. But Senator
Burton was there. He was all there as

NOT A MURDER
MYSTERY AFTER ALL

For a time yesterday it looked as
though the Police We're going to have
an opportunity to unravel what might
prove to be a japanese murder mys-
terry. Word was brought TO the station
that a japanese photographer who has
his shop at the corner of MaunaIzea and
King streets and his servant girl had
not been seen for three days, and II
was thought that they had come to
some harm. Late yesterday afternoon
however, a Japanese who lives on
Kukui street came to the Police Sta
ton and said that he was taking care
of the man who had supposedly disap-
peared and also the girl. 1t seems
that the photographer was slightly in
sane or at least was acting queerly and
was taking rest for a few days.
The man did not explain, however, the
wrecked condition in which the police
found the studio. Susumago, the Japa-
anese who was reported as missing,
ment at the corner of Maunakea and
King streets and hid a suite of offices
on the second floor of the building.
The servant lived in the same place.
The proprietor of the block, Y. Amin,
has been trying to collect the rent
or several days-and as the owner of
the studio did not appear the matter
was brought to the attention of the
police. Deputy Sheriff Chillingworth,
Detective Renear, Officers Elvin and
Mulleitner and Chester Doyle went to
the studio to make an investigation.
The condition of the place seemed to
indicate that struggle had taken
place. A camera was broken, chairs
were overturned and broken, and
broken sticks We're lying about. Two
unmade beds We're found in the living
room, which is directly off the studio,
clothing was about the place and the
clean washing of a man lay on a chair.
A trap door leading from the studio
into the garnet was broken and was
hanging by a cord. A heavy ladder
evidently used for reaching the roof
was lying broken at one side of the
room. The police searched among the
rafters carefully as it was thought that
possibly the occupants of th3 place
had been murdered and their bodies
hidden there. Nothing was found, how
ever.
Back of the studio is Chinese tene-
ment house, and the hallway by the
the studio gives easy access to the bal
cony of the tenement house. There was
no evidence of blood about save some
blotches on a small piece of paper, as
if some one had been splitting blood.

terry of the photographers whereabouts
had read of the police inquiries in the

DAVIS MAKES A
SCENE AT HOTEL

George A. Davis made another\mel
dramatic scene yesterday when he en-
tered the dining room of the Alexander
Young hotel and saw the Attorney Cen
eral and wife seated at one of the ia
bles.
The coming of Davis, who was the
guest at lunch of former Attorney
General Dole, was heralded by his
voice 1t came ringing up the elevator
shaft, and everyone was looking out
for the respondent. He came in the
dignity of a long coat and black tie,
arguing loudly and beating the air with
| his arms. He scowled at one and
smiled at another until he perceived the
Attorney General.
\ Drawing down his brows he looked at
the man whom he wished to annihilate,
and walked closer to the table at which
ne was seated. Then his hand mechan-
ically went to his pocket-but not the
back one, which is symbolic of sudden
death in some circles of society, as he
bent over the table to make his glance
more piercing and sent it at the Attor-
ney General. So he passed, turning to
glance over his shoulder at the object
of his ocular assault. Even then he
was not through with his exhibition.
CHANGING about with a Chesterfieldian
smile he greeted some favored acquain-
tances, only to turn again staring fix
eddy and fiercely at the Attorney Cen
eral, sitting a few feet away. a lady at
one of the tables snickered and said:
why doesn't he look CROSSE
But nothing else happened even
though Davis had remarked the day
before in the hearing before the Su-
preme Court that he couldn't always
l-eep his pistol in his pocket.

AN IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION.

A city improvement association Is
one of the urgent needs Of Honolulu
We already have so many associations,
lodges and clubs that it may be object
ed that another one is unnecessary OF

attend meetings and other duties
There is an abnormal demand on
the time of many leading citizens TO
attend meetings, both corporation and
charitable; but for this reason, no new
| Commercial Company has any dill
Guilty in securing a Board Of Directors
II there is money involved in the prop
osition.
There is money involved in an I'm
provement Association, and a gooo
deal more besides.
There is money in clean streets, well
kept sidewalks, absence Of tumple
down shanties and disreputable fences;
freedom from monster ads Of whiskey
and patent medicine plastered over the
scenery. This kind of city is
pleasanter city to live in than one In
which the reverse is the case. There
is money in it also. Municipal cleanli-
ness and beauty pays in dollars and
cents. A beautiful city attracts
dirty shiftless one repels. A well dress
ed, alert appearing business man has
a great advantage over a dowdy'
slouchy one. other things being equai
his credit will be better and his in
fuence greater. 1t is the same with a
city.
It is entirely natural that this should
he so. Cleanliness and beauty give the
city a distinct air Of prosperity, which
will most certainly improve its credit,
attract capital, settlers and tourists.
The formation of an Improvement
Association does not call for many
people nor much money. A few men
and women with their hearts In the
work, will accomplish far more by
mere suggestion and persuasion, than
a multitude of Indifferent ones with a
sack of money. Has not the time ar |
rived for the Inauguration of an I'm |
Association in Honolulu.

yesterday recalls the fable of the

they let the man go.

One of the questions which might
properly employ the next Federal Grand
Jury-despite the exodus of certain par

is whether there is anything in the

planters. The charge is very definitely
made and is certainly worth sitting.

Got 1t Twisted.

Little nine-year-old Rachel. whose
failing it was to get stories somewhat
twisted. once heard the conundrum OF
the rat and the thirty ears Of corn. 1t
ran thus: There were thirty ears Of
corn in bin and q rat came along
and carried away three ears every
night; How long did it fake him to
carry away the thirty cars? The an
swer. of course, was thirty nights.
counting the rats two ears and one ear
Of corn.
Rachel thought this Il wonderfully
good joke and FASTENED to tell her old
or brother. whom she well knew al
ways appreciated anything along the
inc OF good joke. Rushing up TO him
she said: ''Oh. Newman, Eve got the
best conundrum you ever heard. See if
you can guess it, And thus she went
on: There was Il bag of potatoes in Il
bin and Il rat came along and carried
away three potatoes every night. How
long did it take him to carry away the
whole bag?"
