ClRcUMSTANTIAL EVIDENCE.
1t All Seemed to Point to Matrimonial
Intentions,

It All seemed 10 FONT 20 matrimonial
Intentions.
"a case of almost conclusive cir
cumstantial evidence indicating matri-
monial intentions On the part of a
bashful young clerk in my division
has been causing that young man con-
siderable embarrassment of late" said
2. chief of a division lin the Wal De-
partment the other Gay.
"The other Hvening the young man
in question t(went out with a young
lady to make a call on some friends
whoTeSde in a certain apartment
house in tn.] northwest part Of the
city. 1t was a rather new structure,
and since the young fellow was not &C
quainted with the exact location he
found considerable difficulty in locat-
ing the place. While, together with
the young lady, e was wandering
along the street keeping his eye open
for the fiat a fellow clerk in the de.
partment happened along, and the per-
picked young man with the young
lady sought his friends aid in the
difficulty by inquirfng the location Of
the fiat. The proper direction was
given, and then the passing clerk
seemed struck with a sudden bright
thought. His face lighted up with the
significance Of his idea, and grasping
the hand of his fellow clerk, he said:
"'And say, old man, there are some
fine apartments in that house. Be
just the thing for you. I thought you
had been unusually ~preoccupied at the
office lately with something besides
your work. Congratulations, old man.
Don't forget your Uncle Fuller when
you use the p~asteboards. Good luck
to both of you
"And then the enthusiastic and
uuick-witted friend moved on, leaving
the young man and his companion
looking intently at the edge of the
| pavement, with the color in their faces
corresponding to the glow of the set
ting sun.
"Now the circumstances in the case
all pointed to the marriage of the
young clerk as a natural sequence.
The young man had recently been ad-
mitted to the bar, he was slated for
promotion in the Office, he had just
applied for his annual leave, and had
been talking of taking a trip. Then,
again, it was known among the boys
that he had been saving up his salary
for the past few months, and had &C
cumulated a little bunch of money in
the bank. In the face of these facts,
together with the incident of his look
ing for a fiat in company with a
handsome young lady, there seemed
but one conclusion to be reached in
the matter, and the brother clerk
reached that conclusion on the run.
"Of course the matter was spread
about the Office next day, and the
bashful young clerk now has an ache
in his right arm from shaking hands
with the boys, who insist on congratu'
lating him on his coming matrimonial
venture, although he denies emphati.
cally that he has any such intention.
The boys refuse to accept his explana-
ton of the case and are waiting eoe
the cards.'-Washington Star.

FORESTER
HALLS TOUR
Spent Ten Days on
Maui in KuIa
District.

The United States Forestry Bureau
is taking a practical interest in for
estry preservation on the Islands, and
has sent Forester Hall from Washing
to investigate and report on forestry
matters and cognate subjects. Mr..
Hall has spent the last ten days on
Maui, a large part of the time in the
observations of the conditions that ex-
list here. He states that at present
more attention should be paid to the
preservation of the forests we have
than to the matter of reforest;ng. He
states however that in due time the
matter of reforesting should be taken
up, and intimates that the U. s. For
estry Bureau at Washington viii lend
material aid at the proper time.
He visited the Kula forest reserve,
and expresses himself strongly in the
matter of protecting and extending
these forests above the 1900 foot
level. 1t is stated that Col. w. H.
Cornwell, who has a lease on some
Of these lands, has offered to sur
render his lease to all above the 1000
foot level, even including some good
corn land, provided he can secure
compensating leases on lands on a
lower level. Forester Hall strongly
approves of the proposition, and as
Supt. Cooper and L. A. Thurston
were in company with Mr.. Hall while
he was inspecting these lands and
the Polipoli springs, it is possible
that the government will see it's way
to exchange leases with Mr.. Cornwell
Mr.. Hall also visited the forest
reserves at the head of the new big
ditch, and finds that they are being
reasonably well protected. He also
suggested the planting of rubber
trees, although productive trees are
not so much the care of the Forestry
Bureau as is the preservation of the
forests Reconsideration News.

CORRECTION OF
MARCONI STORY

Some weeks ago there appeared an
editorial in these columns relative to
an advertisement of Marconi Tele-
graph Co., which appeared in the July
McClure's. In that advertisement was
a statement to the effect that this
Marconi Company had acquired the
Wireless Company in Hawaii. In the
mail which arrived here last Sunday
correct advertisement mentioned was
received by the Herald:
New York, August Is, 1903.
Editor Hawaii Herald;
Sir: Messrs. Munroe & Munroe have
called my attention to an editorial in
your paper of July 23rd, in which you
point out an error in the Marconi ad
appearing in McClure's for July. Will
you allow me to apologize for that err
ror and to explain it's presence in the
copy of the magazine you received.
The ad as first prepared contained the
error and, unfortunately it was not
discovered until after eight or ten thou
and copies of the magazine had been
published. We Immediately made new
plates and the balance (some 3S0,000)
appeared, as the enclosed clipping
shows. In mailing out our magazines,
however, the first printed are shipped
to the most distant points, so, natural
ly, the first few thousand off, contain
ing the error, were shipped to Hawaii,
Mexico and the Pacific slope. I trust
this explanation will clear Munroe &
Munroe of any desire to misrepresent
the facts in the case.
Very truly yours,
H. H. MCCLURE.

PROGRESS ON THE
BIG MAUI DITCH

Mr. NJ. NJ O'Shaughnessy returned
from Kauai by Wednesdays Maui, and
favored the News with some extremely
interesting facts concerning the i'm
mense ditch contracts which he is
handling. The big ditch at Makaweli is
now completed and ready to be turned
over to the plantations. This ditch has
daily capacity of over 100000 gal
Ions, built as substantially as were the
old Roman aqueducts and it will doubt
less stand for centuries as a monument
and projectors.
Excellent progress is being made on
the new big ditch which is to supply
central Maui with irrigating water.
Over 1900 feet of tunnel were run last
month, which is a record breaking
month. and by the first of next July the
ditch will be completed to the head of
the present bitches. In the meantime,
work has been begun on the lower end
of the ditch and it is probable that an
other year will see the waters of east
Maui flowing on the Kihei Plantation.
The actual value of this permanent
water supply to central Maui in the fu-
ture is almost beyond computation, as
it will almost do away with pumping
plants as we'll as largely increase
the area of sugar lands.
In a couple of weeks Mr.. O'Shaugh-
messy leaves for Hawaii to look into
the matter of the big Kohala ditch
