The members Of the council are to
consider the sidewalk matter tonight.
according to reports. They should take
the trouble to gauge the sentiment Of
the people in general and not few in
terested property owners, before they
decide on what material to use. 1t
seems to be generally regarded as fool
ish to permit some Of the pavements
along 8 modern thoroughfare to DO of
stone and some of brick. The object
of such improvements is to Improve,
and there is just as much demand for
pavements of modern and lasting ma
terial as for having the streets them
selves of substantial build. If the
sidewalks are not to be improved it
would probably be just as wise and
satisfactory r. Leave the streets also as

Locals Took One From the Jack
son Boys Yesterday.
A Large Crowd Was Out and jackson
Seemed Observation-Disclosures Pitched
Good Game.
PADUoAH IS AT JACKSON

The Paducah league club won iti
first game yesterday afternoon, defeat
ing the crack team from jackson.
Tenn, by q score Of s to l In the
presence of about 9, 900 people, among
whom were many ladies, at Wallace
park.
jackson surprised those who had
heard Of the good article of ball they
put up. and who saw them play the 10
to game Saturday afternoon. 1t
looked to many as il the visitors were
not trying very hard to play. Owing
to shortage in men jackson loaned
Paducah CASTOR, one of the crack play
ers OF the jackson nine. who did
stunts in left field for Paducah.
There was no remarkable playing dur
ing the game unless the fact that Pa
ducnh made fewer errors than usual
can be classed with the remarkable.
Hedges pitched a good game, but
was wild at times. The Jackson man
was batted freely.
The summary will show excellent
work done by the local team although
it was badly crippled. Perry, who
caught the first two innings, had a
finger knocked out Of place by pick
up from Hedges and Clifford had to
finish out the game behind the bat,
Mackie going to Clifford's place at
short. This is where Mackie made
hs errors. Clifford csught an excel
lent game and also did Perry up until
the time he was injured. The jackson
boys lost on errors. as the Paducah
team has been losing. CASTOR who
played the left field for the local
team pitched the game against Padu-
cab yesterday. He made several grand
stand plays and won the admiration n
the 1000 spectators. Sexton's work
was more than satisfactory and Muir
ray did good work at third. S:mcox
on first played better ball than ever,ss
the above score will show.
The local team left with the Jack
son boys today for jackson for a
series Of games and will return We'd
nesday to practice for the opening
game Friday.

journals who are said to have put up
the job to create sensation. II the
reporters really strung the police and
public with the story, IL shows that

as easily buncoed, or made the proud
purchasers of . gold brick, as they
were led to waste several days trying

BY reporters. Nothing. scarcely, need
be put beyond the yellow journal re-
porters, but certainly the metropolitan
police were not expected to bite at
such a rank and palpable canard.

PINEAPPLE PROSPECTS.
1 might continue to point out special
kinds of fruit that thrive with good
care and attention to necessary condi-
tions, but I will close by naming the
pineapple, the one fruit that is receiv-
ing the attention of horticulturists on
the Islands to any considerable extent.
This fruit comes into bearing in from
eighteen to twenty-four months for the
first crop and will fruit each year
thereafter from the rattoons for from
three to five years when given proper
space. 1t has few enemies, which
are easily controlled, and is easy of
culture.
Five years ago it was impossible to
get the average man of Hawaii to
talk pineapple" as there was mo
money in it." Had it not been tried
and proved a failure?''
The fruit was all right but could not
be sold. What has brought about the
change of sentiment that prevails to-
day? Merely the stick-to-itiveness of
a few individuals who continued to
plant and sell the fruit for what they
could get, often at loss. They made
people acquainted with the fine quail
ity of the Hawaiian product, just as
the pioneer growers of fruit in Cali
fornia did. and now the fruit sells it
self, and the problem is to supply the
demand.
Pineapple growing and packing is
destined to be next to sugar in line of
| Importance of Island industries. They
grow to perfection and are pronounced
superior to those produced in other
| pinegrowing sections.
They require no protection of any
kind and plantation can be establish
| ed here for one-half as much as in
| Florida, and this, too, with positive
| immunity from cold snaps such as
: periodically visit that country.
| The market is constantly enlarging,
as a quality of fruit that is fit for food
| is available. The average fresh or
canned product found in the markets
today is not such as to encourage the
use of the fruit as an article of regu-
lar diet. The Hawaiian product, once
used, creates demand for more and it
will become as common on the tables
of consumers as are peaches, apricots,
and the other standard fruits of Cali
| fornia. If we maintain the high stand
ard of quality now being put upon the
market and look to the proper distrib-
ution of it, we should control the Amer
lean market at least, as we can pro-
duce the fruit as cheaply as other
pine growing sections. California is
able today to compete in the world mar
kets. successfully, as to price and
quality. with fruits that, twenty-five
/ years ago, it was believed could not be
produced profitably in competition with
| the cheap labor of Europe.
The same general rule will prevail
with our pineapples and other special
lines of fruit culture we may take up.
The country having the greatest nat
ural advantages for producing a given
crop, need not fear the competition OF
its less fortunately situated rivals In
| the production of that crop.

A COMMENTED WOMAN.

Aside from form or features,
she has an attractiveness all her
own. The bloom on her cheek,
the elasticity in her step, the ring
of her voice, her enjoyment Of
life-all these are magnets which
draw others to her side. Wonder
full and valuable as it is, health is
not so difficult thing to obtain
as some discouraged ones think.
Most of the troubles of women a.
rise from impure blood, impaired
nutrition, low vitality and gene
raj debility. Modern science fur
nishes the most successful of REM
edies for these conditions, namely
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION.
1t is palatable as honey and con-
tains the nutritive and curative
properties of Pure Cod Liver Oil,
extracted by us from fresh cod
livers, combined with the Com
pound Syrup of Hypophosphites
and the Extracts of Malt and
Wild Cherry. Taken before meals
it improves the appetite, makes
fat, restores vitality, enriches the
blood and cures those weaknesses
peculiar to the sex, which are
the seat of their troubles. 1t is a
blessing to Tired Wives, Nursing
Mothers and Girls growing into
womanhood. 1t colours the pale
faces and rounds out the hollow
chests. In word, it nourishes
and develops the entire body, and
brings happy surprises to feeble,
hopeless and discouraged suffer-
ers. DR.. E. J. Boyes says: II
have found it a preparation OF
great merit. In a recent case
a patient gained nearly twenty
pounds in two months treat
ment, in which it was the princi-
pal remedial agent" It is the
typical medicinal success of our
age, for time has proved our
claims are supported by results,
and remedy which acts in har-
mony with natures own efforts
and processes. No demand has
been made upon it for relief and
cure, that has not met with in
slant response. Effective from
the first dose. "You cannot be
disappointed in it." at chemists.

NAME OF WISE
\ GOES ON BALLOT

John H. Wise's name will appear up
as candidate for sheriff. He is put up
by the Home Rule party in place of
Robert w. Wilcox, deceased, and in op-
position to A. NJ. Brown, the Republi-
can candidate. AN opinion by Attorney
General Andrews was rendered yester-
day morning. which held that the NOM
ination of Wise presented in due form
on October "a at 1850 a. m, the elec-
ton to take place on November 3, was
within the ten days limit required by
law.
Many decisions in the United States
in such cases exclude both first and last
days, but the Supreme Court of Hawaii
held in the Hooking case, decided in
1892, that nomination filed on Novem-
Der Is for an election held on Novem-
Der 30 was valid where the law required
an interval of fourteen days between
nomination and election. The Attor-
ney General concludes:
This case is directly in point, and
while there are a number of decisions
to the contrary, 1 do not believe that
we are justified under the circum-
stances in concluding that the court
would reverse itself, and therefore ad-
wise you that the nomination of Mr..
John H. Wise, for county sheriff, has
been made in time"
The course advised, which Registrar
BuckIand adopts, will prevent a great
deal of trouble, loss of time and the
defeat of secrecy in balloting, as under
another provision of the law a candi-
date may be substituted for one dying
between nomination and election times
by having his name written upon the
ballot.
