W1GGS, THE PITCHER

Everybody in this vicinity leMem-
bers Wigs, the tall and invincible
pitcher whom the Milton baseball
team starred through here two years
ago. In a close game on the Chau-
tauqua grounds, in which Wigs was
striking out Devils Lakes hard
hitters, an enthusiastic rooter, rose to
his feet in the bleechers and exclaim.
ed: "Ladies and gentlemen: I'm
mediately after the game Prof. Wigs
will give an exhibition by wadipg
across the lake." This was more than
Wigs could stand and he went to
pieces and Devils Lake won the game.
Wigs is now pitching for Cincinnati
and the Chicago Chronicle has this to
say of him:
Cincinnati turned Wigs loose.
He is a grandson of Mrs. Wigs of the
cabbage patch and got his first lessons
in throwing while pitching s%auerkraut
in the head onto his granddad's tuck
wag
Early in life he showed marked
ability and often, indeed, pitched
large heads of cabbage clear, over the
wagon. This made his grandmother
very angry and it is related that often
she sprinkled him with a small sap
ling while he rested his stomach on
hor knees. 1t was Mrs. W.

Abraham Lincoln for work and the
story Is often told Of Eo,W one day he
made r>sssir77v Half a hundred haycocks
and thea pitched them onto a wagon.
At one SINE he also pitched. head
long down a Montana precipice and
in his youthhood became quite
fatttous at pitching pennies for ginger
bresf!!. He was always a good QUOT
pitcher and it is also related of him
that he would pitch into a fight at
the least yrorocation.
Then he began to pitch baseballs
and travelled by easy stages from Sill
ven Gulch out i'm Montana to Cincin.
natl The inheritance from his
his name. and his training
with bis grandmother in the cabbage
patch and turnip field carried him
along swiftly and then n day he
ball in Chicago.
1t wasn't exactly like pitching cab.
Dages and hay, he thinks that maybe
likes the old game better. Any
way he grew very tired in the second
inning when the microbes got to him

or a pass straight to Silver Gulch.

One of the internal revenue taxes

One of the internal revenue taxes
provided by congress to meet the ex-
pense of the Spanish war was a tax
of two cents on each pack of cards
manufactured in the United States.
The usual pack contains SO cards, Of,
with joker, 50, but for the sake
of uniformity the number was fixed
by congress at 81, says the New York
Sun.
The government revenues from the
war tax On playing cards amounted
to about $1,000 for each working day,
and assuming that all the packs were
full decks the average number manu-
factured in each year was Is, COO
packs, or $50, 900, 900 cards. The popu-
lation of the United States is, approx
imatsly, 10000, 900, and there were ten
cards manufactured each year for

WATCHING COLORADO.

Investors throughout the entire east

ed activity throughout the entire state
of Colorado. Every mining camp in
the state is awakening with the dawn
OF spring and money is pouring in
from every direction to assist in the
development of properties having a
decent prospect.
Nor is the attention of investors
confined to the mining camps, says
the The Mining News. Many of the
moneyed men of the country have rea.
lized that big fortunes are to be made
from conservative oil Investments, and

high grade of the oil and the ready
market right at hand, answer all the
requirements of the man who under
stands this class of Investments, and
as "A result there are today more wells
going down in the district than at any
one time in the history of the field

wonderful possibilities of the Florence
oil fields are not fully realized, not
withstaDding the fact that one we'll
alone has produced over million
dollars and is still pumping.
The anthracite and bituminous coal
fields of the state are also receiving
some attention from the capitalist,
but not as much as they are entitled
to.
Without doubt Colorado today offers
the best opportunity for safe and
profitable Investment of any state in

TO HAVE UNIFORM
COURT PRACTICE

First Judge j. T. De Bolt, of the
First judicial Circuit, has been en-
gagged for two months past, in the in
tervals of almost daily court engage
ments, preparing Rules of Practice for
the Circuit Courts of the Territory.
The rules now in vogue in the First
Circuit We're prepared by Judges Hum
phreys, Gear and Robinson, but are
of doubtful legality from the fact that
the law directs that the rules shall be
promulgated by the Circuit Judges of
the Territory. Circuits of the other
islands have rules of their own, prob
ably for the most part the old rules of
the Hawaiian Supreme Court before
the Circuit Courts We're established.
Judge De Bolt deems it highly de-
sirable that the practice should be
made uniform throughout the Terri
tory. He will welcome suggestions
from the other Judges as well as from
attorneys before making a final draft
of the Rules to be promulgated by all
OF the Judges according to law. To
this end he will send copies of his
preparation when completed to his col
leagues on the bench.

ON HOME RULE

When the question of permitting APP
peals from our Territorial Supreme
Court to the United States Supreme
Court was first brought up, l was in
clinel to favor a law permitting such
appeals, but after carefully consider
ing the matter / am decidedly against
any such law. There has been always
in the past clear working majority
of able and conscientious men on our
Supreme Court Bench. and we have nc
reason to believe that it will be any
different in the future. l believe that
it is decidedly better that there should
be occasional miscarriages of justice,
than to subject litigants to the expense
and delays occasIoned by appeals to the
U. S. Supreme Court.
Upon the question of appointment !
fail to see how any member of this
community can be willing to admit that
we have not a sufficient number of
honest men in this Territory, possess
ing the ability and qualifications re-
qured to fill, not only judicial posi-
tons, but all the other positions. 1t
the foundation principles of American
Institutions to place strangers to rule
over U.S. The rule is no less impera-
tive when the President appoints than
when the people elect. Fancy our fell
low citizens electing a nonresident to
be our Governor. or to fill any other

law than running to Washington with
such a. purely local matter. I doubt
very much IL Congress will have any
thing to do with 1t.
"Then, again, the passage OF the
County Act by Congress would not be
a certain assurance that it would not
etill contain defects on which it might
be attacked. No doubt the lawyers
who framed the bill are little sensi-
tive to the danger of its being declared
null and void on account OF mistakes
they overlooked. Yet the bill to De
submitted to Congress would have 10
be prepared by lawyers and might, as
likely as the old one, be attacked after
passage upon entirely new grounds
Then it would have to be tested In our
courts Just the same as the present
law"

en- no action relative to the mission OF
Mr.. Hatch to Washington.
Speaking for himself Mr.. Smith stat
ed that until that day he had been
doubtful upon the question NOW
however, from information he had re-
ceived he believed that Mr.. Hatch's
errand was n wise step. He had been
convinced that, unless the uncertainty
over the status of the County ACT were
speedily ended. chaos would result.
HILO TO ACT.
A semi-private letter received yes

are being laid by well-intentioned peo-

MOLOKAI VISITED
BY TIDAL WAVE

John II. Wilson, engineer, returned
in the Lehua yesterday from doing
surveying for the Kaulapapa wharf
construction. He reports what he
believes to have been the action OF a
tidal wave last Sunday on the wind
ward side of Molokai.
A big sea washed away two houses
at Kalaupapa. At Pelekunu the in
coming waves rushed clear through the
houses on the beach, causing general
CONSERVATION. Taro patches We're
flooded. The sea reached point 25C
feet inshore of the highest former tide
mark.
The flooding prevailed all along the
coast from Kalaupapa to Halawa fol
about two hours. A strange feature
one that favors the tidal wave theory
was that of smooth water in the ocear
quarter of a mile from shore.
