lean farmers are making an experiment
that may mean much for the Industrial
future OF Hawaii. Five years ago they
took up a tract OF Government land,

twelve hundred acres were allotted to

The land was originally overgrown
with lantana and covered by excess Of
vegetable matter. Clearing and plow-

play and restored the soil to a high

climate more bracing than is often to

crop of melons that was expected to
pay a handsome profit fell a prey to
the cutworm. Vegetables were eaten

Senator Bailev's Friend.

The 5000, 900 fee said to have
been earned i'll Wall street by Sena-
tor Bailey, of Texas, gives point to
story told in New Orleans Time
Democrat by a man from Texas
upon the manner in which Bailey
got his start.
Bailey" said the Texas man,
was struggling young lawyer in
the new section into which he had
moved. Time had rolled around
to nominate Democratic candidate
for Congress. The day of the con-
vention had been set. 1t was con-
ceded that a certain old man in
Congress would be given the noini.
nation again.
Having much leisure and but
little money, he thought he would
walk to the convention. After he
had been on the road for some time
a farmer drove up behind him.
'Wanter git in an ride? he said
to the young lawyer, and Bailey
accepted gladly.
Going to the convention ?
asked Bailey, after awhile. Yep
said the farmer. Ever hear of
young lawyer named Bailey around
here?' asked Bailey. Nope said
the farmer. Good speaker, bright
fellow, I understand suggested
Bailey. 'S'poseso, said the farmer.
Yes continued Bailey, and he
will be over there to-day, and / tell
you what we'll do. Well call OIL
him to make a speech. You see
all your friends, tell them about
Baily, and we'll call on him.
"The farmer said all right. No
more was said about the matter un-
til there was lapse in the conven-
ton during the preliminary move
ments of the body. Suddenly the
old farmer got up and suggested
that the convention hear from Mr..
Bailey. a risin' young lawyer of
these diggin's, he said, an feller
who talks like putin out fire.
Bailey! Bailey Baileyv more than
a dozen yells went up, and Bailey
came forth. Joe Bailey made one
OF the hottest speeches of his life,
and the upshot of the whole thing
was that the risin' young lawyer of
these diggin's got the nomination
for Congress, and is now Senator
Bailey, of Texas. "-BoSton Pest

As a Driver of Trotters Millard
Sanders Reigns Supreme.
Remarkable Turf History of the Man
who Drove Lou Dillon when She
Made the Record of n Mile
I'm Two Minutes.

Millard F. Sanders, who drove Lou
Dillon in her recent race at Readville,
Mass, when the sensational trotting
mare stepped mile in 200, not only es-
tablishing worlds record, but turning
a trick which has been the ambition of
the trotting horse world to reach since
Maud S. brought the mark within hall
ing distance, is a St. Louisan born and
bred.
Though he has not visited the Mound
City In 25 years, he is we'll known to the
older residents OF that staid and venera-
Die town.
His success with harness horses dur
ing the last few years has been nothing
short of phenomenal, notable among his
achievements being his campaign with
the great mare Amelia, 2:o6A, during
the 1902 season.
Mr.. Sanders is a pupil Of the old-time
noted reinsman, r. s. Carr, who, In the
SOS, enjoyed the distinction Of owning
two OF the greatest trotters of the day
Dixie, 2:30, and Tackey, 1926.
At that time Mr.. Sanders was just
branching out as successful driver. The
black horse, Guy, which won free-for-
all. beating Rosaline Wilkes and White
Stockings, among others, was the first
horse he drove.
MIR. Sanders went from st. Louis to
Cleveland, o., and secured employment
with W. J. Gordon. Mr.. Gordon owned
a large stock farm and Mr. Sanders was
commissioned to do the purchasing.
He was told to buy the horse Of the
century" Clingstone, 2:14, was Mr..
Sanders purchase, and that horse driven
to high-wheel sulky, was one of the
stars Of his time.
Clemma L, 2:15; Mambrino-Sparole,
2:17; Nobby, 2:17; and William H., 2:1S,
were among Clingstones associates at
the Gordon farm the years Mr.. Sanders
was In charge.

bills the night before. Much to his
surprise the purse was not there, and
an extensive search failed to reveal it.
Shortly afterward the dog came into
the room, apparently much depressed
and lifeless. Recognizing the symp-
toms as identical with those which
had appeared when the dog had swal-
lowed the atomizer and knowing his
appetite for articles of all kinds. Mr..
Hamlin's suspicious were at once
aroused. He watched the dog closely
all day, vainly coaxing it to eat, but
the animal refused to do so.
In the morning the dog was taken
to veterinary surgeon for an exami-
nation. Bismuth was injected into the
stomach to darken it's walls. and the
animal was then subjected to an ex-
animation under the strongest test of
the X-rays. To the astonishment of
the surgeon. the purse was located in
the dogs stomach and the 500 gold
piece which was in the purse was
plainly visible. A successful opera
tion was performed and the purse re-
covered
