The san Francisco Chronicle OF
April IA gives the following account
OF the Sierra's trip, reported in recent
cable dispatches:
The Sierra's voyage. both TO and
from the islands. was notable only for
her fine runs. In one Of which the big
liner distanced the japanese steamer
Hongkong Maru. The latter left Homo
lulu at 10 o'clock in the morning last
Tuesday. the Sierra following at 5:i5
o'clock in the afternoon. When a day
out from Honolulu the Sierra encount-
cred very high northeast wind, with
a high and stubborn sea, these condi-
lions prevailing for thlrty-siX hours,

was passed on Sunday. The Sierra,
anxious to arrive on schedule time
with her 500 bags o. mail for London,
averaged seventeen knots an hour for
the last two days OF her "Trip to port,
and Chief Engineer Nieman is author
Ity for the statement that only the bad
weather prevented the steamer from
larriving five hours sooner. and there
by making a record. An average OF
1886 miles day or an hourly average
of about l59, knots, was made. On her

worked up an average OF 1888 knots

The Chronicle in the same issue
makes the following statement in jus

Though admitting that the Oceanic

steamer last Friday, Captain Filmer
and the other officers of the Maru say
that there was at no time a test of
speed between the vessels, the Hong

to hurry to make connection with the
English mails. Friends OF the yacht

HIS MONEYS WORTH

Kekipi, a young native man, was
fined IS and costs by Judge Wilcox this
morning for disturbing the quiet of the
night. As 1t seems Kekipi really had
fully his So worth of excitement last
night. The trouble started when he
was standing outside his house at late
hour singing and yelling with much
energy. The racket called Lieutenant
Sam Leslie of the mounted patrol to
the place and the long arm of the law
was already stretching forth to gather
in the offender when kekipi saw II
coming and made tracks for his room.
In the race for the foom Leslie came
in close second. Kekipi just managing
to slam the door in his face Kekipi
locked the door. and thinking himself
safe, he proceeded to gioat over his
victory very audibly. lie also gave
vent to critical comment on the police
force in general interpreted with sar-
castle remarks regarding Lesie's per-
sonal character His pean of victory
was cut short in the height of its glory
by Leslie's bursting the door. Kekipi
made u pass at the intruder. Leslie
lodged and landed an effective swing
on Kekipi, who went spinning into his
mosquito net by trying to extricate
himself in a hurry Kekipi got hope.
lessly tangled. The more he kicked
the worse 1t got and soon he was roll
ing around like unto gigantic, giddy
cocoon. He finally concluded that he
had enough and Leslie started to UNI
tangle him in the same manner as a
fish is extricatcd from the net. He was
sent to the police station in the patrol
wagon.

JAPANESE EMIGRANTs.

The japanese Government recently
prohibited any cmigrants from going
to the United States proper for some
reason or other but Hawaii has been
actually made a halfway house by a
number OF japanese laborers. who have
been deluded by certain characters who
represent themselves to be labor re-
cruiting agents from the Pacific Coast
and whose authority is open to doubt
Already complaints have been filed in
/ the japanese Consulate General in Ho-
nolulu by some scores OF japanese lab
orers who have been robbed by the
would-be agents of their entire travel
ling expenses or large portion OF their
deposit. In this connection the Japan
csc Consulate General in Hawaii noti-
fed under date OF March 18th any pros
pective lGborers on the Pacific coast
that II an emigrant go to the United
States proper merely on the strength of
his passport to Hawaii, he is liable ia
penalties. Such are incurred by a per-
son emigrating to a foreign country
without permission or one who has

a small door in the center, just large
enough for one sheep to go In and

E~x-Convict Has Designs on Daughter Of

Ex-Convict Has Designs ON Daughter OF
Governor Mickey
Through the heroism Of herself and
little playmates. Miss Elizabeth
Mickey, the S-year-old daughter OF
Governor Mickey and Mrs. Mickey.
frustrated a plan conceived by desper-
ate men to kidnap and carry away n
OF the governors children. The plot
to abduct has been traced to the peni-
Tertiary, and the supposed motive Is
revenge for the death of William
Klein, alias Rhea, who was hanged
for murder. II an attempt was made
at all, and every indication points to
IL, it was concocted by convicts and
the effort was made to execute 1t
through convicts who were recently re-
leased at the expiration of their terms.
The children were playing about the
executive mansion when a stranger
came up and seized Elizabeth. He car
ried her probably half a block. but
as she Is large for her age. weighing
about so pounds. she was able to make
considerable resistance. The other
children gave an alarm and the man
dropped the struggling child and ran
away.
Warden Beemer several weeks ago
informed the governor OF a report
brought to him by a colOred convict
that something was likely to happen
| to the governors children. The ward
en- did not think much about the mat
ter until q similar story came TO him
| the second time. Then he reported u
| to the governor. Not caring to alarm
| his wife, the governor hesitated about
| telling her. He did not regard 1t Sc
riously, as such reports frequently
come from criminals. However. II was
necessary for him to take Mrs. Mickey
into his confidence in order To pro-
tect the children. She requested them
and warned them about going far from
the house. Nothing more was thought
| Of the affair until the day when the
children ran into the house and told
Of the attempt to carry off the daugh-
| ter Elizabeth. The children could not
give a good description of the man.

was given ten days In which to make
an answer. When the case was first

attorney general then took the case

Porter was liable for the amount Ire

The Guinea Hen and Hawks.

It is a superstition that a few gui
c hens in "a flock of fowls win Keep
away hawks, and some farmers pur
chase the Guinea fowls for this pRr-
pose. But 1t Is doubtful II they have
any value at all fO- this purpose. A
poultryman that breeds them says
that IL is n mistake, and that hawks
are nothing for them. This is prob
ably the IA Thus another popular
belief is shattered. The Guinea hen
is also credited with being a good
Watchdog setting up a great chatter
on the approach Of midnight marand
crs. The facts in tho oase seem To be
that the Guinea hen frequently takes
1t into her head to set up a Clattes
whether there are marauders Or moi.
This is, however, nothing against Guh

very edible flesh and are very proftta

in tho future than they have received
in the past.

has held its first meeting and are much
encouraged at the outlook. Accord
ing to the terms imposed by Mr..
Rockefeller, the sum OF $4,000 must
be raised in Nebraska. Fully 10000
has already been pledged. The com-
mittee issued the following statement:
The members of the committee were
a little surprised and very much
pleased to learn that fully $4,000 has
been pledged, or nearly one-third Of
the entire sum which IL Is necessary
TO raise to secure this beautiful new
building for the social and religious
work of the university. These pledges
have /. Sached the committee with very
little formal solicitation, many Of
them being wholly voluntary and COM
ing from all parts of the state. Flo
as yet because of the vacation sea-
son and the scattering of the univer-
sity community during the summer
practically no thorough canvass has
been made. not even of the faculty
and students of the university, and
the interest which is everywhere *
pressed in the temple fund seems al
ready to promise success. The little
adverse criticism which found its way
into the press when the gift Ia first
announced seems to have already dis
appeared. University people are nat
urally most enthusiastic over the tenn
pie fund, not only the faculty and the
present student body. but the great
body Of alumni, now nearly three
thousand strong, most Of whom are
actively at work all yer the state and
from many of whom the warmest ex-
pressions of interest have been heard.
The committee at its meeting laid
plans for prosecuting its work vigor-
ously during the remaining months of
the year for by January 1 slbscrip-
lions must be in had for the total
amount of $33, 600, and an active cam
paign will be begun at once to secure

Mixed Rations for Farm Horses.

breeders. G. W. Burkctt OF the New
Hampshire Station. recently studied
the comparative value of n number of
mixed rations with the station farm
horses during a period Of two years.
The rations were so planned that an
abundance OF nutritive material was
supplied by grain mixtures which were
cheaper than oats. Throughout the
greater part OF the experimental period
hay was fed with the grain. During
a part of the time orn fodder was
used. The comparative merits of the
following five rations were studied In
the first test: Hay 10 pounds, bran .
