THAT FATAL NEGLECT.

A tremendous majority of the
evils in the world arise from
mere neglect. The worst dis
eases we suffer from and die of,
steal on us unawares. A bleed
ing wound, or a sudden sharp
pain, we jump to relieve either
of them in a twinkling. But
dull feeling in the head, loss Of
appetite, failure of force and
snap, a little feverishness at
night, gloom and depression a
bout nothing in particular,
tendency to be irritable over tri-
hes, why should You be anxious
on these grounds? No doubt
they will pass eff like a drift
ing cloud and you will be all
right again. We are apt to rea-.
SON thus, and fancy these symp-
toms to have no serious mean
ing. Unchecked and only half
understood the trouble creeps on
until it eliminates in local or
ganic disease difficult to cure.
The blood poisons, Of which the
feelings named are signs and
warnings, may end in any one
or more of a dozen things

Food Supply of the
City in Grave
Danger.
Drink Pure Water, and Let Surface
Supply Go to the
Land.

Speaking of the Pauoa water
scheme. said Prof. Curtis ]. Lyons
yesterday. "it occurs to me that most
important feature of the matter has
been altogether overlooked. That is
the taro industry in the vicinity of Ho-
nolulu. We have heard a great deal.
lately. about the raising of food prod
ucts to be consumed here. No one
doubts the economy of that. Well. the
taro is most important food product.
even aside from poi and from the fact
that it is the staple food OF the natives.
The taro itself is a vegetable of high
nutritive properties. All old timers ap-
preciate this. think, and all of them
use it more or less. Now, the taro
patches in the Pauoa valley form
very large part of the field
from which taro comes into the mar
ket of Honolulu, and L do not think
it is right to take away the water
that is absolutely needed for the cult
walton of that field. 1t does not make
a great deal of difference who grows
the taro. either. In fact. that does not
enter into the question at all.
The important point is that the taro
is grown there. and If the water is TAX
en- for public use it cannot be grown.
81 do not know the area of the taro
patches in the Pauoa valley. but 1t is

FERRIS WANTS
A NEW TRIAL

E.A. Douthitt, as attorney for George
Ferris, under sentence Of death, for
murder in the first degree, yesterday
asked for rehearing on the motion
for a new trial The grounds for the
motion are that the record does not
show that the defendant was ever ar
raigned for murder, or that he was
present at the impanelIing of the jury
or trial of the cause, or that he was
in court when the death sentence was
passed. or that he was asked whether
he had anything to say before sentence
was passed.
An affidavit by E. C. Peters in sup
port of the motion is appended.

CLAIMANTS
CHANCE NOW
But One Bond Bid
For of Whole
Amount.
Will Now Be Offered
In the Open
Market.
Il Claimants Accept Bonds the
Fire Claims Win Be Paid
at Once.


There was but one bid in the hands
of the Executive when, precisely at
noon yesterday the bid for the fire
claims bonds was opened In the pres
ence of Governor Dole. Secretary Car
ter and other department officials. The
bid was scaled in a small envelope, and
1t wasn't known whether 1t contained
an offer for the whole issue or for one
bond. The opening OF the envelope
soon settled that question. for the bid
was for but one of the $1,000 bonds. and
it was from Samuel Herrick. an attor-
ney of Washington. D. c. None of the
local banks or any one else put in a
bid. The bid was for par, and all the
other conditions of the regulations were
complied with. but it is doubtful
whether Mr.. Herrick win get the bond
he wants The Governor is given the
discretion OF. refusing any or al bids.
and the fact that Herrick's bond would
be the only one upon which the inter
est would have to be paid at the Wells.
Fargo Bank in New York may deter
the Governor from accepting it.
The bonds will now be offered in the
open market. under the provisions of
the rules prescribed by the Secretary of
the, Interior. These are as follows:
I'm event of no bids being received
pursuant to the public notice. herein
authorized, or should the Bids not pro-
vide, in the judgment of the Governor
of the Territory, for the purchase Of
sufficient number Of bonds, or in case
of the rejection Of all proposals for the
purchase of bonds, or of portion Of
and the acceptance OF others,
the Governor of the Territory is au-
thorized. in his discretion, to sell the
bonds remaining undisposed of at not
less than their face value in open mar
ket; in the latter event, the Judgment
claimant or anyone claiming through
him, shall have the preferential right
to purchase, at not less than their face
value, any of the bonds unsold."
If the fire claimants accept these
bonds there will be no trouble in get
ting rid of the entire issue. Deputy
Auditor Meyers has gone through the
books and found that there are over
five hundred claimants who are entitled
to 81, 900 and over, and if they are viii
ling to take bonds in lieu of cash there
will be no further trouble. Secretary
Carter was of the opinion yesterday
that there could be no payment OF the
fire claims until the bonds are disposed
Of in some manner. He is having pre-
pared the record now of the Fire
Claims Commission for the use Of Mr. |
who will probably be out
in few days The bonds can now be
given to the fire claimants. according
TO the orders of the Secretary OF the
and there will be no further
1elay in paying the judgments. provid-
I'd that a sufficient number of the
claimants come forward and accept
he bonds as cash.

Milk From siIaas.

II would be interesting to hear from
some Of our readers that have silos
and feed their children on milk made
from such silage. The Borden Milk
Condensing Company will not permit
the farmers that sell them milk to use
silage as feed. no matter how good
that silage may be. They claim that
milk made from such materials Is I'M
fit for the use Of babes and that the
latter are always made sick when they
use milk made from silage. One OF
the Borden Company declares That the
farmers that have silos win not feed
their own young children on milk SO
made. We feel certain that this is not
so, and that II any users Of silage take
that position 1t is for the purpose Of be-
ing on the safe side of a proposition OF
which they do not feel quite certain,
rather than because they have any
definite information that milk from
silage is unhealthful. The company
also asserts that milk made from
silage is poor keeper. on account of
the unusual amount of acid 1t con-
tains. Is this true? 1t woula appear
not to be, as Mr.. Gurler OF De Kalb.
Illinois. sent silage made milk all the
way to Paris. France, and 1t arrived
in that city in perfectly sweet con-
dition, and no preservative Of any
kind was used in 1t. This would look
as II milk made from silage keeps
fairly well. This milk did not begin
to get "off" till 1t was seventeen days
old. The fact that other condensaries
in the country permit the use OF silage
would seem to indicate that other
milk condensing companies hold a diff
ferent view from that held by the Bor-
den Company. 1t is certainly to be
hoped that some experiments will be
started to demonstrate the value OF
silage made milk as a food for infants.

Wyandottes.

A publication of the Department OF
Agriculture says: The original type
Of the Wyandotte was the Asiatic, and
at the time of origin the Standard fav
ored the Cochin type more than any
olner.
When the Wyandottes were ad-
mitted as breed to a position among
our Standardized fowls they had
reached form and color which were
quite distinctive. The male favored
the Dark Brahma In form and color,
the body color being quite like we'll
splashed Dark Brahma. They had
smooth legs of smoky-yellow shade
and the rose copb. The females, In
form, favored our present Silver.
Spangled Hamburg females. There
was an increasing demand for wyan-
dottes throughout the United States.
Anything that resembled their de.
scription was sent forth to fill the de
mand, and puch inferior stock was
spread about under the name of wyan.
Gotte. Soon tter the original Wyan
dotte there came the Golden strain,
the advent of which made 1t necessary
to select distinguishing name for the
other; thus we have for the two va
rieties the names Silver-Laced wyan.
dottes and Golden.Laced wyandottes.
Conditions Of form and color have
changed from time to time. In the
Silvers we had the very dark, heavy
marking which almost destroyed the
top color Of the males and reduced the
white center In the plumage Of the fe
male (also on the breast Of the male)
to almost stripe or small spot. But
in the Goldens continued effort was
made to preserve clear top color in the
males and the open center OF plum.

Suddenly Milly's ear caught the
sound of chopping. which seemed 10

down the oppositel descent until she
distinctly heard voices. Further on,
at the edge of natural clearing. she
came upon party of travellers camped
beside a newly kindled fire, where
lean, gaunt appearing fellow busted
himself with preparations for the
evening meal. They were eight in all,
a rough, unkempt lot in leathern
jackets and rusty boots. Beside the
cook lay a bag of -four, rasher Of
bacon and two jugs stopped with corn
eobs.
Milly stopped abruptly when she
found herself observed by the curl
GUS eyes of, eight strangers, then
changed her mind and crossed the icy
little brook and made her way toward

of the camp.

English Kings as Horse Breeders.

In considering the breeding OF
draught horses, few words regardins
their origin, as shown by horse his
tory, may not be uninteresting. King
John, about 1899, is credited with hay
ing done much to improve the horses
of his time. by importing 100 Flemish
stations and using them on native
mares, and from such blending as this
sprang the English cart horse. Ed.
ward III (1327), Henry VIII and Queen
Elizabeth Kept up the good work, and
in more recent years the efforts for
the Improvement and development of
horses for heavy work resulted In
free exchange Of animals between
England and Scotland, to their mutual
benefit. Lawrence Drew, who l think
did more to-improve the draught horse
than any other man. credited James,
Duke Of Hamilton Q749) with import.
ing a Flemish stallion for the free use
of his tenantry, and, following that.
large numbers OF English mares were
sent into Scotland for breeding pur-
poses.--Alexander Innes.

He told stories of queer places and

interested until the eight strange
guests made their adieus. When the
company had filed out of the little
cabin door Blaisedale, who was last to

That night when Jim and Milly sat
