HAS PLANS
FOR FARMS
ON MAUI
BoydLookingIn Into
Agriculture on
That Island.

MAUI, Feb. 28.-The small farming
idea has taken strong hold on the isl
and OF Maui where, as a matter of
fact, the first small farming ever at
tempted on the islands was done, long
years ago, as kamaainas will remem-
Der. The Maui News, in its last is
sue, has this to say editorially upon
the subject:
The Islands do not present the
field for small farming, which the vir-
gin west presented to eastern farmers,
and 1t would be cruel kindness to lure
an indiscriminate immigration of the
farming class from the states to the
Islands. But it is no less true that
intelligent small farming will win out
in the end on the Islands. Proposed
immigrants should be told in advance
OF the blight and insect pests which
they will have to encounter. But 1t is
sure that the ingenuity of man can
overcome these temporary hindrances
to small farming, and men will come
here whose energy and knowledge will
win them success and competency on
thousands Of small farms throughout
the Islands"
In the news columns OF the same
paper is the following with reference
to the plans Of Land Commissioner
Boyd and his plans for the advance
ment of the small farming idea on
that island:
Land Commissioner e. S. Boyd has
spent very active ten days on Maui,
and If the plans which he has formu-
lated are carried out, the matter of
small farming, of which he is an ar
dent advocate. will receive a much
needed impetus on Maui.
He will recommend that the Kamao-
lie tract consisting of $500 acres be
subdivided into homesteads in lots of
40 to 60 acres. This land is chiefly
valuable for hog and stock raising,
with some grass land, which Is being
destroyed by the spread of lantana.
The Alae tract consisting OF between
500 and 600 will be subdivided into 20
and 40 acre tracts. This is good corn
American farmers.
The Omaopio tract, formerly leased
to the Haleakala Ranch, is panini land,
about 1900 acres in area, principally
valuable for hog and cattle raising,
with some good farming land. This
tract will be subdivided into 40 and
at Keanae, of about 1000 acres; Is to be
surveyed and subdivided into 20 and
40 acre tracts. This is the best piece
OF land offered, and colony Of Amer
lean farmers should be able to do
well here.
Eight hundred acres Of the Kahaku-
loa tract is to be subdivided into two
tracts of 400 acres each. and an at
tempt to establish dairy farms on them
will be made. If successful other tracts
in that district will be turned into
dairy farms.
With reference to the immense area
of land between Keanae and Nahiku,
Mr.. Boyd states that the government
is prepared to subdivide and sell It
to homesteaders, but that good road
from Nahiku through this district to
connect with the road at Kailua Is
seriously needed, and he shall urge
the construction Of such a road.

4 PROMINENT CITIZEN
 STRICKEN YESTERDAY
B. A. Fickas Died at an Early Hour
 This Morning.

Mir B. A. Fickas yesterday morning suffered an apoplectic stroke at his oi- flee in the Monihon building, and at late hour last night his life was almost despaired of. He was at his desk, when he felt a sudden sharp pain in the head A few minutes later he was ov- ercome by the stroke and fell uncon- scious. That was a little after Y o'clock. Dr. Duffield was sent for. He advised against the removal of the stricken man to his home, and he was placed in the most comfortable position possible in his office. At various times during the day he recovered conscious ness and talked of his condition. Once he wanted to get up. The periods of consciousness were not of very long duration and late at night it could not be said that there had been an improve ment of his condition on which a hope of recovery could be hung.
 The occurrences of consciousness be came less frequent as the night pro- cceded and after 6 o'clock there were none at all Then the physicians al most abandoned hope and there was only a conjecture as to the hour of death All afternoon the street ln front of the office was thronged with the friends of Mir. Ficlzas and he was surrounded by the members of his fam fly until long after midnight. At that time he had not been unconscious for seven hours. At 10 o'clock there was a | favorable lowering of the temperature. Later it rose again. At ? o'clock this morning it fell; the eXtremeties had | grown cold. the pulse was silent as to | the watchers at the bedside and the physicians was sent for.
 MT F'ickas had a similar but much less violent attack at Iron Springs two years ago.
 The news of the stroke quickly spread over town, for he is not only one of the earliest residents of Phoenix, but though not an old man yet. he Is one l of the pioneers of the territory. Ht came to Arizona. in 1876. His first resi- dence was at Maricopa Wells. He after that went to Tucson and became chic
 clerk of the council of the legislature which sat at Prescott in 1879. It wa: about that time that the Tombstone excitement sprang up. and MT. Ficka. was among the earliest on the ground He was elected to the next legislature rom 1oIhDSlone' NhlCH was theh part of Pima county. It was durins that legislature that Cochise county
 was created. He served for severa years as clerk of the court of that coun- ty. He came to Phoenix in 1886 and en. gagged in the real estate and abstract business, which he has successfully | followed ever since.
 He is 5 years of age and is native of Indiana though before coming to this territory he lived for some time ir Missouri and San Diego, Cal.

THE CHOCTAWS
First Annual Picnic to Be Held Some
 wnere Tomorrow

There is to be something doing to- morrow. and the Choctaws are the ones who are going to do it. Just who the Choctaws are and what they are go- ing to do is a matter of much cor lecture, but it is secretly intimated that as a clan they are all right and as for doing things they are better.
 The Choctaws are an organization of civilized Indians. They haxe all the civilization of the twentieth century, and put with it all the methods for hay ing fun that have been conceived bv man, either savage or civilized, since the discovery of America by Christc- pher Columbus. It is a secret society in the strictest sense of the word. No one knows who the big chief is except the members and they can hold a meet ing anywhere where a half dozen are gathered together, no matter how many of the philistines are present. The.r actions speak louder than words, tO familiar spirits, but they don't spell anything to an outsider.
 The enterprise planned for tomorrow is big picnic, to be held somewhere
 on the river at place selected by old Leather Stocking. and it is to be called
 the first annual Choctaw picnic. a phrase indicating that if anyone sur wives there may be other annual pic
 mics as the years go by. Carriages will | leave Center street at o'clock Sunday
 morning, and will be piloted to the pic nic ground by old Socks himself. Any | body can go who gets an invitation providing he is on time when the war
 cry is given. To get an invitation one must either be a Choctaw or he
 recommended to a Choctaw by some
 body who speaks the language. Tne picnic party will be limited to 100, un-
 less there are more good people who | want to go. Tickets were parceled out among the braves and when they are | all sold there will be none left. A lot
 of good things are likely to happen al
 this picnic that never happened any ] where before and that are not now on ! the bills, but among the things that have been provided for will be a bar becue dinner with trimmings. Ther1 will be two barbecued yearlings, baked beef heads, four sides of beef ribs, etc, 1 in the meat line. There will be other things to go with the meat and plenty of lubricants to accelerate mastication | Among them will be lemonade, soda
 water, ditch water and camels' milk ! Chilli beans and music will be served ! for dessert.

MIR. FICKAs DEAD.

Death occurred little after o'clock this morning. There was hardly at any time a hope that he would survive. His physicians had said eight hours before that he might live until some hour to- day, but certainly he could not get well.
 MT. Fickas was one of the foremost men of the city in social and business affairs. He had Q great interest in the public schools and for a long time he had been an active member of the school board. He was connected with many secret society and fraternal or ganizat tions, the Knights of Pythia5, the A. O. T.. w., the Odd Fellows, the Moderns and the Fraternal Brother hood. He had also taken an active part in politics. and was one of the leading democratic politicians of the territory. He was at one time chairman of the democratic territorial central commit tee. He was most admirable hus- band and father, a kind neighbor, and altogether d man in whose death the community sustains a loss.
 He leaves beside his family, consist ing of his wife and a daughter. Bessie,

source Of Nervous Impulse.

The theory OF Loeb and Matthews
that the nervous impulse. although 1t
brings in electricity. is far from re.
garding the transmission of that i'm.
pulse as identical with simple cleo
trical current. In a medical journal.
DR.. O'Brien advocates the old theory
that -ervous current and electrical
current are identical. because, first,
electricity is always present when
nerves act; second. electricity is the
form OF Iorce which would do the
work required; third, because the ter
minal and central mechanisms con-
nected with the nerves correspond to
the terminal and central mechanisms
connected with electrical system OF
communication, and do similar work
in sending, receiving. relaying. switch
ing, transforming. accumulating, re-
tarding. distributing and translating
Impressions, and. fourth. because cleo
tricity, with such construction of con-
ductors and of terminal mechanisms,
is the only form OF force we know Of
that would do all the work required.
