Joseph Pulitzer recently cele-
brated the twentieth year of his
proprietorship of the New York.
World" He entered New York
journalism in 1883 after having
made the "Post-Dispatch" a we'll
known St. Louis newspaper.
Mr.. Pulitzer, after serving the
North throughout the Civil War, be-
came a tramp in New York. He
settled in St. Louis in 1868 and be-
came a reporter on the 'Westliche
Post" Ten years subsequently
he founded the "Post-Dispatch."
He was elected to Congress in 1885
but resigned after a few months Of
1t is said that in twenty
years time Mr.. Pulitzer has never
neglected his hard work for sim
gle day and that at all times he has
known what was going forward in
every department of his large news
paper property. He was ffty-six
years old on April 10th. Hard
work during recent years has affect
that he is now almost totally blind

ter was possible. The female mosquito
was the one that did the biting and
the singing. Mr.. Van Dine did not
believe that mosquitoes were bred on
ly in taro patches, rice fields, etc.
but said that these places were only
partly responsible, and that the re-
suits of the campaign would be con-
yincing enough without experiments
in taro fields and rice patches. He
said that the tub, can, and water bar
rel in the yard were more to blame,
and showed also photographs of such
places where he had found mosquitoes
breeding by the thousand.
First must we do away with all
these breeding places" said Mr.. Van
Dine. THE water tanks must be
made mosquito proof; for the lily
ponds use the natural enemies of the
mosquito, and for the remaining use
coal oil. This is as highly important
and must be done just as thoroughly
as the streets are cleaned. and the
garbage collected. Once a week Or
after each rain the oil must be ap-
Piled"
Mr.. Van Dine said that the dragon
fly was very effective enemy of the
mosquito, and two species of gold fish
and the oopu We're also good enemies.

G.. w. Booth Listens Unmoved to His Attorneys
= Plea That he Should Not be Bound
by Ills Implied Fraud.

Charles ". Booth appeared before
the Tax Appeal Court yesterday morn
ing 20 night against paying any taxes
on the amount OF SI2o.7s5 valuation Of
realty. He returned his real estate at
sto4z5 and Assessor J. W. Pratt raised
the assessment TO sls1.2Io. OF this in
crease 100000 represented a two-third
interest in the Pauoa water rights. It
will be remembered that Mr. Booth.
through the Legislature. tried to sell
these water rights TO the Territory Of
Hawaii for s25o.Ooo. that the Legisla-
ture after a strong fight voted s15oOOo
for such purchase and that. but for the
veto OF Governor Dole. the transaction

mouth OF his attorney. Mr.. Booth
pleaded total exemption from taxes of

when he wanted to sell it 10 the Ter

grounds:
1. He had returned the land contain

O. He had made an error of judg-

strong resolutions and the appoint

mosquito campaign was formally inau-
gurated last night at the Young hotel
by the people of Honolulu.
Between three and four hundred peo-

of the mosquito and also the proposed

VAN Dimes METHODS.
D.. L. Van Dine of the United States
Experiment station illustrated his talk
upon the mosquito by stereopticon
views which made the little insects
look like huge scorpions. He said, aft
er describing the life of the mosquito
from the larval stage to the adult,
that the mosquito breeds only in
stagnant water. BY stagnant wa
ter was meant, not that which
contained decaying animal water ne
cessarily, but standing water. The
vegetable matter served as food for
the MOSQUITO and the larvae must
breathe air. 1t was because of this
that the determination of the pest by

Of Interest to Merchants

ILL, writing to one OF our !
changes, gives some very pointed |
facts about mail order houses and |
how to lessen their trade, and |
how some merchants hold their !
customers.
This what he SAYS:
Ii our home merchants would
advertise their goods properly
tine large supply houses would
find their trade falling off in the
county districts.
The big department stores
advertise and give prices on every
article, while the home merchant
if he advertiseS at all, seldom
quotes prices.
we like to read in our home
papers the prices for which we
can buy goods from our home
dealer, together with descrip-
tiOn of the goods, so that we may
know what we can purchase from
our home stores.
The home merchant, n;ne
nine times in ten, sells his goods
as cheap as the same grade OF
goods are sold by any of the big
houses. but their customers don
know it.
A merchant must not think
that even his best customers are
50 familiar with his goods and
prices that he knows all bout it
without being Informed.
We can buy as cheap at home
as We can anywhere, and it is the
merchants duty to educate his
custome-s to that belief.
Printers Ink is the greatest
business educator.
An average of about $500 a
month IS sent away from Irving
ton to mail order houses in Instant
cities for supplies, the greater
part Of which could be bought at
home as cheap"

Paris is said to lead the world in
the culture of city trees. The success
of the French capital is due not so
much to an admirable soil and climate
as to a well organized system of car
ing for the trees. In large nurseries
young trees are grown and prepared
for the Partisan streets. The culture
Of the soil is elaborate. From the very
beginning the trees are pruned and
staked to compel a straight growth.
BY frequent transplanting the roots
become so hardened that they are en-
abled to Withstand injury due to trans
portation. When a tree is sufficiently
large it is set out in the streets with
the same care that was lavished upon
it in the nursery. Often the cost of
planting a single tree is $50. When.
ever a storm destroys the city trees
the nursery can be Immediately drawn
upon for another supply.

Current Events.

The constant widening Of the scope
OF school courses is instanced by the
recent introduction of classes in gard
ening, Homework and discriminating
IN the Uyannis (Mass.) Normal School
and a course in millinery in the Boston
public schools.
The Methodist ministers Of India
uapolis, in order to stimulate fresh IN
yerest among their congregations, have
adopted a plan Of exchanging pulplts.
The congregations are not told what
preachers they are going to have and
this deprives them of the excuse oftc1
made for not going to church-that
they know just what the sermon is go
ing to be.

chapter Of John and about the same
number of the third chapter Of John.
Five Of the best ten chapters are
found in John, and the other five
represent five other books of the

Ct the church of today. says: st isn't

the influence of the church-and [
have no more sympathy with the de-
structive cities than you have. The
trouble is not with the higher critics,
but with the lower living of Christians.
The fog of higher criticism is not to
lie dissipated by firing great guns at
it. That only adds to the fog the smoke
of the powder. You can d~issipate the
fog only by the sunbeams Of Christian
living. I'll wear myself out preaching

Girls Punish Deceiver.

A young man living at Heydekrug,
Prussia, was recently beaten to death
by three indignant girls whom he had
deceived. He proposed marriage to
the three damsels, and by careful man
agement successfully avoided detec-
ton until recently, when one of his
frances caught him walking in the
country with another young lady. The
young man tried to explain the situa.
ton, but to no avail. The other night
he was attacked by the three girls,
who tied him to a tree and with heavy
whips dashed him to death. They then
calmly walked to the police station
and informed the authorities OF their
act.
