Eight Members Of Senate in
Honolulu Opposed to a

But a bare majority of Senators will

morning by Governor Carter to con-
slider the County Act and appropria-

Senators Baldwin. Nakapaahu and
Wilcox arrived on the w. C. Hall yes

Contrary to expectations none of the

With Baldwin, Nakapaahu, Kaohi

Achi and Isenberg. Senator Cecil
Brown is en- route to Japan on the

is on Hawaii to be gone for a month

1t is doubtful if the Senators will
recommend a special session, although
several of the Oahu members favor it. |
Senator Wilcox said yesterday that Ka- |
uai accepted the County Act decision
good naturally, and that every senti- !
ment he had heard expressed was OPP |
posed to a special session. In view of
the opinion of the Attorney General re-
garding the use of old appropriations it
is probable also that majority of the
Senators will also oppose another ses-

st. Douglass.

Twas the night before Christmas,
And all through the house,
Not a creature was stirring,
Not even a mouse.
When mama awoke with a start and
a shake,
And wondered why papa
Was so wide awake;
A rumbling and roaring
Soon came to their ears
A noise that would follow them,
All through their years.
For down near the bath room
The water rushed out,
And it caused poor papa
And mama to shout.
ooh, why did we make such a fearful
mistake;"
ooh, John dear, I fear that
My poor heart will break,
Unless you will promise
That tomorrow you'll call
Bath, the plumber, and have him
Go over it ALL
And then no more leaks,
For we know that tits true,
That folks always call Bath
When there's plumbing to do.''

Kauai which is offered by Sheriff Coney
for information leading to the arrest
and conviction of the men who muir
dered Arthur Glennon, the engineer in
charge of the MakaweI ditch, last
week. The first reward offered was
$1,000 and private subscriptions have in

Washington, Jan. 19.-The trial of
August w. Machen and the others in

fraud the government proceeded rapid
ly to-day. The government put in ev-
idence number of documents having
a direct bearing on the dealings of the
Croft brothers with Machen's division
in the Postoffice Department, and bank
officials gave testimony concerning the
deposits of the Groffs, as we'll as the
checks drawn against these deposits.
The fact was brought out by two
witnesses, representing firms which
manufactured the Croft fastener, that
the price to the Groffs of the complete
fastener was % cents, with a rebate
of five cents on each fastener, condi-
toned upon pgompt settlement of bills.
The price at~Mhich the fasteners were

was fixed at $1.50 each but later was

stage of the proceedings when Attor-

Postoffice Inspector Walter Mayer had
been talking to witnesses before they
came on the stand. Mayer denied
the charge. When, subsequently,. the
matter cropped out again and Attor-
ney Kumler said he had positive in
formation that Mayer had committed
the offense, Justice Pritchard rebuked
the inspector and warned him against
its repetition. District Attorney Beach
demanded an affidavit to prove the as
sertion, which Mr.. Kumler said he
would furnish later in the day, but the
matter apparently was allowed to
drop, as the affidavit was not pre-
scented.

THEY ACTUALLY
DO THE WORK.
Food Eaten Is Worthless Unless Di-
gested-Some Stomachs Must
Have Helm

Have Help.
Food taken into the Stomach which,
from the nature of the food or the
condition of the stomach, is not di-
gested, is worse than no food at all.
This is a true statement as far as it
goes. and a great many dyspeptics go
only this far with their reasoning.
They argue with themselves that be-
cause their stomachs do not do the
work given them, they must be given
less work; in other words, they must
be starved. 1t would be just as sem
Sible for a business man who Is una
BILE to do all his own work to cut
down his business to his own capacity
as it is for a man to starVe himself to
relieve his stomach. The sensible bus
mess man employs help and goes for
ward with his business. Likewise the
sensible dySpeptiC will employ help
for his stomach and give his body
proper nourishment
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets actually
do the work assigned to them. They
relieve weak and oVerburdened stom-
achs of great portion of digestive
action. Their component parts are
identical with those of the digestive
fluids and secretions of the stomach
and they simply take up the grind
and carry on the work just the same
ms good, strong, healthy stomach
would do it.
On this account Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets are perfectly natural in their
action and effects. They do not cause
any unnatural or violent disturbance
in the stomach or bowels. They
themselves digest the food and supply
the system with all the nourishment
contained in what is eaten and carry
out Natures plans for the sustenence
and maintenance of the body.
How much more sensible is this
method than that employed by many
sufferers from weak stomachs. BY
this means the body and brain get all
the good, nutritious food they need
and the man is properly nourished
and equipped to carry on his work
and perform his duties. He could not
possibly be in proper working condi-
ton by starving himself or employing
some new tangled, insufficient food
that does not contain enough nutri-
ment for a year-old baby A strong
man doing strong work must be prop
erly fed and this applies to the brain
as well as the body.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets, by re-
lieving the stomach of its work. en-
able it to recuperate and regain its
normal health and strength. Nature
repairs the worn and wasted tissues
just as she heals and knits the bone Of
broken limb. which is of course not
used during the process of repair.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are for
sale by all druggists at so cents box
and they are the one article that the
druggist does not try to sell some
thing in the place of that's lust as
good Their unqualified merit and
success and the universal demand for
them has placed them within the
% O.

TALK WAS OF BLOOD.
Experts Testified in the Bechtel
Murder Trial.

Allentown, Pa, Jan. 19.-After hav-
ing examined forty witnesses in it's en-
deavor to prove that Mrs. Catharine
Bechtel was guilty of being an Access
sorry after the fact in the murder of
her daughter, Mabel. last October. the
commonwealth closed it's case at 6
o'clock this evening.
The proceedings to-day were taken
up entirely with the examination of
experts on blood. DR.. John Lear pro-
fessor of biology at Muhlenberg Col
lege, who testified yesterday that the
stains on articles taken from the Bech-
tel home were made by human blood,
was again on the witness stand to-day.
Counsel for the defendant tried to dis
credit the biological, or Bordet. test.
for determining human blood. which
DR.. Lear had employed, but the cross
examination failed to shake the direct
testimony of the witness.
After DR.. Lear had given an exhaus-
tive explanation of the Bordet test
which is said to be a new method in
this country, DIR. John Eckert of this
city, who assisted DR.. Lear, corrobo-
rated DR.. Lear's conclusions regarding
blood tests. and declared all the stains
