Auto as Life Saver.

An automobile played the part Of a
life-saver in Madison, rescuing Angelo
Leabella from an angry mob which
threatened to mob him for the alleged
attempted murder of Inguisio Capo,
whom Leabella is said to have shot I'M
der the window of the state capitol. Lea
bella failed to inf1ict fatal wounds, but
the crowd which saw the shooting pur-
sued him when he tried to escape on a
bicycle. He fell and was overpowered,
but a policeman threw him into an au-
tomobile and the man was soon safe
from violence.

The forests are composed mainly OF
five distinct types: Pure growths Of
Iehua, koa, mamane and kukui, and
mixed forests, which are made up Of
koa, koaia, kopiko, kolea, naio, qua and
other species.
The ohia-lehua, which forms pure
stands or growths with small admix-
ture of koa, naio, kopiko and pua on
all the different islands, is the typical
forest of regions of very heavy rainfall,
such as northeast slopes and mountain
tops under 5000 feet elevation. It COM

Mexico, and is called aigaroba. The
first algaroba tree in Hawaii grew from
a seed planted in 1897 by Father Bach
eliot, founder of the Roman Catholic
mission. This tree, which is about two
feet in diameter and so feet tall, yet
stands in thrifty condition at the cor
ner of Fort and Beretania streets, Hon
olulu. 1t is the progenitor of at least
SO acres of forest, which is fairly we'll
distributed over the different islands.
Situated as they are, the algaroba
forests are more accessible than the
other forests of the islands. Indeed,
there are hundreds of cases where the
forest has taken possession of old feed
lots and pastures on farms and sugar
plantations, and even on vacant lots
in towns. Some OF the suburbs of Hon
olulu are thickly grown up with alga-
roba. The wood, which is valuable for
fuel, sells at the plantations and in
Honolulu for nine and ten dollars per
cord. 1t lasts we'll in the ground when
used as fence post. Both fuel and
fence posts are in such great demand
that there is extensive cutting in these
forests.
All of the five important islands are
mountainous, their highest points rang
ing from 4,030 feet on Oahu to 1880
feet on Hawaii, and all the mountains
are to a considerable extent forested.
The native forests are distinctly of
tropical character. None of the famil-
lar trees of the north temperate zone
are present The observer looks in
vain for oaks, naples, pines or spruces.

only three Europeans who visited it

Mr. Thomas Manning, the only Eng

to make his home with the Franks
family, and that now he is 81 years old

not tell where he came from, only saying
that "big river" was near his home.
