How we Grow,

An old print of forty years ago
says: The St. Paul & Pacific road
is now completed as far as Elk River,
forty-two miles from St. Paul. Both
freight and passenger trains are run
ming there regularly. People from
St. Cloud can now easily reach St.
Paul, transact their business and re-
turn home at a reasonable hour next
day. It formerly required three days
for this trip"
Forty years has witnessed a great
change. In early days St. Cloud was
the jumping off place in the march of
empire toward the Red River Valley
and the "desert land" beyond. To-
day the old St. Paul & Pacific is now
great stretch of steel beginning at
the head of navigation on the Missis-
sippi and terminating at tidewater on
the Pacific.
A St. Cloud business man can take
an early morning train for St. Paul,
transact his business and be back
home for dinner, of course if the
trains run right. He can now 20 half
way across the continent in the same
time that it required for a trip forty
years ago from St. Cloud to St. Paul
and return.

Radium Running a Clock,

An ingenious Englishman has in
vented a radium clock which it is es-
timated could run 10000 years if not
interfered with. The method is the
generation of a current of electricity
by the radium and two strips of silver
which pass through the works at in
tervals Of every two minutes, thus
keeping them in operation as long as
the radium lasts. Golden grain belt
beer won't make a human clock. run
forever, but it will so improve the
health and vigor Of the body that it
should run for many more years and
besides keeps it in perfect health.
The purity and strength of this bev-
erage recommends it to every house
holder. Order a case of your nearest
dealer or be supplied by Henry Veidt,

A Dusty River.

Bob Burdette says the dust blows
out of the Missouri river. It is the
only river in the world where the dust
blows in one great column out of the
river bed. The catfish come up to the
surface to sneeze. The river is COM
posed of six parts sand and four
parts water. The natural color of the
water is seal brown, but when it rains
two or three days and the river gets
pretty wet it changes to dark iron
gray. A long rain will make the
river so thin that it can easily be
poured from one vessel to another,
but when it is ordinarily dry, how
ever, it has to be stirred with stick
before you can pour it out of any,
thing.

Died in the jug.

Coroner DR.. r. B. HixOn was called
to Isanti Friday to view the remains
of Nels Forscyglus who was found
dead in the jail at that place. Nels

fore for drunkenness but it seems that
he departed this life before sleeping

pletes its Line to Southshore.
Last Thursday H. f. Mann, of the
Mile Laos Lake Telephone Co., as
sisted by Ernest Ryder and Neal
Windsor: of Midland, completed the
stringing of the telephone wire be-
tween Vineland and this place. An
instrument was placed in the South
shore hotel here in short order, when
MIR. Mann called up Vineland, Mid
land, Nichols and Aitkin, and found
the line to be in perfect working order
to all points mentioned, thus giving
US, at once, perfect telephone service
to Aitkin, where connections have
been arranged for with the Aitkin ex-
change and Northwestern lines for
transferring long distance messages.
Mr.. Mann stated that his company
had also secured connections with the
Maple Leaf company at NIilaca, that
poles were already set between here
and Milaca and that the wire would
also be strung to that place in about
a week, so that Southshore will soon
have phone service north and south.
The charges for instruments and
phone service between Milaca and
Midland is set at $3.50 per month
which is certainly a very reasonable
price, considering the distance be-
tween these points, which is over fifty
miles. Few companies are to be
found in the State, if any, that make
as low a rate for like distance.
By next season the line will doubt
less be continued to Lawrence. Isle
and Opstead. providing the people of
these points extend a reasonable
amount Of encouragement in the way
Of pledged business: which they will
likely be more than glad to do. A
line will also be extended later on to
Pierz, about thirty miles west from
here.-Mille Laos Pioneer.

MULE LOCoMoTIoN.

The Rapid Transit then found good
use for the mule busses of the defunct
Hawaiian Tramways Company. The
track was under water from J. S.
Walkers gateway to British Commits

were transferred in the buses between
those points, the cars being unable to
operate there.

WAIKIKI UNDER WATER.
At Waikiki last night the same trou-

out. much to the inconvenience of per-

DYNAMITER
IN THE TOLLS

A sheepish looking little Jap, carrying
a blanket which was filled with his be-
| longings, accompanied by three coun-
trymen, arrived from Kauai yesterday
| morning in the custody of Sheriff Coney
rand Chester Doyle. The little Jap was
have confessed that he murdered Glen
lInan. the engineer, by blowing him up
with eight sticks of dynamite. He was
captured by the Kauai police after a
long search and Judge Kahele, of Ka-
uai, has committed him to Oahu Prison
to await the action of the grand jury
on a charge of murder in the first de-
gree.
Although the Jap has not confessed
that he did the deed for the gamblers
whom Mr.. Glennan had chased out of
camp it is supposed that arrangements
had been made to pay him to accom-
plish this dastardly deed
Soon after the murder of Glennan,
Sheriff Coney suspected that the muir
derer or murderers We're itinerant gam
blers whom Mr.. Glennan had run out
of the camp. Accordingly he arrested
every Jap who had no means of liveli-
hood and charged each with vagrancy.
sent for Chester Doyle to examine them.
Doyle had every man in the sweat box.
Finally he got hold of four who con-
fessed that they knew the man who
had done the murder and that he had
escaped to Honolulu. w. H. Rice, Jr.,
of Kauai was sent to Honolulu to find
this man and with the aid of a jap
anese detective spotted his quarry
working for the Honolulu plantation
The man was taken back to Kauai, and
is said to have made a full confess
sion in which he stated that he had
lighted the fuse which set off eight
sticks of dynamite and the giant pow
der which dealt Mr. Glennan horrible
death. From the evidence given at the
trial at Lihue it appears that Matsu-
motto secured powder, fuse and cap
from workmen on the Makawen tunnel
and with a chisel cut the telephone
wire before exploding his great charge
n Mr.. Glennan's tent. He ran quickly
after lighting the fuse and was two
hundred yards away from the tent at
he time the explosion took place.
Matsumoto is thirty years old and
las been in the islands for six years,
working for short periods on various
plantations during that time.

NEGLECT ALWAYS DANGEROUS.

NEGLECT ALWAYS DANGEROUS.
To the average man it seems childish
to doctor a cold, and unless it becomes
particularly annoying to him, little or
no attention is given it. Often a cold
contracted in the winter is allowed TO
run until the opening of spring. This
is a grave mistake, as even though the
warm weather may bring relief, the
system is thereby weakened and rem
dered susceptible to disease. A cold
should never be neglected, whether it
be child or an adult who is afflicted,
as health and often life is risked- A
bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy,
costing but a small amount will bring
speedy relief and by its use all dan
gerous consequences will be avoided

MoToRMEN CAUTIOUS.

The motormen on the electric cars
used extreme caution in operating their
cars. Wherever rails were submerged
and rocks were felt beneath the wheels
the cars were slowed down and sent
ahead carefully. Switches in particu-
lar were taken slowly. as in some in
stances small stones had a habit of
locking the tongues. The Rapid Tran
sit Company had a big force of men
in slickers out along the entire system.
The officers and office force gave their
personal attention to watching the
tracks, and were able to keep up
slow car schedule. Now and then
fuse would blow out and several cars
had to be sent to the barn.

THREE LIVE WIRES.

Early last evening three live wires
were reported from different sections
of the city. Officers were promptly
sent out from the police station to
warn travellers of the danger and by
nine o'clock all peril had been averted
At 5:45 a report was sent to the police
station that an electric light wire had
broken near the Langton building on
King street. officer A. Kane was sent
to the scene and electricians were
quickly detailed to clear the wire away
At 6:15 a report was sent in from Judd
and Nuuanu streets that wire was
down there and was doing considerable
spluttering in the mud. Mr.. Green d
collector, tried to get it out of the way
by using an umbrella. He received a
mild shock. Then the residents of
that vicinity waited for electricians to
come. Shortly before seven o'clock a
wire broke down near the residence of
Alexander Young at Young and victo-
ria streets. Officer Kaaua went out
there and later electric light employees
fixed up the wire.

condition.
The old trouble at Piikoi street and
Wilder avenue, back OF the Makiki fire
station, broke out anew yesterday and
der water Road Supervisor Johnson
made an effort in the forenoon to do
some repairs to the broken down con-
crete wall which was originally erected
to divert the stream from it's old course
to the new ditch, but the new storm
came upon him and he was compelled
to quit The result of the damned up
condition of the old ditch was to again
food Wilder avenue between Piikoi and
Kewalo streets. The block was one
wide area of dirty water which over
flowed in a broad stream into the
property on the makaf side of the
street. The cows in Lishman's lot,
opposite the fire station, stood knee
deep in water. Kewalo street as far
as Lunalilo street was ripped out again
and the debris lodged in Lunalilo
street.
This excessive flood of water contin-
ued into Piikoi street and from the
Kaahumanu school to Whitney's the
water stood in places from one to two
and half feet deep. The debris was
carried over the King street track of
