WASHINGTON SLATER

Auditor j. H. FishsT. who returned
from Kauai on Wednesday. yesterday
resumed his checking of books in the
Public Lands Department Owing 20
the absence of answers in many cases
to the notices sent out to persons charg~

chase moneys. a complete statement of
the shortages of defaulting officials
cannot at present be obtained.
An inquirer after land in this Ter
ritory, who dates his communications
from Rainier, Washington State, wrote
almost identical letters to the State
Department in Washington, D. c., and
to Commissioner Pratt in Honolulu.
His State Department letter was. for
warded to the Governor and Acting
Governor Atkinson promptly sent it
over the way to Mr.. Pratt, who has
therefore the benefit of both missives.

BUILT ISLAND ON A sHoAL.

DR.. Justus Ohage became few
years ago health officer of St. Paul.
He noticed a bit of shoal in the Missis-
sippi, visible only when the river was
low, but accessible within ten minutes
ride from the city hall. Securing pos
session, by gift, of as much as he
could and by purchase of what he could
not beg, he had the city's clean waste
dumped upon this little island. thus
rapidly bringing it above high water
mark. On the four and one-half acres
thus ingeniously wrested from the
father of waters the city of ST. Paul
now maintains within easy reach of a
majority of it's population a children's
playground, small ZOO a vegetable
garden (to support the forty uniform
ed attendants), public baths, with
modern sterilizing plants for the bath
ing suits, a day nursery, a boys gym
nasfum and a girls gymnasium-and
all united by a small but satisfactory
park.
