EVERYTHING READY
FOR IkUKEA'S BOND

Treasurer Kepoikai, before leaving
for Maui yesterday. had the form of
receipt in readiness for turning over
the tax office to Assessor Iaukea when
ever he qualified to the Oahu County
Board of Supervisors. Assessor Pratt
perused the form and found it right,
and would be only too glad properly
to be rid of his old office. The Land
Office of the Territory finds enough
business for him, especially in view of
his approaching trip to Hawaii with
the Governor.
Treasurer Kepoikai would only have
the receipt taken from the county as
SCISSOR for the records, blanks, station
cry. etc, excluding furniture and fix
lures. These, from the fact of their
cost having come out of appropriations
for furniture and repairs of government
buildings. the Treasurer holds should
be receipted for to the Superintendent
of Public Works.

WORKING OUT
RUBBISH MINE S

The sanitary inspectors, on their Sat
urday afternoon special tour, did eff
fective work. They found many
things to be remedied. The wagon
followed their trail Monday morning
and picked up loads of tin cans. ETC.
For the past two days the mosquito
brigade under direction of Mr.. Lar
mach has been making a thorough
cleanup of the old Fowler's Yard sec
ton, also of the block between Hotel,
Union and Fort streets. Four loads
of tin cans and other water holding
vessels We're hauled away.
Although there has been no meeting
of the mosquito committee for a week
or two past, plans are being matured
which it is hoped will be materially
effective in the campaign.

DR.. sun YET
On CHINA
A Famous Revolutionist
Addresses Research
Club.

At the regular meeting of the Research
Club held last evening at the residence
of w. w. Hall, Nuuanu street, the
feature of the session was an able and
interesting address by DR.. Sun Vat Sen,
the Chinese leader of the Revolutionist
party, his subject being Things Chi
nese." He spoke slowly and with care,
and presented a very lucid statement of
conditions in the Chinese Empire.
He opened by saying that the subject
was a large one, that the Empire was
larger than the United States and had
population of 100000 people. It
was an absolute monarchy, there being
no judicial system, no congress, no re-
sponsibl eministry.
The Empire consisted of several
groups of states, each almost a distinct
empire. There was China proper with
the descendants of the original Chinese
race; second, Manchuria third. Mongo-
liza; and fourth, Tibet Manchuria was
governed by Tartar general; Mongo-
liza by Prince of the country itself;
Thibet by its priesthood at the head of
which is the Lama. The Emperor of
China is a Manchu of the dynasty which
conquered China in 1874, A. D.
In the Empire there were eighteen
provinces each governed by a viceroy
Each province is divided into districts
at the head of which is government
official or magistrate. The average
population is million to each district
There being but one government off
cial to such large community shows
the government does not extend deep
among the people. This indicates also
that the Chinese live a comparatively
free community existence.
All struggles in China have mainly
been dynastic. One village, however,
can make war upon another The speak
er said the weakness of China was the
lack of centralized control There was
too much liberty of loose kind to hold
the empire together
The people of China were essentially
homogeneous; barring the dialects on
the coast they were practically of one
language While the present govern
ment was feeble and in a dying condi-
ton, it could not maintain control. The
partition of China would prove impos-
sible. The Chinese would resent it and
European powers would find that it in

TIE MARVELLOUS MANGO

In support of efforts to extend the
cultivation of the mango in Porto Ri
co and Florida, G. N Collins, one of
the Government botanists, states that
this fruit deserves to become as popu-
lar as the orange and banana. An
other expert, George w. oliver, agrees
that the mango will undoubtedly grow
in popular favor. "At present" said he,
''it is suffering from a had reputation,
owing to the fact that the fruits that
have been placed. before the public in
from seeding trees that are fit only
to be used for stocks or as wind
breaks He says that the fruits of
this tree thus far offered for, sale are
really wild or jungle mangoes, and
that they bear the same relation to the
scientifically cultivated mango that the
crab-apple does to the Baldwin or Ben
Davis variety.
The great Importance of developing
this fruit has been so thoroughly recog-
nized by the Government that it has
had experts in India and other ,tropi-
cal lands searching for improved varie-
ties These have been shipped to
America where, under glass, extensive
experiments in propagation are under
way.
1t has been demonstrated that one
mango tree will bear as many as TO-,
600 fruits. With 100 trees to the acre
the yield at that rate would be 1000, 600
mangoes. An annual yield of 10000,
900 mangoes on a quarter-section of
land shows the possibilities Of this. in
dustry, when the fruit becomes popu-
lar.
Though the primary use of the man
go is as a fresh fruit, it serves many
other purposes where it's virtues have
been recognized. Canned, they are
pronounced to be as good as peaches.
In official experiments by the Botani-
cal Department of Jamaica thirteen
mangoes produced one pint of jelly and
FIVE quarts of marmalade. Mango
forms one of the main ingredients. in
chutneys. The bruised and imperfect
fruit may be profitably distilled into
fair grade of alcohol. Roasted and
made into sherbet it is taken in In
dia to prevent sunstroke. From the
leaves of the mango yellow dye is
extracted. The bark mixed with that
of pomegranate and species of bau-
hinia also produces a yellow dye stuff.
Mixed with the bark of certain trees
of India a permanent black dye is OBJ
tanned. The juice of the bark blended
with lime yields a f1eeting green. To
produces A bright rose-pinl1. FREE
quently a great amount of gum ex-
udes from the trunk OF mango trees.
This is said to be a substitute for gum
arabic.
In India the mango, prepared in a
variety of ways, IS one of the staple
articles of food. 1t is used in curries,
made into pickles, custards, salads, and
certain kinds of cakes. Even the kerr
nels are used. Stuffed with coriander
and other spices and boiled in mustard
oil, they are regarded as a great deli

Several Matches Being
Arranged Among
Scrappers.

There is considerable fight talk going
on in sporting circles and the proba-
bilities of a card of unusual merit to
be pulled off at the Orpheum Saturday
night, January %, are very good.
Among the matches already made for
the above date is one between Dave
Barry. who is now the local. champion,
and Bill Williams, otherwise known as
Kid" Garter. The latter is a heavy
weight, tipping the scales at over 1855
pounds and looks to be a very for1nid
able opponent He has just arrived
here and the fact that he has challeng-
ed Barry with the provision that the
winner takes all the purse, proves him
II looks count he should be able to
take Barry's measure in short order
but the latter does not seem to fear
a few extra pounds on an opponent
Oscar Kreuter and Nigel jackson
have also been matched for six rounds,
the winner to take all the purse. These
two rivals have fought before in pri-
waite on which occasion Kreuter won
Those who witnessed 1t claim it was a
great fight. Since then it has been
Jackson's ambition 20 regain his lau-
rels and when the men meet again the
bout should be an interesting one.
Mcdonald, the man who showed up
so well at the last affair at the Or
pheun1. viii probably be matched
against the Guam Wonder.
The match that is creating the most
talk is one between Jack Weday and
Bill Huihui and Manager Cohen is try
ing to arrange for this match to take
place at the same time thereby making
it a gala event. Cohen offered a purse
of 1925 for these two for a ten-round
contest, and thought the match was
made, as Weday had accepted, but
now Huihui won't fight for over six
rounds and wants an even division of
the purse. 1t is hardly probable that
Weday. will agree to the latter propo-
sition, and again, Cohen will not pay
that amounx for a preliminary of six
rounds. In speaking of this Cohen
said: 1.-THE public is kicking at high
prices for ordinary bouts and it is my
intention to bring this affair off at
popular prices, say at rate ranging
from soc. to $780, but some of our local
would be- champions are so exorbitant
in their demands that it is we'll nigh
impossible to do so. Some of them
who could not get $40 for fighting in
San Francisco want at least 500, and
then go into the ring with the idea of
getting the money as easy as possible.
Instead of putting up a good exhibition
they disgust the audience.
II believe Weday and Huihui would
give a great contest but Huihui must
come down a peg in his ideas There
is lot of good material in Frisco that
would be glad to come down, and I'M
less the local boys are reasonable I
shall send to the coast for some of

RACE IN
FAR EAST
Walker Willing to Take
a Yacht to
Japan.

Charles Walker, the boat builder,
who recently returned from Japan,
where he had gone to challenge Jap
anese yachtsmen to compete for Ha-
wafian cup, has written to a gentle
man in Yokohama, stating that he will
race a Hawaiian-built boat in Japan
csc waters on certain conditions.
The japanese yachtsrnen wanted 10
race a boat with a S5-foot water line.
This would be practically impossible
for Hawaiian yachtsmen to consider,
as such boat would have to be sail
ed across the Pacific from Honolulu 10
Yokohama, and would probably arrive
at the latter port in no condition to
compete.
Mr.. Walker has suggested that the
japanese yachtsmen agree to race
boat, 35 feet over all, somewhat on
the plan OF the Gladys. Such a boat
could be transported on the deck OF a
passenger liner. Mr.. Walker agrees
with the Hawaii Yacht Club to accom-
pany the boat to race her. at his own
expense. Allan Dunn would do the
same. Mr.. Walker asks that the local
yacht club bear the expenses of the
crew and the expense of shipping the
boat both ways.
The race would be sailed for yen 5000,
and Mr.. Walker agrees to take his
chances on winning this amount to rec
ompense him for the expense of build
ing the boat.

ORGANIZATION OF TOBACCO GROWERS.

We believe thoroughly in the organization of
the tobacco growers. The farmers of the bright
tobacco belt have an advantage over almost any
other class of farmers in that the territory for
growing the crop is limited-thus enabling them,
if they would, to organize and command fair
prices for their product. But they can never
hope to accomplish anything by jerky, spasmodic
action. Eternal vigilance" we are told-not
vigilance by fits and starts when conditions sud-
denly become worse, but eternal vigilance-"is
the price of liberty" And the kind of o~rganiza-
ton farmers need and must have is an organiza-
ton with purposes broad enough or business in
terests wide enough to hold the growers per-
manently, steadfastly in it's ranks-an organiza-
ton which will hold itself intact and ready for
action whether prices rise temporarily or continue
at the present figures. A meeting first at one cen
ire, then another meeting months later at ONE
other centre, are useful only as they serve to clear
the way for such general and thorough o~rganiza-
ton in every township that grows tobacco.
Organization must be enduring to be effective.

How to Read Your Paper.

Now, this was the way in which Epictetus read
his daily paper, and talked over that paper to his
disciples. "When any alarming news is brought
to me, I instantly fall back on this reflection, that
the only real suffering that can fall on me can
only fall on me from my own evil. Can any worse
news come to me than what I already know about
myself? Impossible. Or, has anyone dear to me
died? Well. then, all their times, and all my
times, too, are in the hand of God. Has some
body written i'll of me in the papers? If they
have done 50, that is their matter far more than
mine. No mans pen can really injure me but my
own. Has my father become my enemy, and am
| told that he has made his last will and testament
to my disadvantage? Nv true advantage and my
true disadvantage is not even in my fathers hand.
God is my true Father, and His will is my ever
lastin" enrichment. Have the jury and the judge
pronounced against me? So they did IN the case
of Socrates, a far better, and a far more innocent
man than | am. Their verdict and their sentence
is their own affair. All that concerns me in the
matter is that | make my defence as Socrates
made his defence, with the love of truth, with sub
mission to the will of God, with meekness and
mildness. and withal with irmness toward my
prosecutors and my enemies. A bad tempered
and an untrue defence is my only danger, while a
bad sentence is their condemnation. These are
some of my morning meditations over my paper"
said Epictetus. "and I advise you all to initiate
me in that

The laggard sun, on frosty morn,
Throws long beams through the stubble corn.
Against the sunset, naked trees
Weave magic bredes and traceries.
From woodlands ak the splinter bounds;
The f1icker's CHEEKY tapping sounds;
Ice thaws, and in the quickening food
Are vague, fond hopes of leaf and bud,
When, 10! like fleck of living sky
~Full-songed, a bluebird sweet fits by!
