boats, were built in 1903 for passenger
and cargo traffic, and are named the
PRINCE Sigismund and Prnz Walde-
mar Their dimensions are: Length,
S2S feet; breadth, AZ feet; and depth. 27
feet. The capacity of each vessel, with
a medium draught, for cargo, coal
crew, passengers, luggage and stores, is
over 1900 tons. They are three-deck
steamers, with two decks running from
end to end, a cut" lover deck. forward

nine water-tight compartments by
eight transverse bulk-heads reaching
to the upper deck.
In the arrangement of the passenger
accommodation the latest experience
gained on voyages I'm the tropics has
been utilized. The promenade deck has
been made specially large. so that the
passengers can remain on deck with
maximum of comfort; the cabins, in

LOOKING
TOWARDS EPACE

WASHINGTON, November l1.-Pre-
sident Roosevelt is in readiness at the
proper time to take open action looking
toward peace between Russia and ia
pan. More than this, the Administra-
ton is taking quiet steps to this great
end, and for three or four months has
been carrying out well-defined pro-
gramme to bring the war to a close The
idea that the movement is a pOst-elec-
ton course of action, p" that the cleo
ton had much to do with this is entire
ly at variance with the facts. 1t is OBJ
vious that Roosevelt, with another adj
ministration before him, is in better
shape to carry out the policies, and also
that the prestige of himself and Secre-
tary Hay in world affairs is EXCHANGED
by the sweeping approval of his course
by the American people. Russia has
been sounded through Foreign Minister
Lamsdorff himself. AS yet little percep-
tible progress has been made, but it is
known that Secretary Hay is encOur-

Governor Garter was waited ON this
morning by O.. W Smith aud r. NJ
Wakefield as u special committee from
the Merchants Association for the pur-
pose OF comforting as to- possible chan-
gcs in the tax law of Hawaii. Tha
two directors OF the Association were
appointed two months ago To 20 thor
oughly into the matter and the result
OF their labors was laid before the
governor.
Briefly told, the merchants feel that
a change should be made i'm the laws so
that the burden Of taxation should be
more equally distributed. Assessment
returns today have to be made for the
actual cash value" of stocks of goods
and taxes have by law TO be paid on
this valuation. Under the old laws this
valuation was subject to a reduction
Of one-third as approXimating the pos
sible value Of the goods at a forced
sale. For many reasons it will be rec
ognized that the actual cash value OF
a mercantile stock and the amount that
it would bring i'm ready cash are two
vastly different matters, and i'm this the
mercantile portion of the community
think that a hardship is worked them.
! Assessor Holt agreed with this view
Of the situation this year so that he
accepted statements of property with a
reduction of 20 per cent on the inven-

Carrie goes by the name of Mary Ann

HARD TIMES FOR
SAILING VESSELS
BALLAST STARBUCK
STARTED FRISCO WITHOUT

The ship George Curtis, Captain Cal
houn, has received an unusual charter
from Honolulu. Instead of following
the ordinary route she is to leave here
for Newcastle in ballast and will re-
turn here with cargo of coal. This
course is almost unprecedented for an
American vessel, though some British
ers and other foreigners have made
the same trip. 1t is owing to her be-
ing here at the end of the sugar sea-
son without a cargo i'm sight. Instead
of laying her up, her owners will send
her on the long ballast voyage in search
of coal. The rule in the past has been
to takes cargoes to the Colonies and
bring coal here and then go from here

one.
The Tillie Starbuck is making a sim
liar trip after coal, except that her
ballast trip is longer even than that of

in ballast and is now on her way to
Newcastle for a cargo of coal. Such
long ballast journeys for the Pacific
sailing vessels flying the American flag
were unknown I'm former days.
The Curtis is now unloading a cargo,
and will take on ballast and leave as
soon as she is ready. She will prob
ably be back in time for the next sugar

One of the most successful dairymen
we know about feeds his cows four
ounces of salt per COW per day, and
says that it pays. "The cows give
more milk, the milk has a much bet
ter flavor, and will keep considerably
longer" The salt is fed with the grain
ration. Since hearing this man we
have fed our cows more salt Alto
gether we have not got UP to the quar-
ter-pound notch, yet we still believe
that a good many cows do not get as
much salt as they really need. Sailing

THE TURKEY ON THE FARM.
The Businesn Is All Right II Youf
NeighbOr Isn't Doing 1t or
Has d Nice GArdeii.

The turkey demands d wider range
than any other domestic FOWL. It is too
nearly related to the wild bird to en-
dure confinement, and when this is at
tempted it pines and fails to thrive. 1t
delights in fresh air, and plenty of It,,
hence roost on the fence or in an old
tree Is much preferred winter and
summer, to the most approved poultry
house.
Those living on small farms had best
confine their energies to other branches
of the poultry department, no matter
how alluring the turkey business may
seem. In the end it will prove dis
appointment; worse, the owners Of
neighboring gardens will be your enc
mics, for turkey will go through a
patch of cabbage in short order If op-
portunity is offered.
Again, if your neighbors are engaged
in turkey raising, think twice before
you enter the list, even though there
be good range. Flocks will get togeth-
er, and then trouble ensues. If all par
ties are honest, homemade leg bands
will serve to identify the members of
each flock Stout cloth, as bedticking
or denim, will serve the purpose. But
if one of the parties is SO inclined the
leg bands may be removed-and then
young safeguard comes up as testimony
against you. The one who insists on
having his number, no matter how
many may have been taken by nawk or
weasel. is going to get the best of the
deal. Under such conditions it is wise
not to attempt turkey raising. for it Is
neither profitable nor pleasant to feel.
when you should be giving thanks that
you have been working all summer to
serve others.
While the little turkeys are more
tender than chicks, after they are half
grown about the only care needed is
liberal feeding night and morning. This
latter is more as an incentive to them
to come home to roost than to supply
any inner necessity. Usually the fields
abound in grasshoppers and other in
sects. and on them alone the turkeys
will thrive and grow fat. In fact, as

OSTRICHFEATHER TRIMMING
Some Suggestions Regarding Its Ar
rangement for the Home
Milliner.

The ostrich feather does not wane In
popularity. On the contrary, there are
more ostrich feathers wofn this season
than ever before and they are arranged
with more variety Of effect. One can
do more with feathers than In previous
seasons, for they are heavier and they
are more pliable. Feathers that were
once brittle and stiff are now charming
ly pliable and we'll adapted to the pur-
poses of Thinning says the Brooklyn
Eagle.
A nest of feathers is one bf the new
ways of using ostrich tips. Let the hat
be any shape, but preferably one of those
shapes with wide brim that turns up
sharply at one side, the taller the bet
ter.
Take the feathers, which must be five
in number, and have them all the same
the rest, but the remainder are all of a
length. Fasten the feathers together.
Pull them out in the form of feather
nest. And when spread out well sew
them to the crown of the hat. Now pull
them out over the brim, tacking them
here and there, SO that they will not
blow away.
The great trouble for an amateur in ara
ranging ostrich feathers upon a hat is
that they are not fastened properly to
the hat The home milliner will take
stitch here and there and call the hat
trimmed. But the miliiner sews the
feathers fast to the hat, eiinningly arr
ranging the stitches so that they do
not show, yet securing the feathers be-
yond all fear of blowing away.
And there is another thinning 1t Is
called the twin feather trimming. 1t is
one of the novelties of the summer. For
this is needed ready-to-wear hat or a
hat of fancy straw, which needs NO other
trimming than feather. This hat,
which should be jauntily shaped is large
and the brim curls upward in sweeping
manner, while one side rises splendidly
in a great curve.
Now, to trim the hat, take two feath-
ers of exactly the same length, which
should be about half yard long, AMI
sew them to the hat, in precisely the
same spot. Then take and drape the
feathers in such manner that one
falls down the back Of the hat upon the
cofffure and the other is pulled down
1t the side SO as to touch the ear and
the neck.
The popularity Of the uncurled feather
Is boon to the summer woman who has
hitherto had trouble in keeping herself
curled. No matter how straight the
leather may be this season it will not
be out of style, for Dame Fashion is
wearing hers uncurled as we'll as curled.

Feeding shcer.

Sheep are fed for d double purpose
wool and mutton. Don't make the mis-
take of feeding for mutton and starv-
ingffor wool, because when feeding for
the one you, are also feeding for the
other, and If you imagine that feed
ing may be curtailed or neglected when
only wool is wanted, you make a se-
rious mistake, says Farmers Call.
Good wool requires uniform feeding,
for short period of deprivation causes
weak streak all through the fleece,
and buyers are always on the lookout
for defects that will reduce the prices.
Sheep for wool need not be fed like
those fed for fat, but should be kept in
a good, thrifty condition throughout
the year. When the object of feeding
Is both wool and mutton, feed for the
mutton, and you get the fleece. You
may take thin lamb and fatten him
for mutton in q short time, but his
fleece will be inferior, whereas, II the
lamb has been kept in good condition
continuously, feeding for fat will mere
ly improve the fleece.
