The splendid discipline of the hospital

story.
Among the patients was Jane Toppan.

WHERE TREES MUST HURRY
Speedy Growth Necessary to Keep
Ahead of Accommodations on
Mississippi Bars.

The waters Of the Mississippi are at all
times SO full of the seeds Of plants ana
trees that wherever the current slack

tied they terminate. II the water gtveg
them a chance and send up plants In an
incredible number. A sandbar which

growth Of young willow or cottonwood
trees, which shoot up tall and slender
and so close together that they appear
like yellow hair on q mans head; henea
the sandbars so covered become knows
as "towheads."
A tree which grows in such plaza
often has to push up faster than drya
land tree would ind It possible to do.
In order to keep ahead Of the ground:
for the river at each rise deposits moSe

A. recent examination OF the willow

which were but six feet tall above
ground, had stems 16 feet long under
ground, reaching down to their roots.
That represents their growth in thetS
contest with the river.
Sometimes when the land on which q
tree stands Is overwhelmed by q sim
gle great flood and a deep deposit 10
made, the tree adapts itself to the
change by putting out new roots near
the new surface Of the ground. A queer
result of such an occurrence was log

Of Beef Island-Tsland Number Forty
few miles above Memphis A gum
tree, about 16 inches in diameter, had
evidently been overwhelmed and sur
rounded by new deposit Of earth ten
feet in depth. It had thereupon put out
a new set Of roots ten feet above the old
ones, and continued to grow. When
at last the river In another change
swept 1t entirely away and cast 1t up
on the head of Island Number Forty, the
lower trunk was still 16 inches in dame
ter, but above the second circle Of roots
the bole was nearly 80 inches through.
The irregular trunk, with Its two cir
Giles of roots, attracted much attention
from steamboat passengers. It was
close by the landing at the head Of the
island, and was the target for many
cameras when boats ran In to deliver
freight or take on a bale Of cotton.
The hurrying growth Of the willows
and cottonwoods is q great boon to the
government engineers. for they cut
them in huge quantities to weave into
mats with wire cables, which, sunk be-
low water-level and ballasted by heavy
stones, form the basis of the ''revet-
ments" which protect the banks from

A Continual STRAIN.

Many men and women are constant
ly subjected to what they commonly
term "a continual strain" because OF
some financial or family trouble. 1t
wears and distresses them both men,
tally and physically, affecting their
nerves badly and bringing on liver
and kidney ailments, with the attend
ant evils Of constipation, loss Of appe-
lite, sleeplessness, low vitality and
dependency. They cannot, as rule,
get rid OF this continual strain" but
they can remedy its Misunderstanding
effects by taking frequent doses Of
Green's August Flower. 1t tones up
the liver, stimulates the kidneys, in
sures healthy bodily functions, gives
vim and spirit to ones whole being,
and eventually dispells the physical

Very rough weather has been ex-

rived early yesterday morning from
the south side of Kauai with a report
of rough weather. The southerly wind

so rough on Thursday and Friday that
the vessel could not work freight at
either Koloa or Eleele Purser Friel

day night met rough weather.
The steamer Kauai from Kukuihaele
was unable to work several days dur
ing her stay along the HamalSua coast,
owing to rough seas and high winds
On Sunday, the sea washed away some
of the superstructure of the wharf at

work at Huelo or get into Napoopoo or

SMILED WHEN
SUED FOR DIVORCE

The divorce suit brought by Alba NJ.
Turtt of this city against his wife
Mabel HURT was called again in Judge
Gears court today at noon. In order
to prove service on Mrs. HURT who is
now in Pomona Cal, the deposition OF
F.. Barnes of Pomona as commissioner
was offered. His affidavit was to the
effect that he examined Deputy Sheriff
Slinker of Pomona who testified that he
had gone to the house of Mrs. HURT at
4S4 Louisa street, Pomona and had
there served her with the papers.
"She smiled when she was served"
continues the deposition "and said that
she expected it. She added that Alba
knew better than to sue her for divorce
when she was on the islands because
he knew she had lot of friends there.
She said that she did not know that
she would fight the case but that her
husband ought to pay alimony for the
support of the baby"
Judge Gear gave Attorney Highton
who appeared for Mrs. HURT, ten days
i'm which to communicate with his
client and file an answer.

of giving the minority representation
He will also have to be a member OF
all the notification and other ceremO-
NAL committees. If he does nothing
else during the session but run round
with committees Kaniho will have his
time taken.
Senator Woods is in the same fix. He.
will have more committee work to do
than any one man can possibly attend
to. The task of attending the sessions
of the committees he is supposed to be
on will be out of the question and he
will have to leave it to the other four
of the committee, all Republicans. The
situation is a very unusual one. In
view of the impracticability of either
Kaniho or Woods trying to be an all
committees, they will probably be
placed on such ones as they may
choose, leaving the others unanimously
Republican.

SLING.

Frank Hatch, captain of the victori-

actor and incidentally deputy clerk of
the U. S. District Court, appeared in
his office this morning with his face in
a sling. He has his lower jaw broken
on the left side and all of the molars
loosened as the result of an abrupt
contact with an H. A. c. knee just as
he was in the act of making the second
touchdown in Saturdays match. The
injury is a painful one, but the gallant
captain will probably be able to attend
his duties. The mental strain owing to
his being unable to talk will of course
be severe.

THE JURORS FOR

remarked Judge Robinson this morning
"The jury commissioners this time win
have better data to work on in the
matter of natives who cannot speak
English for one thing. When Chair
man Rawlins was taking the registry
he jotted down against each native
name whether or no the man could
speak English. The commissioners
will take the registration list and will
then be sure of having American citi-
zens only as well as only persons who.
can speak English This will get rid
of two difficulties at all events. There
is one thing that strikes me as being
curious i'm looking over the list" con-
tinued the judge, "and that is the fire.
quency with which there appear names
which should not appear. I mean the
names of persons who I am certain are
disqualified through having served
terms of over year and thus have lost
their civil rights. OF court some of
