SACRAMENTO, July 15.-The
brewery workers at the Buffalo and
City .breweries did not go on strike at
5 o'clock tonight although both
breweries, which produce all the Sac

the demands Of the union. Captain
Frank Ruhstaller, proprietor of the
City Brewery, and Adolph Heilbron,
president of the Buffalo Company
said the men were entirely satisfied
with conditions here and would not
have entertained a proposal to strike
were 1t not that they are subject to
the orders of the San Francisco union,
with which they are affiliated. The
wOrkmen tonight gave their employ
ers to understand they would return to
work tomorrow morning, and would
send representatives to a conference
between the union and the employees

Mrs. Lucy E. Cook of Fresno

Special Dispatch to The Call.

FRESNO, July 15.-Lucy z. Cook is
tired of paying out money for divorce
fees and she has had so much expert
ence as a client that she is confident
she understands the game thoroughly.
When she made UP her mind the last
matrimonial yoke was a misfit she de-
cided to throw it off and do it without
the assistance of the lagal profession.
So to-day she marched into the office
of the County Clerk and filed her home
made complaint. The defendant is H.
n. Cook, we'll known in labor circles
as a labor agitator. The couple were
divorced once before, but patched up
their differences and married again.
The second union did not bring the
hoped for happiness and Mrs. Cook
again wants to be free. 1t is understood
that she alleges desertion as a ground
for the suit Cook is president of the
Plasterers Union of this city.

VEGETATION THRIVES
IN KILAUEA'S CRATER
Evidence of Fertility Taken to Indi-
cate That Subterranean Activity
L

HONOLULU, July 9.-Trees, lantana
and other shrubs are sprouting inside
the crater of Kilauea- This is unusual
1t is taken as an Indication that the
subterranean activity is decreasing and
that the sulphur and other poisonous
gases are not being emitted in such
quantity as previously. There are
various steam cracks about the i'm
mense floor of the crater and steam is
always coming out of these, the heat
in some of them being intense. Many
of these cracks are reported now to be
dead, and this would account for the
growth Of trees and shrubbery in the
crater.
On the other hand, smoke has been
coming out of the inner crater Of
Kileauea during the last few days. The
volcano had shown little activity re-
Gently, but there appears to be re-
newed quantities of smoke coming
forth every morning.

WANTS CRATER
FOR FARM USE
German Applies for Lease
of Diamond Head Vol
canO Mouth in Hawaii
SOIL Is VERY FERTILE
Experiments Made by a POr-
tugueSe in the Extinct
PunchbOWl Are Successful
Special Correspondent Dence of The Call

HONOLULU July 9.-Not long ago a
Portuguese started a small farm on top
of the extinct crater of PunchbOwI,
growing melons and vegetables for the
local market. His enterprise may be
followed on a much larger scale by ].
L. Coerper, who has applied TO the Ter
ritorial Government for a lease of the
wellknown Diamond Head crater.
Coerper came here from Germany and
is a good judge of soils. He has made
up his mind that the choicest products
of orchard, vineyard and tTuck patch
can be raised in abundance in the Dia-
mond Head crater. COerper is espec-
tally smitten with the idea of cultivat-
ing a vineyard of such grapes as grow
at the home of his boyhood. And wa
termelons would grow with impunity,
for the crater is bug proof and beetle
free. No worm has ever been known
to creep UP its calcined walls and no
moth or winged insect ever rises above
the rim of the crater except to be
hurled far out to sea by the winds
which blow from Kaimuki. A vegeta-
BILE garden in Diamond Head crater
would, therefore, be insured for all
time against pests and no entOmOlO-
gist would be required on the payroll.
Coerper, who has a practical eye, has
surveyed the Diamond Head sleeps, and
figures that pack trail to the summit
would cost less than $1,000 Up this pack
trail would go the seeds and cuttings
toi start the isolated farm. Down the
trail would come long lines Of burrOs
laden with the fruitage of foresight and
toll, to the Honolulu market.
The application for a lease of Dia-
mond Head has not been acted on yet,
but awaits its turn with other import
ant matters in the land office.
