LARGE TURKEYS ARE FEW
Late Spring Assigned as Cause by 10.
cal Dealers,

There are plenty of turkeys, rabbits,
and fowls on the local markets, and
the prices are remaining normal. The
quotations are practically the same
as those of last year, though the birds
are as a rule smaller. One large
dealer this morning said that very
few large turkeys are to be found on
the market, and gave the late spring
as the cause of the dimunitive size of
the birds. Rabbits are very popular.
Ducks and geese figure favorably in
the list of popular supplies for the
Christmas dinners.

FURY OF THE
CLOUDBURST
IMMENSE VOLUME OF WAT-R
SWEEPS AWAY HALAWA BRIDGE
ON MOLOKAI

The big cloudburst which struck the
easterly end of Molokai last week did
more damage than was at first estimat-
ed according to the news brought by
superintendent McVeigh of the Leper
Settlement today. The full fury of
the cloudburst was felt in the valley
at Halawa for the greater part of the
cloud, bursting on the easterly face
of the mountain rance, the water rush
ed down that valley on it's way to the
sea.
The river gave but little sign of
rising until the solid wall of black wa
ter many feet in height came sweeping
down with irresistible force The big
government bridge, over 1926 feet long
which spans the valley was the only
obstruction and this was brushed aside
in an instant. 1t was broken into
three rections and the remains will of
little use.
Telephone poles were knocked down
in many places and the wires were
broken. The water subsidized almost
as quickly as it rose and the inhabitants
went about dreading that some neigh
bors might have been injured or kill
ed Fortunately the wreck brought
with it no human casualties. The
bridge will have to be rebuilt at once as
it is the only means of travel for sew
eral hundred people.

WANTS TRIAL
IN HONOLULU
FUNIKOSHI TOO GOOD FOR HILO
AND Is PROSECUTED BY THAT
WICKED CITY.

1t was Chester Doyle who spoke but
he spoke not for himself he was the
mouthpiece as court interpreter of a
Jap who was up for trial in Hilo.
Il want to have my trial in Homo
lulu he said. Il am too good a man to
be tried in Hilo. No man who is a
good man and has a soul and conscience
should be tried in Hilo. l am very
moral and that is why the people here
in Hilo do not like me. They have
followed me for revenge because am
good and have tried to send me to jail
for many years. No I don't want to
be tried here"
This scathing aTaignment, coming
as it did from a man who has been con-
victed once Cor murder in the second
degree, once for conspiracy to murder
and is now up on a second charge for
a similar conspiracy naturally Of
Tended Hilo's dignity and some thought
that Interpreter Doyle ought to have
sugar-coated the pill.
''Oh l don't know" said Doyle I'm
sworn to translate correctly, but there
are several words in Japanese which
have no exact equivalent in English.
If l could have translated them Hilo
would have had something to kick
about and the court records would have
been burnt full of holes"
The japanese was Funikoshi who in
company with cOuntTyman named
Watanabe was convicted about a year
go of murder in the second degree and
was sentenced to thirty years imprison-
ment. Watanabe got off with a trifling
twenty-five years. The men were sent
here but thu case was appealed and
they secured their release on bail. The
result of the appeal has not yet been
decided by the Supreme Court.
Meanwhile the two men went back
to Hilo where according to the stories
told there, they commenced a campaign
of terror against all of the japanese
who had testified against them. They
were again arrested on the charge OF
having conspired to murder and were
again convicted, this time getting ter
year sentences. To make assurance
doubly sure as to their detention, still
another charge of conspiracy to murder
was laid against them and this was the
| case in court.
The matter was explained to them by
! Doyle at the instance of Attorney Gen
eral Andrews who pointed out thai
| they might as well await the result or
| their appeal There was no mistaking
| their desire in the matter and the cases
went over

Evergreen, Dec. 10.-(Staff Corre- spondence. .)--Evergreen is upon the threshold of a new industry-an indus try whose prospect is pleasing and whose future Is promising.
 This is the growing of peaches, first. the production of strawberries second and the raising of vegetables for Northern markets third.
 It will be surprise to the remain der of the State that vegetables have been grown for shipment out of Ever green for the past twelve years. This business. however. assumed no great importance until recently, but what is now only an indication of what the future promises.
 The great Castleberry fields in the past year attracted the attention of the State to the possibilities of straw berry growing in the section about Evergreen. The strawberry fields of Conecuh County are today steadily encroaching upon the old cotton plan tation. The cotton plant Is giving way to the advance of the strawberry vine and the vegetable plant
 But peach growing is the latest in- dustrial development here. It was in- augurated in fact in 1899, when Col onel E. M. Rumph, the famous Geor- gia peach growef. planted his big or chard of Sloppy" peaches about here. The orchards nave expanded around Evergreen and during the coming sum mer there will be twice as many peach trees in this section than there ever were before.
 Outside of cotton the Georgia peach and the Georgia watermelon are the best advertised agricultural products of the South. The Atlanta papers ad- init that the Georgia peach, the Fiber ta peach is the most toothsome fruit in the world.
 Probably it Is. but there Is some- thing wrong with the market when the Elberta peach from the environs of Fort Valley sell for only seventy five cents a crate while the Slopppey peaches from the hills about Ever green brought $1.50 a crate in the same market. Without disparagement to the EIberta. sweet and delightful peach. the Sloppey peach from the Alabama hills was preferred by the commission men and the customers In the open market.
 What particular merit Is there in the Georgia soil anyhow that makes it the only soil which can grow per- feet peaches, as Georgia people would have the outside world believe? This claim was knocked into smithereens when the Alabama "Sloppey' and the Georgia Elberta met in the open mar ket last May and June. And the FL berta peach grows just as beautiful and just as toothsome upon the Ala

increased. The plants are being put in the ground at every convenient place and next year there will be a heavy increase in the strawberry shipments from Evergreen.
 The other parts of Alabama hardly knows that truck farming is a distinct.
 and profitable business in Conecuh County. and yet they have been ship ping vegetables out of Evergreen for
 the past twelve years. The growth
 of this business has been slow. but
 steady. It has not gone forward in leaps and bounds like the business of growing strawberries and peaches Tomatoes are great products of this
 county. No less than fifteen full cars
 of tomatoes were shipped out of Ever green during the past season. Many other tomatoes went forward to north
 ern consumers by express in express
 cars. The fine climate, the sandy soil,
 with its clay subsoil is said to be ideal
 for the raising of vegetables. In ad dition to the tomatoes, large quantities of cabbages, beans, and radishes went forward last spring and summer In refrigerator cars.
 So well have they done in the raising and selling of vegetables that Ether idge Bros, of this place are going to increase their truck farm near here from twelve to twenty-five acres next spring.
 In reply to a question a member of
 that firm told me. We estimate that
 $25O an acre can be easily cleared in vegetables around Evergreen. Vege-
 tables pay from three to five times as
 much as the production of cotton" In like manner other truck farmers are largely increasing their vegetable acreage. It Is deeply significant that
 within five miles of Evergreen the | growing of cotton is steadily decreas- | ing and the growing of vegetables is steadily increasing.
