Of District Judge John f. Phillips, issued
in March, 1902 restraining the defendants
from giving rebates in violation Of the
interstate commerce law, were fled here

the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific and the
Atchison, Topeka e. Santa Fe Railway
companies These companies are charged
with giving rebates In violation Of the re-
straining order and the court is asked
to cite them for contempt
The contempt proceedings allege specific
ally in the case Of the Chicago & Alton
that that company granted rebates amount
ing to many thousands Of dollars on tho
shipments OF agricultural and farming ma
chinery to the International Harvester
company, which owns and controls the
Deerlng Harvester company, the McCor-
mick Harvester company. the Plano Har-
vester company, the South Chicago Fur

the Chicago & Alton agreed with the Illi-
nois Northern company to file with the
commission pretended joint tariffs Of
freight rates effective from Chicago to
Missouri river points for the express pur-
pose of evadng the restraining order, and
that the Alton agreed and did in fact give
to the International Harvester company
% per cent of said pretended joint tariff
rates.

by giving rebates to the Hutchinson OKan-
sas) Salt company in collusion with the
Hutchinson & Arkansas River railroad,

GOVERNORS
DONATION
iie Gives a Neat Sum
for Arbor Day
Doings.

Superintendent of Public instruction
Davis and Professor Hosmer, of the
Board of Agriculture and Forestry, the
committee appointed by Secretary At
kinson to prepare the program for the
school celebration of Arbor Day, on No
vember 3. made their written report
Yesterday to Mr.. Atkinson, informing.
him of a plan that had been evolved
to offer prizes to the schools for the
best showing.
The same committee was also en-
abled to report to Governor Carter
that they had been sufficiently active
to secure enough money to cover the
latter s very generous offer of $3.50 to
each of the Territory's schools to eel
citrate the day properly. The Cover
nor, on being shown the subscription
list. appended herewith, at once wrote
an order on his bankers for 1885,
which he handed to Professor Hosmer.
The committees report is as follows:
Honolulu, Oct. "a, 1905.
Honorable A. L. C. Atkinson, Secre-
tary of Hawaii, Honolulu.
Sir: We, the undersigned, appoint
ed by YOU as a committee to arrange
the details of the Arbor Day tree
planting contest, beg leave to report
as follows:
We are heartily in favor of the pro-
posed contest, because we believe it is
based on the true spirit of Arbor Day,
which is to awaken and maintain
continued interest in the planting and
care of trees on school grounds and
elsewhere.
To carry out the plan in success
full way, and to arouse the lasting in
terest of both teachers and children,
We recommend:
First, that to every school making
application to the Superintendent of
Public Instruction, prize of not less
than five dollars in value, consisting of
some object of beauty or utility, to be
selected by the teachers of the school,
be offered in each of the public schools
of the Territory, to the grade planting
on school grounds on Arbor Day, No
vember 8, 1905, or before November
Is, 1905, the tree which as the result
of being well cared for is in the best
condition on the succeeding Arbor
Day, and that the prize be Rewarded
each year thereafter under the same
conditions.
oecOHCi, lHdt Inc pIlAS nc tue piop-
erty of the grade winning it for the
period of one year, and each year it
shall have attached to it the name of
the grade winning it, and record
kept of the names of the children in
the grade.
Third, that the planting be done in
strict accordance with the directions
prepared by the Superintendent OF
Forestry and furnished by him to the
principal of each school. These direc-
tions will be drawn up so as to cover
the various conditions existing in the
various parts of the Territory.
Fourth, that the trees be judged be-
fore hand by the school agent of the
district, after an examination of them
and consultation with the teacher of
each competing grade, and the prize
publicly awarded on Arbor Day..
Respectfully yours,

CHAPTER u.
A Green-Haired Woman.


Amos Talbert, the comfortable, gen
lal landlord of the Essex House, had
wife and daughter; the latter un'
married, though not of uncertain age,
as she had not the least objection to
any ones knowing that she was forty
two. With her bright complexion,
brighter eyes and manners, she was
one of the most attractive ladies in
Grovedale, and it was no task, there
fore, for Mrs. Hamilton to chat with
her for few moments.
Have you many guests in the house
now?" she asked Miss Talbert.
Very few steady boarders, but a
good many 'transients.'
81 wonder if the green-haired lady is
gone yet" said Miss Chase, looking
up from her work with a smile.
Eyes, she went on the seven o'clock
train"
son the train with my husband"
thought Mrs. Hamilton; but you may
be sure she did not say this.
Instead she repeated wonderingly,
as she looked at Miss Talbert with po-
lite interest, "a green-haired lady!"
81 am not surprised at your sur
PRISE" said Miss Talbert, laughing.
You would wonder still more if you
were to see her. She came on the
train last night and went away this
morning"
But you don't mean to say her hair
is actually green, do your"
mot bright, vivid green, but
sheeny emerald tint hard to describe.
The sea takes on such a color some
times in the shadow of an overhanging
cliff. You should see it, Mrs. Hamil-
ton. She is very pretty, has lovely
features, and sweet voice. was
quite charmed by her."
81 think she knows Mr.. Hamilton"
said the dressmaker, "for she ran out
to meet him when he came down the
street."
"Ah! perhaps you know her, too"

Jagged terribly, though she made calls,
practiced her music and did sundry
odd Jobs of sewing, the accumulation
of the winter months.
To add to her anxiety she did not
receive one word from her husband.
Meanwhile, she had seen and talked
with Mrs. Fry about the green-haired
lady. Mrs. Fry brought to Mrs. Ham
ilton a basket of freshly ironed mus

parture, and Immediately launched

Mrs Anderson, Newark, N. j."
mo, I do not" she answered, "and
l have never heard my husband speak
of a green-haired acquaintance"
This statement in regard to the
meeting of her husband and the green
haired lady conceded with the glimpse
she had of 1t from her tower, though
at that distance she had not noticed
the color of her hair. An accidental
meeting, evidently; but they went on
in the same train together perhaps In
the same car. If friends, undoubtedly
they rode together. Well, what OF
that? Friends meet each other at ev-
cry turn. Her husband might in the
past have done the woman kindness
or some little service. 1t would be
like him. He would tell her all about
it on his return.
And, with a pleasant adieu to Miss
Chase, Mrs. Hamilton went away.
She called at the Savings Bank in
passing, and Tony Osborn, with his
pen behind his ear, came at once to
speak to her.
Good morning, Tony; very busy, /

awful, now Ham-Mr. Hamilton is

him back-what day, ! mean?" asked
Mrs. Hamilton.
mo. In a week or two, he said.
But it's all a joke about my being
busy. you know, for everything was
nut in shape before he went"
Pm glad to hear you are not driv-
en-" said Mrs. Hamilton, rejecting
that her husband always cleared the
way for others, but took the toughest
l,ath himself. And then she went on
her way. She met Mr.. Henderson,
who stopped to speak to her, and to
ask when her husband would be back
"Only been away six hours and we
miss him already No one can man
age like Vane. In a week or two!
Yes. that's what he told me. But, by

Hamilton.

He saw her and knew her, too,
guess"
Are you sure?"
"She spoke to him. Twas Jest as
l was a comm to the laundry an he
a comm down the street to take the
train. You here?' she says. You
are mistaken says he. oh, yes she
says, 4 did think, an she looked
round at me. Mr.. Hamilton looked
at her pretty close, as if sort of think
in or studyin' of her face, an then he
spoke again, but what 1t was he said l
didn't hear, because, of course, twan't
none of my business. Besides, he
spoke too low"
Probably she was insane"
mo, guess not. She seemed kind
er troubled, though, and folks in
trouble always go to such folks as
your folks. Or else she knew him.
Whichever twas, she was a nice,
modest woman, an dreadful pretty
one"
What Mrs. Fry told her was but lit
tie more than Constance had already
heard, but it gave her much to think
about for several days, indeed, until a
week had passed. But at the end Of
that time an incident occurred which
surprised and alarmed her not lit
tie.
One morning, hearing the door-bell
ring, Mrs. Hamilton opened it her
self, lilly being busy. and was sur
prised to see Tony Osborn standing
there, idly Ticking the dust from his
boot with a small cane.
"Ah, good morning. Mrs. Hamilton.
Jolly weather, isn't it?"
VERY pleasant. Will you come in,
Tony?"
Thanks, no. l just want to see
