AN URGENT NEED
FOR MORE WATER

Editor Advertiser: 1t seems high
time that something be done to relieve
the situation now facing this COM
munity in regard to the scarcity of
water. Enough has been said during
the past few years, both in the public
press and elsewhere, to make it GER
tain that every one connected with the
government, from the Governor down,
must long have known of the urgent
necessity of providing a better, more
abundant and more certain supply than
at present exists.
Citizens are required to pay in ad-
vance for water privileges: their
rates are based on the size of the
house and grounds, and, in regard to
the latter, the question of irrigation
is naturally taken into account and a
sufficient charge made for an adequate
supply.
Now season of dry weather comes
along, the Nuuanu reservoir becomes
depleted, and the department first re-
stricts the use of water for irrigating
purposes to two hours a day instead
of four, and then finally 'prohibits -
irrigation entirely in that section of
the city dependent on this source of
supply (the full rate, however, still go
ing on as before). Yet, if L am not
greatly mistaken, when the new water
mains We're laid last year, it was rep
resented that these We're all connected
with the pumps, so that, in an emer-
gency like the present, the entire city
could be supplied with artesian water.
Why is this not being done3
Further, it is a matter of common
knowledge that for several years past
a large high-lift pump, intended par
ticularly for supplying the higher
levels. has been lying idle at the Iron
Works, because of "lack of funds -
to install it. Why, then, in view of
the palpably obvious necessity of an
abundant supply of pure water (not
the foul, unwholesome, germ-laden hq
water privileges ~ does not the
is so much time being consumed over
the proposed park on Tantalus or
Punchbowl, it cannot be mere lack of
funds that holds back necessity
while providing for a luxury.
1t is serious matter where one has
spent considerable money and years of
time in making the surroundings of
his home attractive and pleasant, with |
grass, flowers, and fruit and shade
trees, to contemplate their utter de-
struction and ruin within few weeks, |
if irrigation is to be entirely stopped. |
I repeat, Mr. Editor, it is time to |
act: the situation is acute, unbearable !
and appears like ans outrageous indif- |
ference on the part of the authorities
to the well known needs of the people.

MUST NOT LEAVE COUNTRY
An Unwritten Law Governs Presi-
dents When Travelling and in
Receiving Presents.

The president must not leave the
United States even for q day. This Is an
old, unwritten law which has been re-
spected by all successors OF George
Washington, with. perhaps one or two
exceptions. This restriction is not i'm
posed by statute, President Mckinley
emphasized his respect for this rule on
his tour to the south and west. 1t was
unoflcially announced that he would
meet President Diaz Of Mexico some
where near the boundary of that sister
republic. A controversy as to whether
Mr.. Mckinley might properly cross the
Mexican line, even for few hours,
arose. Early in May, when he visited
FL Paso, Tex, where he was greeted by
President DiaZ's personal representa-
tive, he expressed desire to take a look
into Mexico.
From Ell Paso there extends into
Mexico the international bridge span
ming the Rio Grande. Whether the
president would dare to cross this struc-
ture or not was the question which men,
bers of his party asked one another. He
cid not. He went to the bridge and
caught view of the Sierre Madre. Halt
way across the bridge was line. Step
ping over this was putting foot upon
Mexican territory.
President Harrison had ventured as
far as this line ten years before. But
President Mckinley did not SO much as
place his foot upon the bridge. Presi-
dent Arthur was accused Of violating
this unwritten law in October, 1883, upon
a pleasure trip to Alexandria bay,
Thousand islands. His political enemies
accused him then of venturing across the
Canadian line on a. fishing excursion.
The boundary between Canada and New
York extends to the middle OF the St.
Lawrence river.
President Cleveland was similarly ac-
cused. On one of his hunting trips to
North Carolina he sailed by the ocean
route past Cape Hatteras- His enemies
commended that he ventured outside the
| three-mile limit. According to inter-
national law, a country's possessions
extend for three miles outside it's coast
line. Plying the seas further than this
is leaving home territory.
| The president must not accept gifts
of great value from Interiors in the fed
eral service, but he may accept gifts
from foreigners. Grant, Mckinley and
Mrs. Roosevelt have received gifts from
foreign rulers. Several gifts have been
sent to Mr. Roosevelt from the west.

THE VEGETABLE CELLAR.
A Suggestion to Farmers Who Have
Furnaces-How One Man ::
Managed.

In the winter is the time the farmer
takes TO lay his plans for the future.
We think that nothing will he bet
ter worth his attention this winter
than the question of a storage cellar
for potatoes, cabbages, squashes and
other products of the field. There was
a time when the cellar under the farm
house was cool enough in winter TO
keep most of the vegetables that It
was desired to keep for some months.
But little by little the big furnace has
invaded the home of the farmer, and
the cellar is no longer the COOL storage
place it was, says the Farmers Re
view. The night temperature now runs
to so degrees and the Gay temperature
to 10 degrees and higher.
All farm vegetables begin to show
deterioration in a few weeks frUu1 IT,

wilt and the potatoes sbr;ve' and seZ,''

shirtwaists made of wash materials; not
necessarily cotton, for many of the
woods wash beautifully, and the China
silks can be subjected to water and iron,
Cashmere, after a long period of lying

comes in a wide'variety of shades. It is
an excellent choice for the wash waist,
and can be employed for the shirt OF SER
vice, or. in delicate tint, for dressy at.
fairs.
Checks are liked for the severe waist,
and plaids in lightweight woolens, as
well as in silks, are popular. Red CASH
mere makes a very pretty waist, and is
fashionable at present. Blue and green
checks have had quite long day, and
still continue in favor. A one-colored
waist IS touched up with pipings Of bril-
liant plaid. but the style of making
should be of tailor plainness. Straps
and bands, stitched with exactness, give
the tailor touch like once more, and
platts and tucks are used. Buttons are
used extensively, all the ornamentation
is on what may: be called the mannish
order: The shirtwaist girl of the period
Is trim, not fussy. That is reserved for
the evening dress damsel.
One silk waist at least should be in
cluded In the wardrobe, and a good
choice for this is a rather heavy silk
with dark foundation broken here and
there by flecks or waves Of some vivid
color. One fashion expert speaks of this
modish material as on the rag carpet"
order, and it is not unlike that floor
covering now only dimly remembered.
The model shown in our illustration
has style and simplicity, and such a
waist has nothing aboutSit that would
spoil In the wash. The short yoke is
continued In the form Of straps on the
sides, down the center of the front there
is a double box plat fastening with but
tons and button holes. The sleeves are
decidedly full above the elbow, the long
CUT extends from elbow to wrist. And
a word Of caution in reference to this
cuff; 1t should be fitted with utmost
care, to look trim be fairly tight, so
tight 1t will need the buttons for use
as we'll as ornament. A sleeve that slips
over the hand easily rarely fits well.

BETTER HORSES ARE USED
Business Houses Of Standing in West
ern City Longer Use
"Plugs."

"1've noticed many changes in town
since I was here three years ago." said
a Texan who ships his cattle to the Kan
sas City market, reports the Kansas
City Star, "and next to the city's great
growth, the greatest difference is-well,
you couldn't guess. What impressed me
is the difference in the horses seen on
the streets. A few years ago anything
with four hoofs and not too feeble to
arouse the Humane society was consid-
cred good enough to draw a wagon in
Kansas City. But I notice now that
merchants of any standing look upon
the appearance Of their horses and wag-
ons as an important factor in their
standing among the people. don't care
how fine store a man may have if he
sends his goods out in a shabby, half
painted wagon, drawn by a plug, he
gives himself harmful advertising. Look
at the horses and wagons of live con-
Germs and you'll find good looking AMI
mails, stronga and well-groomed, and wag-
ons that are as clean as carriage.
Down Mt the horse markets they tell
me that the quality Of the draught horse
in the city is steadily improving. The
plugs are no longer sought for by the
city trade. Once only the brewers and
packers used fine, big horses, but now
the good draught horses are the rule and
understood and scrawny ones the excep-
ton. In the last few years fine specl-
mems of imported stations have been
sold in Kansas and Missouri and their
presence is apparent in the young horses
now sent to the market. j.
Good horses mean good harness and
vehicles. There's nothing that helps
the appearance Of a town more"
