The Bum Condition of Marshall Avenue
and Other Streets.

Editor Intelligencer: The bum con-
ditlOn of the majority of the streets of
this city-"The Electric City" and the
city that we have heretofore been
boaeting of being 80 beautiful-is be-
coming unbearably bum. The coua-
try road is far better.
But we started to tell of Marshall
Avenue, one Of the most popular short
residence streets in the city. The
nearly two years. Last summer the
weeds we're cut down and nothing
further done until after Christmas,
when the scrape took q turn of about
thirty minutes up and down the street.
About the first of July the weeds were
again chopped down and about half
dozen loads of dirt dumped on the up
per end Of the street-and then the
slow, poky street gang moved to an
other street. We have walked mp and
down this street for the last year-I
to the ankle, weeds being four and We
feet high on tho edge Of the walk, and
We would be forced to take the center
of the walk-which is the ditch. We
could not take to the street for mud
would swallow us.
We have been to the Alderman from
our Ward and each time got promises
but promises will not remedy the
bum condition Of the street. We have
always been strong supporter of this
good Alderman and We can see NO rea-
we were O step: child. But, we cup
pose election time will roll around
again and We intend to support O man
who will work our streets.
Do not understand Nc as kicking on
any street superintendent. The gen-
tleman who was in charge Of the gang
on our etreet eeemed to want to Ak our
street in good shape, but he did not
have enough hands and teams and was
compelled to skip about, chop weeds
and do the best be could. A good size
walk In front Of our gate and the hole
was never refilled. If we fall Ia that
ditch and get injured We intend to cue
the city OF Anderson for damages.
IT our memory serves III right, the
council agreed on. spending 60 much
money for street paving this year, and
it was supposed that the regular street
force would continue to keep the streets
in repair. Bnt this has not been done
the streets have been allowed to go
on their way rejoicing. x
good taxes and want good streets in
return. And then when we ecoidentIy
get hauled up in front Of the Mayor as
one of his 10 O'Clock mat1nees he never
fails to crack us for good pile of
money. We do not mind paying FOR
our failings and misfortunes, bat we
like to zee Justice dished out in fair
doses. We would like to eco Q good
many. changes in the city government
and believe il we live . few months
longer we will see it. And that &6
for the Alderman who shows mp at the
council meetings! We believe they
deserve it, but should not have voted
1t to themselves. ~ I. ..st l. #

WEDNESDAY, JULY II. 1908
House and Contents Destroyed.

On the night of the 9Th Mrs. A. T..
Brownies house at Denver was burned,
with all it's contents, the family bare
ly escaping with their lives. The lire
was caused by the explosion Of lamp,
which was thought to have been ex-
t'nguished by the last one of the fami-
ly who retired about eleven o'clock;
but the burner was defective, and the
wick must have smOldered and burnt
down until it reached the oil. About
midnight Mrs. Brown and her daugh-
ter, who slept in the room adjoining the
one where the lamp was. awakened by
the noise of the explosion. BY the
time they could wake up her son, Err
nest. and his wife and children, who
slept i'll the end of the house. the whole
house was in flames and they had to
flee at once in theiI night clothes and
bare feet
Kind neighbors sheltered them and
gave them change of clothes. but the
loss falls heavy on Mrs. Browne. who
is the widow of the late A. Evns
Browne, brave Confederate soldier
who died three years ago; also, on the
young son who is just commencing
life with family of small children.
There was no insurance on the build
ing or contents.

It is because most women suffer from
some arrangement of their delicate
organism, the discomfort of which is
less trying when they are in motion
than when standing.
In some states laws compel employers
to provide resting places for their te'
male employees.
But no amount of law can regulate
the hard tasks of these women. They
must get the strength which this work
demands or run the risk of serious
diseases and the surgeons knife.

LOCAL TROUBLES OF
new YORK LIFE

Cashier F. A. Wicket, of the New
York Life Insurance Company, was
seen yesterday by an Advertiser re-
porter in regard to the charges fled
with the Insurance Commissioner by
the Hawaiian Trust Co, agents for the
Prudential Life Insurance Co, of New
ark, n. j.
Mr.. Wicket said, 81 have not very
much to say, for there is not much to
talk about. I am at loss to under
stand what the real trouble is about
unless it is jealousy, which unfortu-
nately exists between certain agents of
life insurance companies, especially
upon the part of the fellow who is get
ting a little short on his business.
Il understood that this matter had
been settled to the satisfaction of all
parties concerned and did not know
that there was any kick coming until
read of the charges in this morning IS
Advertiser. These charges are an at
tempt to discredit the New York Life.
''As far as any investigation is con-
cerned the New York Life courts the

affairs. The company has done it's

to the majority of US that we
do not get quite the amount of
happiness we are entitled to.
Among the countless things
which tend to make us more or

first place. Hannah More said
that sin was generally to be at

a crippled liver with the result

more mental gloom than any
other single thing. And who
can reckon up the fearful aggre-
gate of pain, loss and fear "a
rising from the many diseases
which are familiar to mankind;
like vast cloud it hangs over
multitude no one can number.
You can see these people every
where. For them life can scarce

ness with which they search for
relief and cure. Remedies like

BUYS LAND To
RAJ Sc S|SkL On

Christian Conradt has purchased the
MouritZ lands at Pukoo, Molokai, and
will shortly begin planting sisal on an
extensive scale. He will also continue
to raise cattle on the lands, using the
upper mountain ridges for this pur-
pose, where the pasturage is luxuriant.
The Mouritz place runs from the top
of the mountains to the sea, with the
exception of that section purchased by
Postmaster Bannister sometime ago.
The Bannister land is on the makai
side of the government road. DR..
Mouritz had his residence on the Ban
mister property. but afterwards built a
commodious home beneath a grove of
trees on the upper lands, close to the
mouth of a valley. The Conradts will
take up their residence at Pukoo The
lands are well adapted to the growing
of sisal and Mr.. Conradt expects to
develop sisal into an industry which
viii be entered into by others.
He believes that in time it might
pay to have sisal mill on Molokai.

STORY Of
A RANCH

Case.

If Ikua Purdy knows any good OF

long recital of Encouragement and I'M
proper methods, following the bill OF
particulars. There were no tits be-
tween counsel to enliven the proceed

a ripple of objection.
Ikua agreed with Eben Low and
young Parker that fence should be
constructed to prevent cattle from go
ing over to Humuula and Homer s.
Cattle had frequently been detained IN
pens without food or water. Inbreed-
ing should have been prevented by cut
ting the ranch up in paddocks and sep
arating families. Other methods of
stopping poor cattle from breeding had
been improperly prosecuted under Car
ter's administration.
The witness complained that brand
ing at the Kuihale pen was made a
sport. 1t was Waimea S birthday.

casion. and visitors were allowed to
participate in the run. The dairy at

noxious plants had spread.
One item of interest was the recital
of horse trade between the witness
and Fred Carter, which read like a
chapter from "David Harum.'' The
facts We're complicated, but at the
close of the deal the witness had the
horse and Carter had $45. But the end
was not yet, for the witness was sur
prised to receive letter from Carter,
demanding 500 more on the ground
that Carter had sold him in ignorance
of the fact that he was a race horse.
The witness took exceptions to other
horse deals of Carter's John Cheese

which, in the opinion of the witness,
was worth 800. Akina had secured
an animal for $50 which should have
brought $50 or $40. These two were
the only ones that had struck the
ranch on its bargain day, though the
witness had heard something about a
sale in which John Lindsay figured
the recital of mismanagement went
on. The horses were broken in a way
that caused injuries and death. The
cattle were not properly tanned at all.
