PETER HIGH

Correspondence Passed
Regarding Lumber
Contract.

On the 18th of December last the con-
tract for supplying lumber to the set
| tlement on Molokai was awarded to
Peter High. Almost Immediately there
| after the President of the Board of
Health asked the Attorney General for
an opinion as to whether he had the
power to refuse to accept lumber under
the High contract, in the event that it
should be shown that the lumber was
handled or dressed by Asiatic labor
Pinkham, who at once sat down and
wrote to Mr.. High the following let
ter:
Honolulu, Hawaii, January 8, 1905
Peter High Esq, Honolulu, T. H
Dear Sir: My attention having been
called to claim that your lumber is
handled and miIled by alien labor, an
opinion has been asked from the At
torney General whether, if such is the
case, this department could legally ac-
cept lumber so handled and milled.
Opinion 81 informs me that this de-
partment cannot accept lawfully Ium-
ber so handled or milled. I should be
pleased to receive a statement in writ
ing relative to this matter, should this
request meet with your pleasure.
Yours very truly,
L. E. PINKHAM
President Board of Health
The story of this incident without
the letter of Pinkham, was published
in the Advertiser at the time. and Mr.
Highs statement that he did not en-
ploy Asiatic labor was also printed.
AS to the president of the Board OF
Health Mr.. High answered his letter,
a proper answer enough, in view of
the fact that Mr.. High is an American
not a criminal, and entitled /
under any Interpretation of law to
know the name of his accuser. This t

MIR. HiIIyer's Burglar Alarm.

Mr.. Hillyer was heavy sleeper.
He was man also with chronic
fear of burglars. It was these two
things that led him to have the win
dow of his sleeping room equipped
with burglar alarm of the latest
and most approved description.
A few mornings after the device
had been installed he came down to
breakfast with grin on his face.
81 had a funny dream last night"
he said. 81 dreamed that burglar
raised my window and the alarm
went off, but he didn't seem to mind
it. He rummaged the bureau draw
ers, found my watch and pocket
book and slipped out the way he
came in. By the way" he added,
81 forgot to bring down my watch
and pocketbook. I'll go and get
them"
He went upstairs and returned in
a moment with an entirely different
look on his face. The watch and
pocketbook were gone. 1t had not
been a dream.

A Touching Tribute.

In tiny country village in New
England a woman died recently, and
her relatives, friends and neighbors
decided that woman who had been
so popular in life deserved some
thing out Of the ordinary in the
way of a funeral.
The village did not boast of a
band, but it had a drum corps,
which was hired to do honor to the
occasion. Solemnly it played on the
way to the cemetery, but on the re-
turn it was asked to play something
livelier as sort of quickstep home.
But the drum corps had made a
speciality of serious music and knew
only one lively air. However, it
was perfectly willing to play the on
ly cheerful bit of music it knew,
and the funeral procession went
cheerily home to the strains of "The
Girl [ Left Behind Me. New
York Times.
