INDIscRIMINATE charity is often
more harmful than no charity at ali
and there is no doubt but that an or
ganization which took in all the diff
ferent societies in the city which an
nual1y devote share of their receipts
to the relief of the poor and needy as
well as the individuals who are not
affiliated with any of the societies
but who are always ready to respond
to any call for help, would result in
great saving all around. AS it is
now the "repeaters" get more than
their fair share while many deserving
cases are overlooked entirely be-
cause of the lack of system in the re-
lief work. The organization should
have a regular agent whose duty it
would be to investigate every app1i-
cation for aid and extend such help as
he judged advisable. His work could
be done with absolute secrecy and
none but the officers of the organiza-
ton need know the names on his list.
In this way many deserving persons
who now suffer in silence rather than
ask for aid through the regular chan
nels because they fear that their con-
dition will become generally known
would get the help they need and the
allowances made to those who now
lrav help from every source will be
cut down within proper limits.

THE railway rate commission BIZ
will undoubtedly be amended SO as to
permit the railroads to give reduced
rates to homeseekers, sell students
tickets, and give passes to old en-
p1oyes, but there is no way the rail-
roads can be forced to grant these
favors. 1t is entirely optional with
the companies and it is doubtful if
the railway officials will see their way
clear to cutting down the revenues of
their roads by reducing rates.

RECORD FOR WHEATLAND
Swamp in Western Town Yields Large
Bounties for Crows and Hen Hawks

w
Frank Kretchmer who resides near
the tamarack swamp in the town of
Wheatland, has secured the record
for the amount of bounties paid by
the county for heads of hawks and
crows. This morning Kretchmer
brought to the county clerk forty-two
crows heads and twenty three taken
from slain hen hawks. The bounty
amounted to within five cents of a
ten dollar bill. It is claimed that
crows and hen hawks use the tama-
rack swamp as roost and the farmers
in that neighborhood during the
winter months expect to reap a
harvest in the way of bonnties.
Thousands of the birds fly into the
swamp every evening and it is claimed
that two or three of them can be
brought down with a single charge
from shot gun. Kretchmer killed
nearly all of the birds reported today
in single evening.

THE ORGAN RECITAL
Yule Memorial Organ at First Baptist
Church Dedicated Friday Night

@AAt&A IA DCeA1CAtCO Il I1u0y 1&1EsnC
a very large audience, crowding
the auditorium and overlooking into
the Sunday school rooms, assembled
at the Baptist church Friday night at
the Yule Memorial Organ Recital.
Many prominent musical people of the
city were present, as well as the large
number, who, without especial train
ing, enjoy thoroughly occasions of
this kind because of the uplift which
real music gives.
The program began few moments
after 8 O'Clock with an invocation by
Mr.. Brown, the pastor of the church,
and then followed four numbers on
the organ by Prof. Halter. OF these
the Swedish Wedding March,
seemed to be especially pleasing to
the audience. A quartette, composed
of Mrs. McCarron, Mrs. Hubbard, Mr..
Anderson and Mr.. Hubbard, then rem
dered "Still, Still with fhee," in an
artistic manner and was ronnd1y ap-
plauded.
Two selections on the organ of
quite different character then showed
by way of contrast the quality of the
organ IN the softer parts and in it's
heavier tones, and then followed the
solo, beloved, it is Morn by Miss
Merriam. This was the first time
that general audience heard Miss
Merriam, and in this selection and in
those which she sang later, the listen
ers we're much pleased with the quail
ity of her voice and attracted by her
pleasing personality. She was heart
lily encored.
Of. later selections on the organ
covering wide range and bringing
out the possibilities of the instrument,
the Pilgrims Song of Hope and
the two selections by Wagner, met
with the heartiest response from the
hearers who also greatly appreciated
annie Laurie, I" which was played as
as an encore by special request. Prof.
Hubbard in his usual pleasing way
sang The Gipsey" and s'The Little
Irish Girl" and was received as he
he always is by enosha audience,
and was genial1y encored. Mrs. Ho1-
lister served ski11fully as accompan-
ist.
The music committee of the church
report a generous offering received
and the members of the society are
much pleased with the success of this
occasion.

AWARDED 1915 DAMAGES
Commissioners on Condemnation Pro.
ceedings Complete Work Today

The board of commissioners, COM
posed of c. III. Whitcher, A. A. Bur-
CESS, and Robert Nico11, appointed to
assess the value of land to be taken
for the extension of the Wisconsin
Central railways tracks in the
county, concluded its work today and
the report has been filed in the Office
Of the clerk of the circuit court. BY
the terms of the award the property
owners will receive the sum of $675.
The company has taken about four
acres of land to extend switch track.
The fight for the condemnation of
the property has been on in the cir
cult court for the better part of
year, but it is thought that the award
of the commission will be satisfactory
to all concerned. The attorneys for
the railway company will pay the
money into the court at once and it
will be paid out as soon as the proper
heirs to the property in question have
been determined.

SURVEY FOR A NEW LINE
Milwaukee Company to Straighten
Electric Railway

NM1AWduAGG (Ou1 pduy W
Electric Railway
It is not generally known that Man
ager John I. Beggs, of the Milwaukee
Electric Railway company, has
corps Of engineers at work surveying
new line between Racine and Mil
yankee to parallel the new steam
road being constructed by the Chica-
go & Northwestern, but such is
positive fact. The one used at pres
ent between Milwaukee and Racine
follows or is part of the highway
and is as crooked and rough as a
rams horn. The new line will be on
the company's own right of way and
possibly the old roadbed may be
abandoned. This is undoubtedly a
part of Mr.. Begg's plan to make his
suburban system one of the finest in
the United States. The schedule or
running time between Milwaukee and
Racine is now one hour and a half,
but under the new conditions will be
cut down to an hour at least.

The Jones jury had luncheon sent to
them today in the judiciary building.
They remained locked up and apparent
ly beginning to abandon hope of agree
ing. More than half of them lay on the
benches in the courtroom where they
are confined and slept or tried to sleep.
Others kept up the long argument over
the case submitted for decision.
The jury has used a whole pad of
writing paper and was this morning
supplied with another. This indicates
a large number of ballots.
1t is believed that Judge Robinson
will keep the jurors out for a long time,
in the hope of getting a verdict Of some
sort. One unusual fact is that 80 far,
though they have had the case over 2l
hours, the Jurors have not reported a
disagreement or asked to be discharged.
This shows, in the opinion of those
watching the case, that they are hard
at work that the successive ballots have
shown changes in the standing of the
twelve men and that they are hopeful
of finally agreeing.
The Jones jury came into court again
this morning for further instructions
They wanted to know about penalties

two ladies, who 1 understand were her

w. II. Underwood and lie Grand
Brown, who chartered the steamer Iva

and to investigate the guano deposits
there, have concluded their work here

At the Alexander Young Hotel where
they are stopping, Mr.. Underwood last
evening spoke of the venture, its OBJ

''The Island was represented to u.s."
he said, "as being likely to offer a pro-
fitable source of guano. We decided to
see for ourselves what it was, and what
it had. We investigated both the SOW
erignty and the title of the Island.
There is no doubt that the sovereignty
over the island is in the United States
of America. The British Admiralty re-
ports and charts all recognize that.
There is abundant evidence of it in the
State Department. The title is un-

JURY STILL HAS JONES CASE

ment among the jurors was over the
question of the degree of murder or
manslaughter to be named in their ver-
dict.
This morning the request for ms
tructions regarding penalties was an
swered by Judge Robinson by reading
from the Revised Laws OF Hawaii, the
sections providing punishment for muir
der and manslaughter, in the various
degrees.
Unusual precautions were taken to
preserve the secrecy of the jury's pro-
ceedings. The entire side of the Judi
ciary building where their room is, is
closed to everyone. Bailiffs are at every
corner and they send people who APP
proach to the other side of the build
ing. During the night, while the
jurors were in rooms on the Eva side
of the Young building, a police officer
was stationed In the middle of Bishop
street all night.
There were number of reports as tC
how the jury stood. One said thai
they were nine to three, with the
minority for acquittal Another re-
port was that they stood six to six.

The Stanford case witness referred
to in The Star yesterday was seen to-
day by a Star representative and re-
peated his story substantially as pub

that the police investigated the mat

witness story. The witness in ques-
tion states that he has not been seen
or questioned by the police at all. He
is in Honolulu and can easily be found
at any time, but request has been
granted that his name be not brought
into the matter unless his testimony
proves to be such that it is worth
while to call him.

witness this morning, but 1 may
have remarked that what saw looked

and discovered guano there. He filed
claims under the guano island acts Of
Congress in 1856 and later, and his
claims were allowed. There was liti-
cation over it, and his title was con-
firmed by the courts.
In 1858 Kamehameha ~ sent s. G.
Allen in the Kalama and he took pos
session in the name of the King. But
the Hawaiian claim of sovereignty was
afterwards abandoned, as was the
British claim made in 1892.

and have had it analysed here by the
Hawaiian Fertilizer Company. It is
found, however that the guano is too
low in nitrates and phosphates to make
it profitable as a commercial PROPOSE

as we are concerned.
However, we have had a very en-
joyable trip and sojourn here, and we
do not regret coming. We go away
