SLAUGHTERED
An Engin Crashed Into a Caboose
 Where they Were.

San Bernardino, Cal, Aug. 17.-Six Mexican track laporers were killed and six or seven fatally injured as a result of a rear end collision between a Santa Fe work train and an extra south bound freight at Horseshoe Bend twelve mkes south of Corona, at 6 o'clock this evening. The work train crew had just finished work for the day and was preparing to run to San Bernardino when the freight crashed into the caboose, where the wOrkmen were congregated, telescoping it and causing a terrible slaughter.
 Five were killed instantly and one died later. Other deaths will occur before morning. All of the Mexicans reside in San Bernardino, number of them having families here.
 All the work trains crews are sup posed to protect themselves by flags some distance in front and rear, but it is not known here whether flags were placed Or not.

PHOENIX NOT so WARM
This Towns Honorable Record for
 the Month of July.

The Arizona Star of Tucson has kept it's readers in a state of remindfulness about the extraordinarily high tenn perature of Phoenix in midsummer and has frequently made the statement that it is the. hottest place in Arizona or the United States and perhaps the world. The Star has intimated as closely as 1t could without the use of the word hell" that Phoenix is so. hot that it has. no business to be on earth at all.
 The weather bureau of this city has compiled some figures regarding July heat in this territory this year and it is found that in list of thirteen places Phoenix occupies an honorable place. Its highest temperature for the month was 116; only one other place was so low and that was strangely Yuma. But Yuma's decent record may be ac- counted for by the fact that the Sal ton sea was favoring it with it's cool ing. breezes Only three places on the list show a lower average of tempera- ture for the month.
 The following is the list:

LAWS FOR WOMEN.
Business League Thinks New York
 Has Worst of any State

The legislative committee held sway at the Convention of the National Bus ness Women's League, yesterday morn ing, and New York state was found guilty of having about the worst laws for women of any state in the union.
 "The inheritance laws are very cur iOus and complicated" said Mrs. Har- riett Nj. J. Wood, but always favor the man.. A woman may work hard all her days, economizing as only a/wo- man can, economic, to build up her husbands fortune, but her family, her parents, her brothers and sisters will never have any benefit from it, If the husband dies inestate, and without di- rect heirs, all his property. except the small portion that the law allows the wife. will go to his family with pre- ference for his father. As one judge said, the object of the inheritance Jaw is to give the property to the person for whom the decedant might be sup posed to have the greatest affection, and, of course a man must be more at tached to his father than to his moth CT. The same principle, no doubt, gov erns the law regarding the guardian ship of children. Tn New York state the father has the preference, from which We may infer that children are generally supposed 10 nave more af- lection for tkeir father than for their mother.
 Women don't know these things" proceeded Mrs. Wood, until they are up against them"
 Yes said Mrs. Theodore Baker, "it is astounding how little women in this country know about the laws that con trol their property, and other things that concern them. Foreign women are much better informed"
 So it was voted that the league should take steps to become thorough ly posted on this subject. 4 session will be devoted to-it at the next con vention,t and nieanwliile a committee of one, preferably a woman lawyer, will be appointed in each state organ ized, to collect, data and watch the leg islatures, with a view to preventihg the enactmentt of laws adverserfo women and taking advantage of any opportu- nifty to secure favorable legislation.
 We don't want to let the men have OsT dover right while they give us nothing in return and themselves re- tain the right of courtesy" remarked Mrs. Wood. "DOwer, you know, is a life interest in q third of a husbands real estate, while courtesy is a life in terest in the whole of a womans prop erty.'
 The only state whose laws the wo- men entirely approve of at present is COlOradO.-M. r. Tribune.

THE PREsuMPTUous JAPANESE.

It is presumptuOus in the Japanese to change the name of the Gulf of Tartary. This water between the Is land Of Sagha1ien and the Asiatic mainland appears on early Russian maps without Q designation But since that stout old voyager, La Per ouse, eplored it in 17S7, it has been known as the Strait, or Channel, or Gulf of Tartary, so appearing on the atlas of La Perouses voyage" 179S). After all these years what right have the conquerors of Saghalien to sub stitute "Maniya strait" in honor of the Japanese who discovered" it in 1908? in days of knowledge but little precise Tartary was, roughly, the country ly- ing between the Sea of Japan and the River Dneiper. The name Tartary has almost disappeared from geoSra phical literature, but this is because of new and accurate classificatiOns, and not the privilege to destroy the record of other valor. It took valor-valOr diff ferent," as Carlyle says, from feroc- ity''-to do what the venturesome vovagers of old accomplished. Ana memnon's was a small audacity," in deed, and of small account to civili- zation, compared with that of the Erilksons, Columbuses, BaIboas, Ser ings and La Perouses. Geographers win scarcely countenance such arro- gant attempts to set aside the honor arms.-N. Y. Evening Post.

pie do not visit Tantalus. Statistics
are being gathered to show that large
number of the school children of this
city make frequent use of Tantalus for
a mountain outing.
From the Royal School comes the re-
port that from their $50 pupils who are
above ten years of age 200 have been
up Tantalus at one time or another,
While 100 have been up within year
With the more attractive lookout
points made accessible by the mex
pensiye trail already mentioned, and by
another which is projected from near
the end of the car line in Manoa VAL
ley, the park would be much more used
than it is at present, and would attract
many persons who do not now visit
Tantalus.
This spur looking into Manoa Valley
which is not included in the park as
! bounded by the road line would be-
come a most valued and much used
part of the reservation.
Besides its value as recreation
ground for the people of the Territory,
the Tantalus park would prove another
attraction to the visitor to Honolulu
which by causing him to carry away
pleasant memories of the city would
tend to bring more tourists to our
shores.
As it is now. Mr.. E. NJ Boyd, Secre-
tary of the Hawaiian Promotion Com
mittee, estimates that Tantalus is
visited by 80 per cent of the tourists
coming to Honolulu.
In answer to the argument that there
is no need to create a park on Tantalus
because the Governor can by proclama-
ton set it apart as a forest reserve
there is the very decided objection that
the objects and ideals of parks and of
forest reserves are not at all the same.
A forest reserve is made primarily for
economic reasons. to protect the forest
that it may be utilized for commercial
ends. either through the sale of forest
products, or. as is the case in many OF
the forest reserves proposed in this
Territory. by protecting the water
sheds of streams that supply irrigation
systems.
a park is created primarily to pre-
serve for public use localities of par
ticular beauty or those which contrib
ute in special ways to the health or
enjoyment Of the people.
). 1t has been further argued that
as the Governor has the right to set
aside land at Waikiki for park pur-
poses, that he can do the same on Tan
talus. The cases are not similar. The
lots at Waikiki adjoin and are logic
ally part Of the existing park. Under
the existing law the Park Commission
has the care OF Kapiolani Park only
The land on PunchbowI and Tantalus
has no possible connection with Wal
lzikf Therefore it IS matter for
legislative rather than executive action

and consequently left for sale, and that
the objects of the park are as well met
as by the lower line.
The objections to the road as a bound
airy line are as as follows:
The area left above the line consist 3
only of the bare peak of Tantalus and
the windswept fiat on the Manoa side
near the pond. No provision is made
for any good picnic ground nor for the
public to have access to the attractive
points overlooking Manoa Valley Fur
thermore, one of the features of Tan
talus and one of the reasons why it IS
desired to reserve the area is because
of the forest of native koa and kukui
trees which clothe the gulch s des.
Practically all of this forest is below
the line of the road. or makai of lots
s and for the steep sides of the peak
of Tantalus are covered with grass and
are without forest trees.
To limit the park to the area above
the road would be to say to the public
you may keep on the road and on the
steep trail of the summit, you may pic
mic by the pond if the wind allows you
and you may then walk along the road
and look at the warning signs on pri-
vate property
The compromise line has the advan-
tage of including as a part of the park
the desirable points overlooking Manoa
Valley and a portion of the steep sides
of the gulch on the west side. 1t is
argued that, as the lower part of the
gulch is too steep for anything but for
est. it does not matter whether it be
reserved or not. but this is an argument
tage by including this area, because if
it is within the limits of the PARK 1t
can be under the control and in the
custody Of a Park Commission, where
a s if it is left out it becomes a tract
in which no one has authority or con-
trolling interest.
The advantages of the lower line are
that it reserves for public use the sav-
eral areas already mentioned. the look
out points over Nanoa Valley and tie
picnic ground on the eastern side. It
includes all the forest in the gulches,
nearly down to the land controlled by
the Honolulu Water Works. And, al
though il embraces a much larger area
than either Of the other lines, the
greater part of this additional area con-

remaining lots sold, the public would

every side the forbidding signs of ''pri-
vate property" mo trespassing' and

Tt is a lamentable fact. and one
which is not generally known, that the

to the pea of Tantalus runs through

short-sightedness of a former Superin-
may at any moment be barred from
using this trail. which at present is the
most accessible one to the peak.
Although covering considerable area,
there is really very little government
land left on Tantalus that is suitable
for lots. On the western side especially
the slopes are so steep that there is
not even room for house site without
digging away the hillside, much less
for a fair-sized lot.
Furthermore, one of the largest areas
designated on the map as X is not
suitable for house lots, as it is too low
between the ridges to have any outlook,
and besides is swampy and wet in the
ordinary trade wind weather. At its
lower end a fiat, welI-drained area f.
the only suitable picnic ground of any
size on Tantalus. If this lot were sold
it would remove the last chance for the
public to enjoy this form of recreation.
As the argument that the present
owners on Tantalus are the ones to be
benefited. seems in part to have been
directed against Mr.. w. r. Castle, who
at one time owned a considerable area
within the limits of the proposed park.
Mr.. Castle authorizes the statement
that he does not now own one square
inch of land inside the proposed park
area: that the only piece that he does
own in the neighborhood, outside OF the
proposed limits Gan area of about two
acres), he will for one dollar deed to

that il has been his intention for sore
time to turn this area over to the gov
eminent for this use.
8. Because of the argument that the
area of the proposed park is too large
these lines have been suggested as the
lower or makai boundary, as follows:
