City Schools.

A second month of school work
has closed and we are abundantly
warranted in the assertion that the
scholarship is stronger, more abid-
ing and more infectious. This
marked improvement is due in no
small measure to the fact that the
pupils, during the school hours at
least, are cultivating the habit of
study and the desire to allow every
other pupil the same privilege. We
are not unmindtul, however, that
the assistance given by parents and
patrons in cult,vating regularity of
attendance on the part of pupils
has been manifestly potent. The list

craps and biscuits.
He left Hilo in 1900 or 1901 and was
afterward heard of in San Francisco
as robbing the room of member of
a Hawaiian glee club, who were sing
ing there, and for this he was sem
fenced in 1902 to five years imprison-
ment. With the credits for good be-
havior he was released in something
over three years. Since then he has
been a bricklayer and hold-up man in
San Francisco. His talk about having
been cast off by his family is nom
sense. He shipped for voyage around
the Horn after he had given up his
schooling at st. Louis College and had
been working at different occupations.
His education was the same as hun
dreds of other boys have received here
and his talent in a poetical way de-
veoped after he left school, probably
after he went to jail. as his Hilo ac-
quaintances have no recollection Of it's
evidence while he lived there. He was
an employe of the Hilo Electric Light
Co.. as night engineer, and while there
he probably picked up a smattering
knowledge of electricity. Siemsens

of her first husband and is now living

Johnny Siemsen is keeping up his
reputation as a prevaricator and SHES
at the truth with as much vigor as he
did when he lived here in the Islands.
He Is in no way related to August
Dreier. and his father died long ago,
a suicide, back of oahu Prison. He
was a pioneer planter with Joe Mars
den at Honokaa.
When Siemsen went to the Philip
pines it was aboard transport as
stowaway, or a helper with the mules.
On reaching Manila he was with
white boy and they both entered the
employ of a Chinese who kept res
taurant. Shortly afterward word was
received by his friends In Hilo that
Johnny had been shot six times while
making a brave rescue of Govern
ment mule team. He was looked upon
as a hero and the people In the metrop-
oils of Hawaii were willing to forget
his theft of the pair of old shoes from
a roommate and that his only promi-
nence prior 10 that episode was gained
in the prize ring.
Later on some Hiloites who were In
Manila at the same time with Siemsen
returned and in answer to questions
regarding the health of the young fell
low learned that he was all right, had
never been on the firing line and his
stunt in the Philippines was shooting

known. We brought him to the hos
pital yesterday, which meant five and
half hours ride over a rough road.
He has hardly spoken rational word

at all, with but yes or no."
AT first it was thought there was
small fracture of the skull but DR..
Sawyer or Puunene was called in and,
after consultation, 1t was decided
that the indications were in favor Of
no fractures. Nevertheless the skull
was denuded in one or two places and
there were serious Commissions in other
spots, making 1t very critical case.
Mr.. Wells acknowledges the good Of

A Honolulu Case
Many More Like It in Honolulu.

The following case is but one Of
many similar occurring daily in Homo
lulu. 1t is an easy matter to verify its
correctness. Surely you cannot ask for
better proof than such a conclusive
evidence.
Jurgen Walter of this city tells us
as follows: MY age is 79-well past
the ordinary span of life-and I am
the parent of eight children. Being
so far advanced in years, regard the
relief obtained from Doan's Backache
Kidney Pills.
I suffered from a lame back for
years, but after taking some Of the
pills (procured at HOLSTERS drug
store) was greatly benefited, and am
satisfied the pills did me much good"
Our kidneys filter our blood. They
work night and day. When healthy
they remove about 500 grains of i'm
pure matter daily. when unhealthy
some part of this impure matter is
left In the blood. This brings on many
diseases and symptoms-pain in the
back. headache, nervousness, hot, dry
skin, Rheumatism, govt. gravel. dis
order, eyesight and hearing, dizziness,
irregular heart, debility. drowsiness.
dropsy. deposits in the urine, etc. But
If you keep the filters right you will
have no trouble with your Kidneys.
Doan's Backache Kidney Pills are
sold by all chemists and storekeepers
at so cents per box. or will be mailed

IDEAS AS TO MAJORITY.

in the restaurants and man who was
strong for Brown before the election,

airy, was overheard to say that II there
is TO be another election Iaukea would
beat Brown by at least 200 majority.

believe the Supreme Court would order

DISQUALIFIED

Friday afternoon the Advertiser
inquired of the Attorney Generals Of
flee relative to the report that Charlie
Chillingworth had not resigned as no
tary public. Deputy Attorney General
Fleming answered that he thought the
resignation had been filed, but would
look up and advise this paper later
Not hearing up to a few minutes be-
fore seven o'clock, Attorney General
Peters was communicated with by tel
ephone and answered that he was
reasonably certain that Chillingworth
had resigned several months ago. A
few minutes after this telephone mes
sage was received at this office, Mr.
Peters again rang up and informed
the Advertiser that he had just been
told over the phone by Deputy Attor-
ney General Fleming that he and the
chief clerk of the department had care
fully searched the records and no res
isnation from Mr.. Chillngworth could
be found. If none is there, this will
invalidate the election of Mr.. Chilling
worth. as there is a provision in the
election law covering such failure.
The law is as follows:

Section II. That no person holding

ITS LABOR

waialua Agricultural Co. has made
a practical beginning to assist the
policy OF the Territorial Administration,
approved, as 1t has been largely in
spired, by President Roosevelt, looking
toward a labor supply domiciled upon
the land.
e. d. Tenney, president, and w. w.
Goodale, manager OF the company, con-
ferred at Waialua the other day about
this policy AS result a central piece
of ten acres of land, now covered with
sugar cane. is to be surveyed forth
with for subdivision into lots approx
imately SO by 100 feet as Independent
home sites for laborers. Money will be
advanced to the laborers for building
their cottages. Those now on the plan
tation will have first benefit of the priv
ilege, but similar advantages of indie
pendent homes will be held out as in
ducements to newcomers.
Governor Carter, while enjoying an
outing at Haleiwa. was invited to the
conference of the plantation heads and
the outcome greatly enhances his en-
thusiasm for the success of the policy
of Americanizng the Territory through
the domiciliation OF it's laboring ee-
ment.
Mr.. Tenney invited me over to a
conference with Mr.. Goodale." the Gov
ernor said yesterday afternoon. 1T
was their conference. / was very much
delighted with it.
Their new scheme may complicate
things at the start" the Governor con-
tinued, but in the end II is going to
build up village of independent citi-
zens there. who will find their chief
employment on the plantation.
Human beings are naturally grega-
rious, and they like neighbors, and they
like settlements.
"There are two propositions involved
in the policy of plantations that are
willing to settle labor upon their lands.
One is that o. having the people own
their home lots, wherein they can raise
vegetables and other products for the
subsistence of their families. The other
plan s to have the laborers take up
agricultural lands and become cane
planters. This latter of course requires
a larger area with greater distances
between their houses.
1--WE know of many New England
villages which were originally large
farms. When farming ceased to pay
the owners went into the manufacture
fng business. Had they dropped into
the policy OF never selling any land to
their neighbors they could probably
have kept out saloons, with other I'M
desirable features which towns develop,
and evict any laborer whom they
thought was disorderly or lazy. In do
ing 80. however, they would have kept
their laborers in state of servitude.
But, on the contrary, they sold the
land to the laboring people and Great
ed body of independent. self-respect-
ing citizens, forming an organized vii
lage.
What I take President Roosevelts
idea to be is that, in affairs of protec-
ton to any industry, whatever Is done
ought to be a means of building up
homes of invidduals-free. indepen-
dent, self-respecting citizens.
80 I am more than pleased TO see
that the attitude of at least this one
plantation Is favorable to such re-
suit"

MONEY FROM SOCIETIES.

MONEY FROM SoCl les.
1t will be observed that the list Of
donors to the band fund contains, the
name of the Sisters of Hawaii Ponoi,
$40 The committee in charge of this
fund called at the Advertiser Office last
night to say that the society had voted
the sum of 800 toward the Band Relief
Fund and are ready to pay that
amount, as it is their mission to look
after poor and needy Hawaiians In
quiry of Mr.. Gait brings the informa-
ton that he had received five subscrip-
tions of seventy dollars each from
representative of the societies and he
had receipted for that amount. 1t Is
supposed that the person turning in the
sums wished TO have the societies all
down for an equal amount, and 1t was
not necessary to accept all of the 800.
Resides donating to the band fund, the
Sisters of Hawaii Ponoi are now sup
porting two old Hawaiians who are
without funds.
