and while, if it were necessary, they
would also answer a call from San
Francisco, under the circumstances
they did not believe that it was neces-
sary. The japanese merchants and the
others who We're in a position to give
help could do so in connection with
the general fund being raised, but as
for there being any necessity for a
special japanese fund, or any question
of the japanese being treated any way
but the same as the other sufferers,
the report was incredible
1t was asked what their Consul in
San Francisco was doing to allow the
distinction to be made that he re-
ported in his cable?
A vote being taken, after each one
of those present had made at least one
long speech, resulted in a tie, with the
result that the debate grew more and
more heated. Finally it was decided
to wait for further information, those
who could afford it to help meanwhile
through the general relief committee.
THE CHINESE SOLICITING FUNDS.
A joint meeting of the 30 On AS
ISOLATION and the United Chinese Asso-
citation was held last night in the u.
c. A. Hall, the place being crowded
with members.
Here there was unanirnity of opinion
and a soliciting committee was ap-
pointed to canvass Chinatown for
money, which will be expended by the
&C nmittee for rice and clothing and
ii q rushed to the Coast as soon as
possible. The committee will be at
work today and tomorrow and will re-
port the result of their canvass at a
meeting called for tomorrow night.
e. zap, a prominent local Chinaman,
said last night that Honolulu Chinese
would probably send 1000 bags of rice
to San Francisco to relieve their suf-
fering countrymen.
1t is understood that such an amount
of rice can at present be spared with
out materially affecting the local mar
ket. The cost will be about $4,000
$4,000 of which will be drawn from
the fund raised to support the boycott

FROM THE BEATEN PAPERS.

criticised for issuing it's freak free

1t is deserving of pity more than
criticism. Its struggle with the news
for the past few days has been the
bombastic cavorting of an alleged has
been that never was.
The greatest news crisis Honolulu
has thus far known found every other
paper in the city so far outstripped by
the modern equipment of the Evening
Bulletin that they We're brought to a
standstill. The people got the news
from the Bulletin
After waiting two days the morning
paper found it was so far out of it,
and its equipment so utterly incapable

Mushroom Growing and Mushroom
Spawn Making" is the title Of a very
interesting bulletin Just issued by the
Department Of Agriculture. This is
q subject which, to most farmers, is
surrounded by haze Of mystery and
hesitation, owing to the fact that there
are number OF species Of mushrooms
which are poisonous.
Determining the Poisonous Fungi.
The first question a man will ask is.
How can tell a toadstool from a
mushroom" The Department answers
this question by saying that you can
not tell mushroom from a toadstool
because mushrooms are toadstools.
The general belief is well-nigh univer.

two classes-mushrooms, which are

A Kansas City man has discovered
a novel mothod Of preparing pork for
the market in a way that will give to
the people O meat which is perfectly
wholesome. The theory is advanced
that when a pig is sent to slaughter,
every squeal emitted in the process Of
slaughter Is an audible announcement
Of nervous reaction that effects every
fiber OF its body, producing such
changes as will be detrimental to any
one partaking Of the flesh. The plan
proposed is to drive the porker up an
incline into a small pen. Just as he
steps in the pen the platform tits and
runs him down a chute. At the end
Of this chute there is a bucket of slop
or mash, or any other pig delicacy.
The animal pokes his snout into the
bucket when his whole head is caught

ing mushrooms. 1t Is hardly advisable
to grow them under the living part of
the house, since the odor Of the manure
will permeate the dwelling. Stables
that are not too cold In winter are
suitable.
Preparation of the Beds.
The mushroom bed is best prepared
from horse manure that comes from
well-bedded stables. Some straw is de.
sirable, but a large percentage is OBJ
jectionable and should be removed.
The manure is cured by putting 1t un-

ly a Milaner, an importer of feminine
finery from Milan, just as "cordwain-

curious to note how many words have
come from the geographical names of
northern Italy. There is, for instance,
"forin," the coin Of Florence, and "pis,
tol," from PistOja.
DR.. Johnson said that the word "job"
was "a low word now much in use, OF
which cannot tell the etymology." 1t

records how my lord, said to him, II
