All FONG IS DEAD.
Millionaire Chinaman Whose Daughter
Married Admiral Whiting.

Honolulu, Sept 2S.-News has been
received here that All Fong, the we'll
known Chinese capitalist, formerly Of
Hawaii. died in China on Tuesday,
September %
It was in 1858 that a ship laden with
Chinese immigrants, most of them
coolies, sailed into the harbor Of Homo
lulu and discharged its living cargo.
Among the immigrants was a young
man whose bearing and intelligence eff
speech and c0untenance singled him
out from among the common planta-
tio2 coolies, who were his companions
of the voyage. Wing All Fong he call
ed himself. He did not go to the
plantations with the imported labOrers.
but stayed in Honolulu. He had
brought some capital with him, and
he went into business. There was a
considerable and a growing Chinese
population in the Hawaiian islands, and
Chinese merchants did a good business
1n supplying their countrymen with
articles of luxury and use of Chinese
character.
Tt was not long before All Fong was
one Of the leading Chinese merchants
of the Hawaiian capital "A few years
more and he was the foremost Chi
nese merchant there. His wealth in
creased rapidly, and his investments re-
turned a profit many fold. He bought
sugar plantations and extended his
business operations in every direction.
He had been in Honolulu three years,
and was prosperous, but not of great
wealth as yet. when he fell in love
Years before there had appeared in
Hawaii a sailor. half Portuguese and
half English. who had left his ship and
chosen the splendid islands of the sun
as a place in which to make his for
tune.
There was mystery. of course. about
the sailor who had taken his chest
ashore, for a fun due" and set up in
business in Honolulu. On his fathers
side he was said to belong TO a wealthy
English family, and on his mothers side
It was said he inherited noble blood

WALSH A REFORMER.
Millionaire Favors Income Tax and
Government Savings Banks.

Colorado Springs, Col, Sept. 2s.-In
a speech at the Pike centennial ban
quet last night Mr.. Thomas A Walsh
a millionaire mining man of Colorado,
said he feared for the future of his
beloved country If favors were not
more equally bestowed. He believed
some method should be devised for
giving the laborer a larger share of the
profits from his work. The govern
ment should originate and conduct
some cheap plan of Insurance for the
poor. He favored an income tax that
would place the burdens of the gov
eminent on the rich, those who could
best afford to pay.
1T is humiliating injustice, % he said
Ito have the owner of a humble little
cottage, raising five or six children,
taxed for the shelter for himself and
family"
He could see no reason why the
government should not start a depart
ment of savings to assist the poor man.

1T HAS NO CONSCIENCE
The Corporation Must Be Dealt With
Accordingly, Says Garfield.

New York, Sept. 2S.-James R. Car
field. commissioner of commerce and
labor, in an address at the opening ex-
ercises of the school of commerce, ac-
counts and finance of the University OF
New York, last night said:
The problems Of business are no
longer single. They are no longer the
problems of the Individual. They are
the problems of the corporal atoms. a coz
poration has great power-greater than
that of the individual and hence of
greater responsibility 1t is a creature
of the state and should be controlled by
the state. The individual is lost in the
corporation. This loss of personal re-
sponsibility has resulted in the loss OF
conscience. Corporations do what in
dividuals can not.
Despite this the corporation is a
great agency for good. But 1t IS worse
than useless to inveigh against corpor-
ations. The man who seeks to over
throw must have something 20 Offer as
a substitute. To destroy All corpora
lions would be bad. It Is for educated
men to find out what is evil in the cor
porations of today and to destroy it and
to make the corporations better and
stronger

There have been a great number OF
points of difference in tho interpreta-
ton of the new rules to arise since the
careful and painstaking study of the

favorable and there has been no sug-
gestion to reach them urging the neces-

but I used to say nonsense it don't

that my whole nervous force was
shattered.
My heart became weak and uncer-

me. Finally my physician told me,
about a year ago, that 1 must stop
drinking coffee or I could never ex-
pect to be well again.
Il was in despair for the very
thought of the medicines I had tried
SO many times nauseated me. OF
course I thought of Postum but could
hardly bring myself to give up the
coffee. Finally I concluded that I
owed it to myself to give Postum a
trial. So I got package and carefully
followed the directions, and what a
delicious, nourishing, rich drink 1t
was. Do you know found it very
easy to shift from the coffee to Postum

change I found myself better and as
the days went by kept on improving

PoRKERs ARE SCARCE AND HIGH
Hogs Hard to Get Now at Any
Price.

Pork is higher now than it has been
for several years; the wholesale prices
have increased from $3.50 a hundred
pounds, the prevailing price at this
time last year, to 1852, an increase of
more than Is per cent.
The increases in the retail prices are
proportional.
The scarcity of hogs at this time of
the year is nothing unusual. in fact, it
seems to be the regular thing, only
that the scarcity is more pronounced
this year than last.
Raisers Of hogs don't dispose of
them until later in the fall-they are
keeping them in the hig lots and fat
tening them for better prices. 1t is the
season of betwixt and between-all Of
the hogs which were fattened for sale
this year have been bought up and as
a result the Wolff Packing company as
well as the other big packing houses Of
the state have but little to do in pork
packing.
