cinnamon, ginger. white pepper, black
pepper, and cayenne. All these sam

is the first time this brand has come
to my notice and so far is sold III
only two stores. The label, marked
adulterated, is simply an attempt to
sell adulterated goods in defiance Of
the food law. The samples were OBJ
tanned from Y. Wo Sing, Nuuanu
avenue, and were manufactured by
Closet & Dovers. Portland, Oregon.
Samples We're examined and not

CHEMICAL ENGINE
PUTS OUT BLAZE

The chemical engine proved to be the
only fire apparatus needed for the
slight blaze which brought an alarm
from Box 46 yesterday afternoon. at
about 3 o'clock. The fire was in a
Chinese store on Hotel street near Ma
unakea street and was caused by the
ignition of escaping gas beneath the
building. The damage done was very
slight, consisting principally of the
tearing up of the floor to allow the
firemen a chance to work under the
building.
The store where the fire occurred is
occupied by Yee Yee Chan and the
building is owned by Lau Yin and Lau
Gau, who have $500 of insurance to
protect themselves from loss by fire.
The damage done was merely nominal

At the request of some of the white
physicians of Honolulu, the Advertiser
prints the concluding parts of Dr. Kat
suda IS admirable essay-read at the last
annual meeting of the Hawaiian Medi-
cal Soeiety-on The Management of the
Plague in Japan, with special reference
to the raid on rats. The paper describes
the devastations of the plague at Osaka
in 1899 and in other places later and
then goes on to say:
Most of the plague cases occur dur
Ing the months OF October, November
and December, and the winter epidemic
is always severe This is probably due
to the strong resisting powers of the
plague germs to. cold and dryness of
the winter seasons. The bacilli seem
to loose their vitality great deal un-
iher the strong heat of the summer
sane.
#Nhe number of the infected rats
found in winter time is far greater
than the number of the infected per-
sons in comparison. Rats live mostly
scattered in human dwellings during
the summer time but in winter they
live under ground in groups. which
Facilitates the spreading of the epi-
demic among them. and as their abode

YIELDED ALL TO WIFE
Splendid s~elf-saerihee Of Old SOL
der in the Dark Days of
Age and Poverty.

In point of diversity of charac-
ter the old soldiers in the national
home are not unlike what they were
during the civil war. Character
tends to fxedness. Habits are not
easily changed. Among the mem-
bers Of the home are many whom
any man would be glad to know
and if there are others-as it was
indeed in the civil war, both in the
army and navy find it hard to
think anything unworthy Of one
who still wears the coat of the long
ago days Of the civil war. Time has
dealt not altogether kindly with the
men in every respect. Many Of
them for years had good homes
from which, for one cause or an
other, the light has gone out. In
the hospital one day l came to the
bedside of a veteran who told me
he was SIS years old.
"Haye you a wife?"I asked. He
said he had.
"And how old is she?" [ inquired.
"Eighty-three," was the reply.
"Well," l added, at is certainly
hard for you to be separated at thi;
time of life"
,"Yes," he said, 'but the pension
money was not enough for us both
and so | came here in order that shC
might have it all.'-World To-Day

Was the toast not i~rreverent? Per

The Much Talked of Paulson
Divorce Case Settled Last
Night
MRS. PAULSON GETS DIVORCE
And is Given the Home ant
Several Thousand Dollars
in Land.

Readers of the STANDARD are
familiar with the now famous
Paulson divorce case: How it
was charged that while Mrs.
Paulson was away in Oregon
last winter, Paulson procured a
divorce from her and married
another woman; how Mrs. Paul
son came back from the coast
and succeeded in getting the case
reopened and the divorce set
aside; and was given a judg-
ment of over $4,000 and the home
in Sisseton. Then followed the
arrest of Paulson in Minneapolis
and bringing him to Browns
Valley, his refusal to come over
into South Dakota without re-
QUESTION papers; the attempt to
get some sort of settlement, on
the basis of a divorce being
granted to Paulson. But just
here the old saying that Hell
hath no fury like a woman scorn
ed'', was amply illustrated and
and Mrs. Paulson would consent
to no settlement which con-
templated giving her recreant
hubby his freedom. 1t was
claimed that Paulson had no
money and no property, but
after many months the at
torneys have succeeded in af-
fecting a compromise, with the
result that Mrs. Paulson gets
the divorce, the home in Sisse-
ton and an equity in several
farms.
