STARTS ON EASTWARD rRiF
Lusitania Hopes to Break Record to
Queenstown,

New York, Sept. 2J-Groomed for
a fast run at top speed across the At
lantic on her first voyage to the east
Ward the Lusitania of the Cunard line
sailed for Queenstown and Liverpool
at 3 p. m. To wrest the record from
Sandy Hook lightship to Daunts Head,
made by the Lucania in 1894, the Lusi-
tania must do better than days, 8
hours and 3S minutes. The Cunard
line officials are making no -predic-
lions, but the general impression in
shipping circles Is that the Lusitania
will be called upon on her return trip
to excel her speed on the westward
voyage. The big Cunard turbiner drew
"a feet 5 inches when she passed out,
nineteen. inches more than when she
came across.

Portland, Ore, Sept. 2).-A special
to the Oregonian from Seattle says
that seventy-seven Japanese miners,
arriving at Atlin to work in the mines,
We're escorted to the river steamer
Cleaner by 800 whites and started
back toward Vancouver.
The white miners served notice upon
the Japanese that if they did not stay

Dor. The Japanese are almost desti-
tute and will be turned loose at Skag-
way, Alaska.

Root Returns to Washinaton.

Washington, Sept 2'.--Secretary
ROOT was at his desk at the state de.
partment during the day and resumed
his work with a zest that indicated
complete recovery from the exhausted
condition In which he left Washington
at the beginning of the summer. His
eye was clear and bright, his COM
plexion was good and there was a
strength in the clasp Of his hand
which showed that the secretary was
in fine physical condition.

FISHERY CASE.

A case is now before the Supreme
curt for decision with reference 20
certain fishing rights in suit of the
Kapiolani Estate VS. the Territory.
The fishery in question is what is
known as a muliwai fishery and the
decision on same will settle a number
OF similar disputes. BY the Organic
Act, all fishing in waters not enclosed
by artificial barrier, or ponds on prI-
vate property, are free to all Ameri-
can citizens for fishing,purposes. The
case in question is where sea fish are
to be taken in the mouth of a stream
or river which is effected by the rise
and fall of the tides. The fishery in
question is situated in the lower reach
es of the Hanapepe river.

THE GIRL IN BLUE.

THE girl in red is a daring dream
OF a revel long and late,
Where the bubbles blink at the wine
cups brink,
And a chaperons out of date.
And the girl in pink is a vision fair
In a garden bright with dew
But in rain or sun, till my life is done,
Pray, give me the girl in blue
The girl in white is a dainty sight
In the moonlight silver pale,
And the blonde in black, she will have
no lack,
OF friends with her beauty frail;
But for tramps a-field in the early
morn,
For a spin in an auto, too,
Or a horseback ride through the sha-
dows pied,
Oh, give me the girl in blue!
Her skirt is round and escapes the
ground,
With a glimpse of an ankle trim,
And a golden belt to enhance the svelte
Sweet curves of her waist so slim,
From her sapphire veil and her sailor
hat
To the tip of her slender shoe,
It'll the ribbons wide, that will come
united,
worship the girl in blue.
Beneath the sweep of her lashes deep
Her eyes are the tender tint
OF turquoise sky when the days are
long
And the clouds are as soft as lint;
And those eyes they shine with love
divine
For me, and good man true,
Today, behold! by ring of gold
VIII give me the girl in blue.

TT is stated that a professional man
l. in Japan may be married and live
comfortably, according to the prevail
ing notions of right living, on $3.50 per
annum. This is done in large apart
ment that may be divided into a small
kitchen, a bathroom, a storeroom, a
study and, last but not least, charm
ing garden. 1t allows for one servant,
and the surroundings are pleasant and
refined. Mats cover the floors, lacquer
ed tables require no table linen, and
paper napkins are used.
Each article in the house is carefully
selected, and some of the objects seen
are of rare beauty, as we'll as OF du-

The custom of taking two baths

No waste is permitted, and every par

Perfect privacy is the great and in

In many other states, there Is great
or number of roads having much steep
err grades than are found in the noun
famous republic of Switzerland. In
Maryland the old stagecoach road or
turnpike running from Washington to
Baltimore makes almost a bee line
regardless of hills or valleys, and the
grades at places are as steep as ~ or
u per cent where by making little de-
tours the road might have been made
perfectly level or by running it up the
hills least abruptly the grade might
have been reduced to or 4 per cent,
as is done in the hilly regions Of many
parts Of this and other countries.
Straight roads are the proper kind tc
have, but in hilly countries their
straightness should always be sacrl-
feed to obtain level surface, so as to
better accommodate the people who
use them.

What Trees Should Be Planted
by the Wayside.
WHY FRUIT TREES ARE USEFUL
Their Yield Would Build Up a Fund
For Maintaining and Improving High
ways-list of Long Lined Shade
Tree. Preferred BY an Expert

The question as to what trees should
be set out TO give shade and charm to
our thoroughfareS is thus answered in
the Good Roads Magazine by l.. &.
Corbett horticulturist to the depart
ment of agriculture;
1t is known in a general way that
chestnut walnut, plum, apple and 9th
er fruit trees are used for this purpose
IN many foreign countries. 1t is in
many cases desirable that the trees
which are To give shade shall also
yield fruit which, when gathered and
sold IN the proper season, will build
up a fund TO be used for the main
tenance of the road, or perhaps to be
devoted TO the special purpose Of fur
ther Identifying the highway and so
aesthetic value of the neighboring land
Within the confines of the United
States so great n variety of conditions
exist which bear ON this question that
IL would seem impossible to designate
a list of trees which will be adapted to
all the road conditions in this country,
unless II is desirable 10 limit the list
10 fruit or TO nut bearing trees. II
this is the case the fruit bearing trees
which will be found best adapted to
highway conditions are the apple and
the pear for some localities.
Apples may be planted in all that
part OF eastern United States north Of
the Caroluas and In the Appalachian
region even south Of that section. West
of these mountains the apple win serve
as far south as the gulf states and
westward 10 the base OF the Rocky
mountains. with perhaps the exception
of the northern part Of Minnesota, the
pakotas and Montana where II would
be well TO substitute other plants for
the apple unless the crab apple were
substituted for the common apple.
Nut bearing trees which are adapted
20 this use in eastern United States
are the hickory. the walnut and the
butternut Tor New England and along
the Appalachian mountains as far
south aS Georgia At this point the
distribution ot these nut trees should
