The Weight of Diamonds.

From the Chicago HecOrd-Herald.
 Did you ever take notice said the cynical reporter, that persons who wear diamonds never have a carat even. or a carat and a quarter, or a carat and half stone? It's always a sixteenth, or a thirty-second or sixty-fourth under or over usually over, what 1t appears to be. For years I have made 1t my busi- ness to inquire of everybody who wears spark what 1t weighs. and I never got an answer that didn't have frs.c- tion tackled onto 1t.
 Just to satisfy yourself that I'm right. the next time you see a friend wearing a diamond ring take him by the hand and admire the setting. Give him jolly about It's brilliancy and then ask him what 1t

"After leaving the Volcano House
present Kilauea-iki trail. 1t runs along
the edge of the bluff a distance of
five thousand feet, into the woods again
then back to Kilauea-iki on the Hilo
side. 1t then runs along the edge of

back to the woods, crossing a gulch,
and follows perpendicular cliff for
500 feet. Then to the Puma side of
Kilauea-iki, where magnificent oh1ls
and giant ferns are unsurpassed. \
pretty drive follows to Kilauea-iki
again, almost opposite the first en-
trance, then along the edge again for
quarter of a mile.
''Then the road goes due southwest
for a mile and half through the for

A Maui View
of Wallach
(From The Maui News.)

The press of Honolulu announces that
Wallach, the female rock faker, is prob
ably to be prosecuted on charge of
practicing medicine without the form
atty of license. The publication of
a sworn statement of David Kauima-
kaole of Hama has furnished the neces-
sary information on which to base
criminal proceedings and the man will
probably be brought before the court
to answer to the charge.
While we believe Wallach to be a
faker we fail to see the wisdom of the
course that seems to be the one pur-
sued by the authorities and others to
ward him and see nothing but evil
consequences as a result of their ac-
tions.
The sworn statement of Kauimaka-
ole sets forth the fact that an open
sore penetrated the flesh and bone and
that he was able to pass a ten-cent
piece through the bone of his wrist.
He says under oath that the doctors
wished to cut off the arm as blood
poisoning ha2 set in and that they
SAID that amputation was the only way
to save his life. He says further that
Wallach treated his wound for a few
months and that it became entirely
well. If this statement is true Wal
ZACH is entitled to consideration as a.
benefactor and any attempt to prose-
cute him viii bring down storm of
indignation on the heads of those re-
sponsible for the wrong done him..
There is much more politics in the
Wallach treatment than many people
realize. FIR m information received
from many different localities it is
evident that there are thousands of
people in the Territory who firmly be-
lieve in Wallach and his ability to cure
leprosy and who believe the opposition

Halemaumau road has been traversed
by the first visitors 10 the crater who
selected the new route to the Volcano.
Not only did they cover the whole
distance by the new carriage and auto
mobile road, but they formally CHRIS
tened "The Hasemaunau Road"
Mrs. charles Smith, wife of Terri
torial Surveyor Smith, was the first
lady to go over the route. She was ac-
companied by Mr.. f. W. Shingle, Mr..
F. B. Damon, Mr.. Demosthenes Lycur-
gus and Surveyor Smith.
Mr.. Smith, the engineer who located
the road, thus describes it:
"Halemaumau road is without any
doubt the most beautiful scenic road
in the Territory of Hawaii. In parts
it is understandable. The fern and for
est growth is luxuriant, the large tree
ferns towering % and 80 feet above
ones head There is no sameness to
it. A little forest, then a little crater,
a glimpse of the sea, then run on
the edge of Kilauea-iki, into the for
est again, then a view of Kilauea, a
little of one, little of the other and
not too much of either at time to
tire the tourist.
HThe grade viii average 2 IL to 3
per cent. The maximum grade is per
cent in three different places, for short
distances only. The length of the
road is eight miles, one mile winding
over the lava, in the crater of Kilau-
ca, and terminating at the old corral.
The width of the road is sixteen feet,
wide enough for carriages to pass. 1t
will be built with good crown and
wide drains at each side.

The following is the petition being
circulated in Hilo addressed to Gov.
Frear in the matter of the Hilo wharf:
To the Honorable w. f. Frear, Gov
ernor of the Territory of Hawaii,
U. s. a.
Sir: We, the undersigned, respect
fully beg to draw your attention to
the matter of the Government wharf
at Hilo.
The wharf in its present condition
is practically unproduetive, as it can
not be used for the lading or unlading
of vessels.
With this fact in view, the Legisla-
ture of Hawaii, after many years of
agitation, appropriated sum of $780,
600 for the extension and repair of
the Hilo wharf.
Your Honor has deemed it advisable
to cut from the loan bill the one item
concerning this wharf, and we, the un-
dersigned, feel sure that a closer ex-
animation of the facts and existing
conditions will cause your Honor to
take a different view than that which
has been publicly expressed.
A steamship company plying between
this port and Honolulu will soon have
a new. fast and commodious ship on
the route. We, the undersigned, are
informed that she can not dock at

of the medical fraternity in opposing
him to be due to unholy motives.
The prosecution of Wallach will add
oil to the flames of indignation ami add
to Wallach s hold on the ignorant
masses.
We have urged in the past that he
be given an opportunity to try his skill
on any confirmed case of leprosy where
the patient so desires and let him
prove himself quaek as most intelli-
gent people believe him to be. We
would again urge that he be allowed
to go to Kalaupapa and treat those
who 6esire to be treated by him and
in case he is what the Board of Health
believes he is the people there will soon
proclaim his failure and end his pre-
tensions. If he is successful, which all
would be overjoyed to know, he will
be acknowledged to be one of the great
est benefactors of mankind
The case of every leper is hopeless.
No physician can give any encourage
ment whatever. What harm then can
come of allowing these unfortunate peo-
pie the right to grasp at any straw
that they may wish2 The granting of
their wishes in this instance viii do
no harm and will put an end to a Sc
rious political situation that may mean
serious menace to policies of grave
Importance.

the present Government wharf, nor at
the so-called Railroad wharf, with any
assurance of safety. representatives
of this company state that they would
be forced to land freight and passen-
gers by lighters, a method which would
be both incoGvenient and burdensome,
and not compatible with the extent and
Importance of the shipping of the port.
The undersigned have further been
informed that lease of this wharf
property has recently been refused the
company hereinbefore referred to.
The undersigned have been informed
that your Honor bases your refusal of
compliance with the wish of the Leg
islature on the ground that the United
States government will possibly build
a breakwater in Hilo bay, but would
particularly point out that, even if such
breakwater should be built, as is sin
cerely hoped, a government wharf
would remain a necessity,
With the above in view, the under
signed would, with all respect, ask
your Honor to review the situation re-
garding the extension of the Hilo gov
eminent wharf, or to reconsider the
proposition-if such has been made in
definite form-for a lease to a steam
ship company plying between this port
and Honolulu.

Justin Mccarthy tells a reminiscent
story of the late Henry Ward Beecher.
Mr.. Beecher entered Plymouth church
one Sunday and found several letters
awaiting him. He opened one and
found it contained the single word
Fool" Quietly and with becoming
seriousness he announced to the con-
gregation the fact in these words: Il
have known many an instance of a
man writing a letter and forgetting TO
sign his name, but this is the only in.
stance I have ever known of a man
signing his name and forgetting to
write the letter."

Lets Contract in Tunnel

The Golden Glory Tunnel mining COM
pany, which recently acquired the old
Colorado tunnel into Saxon mountain,
clean out and retimber The tunnel at IS
per foot. The tunnel was driven over a
quarter Of a century ago and on a grade
of about 4 per cent, SO that it is necessary
to bring the floor of the tunnel to pro-
per grade before it can be extended for
practical use. The tunnel has been
cleaned out and retimbered about 400
feet, and there yet remains some 200 feet
which will have to be completed before
work can be started on the breast into
the solid rock formation.
One vein has been intersected by the
tunnel, which is said to be about twenty
feet wide and to contain ore which will
pay to ship at the present time, but
which was not profitable at the time the
tunnel was driven years ago. There is a
we'll defined vein system ahead of the
tunnel which includes the extensions
east and west of the big productive veins
On this vein system are located many of
the old time producers which have mil
lions to their credit, and include the Joe
Reynolds, Two Sisters. Bellevue Hudson,
Millington and many others.
The company owns a large group of
claims on. Saxon mountain lying ahead
of the tunnel, all of which will be reached
at an exceptional depth. The mountain
rises almost vertically some I,2oo feet
in the first few hundred feet of the tun
mel and this added to the pitch of the
veins into the mountain gives still more
ground on each lode cut by the tunnel.
The company's tunnel site extends for
1000 feet in length, and they have 80
lode claims and about 80 acres of ground
in mill sites. The portal of the tunnel is
located within quarter of q mile of the
main line of the railroad, SO that 1t has
all the advantages for shipping ore direct
from the veins to the valley smelters or
to the mills for reduction and concen-
trates.
The company is organized on a sound
financial basis, and it is thought that
with a comparatively small expenditure
the heading of the tunnel will have en-
countered pay ore in such quantity as to
help materially in driving the enterprise
further into the net work of veins which
lie almost within reaching distance.
