Sheriff, County of Oahu
"Honolulu. November 10. 1907.

Mr.. c. P. Iaukea. Sheriff County or
Honolulu, Oahu
Sir: | am in receipt of your letter
of November Is stating that on
Sunday afternoon my automobile was
being driven on the wrong side OF
the Waikiki road, to wit: on the left
hand side, contrary to the rule of the
road; also that all vehicles must be
driven on the right-hand side of each
road throughout the city.
My understanding of the rule of
the road is; Whenever any persons
shall meet each other on any bridge
road or other highway travelling in
carriages, wagons, carts or other We
hicles, each person so meeting shall
seasonably turn his horse or other
vehicle to the right of the middle OF
the Travelled part of such road or
bridge when practicable so that the
respective carriages, or other vehicles
aforesaid may pass each other with
out interference Section 1926 Re-
vised Laws.
In all respects on the occasion in
question | followed the law of the
road as defined in the foregoing sec
ton, and l do not consider that your
construction of said law that all We
hicles must be driven on the right
hand side of each road at all times, is
correct, but that it is only in passing
that vehicles must take the right
hand side.
Furthermore, on the afternoon in
question your officer established him
self at point on the Waikiki road
where all vehicles travel on the ma
kai side for the reason that the maui
ka side OF the road is rough and I'M
even and there is plenty of room on
the makai side for vehicles to pass
each other Had he established him
self at point little further towards
Waikiki, where the road is good on
both sides, he probably would not
have had the opportunity of stopping
so many people.
AT the time that he motioned to me
10 go 10 the rlght-hand side of the
road, there were no vehicles of any
natu'e within 200 yards of me either
way. The last vehicle in front of me
was -'s, who had also taken
the same side of the road | had, and
for the same reason, that the mauka
side is rough, uneven and dangerous
to aXleS and tires
Il have taken some pride in the fact
that in all respects in driving my
automobile | have endeavored to OBJ
serve the rights of others on the pub
lie highway and | must say that 1
do not take you letter in good part.
Yours truly.

DUKE CANNOT
MARRY HIS GIRL
SPANISH NOBLEMAN ASSURES
MRS. TOWNSEND or DEEP AT.
FICTION BUT NEEDS MONEY.

! WASHINGTON NOV 2.-The an
nouncement that Mrs Townsend and
Miss Townsend have delayed their re-
turn to Washington until late in the
season is taken to mean that the re-
ported engagement between Miss
Townsend and the Duke de Alba, Of
| Spain. is off. 1t is declared in the
event Of their marriage Mrs. Town
send would have returned here to have
the ceremony take place at her pala-
tial home on Massachusetts ayenue.
This romance, in which the hero is
a nephew of the former Empress Eu-
genie, of France, and the head of one
of the oldest houses of the Spanish
nobility, and the heroine the hand
soonest and richest girl in Washing
ton society, began two years ago in
/ Paris, where the duke was presented
to Mrs Townsend and her daughter
at the Spanish embassy.
The Spanish nobleman at once paid
court to Miss Townsend, who received
! his attentions with favor, but no en-
gagement came about or was even ru-
mored until the return of the Town
sends to- Washington. Senior Riano,
| who spent five or six years in America
as secretary of the Spanish legation,
assured his countryman of the social
and financial standing of Miss Town
send.
On their return to Washington, af-
ter his visit, the duke is said to have
sent his agent to America to confirm
Senior Ramos report.
He reported that the American wi
dow's income never exceeded $3.50 900
a year, and Furthermore, that w. L.
Scott, her father, had tied up his es-
tate so that it could not be dissipated
by his descendants of the present gem
Grafton.
The Duke de Alba protested the
deepest devotion to Miss Townsend,
but pathetically assured the mother
that an annual income of 100000 was
the least that he could accept for his
title and encumbered estates.
Some persons believe Mrs. Town
send may yet sacrifice four-tifths of
her income to secure her daughter one
of the best titles now on the matrimo-
NAL market.

MRs.NELLIE Markham

A nervous irritable woman, often on
the verge of Mysteries, is a source of
misery to everyone who comes under
her influence, and unhappy and mis-
cradle herself.
Such women not only drive hus-
bands from home but are wholly unfit
to govern children.
The ills of women act like a fire
brand upon the nerves, consequently
seven-tenths of the nervous prosUra-
ton, nervous dependency, h e
blues, sleePlessness, and nervous
irritability of women arise from some
organic arrangement.
Do you experience fits ofdepression
with restlessness alternating with ex-
treme irritability 4? Do you suffer
from pains in the abdominal region,
baclache, bearing down pains, nerVous
dyspepsia, sleeplessness, and almost
continually cross and snappy? If so,
your nerves are in a shattered con-
dition and you are threatened with
nervous prostration.
Proof is monumental that nothing
in the world is better for nervous
troubles of women than Lydia r.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound,
made from native roots and herbs.
Thousands and thousands OF women
can testify to this fact,

Tho Modern Process Much Like ths
Old Time Method.

Our great grandmothcrs used to
make their own soap by the following
process: \ barrel was raised OF tl'
ground sufficiently high to allow Il t'j
to be placed under it, and the bottom
of the barrel was perforated with small
holes. It was then filed with wood
ashes, and now and then bucket Of
water was thrown on them, which
found its way into the tub beneath. As
the water pcrcolated through the ash
es it dissolved the potash and soda
which are always found i'm the ashes
of plants, and thus n solution was at
taincd which was put into an iron boil
or with a quantity of grease fat and
the miXture boiled for an hour or
longer. Salt was then added. and as
the mixture cooled n solid layer Of
curd soap solidifcd on the top of the
water
The modern process of soap making
is practically identical, only instead of
ashes weak solution of caustic soda
or lyc Is used. Fats and oils are boil
cd along with this lye. and the mix
ture Is kept constantly agitated. As
the temperature increases stronger lye
is used until the operation is complct-
ed. Salt is then added, and as soap
is insOlublc in salt water 1t rises to
the top of the soda liquor. The lye Is
then run off and n fresh solution Of
soda added, after which the soap is
again boiled. The boilers are then
left for several hours to allow impuri
ties to settle, and the soap is finally
run Off into molds and cut into bars.
Fancy soaps are generally made by
remelting ordinary soap and adding
coloring matter and perfumes.
Glycerin is an important byproduct
of soap making Mostly all fats con-
sist of glyccrin and stearic acid. When
they are boiled with soda the soda ex-
tracts the stearic acid from the glycer-
in, and the latter Is run off with the
soda liquor when the first boiling is
completed but it is subsequently re-
covered by distillation. - Minneapolis
