Mr.. Rogers said the reception to
Mark Twain in England was the great
est ovation any literary man had ever
received. He attended the Pilgrim s
dinner which vas a great affair. Il
felt highly delighted over the way they
treated Twain" he said.
Il heard a great deal of comment on
the other side about the possibility OF
war between American and Japan" Mr..
Rogers added. "They seem to be dis
cussing this topic as something of the
near future"
When informed that John D. Rookie
Teller had been served with a subpoena
to appear before the United States
court in Chicago he said:
'Well, 1 suppose that will let ME out
Well, now that they have subpoenaec
him, what will they do with him
Give him what the boy gave the fiddle.

with a peculiar and amusing accident.
A Hawaiian woman was gracefully
perched on the end of the little wharf
near the launch depot of the Young
Brothers and she was casting net on
a wire ring held by a long piece OF
strong Irvine. She would shoot it
far out and, when she felt tug on
the wine, she would haul it in.
The Waterwitch intent upon getting
out to the Pondo, had no time to ad-
mire the patience and skill of the Ha-
waiian woman on the edge of the little
wharf, nor did those aboard take into
consideration the wonderful powers
possessed by a net and especially a net
in the hands of woman.
Suddenly the pretty launch's engine
made an awful fuss and the launch
wobbled astern like a duck whose on
leg has been caught in a snag. At the
same time the lady on the pier raised
up her voice and invited the gentlemen
to get off her net.
It seems that the net had become
efoul of the propeller Of the launch,
and wound around.
There was nothing to do but dis
engage the contrivance and assure the
lady that she would have a new net
when the launch returned. At this the
lady was comforted and, pending res
titution, baisted bent hairpins and con
tinued to fish.

port during maneuvers and there is
more than the maneuvering to be pre-
pared for.
Private concerns here realize the
strategic situation of Honolulu and the
demands that are bound to be made
on her for coal in the near future and
they are exerting every effort, whether
on their own responsibility with a
view to the benefit of the investment
or on the understanding that the Navy
Department will buy their fuel cannot
be said, to stock Honolulu wit&Nth all
important commodity.
Outside of feet maneuvers, when
coal is needed here for warships it will
be needed urgently and without coal
a fleet would be so much scrap IRON.
Wherever coal piles are wont to rear
their heads along the waterfront there
are immense piles. New coal yards
have been fenced in within the last
few months and yards that were va
cant are now towering with coal.
The Oceanic boats have been taken
off the Australian run and yet there is
apparently no decrease of the ready
coal supply in that direction, there Is
no falling off of the amount delivered
or to be delivered Oil is being used
where coal was burned before, and
still more coal is coming IN than came
in when oil was not being used.
Not long ago, when a Navy man
was asked in regard to the coal or
hand at the Navy Station, he remark
ed that there was plenty of coal in Ho-
nolulu outside of Navy coal and if 1t
could not be bought in the market it
could easily be requisitioned

The Race Question

"The Race Question and Southern
Symposium" has made its initial app
pearance from Atlanta, Ga. This
unique monthly magazine is devoted
exclusively to the negro problem from
the viewpoint of white Southern opin-
ion. 1t contains remarka BILE edito rial
article on "What the Problem Really
Is" discussing the negro's scrime of
crimes" The psychology of the name
less crime is analysed, the conclusion
being that its motive is racial, spring
ing from the almost instructive yearn-
ing of the lower race for amalgamation
with the higher, and that the atavism
of jungle savsgery also figures in it.
False teachings encouraging miscegen-
alton have made the negro an Ish-
maelite because of this crime, the edl-
tor holds, and the doom Of the negro
race in America is foreseen if the crime
continues. This article seems to GO
right to the root of the so-called race
problem, and it explains how greater
segregation and finallseparation Of tina
races will be brought about. There are
special contributions by such promi-
nent men as Gen. Stephen d. Lee
Commander of the United Confederate
Veterans; Prof. w. F. Wilcox, of Cor
nell University; Senator Morgan, of
Alabama; Congressman Hardwick, of
Georgia; Captain Hobson, and others;
reviews of notable books on the race
question: scientific articles along bic
logical, chronological and sociological
lines, and many pages full of short
but significant matter touching every
phase of the question, including rep
resentative press comment. In short,
this monographs magazine is of vital
interest to the student of the great
question to which it is devoted, and it
promises to cover the whole ground.

Saturday, Jan. IL

Washington, Jan. 12.-The senate
listened to debate on the race ques-
ton today in which Tillman was the
principal participant and Patterson, of
Colorado, his opponent. They brought
into striking contrast the ideas of the
South and North. President Roose-
velt's action in the Brownsville matter
was the subject of discussion.
Tillman held that nothing was in
volvcd in it except the race question,
and that the administration was respon-
sible for the growing acute condition of
the race question in the South. The
president, he maintained, had encour-
aged the negro to assert his equality,
and then had wrought vengeance on a
whole battalion for following that en-
couragement. He condemned the pres
ident's action in some respects.
Patterson defended the President $
right to dismiss the troops, but said
there might be some ground to question
its policy. He condemned in strong
terms what he regarded as the radical
position of Tillman, and predicted the
extinction of the Democratic party in
the North would follow continuance
of such tactics.

COOLEST IN YEARS.
Icy Grip Holds MISUNDERSTANDING
of Fuel Increases.

Portland, Jan. 15.-With the mer-
curry steadily falling all day Sunday
and Monday and promising to continue
at low point today, Portland is shiv-
ering from the effects OF the severest
cold snap in many years. Between D
a. m, and 5 p. m. Sunday the tempera-
ture fell degrees virtually without a
break. When the weather bureau
closed Sunday night at the latter hour
the thermometer registered II degrees
above zero and yesterday hovered near
that mark all day. With the fuel
shortage more acute than ever before,
the cold wave could hardly have struck
Portland at more unfortunate time.
What is true of Portland applies to
nearly every city in the Pacific North
west, as the cold snap is general. AT
Vancouver the Columbia river is frozen
over. The Willamette river is full OF
running ice and may become blocked at
any time. Navigation on the Column
bia is at standstill.
Many of the lower river boats have
been taken off their runs and from pres
ent indications nothing will move for
several days.

PACKING TRUST COMPLETE.
All Firms Except One Combined ir
S5oo,ooo,ooO Beef Merger.

Chicago, Jan l4.-That the merger
of the beef packing establishments of
the country, except Schwarzschild q
Sulzberger, which has been predicted
for several years, has come to pass, is
declared in morning paper. None Of
the interests said to be concerned could
be reached for confirmation or denial
of the report.
1t is asserted that the negotiations
are completed and that arrangements
are now in progress by which territory
will be allotted to the several compa-
nies interested in the alleged deal, this
territory to be considered exclusive for
the purposes of trade. The tentative
capitalization is placed at $500, 900 900.
Louis F. Swift, executive head of
Swift q Company, is said to be the ac-
credited head Of the combination, and
J. Odgen Armour is represented as de-
sirous of retiring from active connection
with the packing business as soon as
he can arrange his affairs to that end.
Included in the merger are not only
the Swifts, Armours and Morrises; but
Libby, Mcneil & Libby, the. Anglo
American Provision company, the Oma-
ha Packing company, the Upton Pack
ing company, Hammond company, Con-
tinental Packing company and Hately
Bros. These minor companies are to
pass to the National Packing company,
and Edward Tilden is to be the execu-
tive head of them, according to rumor.

STOP SALTON FLOOD,
President Makes Special Recommend
alton to Congress,

Washington, Jan. IA. President
Roosevelt Saturday sent to congress a
special message on the flooding of the
Imperial valley in Southern California,
in which he severely condemns the
methods of the California Development
company, which owns the irrigation
works, and recommends that the gov
ernment buy out this company and its
subsidiary companies, make n treaty
with Mexico to carry water through the
territory of that republic and construct
great irrigation works to cover the
whole lower valley of the Colorado and
to permanently control that stream.
He estimates the cost at $4,000, 900, all
OF which would be repaid by the settlers
in the same way as under the reclama-
tion act.
He begins by describing the situation
in the Imperial valley, as already pub
lished. He tells how the California
Development company dug canal from
the river into the Salton Sink, passing
partly through Mexican territory.
He then tells how the river broke its
banks and flooded the valley, how the
S uthern Pacific company advanced
money to the development company to
r pair the break, receiving a majority
of stock as security, how the Southern
Pacific closed the break last November,
but how sudden rise a month later
started the water again into the valley,
and says that if the break is not closed
before the spring floods in March all
the property values in the valley, with
5000 to 10000 population, will be
wiped out. He says that ultimately
the channel in the main stream will be
deepened up to and beyond Yuma, de-
stroying the homes and farms there,
the great railroad bridge and the gov
ernment works at Laguna dam. The
Southern Pacific, having already spent
about 50, ,O00, 900 for the protection of
its interests, declines further aid to the
development company, and has joined
the latter company and the settlers in
an appeal to the government to con-
struct permanent works to restrain the
river.
The president says that if the river
is not put back into its natural bed, it
will not only do the further damage al
ready mentioned, but will leave in a
desert condition 700, 900 acres of land
as fertile as the Nile valley, capable of
producing 500 year per acre. This
area is capable of adding at least $780,
600 to the permanent population of
California and Arizona, and much of
the land will be worth $500 to 81 900
an acre, Oh total of $3.50, 900, 900 to
500, 900, 900. He says the Southern
Pacific is now repairing levees to keep
out the high water due next March, but
permanent work is needed. He would
refund no money expended prior to No
vember l 1906, and would leave the
to be paid for work done since
that date for future consideration.
