A LIVE INSPECTOR.

Says the Maui News editorially:
inspector of Schools James c. Davis
has put into effect a new rule, which
requires each teacher to write pro-
gram of work to be done during the
whole day and then report of the
work for each day after the work has
been performed.
AT first thought this may seem too
much work on the teachers, who are
now working for greatly reduced sail
aries. but on reflection it will appear
to an experienced teacher that the plan
will be of great help to all of the
teachers who have not had years of ex-
perience and Will not be found much OF
an additional burden to those who are
experienced.
school inspecting on Maui has al
ways been looked upon by experienced
teachers as farce, and IL Mr.. Davis
proves himself of worth to the schools,
which we believe he will, he will have
accomplished more than was done in
the past, unless we exclude the work
of his immediate predecessor, with
whose work we are not familiar
FILLER RESIGNS.
Superintendent r. W. Filler of the
Kahului Railroad Company has tender
ed his resignation and it has been ac-
cepted. Mr.. Filler has had charge of
the Kahului Railroad for eight years. -
the Maui News says, land has in.
creased the value of the company from
sixty thousand dollars to half mil
lion, while the amount of shipping on
the road has increased at even a more
rapid rate. The success of the COM
pany is very largely due to his init
mate knowledge of every branch of the
company and his untiring energy and
foresight.
Mr.. Filler has been in the railroad
ing business for many years and has
worked his way up the ladder. He
has many advantages over many men
who hold similar positions. He is an
expert bookkeeper, a locomotive en-
gineer, and holds a pilots license

FARMERS FIERCE FIGHT
WITH HUGE BALD EAGLE
Bird Had Been Stealing His Sheep
His Face end Hands Were Horribly
Torn ana mut!a.ed by Eagles
Ts!crs.

P'ttslield. Mass. Dec. 1.-James
Rolg"r, Il Wcll-known resident of Peru
twelve miles east Of this city, had the
light of his life the other day with an
immense bald eagle, which invaded ms
barnyard and made OFF with Il sheep.
BolSer's attention was attracted by
the bleating Of the victim, and he ran
out with his gun. He was in time TO
get good shot at the bird. breaking
one of its wings. AS it fell to the
ground, Bo!Ser attacked it with a clue,
but found himself in the worst row ne
ever experienced.
The eagle fought viciously with beak
and talons and wing, and Bolger was
badly punished, his face and hands be-
ing torn and his clothing ripped into
rags. He finally landed a blow on the
eagles head which stunned it, and
made it possible for him to dispatch it.
The eagle was brought to this city,
and no one here has ever seen so large
and fine specimen. 1t measures eight
feet across the outspread wings.
Bolger will have it mounted, and will
probably present it to the city's
of art and natural history.
