DEATH IN
STORM ON
HELGA'
RUN TO
KAUAI
BRITISH BARKENTINE'S YOUNG
FAvORITE sNATCHED BY GIANT
WAVE LAST FRIDAY MORNING

The British barkentine ntlga, Cap
tain Pearson, arrived at Makaweli, Ka-
uai, at noon on Monday with her flag
at half-mast in token of the loss at sea
at $40 am, Friday, April 10, of her
acting third officer, c. A. stacy, an APP
prentice but IS years of age.
The IL. S. N. Co.'s steamer Milxl-
hala, Captain Gregory was at Waimea
Kauai, when the Helga was sighted
bound for Makawen. Purser w. f..
Miles of the Mikahala later telephoned
Makaweli to ascertain the cause of the
half-masting of the barkentine's ensign.
He then learned the details of the
drowning of Stacy and reported the
facts on the MiNahala's arrival here ait
o'clock this morning.
Early Friday morning last young
Stacy, during a heavy storm, went for
yard to lash an anchor that was threat
ening to work loose from its fastenings
and perhaps pound a hole in the ves-
sci. A great wave curled over the fore
part and when she shed the tons Of
water Stacy was no longer there.
Lines were thrown out and a life
buoy dropped over at once; and the
Helga's crew, under the personal direc-
lion Of the master who was summoned
did everything that could be done to
rescue the boy,
Stacy was a great favorfte with all
hands fore and aft. He came Of good
family and his folks are in Australia.
It was his ambition to became master
OF a vessel and he was an apprentice,
learning the profession. At the time
Of his being washed overheard he was
rated as acting g-third-mate. He had
but two years more to serve before he
would have been given masters

The Helga sailed from Honolulu one
week ago today for Makawen to dis.
charge coal. She came here from New
castle and lay at anchor off the harbol
for orders. While here her master
Captain Pearson, was called to sit OF
the special board OF inquiry to investi

ship Loeb Carve, going ashore at Ka

Several hundred Japanese laborers
went out strike at Aiea plantation last
evening and presented the manage

ances which they asked to be RENE

out into the fell again.
About midnight a telephonemessage
was received at the police station
from Aiea to the effect that 1900 men
were on strike The man at the Aiea
end Of the telephone w're was somT
what excited and the communication
was not as clear as it might have
been Whether the number of strIK-
ers was exaggerated is not known.
Today, at the request or the oBard
of Health, six men were commission
ed as special police officers and this
afternoon they went down 10 Aiea in
the train to enforce certain sanitary
regulations which are said to be the
cause of the trouble.
There has been sickness at Aiea OF
a contagious nature and strict reguia-
tions have to be enforced for the
safety of those living on the pIanta-
ton.
Deputy Sheriff Jarrett stated this
afternoon that beyond the commission
ing of the officers of the Board of
Health there had been no other action
taken by the Honolulu police. If as
sistance was needed at Aiea it could be
sent for and would be supplied at once.
When the fact of the strike was tele-
phoned in last night there was no re-
quest for police aid.

GOVERNOR VET0ES
HOUSE LEPER BILL
GIVES STRONG REASONS WHY
THE MEASURE IN ITS PRESENT
SHAPE SHOULD NOT BE A LAW.

The Governor sent his veto of House
bill No. "a, which provides for the pre-
liminary examination and detention of
persons afflicted with leprosy to the
Legislature this morning. The reasons
given by the Governor for vetoing the
measure were admitted by Senators to
be very sound
One of them was that the bill failed to
provide that any person "alleged" to be
afflicted with the disease could be cited
to appear for examination for commit
ment to the settlement Under the
bill it is provided that citation to
person to appear for medical exa-
mination, can issue only to one actual
Iy having the disease. The governor
stated that he would have no objection
to the passage of bill that would re-
quire a penal summons to be issued to
a person before such person could be
deprived of his or her liberty on ac-
count of having leprosy.
The Senate postponed consideration
of the veto until tomorrow afternoon.
1t is realized that the bill in its present
shape, is worthless 1t is likely that a
measure will be introduced, seeking tc
meet the objections raised by the gov
ernor.

There seems likely to be an attempt
made by certain elements in the legis-
lature to force an extension of the
present session, and to incidentally
force the Board of Health to permit ].
Lor Wallach to treat the lepers. The
feeling that the Board should be forced
to accede to the wishes of the legisla-
ture in this Wallach matter is growing,
and there is the most intense sentiment
in favor of pursuing such a policy.
At the present time the various APP
preparation measures are before the
conference committee. Pressure will, it
is thought, be brought by the House on
it's members in the conference commit
tee to force them to haggle and waste
time over the Various items in order to
sidetrack the appropriation measures.
The items of the Board of Health ap-
proprlations are likely to be the center
of the onslaught. The House members
will, it is now feared, be led through
outside pressure from the House to hold

WANTED A WARRANT
FOR Biting EtLS"
TURNKEY JACK MELANPHY PRAC-
TICEs MEDICINE WITHOUT THE
HEALTH BOARDS PERMIT.

Antoine Pierre, driver of a milk wag-
on, punched an eel in the jaw with his
thumb at the fish market at 1880 o'clock
this morning and asked the Chinese
stall-keeper the price of the squirmer.
The eel itself answered by getting hold
of Pierse's thumb and refusing to let
go. Pierre yelled and swung the eel
round his head He hit couple of
Chinese in the neck, accidentally, and
this added to the confusion. The eeps
head was cut off but the jaw still bit
and Pierre still yelled whereupon the
jaws were pried open.
Then Pierre drove like mad to the
police station, sucking his torn and
bleeding thumb, and appealed to the
man at ire desk to arrest the Chinese
stall-keeper for keeping biting-eels.' -
He got the merriest laugh that has
ever shaken tn none too secure plaster
of the station.
Turnkey Jack Melanphy doctored the
mans torn thumb and fixed it up so
that it is now resting easy. Good
hearted Melanphy was so intent on his
deed of mercy that he forgot that hc
was defying the Board of Health by
curing without a permit from that
august aggregation. When his COM
rades in arms informed him that it
was their sacred duty to inform on him
he nearly tainted
"Carn't a chap heal an eel bite?"
he pleaded.
Remember Wallach," was all the
comfort he got.

down or slash those items in a way
that will cripple the department hope
lessly. If however, the Board Of Health
accedes to the desire OF the legislature
in the wallach affair, then the various
appropriations requested will be
promptly passed.
There has thus far been no public
expression of intention to adopt such
a policy, but underneath the surface the
native members are deeply aroused in
this matter There is also likely to be
a strong support of such action from
the Senate.
At the present time the general
scheme seems to be to hold up the vari-
Gus appropriation measures in order to
force an extension of the session and
incidentally to enact some legislative
measure that will permit wallach to go
to the settlement. The intense feeling
on this matter was indicated in the
resolution adopted yesterday by the

fine trees is little better than a big
stomach with the power of locomo-
ton. Neither his head nor his
heart counts for anything worth
while.
Trees must be cared fol-. They
must be protected from man, beast,
insect and other enemies. During
recent years the pests have appar-
emily increased. and, as a result,
greater care is required. The inn
portance OF the subject is probably
realized by the majority OF people.
but there are some who have not
yet learned to appreciate the neces'
sity ofstimely and proper spraying
II their trees are TO be preserved
from destruction. II the effect of
their neglect fell only upon them
selves they might be allowed to suf-
fer without public concern. but the
community as whole is interested
in the uninterrupted beauty of its
tree-shaded streets. and the indivi-
dual citizen has good reason TO feel
aggrieved when the care he gives
to the fruit and ornamental trees
OH his own lot is to grea, extent
nullified by the carelessness of his
neighbor.
There is no country in the world
in which trees are OF more Use and
pleasure than they are in Texas.
In many places in the State there
are no giants of the forest TO look
upon, and not even the usual small
er growth for shade. There is
every reason why the subject should
be made a special study through
ont the State. Long and slightly
rows on either side of street or road
are the one thing needful in hun
dreds Of Texas communities; and
yet il is .everybody's business aud
nobody's to put them out and look
after them. There are those who
can really appreciate fully the JOY
of living only when they loiter in
the green recesses of the cedar
brake or pine forest, and there are
still few who have brought with
them. even down from Druidical
ancestors. a deep yearning to wor-
ship every grand old oak they are
fortunate enough to behold; but.
unfortunately, the great listless and
sensational majority of the time
have apparently lost all reverence
for the best of Natures gifts to
man. and are quite eager to destroy
even the finest specimen of the
forest in order to see it fall and
hear the crash. Surely, something
should and could be done to in
crease the intelligence, taste and
love of the people for the beautiful
objects that have contributed so
largely to the support, comfort and
