Last evening the Wela Ka Moi roll
ers put it all over the University club
who will hereafter be known as the
AlOhas.
The w. x. n. team won every game
and came out to the good with PAP pins.
The games We're played as follows:
w K. ~ $50, L. c., Gil; w. K. 667,
U. c. $50; w. X. n. 67S, U. c. $50;
total w. K. n. POPS, U. c. 1888
The Alohas are composed of old tim
ers who are some what out of practice
but Captain BIZ Williamson claims
that Rabbit and Murray are over
weight and that it will take some time
to get them into shape. When they
do get going the other teams must look
to their laurels.
The next game will be rolled on Mon
day evening next when the Alohas
meet the Olohus.

else behind the steering wheel.
And then there's one of our women
clients" went on Lilly, who is in
mortal dread of a horse jumping into
her car and dashing out her brains;
since reading of such an incident she
has made life burden to her chauf-
feur. She believes a horse is wild
beast of prey racing around seeking
motorists to revenge his tribe upon.
Some forget to enjoy ride, fear
ing arrest for speeding, while another
man who thinks nothing of fine now
and then refuses to leave the city
streets for country roads which all, in
his opinion, lead down steep mountain
sides or end abruptly over yawning
ravines into which unwary travellers
plunge with fatal results. Every turn
of the road suggests tragedy"
Slippery pavements are the bug

strain, while to others they merely
add zest to motoring progress. To go

though frequently it has been a cricket

EQUAL TO THE OCCASION.
This Servant Girl Was Evidently
Person of Resource.

AS a source of humor the Irish SER
want girl has long since fallen from
her high estate, a result probably due
to the better class of young women
from the Emerald Isle who come here
annually to help confuse the eternal
servant girl question" But now and
again one of the old, naively ignorant
sort turns up in New York house
hold, as was demonstrated the other
day to caller at a house on the West
Side.
The girl who responded to the bell
was asked if her mistress was at
home. To this inquiry she surprised
the caller by putting her arms behind
her back and replying in rich
brogue, as she thrust her face toward
the caller: Put tn tickets in me

UTILIZING PARIS SEWAGE.
Waste Flow from Metropolis Turned
to Excellent Account.

A German contemporary, in dis
cussing methods of utilizing sewage
for agriculture, gives considerable
space to Berlins successful enter
prise, already dealt with in these col
umns, and then speaks of the Paris
venture, making feature of the sew
age farm at Acheres.
The inhabitants of Paris number
over 100000, and the total flow of
sewage is stated to average Tin our
measurement 17660,000 cubuc feet
per diem. This is collected in inter-
cepting sewers, which convey it by
gravitation down to Clichy, where it
is raised 118 feet by powerful pumps
and distributed by gravitation
through the farm. The pumping
engines are capable of indicating
5000 horsepower. 1t is stated that
experience shows that one acre of
suitable soil can take 1880 cubic
feet of sewage daily, so that an area
of about 1920 acres would be need
ed to deal with the whole of the dis
charge of the Paris sewers.
A very high degree of publication
is reached, the effiuent containing
fewer bacteria per cubic centimeter
than most uncontaminated streams.
The land also has been greatly in
creased in value, being now worth
five times as much as it was before
being made receptacle for the
sewage. AS a natural consequence,
neighboring land owners who orig
inally had fiercely opposed the es-
tablishment of a sewage farm in
their midst are now demanding to
have the sewage applied to their own
farms.
The farm at Acheres is 2,471 acres
in extent and is under the control of
a civil engineer, who in the main
raises beet root, though his crop will
admit of much less sewage being
passed on to the land than certain
others. The main conveying the
sewage from the pumping station is
4 inches in diameter, while a sec
ondary system of pipes ranging from
| 81 to Is inches in diameter serves
as feeders to the irrigation trenches,
into which the sewage passes
through 12-inch valves. The ground
is laid out and the irrigating
trenches are so arranged that the
only service needed in regulating the
flow is the opening and closing of
the regulation valves just men
| toned.
The crop which stands the most
sewage is grass, meadow, it is
stated, being uninjured by a flow
of 2,430,00O cubic feet per acre per
year; lucerne can take 100000 GU
bic feet per annum, artichokes $685.
900; flowers, parsley, sorrel, etc.,
$4,000 cubic feet; leeks, cabbages
and celery, $4,000, while beet roots,
carrots and beets will take only 1877
600, and potatoes, asparagus and
peas but 141, 900 cubic feet per acre
| per year.

fraud and in disappearing
Articles Sold.

Des Moines, Observation-Disclosures,
Roebuck & Co. of Chicago have been
charged with using the mails to de-
fraud. The indictment is on three
counts. 1t is alleged that the COM
pany misrepresented articles in its
catalogues sent through the mails.
The first count charges that ON June
Is, 1907, the company devised a
scheme to obtain money by false pre-
lenses from DR.. C. F. Spring of Des
Moines by selling him white lead that
Sears-Roebuck claim to have made.
The indictment alleges it was made
by others. A second count is on a
ring bought by R. H. Miles, and
the third count is the sending of an
other ring, alleged to have been mis-
represented, through the mails.

The late Dr. Eliphalet Wright OF

life ushered 5000 babies into the
world. This is believed to be the rec

CDR Wright" said resident of Lee,
"had two passions-children and char

He held that in both grace and deli
cacy were essential. He held that
charity which was not graceful and
clean was bound to fail, bringing to
the donor scorn instead of gratitude.
Thus, he once said in a Sunday
school address, a rich landlord, while
making the round of his tenants cot
tages collecting rents, met a little
girl whose beauty much impressed
him.
in the shabby front room of the
cottage the landlord talked for a while
with the little girl, and as he rose to
go, an unwonted feeling of kindness
warmed his heart.
"'Let me see,' he said, fishing in his
pockets-'let me see if l haven't some

he ended, what will you do with

PRODUCTIVE POWER OF
WESTERN CANADA SOIL
Winnipeg Correspondence.

Winnipeg Correspondence.
There has never been any who have
doubted the productiveness of the soil
of Western Canada, but there are
sometimes found those who question
the fact of it's superiority. During the
past season it has been shown that
in grain raising qualities it possessed
the very best. The late spring pre-
vented grain being sown in many
cases before the middle of May. Yet,
large percentage of that sown at that
time produced excellent yields. Had it
not been for the frost early in August,
which visited most of the north half
of the continent, there would have
been a magnificent yield in every dis
trict in Western Canada. Throughout
the Southern Alberta district where
about 100000 acres was sown to win
ter wheat the yield will be enormously
large. There are vast tracts of valu-
able grain growing land in, Western
Canada that are available for home
steads, the Canadian Government CIV
ing 160 acres free, and entry may be
made by proxy, by any near relative,
thus saving considerable cost to the
American who may have entry made
in this way. Any Canadian Govern
ment Agent will give you the partic-
| ulars.

ceived the following letter from Craik,
