The people Of Lyman county some

BIG BRIDGE
Railroad Engineers Are Not TrifIing
With Missouri.

The indications now appear to be
that nothing further in the way OF
active operations will be attempted on
the big railway bridge at Pierre until
after the .une rise. If that plan is
carried out 1t will delay work on the
structure until some time in the win
ter, and delay the crossing of through
trains.
Before their first actual experience
with the Big Muddy the bridge people
thought they could hold false work in
the stream at any stage Of water,
but with one experience a few days
ago with a three-foot rise from local
rains when they lost their false work
and had a narrow shave on n span
of the steel, they are not quite 50 e
tain as TO what liberties they car take
with the big stream, and fear that the
June rise will be higher than the water
they had to contend with so far this
spring.

MRS.. D ABBOTT

Women for the most part spend
their lives at home, and 1t is these
women who are willing and ambitious
that their homes shall be kept neat
and pretty, their children well dressed
and tidy, who do their own cooking,
sweeping, busting and often washing,
ironing and sewing for the entire
family, who call for our sympathy.
Truly the work Of such a woman
Is never DONE and is it any wonder
that she breaks down at the end of q
few years. the back begins to ache,
there is a displacement, Inflammation
or liberation of the abdominal organs,
. female weakness is brought on, and
the struggle OF that wife and mother
TO continue her duties is pitiful.
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, made from native roots
and herbs, is the exact medicine a
woman needs whose strength is over
taxed. 1t keeps the feminine organs
In a strong and healthy condition.
In preparing for childbirth and re-
cuperating therefrom it is most eff
cient. 1t carries a woman safely
through the change of life and in
making her strong and well assists
her to be a good wife and mother.
Mrs, Sadie Abbott, of Jeanette,
Pa. writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham-
81 suffered severely with pain every
month and also a pain in my left side. My
doctor prescribed for me but did me no
good; a friend advised Lydia f. Pinkham's

regard ia my condition. l followed your
advice and am a perfectly well woman. The

CRAZY MAN STEALS BOY.
Fights TO Keep Child When Caught
by Citizens.

While the little son OF Mr. and Mrs.
J.. N. Cook, a barber, vas playing in
front Of his home at Mitchell a
stranger going by picked the boy up
in his arms and started on a run
down the alley. The mother did not
miss her boy until apprised OF the
kidnapping a few moments later by
one OF the neighbors.
The mother became frantic and
started in pursuit, calling for the as
sistance OF people she met on the
street, and In a short time a dozen
were in hot pursuit OF the kidnaDper.
He was traced several blocks, and
finally was located in the hayioft OF
a barn, where he had taken the boy
and was tearing the clothes from his
body.
A hard fight was had before the
citizens got possession Of the boy.
The k%1dnapper was guarded in the
barn until Sheriff Cook arrived on the
scene, when the fellow yielded to ar
rest and was placed in Jail, followed
by an angry crowd OF people who
threatened to mob the prisoner.
It was afterward discovered that
the kidnapper's name is Frank Mar
tin, and that he is partially insane.
He attempted to differ no excuse for
committing the act.

SPECIE BANK

a handsome bank building on the
corner of Merchant and Bethel streets
would be IA notable addition to Homo

eventuality seems assured, for the
Yokohama Specie bank has acquired

Yesterday the deed was entered for

conveys to the Yokohama Specie Bank
the lot mentioned, the consideration
named being 500, 407.05. The Territory
comes in for $500 stamp duties.
Mr.. Johnston bought the property
from the superintendent of Public
Works at public auction twelve days
ago for s2S,001. 1t contains 1885 square
feet, on Merchant street facing the
police station and on Bethel the post

THE HOUSE.

At yesterdays session of the House
Representative Hughes resolution ac-
knowledging and accepting the $4,000
appropriated by Congress to defray the
expenses of Hawaii's Legislature gavs
rise to an extended debate. Represen-
tative Kaniho, ably seconded by Mr..
Rice, maintained that the Legislature
ought to accept, from motives of af-
lection for their mother country, if for
no other reason, Uncle Sam s benefi-
cence, and spare the local treasury
any strain which might arise from
claims for remuneration for service rem
dered during a possible extra session.
Representative Hughes, who also ably
supported the resolution, argued that
the time had come to show the people
of Hawaii that their trust had not
been misplaced. He stated that the
electors of the Territory had proved
that they knew how to deal with
representatives who had abused their
confidence by consigning the delinquents
to the "limbo of derelict politicians.
Mr.. Kaleiopu endeavored without sue
cess to have the resolution amended.
Mr.. Moanauli then entered the de-
bate, stoutly opposing the measure. In
a speech of some length he claimed
that if the members of the Legislature
accepted the money from Congress they
would occupy the plane of contract
laborers. He declared that the laborer
was worthy of his hire, and that in
the event of an extra session legisla-
tors need feel no shame in accepting
compensation for extra services, as the
people had shown by the selection of
their representatives their confidence
that the public business would be CON
Quoted with as little loss of time as
possible, and that if a prolonged SEES
sion became necessary, the fact would
be accepted by the people as unavoid-
able.
After some further debate involving
Representatives Mahoe and Sheldon,
who supported Mr.. Moanauli, Repre-
sentative Pail moved the previous ques-
tion. By vote of 10 to 8 (Mr. Ka

THE COMMISSION
PAID ON LUMBER

w. Pfotenhauer, an officer OF H.
Hackfeld & Co., Ltd. testified in the
lumber trust investigation on Friday
that the corporation just named got
21-2 per cent. commission on all the
lumber imported from Puget Sound
ports by the three defendants. This
was as agent for Pope & Talbot, the
lumber exporters. Asked by Mr..
Breckons IL this commission was paid
without regard to whether or not the
lumber was brought by vessels owned
or controlled by ii. Hackfeld & Co.,
he said the matter had nothing to do
with the vessels.
There being misunderstanding by
the witness on question relating to
importations in vessels owned or con-
trolled by either of the defendants, Mr.
Breckons put 1t In concretely illustra-
tive form by asking about lumber i'm
ported by Levers a. Cooke In the
schooner Mary e. Foster, owned and
controlled by that firm. Would the
commission be charged on such
cargo?
Mr.. Pfotenhauer refused to answer
and the question was going to be re-
ferred to Judge Dole as to whether or
not 1t must be answered. Counsel for
defendants, however, advised the wit
ness to answer and he said the COM
mission was paid on such lumber. II.
Hackfeld & Co. looked to the three de-
PENDANTS to pay the commission on all
Pope & Talbot shipments, otherwise
there would be no agency. The de-
PENDANTS We're friends of Ii. Hackfeld
& Co.
Richard Ivers of w. G.. Irwin g. Co.,
Ltd, described the steam and sailing
vessels running between here and the
Sound. There was no sailing vessel on
the route other than those controlled
by these three defendants. Practical
ly the only steamers were those of the
American Hawaiian Steamship Co..
the only exception being an occasional
boat of the Matson line.
Steamers and sailing vessels from
Coast ports consigned to w. G. Irwin
& Co., the witness said, made no diff
ference in rates as to amount of
freight.
Mr.. Stanley asked If 1t was not a
fact that there was no more difference
between the methods in which these
three firms ran their business, In the
dealings w. G. Irwin & Co. had with
them. than there would be in dealings
with any other firms in Honolulu en-
gagged In any other kinds of merchan-
disc, such as -four or hardware.
The Government objected to the
question as immaterial and not proper
cross-examination, and asked for a
reference to the Judge because If that
line Of examination were allowed 1t
would take up a month of time.
The hearing was then adjourned un-
til $3.50 Monday morning.
