Gettinq Round 1t,

A famous mountaineer said of noun tain climbing at dinner in Brooklyn:
 Peaks that seem inaccessible may be climbed by turns and twists. Noun. tain climbing is a question of gettin: around the bad places. Getting around your difficulty-that is the secret of mountain climbing. I.iszt, the great musician. had the ability to get arounl things; hence 1 am sure he'd have made good mountaineer.

if Lion Pulls and Horse puIl.

IT lion and strong horse were to pull In opposite directions, the horse would pull the lion backward with comparative ease. But if the lion were nitched behind the horse and facing in the same direction and were allowed to exert his strength in backing he could easily pull the horse down upon his haunches or drag him across the rinc so much greater is his strength when exerted backward from the hind legs than in forward pulling.-Chambers Journal.

HILO. October 31.-Dr. LUZ r.. Gas
par, the Portuguese doctor who came
to Honolulu in charge of the fmmi-
grants on the Kumeric, and subse-
auently visited Hilo, intends to re-
turn to Hawaii and settle in this city,
so he writes to Mr.. ]. A. NJ. Osorio.
In an interview with DR.. Gaspar,
published in the Heraldo de Madeira,
he speaks very pleasingly of the con-
ditions of the Portuguese in this Ter
ritory, and of the good class of labor
ers. both his eountrymen and the Span
iards. who arrived on both the XII
meric and Heliopolis. OF the circum-
stances of the early Portuguese settlers,
DIR. Gaspar spoke in the highest terms,
and he expressed his gratitude to the
managers of plantations for courtesies
they had shown him. He advises more
of the Portuguese to .emigrate to Ha-
wall when opportunity offers, and will
himself leave Madeira, for Hilo, early
next year. He also spoke of meeting
the Governor of the Portuguese city
who is an uncle of Osorio.
The Portuguese residents of Hilo
are pleased that DR.. Gaspar has de-
cided to settle here, for he is man
of highest. continental university edu-
cation and a great traveller, man for
whom they will have confidence and
respect.
Mr. Osorio is expecting couple OF
his relatives to come here, one jew
eler of twenty-five years of age, the
other boy. "That will make four
teen in my family" said Mr.. Osorit
with a pleased smile, 81 only have

MAHOGANY AND CANE.

HILO, November About eighteen
carpenters came from Honolulu last
week in charge of George Mundon.
They were rushed off to Puma where
they are engaged in the construction
of quarters for loggers, of whom a
large number are shortly expected from
Kauai to work in the forests of the
Puma Sugar Company. The land will
be cleared to furnish ohia ties for the
Hawaii Mahogany Company's big con-
tract and, as soon as cleared, it will
be planted in cane, thus increasing the
area for the Puma Sugar Company to
be ground at the Olaa mill.

CURIOUS CAUSE
FOR A MURDER
Because Reproached
for the Bedbugs
Present.

HTLO. NovembeF There have
been murders for curious causes which
are recorded in the big black book
of crime but it is doubtful if any more
curious event took place than the muir
der of japanese named Murakami at
Ookala last Friday.
Bedbugs formed what criminologists
call "the motive.''
Murakami was killed by his aihane
Yoshimura, at o'clock, in the morn
ing by a stab over the heart with a
pocket knife, stab which completely
severed the aorta, and it all arose be-
cause Yoshimura said that there were
bedbugs in the house and Murakami,
who had charge of the place, said that
there were mott
The two men had been friends for
years, according to the story told by
the accused and had lived together
at Ookala, both working on the plan
tation. On Friday morning Yoshimura
complained about the peculiar ferocity
of the particular breed of Cimex lee
tularius which happened to make the
cabin its stamping ground. Murakami
replied with an insult and advanced
in threatening attitude upon which
Yoshimura pulled out a pocket knife
and stabbed his friend in the heart.
at Castle Maby, waiting for the grand
1t was all very simple, Murakami died
in few minutes.
The murderer hid in the gulch until
the evening when he came out to see if
Murakami was badly hurt. He was,
of course, arrested at once.
Judge Richard committed him for
trial on Saturday and the man is now
at Castle Maby, waiting for the grand
jury.

TAPIOCA AS A
NEW INDUSTRY
]. w. COnradt of HilO Has Been
Experimenting for Some
Time.

HILO, October 3l.-Another new IN
dustry viii begin on the Island of Ha-
wall next year, when the district of
Hamakua will have the honor of start
ing small factory for the manufae-
ture of tapioea starch, the pioneer in
the enterprise being J. W. Conradt of
Hilo.
For more than two years Mr.. Con-
radt has been quietly collecting tapi-
oca seed from all the islands of the
Territory, getting some from far away
Kauai. He has kept the best and
resown it until he had enough to plant
on three acres of land, one of which
is close to Hilo, the other two acres
of the growing crop being at Kalawa,
near Papaikou, where the mill will be
erected.
The plants grow to height of feet,
the roots averaging from 10 to 20
inches long and to 6 inches in dia-
meter In January the construction
of the little mill, with a capacity of
one ton of tapioca day, win begin,
and by March it is expected to be IN
operation and grinding the root.
The machinery is simple, consisting
of a crater, mixer where the ground
root is cleaned in water. There the
powder settles and the water passes
off leaving the tapioca to be carried
to centrifugal for drying.
The tapioca starch has flavor SUI
perior to that of corn starch and 1t
can be used for domestic culinary pur-
poses as well as for the laundry. 1t
is claimed, from experiments made
with small lots that have already been
| manufactured here, that one-half a
| pound of the tapioca product is equal
to one pound of the corn starch. En-
| enlargement has been received from
| the local trade as to the disposal OF
the crop and Mr.. Conradt feels con-
fdent of success in his venture.
