mer. In its introduction it says:
"We receive MANY inquiries about
West Virginia. its agricultural pro-
auctions, climate, soils and the OPP
%portunities for securing comfortable
homes among our hills. mountains
and valleys. To answer these by let
ter is a tedious task. especially. IL
an attempt be made to give the infor-
nation desired by prospective inves-
tors and h-ome-seekers. To answer
these inquiries more fully and salts
f%actorally the following pages have
been prepared. II may also, in a
measure, serve the purpose OF showing
in a general way, that West Virginia
is rich in her agricultural products as
well as coal, oil. natural gas and tim
Der. This fact has not been so fully
advertised as has been the industrial
enterprises and mineral resources of
the state.
'"There are about 5,155. $50 acres of
virgin land in West Virginia yet to be
brought under cultivation, which is al
most half of the total acreage classed
as farm land, or about 30 per cent of
the total area of the state. Our agri-
cultural productions could be largely
increased and the product find a ready
market in the rapidly growing centers
of population within the state.
'The valleys are becoming yeri-
table beehives OF industry and the
teemipg mass of humanity must be
fed. At present the demand for food
supply Is furnished Is a measure. from
other states. and the probabilities are
that home production will not supply
the demand for years to come. The
development of our natural resources
may be said to have only begun. Mil
lions in money are still pouring into
the state to be used in the develop

For no apparent reaso the water OF
Yellow Brooches Creek. which passes
through the Williams Groce picnic
grounds, and is usually of a dull vel
low color, has changed to a deep red.
Samples have been taken and chem

Several days ago the creeks water
changed it's hue, and assumed a pink
and later a brick color. This coloring
has gradually ~deepened until the wat
er now resembles the troughs of a
s~laughtering house. 1t is feared that
the change in hue is due to some
chemical, and that the lives of the

nous, will be endangered. This creek
enters the Susquehanna river a short
distance below New Cumberland.

COMMITTEE DELVEs IN
DAM CORRESPONDENCE.

The meeting last night of the com.
mittee to investigate the Nuuanu dam
was representative of the parties df,
rectly interested. The Public Works
Department had for It's standard bear.
ers Messrs. Holloway. Rowland and
Smith. and Mr.. Whitehouse was pres
ent in his own behalf and was ready
to meet all comers VINO had statements
detrimental to his work.
The public was represented by the
committee composed of Messrs. Chill
the Senate, and Messrs. Rice, Waiwai,
ole and Hughes of the House.
The session was one of delays and
tedious waits while members of the
committee ran through a lot Of CORE,
spondence which was undoubtedly in
teresting for absolute silence prevailed
while the members read.
In spite of the fact that the plan OF
procedure had been agreed upon Rep
resentative Hughes felt the necessity
for calling to the attention of the chain
the advisability of reading only tht
answers to communications. as there
is such mass of correspondence that
it would be impossible to get through
it all in a week.
When Mr.. Holloway was asked
question by the chair early in the ses>
sion, Representative Hughes suggested
that the examination be conducted ia
due form, whereat the chair remarked
that the information desired was for
his personal use.
And this was the last question put,
Shortly afterward Mr.. Holloway was
TO have copies of his cables
to Mr.. Kellogg ready for the commit.
tee on Tuesday night. Then the wits
nesses were dismissed.

YOKOHAMA
SPECIE BANK
Buys the Site at Corner
of Merchant and
Bethel.

A handsome bank building on the
corner of Merchant and Bethel streets
would be notable addition to Homo
lulu's business architecture. That
eventuality seems assured, for the
Yokohama Specie bank has acquired
that site.
Yesterday the deed was entered for
record whereby Harry J. Johnston
conveys to the Yokohama Specie Bank
the lot mentioned, the consideration
named being s2s. .4o7.o5. The Territory
comes in for s120 stamp duties.
Mr.. Johnston bought the property
from the superintendent of Public
Works at public auction twelve days
ago for $2S,00t 1t contains 1896 square
feet, on Merchant street facing the
police station and on Bethel the post
office. On Bethel street the lot ad-
joins the lately erected building of the
Bishop Trust Co., opposite to which
is the splendid McCandless building.
With the bank edifice Of the big Japa-
nese concern added to the block, Uncle
Sam will be put out of countenance in
the antiquated postohice.

MORMON PRIVILEGE.

Commissioner Hatch yesterday held
George Kekauoha and Amia Liilii of
Koolauloa each in $500 bonds to ap-
pear before the Federal grand jury for
violation of the Edmunds Act. Ke-
kauoha IS the man expelled from the
office of deputy sheriff of Koolauloa
last year on Impeachment by the Board
of Supervisors. Bishop Woolley of the
Mormon church was called yesterday
and questioned about the rule of
secrecy in trials by that church. He
claimed privilege irl that regard. The
Commissioner ruled against admitting
the evidence of confession by the par
ties given by a native Mormon elder,
but District Attorney Breckons will
contest the claimed privilege in court.
