A good illustration of the way in
which colored men of the present day
are making their mark in the world is
afforded in the career of w. Sidney
Pittman, an architect of much promi.
nence at the national capital. The
United States government accepted his
design, offered in competition. for the
negro building at the Jamestown Ex-
position. This is the first time that a
colored mans plans have been ac-
cepted by the government. Mr.. Pitt
mans parents were formerly slaves.
He was educated at the public schools
in Montgomery, Ala, at Tuskeegee In
stitute and at the Drexel Institute in
Philadelphia, having been aided to
take a course in architecture at the
latter by Booker T. Washington. After
graduation from the Drexel Mr.. Pitt
man took charge of the department of
architecture at Tuskeegee, where build
ings costing $25O,O0 We're erected after
his plans.

A SILLY SAYING.

cit is common but silly opin-
ion. prevailing among GER
tain class of people that the
worse a remedy tastes, smells or
hurts, the more eficacious it is.
SO says a well-known English
physician. He further adds
&" For example, let US consider
cod liver oil. As it is extracted
from the fish this oil is so offen-
sive to the taste and smell that
many cannot use it at all, nc
matter how badly they need it.
Yet cod liver oil is one of the
most valuable drugs in the world
and it Is the greatest pity that
we, have not thus far been able
to free it from those peculiari-
ties which so seriously interfere
with its usefulness" This was
written years ago; the work of
civilizing and redeeming it has
since been triumphantly accom-
plished; and as a leading in
gredient in the remedy called
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
the oil retains all its wonderful
curative properties with 40 bad
smell or taste whatever. 1t is
palatable as honey and contains
all the nutritive and curative
properties of Pure Cod Liver
Oil, extracted by us from fresh
cod ivers, combined with the
Compound Syrup of Hypophos-
phites and Extracts of Malt and
Wild Cherry: creating a medi-
cine of unequaled power for the
diseases most prevalent and IA
tai among men, women and chill
dren. There is no other remedy
to compare with it. It increa.
ses the digestive power of the
stomach and in Blood Impuri-
ties, Throat and Lung Troubles,
Nervous Dyspepsia and Scrofu-
lous Affections it gives quick
and certain relief and cure. Dir.
G. c. Shannon, of Canada, saws:

ISLAND HORTICULTURE.

Vol. I. of Gerrit Wilder's book on
the Fruits of the Hawaiian Islands
has awakened a great deal of interest
and is having a good sale at the local
book shops. By the last mail Mr. Will
der received a communication from a
New York publisher who wished to
open negotiations for the placing of
the book before the Eastern public.
Vol. H., the plates for which are now
in the hands of the Gazette Co, will
be out about the last part of the year
Mr.. Wilder is a horticultural enthu-
siast, and his own garden at Punahou
is a proof of his skill. His plant nur-
sery contains many fine young fruit
trees, grated from good stock, and al
though Mr.. Wilder charges a good
price for them, one is certain of get
ting a tree that is worth ones while to
cultivate carefully.

A traveller arrived late one night at
the Palace Hotel in Tin Can, and, be-
ing very tired, he ordered his dinner
10 be served in his room. AS he was
peacefully eating his bear steak, he
heard loud noise downstairs, a bang,
an oath, two quick crashes, and then
a bullet shot up through the floor and
wounded the traveller in the leg. Put
ting down his knife and fork, he rose
and began to hop about the room with
loud groans. Suddenly the landlord
burst in on him. "Whar did that thar
bullet go top the landlord exclaimed,
laughing. oh, air We hurt stranger?

NO NEW DIFFICULTIES
IN KAPPA LAND DEAL

Governor Frear says that no new
difficulties in regard to the settlement
of the Kappa lands have arisen. The
idea that there had seems to have
arisen from the fact that Col. Spald-
ing, the owner of Kealia plantation,
is to come here this week to confer
with the Governor about the matter.
But the appointment for Col. Spalding
to confer with the Governor tomorrow
was made some time ago and was an
nounced by Governor Frear through
the Advertiser, at the time.
Governor Frear when on his visit
to Kauai some weeks ago went all
over the Kappa lands, studying the
subject on the ground. The Terrific
rial Surveyor is now making surveys
looking to the dividing up of the land
into homesteads. But the decision as
to how the government lands of Ka-
paa are to be divided up and whether
all of them or only a part of them
are to be divided has not yet beer
decided.

HEADS MAY VERY SOON
DROP IN THE BASKET

The work of investigating the Nu-
uanu dam matter goes on apace at
the Capitol. Governor Frear was not
able to give much time to it yester-
day, being engaged on other things.
But Secretary Mott-Smith is devoting
a good deal of time to it. He has
gone over the documents in the case
very thoroughly and has taken the
statements of the contractor, L. NJ.
Whitehouse. He will probably take the
statements of Superintendent of Pub
lie Works Holloway shortly, and per-
haps of others connected with the
work.
Governor Frear said yesterday that
he had not yet devoted much time to
this matter, as he was devoting his
time to other matters. but he was
now nearly up with other work and
he would soon be able to devote more
time to the Nuuanu dam matter.
There is a growing feeling among
those who are in touch with the Nu-
uanu dam matter that there will be
head or heads dropping in the bas-
ket very shortly.

DRY is so bad.
1.-THE men are so worked up over the
matter that it is hard to get any de-
cent work out of them. They all have
at least two months pay coming to
them and expected to get away from
the ship for short time at this, the
first really American port they have
seen for three years, but on account
of Captain Peters whim they are held
up.
You need not be in the least afraid
that the ships in the Big Four as
we call them, the Pennsylvania, Mary
land, Colorado and West Virginia, will
stop here and keep their men on board
ship all the time. Those ships have
captains with little backbone and a
little consideration for their men,"
The monthly payroll of the Raleigh
amounts to about $4,000, from which
some notion of what is being kept
from the merchants of this city can be
understood. The San Francisco mer-
chants will reap the reward of the
action of the captain of the Raleigh.

Jack Atkinson s plan for an automo-
bile road down to Halemaumau, may
be considerably changed. Considera-
tion is now being given to the proposed
changes.
As Atkinson planned it, the road was
to leave the main road from the Vol
eano House to Kau, at point on the
Kau side of the crater of Kilauea, and
continuing down or that side reach the
floor of the crater at a point almost
directly opposite where the present
trail into the crater from the Volcano
House reaches it.
The new plan is to leave the main
Volcano road not far from the Volcano
House and following in general way
the trail to Kilauea-iki, keeping on
the Hilo side of the crater, around
Kilauea-iki, and makai OF the crater,
following the ancient Hilo-Kau trail
and entering the floor of the crater at
about the same point where Atkinson
planned should be done, but from the
opposite direction.
1t is believed that a better grade
and less difficult location will be
found. Otherwise, about the only diff
ference will be that by Atkinson s plan
the new road will be loSa:ed on Gov
eminent land and by the other plan
it will be located on Bishop Estate
property.
By the Kinau today Territorial Sur
veyor Wall will send surveyor to
make reconnaissance of the two routes
and report on their relative advantages.
On the same steamer High Sheriff Hen
ry will 60 up to plan the necessary
arrangements for sheltering, feeding
and guarding the eonvicts whom it is
proposed to send up to do the work.
cit is no slight matter to take con,
victs up there for this work." said
High Sheriff Henry yesterday. 81 am
going up to see what shelter will have
to be provided, and what arrangements
can be made for feeding the prisoners
while there. The climate is colder there
than here, and additional blankets will
have to be provided for them. There is
always a certain amount of sickness
and medicines will have to be pro
vided. The selection of the convicts
to 60 up there will be one that will
not be easy. l will have to send mer
physically strong enough to work, and
at the same time l can not risk sending
desperate or even habitual criminals
Guarding the prisoners adequately will
be a difficult if not an impossible task .
Speaking of the project Governor
Frear said that as the County of Ha
waii would undertake the task of pro
viding for the prisoners after they got
up there and the 1nter-Island Steam
ship Company was expected to carry
them up free, it was anticipated that
the road could be built at comparatively
small expense.

During the storm those aboard the
cruiser were prepared at any time to
see the decks swept of all that could
be carried away. A boat which was
carried forward was washed overheard
by one of the tremendous seas which
struck the warship. A storm usually
effects ship of war more than pas

dueive to equilibrium in heavy wealth

however, her men being tried and sea

much of the business as any master ever
learned.
On the Naval wharf last night it was
told how the Raleigh and other Ameri.
can ships on the night of July 5 last
were ready for action at a moment S
notice. Early in the day of July GER
tain cipher messages had been received
from Washington and the officers of the
fleet were on the alert. They were or
dered to the flagship where consulta'
ton was held. Three japanese men-of.
war had come to Chefoo shortly after
the American boats had arrived and the
report was out that six or seven more
were approaching. The reports of the
movements of the japanese vessels OF
war, in conjunction with the cipher
messages from Washington, put the
American cruisers on guard and the
men of the fleet were ready to clear
decks for action at any moment. But
the order did not ec-ne and in few
days the japanese FaIships withdrew
The men of the Raleigh verify believe
that that night was the most critical IL
the history of the strained relations be
tween Japan and the United States
The records of the war department viii
probably bear out the convictions OF
the crew of the Raleigh.
"We were not looking for trouble,
said one of the gun crew, "but
don It think we would have been disap
pointed if it had come. We were
ready"
The Raleigh came here December II
1903, with three battleships and thre,
cruisers. Kentucky, Wisconsin and Ore
gon and New Orleans, Albany anC
Cincinnati from Yokohama. That wa
the greatest naval demonstration Ho
nolulu ever saw.
The protected cruiser Raleigh is 50C

1t is stated aboard the Raleigh tha
the original orders were for her to cut
out Japanese ports on the run home
and this order also applied to the
Maryland, West Virginia, Pennsylva.
MIA and Colorado. That the orders
were changed and all were ordered to
proceed by way of Yokohama is TAX.
