BALLOON FALLS
GREAT DISTANCE
SLACKENS NEAR GROUND AND
ITS OCCUPANTS ESCAPE IN
JURY.

BERLIN, October 23.-The ParsevaI
rigid dirigible military balloon, which
made an ascent today, burst when at
a height of over mile and fell rapid
ly toward the earth. When close to
the ground it's pace slackened and It
landed gently in a tree. Its occu-
pants were uninjured.
The balloon was making its second
trial trip before military commits
sion appointed to decide whether it is
suitable for army purposes. Major
Won Parseval, inventor of the bal
loon, was present. Within the past few
months the Parseval balloon has made
number of unofficial trial trips. On
September 10th, while attempting a
fight from Berlin to Doebritz, it was
struck by squall at a height of 1000
feet and came down on the roof of a
villa. Its speed slackened in the last
few feet, as it did today, and Major
Won Parseval and his three compan-
ions escaped injury.

AFTER The
MELONFLY
PLAN TO BRING IN A PARASITE
WHICH WILL REVIVE MELON
GROWING HERE.

One of the matters which Entomo-
logist Kotinsliy will bring before the
Legislature with the utmost prom
inence at the coming session and one
which will probably get the support
of everyone in the Territory is the
introduction of a parasite which will
destroy the melon fly. While the
finest of watermelons, cantaloupes,
cucumbers and other fruits of this
variety could be raised here a few
years ago, with the introduction or
the melon fly pest local melons APP
pear to be out of the question unless
the needed parasite can be obtained.
Mr.. Kotinsly has been working on
this subject to considerable extent
and believes that with the proper
study and investigation the proper
parasite can be obtained. In the dis
trict of Waialua, where only a short
time ago the finest of watermelons
We're raised on the higher lands all
attempts to grow them have been
given up on account of the ravages
of the melon fly.

GOVERNOR FREAR GETTING MAT

Governor Frear is very busy at pres

departure for the mainland When he
goes away he will leave plenty of work
for the various department heads to do
and which he wishes in shape before
his return, which he hopes will be
shortly after the first of the year. The
larger TART of this will be in rela-
ton to the preparing of specifications
for the coming SESSION of the legisla-

ture on all work which is recommend
ed. If. this is carefully done the va.
rious departments will be able to ask
for more specific amounts and there
will be less general appropriation of
moneys which often fall short of the
money which is needed.
Another matter on which Governor
Frear will ask for considerable atten-
tion from the department heads will
be in the preparation of bills in regard
to subjects on which legislation is
needed. Governor Frear wishes this
to be done now, that it may be ready
on his return and can be looked over
and changed if necessary before the
legislature meets.

1t is absurd to suppose even
for moment that the Farmers
Union has any connection what
ever, directly CT indirectly, re-
motely or otherwise, with the
efforts being made to terrorize
ginners. The Union is an or
ganization of farmers for their
mutual advantage and protection
and for the advancement of the
best interests of the agricultural
classes generally, but its work is
being conducted along perfectly
legitimate lines. The personnel
OF the Union emphatically mega
jives the idea that the member
ship would resort to unlawful
methods under any circumstances
There are no more patriotic, law
abiding citizens IN the entire
country than the members OF the
Farmers Union, and it is an
insult to their intelligence
and reflection on heir good
characters to suspect them

rious business Of The so-called

oonally at least four-flths of the

LETS OUT BANK OFFICERS.
Exonerated in Case of Closing Coal
gate Institution

Coalgate, Ok, October 22.-Exonerat-
ing the officers of the Bank of Coal
gate and recommending the removal
of Herb H. Smock, a bank examiner
of Oklahoma, a grand jury sitting
here has submitted the report of its
investigation of the closing of the
Bank of Coalgate, a state institution
operating under the provisions of the
state guaranty law.
Examiner Smock closed the bank on
the grounds that the officers were
violating the state banking laws by
loaning themselves the funds of the
bank. The officers, DR.. L. A Conner
and Lee Elsey, convinced the grand
jurors that the money they received
from the bank alleged to be loans did
not equal the amount the bank owed
them in salary.
Bank Examiner Smock was charged
with closing the bank for political
purposes. Governor Haskell sent a
special prosecutor here and the grand
jury was composed of nine Democrats
and three Republicans
