MR.. GIFFARD ON MAUI.

w. NJ. Gifard returned yesterday by
the steamer CIaudine from visit to
West Maui. He was gone a week. It
was intended that Prof Lewton-Brain
of the Planters Experiment Station
should have gone with him to make a
study Of the fungus tree root blight
which is destroying the forests in East
Maui. The weather conditions, how
ever, were not favorable for that and
he did not go. DIR. Perkins also was
to have gone to survey the field there
from an chronological point of view.

tory on Maui, !" said Mr.. Gifard. .SThe

mendations that are made 10 them by
what is known as "the General Board.
The General Board has no specific
authority Of law for its existence but
the Navy Department, with the APP
prevail of the President designates five
officers TO serve upon it. They are at
present Admiral Dewey, who has be-
come a very old man, the president Of
the Naval War College. the chief Of
the Bureau of Navigation, the Chief
Intelligence officer, and a secretary Of
the rank of lieutenant commander.
Something like a half dozen officers
are also detailed for special duty with
the board, but not as members of it.
The General Board, for example, as
one feature Of its extensive delibera-
tions. makes up program Of navy
construction for each year. 1t recon-
mends the building Of a half dozen
new battleships. This recommendation
goes to the Board on Construction,
which approves perhaps only half that
number. So there is constant friction
between the two boards, each trying
TO have its way with the Secretary Of
the Navy.
officers in sympathy with the Gem
eraI Board are credited with having
stirred up much OF the agitation about
defective battleship construction, an in
efficient organization of the Navy De-
partment Charges of defective con-
struction hit at every member of the
Board on Construction. Charges against
the bureau system were intended in
some part, for the same bureau Of
ficers. There has been new turn with
reference to the latter matter, how
ever. Some Senator'S, among them Mr..
Hale. believes the bureau system. with
certain notifications for the better

sibility. would be satisfactory. They
also believe the General Board breeds
much unnecessary trouble as a con-
ficting official body and should be
abolished.
AS far as the navy officers are con-
cerned their battle is now chiefly be-
tween the adherents of the General
Board and the adherents Of the Board
on Construction. The investigation OF
the general subject has been welcomed
because of the interest it would quick |
en- in navy matters. But the develop |
ments to date have also brought about |
decentralization in the department, the |
two factions now beirg intent upon |
fighting it out to the bitter end.

RUNDOWN
CONDITION DUE
TO OVERWORK
A Battle Greek Woman Describes
Her Symptoms and Tells
How DR.. Williams Pink
Pills Cured Her.

The symptoms described in the fol-
lowing case are so common today
wherever overwork and worry have re-
suited in a decline in health that the
means by which a cure was effected
deserve the careful attention of every
thoughtful man and woman. 1t is such
conditions as are here described that
are commonly neglected until the in
jury to the health is past repair. 1t is
therefore the part of wisdom to take
the remedy that cured Mrs. James
struwin, of 4SS West Main street, Bat
tie Creek, Mich. as soon as the first
warning symptoms are noted. She
says:
For several months I was sick with
anaen1ia and part of the time had to
remain in bed. tt was brought on by
overwork which produced a un-down

So general is the success of DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills in curing anaemia
that it may be safely stated that they
are the most certain remedy for all
conditions of thin, weak and watery
blood. They are also a tonic for the
nerves and have cured indigestion and
general debility, where the stomach
and other organs of the body are weak

most every day in the year, and enjoy
the bright sunshine and breath the pure

are permitted to do about as they

appointed tasks that they do very
painstakingly. They, however. do it in
their own way, nor can they be per-
suaded to do it in any other way.
Others again have got the idea that
the authorities are all crazy, and that
they are the only sane men there. But
for all that, they have, as Bobby Burn
