HAUULA, September T. Joshua
Tucker, secretary to the Land Commits
sioner, arrived here last Saturday, hale
and hearty. He looked over all the
homestead lands before taking his de-
parture the following day.
Mrs Mckenzie, the newly appointed
assistant teacher at Hauula, arrived
last Thursday.
D. P. MeGregor 8 house, which is
being built on one of the homestead
lots, Will be completed this week. This
is the lot Mr.. Ford referred to in his
account of his visit here as one which
will not produce enough to pay its
taxes. The owner of the lot, Mrs. Nc
GregOr, agrees with him, and she has
asked Mr.. Tucker to have the govern
ment take back about five or six acres
of this lot and give her in exchange
the same amount elsewhere. 1t is a
shame to have anyone pay over sixty
dollars an acre for such soil. The APP
praisers themselves will not give ten
dollars an acre for it at the highest,
and yet they are willing to appraise
for others at the ridiculous upset price
of twenty dollars an acre.

PINEY RIDGE A HIT

Another bumper house greeted the
Ipmiey Company at the rise of the cur
tain last night. That quaint southern
comedy-drama "Piney Ridge" was
heartily enjoyed by the largest house
that has yet been in the theater since
the opening of the run. The comedy
part kept the house in roar from the
rise TO the fall of the curtain, and the
frequent bursts Of applause showed
that the dramatic part was keenly fol-
lowed by the boys for sailors We're
very much IN evidence. Certainly the
crowded houses which are now night
" occurrence are bringing out the very
best in the entire company, and it is
pleasure 10 play to such appreciative
audiences. This good old southern play
gives the actors lots of opportunity for
character work, and each one made the
most of his part. 1t is evidently one
Of the successes of the season. and
those who wish to get any seats should
do so in advance, as the sale has been
very heavy for both tonight and We'd
nesdav. This is the last week of the
Lunalev Company, and their two pieces
have been well chosen as TO contrast.
The speeialities were very well receiv-
ed. and the two Macs. as usual, got
hearty applause from the sailors. who
evidenced a sincere desire to shake a
lively foot themselves. Miss Brandon
and Mr.. Taylor both received ovations
for their clever turns, which put the
house in a high good humor.
The honors of the evening were pref
ty evenly distributed among the mem
bers of the company, who were all
heartily applauded for their parts,
which were eleverly delineated.

Fisticuffs and Discipline.

maintain mammoth rings for the set
tlement of disputes arising every
hour of the day.
Unless human nature is changed
radically by being transplanted to a

should work there as we'll as in civil
life. If the aggressor in a dispute
were required TO make an apology or

charge In case he demurred at the
milder punishment, there would no
doubt Oe less inclination among sea-
men TO wrangls and come to blows.

Diamonds in America.

Cen. AIRY to the general impression
diamonds are sold cheaper in the
United States than in any other coun-
try. This is due to America taking
two-thirds Of the output of all
mines, the remaining one-third be-
ing taken by all the other countries
ct ...Jined.
Being the largest buyers. American
dealers not only buy at the lowest
price, but secure the very choicest
stones. This is admitted by Euro
pean dealers.
There is no duty on rough or un-
cut stones coming into the United
States. The American cutters work
is superior to foreign cutting. as is
shown by the fact that nearly every
diamond weighing over .one-quarter
of a carat sold In America, is cut in
America.
On the small cut diamonds, the
duty is only ten per cent. against five
per cent. In Canada. The purchases
of Canada are SO small that the lower
duty Is more than Offset by the in
creased cost to Canadian dealers.

IMPROVED BROILER.

broiling can be readily done on a gas
stove as on coal fire. Attached t,

the circular opening in the stove tho

placing the supports on each side
the broiler can be reversed as oc-
