Laupahoehoe, Feb. 13, 1908.
To the Editor of the Evenin &
Bulletin, Honolulu.
Dear Sir:-I wish to let you know
how we are working on our farm.
Tho boys have prepared eighteen
beds which are already planted with
vegetables, and ten beds are ready TO
receive plants. They are all rectan-
gular beds, seven yards long and four
feet wide. The boys have planted
onions in two beds, mustard In six
beds, radishes in six beds, lettuce in
two beds, and corn in two beds. Last
Arbor Day we planted forty-one ba-
mana trees and they are growing fine
and we have planted peppers be.
tween them SO as to save more
ground.
The girls are very anxious to work
in their flower gardens. Many of the
flowers are blooming. Some of the
girls had planted sunnowers before
Christmas and they are blooming
now.
Last week the amount Of precipi'
tation was unusually heavy, the to-
tai being 11.40 inches. Owing tc
heavy rainfalls last week we were
unable to do much work on oul
farm. Very few children were pres
ent at school.
The boys are working very hare
this week in digging the stones on
of the ground and carrying then
away in .wheelbarrows to the stone
pile. This Is all I can write to yc,
this week.
Yours respectfully.

A very satisfactory showing was
made by the Honokaa Sugar Co. at

this forenoon at the Offices OF f. A.
Schaefer & Co. The use OF the wa

the plantation a chance to take up a
large area of new land, and the crop
Of 1910 will have the biggest area on
record. Manager, Gjerdrum reported
in part as follows:
Crop 1907. 2725 acres were har-
vested, yielding $685. tons of sugar,
or STA tons per acre. The grinding
began in the second week of January
and was finished during the last
week OF August. Due to having wa
ter for fuming and harvesting the
crop. all our applaud plant cane was
harvested early, hence the ratoons
for 1909 crop are looking very prom

The crop of 1908 will consist OF

of cane, at S:5 tons of cane per one

The crop of 1909 will consist of
$500 acres. AS the cane was planted
In good season and the ratoons have

looks at present very promising. 800

1900 acres of new land will enable
us to let some of our Oldest fields lay
fallow and thereby improve the yield

very small. The soil on the newly
cleared land has been analysed by the
Experiment Station and found to bt
excellent
For the crop of 1910 we intend t.
plant and ration 3400 acres.
Further on. while speaking of har

MAN KILLED MOTHER
Shot Her Because She Kept
Him in Public Insti-
tutionS.
DID "BITS" ALL HIS LIFE.

New York, April 9.-Because his
mother, Susan Carlin, had sent him to
various reformatory institutions in
which he was a prisoner for many
years, Barnard Carlin shot and in
stantly killed her at her home in
Quincy street. Brooklyn. Young Car
lin had just been released from the
reformatory at Napanooh, where he
served a sentence for stealing a
horse and wagon.
When Carlin was freed from the
reformatory the superintendent gave
him $40 for new start in life. He ar
rived in Brooklyn yesterday and went
to the apartments where his mother
lived with his sister Mary. When his
mother opened the door he thrust the
revolver in her face and fired five bull
lets into her head. He then attempt
ed to shoot his sister, but the revol-
Yer was empty. He was captured af-
ter a desperate struggle in which he
severely injured one of his captors.
He told the police that he killed his
mother because she made me do
bits all my life" He declared that
she sent him to an orphan asylum
when he was Is months old, and had
kept him in some kind of an institu-
ton most of his life.

LINTON MINERS
DROP THEIR PICKS
Action Due to a Misunder-
standing.

Terre Haute. Ind, April 9.-Authen-
tic reports reached the city that the
Linton miners have dropped their
picks and refused to continue work, an
action which is in violation of the
agreement between the joint conven-
ton of miners and operators last
week. National Board Member Har-
grove is in the city and will go TO Lin
ton tomorrow with President Van
Horn, Vice President Curry, Secretary
Fox and Board Member w. P. Rollins
and attempt TO induce the recalcitrant
miners to return to work.
The action of the Linton miners, the
officers say, is due to a misunderstand-
ing of the situation The delegates
voted for the resolution by which
work was to be continued under the
old contract until a new one could be
arranged, yet the locals are disregard
ing it. The report that the delegates
of both Clinton and Linton fields OPP
posed the resolution was erroneous.
The opposition comes entirely from
the miners in the field.

Brings Indiana in the

WISEACRES' PREDICTION

Indianapolis, Ind, April 9.-With
the merger of the two medical colleg-
es in Indianapolis, physicians, connect
ed with both schools predict that In
dianapolis next fall will have a school
that will bid fair to become one of the
largest in the country, because of the
immense amount of tributary territory
from which it will draw patronage. 1t
is believed that in d very short time
1t will eclipse the medical school at
Ann Arbor, Mich. The school will
draw from a tributary population of
100000 people. In this respect mas
much as it will be the only school of
its kind in the city and the largest in
the state, it will have the advantage
over the medical colleges in New York
and Chicago. There are twenty med
ical colleges in the former city, with
it's population of 4,OOO,OOO or more and
fifteen colleges in the latter city with
its population of nearly 100000.

MERRY WIDOW HATS
JAR ON PROFESSORS
Pretty Goods at Indiana Hit
BY Order.

Bloomington, Ind, April 9.-"Merry
Widow" hats have taken Indiana Uni
versity by storm with the result that
several of the professors have put the
ban on them in their class rooms.
Before the spring vacation the big
hats were unknown in Bloomington,
but nearly every coed came back to
school Monday with one of the giant
straws, and the campus is dotted with
them.
Prof. A. NJ. Brooks head Of the fine
arts department. says the hats are a
revival of a style in vogue in the lat
ter part of the eighteenth century.
They were called leghorns because
they came from Leghorn, Italy.
