GOOD WORDS
FOR CRhNF|ELD

The following extracts from Coast
sporting papers will be read with in
terest by local dog-lovers:
The Honolulu Kennel Club show will
be held during the week the fleet is in
the harbor.
Mr.. George A Cranfield has been
engaged to judge all breeds. The
island sportsmen are to be congratu-
lated on the choice they have made.
Mr.. Cranfield has had an experience
that viii enable him to do justice TO
the various classes.
Doggy affairs have taken on quite
an upward turn in the far away Pa
cific Territory and no doubt there will
be a large entry, the judge is deserving
of it.-Breeder and Sportsman.
George A Cranfield, who has charge
of that grand kennel of collies known
as the Valverde Kennels. at San Fran
cisco, will judge all breeds of the Ha-
waiian Kennel Club show at Honolulu.
The show will be held next July and
the Honolulu fanciers are to be con-
graduated upon obtaining the services
of a man who has had so many years
experience in this and other countries
as breeder, ehibitor and judge. 1t is
most probable that a good number of
dogs will leave san Francisco for Ho-
nolulu under the care of two we'll
known handlers.-Field and Fancy.
George Cranfield has accepted the
invitation TO judge at Honolulu next
July. How the invitation came is a
story in itself. Some time ago he adj
vertised some bull terrier puppies in
one of the Honolulu papers. AS an
aid to selling them he wrote to one of
the officials of the Honolulu Kennel
Club asking for a catalogue of last
show. In answering him this gentle
man wanted to know if he were the
George Cranfield who judged so many
shows in Australia and on receiving
an affirmative reply Immediately spoke
for his services for their show.
We hope they show their apprecia-
ton by giving him a good entry, as
We know he can take care of it.
Mr.. Cranfield has had eighteen years
experience as a judge, breeder and ex-
hi5itor in England. Australia and
America. Our experience of his judg-
ing here is that he has given unusual
satisfaction. having his type well in
mind and never reverses himself. His
especial breeds are terriers, grey
hounds, collies. settlers and pointers

MAY CLAIM MILEAGE.

Some of the members of the crew
of the S. S. Rosecrans, witnesses in a
murder case, John Wynn's horrible
killing of Officer McKinnon, are con-
sidering a demand for mileage from
the Federal government. They have
been subpoenaed to show here during
the trial and are wondering II they
are required to work or pay their way
here in order to appear. when they
may get, perhaps, for the asking, five
cents a mile from the government, or
something like $500 each.

Made the Judqe Perspire.

Sir John Charles Day. the English judge who earned the title of the "hooligan's terror" died at the age of eighty-two. In the nineteen years Sir John was a judge of the high court from 1882 to 1901-he was noted for his gift of solemn humor and for his drastic fogging sentences. In fourteen years he sentenced l37 criminals to 3.766 strokes of the cat. Once be said to a gang of Liverpool ruffians: 'I am not going to give you men long terms of Imprisonment, but when you go in you get twenty lashes of the cat; when you have been in nine months you get twenty lashes of the cat; before you come out you get twenty lashes of the cat. And then you can show what you have got to your friends" He was per. haps the only English judge who ever did hard labor" While on a visit to prison he tried the treadmlll. but when he asked 10 be set free the guard pre- tended not to hear his request. The judge was perspiring freely by the time he was permitted to abandon his experiment.

RAILROAD MEN
Remarkable Distance Covered by
 Through Train Employes.

All the passenger employees on the through trains of the New Haven service cover great distance within year when actual figures are con- suited. Each employe on the trains from Boston to New York travel in
 12 months, 71,s64 miles, or almost
 three times the circumference of the
 globe.
 These men ride the enormous dis tance while on duty and considering the riding to and from work or dead
 heading" as 1t Is called in railroad
 circles, almost all of them travel a
 distance equal to more than three times as far around this planet.
 It is interesting to study the rail-
 road man who enters both the freight pa and passenger service, as they are a cosmopolitan lot of jolly fellows ready to do anything within reason for a fellow workman. They daily take
 their lives in their hands and at ire quent intervals return from work to hear that one of their companions has been injured or perhaps killed.
 Nearly all trades and professions
 are represented among the ranks of the New Haven employees from sol
 diers and sailors to medical and law students. The local division at one time had passenger brakeman who was studying for the ministry and at , present there in, third year medical student in the service. W. M. Dunn. who is now prospering attorney in , Gary, Ind, was once passenger brakeman running out of New Lon , don.
 A short while ago one of Barnum
 & Bailey's best animal trainers was a i freight brakeman. He had been
 with the circus training animals and especially elephants for some time and desiring a change of livelihood joined the ranks of the railroad men. He served for few years as a freight , brakeman and then returned again to the circus and is to-day considered to be. one of the best trainers of eIe- plants with Barnum & Baileys show.

JACQUES
THE EMBASSY BALL.

The present week is one which will probably be long remembered at the Jacques for it marks the introduction of fashions latest fad, the sheath gown, to Waterbury. During the famous ball room scene in the suc- cessful comedy ''The Embassy Ball" which will be played by the Stock Company this week, Miss Frances Nordstrom will wear one of the new sheath gowns. The creation was im- ported through the agency of the Reid & Hughes company and is of the very latest style. The Embassy Balp is modern comedy and its central character Is most amusing army type. Aside from the comedy and amusing situations, there is an absorbingly interesting story. The dialogue of the piece is brilliant. The play has been handsomely staged and there will be special matinee features. Between the acts there are new illustrated songs and motion pictures. Polls popular prices.

Erendnnn nf tha Prass

The battle for a free press in the full modern sense was fought out be- tween l764 and 1771. beginning with the prosecution of Wilkes for attack ing Butte in the North Briton and end ing with the successful resistance to the proclamation by which the com mons had forbidden the publication of their debates. Six printers who had infringed the proclamation were sum- moned to the bar of the house. Five obeyed, and the messenger of the house was sent to arrest the sixth. The lord mayor sent the messenger to prison. The house of commons sent the lord mayor to the Tower, but he was released at the next propagation, and the day on which he left the Tower marked the end of the last attempt to silence the press.-New York Arneri- rnn

CLOTHING. FOR HOT CLIMATES.

 a inic Rays of the Sun.

The question of devising a suit able fabric for wearing apparel suit able to tropical climates, which shall shield the wearer from the actinic rays of the sun, Is one that has oc- cupied conspicuous attention during recent years. A thin white material is generally selected for this pur- pose, preferably white duck; and althought 1t promotes certain de- gree. of coolness and comfort, 1t does not succeed in fulfilling healthy conditions. Discriminating nature has provided the, native in the torrid belt with an effective protection against the sun in a, skin. pigmenta- tion which absorbs the actinic rays SO that their dangerous effects upon the constitution are 'counteracted Consequently, the native is able to continue his labors without the slightest signs of fatigue during the hottest time of the day, when the white man is practically. .prostrated or at any rate refrains from carry ing out his duties from motives of R-preservation.F ''-e'..' :, 7''
 Investigation has shown that the piercing actinic rays striking the neck and back exercise a highly dangerous effect upon the spinal column and the nerve centers, which react upon the organs of the stomach promoting such maladies as indiges- ton, which in turn react upon the brain, and which in time completely undermine the physical condition of the body. until, at last collapse re- suits. Experiments have proved that If only the. natural pigmenta- tion of the native is artificially pro- duced In the clothing of the white man, he experiences no more harm ful effects than the former, since the long or heat rays in themselves are quite fnnocuous, so far as effect up- on the constitution is concerned. The degree of protection secured by augmentation has been decided by practical Investigation, and 1t was found to have strong absorption qualities. in regard to actinic or short rays, the degree of pigmenta- tion being proportionate to the in- tensity of the light prevailing in the natives accustomed environ ment. A thin layer of the skin was obtained, and the spectrum of an electric arc between two iron poles photographed after the rays had passed through the layer. It was found that the dark brown skin of the Hindu entirely absorbed all the rays of shorter length than $500. From the result of these observa- tions, it is obvious that the white man when in the tropics should wear black, red, or. orange colored cloth ing owing to'its preventing the pas sage of the short rays.-Scientific American.

French Economy.

"A man doesn't have to go to Paris to learn something about the econo- my of French cooks" said janitor. All he has to do is to get job like mine in a house occupied mostly by French families, and he'll learn some astonishing lessons in the art of say Ing. Up to two months ago I was working in a building of that kind. So far as attending to the garbage was concerned, had the easiest time of my life. There was practically no garbage. The people lived we'll enough, I guess. Anyhow they re- ceived packages from the butcher and grocer, but they never seemed to throw anything away. About the only thing they didn't eat was coffee grounds and potato skins and tomato cans, and there was precious little waste of even that
 "Where I am working now the fami- lies are all American. That is where the food goes to waste. The people in that house throw away enough pro- visions every day to feed all those French families a week."-San Fran cisco Chronicle.

THE oLD-TIME NEGRO HUNTERS

We may pride ourselves on our woodcraft, but there are few who command more knowledge of the ways of small woodstock than the negroes who lived on the edge of the woods. Naturally. superstitious, if they did not understand the ways of an animal, they credited it with oc- cult powers 1t did not possess, and &C., counts of its supposed actions were be lieved by their fellows and passed down from father to son as gospel truth. ,5 B.. tr-,. | Always willing to entertain, the old negro hunter made a good com panion as well as guide, and the picturesque yarns spun by some of them around the camp fire or in the cabins in the south have when put in print, enliyened leisure hours of sportsmen whose fortune it has never been to know them we'll and to ap- preciate them at their true value.
 Unlike their offspring, the old-time negroes respected the breeding and the nesting seasons. With them their was a time to hunt. time to fish, and time to refrain from both. They observed natures laws better than their progeny observe the laws of the state, for to them the game and the fish represented feast in the cabins, on certain occasions, to which they looked forward with pleasure.
