SAY ENGINES ARE
CAUSING FIRES
Property Owners Complain O.
Damage Caused by Sparks
Along the B. & 0.

Owners Of land along the Philadel-
.phia division and the Landenberg
branch Of the Baltimore and Ohio rail-
road are complaining of the many
fires caused recently by sparks from
locomotives. 1t is asserted that the
larger locomotives drawing heavy
trains, especially thoee in the freight
service, have no device to arrest sparks
and that the big locomotives belch out
embers Of coal and sparks and these
set fire to hedges and timber.
A few days ago a valuable tract of
timber along the Landenberg branch
was seriously damaged as the result of
sparks causing fire among the trees,
and this week 4 valuable hedge along
the farm Of George A. Elliott, near
Newark, skirting the railroad right of
way was destroyed along with some
other growths in the fields. Several
other complaints also have been made
and the property owners are talking
of bringing the matter formally to the
attention Of the railroad company and
may claim damages.

Pol IN HAWAII.
The Favorite Food Of the Natives and
How II Is Made.

The Favorite Food Of the Natives and
How II Is Made.
In years gone by each native Hawai-
ian took particular pride in producing
his own poi "a food made from the
taro plant, but nowadays it is made
In factories, the work being done al
most wholly by the native born China
men, who receive 81 per day for their
labors.
1 was fortunate enough at Lahalna,
however, to see this stan Of life made
In the old fashioned way. The taro
plant seems to be a cross between a
sweet potato and a turnip, and the root
Is long and feshy. This, after steam
ing, must be pounded into a sort Of
-four before mixing. A stone pestle is
used, and often it requires hours to
beat the root to the proper consisten-
cy. When a certain stage is reached
water is added, and it is worked into
a thin paste put into a barrel and al
lowed to ferment. The taste for poi
has to be acquired, and few If any
foreigners ever care for it as food. To
me 1t suggested sour starch. 1t Is
served on the native table in a huge
wooden bowl known as a calabash.
from which It is eaten with the I'm
gers, each member Of the family dip
ping into the same dish. The number
Of fingers used is measured by the
thickness of the poi, three fingers be-
ing required for the thinnest and one
for that mixed to the consistency Of
mush. The taro plant is easily culti-
waited Cthis is also done by Chinamen),
and l am told that one square mile OF
taro will feed $4,000 natives. Factory
made poi, which is pinkish purple in
color, costs 81 a bag. about the size Of
a -four sack containing an eighth OF a
barrel. 1t is nutritious, cheap and fat
tening. Poi is the principal food Of
the lauas (native feasts). Roast pig
is usually the. meat on these festive
ccasions.-Leslie's Weekly.

Of charges rejecting on the iatter's
conduct while he was commander Of

Lived in Guarded House.
Ever since the troubles in the dis
trict, Wolls has maintained an armed
guard about his home. He has also had
electric lights strung so that any one
approaching from any quarter can be
seen long before they reach the house.
Despite this fact some one today man.
aged to explode the bomb, the exact
character of which is not known.
At the time Wells was sleeping as
was his habit on a bed, placed on
an outer screened porch. The bomb
was placed under this porch and SET
of The side Of the house was torn
completely out, hardly stick of the
bed remained and fragments OF wood
were scattered over the neighborhood
while Wells was thrown many feet
Though badly shaken lp and bruised
he was not seriously hurt.

puties are investigating and have sent
to Canyon City for the State blood
