COURT HAPPENINGS.

Judge Lindsay yesterday refused to
release Harry T. Mills, on writ of ha-
beas corpus. An appeal was noted to
the Supreme Court, and Mills was re-
leased on his own recogHizance. Mills
was represented by Judge Quarles who
contended that there was no sufficient
judgment to support the mittimus. The
sheriff was represented by Deputy
County Attorney Milverton. Judge
Lindsay refused to go into the ques-
ton of whether there had been in fact
a contempt Of court by Mills.
Counsel for the Liliha street property
owners and for the Rapid Transit Cons
pany were engaged before the Supreme
Court yesterday in settling the find
ings of fact preparatory TO appeal TO
the United States Supreme Court.

THE APPALACHIAN BILL. .

Forestry and Irrigation says: Even
far away Hawaii is champloniEss The
Appalachian bill. The Pacific Com
mercial Advertiser (Honolulul OF
March, urges the Territorial delegate
to do whatever falls in his way to aid
the Appalachian bill and any other
legitimate measure of the same kind.
Broadly speaking" says the CONNER
ciaI Advertiser, ''it is a question of
first economic Importance to the Ma
ton" and points out that, by deferring
the timber famine. it will also help
Hawaii. In addition, such an acqui-
sition would be, it concludes, of first
Importance to the country at large.
Would that some statesmen nearer
home were as clear sighted as this
Hawaiian editor!

Mrs. MackaIs recital which is to be
given the evening of April 2Sth, in the
ballroom of the Alexander Young
Hotel, has created much comment in
all quarters. Although it seemed un-
fortunate and unprofessional to change
the date of her recital without a very
good cause, it seemed to Mrs MackaIl
the wisest course to pursue since the
first performance of 1.-The Mascot" has
been set on the date previously an
nounced by her. 1t must be under
stood, however, that the concert is not
postponed in the proper sense of the
word, but is to be given two days in
advance of the first date published.
No program has ever been given
in Honolulu at an affair of this kind,
which was more attractive than this
one in which our best known soprano
is to be assisted by four ladies of wide
ly known abilities.
Mrs. Mackall alene always attracts
large audiences who are sure to feel
wholly satisfied with the freshness and
inspiration of her singing. The songs
which she has chosen for Tuesday
night will appeal to all, the simple rnu-
sic lover and the cultivated one. It is
always a bit of education for stu
dent to hear her, for her art represents
that rare phase of being hidden in it
self. In other words, she has con-
quered the technicalities, leaving ma
turalness and simplicity still para
mount. Most of her songs are quite
familiar to all with the possible excep-
tion of the German group This will
comprise four songs by modern COM
posers, the first two by Richard
Strauss, our master-composer of today.
Anyone familiar with his works knows
the difficulties one encounters in the
But one of the delights
of Mrs. Mackall's singing is, that she
never disappoints us.
Miss Grace Webster, who makes first
public appearance in Honolulu at this
recital will sing one English and one
Scotch song-both charming and fam
liar, giving full evidence of the un-
usual range and power of her voice
A. LisZt number has been selected
by Mrs. Whitney for her solo. Her
is full of artistic, touches
which only one of her ability can pro-
duce. Mrs. Humphris' three recitations
viii give full scope to her varied and
delicate powers of expression and will
be sure to appeal to all because of their
widely different emotional qualities.
Those who hear Miss Clarke in the
compartments, will be eager to hear
her in solos in the near future. She
meets splendidly all the varied re-
luirements of the songs.
The fact that Mrs. Mackall was fore
I'd to change her date has but added
interest to the recital which promises !
TO be the most pleasurable and arais- |!
tic one of it's kind given in Honolulu. i

ORCHARDS SHOULD PAY BETTER

The farmers in general of Michigan
are making a great mistake in the
way they are robbing their farms.
Many a farmer is taking all he can
from his farm every year and is put
ting little or nothing back upon the
soil and the result is a gradual de-
crease in production every year 1t
is seldom and only in Isolated cases
that we hear of land producing the
crops that it did 25 years ago We
farming. for we have wonderfully i'm
proved the tools in the last decade,
both for planting and harvesting.
There can be only one solution of the
question of decreased crops.
The apple crop is a total failure
this year, as compared with other
years. Very few orchards receive any
care from the farmer, either in till
ing the soil or spraying the trees and
we are now reaping the result of this
neglect in the loss of crop. In the
city of Lansing, the capital of our
state, apples imported from Idaho are
retailing at forty cents per dozen or
four cents for a single apple. What
do you think of that in one of the
best fruit states of this country?
Thousands of apple orchards in this
state are left absolutely to themselves
never cultivated. never sprayed, ant
A, in large per cent of the orchards tn
trees are not even trimmed from one
year TO another. No finer Favored
fruit can be produced anywherei thar
in Michigan, and yet unless there be {
change We shall be importing on
fruit from even less favored states
Owners OF orchards should awaken tC
the fact that if properly cared TO
the orchard will be the best money
producer on the farm.
We are indebted 20 s. w Case TO
