ance of Case for Three
Weeks

Theodore V. Halsey's serious illness
occasioned another continuance of his
case for three weeks yesterday morn

Deasey remarked that something
ought to be done one way or the other
in the case. The matter had been. hang

and if the defendant is as i'll as

Attorney Breen, Halsey'ss lawyer, said
the delay was entirely unavoidable and

CHILDREN 'SHOSPITAL
NEEDS USUAL AID
Donation Days, December u.
23 and "a, Will Be Observed
as in Former Years

Confident that the people of San
Francisco will not plead tag day" as
an excuse for not responding with coal.
wood, money. clothing, foodstuffs and
the other necessaries of life, the tiny
tots of the Children's hospital will hold
their donation days this year as they
have each year in the past The days
set are December %. 23. "a. The COM
mittees which will receive the gifts
VIII be stationed at w. & j, Sloane &
Co. s store and at the White House.
The Childrens hospital is at present
caring for more than 100 sick
babes. and the expense incurred in the
maintenance of such an institution is
great. The Chifdren's hospital is not
endowed, and this makes necessary
frequent appeals to the generosity of
San Francisco's men and women.
Anything which can be made useful
at the hospital will be accepted. This
includes money. Those who do not
choose to make their donations in
money may present to the committees
orders on any store for the goods they
wish to give.
The money given on tag day" was
for the erection OF a new building to
house more sick little ones. Now the
hospital asks the public to assist in the
proper care for those already housed.
Large sums of money, as we'll as a
vast amount of coal, clothing and the
other articles asked, have been received
each year for many years past, and 1t
is expected that the public of San F'ran-
cisco will not be less generous in 1908
than the San Francisco public Of other
years and assurances OF generous aid
have been received.
The committee in charge of the dona-
ton days consists of:
Mrs. I. n. Walter. chairman; Mrs L.
L. Dunbar, Mrs. George Grant, Mrs. j.

THE LAHA|NA
WATER WORKS
SUPERINTENDENT CAMPBELL
PLANS SOME IMPROVEMENTS IN
THE SYSTEM.
CAMPBELL

While at Lahaina Superintendent
Marston Campbell, of the Department
of Public Works spent considerable
time in looking over the water works
system of the town as we'll as a num-
Der of park projects and harbor i'm
provements contemplated. AS a result
it is probable that steps will be taken
in a short time to improve the water
supply of the town which at present is
not of the best owing to the fact that
the drainage of a strip of taro lands
and some pasturage lands gets into it.
This can be eliminated by the use OF an
extension of wooden stave pipe, which
will probably be built from the fund
for the maintenance of water works,
and ultimately more extensive i'm
provements made.
A recreation park with base ball
ground is also wanted at the old capt.
tai, but this cannot be established
without special act of the Legislature.
A considerable amount of grading and
filling in of number of fish ponds is
involved in this project.

WHY AMERICANS LEAVE.

A man was brought up before Judge
Lindsay the other day to state why
he should not be punished for con-
tempt of court, because of failure to
pay alimony. The man, a carpenter
on the stand testified that he was UNI
able to secure steady employment on
account of the preference given to ORR
entail mechanics. The case dismissed.
The case is a pretty illustration OF
the speed with which this Territory is
being un-Americanized. Instead OF
giving Americans a chance to make a
living here by throwing all the work
possible in their way, even work per-
formed for the Federal government is
entrusted to Asiatics by men who talk
loud of the necessity of making this a
truly American country.
Is it a wonder that the mainlander
smiles ironically when he hears our
protestations and that the good men
who could help to make this group an
actual American territory leave the
islands instead of inducing Others to
settle down here?-Garden Island.

A genuine American bald eagle
was shot Sunday by Edw. Stava
near his home four miles east of
town. The bird was first seen
soaring above the lake nearby,
seeking to pounce upon the flock
of wild ducks. Ed immediatly
took his gun and hid himself a.
mong trees. The eagle in few
minutes headed towards him and
when reabhinge at range, Ed took
a good aim and brought him
down. lnasmuch as he was
wounded in the wirg only short
battle was fought between him
and Edwards dog, the latter
seemingly getting the worst of it.
A second shct, however, ended
the struggle. Ed brought him to
our Office for classification, not
knowsng what specie it might be.
The eagle was not yet full grown
having dark brown feathers mixed
with white on his head, (The full
grown have white heads) 1t
