MISUNDERSTANDING
RESULTS IN DEATH

LIHUE, Kauai, November 14.-One
of those unhappy accidents, that arc
liable to happen to people who are uu-
able to make themselves understood in
the language of the country came to
light in Hanamaulu this week.
A Spaniard and his wife had been
lover on the leeward side last week and
when they had gone into one of the
stores to buy bottle of "alcolada, 4"
which is the Spanish word for bay rum,
the clerk understanding the customers
to say that they wanted alcohol, sold
them bottle of wood alcohol.
1t appears that bay rum has a null
titude of uses in Spain and the West
Indies, one of them being that of a
stimulant. 1t was as substitute for
gin that these people bought and drank
it with the result that the woman died
in fearful agonies while the man s eye.
sight is entirely gone.

THANKFUL FOR
SMALL MERC|ES

L. Il. A1cCandless, under date of No
vember 6, wrote to the Democratic
County Committee of Hawaii, thank
ing the members for the support given
him. He said:
~ suppose you know by this time
that / have been defeated, but do not
let that worry you. We put up clean,
sensible, hard fight for what is just;
for a square deal' for the people OF
this Territory.
"We will hold the Republican party
responsible to make good its promises
within the next two years. If it does
not, we will be after it Just as hard
and better prepared than this year.
"The Hawaiians in my home pre-.
einct, by their votes, show the people
of the whole Territory how false the
Republican Islander against me is.
This precinct (Second of the Fifth
Distrlct) gave me 55 votes, besides
spoiled ballots thrown out, which were
also for me. 1t gave Kuhio only 4
votes and Motley 81. Out of 80 votes
in the precinct only two are haoles
Two years ago the precinct was Repub
lican.
"Give my best regards to all who
worked SO hard for my success and foi
the principles promulgated in the Dem
oeratic platform, and extend my sin
cere thanks to the voters on the Island
of Hawaii for the strong, solid support
given me which is apparent in every
preeinct.'

1t is wonderful to note the interest
displayed by the Taiwans in the erect

the mill every day, many coming from

Ako, South Formosa, Japan,


October "a, 1908.
Editor Advertiser: 1t may interest
some Of the readers of your paper to
know how and under what conditions
the Honolulu Iron Works sugar mills
are being erected in Formosa. There are
at present FIVE mills under construction
within radius of fifty miles, two mills
by Japanese engineers, one by German
and two by men from Honolulu Iron
Works.
To see such lot of machinery as is
represented by five mills lying on the
beach at Takau at one time it would
seem hardly possible for each engineer
to pick what belonged to his company
and get it to its destination. The bay
at Takau was a busy sight with barges
and boats coming to and forth, loaded
sometimes beyond capacity with heavy
machinery, but taking into considera-
ton the rough weather and other i'm
peiiments the work of unloading the
fleet of steamers progressed very
quickly.
The Ensiko mill was the first to
start; the Germans second and Homo
lulu Iron Works last. On first appear
ance the mill site at Ako, the largest
of the two Hawaiian mills, looked like
a stretch of typical Hawaiian rice
patches and all these had to be filed
in before the work Of construction
could commence.
The first column of the building was
put in position on the twenty-third OF
April and then the rainy season COM
menced, but though it delayed the work
it did not stop it for now feeling had
crept into the mind of each engineer
to try and get steam on their respec.
tive mills first and it may be pleasing
to know that Ako was, the first mill
to gain that honor and distinction.
Steam was got up on the battery OF
boilers on the twenty-frst Of October
and the whole machinery turned over
and run for twenty-four hours without
a hitch or stop, while Ensiko mill will
yet. There was the general Japanese
congratulations and the good cheer that
existed and was commented on natural.

HIGH SCHOOL REVERSES
LAST WEEKS DECISION
tFrom Sunday s Advertiser,
All Played Well.

1 can say very conscientiously that
if / were to attempt to hand out the
commentator coming to the players
l should devote half page to each
of the twenty-five men on the field
Every man played his part well, and
played with that wonderful spirit
that makes good winning and good
losing teams.
Will Desha, at quarter; De Brette'
VILE, at right end, and Fraser, who
was unfortunately hurt and sent of
the field fighting to remain, stand out
particularly in my memory on the Pu'
nahou side. Besides those mentioned
already, King, at quarter, and Achieu
with precise parting in the middle
of his hair, at left end, made them
selves conspicuous by determined and
crafty rushing and tackling for the
High School.
Story of the Game.
Punahou kicked off and Kuwamoto
was downed on the thirty-yard line
Two small gains and then kick gave
the ball to Bill Desha, who made fif'
teen yards before he fell. Punahou
Kicked and sent to the school thirty
yard line, where McCandless bucked
twice, once for eight and once fol
three yards, making the gain.
Then Rice was caught in flow OF
Punahou players and carried back sew
eral yards, so Andrews handed out
one of his peerless punts. This took
the ball to the Punahou thirty five
yard line, and Lyman tried for an enc
run, but was forced back.
Lota kicked and the school tool
possession exactly on the halfway
| line; then McCandless tried for {
trick run, but was baked, and An
drews cleared with another punt
Lota caught and made good run, but
| ran into hard bunch and lost post
of what he had gained.
Again the ball was snapped on the
| half way line and Punahou signalet
for forward pass. De Brettevillt
caught very cleverly and looked like
getting away, but he was downed be
/ fore he was started, and Punaho,
| snapped well down towards the schoo
goal. Then the college started i;
series ofrvery' effective bucks whicl
took them to down exactly tel
! yards from the school line, with tn
I ball in their possession.
Everybody thought they would score
but they made a bad error of judg
ment by passing forward, and the pla.
resulted in disaster for them. Higl
School kicked out and the ball wa
soon working in Punahou territory
Then it was that, after four minute
of play, Andrews made his great blocl
and run and scored the first touch
down, afterwards converting and max
ing the score to o in favor of Higl
School.

High School Bucks.

Then the High School started a
course of hard bucks down the center
of the field. They lost several times,
but always regained near the same
place, and gradually worked their way
to in front of the Punahou goal
Henry Chillingworth blocked kick
on the twenty-yard line, but Puma
hou man got it and the college
snapped on their own ten-yard line
Lota cleared, but Rice made fail
catch and took the ffteen.yard ad
vance option, and it was during the
lineup after this catch that Henry
made his sensational drop kick, scor
ing four points and making the score
10 to for the High School, where il
remained during the balance of the
game.
