SUPER BOOSTS FOR

Dear Mr.. Wood: In thanking you
for the use of 100 of your lantern

the use made of the same. The slides
and literature enabled me to do quite
a bit of boosting for Hawaii, boosting

My first nse of the slides was in
Nevada, Missouri, where I had a good
audience in Weltmer Institute. The
leading paper gave about column of
its first page to an interview on the
islands, and also reported the lecture.

University of Missouri under the
auspices of the University, and again
had a good audience and good news.

nected with the institution seven years
bringing quite few friends out to
hear my story. The next week
lectured in st. Paul s. church in St.

about $50 or 200 people.

in Denver, and spoke on the mission

No More Khaki.

Khaki cloth has been discarded as a
uniform for Uncle Sam 8 soldiers, and
an olive drab cotton cloth has been
adopted in its stead.
Competition for the contract of sup
plying about 100000 yards of olive
drab cotton cloth for uniforms every
year is earnestly sought by the War
Department.
Several years. experience convinced
the army quartermasters that Ameri-
can made khaki, was not suitable for
military purposes. 1t was designed as
uniform for service in the tropics.
After long trial it was officially re-
ported as not equal to the English.made
khaki worn in India and the East and
Objectionable because of its weight and
warmth and its failure to hold its color.
Not desiring to purchase the Eng
lish-made khaki, the quartermasters en-
tered upon series of tests for suit
able cloth obtainable from American
factories. Finally, by the use of a
combination of dyes of indanthreue,
blue, yellow and violet, result was
obtained that met the severe require.
ments of the service, both as to color
and fabric.

TWELVE CHINESE BOYS
ORDERED DEPORTED

The writ of habeas corpus in the
case of the three Chinese boys whose
attorney, w. w. Thayer, was trying TO
prevent their deportation to their ma.
tive land, was dismissed yesterday af-
ternoon by Judge Dole after he had
listened to the evidence in the case.
The contention of the petitioner was
that the boys had not had fair trial
before the immigration Commissioners,
but the judge concluded from the evi.
dence given that they had nothing to
complain of and that the immigration
authorities were right in refusing them
a landing.
1t was claimed by the petitioner,
KEN Yam Tim, that the three boys
were born in Honolulu but had been
living in China for some years. They
arrived here recently and were refused
landing by the immigration authori-
ties, who did not believe the story of
their being Hawaiian born.
Immediately upon the order of the
judge being given, dismissing the writ
of habeas corpus, X, l.. Halsey and Dis
trict Attorney Breckons called up the
immigration station and ordered the
three boys. Hoo Chan, Hoo Dang and
Hoo Sang, rushed down to the Mon.
gola and shipped to China on her. Their
stay in America was very brief.

STRENGTH FOR
THE STOMACH
A Philadelphia Man Tells What the
Tonic Treatment Did
For Him.

The experience of sufferers from
stomach trouble, who have tried the
tonic treatment with DIR. Williams
Pink Pills, has been that their trouble
has disappeared as soon as the blood
was made pure. The numerous disor-
ders of the stomach, as catarrh of the
stomach, acid stomach, nervous dyspep-
STA, neuralgia of the stomach, gastritis,
and lack of tone, have the same under
lying cause--impure blood. In each
case the stomach is weak. DIR. Will
liams' Pink Pills supply the stomach
with the strength it needs by enriching
and purifying the blood. Pure blood
gives tone to the nerves, muscles, and
glands of the stomach and makes it
able to properly perform the work of
digestion.

says:

The safe-blowing at Puposky was
an exceedingly bold and fearless
affair, and the very methods used by
the yeggmen shows that they were
no novices in the art of using nitro
glycerine and fuses.
O. J. Laqua, owner of the general
store and postoffice which was
robbed. was in Bemidji this fore
noon and he tells a dramatic tale
of the safe-blowing and the bold acts
of the robbers.
Mr.. Laqua states that he heard a
mufled report at about 2:3O this
morning and his wife yelled to him
that robbers had blown the safe in
the store, where general merchan
disc is handled and where the
Puposky postofice is located.
Mr.. Laqua rushed down stairs i1
time to see two men running down
the street toward the depot. He
grabbed a shotgun he had and FREQ
two shots at the retreating men, whe
fired back with shots from revolvers
