 It will lie about six feet under the water as we move" said Pedro, hauling in the sheet and showing over the rudder as the boat again got under way "The aguja always travels, as we say, between two waters"
 The angler soon realized that he had tackled no easy job, as, sitting in the waist of the boat he was forced to hold both his body and rod in a cramped po- sition. But this could not be remedied, for the swift current prevented rowing and it was necessary for Pedro to sit in the sterm.
 Silently the boat sailed along. the drag on the line bending slightly the rod, while Pedro, leaning over the side, kept his eyes on the bottom, intent upon every moving shadow. With thumb pressed against the leather brake the angler tried hard to look unconcerned. for some how he felt that his ability as a fisher man would soon be put to the test An hour dragged by and just as his nerves were beginning to get under control Pedro slowly strengthened himself in his seat and motioning to the water, whis- pered:
 "Cuidado, ahora, senor' Cacarefully. now'D and drew the sheet a trifie closer The next second, and despite the pres- sure on the brake, the wheel began to spin in an alarming manner. The fish had hooked himself, for not a motion had the angler made
 Easy, senor, DOT Dios, let him have his head! Let him have his head! He's sounding" cried Pedro in alarm as the angler tried to stop the wild song of the reel.
 Fifty yards of line flew out like magic, then more slowly 10 or 15 went and then the reel stopped. The watch on the ang- ler's wrist marked 6:20 'Is he off?" the American asked, not daring to move the rod. of? No, senor. If your line and stick will hold he will never get off that hook. Keep tho line taut while I lower the sail, and then you may take my seat, for we will now have to follow him with the oars''

rendered possible the production of Syrup
OF Figs and Elixir of SIENNA, in all of it's

its wholesome and refreshing Syrup of

As there is only one genuine Syrup of

Tho annual report of DR.. Leon S.
Merrill Of Scion, the State dairy in
.s,,o,or connected with the depart
aant Of agriculture, which has been
ga with the Governor and Council,
.'.o,oc in its opening that the work of
,ho dairy division during the past year
has been for the Improvement of the
,,rodpctiye qualities of our dairy ami
,naIs Continuing it says:
.Wl1en the dairy testing work was
first undertaken, it was considered ad-
y,sable to only attempt the organiza-
ton of two or at the most three ASSOC
Citations during the first year. as the
nlan for carrying it on ought to he well
developed in detail before being placed
in extensive operation. 1t is we'll that
such a course was adopted, for many
changes have been made in the record
blanks and in some phases of the work.
'Tht real purpose Of COW test as
ISOLATION is to determine the dairy
value Of the Individual animal and the
full scope of the work can best be I'M
derstood when we consider that dairy
ing ir its broadcast sense is not only the
the reproduction and the Improvement
Of The dairy herd.
"The work of the department is es-
sentially extension work and while Wis
its to individual farmers, as in the in
spection Of diaries, are of great value,
yet the large number of farmers In the
State and the small amount of avail
able funds at the disposal of the de-
partment Drecludes individual work
to any great extent. With this fact in
mind it has been felt that public meet
ings offer splendid opportunities for
placing the plans OF the department
before a large number of people and
making it possible to leave behind a
concrete force for carrying out the
plans outlined
During the year many requests
have come to the dairy division for lee
lures upon matters of dairy interest
and so far as possible these Invitations
nave been accepted.
Following the above general plan 81
ect1Tes have been delivered before
Oranges, cow test associations, the
rreamerymen's Association. farmers
Institutes and special dairy meetings.
md in addition lectures were delivered
n the Farmers Week course at the
Maine Agricultural College on Cow
Fest Associations and before the

his division for the year is as follows:

Nice Show at Opera House.

Good sized audiences at both after
noon and evening performances of the
moving pictures and vaudeville were
thoroughly well pleased if one is to
judge by the usual signs evident at
public play houses during and after a
performance. The pictures that were
exhibited are classed among the best
seen here and include the following
good subjects: THE Man House
Maid" Man With Throat Cut" 'On

class, are receiving merited applause

made from an old jib, and the Mokolii
and some help.
Wednesday morning the Mokolii and
the James Makee, the latter with a
deck load of coal, started back to ko-
kua the drifting vessel.
They found her in bad lee drift
with the wind blowing strongly and had
a hard time to pass cables. The Makee
took the first WARP and passed another
one to the Mokolii. The waves were
high and the swell was running with
much snubbing of cable and hard
time for both the towsmiths.
A Heavy Incubus.
Meanwhile the Nordsee was drag
cling nearly hundred tons of iron
chain and anchor. But, with great
effort, the two tuggers managed to get
her into the lee of Waianae Here
was smooth water and it was hoped
that the anchors would catch. But the
water was too deep.
The captain of the Nordsee hailed that
he wanted the Makee to hoist iron with
her steam winch. He said that his
winch was busted,
They tried this but there was moth
ing doing. To hoist that weight of
metal meant a strong metal hawser and
there was too much swell to pass it.
Then Johnny Scott sang out to cut
cable and make for a harbor. The had
nothing to cut chain with aboard the
ship, so dinghy was lowered and the
captain himself came aboard and Dor
rowed hack saw with oil and several
extra blades.
From II O'Clock yesterday morning
until nearly 2 clock they worked on
that chain, which hung from the bow
of the vessel down to where the an
chors swayed five hundred yards below.
They had tackle on each side to rre-
vent accident and. when the man with
the saw gave the final thrust, he had
to leap back to save himself from a
blow from the jumping chain.
Towed to Anchorage.
lReiieved of her incubus of hanging
chain and anchor, the Nordsee respond
ed to the pull Of the tugs and she was
gradually brought back against the
wind. until she was in water shoal
enough for the Makee to drop anchor
and leave her swaying astern.
Eben Low, the man whose genius
made the Retrieving of the ship
possible, came ashore in the Mokolii
and tried to tell how it all happened.
The last words he was heard to say
We're "And Johnny Scott worked like
-" and then a large, deep snore.
For three days trying to salvage a
vessel Without sleep, without rest, al
ways on the qui vive, working their
muscles to death and taking all the
chances of a deep-sea tow. the men
who worked to bring the big vessel
back TO port have performed a really
wonderful feat and one that Honolulu
should be proud of.
