was the out .ofdoors kitchen, a dozen
great caldrons boiling away with rice.
Serving tables-boards nailed on
stakes driven in the ground-are
placed ON each side of the fires, and
busy helpers shoveled rice and fish
into the bowls brought to them in
baskets from the washup tables. There
was great rush and plenty of surface
wafer and smell, hut no confusion and
much good nature. The spirits of the
people have not as yet been broken,
especially when at the tables. The
only sign of lack of accommodations
was at the entrance of the feeding

aggressive, allowing only enough in
at a time to keep the tables filed.
At noon, after the midday rice, some
hundred of the strikers were sent away
from this camp to one at Kakaako. 1t
is understood that there has been much
crowding in the various sleeping quar-
tiers provided, and that the move of
the surplus japanese was in response
to strong hints from the Board of
Health officers. Last night some three
hundred strikers slept in the Asahi
theater.

Japanese Work at Aiea.
About hundred japanese went to
work at Aiea yesterday morning, and
that many more would probably have
been seen in the fields had it not been
for the intimidations of those who are
sticking close to Maxine and his way
of thinking. Other than these, how.
ever, there are few Japanese on the
plantation.
Waipahu is deserted so far as those
of the Nipponese nationality are con.
cerned. Engineer Scoville, who was in
strumenta in quelling what promised
to be a freefor-all fight the other night,
was in town yesterday from the plan
tation, and he stated. that everything
was quiet as could be- Strikebreakers
are working right along, and there is
but little delay in the regular routine
of plantation life.

his Morning Blither.


Maxine handed out the usual line of
bubble-talk yesterday morning, slam
ming the English and japanese news,
papers and calling japanese Consul
General Uyeno butter-in. He stated
that the japanese laborers on every
plantation on the island of Hawaii were
ready to strike at moment S notice,
he, of course, being the one to tell the
time. He said that unless the planters
of this island move towards giving the
laborers some consideration by Monday
afternoon, four thousand japanese, the
number employed ON Hawaii, will walk
out.
Maxine hailed himself as the great
leader, the systematizer, the one who
now holds the whole situation in the
palm of his hand. He said that it was
all like pressing an electric button.
Everything depends on his say-so ac
cording to the selfstyled and self-ap
pointed custodian of the fate of the
Japanese laborers.
He disclosed the momentOus news
that he has met and conversed with
two newspapermen from the Coast, who
had been sent down here to report the
strike. He said that it is no use for
the local press to continue misrepre.
senting things for the mainlanders are
determined to tell the truth. VINO they
are or what papers they represent Ma

All Quiet Down Country.

Reports from the country last night
quiet. At the Honolulu plantation a
few of the strikers were back at work,
about thirty taking up their hoes and
getting back into line with the strike
breakers. Some fifty more are in the
camp and will probably turn out this
morning.
A meeting had been called at Eva,
which Maxine was to have addressed
last night. Owing to his unfortunate
engagement with the High Sheriff, he
had to break the date and the meeting
failed to materialize.

Grill Supplied the Meals.

While the strikers in town are eat
ing rice and fish from rough board
tables, Maxine ct al. sat down to a
dinner served by the Grill and sent over
to the reef in hack. Maxine gets the
bill, but it is a question as to who will
ultimately pay it.

Coates declares that he is the legal

After all the big guns of the club

Even then, however, her gay stunts at.

riage she went the pace at faster
clip than swelldom had seen in it's

she was sent to an insane asylum.

At the time she was sent to the asy-

was in excellent physical condition, all
her old beauty and grace having re-

she went to Europe, and has been less

Morgan likes plain but substantial
things.
He has a private dining room fitted
up in his banking house at Broad and

and during the meal discuss the events

Mr.. Morgan frequently takes small

MISS MARY GOODWIN PINKNEY,
IVA who died at the Hotel Bucking-
ham recently, had spanned the better
part of century. most of the time
here in New York, and had taken care
of high living family on the proceeds
of a $4,000 loan made to her step
father in 1S43.
The published death notice said she
died in her ninety-ninth year. One of
her old associates thought that she
was about 3S when she made her IA
nous loan to her stepfather, and in
return came into possession of half
of Harlem" or, in other words, the
ancient farm of John Delaney, which
her stepfather had bought in 1926 for
$50, 500.
Most of her life she had spen. III the
old Delaney homestead at One Hun
dred and Thirty-ninth street and
Seventh avenue. and she left it for her
winter quarters in the Buckingham
only fortnight before her death.
Miss Pinkney mad been often writ
ten Of as the wealthiest spinster in the
United States and as one of the half
dozen richest women of the country.
Her mail for years had been filed
with letters asking help and criginat-
ing in every part of the land, Her
charities, however, she kept quiet. Her
wealth has been guessed at all the
way from siO.O00,O0O to s60,0Oo,O 900.
Her father, Col Pinkney of the east
ern shore of MARYLAND. was an officer
The Colfax chronicle. [volume] (Colfax, Grant Parish, La.) 1877-1981, 1909-01-09

in the United States army from 1898
until his death in 1926. In her girl
hood she and her mother, Mary Good
win, were Quartered with him at one
time at Fort Niagara.
After her fathers death her mother
married Archibald Watt of this city,
who sreculated in uptown real es-
tate. He was engaged with associates
in project to build a canal from the
Hudson to the East river. He was
driven to the wall through business de-
pressions in the '30s and stood to lose
everything. when Mary Pinkney came
to his rescue by offering him, in con-
junction with her sisters, who died
soon afterward, the $4,000 legacy
from their father for all his real ,es-
tate.
The family continued to live in the
Delaney homestead, the colonial
house still standing on the block
bounded by One Hundred and Thirty
ninth and One Hundred and Fortieth
streets and Seventh and Lenox ave-
nues. There Miss Pinckney had made
her home ever since.
The grounds occupy a whole block,
and up to last summer all the vegeta-
bles which her household required had
been raised on the remnant of the old
farm-probably the most expensive
garden property in the world.
From her mothers marriage with
Watt there was lone son, Thomas
Watt. He married Julia Elizabeth
Hawks, a southern girl resident in
New York and daughter of Bishop
Hawks. Four children resulted from
this union.
From the time of tie transfer of his
property by the elder Archibald Watt
Miss Pinkney provided for the entire
Watt family, giving them at times
whole city blocks.

A new solution of the problem Of
mechanical traction in canals, depend
ing upon the use of automobiles for
towage, on an ordinary tow path. has
been proposed by French engineer.
Ernest Lorin of Doulaincourt. A
writer in La Nature (Paris) notes that
among the present systems of me-
chanical propulsion on canals some
use electricity applied directly to the
boats themselves, and some through
the intermediary of trolleys. Lorin's
plan is of different type entirely.
Says the writer:
HE utilizes an automobile tractor,
built precisely like an ordinary motor

using alcohol, naphtha or steam. The
part played by the automobile Is then
reduced to that Of carrying forward
the cable from mooring to mooring.
Again, the motor on the boat may
be used to drive dynamo whose cur
rent is transmitted to the tractor.
which is then operated by electricity.
1T will thus be seen that various
combinations may be made by the use
of this autotractive device, whose chief
advantage is the realization of speed

PIGS SKIN ON GIRL.

From six to eight square inches of
skin from the back of a little white pig
were grated upon the left side of
Elizabeth Adams. 5 years old, of this
town, Sunday.
This is the first instance of the pig
skin grating known to the medical fra
ternity in this section.
The girl was scalded February 3. so
severely that the skin came off from a
space estimated at twelve 70 fifteen
square inches. In the progress of heal
ing the patient had reached a stage
when skin grating was considered
practical, n the operation was per-
formed by DR.. William t. Knowlton. of
Hubbardston, and DIR. E. S. Lewis, of
Princeton.
The pig. which was 10 days old, was
owned by the Rev. George Bent. and
was chloroformed for the operation,
which lasted three hours. The physi-
clans say they are pleased with the re-
suit Of the operation and are confident
that the outcome will be most success
