stout pastspoard boxes boxes will do.
Scrupulous housekeepers have dis
covered various simple devices to
avoid the unsightly conglomeration Of
shoes. slippers and waterproofs In the
closet. Perhaps the most desirable
arrangement Is that Of denim GOV.
cred box with lid and three compart.
ments for shoes. leggins and rubbers
respectively. This can easily be fitted
into one end OF the closet and lightly
nailed to the floor.
Another good device consists of q
piece Of colored canvas with q wide
hem and six capacious pockets. into
which shoes and slippers are inserted
perpendicularly. This Is hung square
ly against the inside Of the closet door
or against the closet wall. where there
Is some vacant space.
A closet Is not entirely commodious
unless 1t offers some good receptacle
for laundried shirtwaists-which, of
course. should not be hung up with
coat hangers among the colored gowns
nor slowed away in a dresser among
a variety Of other articles
Where the shallow drawers OF the
chiffonier are not available, q dry
goods box Nnning the length of the
closet floor, lined with white and COW
cred with dark material. can be readily
converted into roomy shirt-waist box
that is not In the least in the way.

AS BAD. AS THE SOUTH.
What an Illinois Republican Paper
Says About Lynching.

The Springfield, ILL.,, Republican
SAYS if the South ever yelled up
more horrible story of human sav-
agery than comes from Cairo, Ill.,,
we do not recall it. Indeed, it is
impossible that any Southern COM
munity could have done SO; for how
surpass in deviItry and bloodthirst-
ness the hanging and shooting and
burning of the victim, the soaking
of pieces Of rope In his blood, the
beheading and parade OF the head'
and the cutting out Of the heart and
chipping it into pieces for souvenirs?
The only redeeming feature, as the
New York Evening Post observes, is
that the mob did not stick to the
color line. It butchered white
murderer, too, or one charged with
murder. 1t is altogether as revolt
ing an exhibition of human degrada-
ton as the country ever saw, OF as
Illinois ever saw, and Illinois has
Of late been giving several eXhibi-
tions OF the kind. The case with
which the public authority broke
down is particularly discreditaole
feature of the case. That spectacle
of the sheriff fleeing with the priso-
nor through woods and over hills,
with the mob in full pursuit-ho~
hollow is shown to be the pretenslon
of Cairo to civilization worthy OF
the name! We are now TO see
whether the State of Illinois can pre-
tend to anything much better
whether the ringleaders of this
blood-hunting mob Of men and wo-
men are to escape all punishment
fitting to their capital crime, as IN
the case of other Illinois moos OF
this character.

President Of Southern Says World

President Finley of the SoutE4:n

ing Of folk from the countryside

later speaking at banquet of ine
board of trade, expressed the convic-
ton that in no area of equal extent

States. and urged me farmers not 20
neglect the cultivation of cotton.
I'VE may well look forward to a
time in the not far distant future, +"
said Mr. Finley, when the world
will call on the American cotton
planters for 2O,0OO,OO0 bales every
year"
MIR. Finley said he did not view
with any alarm the tendency of
young people to leave the farm, but
said he believed the increased at
fractions of farm life would soon
turn the tide in the other direction.
"1n viewing the figures" said Mr.
Finley, ut is not to be wondered
that those responsible for the man
agement of the railways of the South,
seeing the agricultural advance go
ing hand in hand with the indus
trial development, should have faith
in their territory and should be striv-
ing to the utmost to increase the
carrying capacity of their lines SO
rs to be able to properly handle the
increase in traffic which is sure to
come
Mr.. Finley did not counsel the
growing of cotton to the neglect OF
other crops. but suggested that an
increase In production to keep pace
with the demand of the world and
that 1t be accomplished by more
intense cultivation and by the grow
ing of a variety of other crops with
cotton. to the profit of the farmer.

SUGAR FRAUD EXPOSED
FORMER GOVERNMENT SAMPLER
is DISCHARGED
From the Service Because he Tried,
Seven Years Ago, to Secure an

Investigation.
Some ricsh and racy evidence is
being brought out in the investiga-
ton of the frauds perpetrated on the
government by the members of the
Sugar Trust, now going on in New
York.
On Wednesday Henry C. Corsa,
who once was employed as Gov
ernment sampler at the American
Sugar Refining Company's docks in
Jersey City, has added further inter-
esting material to the complicated
controversy surrounding the frauds
charged to the company and various
customs officials and employees.
Corsa was discharged from the
Government service seven years ago
by reason, as he believes, Of his eff
forts to obtain an Investigation. In
a lengthy interview he reviews the
obstacles he met, and recites expe-
riences similar in many respects to
those of Richard Parr and Edwin
Anderson, who are defending their
respective claims to being the origi-
nal exposers of corruption in the GUS
toms house.
Wilber F. Wakeman. a former ap-
praiser, brought Corsa's name into
the case some time ago, when he at
tested to the fact of his discharging
after he had brought to the govern
ment's attention convincing evidence
of graft, which Corsa says was sue
cessfully pigeonholed after he was
ousted. His efforts to obtain re-
instatement Corsa adds, were aided
from time to time by Leslie M. Shaw,
former Secretary of the Treasury,
and other prominent men, but none
of them, he declares, was able to
overcome the grip the Sugar Com
pany had on the New York customs
service, or to get for him the en-
dorsement of George Whitehead, who
succeeded Wakeman as appraiser.
In his interview of few days ago
Corsa set forth that he went to
Washington to present his case to
Secretary Shaw. and the latter, he
says, after a long conference, said:
"I'll see that you are put back. l
could demand it right new. But.
things are working so smoothly be-
tween Mr.. Whitehead and myself
that I don't want to break in abrupt
ily on him with this demands
A short time afterward, according
to Corsa, he received a letter from
Mr.. Shaw stating that Shaw found
his hands to tied that he could do
nothing. Corsa says his evidence
against the Sugar Company was to
the effect that agents of the compa-
ny had offered him bribes in return
for his assistance in substituting
sugar of a low grade in samples
taken by the government for. tests
upon which cargoes were appraised.
As a part Of this evidence, he turned
over to his superiors the money CIV
en- him as bribe.
Richard Parr, who is still deputy
surveyor of the port. said that re-
cent Investigations have shown that
one man in every FIVE among the
employees in the weighers' division
of the New York customs house has
been found implicated in the frauds
or is under suspicion of the most
positive character"

CONVENT SOON
IN NEW HOME
Confined from Page One.1


Honolulu wing Of the main floor con-
tains the Sisters refectory, pupils re-
fectory, and community room. The Gen.
ter portion contains the offices of the
principal and four paTlors. The other
wing contains the assembly hall and
class rooms The rooms in this wing
can all be thrown in together.
The center part of the upper floor is
given over.to the dormitory. This great
room overlooks Palelo valley, and is
particularly bright and attractive. The
wing toward Honolulu contains the in
Urinary for the Sisters and the chapel.
The chapel is one of the features of
the building. It win accommodate 20O
persons and is remarkably attractive.
The altar, which is Of stucco, was made
by the De Prato company of Chicago
and is now on its way here. The
Bishop has given two statues, while
while Father Valentin has raised the
money to purchase two more. They
represent the Sacred Hearts, the I'm
maculate Conception and st. Joseph.
The communion rail is one of the
most attractive features Of the chapel
and was selected with especial care.
Adjoining the chapel is the vestry.
The other wing of the building is
given over to classrooms. These are all
very light and are supplied with ample
ventilation. The dormitory for the
Sisters is in back of that occupied by
the pupils.
The basement is divided into music
practise rooms, large playroom fol-
wet weather, bathrooms and laundry
"a l I
to showers.
All of the sleeping apartments and
dormitories are provided with private
baths, and every modern convenience
has been included in the general equip
ment.
The convent will be presided over by
eleven Sisters of the Order of the
Sacred Hearts. Sister Constantine will
act as principal. There will be accom-
modations for two hundred pupils, as
well as number of day pupils. APP
plieations have already been received
on a large scale.
This year the Sisters celebrated the
fftieth anniversary of their arrival in
Hawaii, and the half century point
marks distinct epoch in their work
here. Though the old convent has fire.
quently been remodeled, the site which
it occupies is the site of the original
school founded by the Sisters on their
arrival here. Thus the change to Kai
muki is the first move which the Sisters
have made.
The Bishop has taken an active in
terest in the new convent, and has Wis
tied it almost daily. Many of the val
liable points incorporated in the build
ing are the results of his suggestions.
