DISCOVERS DECEASED
HUSBAND DEFRAUDED

Kaahanui Lopez has, according to
what is stated in her complaint in
the suit she has brought in the Circuit
court against G. M. v. Forster and
others, made the unpleasant discovery
after the death of the husband she
trusted that he swindled her during
his lifetime and did her out of her
property through her inability to I'M
derstand English.
The complaint alleges that in Feb
ruary, 1905, she and her husband, An
tonic Lopez, signed some papers trans
ferring certain land to the defendant.
She was informed by her husband that
she was merely relinquishing her
dover rights, but after his death last
year she discovered that she had sign
ed away lands of her own at Laha-
ina. Now she asks the court to re-
form the deed and restore TO her the
lands she lost.

Should Remember GEORGE Dixon.

Ever since Jack Johnson broke into
the major league ranks of pugilism
they tell as many stories on the dusky
fighter as If he were some prominent
man in politics. The latest one sounds
good, but we'll all down it with a
grain of salt. George Little, Johnson's
manager, is responsible for it. "Do you
know?" said Little, that Johnson pays
more money when he sends tele.
gram to his mother than he would for
months rent in Chicago? Jack is a
poor letter writer, and when his moth.
er sends him a letter, instead of writ.

as many words in it as he would put

Johnson would do well to remember
that George Dixon, once featherweight
champion, squandered fortune and
died pauper.

Joe Tinker, shortstop OF tho CHI

Most interesting of all the several

After discussing the merits of the

The quantity of any one of these

demand for lumber is not diminishing.
All that the forests and planted lots

Pounds

AS the list shows, the three heaviest
freight producing crops are cabbage,
onions and potatoes. Lumber is
fourth. Up to the present time timber
has been cut almost exclusively from
wild land, without much regard to the
acres gone over. But the time is
coming when the !ieid of wood per
acre will be calculated as carefully as
the yield of corn, and as much thought
will be given to growing it, though
not as much work. How much wood
grows on an acre in year?
Some of the abused, burnt, washed
and neglected lands are producing
only little. 1t has Eeen estimated that
the typical hardwood regions of Ten
nessee, where fir is kept out, are
growing about 5000 POUNDS of wood
yearly per acre. Gaod stands of young
pines in other parts of the country are
probably doing al well or better. But
this is not the l.Tnit, for foresters say
woodland can do much better under
forestry methods. Good timber must
be selected, the Ioor cut out, just as

"WHAT MAKES

The following article from the cur
rent number of Trade, q leading mer-
chants Journal, applies to Wabeno as
we'll as any other town:
What makes . town, anyway? Is
it the wealth evidenced by fine homes
and splendid store buildings? These
may attest the stability and thrift of
certain people, but they offer no great
inducements TO commercial and moral
progress. Is it the spirit of good order
and law observance? That is factor
only. The sleepiest old hamlets that
dot the map have this spirit in rank
abundance. Is it the schools and
churches? May their number ever in
crease, but they don't make a town
they only culture it. Is it the geo
graphical location, the character OF the
country surrounding, the shipping
facilities, the natural advantages?
None of these are essential. Well,
what is it tina. makes a town, anyway?
Just one thing-the unity OF the peo-
pie, the existance of q common bond
which causes business and social
enemies to put aside all differences
when it comes TO boosting town. No
town ever made real progress on the
way to substantial success without the
gst-togsther spirit unanimously adopt
cd. 1t has rejuvinated old hulks of
towns that were yawning their way to
endless sleep. 1t has infused new life
blood into the heart of commercial
life and made thriving cities out of
paralytic villages. Natural advantag-
ss count for much and prosperity can
not be built on shifting sand, but any
town with half chance can be made
to grow and expand and thrive when
its citizens join with one accord in the
boosting program"
