Especial CORRESPONDENCE

Trenton, March 4.-After wrestling
oyer six weeks with the financial prob.
lem of the state the special joint COM
mittee of the legislature finally made
up it's mind what it wanted to recon-
mend for the purpose of averting the
threatened deficit in the states treas
ury and submitted its report to both
houses.
After reciting the resolutions of both
houses under which they were ap-
pointed the members of the commit
tee set forth that after consulting with
the comptroller they find that the pro-
spective deficiency, should the appropri-
atoms of the session equal those of last
year, will be approximately $650,000.
They do not believe that any necessity
exists for a state tax and declare that
the act of 1906 should not be repealed
The increase in the states evenu
required, they believe, can be effected
by a r~evaluation of railroad property or
other property on which a tax is now
paid and the imposition in accordance
with law of a tax IN any rolling stock
within the state a portion Of each year
and on which no tax is imposed and
by a revision Of the franchise tax now
paid by miscellaneous corporations.
They recommend that these items
heretofore appropriated from the state
treasury should be charged against
the money derived from railroad taxes
under the law of 1906, as they are in
support of the educational system of
the state.

THOUGH FATALLY HURT,
THOUGHT Of OTHERS

LIHUE, Kauai, January 16.-Ochio
Shirashi died last Tuesday as the re-
suit of frightful burns she received the
previous day.
Ochio was young girl about four
teen years of age who was employed
by Mrs. Sanborn of Hanalei to look
after her children. Last Monday
night, after the children had been car
ried upstairs and put to bed, Mrs. San
born went over to the postofice to
attend to the outgoing mail, Mr.. San
born, the postmaster at Hanalei, being
away from home. Ochio was left
downstairs reading. All of a sudden
the lamp famed up, and Ochio, becom-
ing alarmed, tried to put out the light
by covering it with a piece of cloth.
In doing so she upset the lamp and oil
was spilled on her dress, which in a
moment was afre. In a panic she
rushed out in the yard, where at the
called for Mrs. Sanborn.
The latter Immediately set to work
to extinguish the fire, and succeeded
but not until all the clothes the poor
victim had on had been burned, actual
" roasting the flesh. In spite of her
frightful suffering, Ochio thought OF
the children left in the house and
begged Mrs. Sanborn to save them, as
the house was on fire.
While the lamp had rolled to the
floor and the oil was burning, the
woodwork had not yet caught fire when
Mrs. Sanborn arrived, and she soon
succeeded in quelling the flames by aid
of rugs. After telephoning for the
doctor, she again turned her attention
to the poor girl and did what she could
to alleviate her sufferings.
Doctor Yanagihara arrived within
short time, but could do nothing but
ease the pains of the victim, realizing
the impossibility of saving her life
AS mentioned above, she died. Tuesday
afternoon after twentyfour hours OF
intense suffering.
Ochio was an exceptionally nice
girl. born and grown up in Hanalel
where she was well known and gener
ally liked by all.

MYSTERIOUS FIRE ON
NJ bRYDE PLANTATION


LIHUE, Kauai, January 16.-The
fire signals sent every man to his feet
over in Wahiawa last Thursday night,
and the thick smoke drifting across
the sky soon told that danger was
threatening the cane fields.
fine patch of cane was found to
be ablaze in the Wahiawa section of
the McBryde plantation, and owing to
the fact that the nearest camp was
some distance from the scene cf dan
ger, the fire managed to make quite a
Roadway before a sufficient force of
cane-cutters could be brought into ac.
ton. After two hours fighting, the
fire was at last extinguished, after
having run over some thirty-fve to
forty acres. AS the cane was ripe and
was to have been harvested within a
short time, the loss is considerable.
The place where the fire occurred is
situated at least a quarter of a mile
from the nearest railroad track, and
the cause can therefore not be traced
to sparks from an engine. Either
carelessness with cigarette stubs on the
part of the labOrers or incendiarism
would account for the fire, but as there
had been no work performed in that
particular field for some time, the lat
ter cause seems to be the real one.

saAie OF whiskey protruding from his

Chinatown section and occasionally took
a pull at the bottle.
Finally, he ran into a man named
Miller, formerly a letter carrier, to
whom the strange looking military man
offered a drink. Miller took the bottle
and surveyed the stranger intently. He
opened the bottle and apparently took
nip.

He escorted him to the receiving clerk s

LOWER FARES
On RAILROAD
O. r. al. Co. Makes Cut in
Rates Over the Entire
System.

The Oahu Railway and Land Com
pany has had in contemplation the re-
duction of passenger rates for some
time, and is about to publish list of
reduced fares all over the system to
take effect ON and after March / next.
The schedule of rates is being issued
now in accordance with a requirement
of the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion, which demands that the proposed
schedule be on file at the Interstate
Bureau in Washington thirty days be-
fore it becomes effective here.
The new rates are based on three
cents per mile, frst-class single fares;
21a cents per mile, .second-class single
fares, and 212 cents per mile, frst-class
second-class return.
This is a voluntary reduction on the
part of the railroad company, which is
taking this action of it's own volition
as it has done in the past, without any
direct request from the travelling pub
lie.
When the Wahiawa branch was es
tablished, a. high rate per mile was
adopted on that section, but now the
company has brought the Wahiawa
branch in the same rate arrangement
as is in vogue ON other parts of the
line. For example, the rate has been
cut ON the Wahiawa trip from $1.75
to $1.25, frst-class, and second class
from $1.55 to- $1.00.
As an instance of the cut on the
main line, the original fare from Homo
lulu to Eva, frst-class, was $1.75. The
rate has been gradually scaled down
until the new March schedule makes
the rate 90 cents, and this without a
request of any kind being made of
the company. 1t has been the policy
of the company to carry larger mum
Der of passengers at the smaller rate
than smaller number at a greater
rate.
The old and the new rates, rounG
trip, from Honolulu, are as follows:

JAPANESE SHOOTING
IN PUMA DISTRICT

A Japanese tragedy occurred at Pa
hoa, in the Puma district of Hawaii,
on the night of Thursday last, when
Hirata, owner of a grocery store, shot
and killed Terada, who keeps confec-
tionery store in the neighborhood of
Hirata' S place. Terada was shot in
the throat and his condition, accord
ing to last reports, was very serious.
He was taken to Hilo and placed in
the care of a japanese doctor.
From what facts are to hand it ap-
pears that the shooting was accidental.
1t appears that Hirata entertained his
friend Arimizu on the night of the
tragedy, and that the latter decided to
stay with his friend overnight. Hi
rata, being short of bedclothes, went
over to Terada' S house to borrow some.
AS the latter was taking the clothes
from the closet he came across his re-
volver, which was loaded, and, show
ing it to Hirata, asked him if he
wanted to buy it.
Hirata took the gun from Terada,
and while examining it the weapon
was discharged and Terada was shot
IN the neck.
Hirata was arrested and is being
held pending a thorough investigation
of the shooting
