Maxine and His Coterie Placed Once
More on Trial---One Higher Wage
Collector Uses Knife.

The rearrest of the strike leaders
on additional charges of conspiracy,
the arrest at Punaluu, Koolaupoko, of
a strike fund collector for a vicious
assault on a japanese who refused to
contribute for the cause, and the going
to work of few of the strikers at the
Waipahu plantation were the develop
ments in the strike situation yesterday
The assault at Punaluu, while an out
come of the strike, was man to man
fight, not a mob attack as was reported
around the streets, while the assaulter
was captured by Japanese and turned
over to the authorities. Both the as
saulter and the assaulted were brought
into town yesterday by Sheriff Jarrett,
together with three witnesses. All were
taken to the Jail; the assaulter to be
held for trial, the assaulted to have
his wounds attended to, and the wit
nesses to be held until wanted. The
wounded man has several severe slashes
across the legs and lower part of the
body, but is in no danger.
I'll. Numata, the japanese who dared
refuse to contribute to the strike fund,
is a luna on the Koolau railroad, a
particularly well liked employee of the
railroad company. His assailant, the
official collector of the Higher Wage
Association, is Tsugawara, who has
reputation as a gambler and thor
oughly low down character. On Friday
night he met Numata and solicited
money for the strikers. Numata re-
fused to contribute and an argument
started, the collector jeering at the luna
and haunting him with, being traitor
TO his country and his countrymen.
Finding that his taunt failed to have
the effect of forcing Numata to con-

One Machine Runs Into
and Smashes a
Buggy.

, Through the almost criminally care
less driving of Chauffeur Manuel Silva
automobile number 34S, three lives
were imperilled last night, his machine
being driven full tilt into the back
of buggy, in which j. A. R. Vieira,
his sister, Mrs. Vincent Fernandez, and
his little daughter were driving The
buggy was wrecked, the horse knocked
down and dragged and the automobile
trife damaged. None of the oeeu-
pants of the buggy were injured al
though shaken up in body and nerves.
The accident happened on the Wal
kiki road, short distance on the town
side of the Seaside Hotel, at half past
eight o clock, and was witnessed by a
large number of persons on a street
ear, waiting on the switch a hundred
feet away. The buggy, according to
Mr.. Vieira s statement, substantiated
by the statements of spectators, was
being driven Waikiki, on he right side
of the road and about eight feet from
the sidewalk The automobile came up
behind it, no signal being given. 1t

GEORGE H. FAlRCHILD'S BIG
YIELD FROM KAUAI GARDEN

months I usually experience more
trouble from pests and heat so find
it more profitable to fallow the garden
and rlow in manure at the rate of
ten to twenty tons per acre. Re
ferring to the onions, would advise
planting the onions for market in Oc-
tober, and then they will come in to
market about January to May during
which time the price is highest
AS you have been a small farmer
advocate I have addressed you in this
matter thinking you may know of
some one IN the vicinity of Honolulu
who might make a good thing on a
crop of onions. Tell him to keep his
onions in the ground until the tops
die and then dry them out thoroughly
on an absolutely dry surface exposed
to good warm sunlight with no
chance of dew or rain wetting them
above or below during the drying pro-
cess. Tell him to prepare his soil
with well rotted manure al the rate
OF ten to twenty tons per acre before
transplanting For three months we
have bought no onions from Honolulu.
all the trade in this district having
been supplied with the results Of this
experiment If this information viii
aid any citizen in making a start in
supplying the Hawaiian market with
home grown onions, it will have been
worth while.
Yours truly.
