From the Centre Hall Pa Re
porter, we clip the following: "Mrs
George Zcigler, of Farmville, Virgin
ia, after visiting her cousins, John +.
Zeigler and Mrs. Alice :. Bartges, at
Altoona, is spending a few weeks
among relatives in this county, among
them being her husbands brother,

n. Zeigler, of Madisonburg; Jonathan
Krape, Of Aaronsburg; Mrs. {. r.
Neff and Mrs. :. \. Krape, of Centre
Hall. Mrs. Xeigler is a typical lady
of the "Old Dominion" State, in
speech and manner exemplifying the
spirit and refinement of the Southern
people. Her stories and anecdotes OF
the natives are quite interesting. This
is her first visit to Pennsylvania but
her impressions of the people and
beautiful homes and farms seen IN
this valley are very favorable"
The buds of Spring never return

Governor Mckinney was leading

witness he relied upon to defend the

and honor, while the witness who was
to break the will was man OF bad
reputation in the community in which
he lived. After the evidence was all
in and the Governor BEGAN to speak

the two witnesses and compared the

One custom was to do as in this
case, work out the play on the stage
The other custom was the ancient way
in which the actors took everything

They were willing to accept the mo-
diflcations as suggested by witness.
There was no rehearsal. Witness was
not an actor and gave them no assist
ance in presenting the play. There
was but one performance of 1t. lasting
two nights.
Negoro was thirty minutes late the

first act was secondhand information,

HAGA is WARNED
OF ASSASSINATION
ASSOCIATE EDITOR OF HAWAII sHNPo
SAGE THAT HE is NEXT TO BE DONE BECAUSE NEWS
PAPERS OPPOSITION HIGHER WAGE ASSOCIATIONS CAM
PAGN-PoLICE PROTECTION.

A warning has been received at the
office of the Hawaii Shinpo, the Jap
anese daily newspaper of which Sheba,
whom yesterday Mori attempted to
murder, is the editor, TO the effect
that X. Haga, the associated editor,
is to be the next victim and that soon
he is to be laid low by the hand of
vengeance
How this warning was received is
but an illustration of the roundabout
methods employed by those who de-
sire to strike terror to the sober
Japanese who are by pen and
word of mouth endeavoring TO inspire
common sense in the minds of that
element of the Japanese looking for
trouble over the strike situation
An employe of the Hawaii Shinpo
reported to the editor in charge that
he had been informed by another Jap
anese that he, Haga, was To be the
next victim and that the death blow
would fall in his neck when he least
expected it. Questioned as to who
was the Japanese who had so inform
ed the employe of the Shinpo, the
employe was at a loss, or at least
appeared to be at a loss TO describe
him, saying he would know him if he
saw him again, but that the informa-
tion was given him in such a way
that, while he was impressed with
the fact, it did not occur to him TO
identify his informant. He does not
know his name, bur believes that the
strange Japanese spoke as If he knew
more than he told.

fine SHAPE.
EDWARD M WALSH, FORMERLY MANAGER PAIA AND MAKA-
WELL PLANTATIONS VISITS LoC PROPERTY ENTHU-
sAsTIC-WAHIAWA DAM sHO WING RESULTS PREDICTS THAT
CROP LARGER THAN PRESENT SEASONS

Edward NJ. Walsh, formerly manager
of the Paia and MakaweH plantations,
who has retired from business and is
down here on visit, made a trip to
Waialua yesterday and when he re-
turned was enthusiastic over the pre-
sent condition and future outlook of
the property. Coming from a man
who is well posted in all the ins and
outs of the sugar industry the follow
ing remarks made to Star reporter
should be of interest:
Yes, Waialua looks very well in
deed. Everything down there is run
ming along very smoothly aud one
would never know that there was a
strike i'm progress on the island The
mill is turning out in the neighbor-
hood Of a thousand tons of sugar each
week and the grinding should be com
pleted about the last of this month.
The Wahiawa dam, of course, has
been the greatest factor in the pros
perity OF the plantation. Till it was
built and water could be brought down
from this source there was large
stretch of land which would produce
no cane and divided the two parts on
which cane was being grown. Now,
with water in plenty, the plantation is
compact and the work can be handled
to a much greater advantage.
'On reaching the station l was met
by Manager Goodale in an automobile
and we first went up to the dam. There
is seventy feet of water there now,
more than at this time in any previous

year and the head is such that, as Mr.
Goodale tells me, it would develope
one hundred and fifty horse power,
which he hopes to utilize later on In
going to the dam we passed through
three miles of cane which was in fine
condition. The young cane looks very
well indeed and the outlook for next
year is very promising. The acreage
next year l understand will he slight
ly more than this year and | eXpecs
that the crop would be larger then than
now.
Il went all through the mill and
found it to be q compact plant, in ex-
cellent condition. The plantation is
lucky in that Mr.. GoOdale is both an
inside and an outside man, having had
experience as a sugar boiler, as wel as
in the regular work of planting and
growing cane. The prosperity of the
plantation is of course due to the dam
and it seems 20 me that everything is
in the best of condition there.
while rose bamboo, and yellow Ca
ledonia are growing in considerable
quantities, believe that Lahaina cane
is the favorite on the Waialua planta-
tion, being better suited to the soil
OF course, in the short visit that
made. could say nothing about this

tion from others in a rather indefinite
manner. was very much pleased

sary. Nor is he the only onicer OF
the Hawaii Shinpo who is thus pre-
pared.
Haga is, apparently. not the only
remaining Japanese who has been
threatend. The Japanese Consul is
said to have been threatened, and
there are also unidentifable rumors
TO the effect that the Job that Mori
failed 10 complete, will be completed
at later date by some other; in
other words that the threat to Kill
Sheba will be carried out eventually.
The Office of the Hawaii Shinpo will
henceforth be guarded AMI Sheba,
when he comes out of hospital, will be
given the protection of special police.
Meanwhile, Assassin Mori, while not
languishing by any means Is in a cell
where he can do no harm,

According to what was said i'll open
court this morning, although no names
were mentioned, the prosecution in the
strike conspiracy trial may utilize the
moral effect of the murderous assault
on Editor Sheba through the medium
of evidence.
Before the court opened there was a
conversation between Judge De Bolt,
Mr.. Kinney for the prosecution and
Mr. Lightfoot for the defense, which is
held as confidential.
Mr. Lightfoot, when court opened
moved that the jury be instructed to
disregard the events Of yesterday and
published reports thereof.
Mr. Kinney acquiesced but signifi-
cantly remarked that he might bring
the matter before the jury at a later
stage in the form OF evidence.
Judge De Bolt, granting the motion,
informed the jurors that they should
observe the terms OF their oath, which
required them to form their verdict on
the law and the evidence.
Editor Negoro's examination in chief
for the defense was resumed There
were no meetings of the Higher Wage
Association, the witness said, after
the strike began Money was always
coming in. There was an auditor
who had liberty to see the books and
papers at any time. The list of sub
scribers, everything in fact, had been
published. No account of expenditures
had been published. Rice, soy and
other contributions besides money
were received Tor the strikers, These
contributions had also been publish
ed
Negoro was questioned on the skele-
ton of the play given at Honolulu
theater in Aala Lane which he wrote
This was the third draft. He was
not a playwright but gave the actors the

While Mori, the youthful Japanese
assassin, who yesterday morning at
