The minister of agriculture of the
Province of Quebec announces a discov-
cry of immense Importance to dairy in
terests. He says a process has been de-
vised by which milk can be pasteurized
and kept pure and perfectly sweet in
sealed jars for six or eight months. This
would enable dairymen to store up sup
plies of the product when grass is abun-
dant and thus realize better financial re-
turns. 1t would also solve the problem
of supplying steamships and other
craft with milk when they are at sea,
and depose the condensed product Sue
cessful experiment, it is said, has been
conducted at the st. Hyacinth Dairy
School by the Quebec department of
agriculture, with machine that cost
only $1,000.

The blind who love books will have
reason to remember the coming year, for
it bids fair to witness the cheapening of
literature for their use and to extend the
horizon of their reading. This is looked
for as the outcome of an invention by
which hereafter books for blind readers
will be printed on both sides of the pa
per, instead of ON only one side of each
sheet as now. At moment when the
slipping away of time is brought
to mind. it is pleasant to reflect that in
many departments of human endeavor
progress is steady from year to year.
There is compensation for the lapse of
time when leach tomorrow finds us fur

Lionel Mathews bought the San

other day, not knowing that the agree

pay back debts to an amount about
equal to the sum asked for the prop.
erty. When he came to, amidst the
clamoring of employees who wanted
their wages, he found the only thing
he really owned were some fern pots
Then fence had lien on it and the pic
ture machine belonged to someone else.
He had paid $3.50 for them. Now Joe
Cohen has taken the proposition off
Lionel's hands and will run the open
air place as a skating rink.
According to the statement made yes
terday by a former employee of the San
Francisco theater, Irwin Keck and
Daniel Tweedie were the organizers of
the company, Keck being credited with
the statement that he was a nephew
of the late Claus Spreckels and that his
father owned baronial estates in the
empire of Germany. With one other
shareholder, Tweedie and Keck opened

Tweedie made trip to Hawaii. On
his return he objected to the methods
persued by Keck and the two agreed
to part company. Mathews was tho
next to become interested in the well
fare of the theater and he bought out
Tweedie IS interest, agreeing unbeknown
to himself to pay the back debts. And
there is where he made the record price
on flower pots.
When Mathews was called upon TO
pay $50 due to those employed in the
theater by Tweedie he objected and de-
clared that he could not be called upon
to pay the obligations, and in the mean
time Tweedie took steamer for the
mainland.
Those who have wage claims against
the former theater management are
about fourteen in number, and they
have about given up hope of securing
any financial satisfaction. They have
consulted lawyer and were informed
that their only valid claim was against
the absent Tweedie who employed them.
They made every attempt to make col
lection before he departed for the main
land but without success.

Woman Smkebreaker in Pay Line

man knows he will get his pay.
There was surprise in store last
evening for the pay clerks. One Of the
strikebreakers was a woman. When
she reached out her hand for the en-
velope the young man almost dropped
it. The woman passed over her ticket
which was duly punched, and she re-
ceived the envelope. She was dirty and
showed signs of hard labor, and car
ried her school sack as provision
carrier, just the same as the men. She
appeared to be Spanish. When asked
what kind of labor she performed, she
smiled and threw goo-goo eyes at the
gentlemanly young men, while her hand
closed eagerly around the envelope.
Fifteen hundred men and boys, and
one woman, formed the army of strike
breakers that manned the sugar fields
of the Waipahu and Aiea plantations
yesterday. None were sent to Eva,
owing to the strikers having returned
to work. Seventeen hundred will prob
ably be the number leaving today.

meeting of the twenty-four citizens
OF the place for the next day.
The meeting was held in front of
the residence of Charles Gay. at Keo-
moku The young men who had
brought the new ideas into the settle
ment labored In vain to show that
Lanai must adopt civilized ways or
drop out of the race The old stick
in-the-muds refused to see reason.
Cllnging tenaciously to the exploded
theory that n man ought to know
what he is doing all the time. they
enacted a set OF rules, three of which
appear above.
Now no more is the island made

any resident of the island goes to La
haina and gets drunk, he is left
there. No boatman dare bring him
back across the channel. When sus-
pected ones try to smuggle in a bot
tie or demijohn, they are most likely
to be met at the little landing at
Manele and have their bottle smashed
and their demijohn emptied. Mr..
Gay gives his moral support to the
laws; the people enforce them.
There is a lesson in this, IL you

If you want to see fifteen hundred
men of almost every nationality known
in Honolulu, save japanese, come in
from the plantation at the close of day,
dirty, hungry, and above all anxious to
receive their pay envelopes containing
$3.50 each, go down to the Oahu Rail
road depot any afternoon between $3.50
and o'clock. 1t is one of the most
unusual sights ever witnessed in Homo
lulu, and is due only to the fact that
the Japanese laborers on Aiea, Waipahu
and Eva plantations struck for higher
wages and that some are still striking.
Few people had any idea that a call
for strikebreakers would bring horde
of two thousand men clamOring at the
railroad gates at 4 clock in the morn
ing each more than anxious to get n
ticket which would give him a ride
to the plantation and entitle him at
the end of the days work in the sugar
cane fields and mill to a ride back home
and $3.50 cash. But they are there
every neutrality-suspicious., Portuguese,
Spanish, Chinese, Koreans, Porto
Ricans, negroes, Filipinos, Americans
well, 1t is difficult to enumerate the
many nationalities.

They have full-aedged prohibition
on the Island OF Lanai. the kind OF
prohibition that prohibits, the local
option brand. The Lanaians do not
know, OF course, that local option
won't work. that prohibition brings
disastrous results in its train, that
individuals have the God-given right
to soak in all the booze they desire,
thump their wives by way of antidote
and provide valid excuses for breaches
of the peace. All that the Lanaians
know is that they don't want drunks
around and have adopted measures to
keep them away. OF course, they
are country folk. ignorant of the in
alienable rights of man, and they
cannot see things in the same way as
the more progressive people OF Homo
lulu. 1t is to laugh.
Some time ago, two of the young
bloods of the island journeyed as far
away from the goat pastures as La
haina. There they proceeded to
adapt themselves to the more civilized
standards of the ancient. capital and
