TO THE POINT
Refer the Question

A fresh young lawyer had the iE- sane idea that bulldoizng a witness brought about the best results. He was the defendants attorney in dn important case and naturally was anxious to win. One Of the witnesses for the plaintiff was a youngster Of perhaps IS years of age, red-headed, had a pugnacious hang to his jaw and as he took his seat in the witness chair he gazed about the court room as if he felt perfectly at home. Then the young lawyer got at him.
 What's your name?" beloved the exponent of Blackstone.

ON BIG ISLAND
FEDERAL PHOTOGRAPHER LEIGHTON WAS SHOCKED AT IMMENSE
DOMAIN ON HAWAII WHICH ANNoT BE RECLAIMED EXCEPT
PROCESS NATURE EXTENDING THROUGH CENTURIES
-VE INVESTIGATED WATER RESOURCES OF THE ISLAND.

The immense amount of land which
is owned by the government and OBJ
solutely worthless for agricultural pur-
poses on the Island of Hawaii was
the chief feature remarked on by Nj.
o. Leighton, the chief photographer
of the United States who returned
from that island this morning, after a
trip of inspection in which he has
been accompanied by superintendent
of Pubic Works Marston Compben
The two sections which appealed to
Mr.. Leighton were those lying under
the Kohala mountains and that from
Laupahoehoe to Hilo. Here, Mr..
Leighton states there is considerable
land which may yet be developed for
diversified industries. He said, i'll
speaking of his trip:
THE thing which impressed me. no,
! shocked me, most on Hawaii was the
immense area of land that God forgot,
that is the great tracts which are OBJ
solutely worthless to man in their
present condition. They must wait
for reclamation for the natural pro-
cesses which have given us all our
fertile land and which will take cen
turtles to bring about the results.
"On Hawaii there is comparatively
little Government land left that is
good for anything. When one looks
at the map on which the privately
owned lands are in one color and the
Territorial lands in another, the great
stretch of government land gives the
idea that there is a great chance fol

Princess Kalanianaole, wife of Ha-
wallis Delegate to Congress (Prince)
Kuhio Kalanianaole, yesterday lost
valuable Russian decoration, set with
brilliants, presented to King Kalaka-
ua years ago, the order presumably
having been dropped, in a handbag,
from her carriage somewhere between
the flshmarket and the Waikiki home
of the Kalanianaoles.
The following advertisement is APP
pearing in the daily English and in
the Hawaiian newspapers:

outside; contents of no value ex-
cept to owner. A suitable reward
will be paid for the return of the
satchel and contents to room 2,
Kapiolani building, King and Ala
kea streets.
1t seems that the Princess, accom-
panied by her mother drove into town
from Waikiki yesterday forenoon and
went to the Offices of the Kapiolani
estate where the valuable diamond
studded charm was kept for safety,
and the Princess withdrew the jewel
from it's depository, having in mind
to wear it at an approaching social
| function.
The priceless keepsake, once the
decoration presented TO the King of
Hawaii by the Russian government,
was placed In the handsatchel Of the
Princess, the bag bearing the "K",
for 'Kalanianaole." In the bag, al
so, were a gold bracelet about fif-
teen dollars in gold and change, and
few minor articles. The bag was
placed at the bottom Of the carriage
where the Princess and her mother
were stated, but when they arrived
home it was nowhere to be found.
The decoration is worth several
thousand dollars; it is priceless be
cause of its associations.

TRYING TO GET
WRIGH7'S MONEY

An interesting case will come up
this afternoon in the Circuit Court
when Deputy Attorney General Lorrin
Andrews takes up the matter of the
Territory VS.. Williams H. Wright. The
case is a garnishee matter to secure
from Bishop & Co., the sum of $2327 .85
which was deposited with that COM
pany nearly three years ago to
Wright's credit by a trust company in
New South Wales. The Wright men
toned is the absconding treasurer and
the suit is brought on the ground that
he owes the Territory the sum OIL ST.
949 80, on an l. o. u. which he placed
in the treasury after taking that sum
from the chinese Fund
Wright has not been heard from for
five years, when he was located in
Mexico, but was not extradited owing
to the fact that the Legislature re-
fused to appropriate the necessary
funds for the trip of an officer. In
the present suit the matter of jurisdic-
ton may arise on account of the fact
that it has been impossible to serve
Wright personally with the papers in
the case. The fact that he is fugi-
tive from justice, however, makes this
affair more simple than it would be
otherwise.

may be dcne, me section
under the Kohala mountains and es-
pecially around Waipio comes first.
The upper and lower Hamakua bitches
are of sufficient capacity, I should
judge, to irrigate all the land available
for a considerable distance along the
Hamakua Coast and there still will
remain a considerable amount of wa
ter in The Waipio stream. The power
here IS ready for great amount of
development. 1t may be used for any
thing, for the pumping of other water
by electricity, for running cotton mills,
pineapple canneries, railroads or doz-
ems of other purposes and should be
produced at a very small cost. The
water rights and the land in this
section which may be developed
understand, belong to the Bishop
Museum.
The great water supply of the ISL
and of Hawaii lies in the section run
ming from Laupahoehoe to Hilo bay.
Here they have more power than is
needed, under the present conditions
at least The sugar plantations that
do not pump their water do not need
power of course, as they have the trash
to dispose of which runs their mills,
In this section there is a broad belt of
land which lies above the sugar plan
tations on the Coast that is available
for diversified farming.
Can small farming be a success in
Hawaii? That is a question which
shall try to answer next Wednesday
before the Commercial Club. It is not
a matter of Oriental labor or of the
other causes against which there is
so much complaint. The difficulty
comes from the lack of transportation
When one produces there must be q
market and when there is no trans
portation there can be no market"
