It was no accident that gave Lord Nelson command of the British fleet. a title, and statue at Trafalgar Square. He gave the keynote of his own character when he said: When don't know whether to fight or not. l always nght." He was distinguished for personal attention in details on his ship and by attention to most minute circumstances. His last order showed this.

 In sddiiion to the sundry 'civii. the legislative, executive and Judicial and even the District of Columb bia bills car ry considerable sums chargeaple 10 military expenditures. and under tns there are also large amounts directly chargeable to war or the results or war. including interest and sinking fund charges on account of our oivil war debt. These sums. together With the amount tor the army ana navy In the general deficiency act, all amount ing to about $116.000.000, added to the mentioned. bring the total Of these ap- propriations that are chargeable to this session of Congress up to the enormous amount of $525.742,301.72 which, de- ductsd from $1.044.o14.2ss.23. the whole apparent sum of appropriations for the session. leaves only about bO per cent of our total proposed expenditures to be devoted to civil government.
 The growth of appropriations for military purposes. including only those for the military and naval establish ments carried in the army and navy acts and without reference to the large sums for pensions. fortlfcations and other incidents of war to which l! have referred, for the eight-year period prior to the Spanish war contrasted with the eight-year period ending with the hs- cal year 1910 affords a startling exhib. 1t that commend to the thoughtful consideration of my countrymen:

Reservoir
Gives Way
Does Much Damage Below
Kaupakalua.

One of the disasters occasioned by
the heavy rains of last week was the
bursting of a large plantation reser-
voir at Kaupakalua. This reservoir
which supplies with water the Ka-
luanui section of the Maui Agricul-
tural Companys lands is situated in
a gulch some distance mauka of A
5. Medeiros's house now occupied
by Asst. Conuty-Surveyor Foss.
At s O'Clock P. M. Thursday
evening, the 18th, the over burden
ed dam broke at the center of the
side fronting the gulch and with IA
great rush and road the torrent
swept downward carrying everything
before it with irresistible force. 1t
not only uprooted large kukui trees
several feet in circumference but
took soil and all, utterly destroying
taropatches, orchards, and vine
yards and leaving nothing to mark
their sites excepting great boulders.
During the flow of waters which
lasted only ten minutes the banks
on either side of the 80 or go, foot
gulch shook violently causing people
residing near by to fear for the safety
of their dwellings and their lives.
Nine small farmers suffered losses
variously estimated from s25 to
5000. One man stated that last
year his vineyard of grapes (the first
CROP yielded him s75 and that his
taro patches realized 500 per an
mum. Besides the losses in taro and
grapes, peach and alligator pear
orchards and vegetable gardens were
entirely demolished.
The plantation authorities have
been appealed to and are looking in
to the matter as to damages.
Among those suffering losses are
Manuel Castro, Manuel Castro Jr.,
Manuel F. Pereira, John da Costa,
A. S. Medeiros, Mrs. M. Comes,
and Manuel B. Costa.
There's a large force of laborers
at work repairing the break.
On Tuesday, the 18th Deputy
Sheriff Edgar Morton brought four
alleged cattle stcalers before District
Magistrate Chas. Copp of Makawao
who committed them to the next
grand jury.
Their names were Frank Robcllo,
Frank Pires, Solomon Kealoha, and
Mau Fong. Seven head of cattle
belonging to Haleakala Ranch were
found in "a pen of Frank Rabello at
Omapio, Kula, under circumstances
that have not been satisfactorily ex'
planned.
AT meeting of the trustees of Maui
naolu Seminary, held at Paia plan
