HARTMAN TRIBUTE
FROM NEWARKERS
Prominent Business and Profess
sional Men Praise Work
of Dead Financier.

Several of Newark's leading citizens
today paid a high tribute to the mem
DRY of E.. II. Hartman.
James M. Reilly. secretary of the
Board of Trade, said: IT have consld-
cred e. H.. Hartman one of the great
est leaders in promoting the develop
ment of the commerce and agricultural
resources of this country. His methods
may have been open to adverse criti-
cism, but the object and the accom-
plishment of results are what counts.
His work in organizing the railway
systems of the United States will be a
monument to his memory after the
names of many contemporary railroad
kings and fnanciers shall have passed
away into oblivion"
John w. Lushear, president of the
North Ward National Bank: Mr.. ,Har-
riman was an uphuilder of railroads.
He took the Union Pacific and other
roads when they were bankrupt, when
no other railroad nan would have any
thing to do with them, and he made
them valuable properties. Within ten
years he got control of thousands OF
miles of railroad, more thar any man
ever did In the world. 1t is a remark
able record. He was a success as a
banker in Wall Street and more sue
cessful in his work of consolidating
railroads.

nephew. A man who knew Mr.. Harri-
man a long time told me last night that
he had remarkable energy, that when
he was being shaved or was at lunch
his brain was busy solving some big
financial or railroad problem, and that
he burned the candle at both ends"

geniuses that the country has thus far
produced. He had the foresight to see
the necessity of well-equipped, through

time of his death he was engaged In
establishing an intricate system OF

The country has mourned many dead
great men, and as we all nave to go,

BURGLARS WORK
IN DAYLIGHT
While Manoa People Attend
Church Bad Men Go
Through House.

In broad daylight yesterday forenoon,
sometime between 10 and II clock,
the house of Mrs Elizabeth Turner in
College Hills, adjacent to the homes
of R. j. Pratt, Mr. Patton and J. o.
Lutted, was ransacked by thieves and
robbed of all the loose change and jew
elry in the house. Happily much of the
iewelry was being worn by members
of the family who were attending
otherwise the loss would have
been much greater.
When Mrs. Turner returned home
from church and opened the front door,
she noticed the back door open. In.
spection showed that some person or
persons had been in the house and
ransacked it from front to rear. Money
which was laid away in different places
had been found and taken. Some OF
the cash was contained in children s
banks.
The robbery was committed quietly
for none of the neighbors were aware
that burglars were working almost IN
their midst and it was not until Mrs.
Turner gave the alarm that they knew
of the bold work A message was sent
to the police station and the detective
force notified of the occurrence. Resi-

RUM PLANT At
H|LO IS READY
Can Turn Out Sixty Gallons a
Day as Ry-Product of the
Sugar Industry.

With an abundance of the raw ma
terial at hand, it seems little surpris-
ing that this Territory should for so
long have continued to import its sup
plies of rum. But this anomalous con.
dition is about to be remedied, and J.
G. Serrao of Hilo takes the lead in
establishing new industry which will
amply provide all the rum that is re-
quired for the local market, starting
work this week.
The Serrao Liquor Company, which
already makes its own wine, has erect
ed distillery at Kukuau settlement
Just outside the town of Hilo. The
building is an oblong wooden strnc'
ture of one story in height, with iron
roof and cement floor throughout. Out
side, on knob of volcanic rock, a
large water tank is erected and is kept
constantly full of pure water from the
city reservoir The locality also af-
fords very fine view of the surround
ing country.
The distillery building IS divided
into five separate rooms. Beginning at
the northerly end, there is a spacious
storeroom for the reception and stor-
the rum is made, consisting of molasses
sugar and sugar cane, each of which
is used to produce different quality
of rum. Next to this is the distillery
proper, with its furnace, its Eve large
fermentation tanks, its distilling appa-
ratus. and its cooling vat, into which
the liquor is forced and from which it
is drawn off There is also cask for
receiving imperfect liquor, which will,
second time be subjected to the dis
tilIing process.
The perfected liquor is taken by
pipes into an adjoining room, where
there are casks ready to receive it.
Here also is the testing and weighing
apparatus, used to determine the
amount of duty chargeable by the In
ternal Revenue Department. When
the casks of liquor have passed these
tests they are moved into another room,
which is to be constituted govern
ment bonded store, and no liquor Will
be allowed to pass out of that room
until the internal revenue duty has been
paid. Last of all there is small room

NEW OLAA As
TOBACCO LAND
Alfonso Sees Possibilities for
Growers of Nicotine
Plants.

81 believe that there will be great
tobacco industry established some day
on the Olaa tract" stated Representa-
tive Alfonso yesterday, "and | know
now of some homesteaders who would
take up land there for tobacco expert
ments if the appraised values were not
so high as to be unreasonable. When
That price is reduced to figure that
is possible to settlers, there viii be
many homes established on that land. -
Mr.. Alfonso has been looking into the
question of tobacco possibilities and has
been in communication with Sub-Land
Agent Williams at Hilo, in connection
with the Olaa tract. In one letter, Mr..
Williams wrote:
sin yours of the 23rd ult. you men
toned, that if d had any matters to
refer to you, you would give them at
tention.
ssThere is one thing I have always
regretted, and that is the almost utter
desertion of the New Olaa tract, caused
by over appraisement of the value OF
the lots at the time, which appralse-
ment was no doubt induced by the sud
den rise of values on the old Olaa
reservation.

STUDENTS RELIC OF 80
FOUND At PUAAH0U

An interesting find was brought to
light at Oahu College the other day
when in looking over some of the ma
teriai used in science classes in former
years, W. T. MacNeil, head of the
Science Department at the College,
found piece of glass about six inches
square on which was etched with acid:
g First chemistry class, - and the names
of the members of the class who were
as follows:
Ida Campbell, Hessie Dickson, Rose
Dawson, May Dillingham;, Lillian Ly.
man, Alice Renton, Emma Renton,
Arthur Brown, Willie Forbes, II. Cham
beriain, E. Mossman, Levi Lyman, Her
bert Dole, Walter Dole, J. o. Carter.
This is evidently the record of
class in chemistry about 1885 who were
just getting their first lessons in the
use of acids. The plate is being clean
ed up, preparatory to framing.

The above is the clause of Furtado IS
liquor bill, now formally before the
House, which excited more or less com
ment yesterday. Tinhorn politicians
regard 1t as the acme of craftsmanship
opening up vista of chances for pick
ings, of late very scarce; the liquor
dealers who are behind the Moore bill
express regret that the House measure
was ever brought to light, its exist
ence only adding more and more TO
the danger to the Moore amendment
while temperance workers seem to
think that the bill is SO radical and
on the face of it SO dangerous to the
public welfare that there can be no
possibility of it ever becoming enact
ed into law.
Saturday was day of considerable
work in both branches of the Legisia-
ture, the Senate in particular taking
one step that will become more than
a local issue. The routine of the day
follows:
The Senate had a full attendance
when called to order at ten O'Clock
Saturday morning. House Bill No. 81
was received and passed first reading
The bill provides that public officials
may appoint persons to act in their
stead when compelled to be absent
from the place where their duties are
performed or when, as a matter of con
venience, public official needs to have
someone act for him.
A communication was received from
the Board of Supervisors of the County
of Hawaii giving an account of their
last meeting and matters then discuss
ed bearing upon legislative action by
the representatives of the Big Island
%The communication was not read, being
placed on file.
The Committee on Public Lands re-
ported on Senate Bill No. 40, entitled

JIG of the Session Laws of 1907 relat-
ing to hunting with firearms The
object of the bill was to allow district
foresters to issue permits for the hunt
ing of wild hogs and goats, without
first obtaining license to hunt with
firearms. The committee report, which
was adopted by the Senate, states that

TALK
ON THE TRUTH
Bishop Smith Declares Church
and Science Have No
Disputes.

A large congregation listened to
Bishop Chas. W. Smith IS farewell ser.
mon in First Methodist church yester-
day morning, at the conclusion of
which he announced the conference APP
pointments. He took his text from the
gospel of st. John, 8th chapter, verses
81 and 80, tThen said Jesus to those
Jews which believed on him: If We
continue in my word, then are ye dis
ciples indeed; and We shall know the
truth and the truth shall make you
free. = He spoke in part as follows:
"The truth gives us facts. There are
several great realms of truth, of fact,
in each department of the universe
Truth is reality, that with which we
have to deal. A man may dispute a
statement of a fact or an inference
drawn from a fact but he can not dis
pute fact itself A fact is an indis-
putable thing. Woe to the man or wo-
man who becomes entangled in facts
for he or she will come out worsted.
tAll truth is of God, no matter to
what department of human life it be-
longs, because God is the creator of
all things. Facts of philosophy, psyehol,
ogy and science are just as much facts
as those of theology. There can be no
conflict between the truth in any two
departments of the universe. God does
not make one department conflict with
another. There is harmony through all
departments of life. There have been
conflicts in construction but not in
facts; conflicts between scientists and
theologians but not between science and
theology. Calico, when he stated his
theory in regard to the shape of the
earth, was criticized by theologians but
the latter had simply misconstrued
facts
"Methodism stands with open mind
for truth in every phase of life, and
is ready to accept truth and preach it
if it is proven true. 1t is the truth we
want, it is the truth we must have;
it is the truth we must accept; it is
the truth we must proclaim.
sA1l truth is truth, yet all truths
are not equally important We must
recognize this in our preaching and
teaching. The character of church
building is in no sense comparable with
the purpose Oh TIE DulluIHS. tcoAic
churches may be much better than
others, yet in all of them the gospel
is preached, saeraments administered,
sinners led to repentance and men and
women trained for sainthood. Paul
gave certain orders. in his letters, based
on certain conditions obtaining then,
but conditions pass away. so we must
be careful to ascertain the character,
nature and permanenee of rules even
in the sacred scriptures.
ssNearly all contentious in the
church are on matters of trifling impor-
lance, and on nothing of permanent
value Customs should change with
conditions. There are seventeen classes
of Methodists in the United States. and
vet they are all the same in funda-
mental doctrine. They differ on some
trivial matter of custom. They all be-
lieve in one God, His SON Jesus Christ,
repentance, regeneration and the unity
of Father, Son and Holy Ghost. The

SET apart LOT an ONCE.
In every way the building is COM
plete, compact, fully equipped and well
suited to the purpose for which it is
intended. 1t has been inspected and
approved by J. Walter Doyle of the
Internal Revenue Department, and was
ready to start operations some weeks
ago. awaiting only the approval of the
Federal authorities at Washington,
which has now been received.
The serrao plant is of sufficient ca
paeity to turn out sixty gallons of rum
every day, but the present intention
is to limit the output TO only thirty
gallons. When the demand justifes an
extension of operations, few addi-
tons to the structure win enable the
owners to comply with all government
requirements. The output of thirty
gallons day will, it is expected, sup
ply the demand throughout the Terri
tory for some years to come.
The distillery will be under the
charge Of Mr.. McAlpine, who has had
experiences in such work and will su-
perrise all operations. Mr.. Serrao has
made arrangements with the Hawaii
Mill for the supply of molasses.

%, intended to amend section 141SD of
the Revised Laws of Hawaii as enacted
by section l, Act 90 of the Session
Laws of 1907, relating to licenses on
fishermen. The report was laid on the
table to be considered with the bill
The committee did not look with
favor on House Bill No. 16, which
would exempt from taxation all per-
sons who are blessed with six or more
children under the age of eighteen
years. Senator Fairchild said that the
entire policy OF the Territory was to
increase its revenue and not to re-
duce it. He said that the passage of
such a measure would establish a pre-
cedent that would not be wise and
recommended that the bill be laid ON
the table. The report of the WAYS and
Means Committee Endorsed the bill to
reduce the price of the Revised Laws
from SO to So volume Senator
Fairchild said that there were hundreds
of volumes still on the hands of the
Secretary of the Territory and that it
was hoped that reduction in the price
would assist in the sale of the greater
portion of the volumes in storage.

strongly to what he termed the failure
of the committee to go thoroughly into
the true status of the resolution-in-

resolution was designed in an effort to
commit the Senate in the matter of as
sisting in the solution of an error of
800 that had been found in the books
of the clerk of the Judiciary Depart
ment. The error in question was about
a decade old and is not blamable to
the clerk. The committee report stated
that while the object of the resolution

worthy servant of the Territory, still
it would commit the government in
the matter of assisting its employees
