COST OF OPIUM
MAY CURE HABIT
Anti /. Opium Medicine
May Be Brought
From China

Is the cure for the curse of China,
opium smoking, to be an economic
one? Such Is the hope of Leon
Chew. president of the Hawaii
branch OF the Chinese Anti-Opium
League, who says that he believes
that the high price of opium is de-
creasing its use. AS with every adj
vance in price its use Is becoming
more prohibitive.
A large and enthusiastic meeting
of this league was held Sunday aft
ernOOn In the clubrooms OF the Chi
nese United Society on King street,
near Nuuanu. Among the promi-
nent Chinese who addressed the
meeting were Consul Leong and the
president of the league.
A decision was reached during the
meeting to send To China to secure
medicines that are known, to be a
cure for opium smokers and dis
tribute them among the Chinese who
are addicted to the habit. A similar
move was made by the society sew
eral years ago, but did not meet with
much success. as the Chinese refused
to be interested. The cause was at
tributed to the cheapness of opium
at that time. 10 is now believed,
with the price of opium so high. that
the victims of the habit can be in
duced to take the medicine, as 1t will
mean an economical Improvement for
them, as well as n physical one.
In addressing the meeting the
Consul stated that he was heartily
in. favor of the methods being taken

had had upon the officials, of China.
Previous to ruling made few
years ago by the government, which
at the time was believed TO be SO
drastic that IL could not be en-
forced, many of the officials of the
kingdom were opium-users, but since
the order affecting officials has been

Another important statement made
| by the Consul was that he believed
that the period OF ten years. which
was the time agreed upon between
England and China that the impor-
tation of opium could be continued.
and which is also the time given
growers of the poppy to engage in
another Industry, was altogether too

what he had learned since he had
been in the work, 1t might be well
for an organization of white people

Four out of every five babies that die might be saved.
 It is particularly urgent that the ba- by have the most intelligent care dur ing the remaining hot days of the sum- mer. It is during these sultry days of midsummer that the mortality among little babies is highest. This is natural, because the mortality among people of ali ages is high then, but tine ratio of deaths among babies is much higher than it would be if mothers knew the first principles of hygiene and sanitation as applied to the care of infants.
 A physician who has made a spe- cialty of the matter of the care of in- fants holds that rule leave the baby alone" is especially important. He declares that more babies are killed by misdirected kindness than by willful neglect.
 There are only two occasions for handling the little baby" he says. and those are. when it is being fed and when it's clothing is being changed Handling the baby for any other than these essential reasons is almost a crime.

Let the baby sleep all it will. While under one year old it should be fed very regularly through the day, but never wake it for feeding at night. That it sleeps well is more important than night feeding. Sick babies don { sleep.
 Babies under three months of age usually require nine feedings in twenty four hours, at intervals of two and a half hours, from three to six months, seven feedings in twenty-four hours at intervals of three hours; from six to nine months. six feeding in twenty four hours at intervals of three hours; from nine to twelve months. five feed ings in twenty-four hours at intervals of three and one-half hours.

4 GUTHRIE VICTORY
THE TEMPORARY INJUNCTION AGAINST OKLAHOMA STATE
 CAPITAL REMOVAL UPHELD.
GOVERNORS PETITION DENIED
Seat of Government Must Continu, at Guthrie Until the Case Is Set tied In courts-May Go to Federal Supreme Court.

Guthrie Ok, July 29.--The hands of Governor Haskell in his efforts to re- move the state capital from Guthrie state supreme court. The court re- fused to grant the writ of plohibi- ton asked for by Governor Haskell, through the state attorney general, against the power of the district court of Logan county to enforce it's tenn porary injunction, issued to restrain the governor and certain other state officials from moving the seat of gov ernment from Guthrie and forbidding them to transact elsewhere such off cial business as should be transacted at seat of government. The opinion was written by Justice Williams and was concurred in by all the members of the court except Justice Turner.
 Guthrie Wildly Excited.
 Guthrie immediately went wild with enthusiasm as this gave the town pos session of the capital until the re- moval question is fought out in the higher courts. Guthrie feels that pos. session Is nine points in law" and that had the capital been moved to Ok lahoma City pending the outcome in the courts, Guthrie would have been at great disadvantage.
 Probably Be Appealed.
 The supreme court upheld all the procedure that had been undertaken by Guthrie in the district court, save that the writ of injunction should ap- ply to Governor Haskell--all other state officials must be bound by the temporary injunction of the district court and must transact their official business at the seat of government erwise in the courts. regular pro- oedure, now would be for the district court to make permanent it's temper ary order and allow the case to go to the state supreme court upon appeal. From the state courts the case nn- doubtedly will go to the United States Supreme Court, which means perhaps several years of litigation Governor Haskell by proclamation, after he had established himself at Oklahoma City following the election on June II, de clared Oklahoma City to be the seat of government and together vita Ok lahoma City's lawyers held that his action was political not judicial, and for that reason could not be ques- toned in the courts The supreme court overturned this dostrine by say ing that the question was judicial.

Great Bend, Kan, July 29.-William Miller, young farmer who lived three miles south of Great Bend, was killed and his body found in a corntleld about 140 feet from the tent in which he lived.
 Death was due to a gunshot wound made by persons unknown, according to the verdict of coroner's jury i'm pressed into service on the farm. The indications are that Miller had been reading while lying down and while in this position the murderer or murderers crept to the wall of the tent and fired the fatal shot through 9 small hole in the side wall of the tent. The charge entered just below the left jaw and tore It's way upwards In the head.
 Two Sets of Footprints.
 From the blood on the bed and floor of the tent it was evident that the body had been left on the bed for an hour or so before it was dragged to the corn field where 1t was found in the morning. There were two sets of footprints about the body, one small, belonging either to a woman or boy. Msller's watch, shotgun and his horses and wagon are missing. A few trinkets, bunch of keys and thirty-two cents were found in the dead mans pockets. He had settled his harvesting accounts last week, and 1t may have been that the mur- derer expected to find sum of money in the tent. Miller, however, banked his money and always paid by check. He rented the farm from the Dick estate and since last spring had lived on the place in the tent in which the murder occurred.
 Discovered by Brother.
 The murder was discovered In the morning by Miller's younger brother, Bert, who stopped at the place on his way to town. He went in the tent, found the lamp lighted and blood on he bed and floor. He commenced to ooh around and found that the four horses and q wagon were gone. He immediately left word with some of the neighbors and came to town 10 spread the alarm. In the meantime two of the neighbors went to the farm and after searching about found the body just over the fence in q corn field.
 Suspicion attaches to horse trader and his wife who were in the Miller neighborhood throughout the harvest. The man tried hard to get one of Miller's teams. The man is of medium size, about feet inches in height. dark hair and eyes and of surly dis position. His wife Is described as tall and slim. Searching parties are out and should anyone be caught with Millers horses they probably would meet fate not according to law.
