BIG FIRE STARTS.
Blaze of Huge Proportions Breaks Out
Targhee Forest.

#... . SaSSss .....
Ogden, Utah, Aug. 27.-District For
ester r. E. Sherman received a mes
sage this morning from the supervisor
of the Targhee forest that a fire of
huge proportions has broken out near
Island Park on the Yellowstone Park
branch of the Oregon Short Line rail-
road. The forest service and the rail-
road have sent $50 men to fight the
fire.
Washington, Aug. 27-With tempera-
ture below freezing and the soldiers
clad in light uniform worn in military
maneuvers from which they were sud-
denly withdrawn, much suffering from
the cold was today reported to the war
department from the troops fighting
forest fires in the northern Rockies.
Captain Frazier, of the Fourteenth
infantry, who is in command of a camp
about thirteen miles north of Del
ton, Mont, reported that the snow and
rain which had fallen however, had
helped greatly in subduing the fires.
The need for the troops, he reported,
vas about passed provided the forest-
ers and rangers did their duty.
Five fires are now burning on the
Yakima Indian reservation in Wash
lngton according to telegram received
at the Indian bureau today from Su-
perintendent Young wants the troops
sent to the scene at once. He has
been able to enlist only thirteen fight
ers and laborers having horses are
very scarce.
Fire conditions on the Flathead res
%ervation have improved considerably
according to a telegram received from
superintendent Morgan today.

Radical Liability Law,

Albany, N. Y, Aug. 29.-Three laws
embodying important recommendations
by the employers liability commission
passed by the last legislature will take
effect on Sept. 1. One establishes a
system for reporting all industrial ac-
%cidents, only those occurring in factor
les. having heretofore been reported.
Another amends the employers and
making provision for agreements be-
tween employers and employees the pur-
pose of which is to substitute compen-
sation for injuries sustained by m

they can now sometimes obtain by liti-

compensation scheme mandatory in
certain specified dangerous employ.

How Twelve Met Death.

Spokane, Wash, Aug. 27.-Walter
Ness, a homesteader, who was a mem.
Der of a fire fighting crew on Big Creek
last night told how a dozen of his
party were burned to death.
Saturday afternoon thirty of US
were stationed about twelve miles up
Big Creek under Warden Christy," he
said.
Below about two miles wan another
small crew, and together we were
working to control a small fire. We
had worked for some days in this and
had the fire pretty we'll surrounded.
About 2:3O p. m. We heard a terrible
coaring up on the ledge just south OF
us and before we realized it the fire
had cut off our escape.
"The thirty men at the upper end OF
the fire all escaped, but all the poor
fellows below were killed. Five men
were killed by falling trees and seven
were ~suffocated in a small cave where
they sought protection"

bearing on the advance in railroad
rates scheduled to go into effect Nov.
l. The hearing involves 202 trans

territory.
According to President Miller of the
Chicago Burlington & Quincy, the
larger lines will not urge poverty as
necessitating rate advances. Miller
said hat business necessity and ex-
%pediency rather than the verge of
bankruptcy arguments will be made.
Shippers have been organized to
fight the proposed schedule for some
time. The campaign is being directed
by joint subcommittee of traffic ex-
perts headed by F. B. Montgomery OF
Chicago.
Thu shippers claim that the railroads
have padded the records of their
operating expenses in order to make
1t appear that an advance in freight
tariffs is demanded by common justice

Pipe Gives Cadet Typhoid.

Midshipman Smith, who was strick-
en- with typhoid fever on the Indiana
at Plymouth, England, contracted the
disease, it is said, from smoking a
briar used nearly a year ago by his
roommate at Annapolis who had a bad
case of typhoid. This theory is taken
as proof that concentrated nicotine
cannot destroy a typhoid germ. The
medical department of the navy will
examine into the theory with the re-
suit that midshipmen of the future
may confne themselves to their own
pipes.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications. as they cannot reach the dis
eased portion Of the ear. There is only one way to
cure deafness. and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an in1amed condition of the
mucous lining OF the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is indamed you have a rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing. and when 1t is entirely closed, Deaf
ness Is the result. and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal condi-
tion, hearing will be DESTROYED forever; nine cases
out of ten are caused by Catarrh. which Is nothing
but an infamed condition Of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case OF
Deafness Caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured

of the channel, when, to the surprise
of her captain and everyone else, she
suddenly grounded. She was supposed
to be in thirty feet of water. She
hadn't got to the second buoy inside.
Bben Low, who mad sent the Mokolii
out with the vessel, prepared to start
after her, in the launch Elizabeth. He
secured Judge P. L. Weaver as a crew
and was about to start, when news
arrived that the Amaranth was safe.
The Mokolii returned with report of
the accident. The barkentine was
ashore only couple of hours, but in
that time she has given the army engi-
neers something to think about.
Two other deep water vessels have
within the past few weeks, being the
first ones to do so. The dredging of
the channel to depth of thirty feet
was supposed to open the harbor to al
most any vessels, steam or sailing, and
with some further strengthening out of
the channel it has been supposed that
the harbor would be open at all times
to the largest battleships. The ANA
ranth incident indicates that the fed
eral government will have to keep up
steady dredging operations.
The channel of Honolulu harbor has
been similarly filling in, presumably
as n result of ocean currents, and bids
have just been opened for redredging
of this channel. Pearl Harbor is much
larger body of water than Honolulu
harbor and it is thought that the effect
of deepening it may have been felt
on the various coral beaches.

NEWLY DREDGED
PEARL HARBOR
CHANNEL FILLING

The barkentine Amaranth, drawing
only sixteen feet of water, grounded
late yesterday afternoon in the middle
of the Pear Harbor channel which was
very recently dredged to a depth of
thirty feet and made three hundred feet
wide. She was undamaged, and the
incident is unimportant except as it
bears upon the value of the harbor. In
that respect, it is an incident that will
probably have immediate attention in
the army and navy departments in
Washington, for it seems to indicate
such rapid filling in of the Pearl Har-
Dor channel by sand from the sea, that
constant maintenance of a dredging
plant at the entrance will be necessary.
And this may mean new arrangements
for the protection of such plant. In
c,dentally, the rapid flow of sand into
the Pearl Harbor channel, and into
Honolulu harbor channel, after they are
dredged, may account for the much
complained of draining of sand from
Waikiki beach.
The Amaranth arrived from Mukilteo
with a cargo of lumber for the naval
station. She left Honolulu in tow of
the Mokolii, and entered Pearl Harbor
channel between three and four clock
yesterday afternoon. According to all
who returned from the scene last night,
she was being towed down the middle

take care of them, and was very much
relieved when Quinn assurd him that
there was. He may possibly prepare a
treatise to be presented at the next
meeting proving that it takes at least
six men to take care of mule in the
proper manner.
Then AHA dug up new point where
be thought money could be saved, de.
manding to know why wOrkmen re-
ceived $4 day in Honolulu without
board and lodging and $4 with board
and lodging in the outside districts.
Moody being able to answer him, the
matter was referred to committee, and
Quinn turned the sod over it.
Fern said he wanted to leave a little
surplus over for the next board, and
Quinn arose and stated that he never
heard anything SO positively ridiculous.
He wanted to know what they had Ia
!, do with the next board, and nobody
answering that, the board let the matter
| drop.
When it dropped it awoke Aylett
again, who hurriedly arose and moved
that they cut all salaries ten per cent.
Logan said that if they did that all
the government employees and officials
NOulu resign, ana tne mayor prepdTeu
to shoot Aylett. The latter finally sub.
sided.
Quinn said that he believed they had
altogether too many superfluous offices,
and said he thought they out to cut
some out. The mayor looked anxious,
Tut said nothing and let Quinn's re-
marks die natural death.
After this discussion of economy and
the best means to arrive at it, which
took place in desultory manner, the
clerk called the roll and Kane and
Aylett voted against, and the rest for,
Logan IS resolution.
The whole matter means that the
supervisors have saved themselves from
going $4,000 in the hole only by chop
ping a small percentage off the road
appropriation and a large percentage
OFF the school appropriation and paying
much of the bills with the next July
appropriation.
After this was settled the engineer
presented report giving the expendi
lures on schools for the past three
months and added that he would be
unable to make any repairs unless he
got $500 or SO month, He advised
no repairs to be done at all unless
they were absolutely necessary, The
report was filed. Hereafter if the roof
leaks, it won I be fixed unless it leaks

OUT WITH THE
METHOD|STS
NOW ALSO
Cardinal Del Val Said
to Have Been Re-
sponsibIe for Pope's
Attitude.

ROME, April 6.-The chief develop
ment of the Vatican incident yesterday
was Colonel Roosevelt 8 reputation of
the stand taken by the Methodists here
in attacking the Vatican for its posi-
tion in regard to an audience for the
former President. The Methodists in
terpret the refusal of the President to
accept the conditional invitation to
an audience with the Pope as an n.,-
dorsement of their work.
Apparently reasoning along these
lines the Rev. Mr.. Triple, minister in
charge Of the Methodist here, yester-
day issued a statement attacking the
Vatican for stipulating that the audi
ence with the Pope should be condi-
toned on the former President refusing
to address the Methodists. Colonel
Roosevelt is greatly displeased at Tip
ple's action and in consequence has
announced that he will not hold a re-
ception arranged by the American
Methodist Mission of this city.
The announcement that Colonel
Roosevelt had repudiated Tipple's ac-
tion caused almost as great sensation
as did the original Vatican incident
and Anti -Romanists who applauded the
stand taken by Roosevelt are begin
ming to realize that they have not
achieved as great a victory as they
thought
The whole affair has caused more dis
cussion than Rome has known in years.
That so broadminded and eminent
man as the former President of the
United States should have been invited
to the Vatican only on condition that
he put slight upon those of his fell
low countrymen who do not acknowl-
edge the Catholic faith is considered
unfortunate to say the least.
Many prominent Catholics including
members of the sacred college of car.
dinals, yesterday expressed their dis
approval of the action taken by the
Vatican authorities.
Cardinal Merry del Val, as adviser
of the Pope, is generally blamed for
the whole unfortunate occurrence The
father of Cardinal del Val, former
Spanish ambassador to the Vatican,
stated yesterday that it seemed provi-
Dental that his son should be the man
to humble the pride Of the Yankee
Ex-President
A controversy of considerable bit
terness seems likely to develop out
of the incident.

"Honolulu, April 8, 1910.
Hon. James G. Quinn, Chairman Road

"Dear Sir:--I have been employed in
the road department of the government

pointment as luna and while l was on
the road, man named Lima, came to
me and urged me to attend Demo-
cratic meeting and sign the roll. After
the meeting was held he reproached
me with not having attended and in
sisted that should Immediately go

however, when it was my time to renew

discharged for political reasons. Yours
truly, J. X. MAUKoLl.
! The communication was received in
dead silence. Mayor Fern wore broad
smile during the reading. The mayor
has been on the other side of the island
during the past few days.
The letter is in line with reports OF
meeting at Kaneohe, held during the
recent trip of Mayor Fern and Sheriff
Jarrett, in the mayors auto. The road
men were practically ordered to be
present, according to report, and they
have since been given advice that it
will be better for them if they sign the
Democratic precinct club rolls.
