Why Don't You Go To Church.

You are too tired to go to
church." That's sheer nonsense.
There isn't a more restful place
anywhere than the church. You
are going to lie around the house
all day; doze in a hammock; loll
in a rocking chair; go to sleep ov-
err book. That isn't resting,
that's loafng. Tell yourself,
honestly-did you ever in all your
life see who looked rested? Did
you ever see a loafer who didn't
look tired all the time? The peo-
pie who try to rest are always
tired. Resting is the hardest
work in the world when you make
work of it. One hour in church,
one hour in the quiet; the music,
the sermon, the reading, the up
lift which comes from the new
channels into which your mind is
lead, will rest you more physical
cally, morally, intellectually, than
all the day spent in trying to rest
says Bob Burdette. Why don't
you go to church?

MEASLES AND

Sheriff Crowell of Maui county,
who is in town today, reports six
cases of scarlet fever at Hamahua-
poke, four cases at Waikiki, and two
cases of measles in Wailuku Jail.
President Mott-Smith of the Board
of Health said this morning that OF

which to isolate cases of contagious
disease on Maui, an account of the
Territorial government having no ap-
preparation for an isolation ward of
quarantine hospital on that island, as
is the case with the islands of Oahu
and Hawaii
He stated that in the present case
arrangements would probably be
made for the patients to use the isola-
ton headquarters of the Kahului
Railroad Company which are situated
in the sandhills between Kahului and
Wailuku.
Mott-Smith also hopes that arrange
ments will be made in the near fu-
ture whereby the Waikiki Sugar Com
pany will erect an isolation ward at
Waikapu and Maui county put up an
isolation ward of her own.

NATURAL CAS-
CONSERVATION

SAN FRANCISCO, May 15-The
Governor has approved the act
passed by the last Legislature which
provides a penalty for permitting the
unnecee sary waste of natural gas
from wells. Many oil operators are
affected by this measure because of
the great amount of natural gas en-
countered by them in drilling for oil
il. varioLs parts of the state The
reason advanced for the measure
was that at different places in the
state where wells had been drilled
for oil only, gas had been met with
The gas has been utilized where pos
sible, but in many instances the
wells were abandoned and countless
millions of cubic feet of gas have
been allowed to go to waste and no
attempt made to cap the wells.
Some of these wells have been flow
ing for years.
Recently it was discovered in the
East that gasoline could9b be profitablv
extracted from natural gas, ard it is
reported that company operating
in the Buena Vista Hills is preparing
to install an extracting plant. In
bringing the matter of gas waste to
the attention of the Legislature the
State Mining Bureau probably had
in mind the great waste caused by
unrestricted flow in some of the
Eastern states before the authorities
made any attempt to conserve it.

Especial Correspondence of the Starr
WASHINGTON, May 11.-United
States General Thomas Sammons of
Yokohama, in report upon the Jap
anese sugar industry, says:
Japanese sugar merchants are
preparing to ship Formosan sugar to
Vancouver, where it will probably
be refined by the British Columbia
Refining Company. 1t is estimated
that Canada requires 500,oOO,OOO
pounds of sugar annually. Some or
this demand is supplied by the Fiji
Islands, where British Columbia re-
finers have extensive sugar-producing
interests. The freight rates from
Japan to Vancouver are slightly ia
vorable to Formosan sugar produc-
ers, and it is expected that Canada
will, barring trade competition, take
a considerable quantity of Japanese

battleship question, and if the truth
must be told, ordnance experts do
not know whether in an engagement
at close range-sueh as will newt
ably take place if war should break
out within the next few years-the
pre-preadnought battleship may not
be able to inflict enormous damage
upon a smaller fleet of Dreadnoughts
by concentrating all their guns upon
them. In the eyes of the man in
the street the greatness of the latest
battleships, no doubt, is the striking
power of the big guns in the main
battery. That is partly due to the
fact that big things are impressive.
It is also partly due to the fact that
his newspapers feed him up with de-
tails of gun ranges and weights of
projectiles. Particularly Is he peri
odically invited to be impressed by
the weight of metal in a Dread
nought's broadside fire of ten 70.
inch or 1S.5-inch or 14-inch guns.
This is exactly what naval engineers
think the least of as the principal
problem in the disposition of the
guns in relation to their all-round
fire. OF course, all-round fire is an
obvious impossibility, even with a
ship without tunnels or masts But
it is worth while noting that the ear
lier Dreadnoughts have a greater
ahead and astern fire than the Orions
which have all their five turrets on
the middle line. The man behind the
gun has been provided with tools"
which enable him to use these scien-
tifically designed, manufactured and
disposed guns to the very highest
advantage. Between 1900 and 1907,
according to Professor Biles, the hits
per 12-inch guns per minute were
doubled, and in 1909 they were 60
per cent better than they were in
1907. Yet, according to the best au-
thorities on naval strategy-and the
history of warfare bears them out
it Is not so much the number of guns
that counts as their disposition into
line on the day of battle, vide Abou-
kir, Trafalgar, Tsushima and other
engagements.

The New French BattIeshlps.

Shipping Illustrated: The French
battleship Diderot, one Of the six
18,OOO-ton ships laid down in 1918,
is now undergoing her official
trials. She arrived at Brest re-
Gently and was placed in drydock to
have her bottom painted, preparatory
to undergoing her official trials. The
Diderot is driven by four sets Of
Parsons turbines, constructed by the
builders, and is designed for speed
of nineteen knots at 22,500 horse
power. She was laid down in Octo-
Der, 1907, and launched April 10,
1909, so that almost three years and
a half will have elapsed from the
time of laying down the keel until
going into full commission, which is
a considerable improvement upon the
length of time formerly required TO
bring out new armored ships in
France. The six ships of the type
illustrated herewith, which is known
in France as the "Danton" class, are
not so powerfully armed as the cap
ital ships at present undergoing trials
in Great Britain and Germany, and
are also inferior in offensive arma.
ment to our South Carolina and
Michigan, which mount eight 12-inch
guns. But it should be noted that
the four German Dreadnoughts now
in commission only mount 11-inch
guns, of which they had twelve, and
the Japanese Alli and Satsuma, which
have just come out mount for r.
inch guns and twelve 10-inch guns,
This armament is almost similar to
that of the French ships which
mount four Pinch and twelve ga
inch guns. The armor protection Of
the French ships, moreover, is bet
ter than that of the Japanese, and
although the draught is the same,
twenty-seven feet inches, the Jap
anese ships-which, however, have a
speed of twenty-five knots-displace
about 1000 tons more than the
French vessels. There is nothing

INCREASING OIL
DEVELOPMENT

SAN FRANCISCO, May 16.-Word
has just been received here that a
still further increase in the opera
tons Of the Kern Trading and Oil
Company (Southern Pacific) in the
west side fields is to be expected
soon. At present the company is
running almost thirty strings of
tools. Development of the last week
or two has added more wells to
the producing list of the compa-
ny. In the Coaljnga fleld about
seventeen strings are in operation
by the railroad company, and it Is
purposed to increase this by ten
strings Immediately. Seventy-two
locations have been made for new
wells.
The surmise that these locations
are partly for the purpose of protect
ing quarter sections in view Of the
litigation now on is incorrect. The
policy of the company now appears
to be to produce OIL rather IMAM W
protect property.
That the Standard Oil Company
does not anticipate any great falling
off in the surplus of oil production is
indicated by the fact that work on its
eight new 5OC,OOO-barrel reservoirs at
the reservoir farms 1 and 3, just
west of the Kern river field, is be-
ing rushed.
When the new reservoirs are com.
pleted the Standard will have a stor-
age capacity of 17,4OO,OOO barrels,
exclusive of the steel tanks situated
farther east, near the initial station
of the big pipe line to Point Rich
mond.

COFFEE MARKET
LOOKS PROMISING

Willett & Gray's Journal of May 4
says, in part, of the coffee situation:
The worlds visible supply for
April shows a decrease of 413,000
bags, remarkable reduction of Port
stocks considering that deliveries
have been restricted with a tenacity
seldom equaled. With consumption
about normal, the United States and
European port deliveries were by far
the smallest of any April in the past
ten years. The only rational conclu-
sion to be drawn from this is a very
sharp curtailment of invisible sup
plies. The abstention from regular
buying is not altogether the question
of price, for it must be remembered
the coffee world bought more freely
at much higher prices during the
fall months when the crop was at its
highest. The Brazil receipts in April
were, only $4,000 bags, the arrival OF
Milds about as expected for the
month, the total arrivals Of Milds for
ten months being about the same as
last year. The receipts of all kinds
of coffee will, therefore, be extremely
small for the balance Of the season.
If the trade still persists in buying So
very sparingly it points pretty clearly
to a more strained condition and a
pursuit of unsafe and unsound tao
