HOGS DIE FROM
POISONED SWILL

Residents OF South Rock Island who
have been feeding their hogs with gar
bage secured free of charge of the city
of Rock Island have found their stock
dying off and investigation brought to
light the fact that some of the garbage
contained poison. Complaint was i'm
mediately made and Commissioner Ar
chic Hart has ordered the discontinu-
ance of the practice of giving the gar
bage away. He has also issued public
warning TO residents Of the city to re-
fTain from putting anything of a poison
Gus nature in garbage cans as it is a
violation of the city ordinances and
will result in prosecution if anyone is
found continuing the practice. Until
such time as he is assured the gar
bage is free from poison. Mr.. Hart
will have all garbage buried at the
grounds in the southwest portion OF
the city.
The fact that the offals could be
given away to South Rock Islanders
at less expense to the city than to
bury it caused the adoption of the
of the scheme some time ago.

DR.. OLSSEN-SEFFER
KILLED IN MEXICO

DR.. Olssen-Seffer, who spent some
time in Hawaii five years ago, inVes-
tigating the rubber and sisal possibili-
ties, and who is well remembered by
many Honolulans. was killed in rebel
raid in Mexico on April 20. A despatch
from the City of Mexico. dated April
80, gives the particulars, as follows:
"The week end special train for
Cuernavaca, seventy-fve miles south of
here, was shot up and wrecked by rebels
last night at FL Parue, few miles from
it's destination. Three passengers and
negro porter were killed and several
Others We're injured, The engineer is
missing.
Among those killed was DR.. Pehr
Olssen-Seffer, botanist of repute, who
formerly was attached to the depart
ment of the Mexican government as an
expert in rubber culture. A brother of
DR.. 0lssen-Seffer is at Madison, Wiscon-
sin, attending the State university.
1T is not to be expected that any in
ternational controversy will ensue as
the result of the killing of DIR. OLSEN
Setter, for it is doubtful if he could
have established his rights to citizen
ship in any country. His parents, who
are yet living near Oakland, California,
are Swedes.
He was born in Finland, but when
boy went TO Australia where he lived
for many years. From Australia he
went to California, where he became an
instructor in botany in the University
of California.
"There he was married to an Ameri. /
can girl and some years ago he came TO /
Mexico. To his friends the doctor fire. I
quently said he was one Of those men
without a country. At the time of his
death he was vice consul here for Por.
tugal.
"a few weeks ago he was chosen fur
the chair Of botany in the newly created
Mexican university.
" A. tropical agrleulturist DR.. OILS,
sen.Seifer was regarded as an expert.
To study the rubber industry he was
sent on tour through the tropical
world by the government and since his
return be has been closely Identified

STOPPED
At PROVIDING FUNDS

81 am very clever 6nancier and
all that but I do not see how can do
it," jOkingly remarked Treasurer D.
L. Conkling yesterday afternoon, when
asked how he was going to pay $4,000
in refund merchandise licenses when
the legislature only appropriated $4,000
for the purpose.
These license fees were imposed for
the privilege of selling foreign mer-
chandise but the Hawaiian supreme
court declared their collection illegal
on the ground that as congress alone
can regulate taxation on foreign com.
merce the system was unconstitutional.
The last legislature passed a law pro
viding for the payment of $4,000.
which is less than one-half the amount
involved.
Treasurer Conkling has no right to
pay the claimants proportionate
amount, so he says that all he can
do is to let someone sue him for a
refund Of the license fees and then
the matter will be up to the courts to
dispose of.

Judge A. N. Kepoikai, former treas
urer of the Territory of Hawaii, and
at one time Judge of the circuit court
at Wailuku, Maui, died yesterday morn
ing at his home in Wailulru, after
suffering a second stroke of paralysis
on Friday. The remains were inferred
yesterday afternoon.
He was born in Wailuku on Decem-
Der II, 1861, and was therefore in his

Kepoikai was educated in the common
schools of WailukG, and graduated
from Lahainaluna Seminary in 1879.
He went to Punahou College in 1881
remaining there until the epidemic
of smallpox in that year carried away
his father, when he returned to Maui,
not having graduated from the insti-
tuition. In 1886 he was appointed dis
trict magistrate of Waikiki holding
that office until 1892, when Queen Lii.
liuokalani gave him the appointment
of judge of the circuit court of the
second judicial circuit ON Maui. This
office he held until the proclamation
of the Republic of Hawaii which call
ed for every public Office to be declar-
ed vacant by September 1, 1894. On
that date he stepped down from the
bench and took up the practise of law,
continuing in this until his appoint
ment as treasurer of the Territory by
Governor Dole.
In 1898 he was elected a senator from
Mani. In 1900 he became member of
the first Fire Claims Commission,
which commission, however, was de-
elared nulls When the second and

AYRES VISITED
A REBEL CAMP
DROPPED IN on GEN. MADERo
ON his WAY TO
HONOLULU.

Herbert Melton Ayres, l,amaaipa,
poet, writer and pedestrian, returned
from England yesterday on the liner
Siberia. via Juarcz, Mexico, whore he
saw the fighting faeturs IN FUN war
paint
On his way home to Honolulu Mr.
Ayres met DIR. Francisco Velasquez
Gomez, one Of the peace commissioners
chosen by the rebels. with his news
paper instinct Ayrcs stuck 10 Doctor
Gomez like leech and had the pleasure
OF receiving an invitation to 70 down
to Mexico with him aud look over the
war situation.
Unfortunately Ayres had forwarded
his typewriting machine direct to Ho-
nolulu and when he approached the bor
der he was armed only with a pair of
field glasses and mosquito netting. He
crossed the border with the pence com
missioner and soon found himself in
the camp of the rebels.
The one conspicuous feature which
impressed the Honolulan was the un-
sanitary condition of the camp. Cat
tie were killed in the camp and the
offal allowed to remain there without
being burned or buried, bonanza for
flies and other insects, so that the camp
fairly swarmed with winged nuisances.
The rebels as well as the federals were
resting ON their arms when Doctor
Gomez and Ayres were in the camp.
Owing TO his desire to catch the Siberia,
Ayres could not remain long in the
camp and he left it and thought the
dove of peace would finally alight there
and make nest. He was rather sur
prised when he read the dispatches in
yesterdays Advertiser to the effect that
the rebels had been fighting in the
streets of Juarez the night before. He
believes they will win out in that sec
ton.
He found that American sympathy
there is largely with the rebels and that
although they might not be giving ma
terial aid TO the revolutionary cause
their moral support was worth some
thing.
As to General Madero he did not be-
lieve that in the event of rebel success
that Madero would be the choice of
the revolntioRists as president of Mex
leo. While he is immensely wealthy,
and is regarded as a multimillionaire
and is therefore financing the rebellion,
yet he is not regarded as good presi-
Dental material. AS an organizer and
military genius he is the idol of the
Mexican insurgents.
Mr.. Ayres was greeted royalty on his
return yesterday He stated that in
England he had followed all the sports
events closely. He will shortly resume
his work with The Advertiser.

KOREAN TELLS OF HIS
COMMITMENTS PILIKIA

A Korean who recently arrived in
Honolulu after having visited his ma.
tive country for several months, gives
a startling story of acts of repression
which the Japanese officials are visit
ing 1pon the Korean people, some of
which, he declares, he had personal
knowledge of, being subjected to many
indignities.
The Korean, according to statements
made in the local Korean press, was
travelling secretly through Korea. He
went there expecting to find Korea
Japanized and progressing, but found
that conditions were quite to the con
trary.
First of all he found that assem-
blages of more than ten Koreans are
not permitted by the Japanese police.
While he was travelling he was taken
to various police stations, his arrests
and detentionS numbering thirteen.
When he landed at Kusan his baggage
was subjected to a minute inspection.
In his luggage was sort of storyboolS.
The Japanese police seemed to think it
was incendiary, for they scanned every
page and finally destroyed it. 1t was
book for children.
Licenses for brewing bean sauce
were granted to only few people and
one kitchen knife only was permitted
for three families to make joint use of.
This measure was invented to prevent,
if possible, Koreans having possession
of knives which they might use as
weapons against the Japanese.
In the northwestern part of Korea
the traveller reports that he found the
Koreans suffering from a terrible
famine.
