Roman Leon, a young Porto Rican
plantation laborer, just entering in
his twenty-third year. had been miss
ing from his home ever since the &c
of January, 1912. His whereabouts
were investigated by his relatives and
friends, but not till last Wednesday
morning did the sad news reach them
that he was lying in the Manowaiopae
stream, sleeping his eternal dreamless
sleep. The young man must have
fallen into this stream while on his
way to Papaaloa, the previous Satur-
day night No visible marks of VIC
lence were detected on his body save
a severe bruise on the left side of
his face, which was caused by the fall
on the rocks in the stream.
From the evidence obtained by the
jury, the young man was considerably
on the day of the fatal
accident, and this, in all probability,
was instrumental in guiding his foot
steps in the realm of pathetic dust
This makes the second fatal accident
that is recorded in the history of this
road and it surprises us
that there are so few. 1t is now high
time that the proper authorities de-
vised and constructed a safe guard on
this particular portion of the road.

Bridge Bargain.
LIHUE, February 17-One of the
most important business transactions
up for the consideration by the mem
bers of the Board of Supervisors was
the Makee Sugar Company's proposal
to go partnership on the construction
and maintenance of a bridge across
the river near Kealia. The PROPOSE
ton which the Makee Sugar Company
had to offer was introduced by Mr..
Prosser for the company. The com
pany would give the land and release
the authorities from the obligation to
maintain the bridge on it's present
site. The county was to erect a bridge
over Kealia river strong enough to
carry trains of the county, and pay
the. company $954.S2 and interest
thereon from the date this money was
paid by the company at the request of
the county The company would pay
one-third the cost of the bridge and
one-third of its maintenance. The
proposal was reiected-Gay and Rodri-

Company, by w. F. Sanborn, manager,

The men who do the best work in
the scrimmages this week will be the
ones picked to start the game with
Central College next Saturday.
1T is hard to say just who will be
in the lineup" said Coach Brewer
this morning. but it is safe to say
that the men who do the best fighting
this week, will be the ones to start
the game. However, this does not
mean that Saturdays team will be
the team for the rest of the season.
Saturdays game will be more of an
experiment to get a line on the best
men.
I'VE are expecting hard game
with Central. Their team has been
practicing for. four weeks and ought
to be in fine shape by this time. On
the other hand, our men have only
been out for about a week and have
had very little work"
The lineup probably will be picked
from Wilson. Barton, Hastings,
Groves. Thatcher, Herndon, Clay,
Kemper, Gallagher, Bressler, Knoble.

WITH OTHER WESTERN TEAMS
Light and inexperienced Players Are
Causing Worry.


! Now that the coaches and trainers
are settling down to serious work in
rounding-up their teams for opening
games of the season the difficulties
and woes that beset many of them are
becoming apparent. There seems to
be considerable apprehension notably
at the University of Illinois and the
University of Michigan.
The Illinois graduate staff is fight
ing to whip bunch of light and ex-
perienced players into shape. After
, two days work last week with the
squad the coaches agreed the pros
poets are the most Indifferent they
have been for several years. There
are few of the veterans back, possibly
not more than two and the team will
have to be cleaned from last year
substitutes and the freshman eleven.
At Michigan the difficulty will not
be one of numbers. Coach Yost is
worried about the effect of the change
of rules and the large number of men
that will have to be developed though
there will be promising squad to
choose from. He believes the change
of rules will make it hard going even
for last years regulars and is there
fore none too optimistic over the sea-
sons prospects.
At Purdue prospects are especially
bright. The squad is large and heavy
and with the introduction of the dual
coaching system whereby three
coaches will be employed instead of
two has come a feeling of confidence
throughout the school.
Fifty men out for the squad with
some good material included in the
number makes prospects at Iowa look
promising. And in this number is
included quite number of experi-
enced players.
Coach Stagg is having difficulty
with getting his men hard enough to
withstand the heavy work necessary
to whip his team into shape. Many
of the veterans loafed during the sum-
mer and will have to train hard to get
into the proper condition.

Nearly 400 students have enrolled

They were not so much worried over
the robbery as they were over the fact
that there was dead man in the
house. He was found in the hallway
Of the basement
'Rochot told me he had been work
ing quite late, following set Of CON-
plicated books belonging to a mining
company in which he was largely In
terested. When he retired for the
night he was in a very restless state
and could not sleep. He occupied a
room on the top faer. While he was
tossing In his bed LIE heard a peculiar
noise. 1t sounded to him as If some
one were scrapiEg piece Of metal
against a pipe. His idea was that
the noise was In the street, and was
made by some workmen who had been
at work repairing leak In the water
main in 65th street, near his home
The sound annoyed him, but did not
make him suspicious. 1t continued
steadily, and he would, perhaps, not
have known that the sound came from

safe by thieves for several hours II
he had not heard the stairs leading to

several revolvsrs. He took the larg-
est one and then quietly aroused his
