Letters were received here yester
day by Malcolm Macintyre, secretary
of the committee OF stockholders of
the Mountain King Mining and Min
ing Company, which recently en-
ployed Mr.. Burch, mining expert, to
pass upon the property of the com
pany, from George Ross, president of
the company, which are of general
interest to local investors
Mr.. Ross confirms his cable of a
week ago, advising stockholders to
meet the call of a five-cents per share
assessment, and gives his reasons.
The following letter, written on the
18th inst, covers practically the same
ground as one written the day preW-
ously, but also touches upon other
points:
Mr.. Malcolm Macintyre, Secretary
Committee of Hawaiian Stockhold-
ers, Honolulu, T. H.
Dear Sir: In writing you yesterday
l should have stated that a resolution
was passed by the board of directors
to the effect that the call of five cents
per share is to be regarded as loan
to the company, to be refunded to the
stockholders out of the first surplus
from the mill, with interest at the
rate of six per cent. per annum
would strongly recommend that
the stockholders avoid the necessity

ADULTERATIoN FRAUD.

1t is reported that the Pinectar
Sales Company is taking steps toward
having certain bottling firms in this
city and elsewhere prosecuted under
the pure food act for adulterating
their product and labelling it "Pinec-
tar"
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1912-02-23
ADVICE OF PRESIDENT ROSS
TO MOUNTAIN KING INVESTORS

of closing down operations at the
mine until Mr.. Burch's report is re-
ceived, for, in the event of his report
warranting continuance of operations,
it would be a loss of time and money
to shut down now, as stated in my let
ter of yesterday 1t will probably be
at least a month before Mr.. Burch's
report reaches Honolulu and the
stockholders there are able to act
upon it. In the meantime, operating
expenses for labor and material have
to be met and another payroll is now
due, so you can understand that the
money is needed.
AS the Hawaiian stockholders have
gone to the expense of emplying Mr..
Burch to make this investigation, they
should protect themselves at least UNI
til his report is received.
Up to the present time $500 has
been received on this call, of which
$2774.96 has been paid by the Hawaii
an stockholders. OF this there is only
$4OO left, with January payroll due
and sundry bills for supplies to be
met.
The annual report of the secretary
and superintendent is now in the
hands of the printer, and will be sent
to the stockholders next week.
Yours very truly,
GEO. ROSS,
Drogidauf

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Aug. S-Condl-
tons which have prevailed at the
workhouse have become known to
the evil doors and for the time being
at least, that county institution is
not popular among them. Henry
Williams, negro. charged with the
theft of a pair of shoes, refused :hir-
ty days in the workhouse in the sec
ond criminal court and took one year
in the state penitentiary.
Williams, when arraigned, pleaded
guilty. When called before the bar
he pleaded with the court to send
him to the penitentiary for one year
instead of giving him thirty days in
the workhouse.
Use heard tell about that work
house, jedge. and | sure would rather
go to Nashville" pleaded the negro.
The court granted his rather
unique request.

|MAURY COUNTIAN
IS MAKING GOOD
W. E. HARRISON, FORMERLY OF
lEFTWIcH RECEIVES HAND
SOME OFFER FOR MUSEUM.

w. E. Hardison, formerly of Maury
county, member of the we'll kaogn
Harrison family of the eastern part
Of the county and brother of W. T.
Hardison, of Leftwich Bridge has
made good in Chattanooga, his adopt
ed home. Mr.. Harrison went to the
Lookout City several years ago and
established war relic museum and
has prospered.
According to the Chattanooga News
Mr.. Harrison has just sold for $500
an option on the museum to J. Sam
Morton, capitalist of Muskogea
Okla, for the purchase of the muse.
UNI at the price Of $4,000.
The option holds good for four
months and the belief Is expressed
that the trade will be consummated
before that time and the price Of $50,
900 will be paid to Mr.. Hardison.
The following is taken from the
News:
u. Sam Morton, OF Muskogee
Okla, who arrived In the city from
Cleveland Wednesday afternoon and
is stopping at the Read House, has
secured an option ON the war mu
scum on Lookout Mountain, for its
purchase within four months for the
sum of $4,000. He will endeavor to
raise this sum by popular subscrip
ton for the purchase of the property
and then an additional $4,000, max.
ing a total of $4,000, for the cree.
ton of brown stone building into
which to put the relics contained in
the museum. The whole thing will
then, if Mr.. Morton's plans work out,
be turned over to the United Daugh
tiers of the Confederacy, in fee sim
pie.
"Mr. Morton feels confident over
his plan. The idea struck him Sun
day afternoon, while visiting the nlu,
scum, and on the following day he
purchased an option from w, E. Har.
olson, owner of the museum for $500
"Mr. Morton's idea is for the
Daughters of the Confederacy to have
the site occupied by the museum to
balance things. as the north Is al

PLENTIFUL CROP
YIELD PROMISED
THROUGHOUT STATE
RAINS DID SOME DAMAGE BUT
THE OUTLOOK IS
GOOD.
JULY CROP REPORT IS GOOI
Fair Weather Past Two Weeks Has
Helped Conditions-Present Potat
to Crop Will Exceed the One OF
Last Year.

NASHVILLE, Aug. Capt. T. F.
Peck, commissioner OF agriculture,
has prepared a summary of the July
crop report which is as follows:
The fair weather over the state
during the past ten days or two
weeks has served to put the farmers
of the state of Tennessee in a more
hopeful frame of mind than they
were during the continued wet
weather of the first weeks of July.
While many of the crops are date the
indications are that the yield will be
good. Corn was damaged by the
rains, and cotton was late and in
many places there is a bad stand,
and the crop will not equal that of
last year.
Wheat was damaged in the shock,
but the reports indicate that the
yield of oats will exceed that of last
var by nearly third.
Unfavorable reports regarding the
tobacco crop have been received from
some sections of the dark tobacco
district, while the prospects are re-
ported very good in other sections,
and it seems that the production this
year will be an average crop. Some
sections of Stewart, Dickson and
Montgomery counties report bad
prospect for the crop of tobacco.
The condition of stock peas is re-
reported good, and the production
will exceed that of 1911. Millet will
also show a greater production than
last year, and the percentage of the
hay crop saved will be one-fftn or
one-fourth more than in 1911.
The potato crop for this year will
be larger than for last year and the
increased yield will be especially not
ed in the Irish potatoes.
In the market gardening sections
of the state tomatoes are reported
in good condition, with prospects for
an increased production.
Glover is shown to be in good con-
dition, with nearly a full crop, and
the reports also indicate that in many
counties the farmers are getting
good stands of alfalfa.
In the peanut belt the indications
are that the yield will be considera-
bly, increased over last year, and
with good prices for the product, will
be a considerable source of revenue
to the farmers of that section.
Pastures are reported good in near
ly all sections of the state, and live
stock are reported in better condi-
tion than last year.

being nearest the front and seeing
the situation first climbed to the
front seat and got hold Of the lines,
and managed to keep the team in the
middle of the road for a couple Of
hundred yards, when the coupling
pin in the fifth wheel broke and the
horses and the front wheels fortunate
ly parted company with the remand
or Of the hack. During the race Mr..
Fariss was thrown out, and while not
hurt was perhaps the worst shaken
up Of the party

runaways coming and notified W. B.

party to complete the trip to the
springs.
When the driver was approached
by Mr.. Fariss he said that team had
runaway only q short time previous
with Mrs. Mckinney, Miss Camille
Herndon, and others, but that it was
the only alternative except to walk,
and the change was made and the
trip completed without further incl
deut.
With two runaways, one hack
broken down, another turned over
and all heavily loaded with the ex-
ception of the one in which was Mr..
Wobten and party, it is little short ot
miraculous that there was not one
or more seriously If not fatally injur-
ed.
One of the principal features of the
incident was Mrs. Fariss' act in
climbing over the seat in front and
securing the lines after the negro
driver had abandoned his efforts to
control the frightened horses.
Mr.. Fariss returned this morning
and says he is still nervous over the
occurrence.
