Jack had fully unwound himself.

a weak heart from over-eating

This was perfectly true, but did
not add to the peace of the occa-

Jack wasn't thrown out. He
walked out, breathing horrible

STILL TALKING OF
CUTTING JUDGESHIPS
Local Attorneys Discussing Proposal of
Democrats = Attorney General
Opposes Reduction.

The prospect of decrease in the
number of circuit judges in the Terri
tory is being good deal discussed
among local attorneys, as it persists in
remaining live proposition in Wash
ington, as part of the Democratic
cheeseparing program.
Some lawyers believe the county of
Hawaii might get along with one less
circuit judge, and that perhaps Homo
lulu court business could be handled
with one less than at present. But the
general sentiment is In favor of keep
ing up the present organization all over
the Islands.
cit is probably true" said Attor-
ney-General Lindsay yesterday, "that
there is not enough work in some of
the circuits to keep the judges employ
ed, but their presence is necessary just
the same. Considering the matter of
actual work done, it might probably be
shown that the judges Of the circuits
on Maui, Kauai and West Hawaii do
not do more work, all three of them,
than one judge could do. But we have
to take into consideration the fact that
it is often necessary to have circuit
judge available. Habeas corpus pro-
ceedings, restraining orders, ETC., call
for the prompt attention of judge on
the spot, and there might be crises in
which it would work injustice if the

without judge of court of record. /"
According to the discussion among
attorneys, the program of reduction
may also lead to the cutting out of
one of the federal judges here. In
Washington the matter is being dis
cussed in relation to the volume of
business done, and it is said that the
district of Hawaii is not able to show
enough federal business to warrant the
employment of two federal judges.

FATAL RAILROAD ACCIDENT.

HILo, March 10. "A very peculiar
railroad accident took place at HoIua-
loa, Kona, last week, when Japanese
sugar plantation laborer was found to
have been run over by the plantation
train, although no one knew that this
had happened until after the body was
discovered. The deputy sheriff report
ed that the train had stopped to let
off some laborers. When it started
again, it was found that there was a
body on the track under the train. It
was that of one of the laborers who
had been riding on it. The body was
nor badly crushed, but the skull had
been fractured. 1t is believed that the
man was jolted from his seat when the
train stopped, and that he met his
death by falling under the car.

STAGNANT STOMACH
Thin Blood Hats Digestion More
EfecfuaI!y Than a Majority
of People Think.

In the human body, when the blood
becomes thin and impure, the different
organs fail to do their work properly
One of the first to fail is the stomach
and right here most sufferers from i'm
pure blood make q serious mistake.
They imagine because their digestion
Is poor, that something is wrong with
the stomach itself. A reduction in the
amount of nourishment taken often
makes matters worse.
The truth in such cases Is that the
stomach is failing to do its work well
because it is not receiving sufficient
supply of pure, red blood.
Such a sufferer should take thorough
treatment for the blood with DR.. Will
iams' Pink Pills for Pale People. These
pills actually make new, red blood and
give strength and tone to the entire
system.

Tangible Money Loss.
Absences, then, means tangible
money loss of over $4,000 a year.
Yet this loss is slight in comparison
with the less tangible one in scholar
ship. Not only do those who habitual-
ly absent themselves from school lose
ground thereby, but since they are ia
turally the backward ones, they retard
the whole class when they do come.
For the sake Of our own regulations as
