A doctor says that a 20-pound
baby crying one hour exerts two
tons of energy. Can't somebody
invent a way to harness the cry
and use it to heat and light the
house?
And then, some of the surplus
power might be used to turn the
ice cream freezer in the next fiat;
so the neighbors wouldn't mind.

reported that two sisters, the last
of the Ackermans, fed from the
farm today.
There is just one Alderman sis

relatives, far from the death
farm for months.
The farm itself is deserted. The
last Alderman to live there was
John, A years old. He died
natural death two weeks ago.
+ Old residents say the death
farm stories afflict the Chicago
newspapers as regularly as the
measles or crooked politics.
The farm first became known
as the death farm about Is years
ago. At that time a family of
five, whose names hav been for

In 1906 Godfrey Palm, his wife

WAILUKU, July 1.-THE Maui
polo team had its last practice game
last Wednesday. The lineup was as
follows: First team (Reds), A. w

win 8, and d. r. Flemming 4. Blues
w. Clark /, J. B. Thompson 2, Steele

Six very fast eight-minute periods
were played, and though the reds won
by a wide margin, the second team
put up hot fight, and succeeded IN
getting the balltin the reds territory
repeatedly.
One could not fail to be impressed
with the excellent team work and
steady hitting of the first team in the
pinches.. Great credit is due to
Frank Baldwin, the captain of the
team, for his pafnstaking efforts in
bringing the team to its present high
state of efficiency.

Gentlemen
In the month of Feb. 1912, ii was
my privilege to make a visit to the
extinct crater of HaIeakala, on the
island of Maui, reached via your line
of steamers; and it is pleasure to
speak a few words of commentator
regarding the trip.
At the time of my journey, this ex-
cursion had not reached the same de-
gree of popularity as that to the ac-
tive crater of Kilauea, and il was
rather difficult to get much informa.
ton before starting It seems that
the people of Honolulu do not as a
rule realize that Haleakala is world
wonder, and they are unable to create
much enthusiasm in the mind of the
tourist.
While the crater of Kflauea with
its lake of fire Halemaumau is the
greatest living Volcano. and it alone
rs worth going thousands of miles to
see, at the same time the other crat-
er should not be overlooked, as it has
no counterpart on this sphere.
Il is impossible to compare the two
attractions, as they differ widely in
their phenamena, and each has charms
that are exclusively its own.

mary was under discussion, Senator
Borah, whom both sides concede to

Johnson to change the primary law

son at least. He won primarily as a
champion of the peoples interests
on a spontaneous wave of popularity
due to some extent TO the natural re-
occurrence of the time when the pub

Graves a change.
OF course he used the same meth
ods--or many of them-used by the
bosses he overturned, but when he
went into Office his record was fol-

cord.
But johnson and his lieutenaats

this of necessity has meant some al

some temporizing, some agreements

opponents are closing ranks for 8

Already there are whisperings in
political ears that Johnson is using
California as a stepping stone to the
Vice Presidency on Roosevelt's ticket
Get good speaker to drive that fact
home and barb has been stuck in
the Governors political hide. John
sons bitter attack on the two Taft
delegates from San Francisco went
for naught so far as the voting was
concerned. The Taft men, unafraid,
sat tight. But it did bring to light a
bit of politics which if made public
by the newspapers is already a
matter of official record would show
up another phase of the Johnsonian
political procedure.

the sunrise penetrating and dispeIlIng
the clouds Is unique beyond descrip-
ton; and as the old crater clears up
/ 1t discloses a scene of beautiful, weird.
and awe inspiring grandeur.
Ny trip up Haleakala was in the
night, through a cloud which hung
low on the mountain, making the
journey one of some difficulty; but
near the top the cloud was left be-
low, and the moon and stars showed
with an exceptional brillancy. When
the summit was reached, the scent re
paid several fold the effort it cost.
The occasional little hardship OF
ascending the mountain at night In
the winter time, with possibility OF
encountering rain and fog, might be
the reason why more do not make
the journey, and If permitted to make
recommendation, / would suggest
that the regular trip be in the day
time. A good rest house should be
maintained at or near the summit,
where tourists could stay in comfort.

that Haleakala has to offer.
| was told that on my ascent, the
best was not seen; but felt well
repaid and satisfied, though glad to
know that on a repeated trip more
might be seen.
The Haleakala excursion Is certain
ly well worth while. One would
scarcely think of going to Athens and
not visit the AcropoIis: Egypt and not
see the Pyramids and Temples: India
and not obtain view of the HimaIa-
vas; nor should they visit the Ha-
waiian Islands without seeing both
Kilauea and HaleakaIa.
Those who do not feel strong
enough to make the horseback trip
to the summit of the volcano, and vet
desire to go as far as possible with
friends, should by all means go to
Waikiki the base for the journey to
Haleakala and visit the beautiful lao
Valley. It of itself Is worth the trip
to Maui. and is an ideal resting place
in the midst of magnificent and charm
ing scenery.
The hotel accommodations at Wal

LORILLARD RITES
In CAPITAL TO-DAY
Body of Woman Who Committed
Suicide in New York Will
Be Buried Here.

The body Of Mrs. Kathleen L. LoriI-
lard, wife of Beekman Lorillard, who
committed suicide by hanging herself
in a New York hotel Saturday afternoon,
i will arrive in Washington to-day, and
will be taken to the Oak Hill Cemetery,
Georgetown, for burial Her husband
and his brother, Louis LoriIlard, will ac-
company the body to Washington.
Funeral services will be held this after
noon in the chapel at the cemetery, with
only the immediate members OF the fam
lily present. Rev. DR.. William Snyder
Will officiate. Interment will be in the
Bester plot. and will be strictly private
The funeral arrangements are in charge
Of Capt. T. NJ. Potts, U. s. N, broth
er-in-law of Mrs. Doyle, who is the only
male relative now in Washington. Mrs
Doyle, II is believed, will be unable to
attend the funeral services. She is pros
trated with grief, and denied herself to
callers yesterday.
Because Of the tragedy of Saturday
and the remembrance Of the suicide OF
Mrs. Pierre Lorillard. jr. three years
ago, the members of the Lorillard fam
fly are extraordinarily depressed at this
time. They are apparently trying to
fathom the mysterious causes that made
these two beautiful women desperate
enough to take their own lives.
Friends in Washington said yesterday
they did not even suspect that Mrs.
Beekman Lorillard ever contemplated
suicide, and were amazed when they
heard she had hanged herself. Word
came from Asheville, n. c., the winter
home of the Lorillards, that Mrs. Loril-
lard had been unhappy for some time.
She never complained that Mr.. LorilIard
was neglecting her. but when they both
were last In Asheville he had a room at
a club and did not stay with his wife at
her mothers home.
There are also said to have been occa-
sional domestic disturbances, but these
were not considered vital. Because of
her illness-Mrs. Lorillard being a suf-
ferer from neurasthenia-it is possible,
her friends say, that she 'magnified her
troubles
