SHIRLEY BART0S DEATH CAUSED BY |1ALNC GASOLINE FUMES
Prominent Minot Young Man Found
Dead in Partial Car of Gasoline at
The Standard Oil Co.'s Plant

Just how Mr.. Barton came to be
on the tank is not known, unless
he went up to look into the tank to
see how much gasoline was in it or it
is possible that he was going tc al
just something. A gasoline engine
is used to pump the gasoline from
the car into the tank and he had not
yet started the engine.
AS soon as it became known that
the young man was in the tank, Judge
Murray and others hurried to the
scene and after working for half an
hour, succeeded in removing the
body with graphing hooks. The re-
mains were taken to Rowan's
morgue.

young men were also with her. Mrs.
Armitage tells an ~~Esly different
story, and so far as the police have
been able to learn. she was alone ex-
cept for Armitage. She says that the
gun was fired as she ran from the
room, and her husband, admitting the
shot frankly, says emphatically that
he pointed the gun at the floor, but
the carpet was thin and the bird shot,
glancing, struck Mrs. Armitage. A
telephone call was sent to the police
from a neighbor's house, and Mrs. Ar
mitage was taken to Queens Hospital,
while Armitage was detained at the
station.
Personal friends say that Armitage
was awakened suddenly and undoubt-
eddy imagined he saw others than
Mrs. Armitage, but that it is known
she was alone in the house except for
her husband Mrs Armitage's injuries
are not regarded as serious. ...-

BOY SCOUTS OF HONOLULU.
MAY GET TRIP TO HOLLAND

Scoutmaster Wilder is considering
a proposition to take the eight best
boys of the troop to Holland with him
as a reward for good conduct, and will
act as escort himself. He is of the
opinion that $4,000 would cover the ex
penses of the eight boys and that there
ought not to be any trouble in obtain
ing a donation for the purpose.
Another piece of business to be
transacted will be the adoption of
bylaw which will make a standard
of conformity to be followed by Boy
Scout troops all over ~ world. Ac-
cording to Scoutmastet' Wilder, the
local effect of the adoption of this
bylaw will be to do away with the
competition between the different
posts in the various districts in the
Territory.

PRIVATE OWNERSHIP
OF RAIL WAYS

Certain propcg7ndists hold that Gov
eminent ownership of railways is a
progressive policy-the policy of civil
lization, at it were. Indeed, it has
been widely stated that Government
ownership of railways has made great
strides among the leading nations OF
the world. But let us see how the
facts stand. This we are enabled to do
with the aid of statistics recently pub
lished in detail by the Railway Age
Gazette. At the outset il is ap.opos
to state that the railway mileage Of
the world on January 1, 1910, was
638,611 miles. Of that sum, i50.65S
miles, or 7e.5 per cent, were owned
by private companiet, while govern

cent. Of course, most of the priyatel,
owned lines are held in this country,
