LOCAL MERCHANTS
TROUBLED BY VETO

The vetoing of the army appropria-
ton bill by President Taft, in addi-
ton to rendering the army officers and
enlisted men of the Department of Ha-
wall payless and foodless on and af-
ter July /, has also the effect of render,
ing army contracts of little or no
value, in n strict technical sense.
Officers state that the lack of ap-
preparations will affect practically
every contract for the supply of food
stuffs and building materials, except in
such cases where appropriations have
been previously provided for.
All contracts for food win probably
have to be fulfilled, although Uncle
Sam may not have funds with which
to pay Immediately. The contractors
are under obligations to furnish so
much of this and that for men and
animals connected wit the army ser
vice, and in all probability will take
a chance about getting paid by the
government.

A GOOD COLOR
The Badge of Health in
Cheeks and Lips.

The fact that one woman is bright
eyed, rosy-cheeked, strong and cheerful,
while another is pale, weak and de-
pressed is due more often than other
wise to the condition OF the blood. The
way to remedy this condition is to build
up the blood and for this purpose there
is no better tonic than DIR. Williams
Pink Pills. They are for both men and
women but they benefit the latter in a
special way.
II your daughter is languid, has a
pale, sallow complexion, is short of
breath, especially on going upstairs,
has palpitation OF the heart, tendency
to faint and poor appetite, she suf-
fers from lack Of blood. Mistakes or
delay in the treatment may result In
such serious impairment of her health
that she will be weak and sickly during
the rest of her life. The tonic must be
safe and harmless as well as effective.
DR.. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale Peo-
pie possess tho qualities. They are
recommended by one who has used
them as follows:
Mias Jessie Johns, of Gladstone, Ore. 4,

after suffering year and half. She
says;

President Gignoux of the merchants

directors of the association unanimous
ly believe that the city should contri-
butte $4,000 toward the building of the

The promotion committee aud the
board Of supervisors are believed to be
on a friendly basis once more, for the
promotion committee has replied to the
resolution of the board censuring the
committee for employing Walter G.

Mr.. Smith Is statements as to his pur-
poses while away, are satisfactory to

The reply from Secretary II. p. Wood
of the promotion committee to the
supervisor s resolution, was as follows:
al would herewith acknowledge re.
eeipt of copy of Resolution No. 666

such Wlue publlclty on tine MAINLAND
tending to inJure the fair name of Ha-

MAN GOES HOME
AND SHOOTS WIFE
Fires Five Shots When She Asks
for Money, but She VIII
Recover.
lFrOm wednesday,. Adyertiscr.l

AAAVm wednesday , auNeftiSer.l
Robert Rowe, aged forty, yesterday
afternoon shot his wife in their home
on Alapai Lane, Palama, but failed
to kill her instantly, because he used
small twenty-five caliber revolver.
Rowe is now in Jail The injured
woman is at Queen s Hospital where,
it was stated last night that she will
recover. Rowe fred FIVE shots in all
hut only two took effect. One plowed
across her scalp and the other, enter.
ing the right temple, lodged behind
the ear. 1t has not yet been ex,
tracted, but it is said the wound will
not be fatal.
There were two witnesses to the
shooting, one their daughter. Annie.
and the other a native woman, Mrs.
Mathew Kalaluhi. The daughter was
between the man and wife when her
father fired. She says she heard the
first shot while in the kitchen.
According to the story told by both
witnesses, Rowe came home about
half-past three in the afternoon. His
wife was standing at the door hold
ing her infant in her arms.
Do you want any money!" Rowe
is said to have asked as he reached
the steps.
"Yes,'' replied his wife.
Without saying another word the
husband is said to have pulled his gun
and fred five shots in rapid success
sion. Mrs. Rowe fell where she
stood and he walked over her body
into the house.
A frantic call was sent into the
police station and this was answered
by Sergeant Kamahu and Officer Pau
ahi. The woman was then rushed to
the hospital. Under the guidance of
neighbors the two officers found Rowe
in an adjoining room where it is said
he was making frantic efforts to re-
load his gun. Before he was able to
. fire it, however, the officers had
jumped on him and taken it away.
He was removed to Jail.
"The darned thing went wrong or
l would have done better" was his
, only comment.
From the moment Rowe was put in
his cell he began half-insane antics.
He stripped his last stitch of clothes
from him. Folding his arms across
his chest he commenced to walk
around in circle, and kept this up
for hours at time. Occasionally he
stopped and yelled at the top of his
voice.
Acting Chief Kellett who has known
Rowe for long time proved con
clusively later in the evening that the
man was not crazy. The detective
laughed at him for supposing the
police such fools as to be taken in
by his queer stunts but Rowe only
muttered "Under the December
snow
Finally Kellett hauled off as if to
hit the man and he Evoke up" quick
ly. "Well, I'll tell you, Johnny"
he said, "last Saturday l came home
and my son-in-lay beat me up and
threw me out of the house. Today,
when / went home my wife wanted
some money and told me to go to
the store and get some change
went and haven t been back yet.
Nonsense, laughed Kellett, what
were you trotting around here naked
fort"
81 was worrying about my wife"
''What did you do to your wife9"
Nothing" replied Rowe doggedly.

HONOLULU GROWING
Population of the City Given as
1898 and That of Terri
tory $4,000.

The population of the city of Homo
lulu is given as 81, 1893 and that of the
Islands as l9l ,909 in the 1912 directory
of Hawaii which has just been issued
by the Polk-Husted Directory Company.
The book contains valuable informal
ton which indicates remarkable
growth of Honolulu during the past
year.
There are LAG pages in the book and
of this number GAS pages are devoted to
Honolulu residents and business firms.
Hawaii has 1872 pages, Maui 81 pages,
Kauai IS and Molokai, Lanai and Ka-
Aoolawe eight. Valuable business in
dexes are also part of the book. The
growth of the Islands over that of last
year is shown by the fact that ffty-six
additional pages have been added to
the book.
The directory will be a regular pro-
motion agent for it will carry authori-
tntive information about the Islands

development of Pearl HarboT, and of
the numerous industries.
The fOreword contains the following
paragraph:
Hawaii has often been styled the
Crossroads of the Pacific. The compile,
tion of the Isthmian canal will justify
and confirm this appellation beyond a
doubt, and its ports will receive add.
tional rank and importance. Even now
the Islands furnish trade and com
merce with the United States of greater
tonnage and value than any country
except Great Britain and this with only
che one staple industry of sugar

PROPOSED ROUTE BLOCKED
P. S. G. May Change Eastern
District Line.

With reference to the final legalization
of various routes in the dual system
Chairman Wilcox Of the Public Service
Commission said yesterday:
"As yet we have not received quito
sufficient consents to legalize the Eastern
District route in Brooklyn. Recent con-
ferences with representatives of the Long
Island Railroad Company have disclosed
the fact that IL is willing TO consider the
sale to the city Of a portion Of the Ever
green branch, to be used as part OF the
14th street route through the Eastern
District Of Brooklyn. At the time that
the commission laid out this route there
appeared TO be some difficulty in obtain
Ing this right of way Of the Long Island
Railroad.
Present developments indicate that the
commission may be enabled to change
this route, which is destined to be an ex-
ceedingly important part Of the Brooklyn
Rapid Transit system. The possible
change would be the running Of the route
over the Long Island right Of way from
about Flushing avenue to Cooper avenue.
and then along Moffet avenue to some
point near Evergreen avenue, and then
on the old right Of way OF the Long ISL
and Railroad and above the Brooklyn
Rapid Transit line on Fulton street. and
along Vesta avenue to a connection with
the Canarsie Railroad"
Chairman Wilcox said this possible
change would receive careful and prompt
consideration by the commission, and
would be adopted if it was entirely FEAST
BILE and economical.

against such action, the original mover CT
the motion withdrew it. and the associd-
ton went on record as adopting policy
of hands off" in reference to the candi-
dates for places on the bench in the cam
pagn.
