HIS HAND BLOWN
OFF, by GIANT
POWDER STICK

While striving to do something a lit
tie out of the ordinary in celebrating
the death of the old year and the birth
of the new, Robert Kaleihiena, black
smith at Waialua, lost his right hand
Sunday night. All Waialua took hand
in celebrating the closing hours of the
old year by making as much noise as
possible. Fireeraekers were one OF the
means of getting rid of their surplus
enthusiasm, but Kaleihiena went them
one or two better by using sticks of
giant powder. He held one in his hand
too long after touching of the fuse.
The stick blew his hand to pieces mutt
lating the arm above the wrist.
The police were called in and the
man was given medical treatment. The
injury Is a very serious one, but will
not prove fatal

KAU DITCH BILL
MAKES PROGRESS
By ERNEST G. WALKER.

WASHINGTON, December l9.-One
little, bit of progress in Hawaiian mat
tiers is to be recorded here of the last
few days. 1t has to do with the Kau
Ditch bill, which the house committee
on Territories has just reported favor
ably. There seems to be no. prospect
that the bill will be considered by the
house before the holidays, for congress
adjourns Thursday (day after tomor
row. and the bill could hardly be reach
ed on any call Of committees by that
time.
However it win be high up on the
calendar and one might expect it to
be reached, perhaps, along in the mid
die of January. John T, McCrosson
and Z. M. Watson, who are here urg-
ing the legislation are highly pleased
at the prospect of getting the Legislation
enacted early. 1t is easier to get ac-
ton on such measures usually in the
senate, but thus far the senate has
done nothing because its committees
are unwilling to undertake the consider
alton of any bills till after Christmas.
All of Delegate Kalanianaole party
are still at the Dewey Hotel, including
Col. Sam Parker, Attorney Ashford
and others. But they will probably
dispense within a few days for trip
into the South. They are talking Of
going TO Pinehurst, s. c., for a few
days during the holiday season.

BAIL DENIED
AN IMMIGRANT
Wife of Chinese Must Stay at
immigration Station Pend
ing Appeal.
(From Wednesdays Advertiser

(From Wednesdays Advertiser.)
Chong Shee was denied bail by Judge
Clemens in federal court yesterday.
The matter had been taken up to him
by the attorney for the plaintiff Sat
urday, and decision given yesterday.
The woman is being held at federal i'm
migration station on account of ira
choma. Her husband is a Chinese
American citizen, having been born in
Hawaii.
He married her in China a couple of
years ago and she arrived here last
month, but was denied admission on
tho ground that she was suffering from
an infectious disease. She was called
an alien immigrant, though she was the
wife of an American citizen, and under
that rule she was held to be deported.
The case has been fought in the local
federal court and taken on appeal to
the mainland. Bail was asked for while
the appeal was pending, but was de-
MED by the court here. She will re-
main in the custody of the immigration
authorities.

FUNDS ARE VOTED
FOR SIX MONTHS
Appropriation BIN Passes Super
visors-0ne Dissenting
Vote.

But one amendment was made to the
Appropriation bill as passed last night
by the board Of supervisors, that being
an appropriation Of 5000 from the gen.
eral fund for waialua road district, to
make the amount received during the
last three months Of the haf.year 5000
a month, the same as received for the
first three months.
Eben Low tried to start something by
trying to cut down police, FIRE depart
ment promotion committee, mayor S en-.
tertainment, donation Kapiolani Park,
maintenance of parks, and police patrol
wagon, thus saving $4,000, devoting
part of this to roads and leaving an
emergency fund of $4,000
None of the supervisors would argue
the point, Mcclellan saying merely that
they had got to pass the bill and there
was $4,000 from merchandise licenses
due at the end of the period which
would help out if too much had been
appropriated for the revenues.
Murray said he was willing to pass
the bill first reading and stand behind
ut as he believed it right, and it was
passed first reading ana ordered to
print on motion of Mcclellan, seconded
by Kruger. Low voted no, and Dwight
was excused as he wanted to talk after
irollcall and was told he was out of or
ider, SO he would not vote.
AS passed, the bill carries an appro-
priation of $3O7,9 $50 from the general
fund for salaries and maintenance, $s7,.
200 for permanent improvements, $780,
$50 from road tax special fund for
roads and bridges, $3.50 from school
fund for maintenance of schools, $4,000
from interest and sinking fund for in
iterest on bonds.
In full the appropriation bill for the
six months reads:

POPE STATES THAT
WILSON is CAPABLE

81 have heard nothing about the
Wilson affair except what has appeared
in the newspapers, said w. II, Pope,
superintendent of public instruction,
last evening, "and it is nothing with
which 1 have anything to do until the
court officials investigate the matter
as it stands now. Should they arrest
Wilson for the alleged crimes, then, of
course, he will be dropped from the
rolls of the department at once"
The question was asked Mr.. Pope in
connection with the published charges
against H. e. Wilson. Discussing the
matter at length Mr.. Pope said that
Wilson had one of the best schools in
the Territory and had been at Hilea
for several years He had been in the
service since 1894.
"There have been reports from time
to time against Wilson, but nothing
ever came of them upon investigation, "
said Superintendent Pope. ''Our super
vising principal for Hawaii is ono of
the most efficient in the service, and
she has investigated the report that
Wilson was "stillp drunk. At no
time did she ever find q trace of liquor
on his breath.
"Then, reports have been made Of
his conduct in other ways, but they
could never be substantiated. The SUI
pervising principal has passed his
schoolhouse as early as six O'Clock in
the morning and found the door of the
manual training department open and
the teacher at work sweeping out and
getting ready for school.
Don't Believe Charge.
GAS to this charge, 1 don't believe
it, myself, This girl of his is seven
teen years of age and she had trouble
with her father some time ago. She
was sentenced to the industrial school
here and has been living with another
man. From what hear, 1 think the
whole lot of girls are bad, and that
the daughter is using them to get even
with her father.
"He has a family of seven children,
and is, as I said, a good worker in
school affairs. / am not sticking up
for him. I am expressing merely my
opinion of the affair" concluded Mr..
Pope.

Two Citizens Made.

THE TAFT SUPREME COURT.

With the appointment Of Chancellor
pitney Of New Jersey TO fiji the vacan-
" caused by the death Of Justice Har-
an. President Taft has named a ma
ority of the Supreme Court, besides
levating one of its members to the
hief justiceship. This is a response
hility such as has fallen to no other
president except Washington.
President Taft's appointments have
been good. He is a careful lawyer him
self. has been a Judge and takes deep
interest in maintaining the dignity and
worth OF the bench. Notwithstanding
he attacks that have been made or
some of his appointments. it is doubt
ful If a handful Of responsible men
could be found in the country who
would favor the recall OF any one Of his
appointees. The supreme court, owing
to the Taft system Of appointments, is
now largely made up Of comparatively
young, active and industrious men. It's
work demands them, and they have
been found.
The present supreme court is bound
to be historic because in the nature
Of things it will go a long time without
much change in personnel. and the
cases now before 1t and to be brought
before it affect the very foundations Of
our industry. 1t may be taken for
granted that the president has given
his best thought to his selections.
The naming Of a supreme justice is
not altogether In the hands OF the
president The Senate can stop a NOM
inee on the threshold. There are
enough Progressives in the Senate to
make II certain that any man who
reaches the bench is there because his
real fitness is such as to convince
both radicals and conservatives.

AS TO THE THIRD TERM.

In Mr.. Roosevelt's specific case IL
Is sometimes said that his statement
in 1904 and 1907 that he would not
accept another nomination would make
his acceptance OF nomination this
year inconsistent.
What Mr. Roosevelt said in 1904 and
1907 referred, of course. to a consecu-
tive third term.
Mr. Roosevelt believes, although we
10 not share his belief. that the settled
policy % this country makes a third
consecutive presidential term for any
man impolitic. If not improper, but

Philadelphia, Feb. 23.-Congressman
Oscar w. Underwood, of Alabama,
Chairman OF the Ways and Means.
Committee OF the House. deliN cred an
address in this city last night at the
annual banquet of the State SoGetS
of the Cincinnati. His subject was
George Washington. and lac said ia
part.
Washington did not forsee all the
perplexing problems with which we
have to deal today. in our tariff or in
our great corporations, in our cur
rency. in our foreign possessions, or
in a reconciliation of the rights of
labor and capital; he did not foresee
the vast task we all have, whether
native or foreign born, of taking the
new material constantly coming to our
shores and assimilating il into our
growth and moulding il into loyal
and intelligent support Of our institu-
tions; he did not see the menace Of
destructive Socialism nor the extent
TO which. unfortunately we were to
go in substituting party interest for
political principle, though as to this he
gave us paternal warning. Nevcrthe-
less he did foresee sufficient of our
problems TO be able To commend TO us
course the principles of which, if
steadily adhered to. should bring us
safely through all the perils to which
we may be exposed.
While he did not outline the by
laws, so to speak, that must, from
for the detailed life of this country,
he did understand. as no one else
understood, the organic principles upon
which were to rest the security and
the welfare of our national life. And
subject always to his urgent advice
against permanent alliances with for
eign powers. like a high priest among
men, he preached the gospel of toler-
ance, of benevolence. of peace, of rea :
sonableness and of righteousness to-
wards all peoples.
