IS UP-TO-DATE
IN EVERY WAY
KohaIa Plantation Now Has New
Steel-Frame Building and
Machinery.

With its new steel-frame building al.
most erected and its complement of
machinery about to be despatched by
special steamer from here during the
week, the Kohala Plantation will enter
on new era of production and pros
perity shortly, with its mechanical re.
sources greatly enlarged and its facil-
tiles increased.
A general Encouragement of the boil
err room. additional crystalizers and
other improvements have been made
possible by the erection of the new
building, the last material for which
was shipped over to Kohala a month
ago. This was ordered from New York
through the Honolulu Iron Works and
is thoroughly up.to-date in all respects.
The boiler house it replaced is now no
more, all appliances having been moved
out, n steam pillow attached to it and
the whole frame work pulled down. The
old sugar house will be converted into
warehouse.
The improvements will place Kohala
on a new footing. Although its addi.
tons to its mechanical equipment have
not been large, the large amount OF
excellent machinery possessed by the
plantation has been crowded and made
unhandy by its former arrangement
The building just destroyed was erected
in 1862 and this end of the plantation
was compelled to grow up inside OF
that.
Manager George Watt, who is still
in town after the planters annual ses
sion, has been overseeing the shipment
of other parts of the new plant ant
it is expected that the Inter.Islant
steamer Maui will make special triI
this week with the balance of the mate
rial. The manager is anxious to ge
back to the plantation and superinten,
its installation.
Mr.. Watt stated yesterday that tn
new plant would probably be in full
operation by February.

Various Organizations Are TAX
ing Action For Commission
Government.
HOLD MEETINGS THIS WEEK
Civic Federation, Civic League
and Committees to Hear
of Work.

Action is looked for this week in re-
gard to the campaign in favor of the
proposed new city charter. So much in
terest has been aroused in this subject
recently, while so many representative
citizens, including Mayor Fern, who has
stated that he will take up the matter
with some of the Hawaiian societies to
which he belongs, have voiced their be-
lief in the short ballot system of gov
eminent, also known as the commission
form, that those favoring Immediate nc.
tion in the campaign are greatly en-
couraged.
The civic league viii hold a meeting
tomorrow evening at which large at
tendance is expected. Prof. w. A.
Bryan, a member of the special charter
committee of the civic federation, WI
make an illuminating talk upon the va
rious forms of commission government,
explaining in a general way how they
differ and the benefits which munici-
patty finds in this concentrated extract
OF good go, ammont.
On Wednesday n meeting of the eX-
ecutive committee of the civic fedora
ton will be held. at which it is expected
that the committee of three, consisting
of A. l.. MacKaye, Prof. w. A. Bryan
and J. NJ. McChesney, will make its re-
| port as to what has been accomplished
to date regarding organization and in
an educational way. The latest arrange
ment is to have the Governor officially
call joint meeting of representatives
of various organizations to form a
standing citizens committee of twenty
five to conduct the campaign.
1t is probable that the civic fedora
tion will proceed along the educationa
lines it has followed for over year
in this campaign for more perfect
form of municipal government and cal
a meeting of the members of the fedora
ton, and all those interested in tn,
question, at an early date. This meet
ing will take the place at this time O

An early meeting of the committe
which Governor Frear has helped to OF
ganize is also looked for, probably thi
week, although further action may b
postponed until after the holidays.

FARMERS FIGHT UNDER FLAG.

LIMA, Ohio, December 1-Rallying
around an American flag, an army of
two hundred Allen county farmers
armed with picks and shovels, fought
off construction gang of the Chicago
& Erie Railway Company, and refiled
a grade crossing cut near here, undoing
work which had cost the railroad
thousands Of dollars. The clash was
result of the railroad Is refusal to
keep the highway open while a bridge
across the Erie double.tracking was in
the course of construction. Blood
flowed freely in the fight between the
farmers and the railroad iaborers, al.
though no one was seriously hurt.
The farmers hoisted a large Amer.
lean flag at the point of conflict and
declared they would use rifles if neces
sary.

CONTRIBUTIONS ASKED FOR
BY CHINA TO FIGHT RUSSIA

and cowmissary necessary TO an extend
ed campaign.
From advices received here, it is ap.
parent that the Chinese government re.
CARDS the ousting of the Russians from
outer Mongolia as necessary to the
maintenance of the Republic. 1t is
feared that if Russia is permitted to
absorb outer Mongolia without resist
ance, Japan will proceed along the same
lines TO secure inner Mongolia and that
after that, China would be hut a grab
bag for the various European powers
and its dismemberment follow.
The government, il is announced, is
ready to throw all its available re.
sources into the scale and TO spare
neither men nor money in preventing
the alienation of it's territory.
One division of the Army is already
in Mongolia, where it is reported to
have been welcomed by the inhabitants
who are loyal to the Chinese Republic,
although some of their chiefs have been
bought by the Russians.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1912-12-10

In order TO provide war chest which
will enable the Republic of China to
prosecute war with Russia to regain
possession of Mongolia, the Chinese of
the city have been asked to make con
tributions along the same plan as when
they gave money to aid the revolution
which made the Manchu empire a thing
of the past.
Contributions. it is understood, will
be levied on all patriots, according to
their means.
In San Francisco, the Six Companies
and the Chinese Republic Association
have been very active in raising money
for this cause. There, each Chinese is
expected to subscribe not less than ten
dollars. The campaign for funds is be-
ing waged in every Chinese colony in
the United States, and it is said that
more than one million dollars has al
ready been raised to provide the troops
of Yuan Shih-Kai with the ammunition

DENTIST DEFlES SWIFT K
TOOTH WITH GOLD
Venice, CAL, March 15.-Dr.
Wess Rogers, dentist, is the pop
ular hero of Venice today.
This is because DR.. Rogers
capped with gold the tooth of a
patient whom four other dentists
had refused to touch.
1t was not because they fore
saw any particular difficulty in
putting on the gold cap that the
other dentists refused.
1t was on account of the dis
position of the patient, the same
being Cyclone, one of the trained,
mules Of Goldie Swan, of the 101
Ranch company, now in winter
quarters here.
One week ago, Cyclone and
Tornado, another of the mules,
had a Slight difference of opinion.
Cyclone was slightly slow on the
draw, and had the misfortune to
stop one of Tornado's hoofs with
her jaw. What this did to. Cy-
clones jaw was a-plenty.
Goldie Swan, who is very fond
of Cyclone, promptly called. in
DR.. Alexander Wilson to fix up
the jaw. DR.. Wilson answered
the call promptly.
Where is the patient?" he
asked.
Here" said Goldie, leading
out Cyclone, whose eyes, perhaps
on account of the pain in her jaw,
looked particularly vicious.
'sEr-ah-hum = yes ~ quite
so,' said DR.. Wilson, getting be-

lex AND CAPS A MULES
HE HAD A REASON
DR.. Wilson stepped gently out
of the place.
Il have an important engage
ment," he said. "Some other
time, Miss Swan. Some other
time"
Then Dr. William D. Mills was
called in. DR.. Mills inspected
Cyclones rear, or aggressive end,
and hastily picked up his little
black bag.
"My life isn't insured" he
yelled, as he missed all the low
spots toward where he could
catch a car home.
DR.. Frank Allen, the next as
pirant to fame, said he would like
to put in the gold crown, but that
unfortunately, he had a wife and
three children, and he had to
think of them.
DR.. Allison Howard said moth
ing. He just took one look at the
patient" and walked rapidly
away.
And then Miss Swan called for
Wess Rogers. DR.. Rogers is a
tall man, and when he appeared
in, answer to the call, he seemed
to be suffering from melancholia.
When the patient was intro
duced to him, a strange light
came into his eyes, and he took
the job.

Emerson Denies Bad Treatment.

Lake CharIes.-A. l.. Emerson. pres
dent of the Brotherhood Of Timber
Workers, has addressed a card to the
public, denying the sensational reports
hat the prisoners from the GrabOw
trouble are ill.treated or ill-Cared for
in jail. He says, in part:
1T is true that conditions in the jail
we're not, and are not. what they
should be, but it must be remembered
that the new Jail Of this parish is IN.
der construction and part Of the old
Jail has been torn away to make room
for this new building, thus reducing
the capacity and conveniences Of the
old building; also the number now in
Jail is abnormal. Conditions are now
20 per cent better than they were, and
are improving daily. Sheriff Henry A.
Reid has arranged the prisoners In jail

convenience to him and a great favor

Charlton AGAIN Breaks Out.

Crowley.-Charbon again has broken
out in Crowley, having made its first
appearance several weeks ago, when
several head of cattle died. There
are three cases reported to date, in
addition to several COWS that have
died within the past two days of an
unknown malady, now believed to
have been Charlton. Considerable ap.
prehension is being felt over the en-.
tire parish on account of the repeated
appearance Of the disease which re.
suited so disastrously several weeks
ago, Up to within the last week four
persons were reported to have con.
tracted the disease, but fortunately
none OF the cases proved serious.
Every effort is being made to check
the spread Of tn disease, and the laws
regarding the burial of animals dying
with charbon are being enforced
rigidly.

killinn on Crowded Beach.

Galveston, TeX-C. A. Stephens Of
Galveston Sunday afternoon shot and
instantly killed Shelby Johnson of
Houston on the Murdoch bathhouse
promenade, one of the popular pleas
ure pavilons of Galveston. The bath
house was crowded at the time and
not less than 1900 people were in the
water, but luckily no one was struck
by a stray bullet, Five shots were
fired from an ordinary revolver, all Of
which took effect. Death was iustan-
taneous.
1t is stated by eyewitnesses to the
tragedy, Of which there were many,
that Johnson was standing near the
railing smoking a cigar and carrying
an umbrella under his left arm whsz
Stephens, accompanied by his wife,
came up the west steps and, seeing
Johnson, began firing. No word was
spoken by either man, the only ex-
clamation being that by Mrs. Stephens
when she said, my God. What have
you done?"

export rate on cotton shipments which
are sent on domestic bills of lading,
provided the cotton is actually intend.
ed for export The agreement has
been reached between Traffic Man.
ager Leach of the Texas and Pacific
and local commercial bodies 1t is
claimed this concession will save soc
bale on cotton handled in transit
from Texas common point territory
through New Orleans, and will result
in Now Orleans getting much cotton
for export which now goes through
Galveston. Mr.. Leach said the Texas
and Pacific was the only road which
continued the 52Rc per 100 pounds.
1t has disregarded the recent ruling

North and South America. The Unit
ed States will not see without grave
concern" said the senate. any suit

such possession might threaten COM
munications or safety Of the United
States"
SO vital were the issues discussed
in the Lodge resolution. which ser
forth the policy of the United States
as to points surrounded like Magda-
lena bay, that the resolution was de-
bated in secret session.
The resolution arose from report
ed attempt of a Japanese syndicate to
get land about Magdalena bay. In the
form finally adopted by the senate it
declares against the acquisition OF any
threatening location by foreign cor
poration which has such a relation
to another government, not American,
as to give that government practical
power OF control for naval or military
purposes"
Those who opposed the resolution on
its final passage were Senators Cum
Minis, McCumber, Percy and Stone.
Demand was made in the secret SEES
sion for the designation of the coun-
| try toward which the resolution was
directed, Those who supported It de"

nation in particular, but definition OF
this countrys position before EN-

THE declaration rests on much
broader and older ground than the
Monroe doctrine" replied Senator
Lodge. This resolution rests on the
generally accepted principle that every
nation has a right to protect its own
safety; and il 1t feels that the posses
sion of any given harbor or place is
prejudcial to its safety, it is its duty

CHAPTER X-lcontinusdl.

He sank into the seat opposite
Marjorie, who gave him one terrified
glance, and burst into fresh sObs:
Oh-oh-boo-hoo-I' so unhap-
happy"
Perhaps Mrs. Temple was little
miffed at the couple that had led her
astray and opened her own honey
moon with a wanton tib In any case,
the best consolation she could offer
Marjorie was perfunctory pat, and a
cynicism:
There, there, dear. You don't
know what real unhappness is yet,
Wait till you've been married a
while"
And then she noted startling lack
Of completeness in the brides hand.
"Why-my dear!-wheres your
wedding ring?"
With what he considered great
presence of mind, Mallory explained:
TIT slipped off-I-I picked 1t up.
| have 1t here" And he took the
little gold band from his waistcoat
and tried to jam it on Marjorie's right
thumb.
Not on the thumb" Mrs. Temple
cried. Don't you know"
You see. It's my first marriage"
You poor boy-this finger!" And
Mrs. Temple, raising Marjorie's limp
hand, selected the proper digit, and
held it forward, while Mallory pressed
the fatal circlet home
And then Mrs. Temple, having COM
pleted their installation as man and
wife, utterly confounded their con-
fusion by her final effort at comfort:
Well my dears, I'll go back to my
seat, and leave you alone with your
dear husband
my dear WHAT" Marjorie mumbled
namely, and began to sniffle again
Whereupon Mrs. Temple resigned her
to Mallory, and consigned her to fate
with a consoling platitude:
Cheer up, my dear. you'll be all
right in the morning"
Marjorie and Mallory's eyes met in
one wild clash, and then both stared
into the window, and did not notice
that the shades were down.

CHAPTER XII.
A Chance Encounter.


While Mrs. Temple was confiding to
her husband that the agitated couple
in the next seat had just come from
a wedding factory, and had got on
while he was lost in tobacco land, the
people In the seat on the other side
of them were engaged In a little
drama of their own.
Ira Lathrop, known to all who knew
him as a communicating snapping-tur-
tie, was so busily engaged trying to
drag the farthest invading rice grains
out of the back OF his neck, that he
was late in realizing his whereabouts.
When he raised his head, he found
that he had crowded into seat with
an uncomfortable looking woman, who
crowded against the window with old
maidenly timidity.
He felt some apology to be neces-
sary, and he sharled: Disgusting
things, these weddings!" After he
heard this, 1t did not sound entirely
felicitous, so he grudgingly ventured:
Excuse me-y0u married."
She denied the soft Impeachment
so heartily that he softened little:
You're sensible woman. guess
YOU and are the only sensible peo-
pie on this train"
"It-seems-so," she giggled. 1t
was the first time her spinstership
had been taken as material for COM
pliment. Something In the girlish
giggle and the strangely young smile
that swept twenty years from her
face and belied the silver fines in
her hair, seemed to catch the old
bachelors attention. He stared at her
so tiercely that she looked about for
a way to escape. Then curiousiy
anxious, almost hungry, look soft
ened his leonine jowls into a boyish
eagerness, and his growl became
sort of gruff purr:
"Say, you look something like an
old sweetheart-er--ffiend--of mine
Were you ever In Brattleboro, VT"
A flush warmed her cheek. and a
sense OF home warmed her prim
:paech, as she confessed:
