The Story OF Scotch.

Scotch was a shortnOsed collie,
with slight strain OF shepherd blood
and had a face that was exceptionally
expressive and pleasing. When grown
he was trine larger than the average
dog and was surprisingly agile and
powerful for his size. His coat was a
shaggy. silky black, with feet, tip OF
tail. and breast Of pure white.
Talking to animals appears to make
them gentler and more responsive
Scotch never tired OF listening to me
and | often talked to him as though
he were child. He came to under.

devised methods involves the use un-

as the case may be, OF a network Of
wire stretched tightly by means Of pull

not touching at any point the surface
to be protected against sound
Upon the wire network is plastered
a composition formed OF strong glue,
plaster OF paris and granulated cork,

which and the wall or ceiling is a

described Is said to be good in two re-

her mother has taught her to fiock by

death, though, OF two small dogs that
live across the street and come sniff
Ing around her and her baby. The
boys, too, tease her sometimes. but
they throw stones at the dogs and
chase them away.
Yesterday she was pushing her
buggy along and singing to herself
when the dogs ran out She halted
and watched them approaching. Then
she made up her mind she'd chase
them herself instead Of squealing for
the boys.

and picked up piece Of brick. It

BACHELOR IS EXPOSED
TWO SPECIES, THE TROGLoDYTE

Their Unnatural Civil Condition Re.

The bachelor is man living in n
singular and unnatural state: n social
buccaneer, fawned on and followed
by dowagers, feared and feted by
daughters; whose type In all the ages
has been considered a danger to so

The bachelor Is the pursuit and
prey Of woman, who regards his civil
condition as reproach to her charms
and a reflection on her skill; and her
aim is to snare him and lead him into
captivity to the end that she may
acquire house, home, n husband
and a helot to harry, hector, humble

Benediction, Rev. Rlce.
The above program was rem
dered by the High School pupils
and the graduating class at the
Babtist church last Thursday
evening. The church and pulpit
were very prettily decorated with
the class colors and the arrange
ment and seating of the gradu-
ates and High School pupils made
a much nicer appearance than
last year.
The class this year consisted of
eight girls and three boys, but
owing to the recent death of his
father Frank Wiebelt took no
part in the program and was not
with the class.

TWO SCIENTISTS
ARE ENLISTED

The appointments Of two scientists
as representatives of the Territorial
board of agriculture and forestry,
were confirmed at meeting of that
body this morning.
De e. Silvestri, of Portici, Italy, is
the scientific explorer who is commits

Mediterranean fruitAy and for the cot
ton bollworm, in Africa

gar Planters Association experiment
station force, who is at present spend
ing a vacation in New Zealand, is given
an honorary commission to investi-
gate the insects of that country which
might be beneficial or injurious to hor-
ticulture in Hawaii.
President Giffard of the board re-
ported that the work of combating the
fruithy is being carried on in a sys-
temauc manner, and number of new
inspectors have been commissioned in
the different islands. Mr. Giffard ex-
poets to leave for Hawaii early next
month for the purpose of getting in
touch with the situation in certain dis
tricts, more intimately than he has
been able to do heretofore.
The cultures brought from Maui,
supposed to contain the destructive
insect, have not yet had time to de-
velop into flies, so that it is not GER
tain yet that the Valley Isle has be-
come infested by the pest Mr. Gift
fard, however believes 1t extremely
likely.

We're generally attacked by melon fly
anG as a result many of the Orien-
tails were prevailed upon to gather
and destroy their infested vegetables.
Since the mango season has come in,
however, the inspectors are obliged
TO devote all of their time to Medi-
terranean fruitly work and the veg
ctable gardens are again in bad
shape in so far as melon fly is con
cerned. 1t is a difficult matter TO
make the Asiatic understand why he
should not "plow in his infested veg
etables instead of burning them thor
oughly.
l am pleased to report that so far
the mango has not shown as bad in
festation of the Mediterranean fruithy
as it did last season. Many of the
fruits are damaged by fungus and as
a result of fermentation are attacked
by species of small vinegar files.
These lately only attack fruit in a
rotting or fermenting condition.
Whilst the majority of household
ers show a marked willingness to CO.
operate in the work of "clean cul-
ture," there are very many who ap-
pear irritated at the continual calls
of inspectors. These latter household
ers apparently do not appreciate the
fact that if they kept their premises
free of ripe or infested fruits, there
would be little occasion for continued
inspection. As a whole, Aowever. most

" FLOSSIE "
AT LARGE

1t will be impossible longer tn
chronicle the adventures of "Flossie," J."
in quarantine, the pink-ncsed Jap
anese poodle, the ownership of
which has been enormously attributed
to Mrs. George M. Pullman. "Flossie"
has furnished much food for gossip,
and has been forced TO stand for a
number of stories concerning her ca.
reer since she arrived in the good
ship Wilhelmina. No later than this
morning she was pictured as reclining
on costly Turkish rugs and attended
by faithful handmaiden, while en-
during the three months in quaran-
tine imposed on dogs from the main
land. She has also been pictured as
sailing back and forth between Hilo
and Honolulu to avoid quarantine,
and the name of Mrs. Pullman has
beer wrongfully injected into "Flos-
sizes" log book as her owner, much
to the chagrin of Mrs. Pullman.
1t is only necessary now to state
that, aside from two or three days
when she first arrived, "Flossie" has
not been in quarantine, but has been
in devoted attendance on her mis-
tress, Mrs. Wilbur
"Flossie" trotted up Fort street this
morning as a member of Mrs. Pull
mans party, and it wasn't her first
trip along that thoroughfare. For the
benefit of those who wish to look
upon the "kike" which has been given
so much publicity, it may be stated
that if they see what appears to be
minkskin muff perambulating along
the sidewalk at the end of a strap,
they view "Flossie"

sic" broke quarantine deponent say

DR.. RODGERS, OLD AND HONORED

Dr. Charles T. Rodgers, one Of the

home of Mrs. A. A. Montana, Manoa

and receiving no answer informed the
family of the fact. On his room be.

as revealing no sign of animation, and
DR.. Baldwin being summoned pro-
Iounced life extinct in him.
DR.. Rodgers came to Honolulu in
1875 and almost from the time of his
arrival took an active interest in af-
fairs in the Islands. He was secre-
tary OF the Provisional Government
for one term, served as United States
consul here and was long associated
with educational matters, serving for
a number Of years with the board Of
education. He was at one time con-
nected with the health department
and was a trustee of the Honolulu
library up until his death.
The lamented gentleman was a flu
ent writer and often contributed, IN

that led the prosecuting officers to
withdraw the charge
The other case was that of Daniel

charged with having committed an as
