B0REs FOR WATER.
OPENS GOLD NINE

YREKA, (Siskiyou Co. Cali, Aug. 8.
a promising ledge of gold as
we'll as splendid supply of water is
the good fortune If Louis Scheld, a
prominent landowner near this city.
Scheld when he commenced boring for
artesian water expected to find both
gold and water and the result proves
that his theories were correst. He, has
not found artesian water but expects
to have enough to irrigate several hun
dred acres of land. =
Scheld for years has believed that
artesian water could be found in Sis
kiyou county and made offers to any
one that would bore for it. No one
accepting his offers he decided to bore
for himself. From the first he encoun-
tered difficulties in the way of inabil-
ity to obtain competent help and in
the necessary delays of sending to
San Francisco for parts of machinery
for repairs.
Thursday at depth of $50 feet he
struck a gold bearing ledge with Tor
ings showing free gold. Yesterday
Scheld reached the depth of 400 feet
and was on the ledge as the borings
continued to show gold.
The water in the we'll is within
twenty, feet of the surface ana n
Scheld does not find artesian water he
has flow sufficient to irrigate several
hundred acres. He will Zig deeper
in the hope of finding artesian water.
The ore drillings are being assayed
and the result is awaited with much
Interest by mining men who clam
that the hills near Yreka carried gold
from the surface to depth Of 200 feet
but the finding OF free gold at depth
of 400 feet demonstrates to the miner
and investor that treasures Of gold
deep in ground are in the hills Of Sis
kiyou.

That the Panama Canal is almost
ready to yield a harvest OF both COM
meree and labor to Hawaii. and that
Honolulu must be up and doing in or
der to fiji itself to receive the benefits
which will come with the opening of
the big ditch. was the theme of a
Rear Admiral Albert Ross, U. s. ~,
retired. at luncheon at the CONNER
cial Club today.
There are 5000 European laborers
who can not be surpassed anywhere
in the world, who are fond of tropical
climates, and who could be brought
over to Hawaii on the completion OF
the canal" said the speaker 1T
would be to the benefit of Hawaii TO
look into this phase of canal compile
ton"
Admiral Ross is an enthusiast on
the canal, and believes firmly that no
mistakes have been made either in the
selection of the men who are rapidly
bringing what he terms the greatest
engineering feat the world has ever
known to successful completion, or in
the methods which these men have
adopted. He described clearly and in
terestingly the history of the canal
from its earliest inception to the pres
ent time, and told Of the engineering
features with which he became ia.
milfar during long stay on the Canal
Zone recently.
And now we come to the part
which Hawaii will play in the opening
of the canal" said Admiral Ross, al.
ter carrying an imaginary ship through
the locks and lakes from the Atlantic
to the Pacific.

5000 Laborers on Big Ditch Can Be Secured for islands

Business Admiral Declares

Everything in the way OF shipping
from Alaska to the Antipodes will go
through Honolulu. But what have you
in the shape of a harbor? Have you
any docks that can accommodate q
thousand-foot ship? II not, what will
become Of you?
The demand from the outside Is
that you should have good health
here. In order to have good health
You must have good water, good
sewage, and a good sanitary harbor,
You must eradicate the mosquito and
the fly. If there is any question OF
quarantine, ships will give Honolulu
q wide berth.
ct Is up to you to see that these
ships do not go by. As to your har-
Dor, I'm afraid it will have to be gen.
orally admitted that it is inadequate,
and it will not be long before you
are forced to take in Kalihi, and make
a clear passage way for ships through
both channels. You should have a
coal pile with half million tons of
coal always on hand, which can be
procured as cheaply or even cheaper
than at other ports. That will bring
the shipping. ,..-z.6. "a 49,. =. s

to do, expect to see q new Homo
lulu, with double the population and
with fine villas dotted over the hills.
And look after the tourist crop. That
is one Of the most valuable crops that
q community can have. - ~. {.
Depend upon 1t the canal win be
opened a year from next September,
and from then on 1t will be the most
important factor in Honolulu's COM

G.r::SHEBA INDICTED
Indicted by Grand Jury-Pub-
fisher is Fined $50 When
Plea Is Entered

On the charge Of using the United
States mails to conduct lottery, So
metaro Sheba, editor of the Hawaii
Shinpo, was indicted by the federal
grand jury this morning.
At = o'clock this afternoon Sheba
with his attorney appeared in court
and waving a hearing entered a plea
of guilty as charged. He declared
that he had erred through ignorance
of the law and would be more careful
in the future A fine of $50 and costs
was thereon imposed which the Jap
anese publisher paid before leaving
the courtroom.
After the jury held a brief session
at 10 o'clock Judge Clemens called
the district court to order and the
jury's true bill was handed in and
placed on secret file. Immediately aft
erward court took recess until 2
o'clock this afternoon, when the editor
was summoned into court and the in
dictment read to him.
The editor is indicted on three
counts, all relating to the publication
of subscription contest which the
Hawaii Shinpo conducted last August.
His alleged error and illegal act,
which Sheba protests was made
through his ignorance Of the law and
not wilfully, was in advertising a con-
test in which winners were to be de-
cided by a drawing of numbers from
hat or other receptacle, and in bold
ly announcing that it was to be a lot
terry.
This is held to be in violation of the
federal statute, which has been in eff
feet many years. The contest Sheba
proposed differed from the ordinary
newspaper contest, which is held con-
tinually throughout the United States,
in that he would have chosen the
winners by a process that found win
ners~ purely by chance, while the usu-
al contest is decided on merit, in
which the winners are those who, by
their own work and that of their
friends, are able to gather the largest
number of subscriptions for the news
paper.
Both kinds of contests are intended
to, increase the circulation of the
newspaper, but the one depends on
luck, or chance, and as such would
into a gambling game, pro-
hibitedss by law.
Behind Sheba's indictment is said to
be- al stCaty sof feud between the edi-
tor and another Japanese. I.
1" is said that the latter in
retaliation, sent word direct to St;ithe
Attorney General at Washington, mott
tying him, of the subscription contest
and demanding an investigation. This
is, thought to be one of the reasons
for the present visit or Special Agent
Peyton Gordon to Honolulu at the
present time. -. -.
Whether the latter has been ordered
to take any other Investigation Here
is Unknown, but it is thought that ibis
duties have been concluded here. The
federal grand jury adjourned shortly
after the court had taken its recess,
and will not meet again until next
Monday, Gordon expects to leave on
the Siberia tomorrow morning for ia
pan, where he will take up the work
Of gathering evidence at Toxic, Maya
saki, Kobe and other cities in the big
customs case that has arisen through
the customs port of ST. Joseph, Mo.

awaiting her, She will never have any difficulty
In obtaining welpaid position in domestic serv-
ice, for the instructors at our Indian schools have
more applications than they can accept from re-
sponsible families eager TO secure competent In
dian girls as household helpers. Some OF the ap-
plicants even suggest the possibility OF adopting
a young Indian girl If one be found to fulfil ex.
peCtations.
Or, If the Indian girl OF the present day. upon
completing her education, elect to try tor a live
lhood In some one OF the artistic pursuits she
seems to have advantages her brother fully
as marked as under the circumstances above men
toned. The Indian brave, In his native state,
does not show aptitude tor any torn OF artistic
handicratt unless 1t be the tashOnlng Of bows
and arrows. But the Indian women have tradi-
tional skill in bead work. in feather work and in
leather work and the Indian women OF the south
west nave Tor countless generations eXceed In
pottery manufacture, In rug weaving and in basket
manufacture. When an Indian girl is enabled to
use such talents in accordance with the knowl-
edge OF modern art ideals which school educa-
ton gives her. 1t goes without saying that she
has ready to hand very agreeable and very re-
munerative means of livelihood.
School teaching is another vocation which opens
to the educated Indian girls future that is vir.
tually closed TO the redskins of the sterner sex
There are in the United States Il large and con-
stantly increasing number of Indian schools
that Is, primary grade schools for the education OF
the younger Indian children on the reservations
and 1t is coming about that almost all of the
teachers in these schools are Indian young women
who have qualified for the work at Carlisle or
other schools and by courses In normal schools
Indeed the success OF great numbers OF these
young Indian women school teachers In earning
their livelihood by brain work while SO many OF
the Indian young men Of the period must depend
upon manual labor for their earnings emphasizes
as does nothing else the change that has come
about in the status OF Indian women. 1t is, un-
der such circumstances, complete reversal OF
conditions over those that obtained IL the long
ago when the Indian women were compelled to
do all OF the hard labor. whereas the men were
responsible only for the lighter tasks,-or may
hap. devoted themselves exclusively to warfare
and the chase.
There Is little doubt that one explanation OF
the success which 20 many twentieth century In
