IN TAXES Until
SATURDAY, night

When the Honolulu tax office closed
Saturday night 1854, 1854 had been col
lected from the property holders in
this municipal district for the second
half of the present calendar year. This
amount, taking into consideration all
the>other figures involved, is as much
as expected, though it leaves about
10000 to be made up by the tax
Offices Of the outside districts to place
the total collection for Oahu On par
with that of last May.
The total tax collected on Oahu
IL November of last; year was approx
mately 100000, which included the
receipts from the special income tax.
The collection last May, not including
that for the special income tax, was
$751;, 382.2S', and the collection this
month will not include the special in
come tax because practically the en-
tire payment of that item for this year
was made in May
This special income, or conservation
tax, as it is sometimes known, was re-
duced by the last legislature from 2
to one per cent, but by the time the
statute had gone into effect the PEG.
pie affected by it's provisions had
made their semi,annual payments un-
der the old rate. AS a result such
persons do not have to meet the Sec
ond semi-annual payment. because
The May collection of one per cent is
sufficient for the entire year under
the revised statute
Very little of the November collec-
tons come from poll tax, most of it
having been paid in May

DisraeIi's NuptiaI Joke.

There was little joke between
them Disraeli and his wifei which
heard from the late dean of Salisbury.
You know | married you for your
money" Disraeli would say to her
"Oh, yes. but if you were to marry me
again you would marry me for love-
was the regular reply. "Oh. yes." her
husband would exclaim, and the little
nuptial comedy ended.
But what Disraeli said to Bernal Gs-
borne once about his marriage is much
better worth the telling. 1t was at Il
dinner party after dinner when the
men were alone. What did you mar
ry her for:" Osborne asked in his char
acteriStic way. Disraeli twiddled his
wineglass in the pause that followed
this point blank inquiry. Then he
lifted his head slowly and looked the
other very expressively in the face

CONTRACT LET ON |
20 new COTTAGES.
Increasing Shop and Factory
Buildings Call for Addition
al Quarters for Men.

Beginning the start of movement
for the building of something like 200
new houses for shop and factory work
ers, the East Moline Land company
has just let the contract for 20 houses
to Contractor c. W. Hink, who will
commence work Immediately on the
buildings which will be located in the
New Shops addition to East Moline.
The almost phenomenal growth of
the town of recent years has been
brought to the notice of visitors very
strongly of late, and this move will
tend TO strengthen the friendly feeling
in the minds of capitalists who are
now contemplating investments in the
place. With this addition TO those con-
tracts which he now has on hand, Hink
is engaged in the construction of over
100000 worth of new buildings.

Accident.

Michael Putka, employed as heater
in the tempering room of Deere &

o'clock this morning.
During an interval between heats,
the man washed out a handkerchief
and climbed to the top of a pile of
iron to hang the cloth in front of an
electric fan. AS he was descending,
he slipped and fell against the switch
which controls the fan. The shock
rendered the man unconscious and he
was taken to the first aid room for
treatment. The company's physician
ordered him taken to the city hospital
There the pulmotor was used for two

prevailed The stock now in the ware
houses will not last over a month,

ment was placed before the public yes

$25 FINE IMPOSED
FOR KILLING HORSE

NJ. Bernstein, the junk dealer ar
rested for practically beating to death
a horse night before last, was fined
$25 this morning by Magistrate Gustaf-
son, after a change of venue had been
taken in the case from Justice Wheel
ock's court. Attorney w. S. McClurg,
first retained by Bernstein, refused
to go on with the case because he be-
Iieved the fellow ought to be pun
ished. An appeal was taken. NJ. Isaacs,
an employe of Bernstein, was fined
s5.05, the small sum being imposed
because he had nothing to do with
the beating It is said that the team

coming raise. Retailers have recently
received notices from the wholesalers

pay more after Sept. l. so there is no.

EMOTIONS OF ANGER.
Give Them a Little Play Rather Than
Bottle Them Up Tightly,

There are a few universal habits in
the human race which have strange
primitive origins. and there are some
which are universal because they have
q physiological stimulus. and one of
these latter is in the habit that little
child often has of stamping its feet
when angry. Exactly the same thing
occurs when a man, while he is angry,
brings d0wn his fist on the table. In
both cases it is due to lack of nervous
control
The nervous system is unit. and
most of the emotions of anger come
from a sudden thwartinS of n calcuat-
ed nervous plan. Thus If we are
about to sit down on n chair and a
misChievous urchin yanks the chair
away just as we have let the muscles
of the thighs relax the anger excited
is ont of all proportion TO the actual
bruises that have resulted. If child
wants a pot of jam and is denied he is
Immediately angry unless he has been
taught to control himself. The desire
for the jam. for example. has set in
motion n nerve plan. and when this Is
suddenly stopped there is q fow Of
nervous energy which has TO speDd
itself in some way. In the case of the
child. he usually works this off by
stamping his feef and crying In the
case of the man. he usually goes
through exactly the same processes by
humping the table and swearing. In
the case Of a hystericaI woman. she
beats upon the floor with her heels and
screams. 1t is all the same thing
Strange as 1t may seem, moreover.
the outflow OF emotion Is far better
for an angry person than it Is TO bottle
It mp. Emotion Is going 10 express
itself in action somewhere. and If the
muscles are kept still the brain cells
will be exhausted instead. Emotional
force has got TO 90 somewhere. 1t can't
just stop and disappear. Too great a
suppression of the emotions leads to a
gradual atrophy of them. and when
the emotions begin to die out the per-
son himself or herself Is OF compara-
lively little use to the world. II is for
this reason that nothing should ever
be done to "break" a child's temper.
but only to guide it into right chan
nels. You can teach a child not 10
