CLASH ENDS
FAST RIDE

Miss Irma WOdehouse, daughter of
Jas H. WodehOuse, and Il niece of Ell.
WodenouSe, is an inmate Of Queens
hospital suffering from a compound
fracture of leg, caused through col
lision between a motor cycle upon
which she was riding in company with
Arthur Parish and an automobile
driven by Carl Schaefer.
According to a report Of the acct
dent, which took place yesterday
afternoon near the intersection of Nc
Gully and Beretania streets, and re-
ceived by the police, the Schaefer
car is said to have been proceeding
at a rate between thirty-five and forty
miles ain hour. At least this is the
admission claimed to have been made
by SChaefer when he first appeared at
the police station.
Miss WOdehouse was riding tandem
behind Parish's motor cycle. Parish
was proceeding .on the right side of
the road at moderate clip, though
he was unable to turn out in time to
avoid the auto coming in the opposite
direction. Both riders on the motor
cycle were hurled to the ground with
great force. Some parts of the ma
chine were found later eighteen feet
from the scene of the compact.
The Schaefer machine was finally
stopped and the driver assisted in the
removal OF Miss Wodehouse to the
residence of Dr. Sinclaire, who super
intended the removal of the young
woman to the hospital.
Parish, who is a son Of l.. A. Parish,
at the police station, claims that he
was going up the right side of Nc
Gully street and turning into Bere-
tania when he noted the auto APP
preaching at fast rate of speed Par
ish suffered some minor bruises only.
On the other hand SChaefer claimed
later that he was going at about ten
miles an hour when he hit the tandem
ard that he did not see the pair on
the motor cycle until he was right
upon them.
The young lady is reported to have
spent a restful night and no serious
permanent results are expected to fol
low the injury.

END OF THE WORLD is SEEN
Science Teaches Us That Our Faith In
the Safety of the Solar System
Is Misplaced.

What will be the end OF the world?
This is question which was formerly
asked of soothsayers and prophets and
often answered by them with definite
statements and dates which were, to
those who believed them, to the last
degree disquieting. Such prophets and
prophecies have all been proved erro-
neous and the Millerites and their kin
have all been laughed out of serious
consideration. Science has taught US
better, says the Technical World Ma
gazine. and yet science which seeks
always new facts and revised reason
Ing is now teaching US that our faith
in the safety OF the solar system is
misplaced.
Instead of the eternally changelees
procession OF the planets about the
sun and OF our solar system about
some other, greater sun, astronomers
find grave evidence of what seems dis
order in what we thought was per
petual perfection, disorder which
may. indeed probably will, sometime
wreck our own planet. 1t is possible
-astronomically considered it is prob
able-that, unseen within the remote
confines of space the vast mass of a
dead world is hurtling toward our sun
with inconceiyable velocity. In time
the two will come together and the
immeasurable heat produced will make
gas OF granite and floating clouds OF
nebulae of us all: for thus worlds die
and thus they are Immediately in
process of being born again. for out
OF the condensation of this nebula will

FAIL TO APPROVE OF II.
MONTESSORt SYSTEM

Miss Frances Lawrence, who for
many years has been in charge Of the
kindergarten work in Honolulu, is con-
stantly in receipt of letters from local
people who are anxious to know what
the American educators think of the
Montesorri system Of education.
From investigations of this system
which have been made recently by
Miss Lawrence she has come to the
conclusion that the American educa-
tors place Madame Montesorri some
thirty years behind the best of the
present theories. A letter from a
friend who has been travelling in
Rome was recently received by Miss
Lawrence, in which several of the i'm
portant facts concerning the system
are, set forth. This friend was Qsent
to Rome by the Teachers College to
study the system, and she says in the
letter: IF all kindergartens and pri-
mary schools were run after the most
approved American methods we
would not need this system at all.
But as they are not We can benefit
in the following ways from it's study.
The letter then went on to say that
this benefit could be derived from the
use of smaller groups, doing more in
dividual work, having the teachers in
terfere less with the pupils, have
shorter periods and less conversation.

F 0 UR HUNDRED
ACRES FOR new
HOMESTEADS

Four hundred acres of land, con-
sidered excellent soil and with proper
climate and rainfall for the success
full cultivation of pincapples, are to
be opened shortly for settlement as
homesteads, in lots of about twenty
acres each, on the Island of Kauai
The tract is located at Kalaheo, near
the McBryde plantation and in the vi
cinity of a number of other home
steads of like character which are al
ready occupied. The present home
steads are of smaller area however,
containing only five to ten acres each.
Land Commissioner Joshua Tucker,
who returned yesterday from Kauai.
has put several surveyors to work
laying out the proposed homestead
lots. He says the land is some of
the best pineapple soil in the islands.
The territory is preparing to ad-
vertise the sale of a lease on 400
acres of similar land at Kappa, Kauai.
A previous attempt to sell this lease
failed, though the land is regarded as
some of the best on the island for
pineapples. One of the conditions en-
bodied in the lease is that the lessee
shall build a pineapple cannery in
sufficient capacity to handle the crops
of the homesteaders and other small
growers in the neighborhood. This
tract, like the Kalaheo homestead
acreage, was formerly under lease to
the McBryde plantation. part of it
used for cane growing and part for
grazing, st. :,
