DISCUSSES OUR
COAST DEFENSES
Says Mobile Forces Would Be
Depended Upon to Large
Extent in Case of War
rBy Latest MALL

WASHINGTON. - Secretary Garri-
son, in prepared statement, discusses
the preparedness of seaboard cities to
defend themselves againt land attack
Mr.. GarriOn emphasized at the outset
of his statement that he had issued it
because of "a recently published ar
ticle respecting the land side defenses
of our coast"
The statement in part follows:
My attention has been directed to
a recent article respecting the land
side defense of our coast defenses
Would Find Difficulty
1t is perfectly true that many of
our seaboard defenses would find Sc
rious difficulty in defending them
selves by their own garrisons against
a land attack by a numerous force,
and it is also true that they have been
constructed in many instances with
out any reference to IN attack coming
from the land side, but as was natur-
al, in view of their purpose, almost
wholly with view of giving protec-
ton to the cities and haTbors behind
them by an attack of hostile feet.
This being their principal function.
pretty much everything else was sub
ordinated TO this end, and in many
eases Notifications were so placed in
the effort to secure the best field of
fire over the sea front and channels as
tC render their defense from land at
tack extremely difficult 1t can be
said of many of them-in fact most of
them Except those which are on ISL

rest upon the bodies of mobile troops

DIR. S|LVESIRI
|. WELL PLEASED,
PARASITES

Entomologists of this city are con-
graduating themselves today. and in
particular are they congratulating
Dr.. Fillippi Silvestri.
The high spirits of the entomolo-
gists are due to the discovery that
the insects which DIR. Silvestri
brought here about two weeks ago
from Africa have laid their ting eggs,
which means within a short time
tire larva will be born.
This discovery marks the crossing
OF another bridge, as it was feared
that the parasites might, due to the
change of climate, die off and put
an end to the experimental work of
DR.. Silvestri The latter is highly
gratffied with the success and pro-
gress of his work and the promise
that it will destroy the fruit fly.
Though the doctor will leave the
middle of next month for Italy. to re-
sumo his chronological instructions
at his college. he expects to see the
young larva feeding on the Mediter-
ranean fly before then. He stated in
an interview yesterday that it takes
less than a month for the larva to
come to life.
It will be fed on the eggs of fruit
flies, and it Is In this way it it hoped
to destroy the pest which has done SO
much harm to the fruit and produce
of the islands.
The parasites, brought from the
west coast of Africa. are still kept at
the territorial board of agriculture
and forestry. They are on diet of
honey.
'They are in excellent condition,
said DIR. Silvestri. 81 could ask for
no better fortune. They are laying
their eggs now and within a short
time we will see the larva. The
period of incubation may be longer
here than / found it to be in Africa.
in one species it took from eight to
fourteen days, and in another quite a
bit longer. / cannot say how long 1t
viii take here, but doubt If the diff
ference will be more than slight
Il will leave here on the Ventura
to go back to Italy. I cannot say
am not anxious to get back, yet the
work here has been so interesting,
the city SO beautiful. the people so
generous to me that / regret to leave
in spite of my anxiety to get back
to my home.
1T has been a hard trip for me.
In Africa I found it hot. Life was
not easy or pleasant there. My hunt
was not certain of success. But now
that it is over, and all indications
are that the parasites brought here
are the very much needed ones, i am
very happy. I may come back here
some day Who can tell? They say
one always returns to Honolulu.

HAD GOOD JOB FOR
NINETEEN YEARS,
WITHOUT SALARY
[By Latest MALL

NEW YORK. Sarah Carr, sixty
five years old, got an attachment
against the property of Mrs. White
who advertised the contents of her
clearinghouse for sale.
Sarah Carr said she went to work
for Mrs. White in 1884 at $14 month
In 1904, when 81 800 in wages was due
her, she says, Mrs. White agreed to
provide home for her until she died
if she remained in Mrs. Whites en-
ploy.
The other day. she said, Mrs White
told her she washed her hands OF
her. and she must vacate her room
and get out because the boarding
house had been sold.
The plaintiff asks $4,000 damages
because she was turned out, which
with the 1880 of unpaid wages,
makes $3.50 for which the attachment
was issued by Justice Lehman on
the ground that Mrs. White is secret
ing her property.

ESTATE GROWS 500
PER CENT WHILE
HEIRS ARE FIGHTING
[By Latest MALL

NEW YORK. - Ever since Ralph
Marsh, wealthy farmer of Bergen
county, N. j., died in 1881, leaving an
estate of 100000, his. three children
have been fighting over the settlement
of the estate. In that time the realty
has increased in value to more than
$5,000,000 and still remains undistrib-
uted.
John E. Marsh, executor, refused to
sell. His brother, William Y. Marsh,
and sister. Mrs. Catherine Bib, in
sisted that he should sell, but he won
out.
When John E. Marsh applied to
Vice-chancellor Lewis in Jersey City
the other day for $4,000 as executors
fees the other heirs objected. The
court postponed decision, as the ex-
ecutor already had received $142, 200
as commissions on realty sales.

Political capital is now being made
cut or the passage in California OF
the anti-alien land law. After a con-
ference with Count Katsura, who IS
recuperating from a recent illness.
the executive committee of Prince
Katsura's new party declared the
present cabinet could not be relied up
on TO settle the California alien land
ownership question and that the party
Lad decided TO adopt its own propa-
ganda with regard to the dispute.
Other opposition parties also are
using the California problem TO dis
credit the Yamamoto ministry, be-
cause of the exterior economies and
administrative reforms that the VA
mamoto cabinet has brought about.
However, it is strong with the public.

PILOT ROCK RAISES
GOOD BLUE STEM

That Pilot Rock is destined to be-
come the center of the blue stem sec.
tion of the county is the declaration
of John p. McManus, editor of the
Pilot Rock Record and real estate
dealer OF that town who Is in the city
today. He states that this year. prac-
tically two-thirds of the wheat grown
around Pilot Rock was of the blue
stem variety and that the yields were
so good that the farmers derived good
profits from their land.
Heretofore" said Mr.. McManus,
"it has been the general impression
that the Pilot Rock land was adapted
only to the raising of barley but now
1t has been proven that blue-stem
wheat thrives in that community We
all know that blue stem cannot be
grown upon the reservation lands to
compare with club varieties and we
all know also that club wheat is not
success about Pilot Rock. But we
are just learning that blue stem is
naturally adapted to the soil around
the Rock and l look to see the farm
ers in the future sow this variety of
grain almost exclusively"

PRACTICALLY ALL OTHER BUSI
NESS AT COUNTY CLERKS
OFFICE SUSPENDED.

Practically all other business at the
county clerks office has been suspend
ed in order to register voters So
constant has been the stream of men
and women to the office that the Of
flee force has not had a moment of
time for other work since yesterday
morning and it begins TO look as if
they will have to sit up nights to
complete the work
The new law requires that four
blanks be made out. one for the vot-
er, one for the clerks office. one for
the precinct and one for the city re-
corder. SO busy are the office work
ers that they only have time to make
out two of the blanks at the time of
registration and will have the Other
two copies to make when the rush
of voters stops.
Yesterday there was total of SO
voters registered and today there will
be more than twice that number. The
