way or power company or companies
operating on the island of Oahu as

as amended
Another important change is that
regarding the stock sinking fund.
Governor Frear's plan was to require
the stock sinking fund TO be deposited
with a fiduciary company or trustees
in order properly to safeguard. 1t
was seen that such an arrangement
might prove unwieldy, and hence an
agreement has now been arrived at
whereby the company is required to
set aside stock sinking fund, pro-
tecting the stockholders, and that all
operations connected with the fund
shall be under the supervision and
with the assent of the public service
commission. The provisions for this
are: II.
a. Beginning in the year 1925 or
such earlier year as may be agreed
upon by said corporation and said
commission, there shall be set aside
as of and as soon as may be after
the last day of each year out of said
income, il sufficient, or, If not suffi-
cient, to the extent that there is avail
able income, after meeting the re-
quirements of subdivisions /, 2, and
5 of this section, to the credit of a
stock sinking fund, such a sum of
money that the aggregate of the sums
so set aside previously and the sums
which would then and thereafter be
SO set aside if there should be suffi-
Gent income and if the same amount
should be so set aside each year
thereafter, together with estimated in
iterest, whether earned or not, on
each such sum, compounded yearly
at the rate of five per cent (5eSl per
annum from the time when it was or
should be SO set aside, would amount,

CURRENCY BILL DEFENDED
 BY HITCHCOCK

Washington, Nov. 25-The struggle in the open Senate over the admins tration's second great legislative meas ure, the currency bill, which was open ed yesterday with a short statement by Senator Owen, the administration, was continued today when Senator Hitchcock, also Democrat, took up the defense of the substitute bill agreed upon by the opposition faction in the Senate banking committee.
 The forces led by Senator Hitch cock include all of the Republican members of the Senate banking com mittee. Many Democrats are favora,- ble to those features of the Hitch cock bill which include public own ership of the stock of the regional bank and a small number of those institutions

STRANGE WOMAN STARTLES CITY
 CLERKS OFFICE
Uses Phone To Tell Of Pres
 ence of Many SIeuths.

Four women detectives and four teen men detectives are watching one saloon for selling on Sundays, after hours and for calling one particular man to trade at the bar, according to a woman who broke into the city clerks office this morning. The wom- an said she was Mrs. George Smith and that she lived at 823 Park ave- nue.
 She asked permission of City Clerk Robinson to use the telephone in his office. MT. Robinson likes to accom- nodate everyone and as yet he is not acquainted with everyone who works in the city hall. He told the woman she might use the telephone and for with she proceeded to call up some other woman named Mrs. O'Neil. Then she began to tell the person she got on the wire what would happen if she did not stop selling to George Smith and stop selling Sundays.
 The women who used the telephone claimed that eighteen detectives were watching that place in question, that the particular hnan whom she was guarding had been called from his home by telephone to visit the saloon in question and that if the practice did not stop, arrests and prosecutions would follow. Then she hung up the telephone and quit the city clerks office, before the latter could get her real name OF address
 There is no 823 Park avenue nor Is theer any such person as Mrs. Geo. Smith listed in the city directory.
 There are several saloons and liquor licenses conducted under the name o1 O'NeiI in Bridgeport but as far as could be ascertained by The Farmer reporter the woman did not call any of the O'Nei1s w1ho are known as legitimate saloon keepers.
 The woman was of medium statue rather good looking and wore a blue suit with hat to match People who have business at the city hall and who saw her, decided she was one of the many. cranxs who drift in every day of the week to make the work of the city officials more difficult

The Red Lion club was composed of great Engiishmen, and Huxley was one of the members The club used to meet during the session of the British association. To a certain meeting at Ipswich, England. which Huxley de scribed in his Letters" some foreign CTS were invited, the Prince of Canano, Bonaparte's nephew, among them, and greatly astonished they were at the exceedingly human behavior of the learned professors. The Red Lion men had a custom of roaring instead of cheering and of wagging one coattatl- the hon's tail-when applauding- The prince was much impressed by these proceedings, and when he stood up to respond to the toast of his health tn- stead of making a speech he gave three mighty roars and three wags.

They were touring through New Eng land, and flat tire brought them to a stop one the edge of a farm district which was not included in the itin- erary. While the men watched the repair work and helped the women went to tne tiny store near by, which was fine specimen of the real coun-a try type. "You have lots of signs up, :, said one of the women to the store keeper, 'sbut none to show the name of the proprietor-' We had one" said the man. but took it down to get even s1 don't understand said the woman ''Wen, you sse.'' the man re piled with a twinkle.

First Aeerees In Lendon.

It was warm reception that was given to the first French players to appear in London in 1929. Their visit was an utter failure. It was notable, however. for the important innovation which was the chief cause of their EnpOpuIarity.
 The luckIeas troupe introduced ac- nesses for the first time on the Eng Nsh stage thereby giving just offence to all vertuous and vell-disposed per sons in this town," wrote Thomas Brande, rehecttng the spirit of the piaygoer of that time, who was used to seeing boys take the female char acters.
 These French women. or monsters rather,'' were missed, booted and pip pin pelted from the stage" The first move against this prejudice was not long delayed, however. Five years later another French company came to London with women players, under royal patronage, and were received with good approbat1on' at the Cock pit in WhitehalL-L.Ondon Graphic.

ProTtabte Roses.

4Boses, though generally admired as the most beautiful flower, are not un1- versaity recognized as the profitable article of commerce that they really are Trade roses are grown in vaTf- ous parts of .Europe, but chiefly at Grasse, in France. and Kasanlik, in Bulgaria, where great stretches of rose gardens provide the chief supply of roses for the markets of the world The highly cultivated roses are useless for commercial purposes, and both at Grasse and Kasanlfk it Is the cabbage rose that Is chiefly grow-.+the rose of a hundred petRIs.r as they cali it in southern France The Grasse roses are used chiefly for pomades. soaps. rose water, and such commodities, and the demand made by the manufactur- era of such on the rose growers of Grasse can be partly gauged from the fact that more than 100000 pounds Of roses are annually gathered In the district Essence, or, as it ds called altar of roses, is rarely made in France, on account of the expense of production, but nearly all the Bull gartan roses are used for this purpose.

 Milton, William Morris and Charles Keane the actor, all were slaves to aout, and Milton was further handi- capped by being blind The poet Keats died of consumption when still quite young. Elizabeth Barrett Brown ing was an invalid for the greater part of her life.
 Insanity claimed Dean Swift, while Rousseau and Cowper were insane during periods of their Ewes.
