NEED FOR sY'
BUILDING IN HIL0,
DECLARES PAUL SUPER

A great many young men who come
to Honolulu from Hilo complain OF
the lack of decent place in the lat
ter city where they may spend their
leisure hours" said Paul Super, gen
eral secretary of the local Y. NJ. c. A.,
when interviewed this morning con
corning the likelihood of an associa-
ton at the Crescent City. There is
no question that there is a great need
in Hilo for Y. M. G. A. and no one
realizes this as much as do the Hilo
people themselves.
"The success Of the association in
small towns constantly is being dem
onstrated For instance, the small
town of Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, with
O population Of 5000. has a $4,000 as
ISOLATION building, and is carrying on
a splendid work Mcpherson, Kan
sas, a town of 5000 population. has a
$4,000 building. Central City, Ne.
hraska, with only 200 population, has
a new building which cost $4,000.
Many other instances could be cited
in which the association has been de-
clared a success in cities not nearly
as large as Hilo There are enough
of the better class of young men in
the Crescent City to make the work
there a good return for the invest
ment. have talked over the matter
with Lorrin A. Thurston and H.. B.
Elliot, as we'll as other Hilo men,
and. while the present ruTnor of a
building to be furnished by c. H Ath-
erton has no foundation in ract, there
is no doubt in my mind but that Hilo
one day will have Y. M. C. A.

The automobile expert of one of the
English magazines has been calcu-
lating the speeds at which various
parts of the engines of cars move. OF
the 15-horse power motor of car
that won a recent race, he says it
made $500 revolutions a minute on the
level and went much faster when de-
scending hills. This means that the
pistons made $500 dead stops in every
minute to reverse their motion. 1t
also means that 1900 times a minute
the induction, compression, explosion
and exhaust cycles take place, and the
magnetic has to deliver 400 sparks a
minute

SUGAR IN Flu ISLANDS.

Cane planters from Tavua to Mad
report that they have had splendid
harvest, and that the present season
will be one OF the best on record. The
percentage of sugar in the cane has
been high, and the tonnage yield pei
acre has exceeded the estimate in
many instances. The Lautoka mill
has SO much cane still to put through
the mill that the Ba establishment is
being asked to treat all the Lautoka
cane on the north side of the mill.

IMPORTANT 7
MEETING

There was an important meeting
held at the office Of j. M. Kelly last
evening when large number Of prom
inent business men and land owners Of
this county met to consider the mat
ter Of immigration for this and other
counties during the coming year.
There was also present Emigration
Agent Harm Of the Great Northern
railroad. Matters Of interest along the
line Of bringing settlers in were dis
cussed. Different plans were suggest
ed and among them the one which
seemed to appeal as the most feas-
able was that Of forming an ncorpor-
alton Of some kind for the purpose of
placing men in the field to secure more
settlers for this section.
The Great Northern will put one or
two men in the field and will furnish
stereopticon views and it is believed
that with the aid that can be given
from his county we can secure large
number Of home seekers this year. The
move is a good one and is deserving
Of the hearty support of every person
in Ramsey county who would like to
gee us have a good farmer on every
quarter or half section.

IS GOING At TER
STATE CAPITAL

New Rockford, N. D., Dec. 1s-Be-
cause of the poor condition of the
state capitol building at Bismarck,
which is considered a fire trap and
disgrace to the state this city is COM
ing forward as a candidate for the
state capital and has already launched
campaign to that end. This place
claims to be the geographical cente,
of the state.
New Rockford has the new mai
line of the Great Northern from Fargo
to Minot. It has branch of the N.
P. connecting with the main line of
the Northern Pacific at Jamestown
and with the old main line of the G.
N. at Leeds. Residents of the north
ern and northeastern counties can cas-
lily reach Leeds over the Great North
ern and come here via the N. P.
New Rockford people say Bismarck
has the state penitentiary, the govern
ment Indian school and the army post.
and is seeking the state fair. New
Rockford has no state institution. It
would like the capital.

German Cruisers Bombard Four Towns British C~~
Battle III North Sea Believed to Have Preceded Attack

London, Dec. 15-The long expected
German attack on England was made
today, and for the first time in the
history of the United Kingdom hostile
warships bombarded English towns.
Scarborough, Hartlepool, Redcar, and
Whitby, on the shore of the North Sea
were shelled by German warships. The
extent of the damage inflicted was not
revealed in the early reports, but re-
fugees from the towns attacked tell
of the destruction of several buildings
some of which were set on fire by the
shells from the German battleships.
Number of Dead is Small.
Reports say eighteen persons were
killed and number injured in the
bombardment of Hartlepool, and at
least fifty shells are said to have been
thrown into Scarborough, where one
death is reported. Two German cruis-
ers are said to have bombarded Whit
by, which also reports one death. and
Redcar reports say three cruisers were
seen off the coast at that point. The
official press bureau however, announc
es only one small German vessel OPEN
ed fire on Scarborough and Whitby,
and adds that the German boats attack
| ing Hartlepool were driven off by guns
of the West Hartlepool fortress.
1t is reported in Hull that word had
been received that an attack by the
Germans was contemplated, and that
consequently the authorities were in
readiness to meet it. The coast de-
fenses had been prepared thoroughly,
and all the units of infantry and ar
tillery were at their stations and in
the trenches.
Up to p. m. no reliable estimate
of the casualties were available.
Advices reaching London indicate
that Germany sent only few swift
cruisers for the raid on the coast Of
England, largely for its mora leffect,
and has not attempted an action with
it's main fleet or an invasion Of Eng
land. The news of the naval raid was
announced by the British admiralty
in London shortly before 1880 a. m.
and it threw the English metropolis in
to the greatest state Of excitement
that has prevailed since the outbreak
of the war. Insurance rates, so far as
the North sea is concerned, practically
were suspended by Lloyds, and great
crowds gathered in the street to read
the announcement of the attacks.

OF
DR.. M0[LLER
IS CUT down
MINOT MANS TERM REDUCED
TO INDETERM1NATE ONE
FROM TEN YEARS

The news comes from Bismarck
that the sentence of Dr.. Thor Moeller
of Minot, mas been cut down to an in
determinate term Of from six to ten
years. This will make him eligible to
parole sooner than under his former
sentence. DR.. Moeller was convicted
of murder in the second degree in 1908
and sentenced in Ward county to serve
ten years in prison.
During his stay in prison DR.. Noel
Ter is said to have done much good
work among the prisoners and be-
cause of this, it is said, the cutting
down of his sentence resulted.
The last action of the pardon board
revives interest in the Moeller case,
which was one of the most sensational
in the history Of Minot.
1t was charged that DR.. Moelle1
caused the death of..a young woman
through a criminal operation.

M|N0T PEOPLE
SEE BIC Guns

Minot, N. D., Dec. 16-A westbound
freight train of IS cars carrying six
huge 18 inch guns and their equip
ment and ammunition passing through
the city shortly after 2 o'clock this at
ternoon on the 500 railroad made the
people of Minot understand more fully
that the war is closer to home than
is generally realized.
The cars were carrying the great
guns from Bethlehem, Pa, to Vancouv
er, B. c., for the coast defense of the
Canadian west coast, being the third
trainload Of the same sort to pass
through the Magic City in the past
two weeks. Many persons saw the big
guns during their short stay in the
city from the viaduct and other points.
The fact that it took 35 cars to pull
only six guns and their equipment
across the country caused consider
able surprise. The equipment of the
gun is very extensive, however
turrets, gun carriages, bases and sew
eral articles adding to the load.

BEAUTIFUL
DECORATIONS

The Red Cross Drug Store in this
city certainly presents beautiful ap-
pearance just at the present time, ow-
ing particularly to the splendid decora
tions which have been put in for the
holidays. The work was mostly done
by Millard, the son of C. w. Greene
proprietor Of this well known store.
The Red Cross drug store is the old
est drug store in Devils Lake, and
the proprietor, "Billy' Greene is one
of the old timers, who came to this
city when only a boy back in the 8Os.
It has gained an honest reputation as
being one of the best known business
places in the city and nothing is ever
left undone to keep it in the front
rank as an up-to-date store. Each
year it is beautifully decorated for the
holiday season. but we believe that the
decorations this year surpass all 9th.
ers in elegance.

WARNING FOR
WHEAT RA|SERS

The department of agriculture re-
ports that the worlds wheat area for
the next season will be the greatest
in the worlds history. There is a
worldwide tendency to assume that
the war will cause wheat shortage,
hence a tendency to sow more more
abundanty than ever. Ordinary half
the worlds crop Of wheat IS produced
in Europe. Even there all nations are
making extraordinary efforts to main
tain the normal wheat acreage. Italy,
for example, reports million acres
added to her usual wheat area. Russia
of course, can utilize not only her own
home fields in Europe but an unlimited
area in Siberia. .
This being the case, we reiterate
our advice to our readers not to !
carried away with the wheat craze
here in the northwest. Raise wheat
in the regular rotation of your diversi-
fed crops. Increase acreage if you can
without sacrificing thoroughness. But
by all means keep up full diversified
tion Of crops, or the Northwest will
risk most serious loss In case tr
weather does not give ideal conditions
for a wheat crop.
Don't put all your farm at the
hazard Of one crop. The Northwest
suffered enough years ago from
that kind of farming.

While it has been said that the sea-

lines of trade, it cannot be said that
the Ramsey Drug Co. has curtailed it's
buying on that account. Their Christ

for several years past. And the buyer
has had an eye for the useful as well
as the ornamental as will be readily
seen when you inspect the display
which now fairly crowds the store to
capacity. It is really a pleasure to go
into their store and seek suggestions
for Xmas gifts. They are there in
abundance, such as everything imag-
Unable in the new French Ivory goods,
manicure sets Of every description,
pennants, pillows, leather goods, In
dian moccasins, perfumery, books,
Christmas cards, fancy box candies,

Victor monographs and perhaps the
largest assortment Of records in the

everything for the Christmas shopper
even the boxes to send your gifts In,
