This deal, by which one large and
profitable Kauai sugar plantation
passes into the hands Of another, not
oniy Is the biggest transaction Of
years In plantation ownership, but Is
of territory-wide importance because
II heraIds the settlement Of the entire
water rights, railroad and homestead
controversy which was an island sen
Sation few months ago.
Col. z. S. Spaiding, head Of the
Spaidino interests and q prominent
figure Or Kauai for more than gen.
Grafton, arrived In Honolulu on the
steamer Maui on Saturday. His son,
Rufus p. SpaldIng, came from San
Francisco on the Sierra yesterday to
join HE father In discussion of terms
with the Lihue directors.
Late yesterday II was learned thar
agreement on the deal had been
reached, but there remained q number
Of important details to be completed.
Inquiry at the office Of the Llhue
agency, n. Haekfeld q Co., brought
the response that the deal had not yet
been completed, but the Indications
were that during the day most Of the
remaining points would be settled.
Rufus p. Spalding said over the
telephone this morning that he could
not At that time discuss the transae-
tion, intfmating that several points
remained not agreed upon. How
ever. Lihue stock kholders familiar,
with the developments is authority
for the statement that the deal is so
far closed that II may be regarded as
a moral certainty.
Meeting IN Governor's Office
Lihue directors and officers and
Col. Spalding, as well as territorial
officials, met in the governors office
this morning to discuss government
water rates and distribution. 1t was
denied that this meeting had any
thing to do with the Lihue-Makee
deal, but 1t is admitted that there is
a close relation between the two mat
tiers, as the agreement with the gov.
ernment will depend somewhat upon
the relations between the two planta-
tions. If the sale is effected, the
question of water rights is expected
TO be settled without difficulty.
Llhue to Increase Capital.
Late Monday a petition for amend
ment TO the articles of association of
the Lihue Plantation Company was
filed in the office of Territorial Treas
urer c. ]. Mccarthy The petition
asks that the company be allowed to
increase its capital stock from $2,100, |
900 to $3,000.000, and to raise the lin.

SCHOLARSHIP WINS SUCCESS
Statistics Show That College Men
Who Graduate With High Honors
Gain Distinction Later.

The list Of the first ten scholars Of
each of the classes that were GRADUATE
ed from Harvard college In the sixth
decade of the last century, as present
ed by William Rosco Thayer, is a list
Of men eminent In every walk Of life.
Indeed, it is likely that the first quar-
ter in scholarship Of any school or col
lege class will give to the world as
many distinguished men as the other
three-quarters.
What can we say in this connection
Of the 400 living graduates Of the ten
Wesleyan university classes from 1896
to 1892 Just this, says Harper's Mag
azlne: OF the men In that group who
were graduated with highest honors
90 per cent are now regarded as distin
guished either by who's Who II
America" or by the judgment Of thell
classmates; Of those who were elected
to Phi Beta Kappa-the scholarship
honor soclety-30 per cent; Of those
who Won no superior honors In schol
arshlp, only IL per cent. OF the meI
now living who were graduated from
Wesleyan university between 1860 ant
1889, 16 per cent are listed in "Who''
Who" Of those who received high hon
ors in scholarship during this period

new AND DEADLY WEAPON
United States the Possessor of Aerial
Torpedo Which Will Aid Terrors
70 War.

There have been several experiments
on the Hampstead Plains q. ~ ayla-
ton fields which promise to revolu-
tlonize the present method Of drop
ping aerial bombs. The experiments
have been conducted with the utmost
secrecy. It was learned thai a new
bomb probably will be put on the mar
ket soon. The experiments have been
successful and this government Will
have an aerial torpedo which will be
fully rs important to warfare as the
wireless torpedo, recently accepted by
the government.
The torpedo Is about six feet long
and may be used either from an aero
plane or sent up and adjusted to fall
at a certain place. 1t will have a
propeller and wings which can be set.
1t has a radius of 100 yards Of explo-
sive force, and at that distance could
kill every man within that circle.
Officers of the First Aerial company
admitted that the torpedo was invent
ed by +. u. Barlow, who is connected
with the Frankfort arsenal at Phila-
delphia.
From what could be learned, me
bomb will be so constructed that the
person who operates 1t may stay In
one camp, and If an enemy camp were
two miles away, the p~rojectile could
be set to go through the air as far as
that, when the engine would stop and
the bomb fall to the ground, exploding
just before 1t reached the earth.
Its inventor asserts its great value
is in the fact that 1t explodes Just
before it reaches the ground, and th'
greater portion OF its power does no
sink In and be taken up by the earth
but spreads over a large territory.
The torpedo also may be carried OF
the bottom Of an aeroplane, and tn,
aviator can release it with a leve
when he is over an enemy camp. tn,
torpedo wiz then explode when nea
the ground.

Fall is a busy season for ell Of US,

Most of the birds, having raised their
families while with US, have gone for
their vacations In sunny cllmes. The
squirrels are hustllng from morning till
night getting In their winter stores Of
nuts. The beavers are fixing up their
funny matched houses, and piling In
green twigs for winter use. The wood.
chucks are %burrowing away out In the
fields laying out subways and under
ground rooms, in which they are to
spend the winter, snoozlng and dream

are c%autiOning their children to watch
out. It's safety first" with them right
now, for hunters with guns and dogs
are on the way. Fall certainly means
something to animal folk.
