mates that there should be a confer

SOMME VETERAN
ISLOCAL VISITOR

Lieut.. Lester Elliott of the British
Army evidently bears a charmed life.
He is through passenger on an
Oceanic liner at this port today and is
going to Duquoin, Illinois, to visit rel
atives.
Because of his bravery in the CALI
poll campaign, Lieut.. Elliott, who was
then a private, was given his commits
sion on his return to Australia from
the hospital.
Il was wounded three times in as
many minutes at the first landing at
Gallipoli by machine gun fire." said
the young officer this morning. After
recovered l returned to Australia
on duty and when reached there was
given my commission"
OF the battalion of 24OO men in
which he left Australia for Gallipoli
in 1915, only $50 are in active service
today, Lieutenant Elliott says.
lin April, 1916, Lieutenant Elliott
left Australia with a new battalion,
and after preliminary training at the
great Salisbury Plain camp in Eng
land, was sent 10 france.
He participated in the battle of the
Somme While in service somewhere
in France" one night he led a platoon
of rs men on a midnight scouting re-
connaisance. OF that number, only
two returned alive, the platoon hav-
ing run into a German trap.
While in the trenches at Muokey
Farm the young lieutenant came
down with trench foot and was sent
to the hospital, where he was recon-
mended for discharge as physically
unfit for further service He was in
the trenches il, France about s
months, and today wears several
medals and ribbons awarded him for
bravery

Trio Have Narrow
Escape When Train /
Snashes Into Auto

An extra freight train Of the
Oahu railway ran into Stephen
Gumfer's auto at the Mokauea
road about 8 o'clock last night
and literally smashed the machine
to pieces, and hurled the occu-
pants in every direction. The re-
markable feature Is that not a
single person was injured. Gum
fer is night Waterman at the Ha-
waiian hotel.
According to a report made Of
the accident by Policeman Ed
Ross, after the locomotive hit the
auto it dragged the machine about
80 feet. Mr.. and Mrs. Stephen
Gumfer and Mrs. Trip were in
the auto, but none was even so
much as scratched. The engine
is also intact.
The train was proceeding to the
Thomas pineapple cannery, and it
is understood Brakeman James
Andrews saw the auto. approach
ing the crossing and signalled En-
gineer Alex Hewett to stop, but
the latter thought the auto had
stopped and continued. The auto
started up again and got directly
in the engines path.

Dangers of Watered Coffee

Watered stock, watered milk, and watered coffee-the. United States Gov ernment is carrying on crusad, to eliminate all three.
 Everyone knows about watered stock. Everyone has seen blue milk" the combined efforts of COW and the old pump. But not everyone is on his guard against "watered coffee"
 That the United States Government realizes the danger of watered coffee Is shown by the specifications for the United States Army supplies. These specifications say plainly:
 Coffee: roasts must be dry
 roastS, no water being permitted
 before, during or after the process
 of roasting"
 Water in coffee is piece of dShon- esty practiced by interruptions coffee coasters. They turn the hose on the coffee while it Is being roasted, so that 1t won't lose weight, as coffee will, when properly roasted. In roast ing. coffee should lose about 16Pc of its weight. If it Is watered 1t loses but 4es. The difference, of course, Is water. for which you pay coffee value.
 This Is adulteration and nothing more. The waterIosged coffee k rank and unhealthy. Of course, 1t is not honest to charge for coffee, and sell coffee beans soaked in water.
 lot of watered coffee is being sold no doubt right in this town. It Is more often met with in the lower priced grades of bulk coffee.
 As coffee is such an important bev- craze pure food authorities are ad- vising housewives to use the greatest care in selecting their coffee. The pure food experts say that the hest way to avoid vatered coffee is to buy some reliable paekaged brand, roasted by reputable coffee roaster as Arbuckle Brothers of New York.-Adv.

In response to pleas made by former Governor George w. Donaghey, Mr1. Minnie l. Rutherford-Ful and oth- CTS. the governor pardoned Luvida Sims, a negress, sentenced from Faulkner county in 1913 to 35 years in the penitentiary for complicity in an assault on a t5-year-old white girl. Seven others were convicted as prin- cipals and accessories, but were par doned by former governors. The pros ecuting witness, it is alleged, has ad- mitted that she gave false testimony. The pardon also was recommended by Judge Eugene Lankford. who tried the case
