He is the first volunteer from -Hawahi

with George Dwight, Fadden Maxim
ney and Chip Gilman on the same trans
port. From Angel Island, California,
they separated, Dwight and the others
going to their own training camps and
he to Camp American University, Wash
ington, d. C. After a period of in,
tensive training there and in the Vir-
ginia forest camps they were trans
ported over to France sometime in
February. Bush did not know of his

with the sampan anchored out beyond
the reef opposite the sea wall. Then
again the small boat was called into
use and Obata, FujiwaTa and the
Chinaman are shid to have been taken
ashore In Il with the drug. Obata then
returned to his sampan and Fujiwara
and the ChinHmnn started down Ka-
lakaua Avenue towards the Norma Ho-
tel.
So far as can be ascertained, Full
wara insisted when he got to a dark
place between the Seaside Hotel and
Levers Road that the opium was heavy
and that he must stop TO rest.
1t was during this rest that the au-
tomobiIe approached and the robbery
occurred, which the prosecution is GER
tain that Fujiwara anticipated.
The Chinaman is said to have started
to make some resistance but desisted
when he discovered that he was badly
Outnumbered by the Japanese. E
Drug Disappears #
Following. of the various clues and
gathering of the evidence in the SNUG
Cling and conspiracy case has taken
nOarly three weeks time of inspectors
specially detailed by the customs col
leetOr and the United States marshal.
AT one time il was thought that the
seizure of the big quantity of opium
was only a matter Of hours, but the
japanese got word Of the information
which had reached the federal officials
and managed to remove it before it
was captured.
Every effort made since to get hold
Of the opium has resulted in failure,
but there is still hope that It may be
found before IL is marketed. The la
tins Of opium are reported to be worth
$lS5 a tin, according to the present
prices paid for the dope in Honolulu
Because of the evidence given by the
MOiliili japanese where the opium was
cached he is not to be arrested, il is
said, although he and his wife were
in custody for one day aud night.
, Neither is it expected that the China
man who engaged in the smuggling
plot will have to face prosecution, If
he continues to aid the federal OFF,
cials, although no such promise has
been made to him, it is asserted.

SOLDIERS ADOPTED" BY PIG
Odd Mascot That History Records az
Attaching Itself to Company Of
Kentucky Volunteers.

\ There is In the history Of the state
of Kentucky an odd incident in con-
nection with the invasion Of Canada
by the Kentucky troops In 1872. A
company of volunteers, destined for
Selby's army, assembled at Harrods-
burg and formed nucleus around
which tie military recruits of the
country gathered on the march to the
Ohio.
On the outskirts of the town named.
so the story runs, the company saw
two pigs fighting and delayed the
march to watch the combat. When the
march recommended 1t was observed
that the victorious pig was following
the company; and when the men en-
camped at night, the animal lay down
near at hand. OF course the soldiers
fed their plump recruit. The next day
the pig followed them, and this it did
daily on the march to the river.

Army Makes Record Meat Purchase.

Chicago.-The largest single order
for bacon and canned meats In the
history of the world-99, 100000
pounds of bacon and 1874 100000 pounds
Of canned meat-has just been placed
by the Quartermaster's Department,
y. S. A., for the American Army over
seas.
Louis f. Swift, in commenting on
this today, said the order' will take
the bacon from approximately 1900
600 hogs, and II other work were
dropped to produce it, would be equiv
alent to the total bacon production Of
the five largest Chicago packers for
nearly five weeks. However, six months
will elapse before delivery is to be COM
pleted. Mr.. Swift sald
"At the current prices on the day,
last week, when the purchase was
made. the packers would pay the live
stock producers about SS0,OO0OO0 for
the necessary hogs and ove- $500OO,OOO
for about 100000 cattle required. The
cattle will cost us twice Gs much. and
the hogs two and one-half times as
much as In the pre-war period.
The whole order will he made up be-
fore the first of the year, despite the
fact that, even before this purchase,
one-fourth of the packers facilities
have been devoted to filling military
demands. In order to get out the
canned goods the packers will find It
necessary to employ night and day
shifts of Gamers. Notwithstanding
the. fact that the products are being
rushed forward thus hurriedly, not a
single complaint has been received on
meats delivered to the armies abroad.
The five packers are now killing
about 100000 hogs weekly to keep
abreast of martial and domestic needs"
