Through action of the chamber of
commerce yesterday afternoon, the
Maui business interests are to impose
upon themselves once more a volun-
tary tonnage tax on incoming freight
at Kahului of 10 cents per ton for
the purpose of establishing an emer.
gency fund for combating contagious
disease which might occur in the COM
munity. TT was taken after
some little upon recon.
mendation of the physlo. ~s of Maui,
who particularly wisheG9a tu..,. for
fighting future influenza epidemics.
The doctors suggested a fund of not
less than $4,000, but the chamber, as
it adopted the suggestion, provided
that the tax should stop when $500
had been accumulated. 1t was stated
that the 10 cents per ton on incoming
freight will amount to between 500
and $500 per month. The Kahului
Railroad will act as treasurer, and
will arrange for collecting the tax.

Maui May Have To Raise
Money For Mala Wharf

Vice-President H. B. Penhallow, of
the chamber of commerce, reported to
that body yesterday that the plans for
the Mala wharf at Lahaina have been
completed by the superintendent of
public works Office and are now ready
for calling for tenders for the con-
struction of the project as soon as the
money is available.
This money, amounting to 100000.
must come from the sale of territorial
bonds, for which purpose Territorial
Treasurer Metzger is now in the East.
A letter from the Governor expressed
some doubt as to the ability to sell
the bonds at this time, but believed
that Maui business interests would be
willing to take them in order to get
the work done.

Pauwela Boys Must
FaceSeriiousCh Charge
Three Arrested For LOOting Cottages

the boys confessed the depreciation.
Koloa is also charged with having
entered another teachers cottage on
the same school premises a short time
previously. In this affair another Pau
wela youth Atong Akiona, aged IS, Is
implicated.
The story of the wanton mischief
committed by the boys was told IN
last weeks issue of the Maui News.
AS stated, Mr.. Wade is away OH the
mainland, while his wife was at the
time visiting friends on Hawaii She
has since returned but is unable to
tell definitely what is missing for the
reason that the contents of the house
was left in such utter confusion thS
she could not tell what had been
taken from what was simply misplac-
ed. A small sum of money was taken
together with lot of edibles and
canned goods.
The other teachers cottage was
not so badly torn up, the chief depre-
dation in this instance being the break
ing open trunk owned by Miss
Young, one of the teachers who is
now in Honolulu. A lot of her private
letters were taken out and scattered
about pasture nearby, which led to
the discovery Of her loss. Some food
supplies was also taken from this
house also.

affair have been pupils at the school,

Woman Held Up And
Robbed By Convict
Who Had Escaped From
Kahului Prison Caught And Admits
Robbery-Mrs. Ikeda Is The Vic
tim.

Another member of the convict
gang at Kahului, which has been WORK
ing for several weeks in putting the
fair grounds in shape for next falls
big event, took French leave last Sun
day night and was not rounded ur
until Wednesday evening when the
officers who have been on his trail
finally rounded him up in the cane
fields back of Puunene.
In the meantime, however, the des.
perado, who is a Filipino named Fer.
nando Marcelo, added highway rob.
berry to his list of crimes, by holding
dp and robbing Mrs. Ikeda, of Kahu.
lui, of some 500. This robbery was
committed early Wednesday morning
on the Puunene road near the Pun.
nene school.
Mrs. Ikeda, who is the wife of a
store keeper at Kahului, had been TO
Puunene the day before to collect
some overdue accounts for her hus-
Dthu, hIlu udu TGIldlHeu lHBTe W1LD
friends overnight. She started back
for Kahului shortly after o'clock the
next morning, and it was while thus
on the way home that the robbery
took place.
Taking up the trail from where the
robbery was committed, the police
were able to track the fugitive
through the cane fields and finally to
corner him when he surrendered and
confessed.
Marcelo, who had never been on
Maui, was handicapped by his ignora-
ance of the island, and was thus more
easily captured The report Of his
escape, following so closely upon that
of the other convicts who escaped
about 2 weeks ago and committed vari-
GUS robberies before they were finally
up, created quite stir where
ever the occurrence became known.

PA. MacCaughey Resigns
As Maui HighSchool Head

Paul A. MacCaughey, principal of
the Maui high school last term, who
went to the coast on business immedi-
ately at the close of the school in
June, will not return to the Islands.
His wife will leave to join him in
Columbus, o., as soon as she can
secure steamer accommodations. 1t is
understood that Mr.. MacCaughey has
accepted an executive position with
Davis & Co., prominent architecture
al firm of Ohio.
Mr., MacCaughey had been reappoint
ed for the coming school year and had
made many plans for the coming
years work. 1t is presumed that the
inducements of his new position must
have. been very flattering to thus
cause him to change his mind.
The news that Mr.. MacCaughey is
not to return will be received with
much regret by Maui people generally
and by those having children in the
high school in particular. During his
incumbency as principal he did very
great deal to make the institution
popular with both pupils and parents,
and to give it a place of importance it
had never before held in the commun-
ity.
No advices have been received to
indicate who the new principal will
be.

violent exception to the attitude OF

the company to have its income in

the whole objection was on the
method proposed to secure this in

Garden Cities for England.

London is trying TO work out its
housing crisis by building little gar
den cities about 20 miles outside its
limits. These experiments in whole
sale home construction are being car
ried on by the enterprise Of private
capital backed up with the generous
government subsidy that is being given
to all bone construction projects.
The profits of the promoting COM
pany will be limited to seven per cent
of the investment, the proceeds over
and above this amount going back into
town improvements.
The ideal house so much talked Of
in England, that resulted from the
Daily Matt competition, will be given
a practical tryout in this new city.
The name of the place when completed
will be Welwyn Garden City.

sweet clover a much more promising
undertaking than the breeding Of red
clover. These facts have been brought
out by recent experiments conducted
by the United States department Of
agriculture in cooperation with Iowa
State college. The federal depart
ment's Investigators plan to follow up
these discoveries with the selection
and breeding of white sweet clover
for increased forage and seed produc-
ton.
1t was also found that sweet clover
needs great deal of moisture to ma
ture the seed properly. This is zone
of the reasons why the second crop of
sweet clover sometimes has a better
seed yield than the first. There being
a smaller amount of growth on the
second crop, the plants do not draw
on the water supply so strongly and
there is more water left for the matur-
ing of the seed.

HOME -
TOWN -
HELPSR]
FOR "THE CITY BEAUTIFUL"
Writer Has Some Things to Say
Which Should Appeal to All Lovers
Of Their Town.

In an interesting article In the
Ladies' Home Journal recently Jane
Leslie Kift made the following peril
nent remarks:
1.-The number of hopelessly shabby
little towns is appalling. Almost every
town, be 1t large or small, has a wo-
mans club, and the women of these
organizations set the standards, and
the rest of the community make a
more or less successful effort to live
up to them. SO il is to the club wom-
en- of America that make the appeal
that they exert every effort to further
The City Beautiful movement.
1.-THE word city is used in its broad
est sense and embraces all towns, ir-
respective of their acres or the number
Of their inhabitants. Each community
has its own problems that must be
worked out along individual lines, and
this thought has been kept in mind
when the plan presented on this page
was made. While it is definite, it is
sufficiently elastic to admit of the nee
essary changes to make ii adaptable
to any community.
"All clubs, such as new century and
civic clubs, have a garden committee.
This committee should be given the
work of managing the campaign for
The City Beautiful and the re-
mainder of the club should lend it their
whole-hearted support. The size of
portance, but committee of twelve
makes good working number. Too
many members cause confusion, and
too few means that some will be over
worked"

DRIED CORN FOR WINTER USE
Sweet Corn Cheap and Easy to Pre-.
pare for the Family During Cold
Weather-Store in Dry Place.

Dried corn is as old as the early
American Indians. Sweet corn is one
of the easiest of the vegetables to dry
for winter use. If there is enough on
the market, the corn can be bought
very cheaply, or if you have a sur
plus in your garden, it will be well
worth your while to dry that surplus.
AS soon as the corn is pulled, husk the
ears and boil for five minutes to set
the milk. Cut the corn off of the cob,
and place on the dryer in the sun
and air for day or until the corn
has been dried. Place trays in the
oven and finish drying Store in a
dry, cool place until it is desired dur
ing the winter.
