AN OLD kAMAAINA GONE

w. ]. Sheldon is dead. He was
well known on Kauai where, at Wal
mea. he was for many years deputy
sheriff. Following that he was a
member Of the House of Representa-
tives for the four sessions from 1907
to 1913. In the latter he was chair.
man Of the Judiciary Committee. Since
that time he has been living in Homo.
lulu, engaged in the practice of law.
He was fluent and efficient speak.
er in both English and Hawaiian. He
was a leader among the Hawaiians in
all public matters, religious, philan,
thropic and social, and was very much
liked. He was a commanding figure
physically and his genial benevolent
presence will be missed by all who
knew him.

on giving concert and program,

NEAR EAST RELIEF


Kauai is responding most magnifi
Gently to the appeal made in behalf
of the starving multitude in the Nea,
East. The Lihue district is the only
one that has made returns, as yet
but its report is most heartening, with
total to date of $4.324.56. The
plantation store at Koloa has been
designated as a center to receive con
tributions in that locality with Mrs. W.
H. Francis as chairman. Waimea
and other places on the island are
well organized and it is hoped that
early returns may be had. A letter
from the Near East Relief Committee,
of Honolulu, states that the campaign
will officially close March the End, but
that the books will be kept open until
the $4,000 quota has been reached. If
any individual on the Island cannot
find committee in his community,
then send your check direct to the
Island treasurer, Mr.. Frank Crawford,
Lihue.

SENATOR RICE
WANTS TO KNOW

With commendable alertness and in
telligence Senator c.. A. Rice is
scrutinizing the big expenditures
proposed for harbor improvements in
Honolulu and Elsewhere.
Speaking of Senate Bill No. 10 he
asks:-"This Bill is making for ST.
265,000. What are we going to get
back from it? What did we get back
last year on all the other millions the
Territory has spent on wharves and
harbors? What is our total invest
ment in wharves and piers anyway"
1t transpired that $4,000 was re-
ceived last year for wharfage. Sena-
tor Rice then went on to say,"The
Territory received on wharfage only
$4,000. On the investment which
this bill asks for we shall have to find
$130,000 every year for interest and
sinking funds alone, to say nothing of
running expense, repairs and deprecia-
ton" IA
Gentlemen. this Territory can go
bust spending money on piers and
wharves that earn no revenue"
He and Senator Harold Rice of
Maui advocate an amendment to the
Organic Act which will permit the
imposition Of tolls on all freight pass.
ing across Territorial wharves.
We beg to assure our Senior Sena.
tor of our hearty approval and support
In the attitude he has taken.
Further consideration may develop
fresh facts or a different point of
view, but it is surely high time that
we slow up, take soundings and find
out just where we are. -.-.-

WA|LUA R. R. BRIDGE
NEAR COMPLETION

| The new railway bridge at Wailua
is rapidly approaching completion. The
last pier is we'll along, and the first
span of the superstructure is finished
The construction of the piers, WITH
the underground and underwater
work, is the most difficult and the
most protracted. The superstructure
work will go rapidly.
1t has been difficult Job involving
unforeseen drawbacks and delays which
have been very discouraging. While
the bottom, as whole is sandy and
clayey, large boulders are scattered
through it, which makes it next to
impossible to drive ordinary piles, or
sheet piling for the caissons; yet
-nese are absolutely necessary to the
safety of the bridge ~
The cement piers go down IS or 20
feet and rest on piles carefully distri-
buted to carry the weight. There
are 81 of these piles TO reach pier, and
they run down So, 60, 70 feet,-one is
70 feet. They are driven by steam
hammer until they won't 60 any fur
ther, either because they have struck
rock. or the friction resistance holds
them like a wise. VIZ
When the piles are driven home,
a heavy bottom of cement is placed
under water by means of running it
down a big pipe carefully. This
makes water-tight bottom for the
underwater we'll. The water is then
pumped out, and the cement put in
in the ordinary way.
Judging from the single arch which
is finished it is going to be very
artistic and pleasing bridge. with
most dignified and restful lines.
Mr.. A. A. Hartmann, Engineer in
charge representing the Hawaiian
Dredging Co., deserves great deal
OF credit for carrying the work through
to so successful an issue, in spite of
the very formidable difficulties.

STIR AND ACTIVITY AT NIUMALu

Work moves along steadily on the
Nawiliwili harbor in spite of delays
in securing the necessary equipment
and supplies from Town. The air
drills are working industriously on
foundations for the big landing crane |;
the road is we'll along, and makes
quite showing on the side hill; the
headquarters house ON the shelf
above the landing is ready for occupa-
tion as soon as the water is laid on; (;
te big tank which will command and
supply the whole region is in process
of construction.
There are some 65 men on the job,
many of them skilled, and there is a
hustle of activity and noise quite un-
wonted for Niumalu.

Says His Prescription
Has Powerful Influence
Over Rheumatism

Mr. James II. a. en- suffered FOR years
with rheumatism. Many times this ter
rible disease left him helpless and I'M
able to work.
He finally decided, after years of
ceaseless study, that no one can be fres
from rheumatism until the accumulated
impurities, commonly called uric acid
deposits. We're dissolved in the joints
end muscles and expelled from the
ody.
With this idea in mind, he consulted
physicians, Made experiments and final
" compounded a prescription that
quickly ana completely banished every
sign and symptom of rheumatism from
his system.
He freely gave his discovery to 9TH
ars who took it, With what might be
called marvellous success. After years
of urging he decided to let sufferers
everywher know about his discovery
through the newspapers. All druggists
nave been appointed agents for Allen
rub in this vicinity with the understand
ing that he will freely return the pur-
chase price on the first two bottles to
all who state they received no benefit.

HENDERSON co, TO
HOLD POULTRY SALE
(By Associated Press)

Henderson, KY, June i6-Hen-
derson county next November
will hold an event, unique in Ken,
lucky, when it stages its first an
nual poultry sale The sale vii
be handled primarily by a local
bank which financed the work
this summer and spring Of distrib-
uting blooded eggs throughout
the county.
The poultry work in the coun-
ty is being conducted as an adj
junct Of the National Better Sires
Better Stock movement.
During last winter, according
to Donald w. Martin, county
agent, the president Of the Hen
derson County Poultry Associa-
ton the Poultry Extension spe-
cialist from the State University
and Mr.. Martin, called on the
cashier of the Henderson Nation
al Bank and asked to finance the
purchase Of probably 500 worth
of purebred White Wyandotte
eggs for local poultry raisers.
The bank agreed to cooperate
and an agreement was signed
whereby the specialists were to
give the farmers the benefit of
their knowledge to make the ven
ture a success. The Henderson
County Farm Bureau agreed to
put out the eggs through its Of
fee.
Letters were sent to about D.
600 farmers and on February Is.
the eggs, at the rate of Is per
setting, were being sent out. At
first an effort was made to meet
the demand for eggs from county
breeders but soon the demand
was too great and eggs were pur-
chased from every available
source within the state. The 500
limit soon was passed and when
1879 settings were distributed, all
the eggs that could be obtained.
the bank had invested 81, go. AD-
plicatiOns for probably $500 set
tings were made, according to
Mr.. Martin, but despite limit OF
ten settings to each person, many
were disappointed. Eggs were
purchased at SO hundred and the
bank paid 81 a setting and the
profit used to pay telephone and
telegraph charges. Eggs wereI
guaranteed to be so per cent fer
tile and records were kept Of
where all eggs originated.
During November each personI
who received the eggs paid for
by the bank will return to it oneI
pullet from each setting received.
Immediately after the chickens
are all in a sale will be advertised
ten selected puilets andI
one selected Cockerel for SIS.
1--WE believe this will be sue
cessful project" said Mr.. Martin
in writing of the plan, "and she
banker does not seem to be a bit
worried. He offers to give thel
Farm Bureau any profit that may
result and, in fact, offers to tryl
it again if he breaks even. How
ever, we feel that it might bel
more convenient next season if
we have the breeders themselves
carry out this return pullet planI
right at the farms with their
or others who wish toI
take advantage Of the no cash
outlay proposition"
