done to retard, much less pre-

Pasteur, however, began with a
close study Of fermenting yeast,
and was finally able to pick out
the particular element which
caused the trouble. He then
passed on to the study Of milk
and was the first to locate the
little particles which caused it TO
ferment. and also proved that,
when these microscopic specks
had been removed and no more
were allowed to sneak back,
milk would keep fresh almost in

Pasteur rose almost over night
to position Of the greatest honor
and esteem in scientific circles,
and his prestige but increased as
time went on. This sudden leap
to distinction was caused by his
complete solution Of a chemical
anomaly which had been puzzling
tho most eminent scientists in
Europe.
PATH TO GLORY.
The solution was Of little imms-
diate importance to the world at

the most distinguished chemists
in France simply expressed the

kissed Pasteur on both cheeks
after the experiment had been
successfully demonstrated before
him.

really rests.

well as a strong strain Of prac-

II nothing is done until the signs
become unmistakable, it is too
late; the treatment cannot begin
to have effect in time.
Hence every community should
see that all facilities for this
treatment are kept constantly in
readiness. and every ~se who
even suspects that he has been
bitten by a rabid animal should
have the right to immediate and
competent attention.
Pasteur's first patient. q little
Alsatian shepherd boy. was sue
cessfully treated in 1885; within
q few years Pasteur Institutes
were opened in all parts of the
world to carry out his treatment.
and in 1855 the Pasteur Institute
of Paris was created to carry on
his work in this and in other
fields.
Though the great scientist suf-
fered from a stroke In later life,
and hence could not carry on
further experiments personally,
he always remained the guiding
genius of the institution which
bears his name.

Misapprehension Felt
In United States Is
Lloyd Georges Claim
ASSOCIATED PRESS)

LONDON, Aug. st is understood
that premier Lloyd George, after read
ing the comment of the American
press on the British war debt, has
sent note to the allies saying that
he concluded there had been a wide
spread misunderstanding in the Unit
ed States that Britain has indicated a
desire for America to cancel the Brit
ish debt which is generally wrong.
The premier is expected to straighten
out the affair at the house of commons
this afternoon.
Sir Robert Horne, chancellor of the
eXchequer told the commons Il wish
to make clear beyond all question this
misapprehension. We recognize in
full our obligation to pay our debts to
the United States and we do not mean
in any shape or form to evade that
obligation"
A report from Washington says it
has been officially stated that the
British note will not change the policy
of the United States in regard to
foreign loans.
EXpremier Asquith expressed mis-
givings of the wisdom of Balfour's
note advocating the renting Of
French and other allied nations debts
to England as politics and good bust
ness. He expressed the opinion that
the American debt should be con
sidered as distinct from European
matters and DEPRECATED the suggestions
that the United States is under any
obligation, either moral or sentimental
to waive the Allied debts.
Lloyd George, in reply, character
lied Asquith's remarks as "unfor
tunate" and advised that Germany be
not pressed too hard as it may force
a communist and reactionary up
heaYal.

See Maui First Is
T.. Advice Sylvia Offers

See Maui instead of going away
from the Island for vacation trip is
the advice of Joe Sylvia of the Olinda
homesteads who is ready to furnish
horses and guides for sight seeing
trips.
Sylvia has not been paying much at
tention to the conducting of parties
to and through the Crater or over the
Ditch Trail for the past few months
for he has had a sub-contract under
Contractor Freitas in the Kuiaha road
work. That work was finished on
Saturday of last week and Sylvia is
now ready to resume the conducting
of or arranging for the conduct of
outing parties.
During the time of his contract
work, he says, he made no effort to
secure other business but as result
of the publicity he had secured earlier
he received numbers of calls and those
he took care of as best he could. Now
his horses and guides are all available
and he announces the fact in display
advertising wherein he gives rates for
the various trips.

Kuiaha Road Work
Finished For Time
First Unit Is Completed;
County Engineer Hopes To
Have Work Of Extending
Further Started Next Month

Work on the first unit of the Kuia-
ha-hakipi Gulch road out in the pine
apple district was completed last Sat
urday. The county engineer hopes to
have work started on the second unit
next month and will probably bring
the matter OF advertising for bids for
the work before the board of super
Vlsors at their Friday session of the
August meeting next Friday.
The work completed Saturday was
the Freitas contract, that of the Hal
ku Fruit Company having been finish
ed some little time ago. The two con-
tracts were for a bridge, a long fill
and the macadam surfacing of a
stretch OF about a mile and the costs
were about $4,000. II was the most
expensive part of the work that will
be done under the present Territorial
appropriation, the money coming from
the placing of Territorial bonds
through the Haiku Fruit Company.
Both the bridge and the fill work was
expensive but the latter saves about
two thirds OF a mile of building, elm
mating that much of the old road.
County Engineer Low was to write
to the Territorial Auditor today to
ascertain officially the amount of ter
ritorial funds available for a continu-
ance of the work. He believes there
is between $4,000 and $4,000 re-
naming in the fund. That amount,
he says will be sufficient to carry the
paving about a mile and a half fur
ther on to the end of the present road.
Further work of extending the road
to Kakipi Gulch, across and beyond
will have to wait until after the next
session of the legislature next Febru-
arv, when it is hoped to have another
appropriation passed. The additional
work then to be done will be rather
costly including construction of new
road and some bridges. This section
of road, while running toward Kailua,
is not part of what is usually called
the Belt Road project which is the
road to be built from Kailua toward
Hama, though the KuiahaKaki
gulch road will connect up ultimately
and forms a part of the belt system
the county has long been planning.

New Angle Raised
On Prohibition
Question Is Whether a County
Officer Can Enter and Raid
Dwelling Houses Either
With or Without Warrant

Another angle of the Prohibition
Law made its appearance in Magis-
trate MOssman's court in Wailuku
TINS morning in the case of the Terri.
tory against Leon Foon, arrested in
having in possession for sale okolehao.
The arrest had been made with Hua-
KIM Enos and the point at issue is
whether a county officer can enter a
dwelling house without a search war
rant in enforcement of the provisions
of the federal law.
In his decision last Tuesday in the
case of Leong Mung Magistrate Moss
man touched on the point but said it
was not at issue in that point because
Prohibition Enforcement Officer
Crabbe, a federal officer, was in
charge of the party when the search
was made.
The Federal Law provides that no
federal officer shall enter a dwelling
house used exclusively for dwelling
purposes in search of evidence either
with or without search warrant. I'm
der the territorial law county officers
are given a wider leeway. The point
at issue is whether Officer Enos in
making the search and arrest in en-
become de facto federal officer while
de jure county officer.
Magistrate Mossman regards the
point as highly important and was in
clined to think that there should be
a supreme court decision rendered on
the subject. Should he decide in fav
or of the defendant, that the search
was illegal the prosecution cannot ap-
peal but, on the other hand, should
he decide for the prosecution the de-
fendant, represented by Eugene Muir
ply, would have the right of appeal
and adjudication secured on the point
from the higher court.
Enos identified the stuff he seized
in Icons house and testified to see
ing the defendant pour out a drink
and give it to man whom the officer
followed in after the thirsty one had
told him he was going in to get a
drink. The house was a two room
affair, one occupied as a sleeping
room and the front one, Enos said,
chiefly used to store empty bottles.
