For some time reports have come n to the sheriff that the fruit fly was in different places on Maui, but on investigation, no sign of the pest could be found Last Saturday morning, however, James Cornwell handed a bag of Chinese oranges to the sheriff, in which he claimed the fruit fly magots would bo found. On opening the oranges they were found to be alive inside, and on close examination thoy appeared to have all the identifying marks of the embryo fruit fly. The fruit was shown to the different members of the Chamber of Commerce commit tee, and it was decided by the she riff that the best thing to do was to Bend the samples to Honolulu to the experts in order that there might be no mistake made. In the meantime orders were issued and all the fruit in the orchard of Pia Cockett at Waikapu, where the sup posed fruit fly was found, has been destroyed, and a close watch is be ing kept on all fruit in the vicinity, and just as soon as there are any signs elsewhere, the fruit will be destroyed also. Up to the present time, no word has been received from Honolulu, as to what has been the result of the examination of the fruit sent there. JUVENILE. Bird's Christmas Carol, Wiggin. Dick Randall, E.

Ad doesn't care for the glare of the night life and you will rarely sec him in the haunts where the sports are supposed, to congregate. He has a penchant for diamonds, the bigger the batter, and also spends much of his time in figuring out real estate deals, having bought considerable property in the southern part of the State. time who knows the value of a dol lar, Ad Wolgast is the man. Battling Nelson, generally con sidered thrifty, has been labeled as one of the unluckfest investors among the fighters. The Dane has always listened with a kindly ear to real estate propositions and never more so than when it was a farm at stake. Stocks, mining and other wise, 'have attracted his attention, and that is why he has less to show for his investments than one might expect. His buy of Ilegewisch city property was a disappointment, ho has a lot of stocks that will never bring what he paid for them and his farming purposes are said to have been less, than fair business ventures. For all that, I doubt if there is a busier fighter In thu game than Battling. Nelson, for he can generally occupy himself with one thing or another. ft One couldn't say that Jimmy Britt is a chap with any particular hobby, unless it is to dress in the latest fashion and to talk. And Jim my, with his club life and his tra vels, is an interesting talker. Ho can tell a story and tell it well and whorevcr you find Jimmy Britt you will find an audience that is being entertained. Terry McGovcrn used to bo a great fellow Jo spend lots of time with his babies. Young Corbett, on the contrary, liked always to be up and doing. There was no greater gam bler than tho Denvcrite, which is why he camo to the end with so lit tle money. To this day, race track followers tell of tho afternoon when Young Corbett lost $9000, all tho money he had in tho world, and never turned a hair. John L. Sullivan liked to drink beer and hobnob with his friends in the barrooms, but it must bo re membered that Sullivan was of a day and ago in which that was tho prime amusement for fistic cham pions. Bob Fitzsimmons had ono fad. Whenever there was an idle moment. Fitz could bo found in some black smith shop and all over the country aro souvenir horseshoes turned out by Ruby Robert. James J. Corbett was a fancy dresser, but by way of recreation ho was very much of a card player. Corbett, when in his prime as a ringstcr, never played for anything more than nominal stakes, but whist j and tho liko whiled away many an hour for him. Tom Sharkey had but ono idea get tho money. That thought was his chief one all through life, and how successful he was is proved by tho way he husbanded his coin. It was as much amusement for tho sailor to savo a dollar as would bo for another fighter to toss away a hundred. James J. Jeffries is of such recent origin that it is woU . understood how ho hates crowds janU tho like. The Free Sugar Bill Intended to Be the Beginning of the End of Protection. The bill for the removal -of all duties on imported sugar, which has passed the IIouso of Representa tives might well bo called a. bill' to promote tho election ,of a Republi can President, for it Is a concrcto illustration of what the Democrats mean when they avow the intention of sweeping every vestige of protec tion from our statutes. The bill will not become a law until after the 4th of next March. Whether that or any similar bill a stalwart Republican liko President-, Taft or a free-trade Democrat like l.j Champ Clark, Woodrow Wilson o'rV at' 4S3 Governor Harmon. J . Whether tho bill will pass tjiej, Senate is uncertain. It depends on!' -the attitude of such Senators as Works, who is not known to have , any views of his own on the tariff, but is associated with other namby- ; pambys who profess to be Republi cans but who usually join withJ.be Democrats in assaults on the funda mental Republican doctrine. ' In tho meantime those interested in beet-sugar culture are organizing to resist tho threatened destruction of their industry, but they may as well understand that they will have no influenco if they do not avow themselves equally ready to oppose tho destruction of other industries. The consumption of sugar by tho average family is about 300 pounds a year, and with tho "saving" of Vz cents per pound promised by Mr. Underwood, each family would "savo" less than 1 cents a day by free sugar. But if our workingmen and clerks take the bait and assist in destroy ing our beet-sugar industry, they should know without our telling them that a good many millions of farmers will vote to tako the duty! from products by tho manufacture of which they live and reduce tho wages which industry and commerce in this country can pay. The sugar-beet industry', is 110 more danger than all other American industries. If one is put on a f ree trado basis, the rest will probably go there also. Instead of organiz ing to savo tho sugar industry tho sugar-beet growers must organize to save protection to American indust ries bar nono that is worthy of protection. And that means to send stalwart Republicans to Congress and not yj such wobblers as Senator Work's ; who is likely to get universal con tempt by voting for protection to his own immediate constituents whilo voting to rcmovo it from everybody else. Tho danger to protection comes solely from tho so-called- insurgent Republicans. To elect ono of them or any Ono in avowed sympathy with them is to vote for free trade and tho European scalo of wages. Morris Kcohokalolc, left Honolulu for the coast, where he will attend the cou-' vention of the Longshoremen's Association. Jeff appreciated nothing better than hunting, solitary if need be, but usually with some chosen com panion. At Rowardetinan and even at Moano Springs, when Jeffries was 8ofmuch of a bear, you could get him Btarted to talking of his hunting exploits any time you might desire.
