Honolulu, August 4. "Yes, I consider our first Agricultural exhibit under t h c territorial government an eminently satis factory one," said Commissioner of Agriculture Wray Taylor. "Of course you must remember that it was only a beginning, following exhibits will have the ndvautagc of all the experience and advertising of this one. We were disappointed in a few things and we could not arrange the displays exactly as we wanted to, but the fair succeeded I feel sure, in its primary object, that of arousing and increasing the gen eral interest in the agricultural products of Hawaii. " Before we go any further, I want to say that whatever interest was aroused will not be allowed to die down. Wc nrc not going to rest on our oars until next year but try and keep things moving in the interim. I intend in about four months from now giving an exhi bit in the government nursery grounds, not on a large scale at nil, indeed limited to one or two sub jects. The nursery is admirably adapted in many ways for such n display. The grounds arc ver pleasant and, planted as they are with varieties of rare shrubs and trees, very instructive. We nre now having labels placed on the trees so that he who runs, may read. There is a large space there that could readily be roofed over with an awning, benches could be distributed about the walks and in stead of the afternoon band concert at Emma square some afternoon, wc will hold it at the nursery. "Such an exhibit would emulate in a small way, the dahlia and chrysanthemum show of other countries. With our climate, the flower display of Hawaii should be wonderful under proper interest. Mr. Perkins has got a fungus that acts very energetically on the Jap anese beetle pest and wc arc rapidly finding enemies for our flower des troying pests. The first exhibit might be confined to carnations, the next to ferns and so on. "Forester Haugh's miniature for est has been taken to the nursery and placed under a big tree where the young trees are doing splendid ly. There were not slips as many seemed to think but seedlings tak en out of the nursery pots up Nu uanti valley. There were six vari eties in nil. The silk oak, eucal yptus, acacia melnoxylon (a sort of foreign koa), Monterey cypress and catalpa. "To return to the fair. Every thing went along very smoothly and the chief elements of the suc cess, Ithe exhibitors themselves, seemed highly pleased. Many of them expressed surprise at our ca pability in displaying the exhibits as well as wc did. There have been a large number of "if we had only known" laments from people who had good exibits to make but refrained for various reasons. One exhibit of naval oranges and an other of green figs and big banana bunches will come in next year if they still have the goods to deliver. "Wc disappointed in not getting a big display of rice, paddy and sugar cane. The idea of an agri cultural exhibit iu Hawaii without sugar cane ! I would have made them from the department but we much interested. Next time wc ought to get a good appropriation and then the grazier's association can work in hand with us. The interests of both, in questions ot forests and fodder supply, lie very closely together and a fair with poultry and cattle would be very interesting. All our benches wc still have ready for future occasions. Wc have kept within the appropri ations all right, indeed some of the exhibitors who were entitled to money have stated that they would prefer the diplomas which really arc more valuable to them as ccr- micaics ot merit, so that wc that way too."

HACKFELD fi- CO., Ltd. Resident Agonts, HILO ATTACK 01,1) WILL. Knlicrl William Holt Heirs Srok to lirenk Old Teat nine nt. A most remarkable will case has just been instituted, being nothing less than to break a will admitted to probate in the Supreme Court torty years ago. It is the last will and testament of Robert William Holt, who died iu Honolulu on July 6, 1862, and whose will was presented for probate four days later. The de ceased left surviving him three sons James R. Holt and John D. Holt now living and Owen J. Holt the elder now deceased and a daughter named Elizabeth, then the wife of William A. Aldrich, both of whom have since deceased, as well as a widow, Wali Holt, since deceased. The petitioners for revocation of the will are: James R. Holt, John D. Holt, John D. Holt Jr., James L. Holt and John F. Colburn, whose respective rights as suitors arc set forth in the petition. William A. Aldrich, son-in-law of the testator, was appointed ex ecutor of the will, after whom came divers persons acting as adminis trators or trustees, the present trustee being Henry Smith who succeeded Bruce Cartwright. The trust at present comprises land on this island of a value exceeding $10,000 and personal property of the value of about $27,000. The petition asks: That the order of the Supreme Court on July 26, 1862, admitting the will to probate, may be re voked, annulled and cancelled. That the order appointing Wil liam A. Aldrich as executor may be revoked, annulled nnd cancelled. That the subsequent orders ap pointing in succession James W. Austin, Henry Thompson, James W. Austin, A. Francis Judd, A. J. Cartwright and Bruce Cartwright, as administrators or trustees, may be severally revoked, annulled and cancelled. That the order of the Circuit Court on June 4, 1900, appointing Henry Smith as trustee be revoked annulled and cancelled. That said Robert William Holt be declared and decreed to have died intestate, and that an admin istrator of his estate be appointed. That Carlos A. Long or some other suitable person, acceptable to petitioners, be appointed as admin istrator. That the usual orders for publi cation be made, and the parties in terested be cited to appear. C. W.

The most conspicuous j instance of such reversion in the , last decades of the nineteenth cen tury is in the revelations of coal tar and the highly developed utiliz ation of its many by-products. In the course of a resume of the sub ject by industries the report says, among other things, that from 3, 000,000 to $., 000,000 worth of wool fat and potash are run down the streams and wasted annually in the United States, and similar lost opportunities for utilizing waste material are pointed out.
