LOSES TASTE FOR MOSQUITO
Fish imported to Kill Insect Change
Their Diet and Turn to
Shrimp
Citizens of various American dis
tricts have been endeavoring to rid
their neighborhoods of mosquitoes by
stocking their nonds with little import
ed fish which eat the mosquito larvae
That the plan has its drawbacks is in I
dicated by the following from the Ha
waiian Star A war of the races is
going on in local fresh water and
brackish waters and there has been
slaughter in the- ranks which threat
ens the extinction of at least one
species of Hawaiian fresh water fishes
The tender and toothsome Opu nakea
the little fish which a comparatirely
short time ago one might buy already
cooked and Avrapped In leaves in the
fish market or from peddling natives
is becoming so scarce that its entire
disappearance seems to be offly a mat 1
ter of time The frogs and the top 1
minnows are accomplishing its down
fall these voracious enemies greedily
devouring its spawn
The topminnows or mosquito fish
as they are called are thriving amaz
ingly in the local ponds ut like the
mongoose have diverted their tastes
from the food Avhich it was intended
they should subsist on The mongoose
found chicken more to its taste than
cane rat and the topminnows diet
reems to have changed from skeeter
to shrimp It is true that where there
is nothing to eat but mosquito larvae
the minnows devour them fast enough
but when shrimps and skeeters both
figure on the bill of fare both are
treated impartially by the ravenous
little fish
Out Moanalua and Kalihi way in
the streams which empty themselves
into the sea and in which shrimps
abounded by the million a short time
ago practically none are now to be

TO TUNNEL ENGLISH CHANNEL
i
Scheme Is Being Revived in Spite ofj
Refusal to Pass Last
Bill
The scheme for a tunnel betweenj
England and France is being revived
in spite oiMthe emphatic refusal of
the last bllKwhich was presented in
1907 But great changes have boanj
brought about since then in relation
to the military opposition to the
scheme for the coming of the aero
plane and its rapid development as
an implement of war have to some
extoit removed the idea of danger
from invasion by tunnel
If 11 aeroplanes can cross the
channel together as they did a few
weeks ago there is little reason why
an army of them may not do so in
the near future if they wished A tun
nel also might under certain circum i
stances be a help in time of wan
rather than a danger as much of our
food supply could be brought
through it
The chief advantage however of
the tunnel would he an increase of
trade anfr tourist traffic between Eng-
land and France as well as countries
beyond France At present the bor j
ings at each side sop well over a
mile and it is estimated that the
whole work could be completed with J
in five years as there is no hard rock
to be pierced The adoption of elec i
tricity instead of steam would also

had noticed that a bottle in my locked
chest was too often emptied and one
day I caught her slamming the door of
the chest and then I knew I said
nothing I took the bottle of mor
phine tablets and placed them insida
a human skull which I kept on my
desk That was the last of the mor
phine thefts
One day I asked the servant why
she never dusted the skull on my desk
In fact I reprimanded her for careless
ness
Oh doctor she said Tm afraid
of bones Id rather lose my job than
touch that skull
And now continued the doctor
Tm not afraid to put a roll of money
in that skull Its safer than any

An Ancient Bet
Near the ancient country seat of
the Carews in Cornwall England
stands a quaint old church to the doori
of which are nailed four horse shoes
These have been in their present
sition for nearly 500 years A former
member of the Carew family made a
wager with a friend that he would ridel
his horse a mile out to sea In Tor bay
and back again The fact was more
difficult than appears at first sight for
the cross currents are dangerous even
for boats
He won the bet howeAer and nailed
the four horse shoes of his steed tol
