1t would be good idea for the Gov
eminent to look after some of the dogs
who roam the streets of Honolulu.
Walking along the streets in almost
any part Of the city, are seen any num-
Der of dogs. Some are NANCY dogs,
some are large and ferocious dogs,
some are small dogs who make more
noise than brass band. Honolulu
seems to dogs paradise. You can
find almost any species, breed or sized
dogs by the hundreds There ought
to be a law imposing license on all
dogs, and any dog caught without a
license should be held for a certain
length of time, after which they should
be sold or made away with.

Sweet iBy-and-By.''

This is how the now famous hymn
"Sweet By-and-by" came to be written:
Dr. fillmore Bennett, the author, lives
at Richmond, H., and is poor. The
HYMN was written by DR. Bennett at
Elkhorn, Wis, in 1868. The writing
of the words was based upon a remark
made by ]. P. Webster, who composed
the music. Mr.. Webster was OF an
exceedingly nervous and sensitive ma
ture, and subject to periods Of terrible
depression. In one of his melancholy
moods he CHANGED to drop in at the
house of DR.. Bennett, when the latter
asked him "What is the matter now A"
"Oh, it is no matter" replied the des-
pondent man, "it will be all right by
and-by." The last three words immedi-
ately conveyed suggestion TO DR..
Bennett, and he says "The idea Of
the hymn came to me like flash Of
sunlight" Turning to his desk, he
penned the words which have since
become so famous. He says it did MOI
take him more than twenty minutes tc
write the hymn.
