ROAD CLUR.

At meeting of the Honolulu Road
Club last evening it was decided not
to change the clubs colors, red and
black. 1t was thought advisable by
some of the members to change, ow-
ing to the fact that the High School
had the same colors. A committee
consisting of Kirk Porter, Ed Dekum
and Gus Mauer was chosen to arrange
some entertainment for the Club on
Thanksgiving evening. There will be
no racing. A high jinks" will most
likely be on the program.
VIM. G. Irwin was made an honorary
member of the club last evening and
George Otterson was admitted to
active membership.

jolly General Robson.

The Philadelphia Record says: cal
though rs years have bowed the frame
and silvered the hair of General Robe
son, the ex-secretary of the navy, it has
not dimmed the old man s intellect or
blunted his appreciation of joke. The
general, who was in the city recently on
legal business, told many laughable
stories of the memorable campaigns in
which he had taken part. Like all old
people who are fond of notwithstanding,
he is firmly of the opinion that in his
day the women were prettier than now,
the men Drawer and brainier and the
humorists more brilliant Why, said
he, do you remember how they used to
soak me in the comic papers? They laid
great stress upon the fact that l was not
fit appointment for secretary of the
navy because knew nothing about ship
building. One of the funniest pictures l
ever saw was on this subject. The cap
ton of the picture was ''His First
VISIT" and it represented me on the
deck of a warship peering down hatch
way. Underneath the picture was
line which quoted me as saying, why,
the ID thing is hollow, amt it?''
At the remembrance of it the general
laughed until his huge frame shook. .

Loneliness of Arctic Icefie1ds.

On til inland hunting trips an ON
inous silence reigned. We were then
having alternate day and night, and
the spirit of the approaching months Of
darkness seemed to hold the day in
thrall The weird desolatiOn and lone
illness of the great peaks, the interim
nable ice caps, lustrous and cold under
the gray waste of cloud, the wide, messy
stretches thickset with irregular bowl
ders of many hues and thickly starred
with white, pink, purple and yellow
flowers, the absence of life, the wind
less hush-aIl these wove a web of awe
about ones mental perceptions and
made the world i'll which we walked
seem part of strange dreams. Frank

business there will be dead
until after the election in
November. We knew it
would be and took advantage
of the manufacturers will
ingneSS to part with their
goods below cost, rather
than hold them over. You
share the benefits with us.
This week we are offering
you an opportunity of a life
time to secure towels. When
we say cut down the prices,
it does not mean old stock,
sold cheap to get rid of them,
but new articles reduced to
meet popular demand.
We have linen towels all
lengths and qualities; fine
article for the boudoir and
INDISPENSABLE TO ladies and
children. Honey comb towels
cheaper in price and not so
good in quality, suitable for
ordinary use. Turkish
towels for the bath are as
necessary as soap, no bath
room can be considered
complete or perfect in its
furnishings without them,
and the prices are right.
A lot of good cotton towels
at SI.25 per dozen means
money in you pocket.

ENGLISH CHILDREN.
The Manner In Which They Are Allowed
to CadEe For Money.

to CadEe For Money.
Every American man must remember
the shock of surprise with which he first
encountered in an English novel the
notion of a schoolboy, a gentleman
son, taking money as a gift from his
parents friends and guests Nothing
could have been more foreign to the
American idea in my time than that.
and / suppose it is still the same
Neither parents nor boys could have
submitted to the thought without NOR
LITIGATION. But here the feeling, or at
least the fact, is quite different. A hard
working man who lives up to the last
penny of meager professional income
can give half sovereign tip to the
schoolboy son of friend or acquaint
ance of his who has $40, 1000 year, and
the boy will pocket it, and the father
will, at the most, look the other way l
used to think that this had it's explana
ton III the fact that parents and chill
dren were not united by so close bond
here as in America, and that the father
cared less than any American father
would care for the dignity and self re-
spect of his son. On the other hand,
however, it is certain that the English
father holds himself responsible for his
son and spends money solicitously in
trying to start him in life long past the
stage when an American youth would
be expected to go out and shift for him
self. And, indeed, the older one gets the
palmer it is to be seen that any and ev
cry attempt to dogmatize about the diff
ference between the two peoples of the
two countries must be subject to all sorts
of reservations and contradicting mOdi-
fications But it is true that the English
child is allowed to cadge fer money in
a way which is unknown to the Ameri-
can child of the same social grade, and
that this is by no means confined to
relatively poor people. This fact has al
ways seemed to me to rob the English
child of great deal Of the interest
which with US attaches to childhood
Not alone find him less interesting, it
is universal judgment upon him. -

BOHEMIA.

Where Iieth the land Bohemia?
Is ii enchanted ground?
Unto the place no guide or trace
Was e'er by searching found
Yet many wander through it
In blindness OF in scorn,
And some there dwell who love it well:
They are Bohemians born.
Here lieth the land Bohemia!
Strange light upon it beams,
This border land, whose outer strand
Melts in the sea OF dreams
Behind Us roars the real,
The world Of strife and din;
Our kindlier fate is here to wait
Until our ships come in.
O'ershadowing Bohemia,
Fame like mountain grand.
Piercing the skies, uplifts our eyes
From this, the lotos land.
The summit CLEANS III splendor
And beckons spirits bold
Fain would we go, yet, ali! we know
The heights Of fame are cold.
Here, resting in Bohemia,
Beside the waters still,
In meadows green, where Hippocrene
Winds as little rill,
We deem in pleasant places
Are cast our lines and lives,
Where grace and heart are more than art
And chivalry survives.

WHICH ARE YOU2


There are two kinds OF people on earth
today,
just two kinds of people-no more, say.
Not the sinner and saint, for it's vel
understood
The good are half bad and the bad are
half good.
Not the rich and the poor, for to count a
mans wealth
You must first know the state of his con-
science and health.
Not thehumble aud proud, for in life's lit
tie span
Who puts on vain airs is not counted a
man.
Not the happy and sad, for the swift fly
ing years
Bring each man his laughter and each
man his tears.
j mean
Are the people who lift and the people
who lean.
Wherever you go, you will find the worlds
masses
Are always divided in just these two
classse,
And, oddly enough, you VIII find, too,
ween,
There is only one litter to twenty who lean.
In which class are you Are you easing
the load
OF overtaxed lifters who toll down the
road
Or are you leaner, who lets others bear
Your portion oflabor and worry and care !?
