to the Lowrey residence, just mauka
and there saw half-white boy about
sixteen years old taking stealthy peeps
in at one of the windows. He at once
notified his mother, who ran over TO
the Lowrey home. The intruder caught
sight of some one coming and dropped
the spade he had in his hand, made a
break for the gulch near by, ran into
the street and then on as hard as he
could go toward Waikiki. OF course he
may not have meant any harm, but his
gazing in at a window with spade in
his hand. and then running off at full
speed at the appearance of any one,
would at least go TO show that the boy
had a guilty conscience.

a GOOD MEMORY.
Bright Young American Staggered
His German Challengers
Kansas City Star

story is told OF bright young Amer
lean and several German Officers who,
al dinner one evening, set out 10 make
him uncomfortable by chatting him about
his country. The young man is Albert H.
Washburn, the United States consular
agent at Magdeburg. Henry +. Merritt
the consul at Chenlnitz, was the first
ono Of the Americans to be attacked with
taunt from one OF the Germans that he
could not give the names OF the Presidents
Of the United States. Merritt named them
over with some deliberation, and drew
from his German friend the dcclarationthut
he did not believe there was another Amer
lean present who could do it.
Young Washburn had said nothing until
now, but he broke In and declared: Il
can do it, and will give you the vice presi-
dents" He was about to begin, when
second thought struck him, and he said:
while ! am about it l might as wen
give you the Secretaries OF State, too"
The Germans got down book giving the
names. and kept tab on the young man as
he correctly went through the list. They
were pretty wei! backed down already,
but Washburn had no idea of letting them
off SO easily. NOW, / should like to
know" he said, whether any OF you can
give the names of the Prussian rulers from
the time OF Charlemagne and his sons
down to the Emperor William"
Not one of them could go half through the
list, and they were on the point of apologiZ-
ing 10 the young Massachusetts scholar
when he took them down still more by
modestly suggesting, Perhaps l had bet
| ter do it for you He began with Charlie
| magnc and went through the list without
| break, much to the establishment of his
| German hosts and the delight of Consul
Edwards and the other Americans. How
did you Go it," asked Merritt. 'Oh, nay
| father had a taste for such things and
| taught them to me when was Toy, and,
you see. they are sometimes useful to
| know" he replied.

A MOTHERS GRATITUDE.

You can thank this girl for your child's
safety, and then he told the entire story
of how Kitty bad rescued the child. Well,
sir, j never saw such scene before in my
life, and ] never have since. In the first
place. the mother made rush at Kitty,
threw her arms around her neck, and tried
TO kiss her. But Kitty threw her off.
You mustn't kiss met she cried. You
mustn't do ii. You don't know what you
are doing. I'm not fit to kiss you
For moment the woman drew off and
looked at Kitty. Then she realized all at
once what Kitty's words meant. She hest
tated, but onlyfor second, and then with a
glanceat her husband, who odded his head
She walked over TO Kitty. put hand on
each cheek, and, raising her head, kissed
her three times on the mouth.
--s - God bless you was all she said, and
poor Kitty gave in all at once and burst
into tears. There were tears In Byrnes'
eyes, too Then the father stepped for
ward and shook Kittys hand. and in a
very shaky voice asked if there wasn't
something he could do for her.
4" 'Nothing,' sobbed the girl. Nothing
at all. I'm better off as l am Then
the man tried to press some money on
her, but she absolutely refused to take
it, and, after another pathetic scene, father,
mother and daughter went away, leaving
US three standing there.

after them. why don't you take brace?

THE CHIEFS KIND HEART.
Take start on that, Kitty said
Byrnes, and he handed her two twenty
dollar bills. Just make one try at it, any
way
The girl looked at the bills for a moment,
then strange light came into her eyes,
hopeful smile spread over her face, and she
said:
8 Captain, I'll try it. / will. so help
me God, and if win out, you shall hear
from me, and she went out of the station
house.
1.-The next night we knew by the in
quiries that had been made among the police
men that Kitty had gone. and weeks worked
into months and still she didn't come back.
Byrncs was tickled 10 death over it, and
he kept repeating that Kitty would let us
know some day that she had reformed.
Well, a year passed. and we had about for
gotten the girl, when one night cab drove
up to the station-house door and a coach
man broughtin card inscribed-well, wen
say with the name Mrs. Joseph Brown
although that wasn't whatit was. Thecard
was for Capt. b yrnes, he said. and the lady
wanted toknowi If she could see Capt. B yrnes

"a moment later the door opened and in
walked a woman. She was dressed in ex-
quisite taste, although modestly, and
thought as / looked at her that l had

still for a moment and looked at the cap

You don't know me?' she said finally,
smiling and revealing a row OF even white
teeth. You don't remember me, cap

Eueenie,s FIRST Ancestor

1t is not generally known that Empress
Eugene was partly an Irishwoman. Yet
upon one side she was descended from an
Irish solder of fortune-there were any
amount of them who made a name and
place for himself in the intermnabIe Span
ish wars. When there was talk OH mar
rying the Emperor Napoleon, some of the
Old nobility sneered at her pedigree, Then
came heralds tracing out Irish blood lines
until the French authorities in disgust con-
coded that Eugene was descended from all
the royalties of Ireland back to Brian Boru

was sitting in the station-house making
up the bIotter. Byrnes was sitting next to
me, his feet in the air. quietly putting at a
cigar. Suddenly the door opened and in
walked Kitty, leading welI-dressed girl
about seventeen years of age, whose eyes
were red from weeping. Kitty was per
fectIy sober, but seemed excited, and i
don't think ever saw her looking so pretty.
Well, Kitty said Byrnes, what is
ito
- Captain, said tic girl, I brought this
little thing around for you to take care
Of. Just got her in time, too
1T seems that Kitty bad seen the child

man was taking the girl into Il house OF

but a policeman. whom Kitty called, set

" Kitty said Byrnes, after hearing the
wonans story, why did you do this?'
- Because / couldn't stand by and see a
child ruined replied the woman. She
has a home and u mother, and is a mere
school girl
''WelI, Byrnes didn't say word, but he
took Kitty and the child into his room and
there found out from the child what her
name was, and where she lived. In half
an hour her parents were at the station
house, and when they heard the story the
mother tainted dead away, ana the father
turned pale. When both had recovered

had drawn off 10 one end of the room, and
said:
