He Was ObIiging.

An effective reproof was that given by
an elderly man 10 a fashionably dressed
young woman. who, as it seems must
have been surprised out of her man
ners."
The young woman was walking rapidly
along a street shaded by many trees,
when the elderly man, coming up behind
her, saw large, luzzy caterpillar on the
collar of her coat.
II beg your pardon" he said, laying a
OBTAINING hand on her arm as he spoke
and removing the obnoxious crawler, Il
wished TO take OFF this caterpillar which
was almost at your neck
The young woman stared haughtily and
with an air of resentment at the cater
pillar and was about to pass on, with no
word of thanks.
IF | have made a mistake and you
would prefer to have the caterpillar re-
placed, can easily put it back, said the
gentleman. courteous.y. suiting the ac-
ton to the word.-Youth's Companion.

A PUR1TANICAL REPUBLIC.

Ii all accounts be true, the little re-
public of Hawaii is very puritanical in
many respects. This comes from the
fact that the revolutionists who over
threw the native government are
largely the sons of missionaries and
have carried the ideas of their early
religious training into their govern
ment. Liquor selling is made a crime
except in certain parts of Honolulu.
The one club Of the place is not al
lowed 10 have a bar or sell drinks
though the club members may have
their private lockers in which thew
Keep what they wish to drink. PLAYING
cards are made contraband, and 1t is
an offense to sell them. 1t is said
that they cannot be bought anywhere
though In one or two stores they are
given away with lead pencils, for
which sixty cents a piece is paid. In
this miniature American republic in
the midst Of the Pacific the great
American game of poker is forbidden
anywhere, while fine is imposed upon
those caught playing it. Nothing could
be more un-American than this A
late law requires that every 'esident,
or traveller residing in the republic for
| thirty days or more, shall register at
the court house and leave his thumb
mark. The law should be amended
so as to permit the measurement of
| residents and travellers by the Ber-
lilion system.
All this is extremely ridiculous and
makes one wonder in just what par
ticulars this little Hawaiian republic
| differs from some of the petty tyran-
meal principalities of Europe.

TALES OF THE DAY
Bring the x-Ray.

The investigators whose names appear

WAITING.

Golden summer and glowing wood
And shining leaves o'erhead,
Mazes of verdure and blossom
And fair green moss to tread.
Who should be Sayer than I?-but no,
| wait and my heart is sore,
Listen and wait for a bird TO sing
That sang III the wood before.
What though the rich air CULVER,
The water sparkle along,
What thought the cushat is cooling,
l am waiting for that one song.
Waiting and listening and longing,
Summer is shining in vain,
Waiting and listening and longing
For the song of that bird again
But l know that if one bright presence
Adown the pathway drew near,
That bird on the instant were singing.
The whole of my world were here.

1t is a common and only too well

very suspicious looking characters had
been seen in the back yard of par
ticular residence He communicated
tine fact to the policeman on duty, who
watched the place for a while. Not

acterS the policeman got a small boy
to climb over the fence and unlock
the gate. 1t was discovered that rear
shutter had been pried off. The place,
which had been closed for the sum
mer, had been entered. Everything
was in confusion Clothing and silver
ware were all packed ready to carry
away. The two strange men were
spied cut and arrested making no
resistance. They proved to be two old
offenders They were given hearing,
indicted by the grand jury, brought
before the judge at quarter sessions,
pleaded guilty and sentenced to the
penftentialy for ten years, and all
within the space of two hours.
In imposing the sentence the judge
said that the robbing of closed houses
was a thing easily accomplished but
exceedingly hard of detection, and
hence it was necessary to make an
example Said he: I'VE will therefore
make an example of you two in order
to deter others from following in your
footsteps, and to protect society from
the depredations of such individuals.
We direct that you each shall undergo
an imprisonment of ten years at labor
in the eastern penitentiary; to stand

have been complied with

Judge vineyards Heavy Fine.

Judge S. G. Wingard, of Walla Walla,
who was one of the associate justices
during territorial days, spent several
days III the city last week looking after
property interests and viewing the sur
rounding country, regarding which he
was very eulogistic. The judge is known
throughout the state as quite sports
man, and in this connection Mr.. Bruce
Milroy relates the following story: The
judge was at Olympia attending court,
and hunting party had been made up
consisting of himself, Capt. B. B. futile,
the U. S. postal inspector, Hazard
Stevens, son of Ex-Governor Stevens, and
Vic Tull, nephew of Governor Ferry.
After a successful day of shooting, they
started home in excellent spirits, and
their team was fully as risky as they
were. This was the only cause of the
Judge feeling any disquietude, for be had
been in the habit of driving an old horse
that could not make six miles an hour at
his best. One of the boys, noticing that
the judge was trifie nervous, let off
both barrels of his shotgun and gave the
horses their head. The Judge was in
agony and expected every minute would
be his last. He protested and said, "For
Gods sake, don't do that" but one after
another emptied their fowling pieces.
Finally the Judge screwed up his courage
as the maddened team was approaching
the long bridge leading to the city and,
rising in his seat, he pointed the gun
barrels up the street and let fly. When
the horses were finally stopped in the
city the entire party was arrested
Stevens, Tull and futile for fast driving
and Wingard for fast driving and shoot
ing within the city limits. The munich
pal court dealt leniently with the young
men, but gave the judge all that the
law would allow.
