Born in New York Sept o, 1856,
standing feet inches in height and
weighing 1876 pounds, he stands out
prominently as an example of the bene-
fits of Systematic athletics, and, al
though his first contest was a one mile
skating race, which he won from field
of 80 competitors, in 1867, he again
doomed up as a competitor for the figure
skating championship for 1897, which
he won over eight competitors, includ-
ing representatives from Canada and
Boston, thus completing an even 80
years of competition champion, feat
probably never before duplicated

first race Mr.. Phillips won nearly every
skating race in this vicinity, and in

the extensive grounds, admiring the
many effective bits of landscape gard

beauties of the place. The realization
of old Hawaiian life in the grass house
attracted many. This is really unique
on the islands and, bar fire, will last
as an example when every grass house
on the islands has passed away. The
magnificent bath, built of massive lava
work, the bottom covered with porce-

clear artes,an water reminded one of
the "fr;gidarium" in one of the baths

WILLIAM -AND SOCIALISTS
~. ri = ;. n "
GERMAN EMPEROR DECLARES
WAR AGAINST THEN.
German Socialists Reply in Defiant
Manner-The Kaiser Fully Deter
mined to Root Socialism.

BERLIN, March 6.-Throughout the
week the latest anti-socialist speech
of the Emperor, at the Brandenburg
banquet has echoed and reeclroed all
over Germany. 1t appears that the
speech was much more violent than
officially reported. His Majesty really
said that socialism must be out-rooted
to the last trace, and he described
socialism as "That pest which infests
our whole nation" He further referred
to his grandfather's (William y CO.
workers, Bismarck and Won Moltlle, rs
'mere tools of his august will" and
concluded with saying: 81 shall be
glad to know that everyone's hand is
in mine, that of the noble and that of
the serf."
The Socialist press replied to the
challenge. The Norwaerts in defiant
article says: German socialism will
know how to defeat projected at
tempts hidden under the cloud of 10y
atty and patriotism to undermine the
sacred rights of the people. Down
with the revolution from above" The
Vorwaerts adds that the centenary
sion for fresh persecution of social
ism, the liberty of the press and the
election franchise. In another issue
the Norwaerts furnishes historical
proof in William Is own letters, that
William | was the tool of Bismarck
and Won Moltke instead of they being
his, and says: "He was the pushed
one and not the pusher."
The correspondent of the Associated
Press learns that the Emperor is fully
determined to act up to his words and
up-root socialism. Unfortunately, gov
eminent circles is divided as to how
the aim can be accomplished. The
Imperial Chancellor, Prince Hohenlohe
is backed up by DR.. Won Bosttiche
Marschall Won Beberstein, minister
for foreign affairs, against attempting
special anti-social legislation in The
reichstag or to restrict the present lib
erty of the press or the election fran
chise. On the other hand the Prussiar
minist reof the interior, Freiherr voi
Der Recke, Won Der Horst and DR.
Miguel, the minister of finance, sup
port the Emperor in his conviction
that repressive measures of utmos
severity are needed to neutralize tn,
socialist agitation. Prince Hohenlohe'
views are reflected by the Cologne Ga
, zette, which urges hat the existing
means will suffice to keep socialism
under. The leading Liberal newspap
J ers express themselves similarly
