FOR THE INAUGURAL.
The Committee Has Completed the
Preparations.


Preparations.
Washington, March l. Inaugural
preparations come on apace. Within
the past twenty-four hours the crowds
have begun to show themselves on the
streets; the depot platforms and the
hotel Hobbies are becoming more and
more congested with each incoming
train. Decorations begin to fiaunt
along the avenues. The inaugural COM
mittee has practically wound up its
work but the headquarters are still
open for the reception of visitors. SO
far as the launching of the new adj
ministration can be provided for in ad-
vance, there seems nothing left I'M
done to assure success. Practically all
of the southwest corner of the Ebbitt
house, OH the third floor. has been re-
served for the Mckinley party.

The Professors Mistake

An amusing story is told about o
professor. The learned gentleman has n
wife and family; but, professorlike, his
thoughts are always with his books.
One evening his wife. who had been
out for some hours, returned to find the
house remarkably quiet. She had left
the children playing about, but now
they were nowhere to be seen.
She demanded to be told what had
become of them, and the professor ex.
planned that as they had made good
deal of noise he had put them to bed
without waiting for her or calling a
maid.
Il hope they gave you no trouble, "
she said.

the exception of the one in the cot here.
He objected good deal to my undress-
ing him and putting him to bed"
The wife went to inspect the cot.

TROPIC RAIN.
By Robert Louis Stevenson.

(By Robert Louis Stevenson)
Sudden the thunder was drowned
quenched was the dim light,
And the angel-Spirit of rain laughed
out loud in the night,
Loud as the maddened river raves in
the cloven glen,
Angel of rain, You laughed and leaped
on the roofs of men.
And the sleeperS sprang in their beds,
and joyed and feared as you fell;
You struck and my cabin quailed, the
roof of it roared like a bull
You spoke, and at once the mountain
shouted and shook with brooks.
You ceased, and the day returned, rosy
with virgin looks.
And methought that beauty and terror
are only one, not two:
And the world has room for love and
death and thunder and dew;
And all the sinews of hell slumber in
summer air;
And the face of God is rock, but the
face of the rock is fair.
Beneficent streams of tears flow at the
finger of pain;
And out of the cloud that smiles, be-
neficent showers of rain.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1897-04-09

One of the theories advanced
by the advocates of wOman's suff-
rage is that the presence of the
mothers and daughters in the eau
Gus and at the polls Will have a
refining and purifying influence
on politics. Practice, however,
has not always proved the the
DRY IL good one, as was evidenced
by the events of POpulist con
yention held in Denver, Colo, not
long since. The convention was
made up of men and women i'll
about equal numbers. According
to press dispatches, Mrs. Alice
Faulkner was a leading figure in
one row and Boiler Inspector w.
X. Frazier" Il defenselesS, unas-
Stunning man, was thrown out Of
the hall by a delegation of men
and women, because he accused
some of the members with being
controlled by the trusts and mo-
nOpolies. One Mr.. Akers, attempt
ed to make a speech, but was in
terrupted by one of his sister del
egates, who announced that 1t
was about time for him to go
out and choke himself to death"
Mr.. AkerS retOrted that Mrs.
Reed had not added anything to
her reputation by going out as a
street singer" Miss Holmes, one
of the refined delegates, then took
up the cudgel and wanted to
know why the men stood by and
allowed the women to be Insult
ed. None of the men responded
to the appeal, whereupon Mrs.
Reed and Miss Holmes fell upon
Mr.. Akers, and. according to the
newspaper report, administered
the punishment themselves, aud
tore most of Mr.. ,Akers' beard out
of his face" The convention aid
iourned shortly after. No doubt
women have just as much right
To vote as the men. but we doubt
whether the refining influence
influence will always be apparent.
