NEW COLLEGE GARDENS, OXFORD.

On this old lawn, where lost hours pass
Across the shadows dark with dew,
Where autumn on the thick sweet grass
Has laid a weary leaf or two,
When the young morning. keenly sweet,
Breathes secrets to the silent air,
Happy is he whose lingering feet
May wander lonely there.
The enchantment Of the dreaming lines.
The magic Of the quiet hours,
Breathe unheard tales OF other times
And other destinies than ours.
The feet that long ago walked hero
Still, noiseiess. walk beside our feet,
Poor ghosts, who found this garden dear
And found the morning sweet.
Age weeps that it no more may hold
The heartsche that youth clasps SO close.
Pain finely shaped In pleasures mold,
A thorn deep hidden in q rose. SIC 1uI5

That may in no new garden grow
It's root is IN the hearts of those

Yesterday morning Captain Kanae

there was a large lot of opium in Mrs.
Halualani's house on Nuuanu avenue
which could be got at very easily.
Captain Kanae started out immedi-
ately Chu Kan following.
On the way to the house designated
the Chinaman said that All Wal kept a
roi shop right next to Mrs. Halualani's
house. This had been rented from
Mrs. Halualani herself. Chu Kan
claimed that the opium, although it
had been in the poi factory in barrel,
was in Mrs. Halualani's house. He
stated, further, that the native woman
and man had seen the opium. 1t was
his intention to put up a job on the
natives, so as to get them away from
the place, while he went around the
back way to get the opium out. For
this little transaction he offered Cap
tain Kanae the sum of 800, but the
police officer said nothing and walked
on.
Just as the two were nearing the poi
factory they met Mrs. Halualani and
native man. They told the whole story
OF how they had seen the opium and
the suspicious actions of All Wal.
Captain Kanae made a search of the
HaluaIain house and found So tins done
up in bag.
Both Chu Kan and All Wal were ar
rested. Their case will probably come
up in the police court today.
