held Saturday evening for the purpose
of deciding on matters in connection

which amounted to $1,000 1t was
scarcely sufficient for a marble statue
and even if it had been the monu-
ment would probably have been placed
in Nuuanu Cemetery, where it would
have been seen only on occasions
when a funeral procession passed into
the grounds.
At II o'clock yesterday morning a
committee of the Citizens Guard, com
posed of Messrs. F. J. LowTey, chair
man; W H. Hogs, Theo. T. Lansing,
F, Weirick and George P. Castle, met
the Cabinet by appointment and free
ly discussed the proposition. The
committee, representing the entire
body of Citizens Guard, was anxious
that the memorial be placed in a po-
sition, not only where it would be
seen, but where it would be an orna-
ment to the city. The sum at hand is
limited, and it is the wish of the con-
tTibutoTs to make as good a show as
possible
A proposition was made to have the
memorial take the form of fountain
of heroic size and beautiful design, to
be erected in the triangle forming Pal
ace Square. At present this spot is
marred by the presence of the Chinese
shacks on the corner. The fountain,
as proposed, would materially add to
the other beauties of the locality and
take the eye from the shanties.
The plan met with the ready ap-
proval of President Dole, and permits
sion was at once granted. The mem
bers of the Cabinet acquiesced and
the committee will invite designs from
local artists, and when a decision is
made, it will be sent to the manufac-
turers in the States to be executed.
Just how long it will take to complete
the work is not known, but it is sure
to be ready for the Decoration Day
services next year. The space to be
occupied by the fountain will probably
be circular in form, and 80 feet in di-
ameter. A curbing of native stone will
surround this and enclose a grassy
sward. The fountain will be massive,
made of iron, and of a most attractive
design. The reference to Mr.. Carter
will be on a handsome bronze plate,
bearing an inscription in bold letters
The guardsmen are particularly hap
py over the result, as many inquiries
have been made of late regarding the
disposition of the money, and the COM
mittee is to be congratulated on the re-
suit of the efforts to locate the me-
mortal.

Now a Rush for Places in the
Ranks.


At nearly every meeting of Co. B,
n. G. H., applications for membership
are being handed in so that it will not
be long, if the good work continues,
before the requisite number of men
viii be obtained. The present mem
bers are doing all in their power to
increase the numbers and certainly
their work in the interests of the COM
pany is being crowned with success.
1t has been proposed that upon the
first Tuesday of each month, the reg
ular meeting night, a special feature
in the way of entertainment be pro-
vided for the boys. A committee has
been appointed to look into the matter
and report at the next meeting. The
first of the series of entertainments
will probably be a euchre party with a
suitable first and BOBBY prize. The
second will probably be an informal
dance and the third an evening Of
music and flow of wit All sorts of
good times will be arranged for the
boys.

it did not seem proper that the Gov
eminent did not promptly meet its OBJ
legations.
Minister Smith related portions of
his experience while in Japan, look
ing to the matter of epidemics, and
what is being done by the Government
to prevent its spread to these Islands.
He also stated that the United States
had sent man to Japan with Dr. Day
to look still further into it. This debt
had been incurred and the appropria-
ton was matter of great public ne
cessity, according to law.
Mr.. Jones said he couldn't see it.
AS there seemed no possibility of get
ting the appropriation bill passed, the
President said motion to adjourn was
in order. Carried unanimously.

A SPARRow's RIDE IN A FLY
WHEEL.-Birds have all sorts of queer
adventures, but perhaps what was the
oldest one of recent days is that
which befell sparrow at Anderson,
Indiana. 1t flew into knife and bar
mandatory, and, getting too near
small wheel, was sucked in. The
workmen noticed it 60 into the wheel,
but, knowing that the cylinder was
revolving at speed of 180 revolutions
a minute, took it for granted that the
bird had been killed. When the fac
tory shut down at noon the men were
astonished to hear gentle chirp from
the wheel, and 10! there was the
sparrow, as we'll as ever. They found
that the bird had clung to the strength
ening rod of the wheel and was in a
semi-dazed condition. They picked
him up and put him on table, and
thence, after collecting his wits, the
little bird flew to freedom. The wheel
in which the bird rode made $4,000
revolutions while it was upon it, and
so the tiny feathered creature travelled
70 $40 miles in the embrace of fly
wheel.

to fall in love with anyone who cannot

But la mere propose ct la file dis
pose. The irony of fate generally up
sets the most carefully arranged plans.
Besides, it is generally the case that
those who marry for money, or at
least with the expectation of possess
ing that desirable article, are apt in
this country to be sadly disappointed.
1t is very seldom, in this land of ups
and downs, that riches remain long in
one family, and young people with
great expectations generally find when
they are middle-aged that they have
neither the substance nor even the
shadow remaining, their only inherit
ance being expensive tastes and dis
inclination or want of will power to
work.
It would be far better if calculating
mammas would consult the statistics
in this respect, and would realize what
is really true, that poor young man
who has chosen his career, and who is
industrious, has a far greater chance
for future prosperity than the idle
rich, the butterflies of the day, the
majority of whom will end their days
in comparative poverty.

THE END.
Two DOC STORIES,

A pointer dog, owned by a we'll
known hunter of Sylvania, Va, made
the most wonderful point on record q
year or two ago. The hunter had
killed a partridge and the dog was
bringing it to him, when it tripped
over a log and fell on its back. Just
as it fell it scented another bird in the
grass few inches from its nose, and
became instantly rigid and immovable
in that unique position. The hunter
at first thought that something was
the matter with the pointer, but upon
seeing his tail so straight and quiver-
ing, he knew the dog was on the point.
1t was sight to thrill the heart of a
hunter-the dog lying there on its
hack with its feet high in the air, a
bird in its mouth and on a dead point.
The hunter wished for kodak to get
a photograph of the picture, but after
gazing at it in admiration for minute
or two, flushed the bird and killed it.
Speaking Of hunting, some Sylvania
sportsmen were discussing recently
some remarkable incidents in that line
that haye happened around here. One
of them told of how Mr.. w. H. Par
ker, of Rocky Ford, who loves to run
foxes and wild cats, and who keeps
good dogs, was chasing a cat up the
railroad one night just before the up
passenger train from Savannah came
along. His favorite dog was close
upon the cat in hot pursuit, and be.
hind them both was the on-coming
train. Closer and closer the dog press
ed, and harder and harder strained
the tired cat, both so excited that they
needed not the roaring engine behind
them. On trestle they went and the
dog was now within few feet of bis
prey, and was straining every nerve
for a last effort, when the train struck
and hurled him from the track, and
the next instant knocked the cat of
also, killing them both and laying
them almost side by side on the
ground. TO the heart Of hunter it
was a pathetic sight to see the dog ly-
ing dead within a few feet of the
game, and to know that he was killed
Just in the moment of victory.

PUTTING ON GLASSES.

The time life of at which the reading
of ordinary print ct the usual distance
becomes fatiguing is generally between
As and so years of age. To feeble per-
sons, or those in poor health, it may
come earlier, while to the very robust,
and especially to those who have not
severely taxed their eyes, it may be
postponed much longer.
As age advances, the lens of the eye
slowly hardens, and as consequence,
there is a natural failure of the organ
to accommodate itself to near objects.
AS rule, this condition comes on
gradually, and for some time imper-
ceptibly.
The first complaint is that evening
work is somewhat troublesome; the
light often seems dim, and if the work
is brought closer to the eyes, or bet
ter light is provided, the print still
fails to become distinct. One finds it
better to hold the page farther away
than formerly; the print seems pale;
the letters run together; and the eyes
often smart and give pain.
These symptoms are frequently en-
dured for months before their signifi-
canoe is understood and sometimes
the reading distance is pushed as far
away as the arm can conveniently
stretch.
In other cases the person recognizes
the probable nature of his trouble,
but is unwilling to have his age sus-
pected, and so gives up reading.
Although this condition, as has been
said, usually comes on gradually, it
sometimes appears very suddenly, and
even prematurely, as a result of severe
nervous prostration.
To the question whether it is better
to defer the use of glasses as long as
possible the answer is, that as soon as
discomfort arises for lack of them, they
should be adopted: And it is import
ant that they should be fitted to the
eyes by thoroughly competent per-
son.
With far-sighted persons the reading
distance varies greatly-it is between
10 and 20 inches,-and as the occupa-
tion and requirements of the individ-
ual should be the guide as to the
strength of the glasses needed, good
Judgment and considerable experience
are required to determine what the
glasses should be in any given case.
The rule is to wear the weakest
glasses which make work easy at the
accustomed distance, and if proper
glasses are secured as soon as they are
needed, there should ordinarily be no
need of having them changed for at
least two years.
The choice between spectacles and
eyeglasses is to be decided chiefly by
considerations of convenience. But in
either case it is desirable to wear
glasses the area of which is large
enough to prevent the wearer from
seeing the frames.-Youth's Compan-
ion.

"Pu haze some good champagne on

When we'll out at sea, something went
wrong with the engines, and there was
q second delay of some hours A stop al
Long Branch was therefore out Of the
question.
II told you Friday was an unlucky
day." said the general.
1t was 8 O'Clock that evening before
the Seahound stood off from the Twen'
ty-third street wharf.
"I'll have to put you ashore in q
small boat" said Druce. "You won't
mind that, hope. The captain is sc
uncertain about the engines that he
doesn't want to 60 nearer shore. "
"Oh, don t mind in the least! Good
night I've had lovely day."
"I'm glad you enjoyed it. We will
take another trip together some time,
when 1 hope so many things won't hap
pen as happened today"
The general saw that his carriage was
waiting for him, but the waning light
did not permit him to recognize lis son
until he was up OH dry land once more.
The look on tho sons face appalled, the
old man.
"My God, John, what has happened"
"Everything's happened. Where are
the securities that were in the safe?"
"Oh, they're all right" said his IA
ther, feeling of relief coming over
him. Then the thought flashed through
his mind-how did John know they
were not in the safe? Sneed kept tight
rein on his affairs, and no one but him
self knew the combination that would
open the safe.
"How did you know the securities
were not there"'
because I had tho safe blown open
at o'clock today"
"Blown open! For heavens sake
why?'
"Step into the carriage, and I'll tell
YOU OH the way home. The bottom drop
ped out of everything. All the Sneed
stocks went down with run. We sent
a tug after you, but that old devil had
you tight. If could have got at the
bonds, think could have stopped the
run. The situation might have been
saved up to l o'clock, but after that
when the street saw we were doing
nothing, all creation couldn't have stop
ped it. Where arc the bonds?'
