The "Gallery Gods I"

The 'frequenters of the lofty gal
lery of any theater have a good deal
to do with the making or marring
OF any new play. Yet that is not
how they acquire their title of
"gods." AS a matter OF fact, the
origin OF the expression is this:
Years ago Drury Lane theater had
its ceiling painted to resemble a
blue sky with clouds, among which
white Cupids we're flying in every
direction. This ceiling extended
over the gallery, whose occupants
thus appeared to be very near
heaven. Hence the expression arose
of gallery gods."-London Answers

ANOTHER VICTIM.

Peter Camarinos is dead and once
more a victim OF death has been
claimed by the men who delight
in running the country of the Ha-
waiians and in driving their politi-
cal opponents to disaster and grief.
Peter g. Camarinos was born in
Sparta 81 years ago. His brother,
Mr.. D. G.. Camarinos who was the
representative OF Greece in Califor-
MIA agreed to receive his younger
brother in California in 1887. Peter
responded to the invitation and
after working at the large CANA
rinos business in San Francisco he
was sent to Honolulu where he
opened branch store which at all
times proved a success.
Without the slightest reason he
was thrown into Jail and Submitted
to the indignities which have caused
the death OF many prominent for
eigners who Jared equally with poor
Camarinos.
Business jealousy caused his i'm
prisonment and his life has paid for
the rascality of his opponents and
their malicious motives.
A mother, we'll up in the eighties
is now crying over the loss of son.
Mr.. D. G.. Camarnos who invited
his younger brother to leave home
is heart broken over the loss OF the
young relative who would have met
a bright future if he had not en-
countered an incident which event
aally proved calamity to him.
Camarinos is dead, and again do
the shadows Of those killed by Dole
and Smith arise and point their
ghastly fingers towards tho men who
without reason and sense, imprison-
ed, starved and ruined the people
who simply differed in opinion from
them.

A local bicyclist, an absent minded
man, has ridden on sidewalks the past
few seasons in this city so much, by
his own confession, that now, since the
reform has taken place, and the city
regulations in this respect have been
enforced, he often finds himself seized
with a feeling of guilt when walking on
the sidewalk, forgetting fer the mo-
ment that he is not on his wheel, and
starts to get off into the street. The
city marshal says that people have
substituted remarks of satisfaction for
those of complaint in regard to the bt-
cyclers, and he anticipates little
more trouble as they have generally
shown a disposition, since the recent
announcement that the law would be
enforced, to keep on the streets.
