The Warrimoo that is expected
here April 16 from Victoria will
bring a large consignment of
Original Book Beer for the An
Choir Saloon. While there has
been Book Beer on the Honolulu
market, it does not begin to com
pare with the consignment that
the Anchor will have on tap after
the arrival of the Warrimoo. The
reason for this is that the Book
that has already arrived is too
fresh. The Book Beer in the
States is made at the first of the
year and kept till May l. The con,
signment to arrive is some of the
original beer and is guaranteed to
be better than any Book ever i'm
ported. Wait for it. 1t will be

How Missionary in China Grssped
mn Opportunity.
In the Picking correspondence
of the Shanghai Mercury there is
an account of a gathering of the
Missionary Association to well
come a returning missionary and
bid bon voyage to several mis-
sionaries leaving for visit to the
United States. Among these was
the Rev. Mr.. Ament, who passed
through Honolulu this week in
the steamer China. The follow
ing ID from the account OF the
meeting:
"The Rev. Mr.. Ament was next
called upon. In his interesting
talk on events which had trans
pired during his 20 years of mis-
sionary labors in China a most
cynical illustration relative to the
various incidents which had
crowned his endeavors with sue
cess was manifested by the fol-
lowing experience. Some years
ago, situated at Pao tingfu, a
native was one day seen roaming
through the streets crying out,
who is the man that can explain
this book referring to bible
which was frantically waved
above his head from time to time.
Mr.. Ament, seizing the opportuni-
ty, volunteered his services: the
result was that the apparent en-
quirer ultimately became de-
vout Christian, likewise his whole
family"

Have You
An Account?

This is a serious question,
one at which some folks take
offense, yet statesmen are under
the necessity of asking it.
Some folks deal near home,
settle infrequently, never in
vestigate to see whether they
pay more than they should and
too often allow their accounts to
60 long over due. If you don't
care what the family expenses
are it's poor way to do if you
want to leave your children in
afiiuent circumstances when
you are gone. Now it is quite
an advantage to have an open
account at a well-known house,
who can execute your order
promptly. Often persons say
they don't want al account and
will pay in few days. But
we cannot keep memoranda of
charges; it isn't safe or good
business. The stock found in
ordinary stores is usually stale,
uninviting and inferior, while
the stock in our store is turned
so frequently and so carefully
watched that it is at all times
fresh. Our stock in trade con-
sists of the luxuries and deli
cacies from every civilized ma
ton. Send for our catalogue

Countess Esterhazy Tells How She
 Got News of a Victory.
 It is now almost 30 years since Gen. Griffin died, and, as you know, it is more than 30 years since the war was over; but these memories of it and of the brave men who fought in it are the dearest that l know. Only the other day a comrade of the general in the peninsular campaign was discuss ing with me our experiences just after Yorktown. There was no news of the fight, and naturally we were very anx- ious. You need not fear that we shall not hear all about it as soon as it is over," I said to one; Capt. Griffin will come to me as soon as it is over" And he did; and we immediately knew that the union soldiers had not disappointed us. You know of Gen. Grif1in's com mand at Galveston; how he stayed with his men there and died of the yellow fever, and how soldierly and noble it was to do it. His grave is finally to be at Arlington. For me that is the most beautiful soldiers resting place.
 Possibly woman feels the sentiment of patriotism more strongly than man does; or if not more strongly, at least more quickly and tenderly. 1t is sad day for our soldiers widows; but possi- ply they find pure and sweet pathos in it that makes them better or tender CT or sweeter; and perhaps because of their sorrows they have been the better able to teach their children the lessons of patriotism that we all love so much. The sentiments of the day are all beau- tiful. One loves the day better for the association of the flags and the flow ers-and the flags and the flowers better for their association with the day. 1t is hard for those who have not partici- pated in the struggle of war and the hardships of the march and the life in camp to realize what the memories of all these things mean to the soldier. It is no wonder that these associations of four years should last for genera tion, or as long as life lasts. It is not strange that those friendships, made under circumstances that tried the souls of the bravest, should last till death. The children of the soldier will do we'll to remember and to keep sa- cred these memories-and to teach them in turn to their children.

The Swimming Season for Young
 America Opens May 80.
Summer Girls In TraininE-A1read, Practicins in TanLs-Swimming school for Young Aristocrats
 Valuable Suggestions.
FCopyright. 1ss7.1

No one knows precisely how May 30 came to be the opening day of the swimming season any more than any one knows definitely how the pointing heavenward of the first two fingers of the left hand became the mystic sign of the Swimming Pool lodge. Surely neither the laws of state, church nor health ever sanctioned the day; and yet the youngster who will not all joy fully and nakedly uncoil his chattering knees from log or spile on May 30 and plunge in undraped splendor into q congealed spring rivulet stands an ex- tremely poor chance, in the eyes of his brothers, of ever growing up to be an honored and useful citizen of this or any other land.
 Like many other fete days which had their origin in the boisterous folly of youth, swimming day has outgrown it's first founders. Nowadays the brothers who are older, and presumably wiser, honor the day, and the colder it is the better the deed.
 This year the day falls upon Sun day, but from the time of our forefa- thers that coincidence has added only deeper charm to it's observance, and not even Father Dunn with all his storm signal threats can mar it. From the number of people who last year went out of their way and their clothes to be in the swim on May 30, it seems quite incredible that only 225 persons In New York lost their lives by drown ing in the course of the 12 months, and of this number 12 did so Intentionally
 This comparatively small number, however, does not show that New York CTS are becoming educated in the art of natation. They always have been. With the wonderful facilities, both nat ural and artificial, it would be amazing if they were not. For the ragged, brown-legged youngster with the ragged brown pup the miles of river front, with it's acres of dull .red brick

THE LATEST FASHIONS.
New Ideas in Materials and Out
 for Little Folks.
To Keep Skirt and shirtwaist To- gether-Lace Shirtwafst Among
 New Importations - Fancy
 Bodices and Wide Collars.

If our great-grandmothers could re turn to earth they would view with hor- TOT the wardrobe of the child of to-day. ton to cut and materiall The child will surely become light-headed and un- fitted for the duties of life.
 The modern mother knows better. She knows thather child will be less self conscious, more susceptible to the good and beautiful, more careful of her cloth ing and herself, more anxious to do right if she is well dressed And so the child's gown is made with as much care as her own.
 Very rarely, however, are expensive materials used. Silk is at present fash ionable, but at it's best can hardly be called suitable to childhood, and will probably soon be cast aside.
 Pique, organdies and cashmeres are considered very smart. Pique is par ticularly the material of the season. It comes in several weights and an end- less variety of colors. Pink, blue, pale green and cream are favorites. The gowns are trimmed with bands Of em- broidery around the hem or inserted in the seams. A founee of embroidery finishes the collar and falls over the sleeves. Few ruffles are used about the bottom of the skirt, except for tall, slim girls.
 Some of the pique gowns have soft white lawn yokes and sleeves. They have the effect of a gimpe, but are in reality part of the gown proper.
 Organdies with simple patterns and of simple coloring are selected for chil. dren's gowns. Gray is the favorite made up over a bright lining.
 Cashmere is the smartest material fo1 a child's party gown and may be made

up with bands of velvet of contrasting shade put on around the skirt.
 The idea of a lace shirt waist seems preposterous, yet such a garment was actually included in a recent English importation. Naturally, it is very ex- pensive- white guipure lace over white satin, closing at the left side un- der narrow frill of lace. The collar is high-standing; the sleeves are of satin, uncovered and are finished at the wrist with a cuff shaped in the usual fashion.
 In one way this waist is indicative of the seasons mode-it is made from sheer material. Aside from that, how ever, there is little to recommend it.
 In the first place, a shirt waist, be it ever so expensive, is always a shirt waist, and cannot be worn, with pro-

1 to an inch wide strap made from { double thickness of the waist material in the center of which three eyelet holes have already been made The strap is sewed down top and bottom, but left loose at the ends. Through these holes piece of steel with three hooks is pushed, the hooks fastening themselves in the eyelets. Three corresponding eyelets are made in the belt of the skirt, into which in turn the hooks are slipped.
 Another method-mueh simpler and involving no outlay of nloney-is to make the double strap, with eyelets, as in the first place. Three hooks on the skirt meet them, and keep the skirt from sagging.
 Only in the case of shirtwaists made of the thin organdies and other sheer materials is the double strap necessary. When the waist is of gingham, or any other material of equal body, three but ton-holed loops made at the waist, to correspond to the hooks on the skirt, are all that is necessary. With small sleeves it seems almost necessary to wear broad collar or neck trimming, for width at the shoulders is quite as desirable as ever. The collars, or, more properly, yoles, are trimmed in qwte a diversity of ways.
 An effective collar, that is shaped like an inserted yoke, with rather long ends in front and straight epaulets over the shoulders, is of brown holland, traced in gold thread. It is worn with a white satin stock A slash in front from the neck has the edges completely concealed by two loops inserted at the neck and two long ribbon eds.
 Another forms circle about the shoulders, edged with tiny plating of lisse. Over the arm parts of sec ond circle are inserted, also edged with lisse.
 Many gowns have yolSes entirely made of founces, of lace or some dainty material. The founces are laid close together, and should not be more than 21a inches in width.
 If your shoulders are square and your neck short, put the founces straight across the back and front of your bod ice, and add width with epaulets that hang down at each side, or with broad top sleeve drapery,

barges. affords a school which cannot be surpassed. Instinct and the ragged brown pup are his swimming masters, and it is not surprising that he is dart ing about like q baby seal, while his Murray Hill brother is still sputtering helplessly and at the rate of almost 50 cents sputter in one of the swell up town natatoriums.
 But the Murray Hill youngster is learning to swim scientifically And in stead of the ragged brown pup for q water companion he has the beautiful young summer girl taking her prelim- mary rehearsals in the bathing suit which later in the season is going to bloom on some sandy shore.
 For the aristocratic youngster and his sister New York has a number of excellent swimming institutions. The water there is tempered for their blue blooded limbs. In winter time it's tenn pcrature is never permitted to go be- low 75 degrees, and the air in the build ing is kept at a temperature of 80.
 Instead of brick barges and canal boats, there are palms and fiereely- painted back curtains of mountain scenery so realistic that the pupil may readily fancy he or she is diving into some limpid mountain pool, instead of into a huge tank, where the manage ment guarantees to change the water every 15 minutes. The water in the tank is from one to six feet deep, be- ing proportioned descent from one end to the other. One side is reserved for beginners, and only the pupils and instructors are permitted there.
 Unlike the ragged brown-legged youngster, the Murray Hill chap and the beautiful summer girl do not take their first swimming lesson in the wa ter. They go first to an instruction room," where an expert teacher ex- plains to them the essential movements of the limbs and the mode of breathing proper to practical swimming.
 After this has been learned and in- wardly digested, the instructor, who is really an aquatic dancing master, puts his pupils through a sort of prelim- mary setting-up drill.
 At the command of "One" the pupil raises her right foot until the heel touches the knee of the left leg, the toe pointing downward and the knee near ly at right angles to the body.
 ''Two!" calls the instructor, and the pupil straightens her right leg again, bringing it to the ground one pace to the left.
 ''Threei" sings the instructor, and the right leg is drawn quickly to the left one and the pupil stands at at tention.
 The same performance is gone through with by the left leg, and then the combined leg movement is per formed. For this the pupil first places her hands on her hips, raises on the ball of the foot, and, opening her knees to the fullest extent, sinks down until the back of the thighs rest upon the calf of the leg. At the command 1.-Two" she springs up and takes long step to the right At three she draws the right leg quickly to the left and again stands at attention
 At this point the instructor explains

march to the sea as drummer and dis patch carrier, and served to the end of the war. He is now clerk of Chi cago hotel.
 Decoration day is not for civil war veterans alone, though that conflict Iovertops all others put together in which America has been engaged. Those few mounds where soldiers of the revolu- tion are known to lie and the others where are buried the veterans of the war of 1872, the Mexican war and the minor wars of the century are covered with flowers every 30th of May, if there is grand army man within reaching distance. Nor is Decoration day GUS tom confined to the United States. There is brigade of our pensioners in foreign lands, and those who fall and are buried there are remembered each year by the survivors. Canada has at least one grand army post. at Hamilton, named from w. w. Cooke, adiutant of the Seventh United States cavalry, who died with Custer.
 America has paid for her proud place N'hAOiS eAC udGiOuS WlIn IA6 lives or nearly 100000 of her sons Counting in deaths resulting from war, the con- federate dead and the slain in all the Indian wars and the similar conflicts, the total, it is believed. will swell close to a round million.
 That the civil was the bloodiest and costliest of modern wars is evident from comparison in figures. The Cri- mean war, it has been stated, used up $2,o00,000, 900 and 750,00o lives. But our rebellion record, both sides. exceeded that When this is said, the place in history of the Russo-Tur11ish war; with $125,000,0o0 and 25o,o0O lives, and the Franco=Prussian war, with $400,000,0 ,00 and 196,000 lives, is evident.
 When comparison is made of battles in the civil war and in foreign wars, the European figures are the largest. The north lost in killed iii battle 67, ,000 men. But at Leipsic in 1913 the slain on both sides is put at 80,600, and at Sadowa in 1866 50,00o Austrians and Prussians were killed. At Gettysburg the north and the south lost in killed, wounded, captured and missing 3,449. But for four years the struggle in

erans of the war living, and, unless the grand army grows by the addition of veterans not now members of it, it's strength 23 years from now will not be more than 14o,000 In 1926, at the 150th celebration of Independence day, this vast country will see only 100000 of those who fought to make it free,
 Between the youngest and the oldest veteran is gap which two generations could hardly fill. The honor of being the boy drummer is disputed by at least two claimants, but the yeneration due to age is yielded to one man only of all the millions that fought for the union. Born before the constitution was adopted, John Haynes was "A years old and steamboat engineer on the Mississippi when the war began. That being the business he knew best, he entered the federal service as engi- neer of gunboat. He was native of the Cumberland mountain region of Tennessee, and fought with Jackson at New Orleans.
 Capt. Haynes is an inmate of the Memorial home at St. Louis, and is proud of his years, his service for his country and his physical powers. He chewed tobacco for 70 years, and quit it five years ago because it wasn't nice. He has drunk liquor in moderation for 90 years, and never paid any attention to his diet. At no years of age he has thick head of white hair and a long white beard. He married at the age of 50, and seems good for many years yet.
 At the other extreme of life is Maj. John Clem, an Ohio boy, whose birth day was August 13, 1851. He figures in the Army Register, because he is now quartermaster in the regulars, and that record says he enlisted as musician in the Twenty Michigan infantry on May l, 1863. But in reality he took part in the battle of Shiloh in April, 1862, with the Third Ohio. He was not enlisted then because of his age. Boy, even child that he was, he performed deed at Chickamauga that won him pro- motion and commendation. He was blazing away with his little rife, which was mans weapon shortened for his use. when a confederate officer rode up to him yelling: Surrender, you d. little Yanki" Glenn promptly shot the officer from his horse, but the rush of tine Johnnies made Clen prisoner He managed to escape, and was made sergeant at once. In 1871 President Grant. who found him at Shiloh beat ing the long roll, appointed him to the regular army.
 There was another little drummer boy in the union army, and he was Gllbert Van Zandt. Born December 20, 1851, he was only few months older than Glenn. Van Zant enlisted on Au- gust 6, 1862, in the Seventy-ninth Ohio lnfantry he, too. was a native of on'o. He went through shermans
