Commenting on the appearing
at large in Y okohana, occasional
ly, OF begging lepers, the Japan
Advertiser seriously gets off this
information:
There is, in Honolulu, a ste nd
ing reward Of, we believe, five
Thousand dollsrs, offered for the
recapture of auy escaped "coion-
lst' of Molokai. And yet, it is said =,
that the reward is never claimed;
not because it could not frequent.
ly be earn ed, but because the mere
touching by a non-leper of the
sick man would bring about the
captor's Punishment to the Silent
Colony"
1t is needless to say, FOR home
reading, that neither the state
ment as of facts nor the Inference
regarding the touching of an I'M
fortunate has particle of found
alton. There is no such reward as
that mentioned, and permitted
visitors to MoJOkai are not even |
cautioned against shaking hands
with the sick folk there. Although |
the prevailing opinion is that the
disease is contagious, it is gener-
ally believed not so in the degree
OF what may be called epidemic
maiadies. Otherwise, this whole
group would many years ago have
been one laz4retto. As the fact
stands, however, there are many
pc ople born and raised in the isl
anis who have never knowingly
set eyes upon a leper.

efforts for peace in the Spanish
capital at the eleventh hour
There was common talk there Of
arbitration, seemingly almost an
undertone OF panic. The Queen
Regent, whose strength Of mind
has ayailed much for Spain in
previous crises, had practically
taken matters out OF the hands Of
her own Ministers aud, through
the INTERPRETATION of the German
and Austrian Ambassadors, was
dealing directly with the
United States Minister. The
information is all the more
important from the fact that.Min
lister Woodford had, only few
days previously, urgently request
ed his Governmental Washington

final outcome Of his communica
tons with the Madrid authorities

med up in the statement that

NOT CHARLEY,s FAULT.
He Did Not Telephone That the Milo
wern Was In Sight.


wera Was i'm Sight.
Charles Peterson, the lookout
at the Diamond Head station,
claims that the newspapers have
done him an injustice in saying
that he was responsible for tele-
phoning that the Miowera was off
Diamond Head on Tuesday mig hit.
He claims that he telephoned to
the Central Office, not only once
hut several times, that it was the
Waisleale, and that he should not
be blamed for the calelessness of
the operators.
incidentally, Mr.. Peterson says
his telephone is no good and never
has been in proper shape since
he has had it. In the last few
years he has had about
four different instruments but
they have always been old, worth
less ones thrown out by some
downtown establishment. Com.
plants have been made by him to
the various superintendents, and
especially of late to Mr.. Cassidy,
and the only satisfaction he re-
ceived was to be told he was in
good luck to get any telephone at
all, as the comDaDV receiyad
nothing for maintaining the line
to Diamond Head.
This morning Charley sighted
the Aloha at daylight but was I'M
able to get any connection with
the central Office, and was forced
at z o'clock to walk to Mr.. Nc
Donald's house to report her
through another telephone.

Grover Cleveland is terrible in
retirement. W. Il. Hearst, owner
of the San Francisco Examiner
and the New York Journal, wrote,
in tie name of the journal, ask o
ing him to 90 on a national com

by popular subscription, to the
victims of the Maine disaster. The
letter gave raft of distinguished
names and enumerated host of
State governors who had already

FAITH IN HUMANITY.

EDITOR EVENING BULLETIN
Many ofyour readers, even of those
not holding your political views,
will wonder what could be the
motive instigating the letter sign
ed Taxpayer published in your
issue of this date, but as it is
risky work Judging of motives, for
we very often deceive ourselves,
or try to do SO, even when reckon
ing wit our own thoughts, so !
will not attempt an analysis of
your correspondents mental
leanings. l will, however, with
your permission, say, that a large
faith in Humanity appears to be
quite compatible with what may
be thought prudent and necessary
precautions for the preservation
of the peace, and the guarding the
integrity of any mans person
or home. Those occupying
prominent positions, even in
small communities, are liable to
annoyances ard insult from un.
thinking, and oft times weak
minded persons, and L would sug
gest that those who are politically
opposed to the men here in con
troll, should be the very first to
realize the feet, and strenuously
support any reasonable and we'll
meant efforts to prevent a breach
OF the peace, breach that could
only rebound to the discontinue
of those who might be supposed
to ins1igate, or wish it.
Let me, sir, conclude by saying,
whatever mag be the Presidents
faith III Humanity, even to the ex
tent OF being utterly regardless of
possibilities, those close to him,
and has advisers, may feel that
Shakespeare words are true: that
Virtue itselftIrns vice, being misap-
piled,
And vice sometimes by action digni-
fed
Possibly many will understand
this communication is written in
he interests of taxpayers and fair
play. l say possibly, for,
we walk in world where no man
reads
The riddle oftidngs that are,
rom a tiny fern in the valleys heart,
To the light Of the largest star.
let we know that the pressure OF life is |
hard
and the sileslce Of Death is deep,
md we fall and rise on the tangled way
That leads to the gate Of Sleep.
We know that the problems OF Sin and
Pain,
And the passions that lead to crime,
re mysteries locked from age to age
In the awful vault Of Time
'et we lift our weary feet and strive
Through the mire and mist 10 grope,
nd find lodge on the mount OF Faith
In the morning land Of Hope"

CHRISTMAS AT KENO.
How Hard Luck Hankins' Tree Was
Decorated.


"Speakin of Christmas trees, 4" said
Cyclone Murphy as he snuffed candle
on the topmost twig of the Keno Guloh
Sunday school tree with his trusty six
shooter and then nipped remonstrance
In the bud by getting the drop on the
Sunday school superintendent "re-
minds me of a galoot named Hard Luck
Hankins, who lived up on Tenderfoot
ridge and who was the biggest kicker
that over kicked. This yere Hard Luck
Hanains lived in a cabin on top Of the
ridge and p'tended or how he was a
miner, but he didn't never seem to mine
anything and was ginerally regarded ez
feller without visible means of sup
port. Some folks said he was a road
agent and others opined ez how boss
stealth might be the mine he was
workin.
1.-The only thing Keno Gulch ever
really knowed him TO be doin was pat
tin up powerful kick about one thing
or another. He alters had some hard
luck story to tell, and that was why
folks called him Hard Luck Hankins.
There wasn't decent lookin tree
on top of the hull ridge except one, and
that tree was mighty handsome pine
that stood right in front of Hard Luck
Hankins' shanty. She's my old Christ
mas tree, Hankins would growl every
time Christmas come around. but, dern
her ole hide, Sanity Claws don't never
hang nothin on her fer me-.
THAT was Cjes' Hard Luck's pesky
and onery way-allers ISickin about
somethin-and that handsome tree new
er havin anything hangin on it fer him
seemed to orile him specially every year.
What's the use havin a blame Christ
mas tree that never don't have nothin
hangin on to it?' he'd growl. Have
dern good notion to cut her down.
"This went on ytar after year, and
the boys KEEP a-wonderin and avon
derin how Hard Luck got livin. One
Christmas eve they found out, and it
put an end To Hard Lucks quarrel with
his big pine Christmas tree
Fer the very first Christmas sence
Hard Luck had been livin in Keno there
was somethin hangin on his Christmas
tree.
What was iti" repeated Cyclone
Murphy as he snuffed another candle.
why, it was old Hard Luck Hankins
hissolf, and he s-kickin-ez-usual
and kickin with both feet. SELECTED.

Christina. Table Decoration.

Avery pretty decoration for the table
at the Christmas dinner is tiny Christ
mas tree. Candied fruits and gilded
and silvered wainuts make it bright
and seasonable, while little frosting
with the powder that cones for the pur-
pose makes it beautiful object under
the glitter of the lights. The tree will
be trimmed and prepared for you by
any florist and should be planted in a
fancy low vase or dish. The picturesque
dwarf evergreens that come from Japan
are most effective when used in this
way, and yet they are such costly treas.
ures that few who own them are will
ing to make table decorations of them.

The kissing Rail-.

"A green ball To suspend over the
Christmas dinner table is made by fas-
tening two keg hoops together, one with
in the other, turning each way like an
open globe. Twine princess pine around
each hoop and put in sprigs of holly
here and there. This indeed is similar
to the old "kiss&g bunch, which is
seen in many old fashioned homes in
England. Two wooden hoops, one pass
ing through the other, deoked with ever
greens, in the center of which is hung
a crown" Of rosy apples and sprig
of mistletoe. Beneath it there are much
kissing and romping and the carol
singers stand beneath IL and sing their

SAxONY SANTA CLAUS
Hans Rupert Walks All The Way
From Russia.
A Great, GaIIast Figure, With Top Bools
and Mighty Pack.

Hans Rupert is the name or TN,
Santa Claus Of Saxony given by the
simple, pious peasantry. Hans Rup
pert will arrive tonightl" the children
OF Saxony cry all along the dear, dark
ening twilight of Christmas eve, as they
fatten their little Saxon noses against
the cottage window panes, peering out
along the winter roads for "our Hans
Rupert. !" Hans Rupert is coming
tonight" say the simple hearted grown
mp folk to one another, a people who
have one evening in the winter twilight
OF their hard, stern lives when il will
be all glow and glamour and froth of
fun.
Hans Rupert comes from Russia,
from its silent mysteries of steppe
and OF SHOWS. But he is not a
Slav. Hans Rupert is not the ira
ditional Santa CLAUS Of the Teuton
land--a jolly old man with curly beard
and winking smile. "Hans Rupert is
tall, brawny, peasant looking fell
low." say the good Saxony folk with a
sublime earnestness as if they had seen
him. Hans Rupert has muscles minted
from their own brave life of gray toll.
Hans Rupert walks all the way from
sfar, from the Asiatic Russland and, at
every step he takes toward the Caucasus
chain, mt every stride up and up, still
up the ledges Of its rock and bluff and
brae, across its brawling streams, now
down ON the other side of its stern
shoulder shadowed in the star calm. at
