In that time he might establish living

the paying law business comes from the

am sorry to say that, under present
conditions, there is little chance here for
unskilled labor. The competition of the
Hawaiian, japanese, Chinese and Portu-
guese unskilled labor must be met, and
Kansas is a far better place for such of
our good citizens as have no special call
ing or trade. 1t may be that conditions
will change within a couple of years, and
now that no more Chinese can enter Ha-
wall and contract labor must cease, an
opportunity for unsxilled hands may open.
1 certainly hope so, for it is such men
every good country ought to have.
Any man with money can now make
money in Hawaii. That is a certainty.
If able to do so, no man should make
the change without first visiting the coun-
try and seeing for himself just how the
ground lays.
Communications asking for information
should be addressed to the Minister of
Interior, Honolulu where they will re-
ceive prompt attention.
Letter postage to Hawaii is five cents,
and will continue to be until the United
States makes other provision.

THEY CAN'T STOP.
Successful Life Insurance Companies
Must Go on Forever.

Milwaukee, Wis, Sept. 1.-THE sec
ond days session of the National AS
ISOLATION of Insurance Commissioners
was devoted to the deliveries of ad-
dresses, those at the morning session
being by Hon. Emery McClintOck, of
New York, actuary of the Mutual Life
company on General plans, reserves
and investments" and Jacob L. Greene,
of Hartford, Conn, on Special fea-
lures, dividends, surrender values, ETC.,
with a few eloquent remarks by Judge
w S. Nichols, of New York. Mr.. Nc
Clintock in his address said the subject
given him was exceedingly broad, en-
bracing in fact, the entire insurance
field. In part he said mo life in
surance company has ever yet success
fully wound up it's business affairs and
the successful life insurance must go on
forever. To succeed the company must
present an attractive plan of opera
ton" He said the cooperative plan was
unquestionabIy secure, in his opinion,
because it can not fail to meet its OBJ
legations, although they are not as
rule very large. These societies usual
ly come to an end because they fail to
present attractive features; old mem
bers become tired of paying to keep up
and new members are hard to get be-
cause of the lack of attractive features.
At the opening of this mornings ses-
sion, kilograms were read from Cover
nor Pingree of Michigan, Mr.. Maybury
of the Business Mems league and the

Detroit, Mich, Sept. 15.-tDo you
think Gen. Miles is a fool?" The ques-

was asked what foundation there was
for a dispatch from Washington that
Gen. Miles had on his own authority
ordered the immediate breaking up of
Camp Nikoff.
The dispatch also stated that a te1e-
gram was sent to Gen. Miles saying
that his order was contrary to that of
Secretary Alger, whereat Gen. Miles
is alleged to have replied: Never
mind what Alger says; I am in COM

of the Sons of Veterans

Omaha, Sept. 14-Detroit was this
morning selected by the Sons of Veter-
ans as the place for holding next years
annual encampment. The city won af-
ter hard fight in which its principal
opponent was Denver. The other bus

impressive than the one now in use,
was adopted. It provides for only one
degree instead of three. Attempts to
restrict membership to the male de-
scendants of those who saw actual ser
vice in the civil war was voted down
and the same action was taken on
proposition to raise the muster fee from

voring the continuance of military tao

The notices were posted Saturday night
They were in red ink and there was
a rough sketch of a skull and crossbones

to leave the neighborhood. These squat

its supply of vegetables. but in addition
to this cause for the demand for their re-

orgies of a most degraded description.

of men and women who had a complete

rather that they can stand it as well as
they do.
But a poor weak woman" as she is

Every woman ought to know that she

The most perfect remedy ever devised for
weak and delicate women is DR. Pierce's

today was added to the Denton case,
which had its beginning in the chancery
court Friday by the filing of a bill by
James w. Denton to enjoin a young
man, Thomas Barnes, from visiting his
daughter. Mrs. Mary Virginia Denton
some time ago entered suit in the chan
Gerry court for divorce from James w
Denton, and she was granted an in
junction restraining her husband from
coming around her house and interior
ing with her children. Today Mrs. Den
ton filed a petition in this old divorce
suit, asking that this injunction be re-
vived. She states in this that after the
original injunction had been granted
Denton came to her with tears and
promised that if allowed to return he
would behave himself as a respectable
husband and father should. Upon these
conditions he was forgiven, but now a
revival of the injunction is asked, as
the defendant, so Mrs. Denton claims.
has become Objectionable to her and
her children. This petition grows out
of the fling of the bill Friday in the
