pictures, and, second, here all the leaders of
the grande monde gather to show their new
gowns and their spring garments. Here is
the fashion of the season set, for 1t would
be rank heresy to wear any other style
than those worn here this day.
do not mean to say that everybody will
exactly copy all the garments, but all the
salient points will be adopted, all the
new ideas will be seized at once by every
body, and in a few days they viii be seen
everywhere.
The ladies who lead the fashion in Paris
are few now, for many of them were burn
ed in that cruel fire. but the few left will
hold to their privilege still closer. No one
but the lady and her dressmaker is ever in
the secret of what is TO be worn by each
on this memorable occasion, and crowds
of women throng the galleries all day, so
that the pictures on the walls have scant
notice, while the living, moving pictures
are closely scanned.
We have no such function as "vernis

able women the horse show, dog show and
coaching parties afford the necessary as

In Spite Of Recently Mounted Modern

TO Surrender to One Of Our Big Cruisers.
The Chief Ports.
The Canary islands, being Spanish pos
sessions, naturally interest us Just now
We may own them some fine day in the
not distant future.
This little group, lying around loose
in the Atlantic less than 100 miles west
Of Africa, comprises the oldest of
Spain's colonial possessions The is
lands are absolutely antique as far as
history goes. Away back in the time of
Herodotus they were referred to as
"the Fortunate isles, and the old We
netian geographers designated them as
the beginning of the traditional conti-
nent of Atlantis
They are beautiful, summery islands
far to fine to be monopolized longer by
such third rate, back number nation
as Spain. In American hands the Ca.
naries would be made popular winter
resort, an important coaling station and
a junketing place for congressional COM
mittees.
The Canary group comprises the is
lands Of Tenerife, Grand, Canary, Pal
ma, Lanzarote, Fuerteventura, Gomera
and Ferro, with an area of 2, 800 square
miles, little less than that of the state
Of Connecticut, having a population Of
291, 900.
Politically considered, the islands,
for administration purposes, form
province of Spain, have representative
in the cortes and therefore share in
the government. Their affairs are, how
ever, administered by a captain general
appointed by the crown.
There are two reasons why the Ca
naries have always been quiet The first
is the native population has nothing
whatever to say in local affairs and is
kept by the ,ominant element in igno.
rance so der , as to consider the existing
state Of affairs a natural order which /.
is vain to attempt to change The
Guanches or Canary natives, are also
outnumbered by the Spanish element in
such degree that rebellion would b.
hopeless, and as no arms or munitions
of any kind are permitted to the island
ers their status is hardly better than
that Of horses or cattle. The other rea-
son is there is little to enrich Spanish
official, and consequently Spanish Off

ferent. Recent developments prove that
the city regiments have the poorest
cooks and the country regiments the
best This is because the former are
made up as regiments and then divided
into companies while the country regi-
ments are made mp by collecting com.
panies from various towns and villages.
When the boys from the city were mus
tered in, it was largely a matter of luck
If in every company could be found a
competent man for cook. If not, an in
competent one was pressed into service
The boys from the towns and villages,
however took good care that a first
class cook went along with them. In
some cases he was a local caterer or res
taurateur and generally each of the
men Of the company agreed TO chip in
90 cents or so a month to make it worth
his while. know Of at least three COM
panies from as many different states
which have secured first class cooks in
this way. No matter what conditions
those companies encounter they will be
sure that such ratiOus as the commits

will be properly prepared As a result
there will be less grumbling, fewer men
on the sick list and fuller ranks when
the boys come home.
Each company cook enlists as such.
He is not expected 70 do any other duty
In fact, if he succeeds in preparing
three meals a day for from 70 to So
men, he will be kept as busy as any pa
triot could reasonably wish to be. OF
course he is not compelled to do all the
work himself From two to three men

MISS STURGEON
DIED AT HOME.
Sad NewsIof a Young Lady Resi-.
dent OF Honolulu.

tNsw Whatcom, Wash, Friday, July
~
The unexpected death of Miss Annie
Sturgeon at Seattle yesterday morning
was great shock to the ent.re COM
munity in which she was so well and
tayorably known. She was the eldest
daughter OF Mr.. and Mrs. Il. Sturgeon
OF this city, and had been IN Honolulu
Tor the last three years engaged as
the senographer for the banking firm
OF Bishop Co., of that city. For some
time before going to the Hawaiian Is
lands she was in the dry goods house
of Stockton Bros. here.
Some months ago she was told by
physicians that she was afflicted with
a growing tumor and that unless this
was removed she could not expect to
live long. Mr.. S. NJ. Damon, the man
ager OF the bank, who is also the imam
cier for the Hawaiian Government, ad-
Vised her TO come home and have an
operation performed and TO that end
gave her leave of absence for three
months, continuing her salary while
absent, thus showing the high esteem
in which she was held by her employ
er. She arrived home about two
months ago and to a casual observer
appeared to be in perfect health and
enjoyment OF life, but she was not.
Last week she went with her mother
10 Seattle to undergo the operation,
and on last Saturday it was apparently
successfully performed and she seemed

u. s. Attorney General Examining
Law.Registers-The Precedents.
Probable Ruling.

NEW YORK, July IA special tC
the Sun from Washington says: At
torney General Griggs, at the Request
OF Secretary Gage, Is examining the
law with view to advising the Treas.
ury Department whether or not under
the Newlands' resolution, annexIhg
Hawaii to the United States, vessels
sailing under the flag of that Republic
are entitled, without additional legis-
lation, to fly the flag OF the United
States and receive American registers,
and also whether or not commerce be-
tween the Islands and the United States
is coastwise traffic, to be engaged in
only by vessels under our flag.
Legislative precedents answer the
first question in the negative. After
the purchase of Louisiana in 1893, Con
gress provided by enactment for the
issue of American registers to vessels
owned by citizens of the newly ac-
quired territory, and in 1868, the year
after the purchase of Alaska, law was
passed authorizing the Secretary OF
the Treasury to grant registers to yes
sells owned by citizens of the new cCun-
try.
Upon the question of traffic between
Hawaii and the United States there is
decision by the Supreme Court TO
the effect that where a country came
under the jurisdiction of the United
States by purchase, the ports thereof
remained foreign ports until they were
declared to be domestic by act of Con-
gress.
Although Hawaii did not come in by
purchase, it is believed by the Treas
ury officials that the Attorney Genera!
will hold that the ports of the Islands
at present, at least, are foreign ports,
and that commerce between them ana
the United States is open to the YES
sells of all nations.

A SENATOR'S VIEWS
u. s. to Have Nominal Possession
OF Spain's Colonies.

WASHINGTON, July q - Senator
Warren of Wyoming has not left
Washington and is daily visitor at
the White House and War and Navy
Departments. He is Of the opinion
that there is no promise of immediate
peace. He said
The United States will not offer
terms until it has nominal. II not real
possession Of all the Spanish dependen-
cies. We have the island of Cuba
practically under control. We have the
Ladrones and Philippines, and the ex-
petition now preparing and partly un-
der way from San Francisco will take
the Carolines. 1t is not impossible
that Porto Rico will be ours before
the week is ended and Watson will ac-
count for the Canaries, or at least will
get foothold. Obviously, as one Of
our conditions will be the liberating Of
all these colonies from Spanish rule,
It Is better that We have constructive
possession, at least, of all of them, as
we will have real control Of the most.
We can better dictate terms when the
actual power of disposition is in our
hands. That is why the expeditions
are Fastening.
