Lycurgus VIII Probably Remain.

"What is to become of Sans
Souci ?" is a question that, ever
since the end of May of this year,
when the lease of Geo. Lycurgus
was up, has perplexed the minds
of many who have been in the
habit of trusting to that place as
a resort where a pleasant after
noon or evening could be spent.
The present position is that Mr..
Lycurgus is simply running the
place until the return of Mr.. F. M.
Hatch, the owner of Sans Souci.
Although a definite course has
not yet been decided on Mr.. Ly-
curgus states that he is very sure
be will obtain another lease and
continue to run the place.
Mr.. Lycurgus is an excellent
man for a place of the kind and
his many patrons would feel sor-
ry to lose him.

Some Kauai Residents Mistake IL for a
Sign of Disease.
A very amusing story comes
from Lihue, Kauai. A resident
of that place, a man occupying
Government Office, was given an
Irish flag to fly from a pole which
he had recently erected. He took
this home and, upon the approach
of the Fourth of July, raised it to
gether with the Hawaiian flag.
Kauai is we'll informed island
but sugar has so infected the
mind, of some of its residents that
nothi lg else seems to remain.
When the resident referred to
went to Nawiliwili he was asked
by people, with alarmed faces,
what disease had taken hold of
members of his household. If it
was contagious, why was he rid,
ing abroad at high noon. The
joke was too good and the resident
calmly replied that his family
were afflicted with Shamrock"
The flag was hauled down after a
short time for fear some of the re.
sident might become panic
strickent.
