CAMEL'S MILK WILL FLOW.
LOCAL sHRINERS PREPARING FOR
THE IMPERIAL COUNCIL.
E. F. Allen, of This City, VIII BE
Elected Imperial P~otentate at
Dallas I'm June-TwO Important
Masonic Events This Week.

Kansas City ShrinerS are already max
ing preparations for the meeting of the
Imperial council or national gathering of
the Shriners in Dallas next June. Though
the event is three months ahead. the work
of arranging for the meeting has already
begun. Last week a committee of prom
fnent Shriners from this city went to Dali
las and completed all the details Of ar
ranging for the proper care OF the dele
gates from Kansas City.
This meeting will be Of more tlan usual
interest to Kansas City Masons, from the
fact that in all probability Z. F. Allen, OF
this city. formerly illustrious potentate OF
Ararat temple, will be invested with the
highest honors of the order in this coun-
try. by being elected imperial potentate.
He is next in line to the successor, ana
nothing but a most radical and impropapie
departure from the usages OF the order
will prevent MIR. Aliens election. He has
been honored with the highest offices in
the gift Of not only Kansas City but Mis-
souri, Masons, and bis election to the i'm
perial fez OF the Ancient Arabic 1oraer;
States, will not make the end of his career
in the fraternity.
Kansas City Shriners are making great
preparations TO entertain the hundreds OF
Shriners from all parts of the country
who will pass through the city on their
way to Dallas. There Is hardly a prom
inent Shriner in the vest who has not
tasted the camel's milk, and broken bread
beneath the ~hospitable roof of Ararat tenn
pie. Men from beyond the desert. still
weary with the heat of the desert, and yet
sore from the 'bucking' of the camel.
have crossed the generous Intel Of Ararat
temple, and. dropping the tent flap be-
hind them, have tasted the salt and drunk
the leben of the men whose tent doors
are ever open, and in whose guest-bond
IL is written that all who wear the feZ
are as brethren of one blood.
Kansas City is a threshold which all
travellers from the North and West must
cross to reach the oasis of Dallas, and
hundreds of Shriners will s.op here during
tho week preceding the meeting at Dallas.
In the meantime. two events OF more
than ordinary interest in Masonic circles
will take place in Kansas City this week.
A convention of Scottish Rite Masons
will be held at the Masonic cathedral. New
Ridge building. this week. beginning next
Tuesday. and lasting till Thursday. fnclu-
sive. 4 large class is expected. and all
the degrees from the fourth to the thirty
second will be conferred.
Ararat temple. Mobiles Of the Mystic
Shrine. will have a special meeting next
Saturday night. when a large number OF
travellers will tread the hot sands and
later rest beneath the palms of the oasis
where they will be refreshed with a col
lation OF "jerked" dates and camels' milk.

RISES TO EXPLAIN.
TELLS ALL ABOUT THE HOT SPELL
OF FRIDAY.
Promises . Cessation of Rain and
Fair Weather for To-day-Maxi-
mum Yesterday Was 81 De-
grees, Minimum AZ.

"what made it so hot, Friday" re-
peated Weather Observer Connor, yester-
day, to about the hundredth question Of the
sort put to him since the people had re-
covered sufficiently from the sultry,
sticky afternoon and evening of the 18th
to ask questions. well, that isn't SO easy
to explain There Is this much about it.
however. we are getting all our weather
about ten days ahead of time this year
Without any sunshine at all, to speak OF.
Friday furnished our hottest weather so
far; in fact, the highest temperatures came
in the night after the sun had been down
for three hours. Such a night properly
belongs in April and many Of the days
we had in February would have looked a
great deal less out Of place in March. The
result of this is seen in the advanced condi-
ton of vegetation everywhere.
"A partial explanation Of the warm
weather is found in the fact that we got
1t from the South Friday afternoon, the
low pressure center. that passed over us
along in the evening some time, was down

rid of and it brooded over us for a day
without being distured. The air that was
coming in and slowly equalizing the atmo-
there was no attainment Of the heat on that
score. A good deal of the heat, also, was
what Is called dynamic heat, caused partly
by the friction Of the descending currents
of air. always found about the edge of a
low pressure area Add to this the item that
the atmosphere was in the best possible
condition for retaining all the heat derived
from whatever source and you can UNDER
stand partly at least why it was SO hot
To-day, and in the thunder storm early
this morning we see the ragged edge Of
our big low and, while we can't tell what
other Influences may interfere. the indi-
cations are that we will ave our usual fair

COLD STORAGE OF APPLES.
HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY DECLARES
1T IS A FAILURE.
Exhaustive Experiments Show the
Fruit Spells Within Two Days
After Being Taken Out
Dry Storage Is Better.

Cold storage of apples was declared .
failure by the forty members of the Mis-
souri, Valley Horticultural Society at its
meeting at the Coates House yesterday.
This conclusion was reached after the
most careful test of the storage for three
years and the members who have large
stocks of apples in storage this winter will
try something else for the coming season.
They stated yesterday that apples appar-
emily sound and all right in the storage
rooms would decay in two days SO as to
be unfit for first-class trade when taken
out. and that, despite the best they could
do. they were cetain to meet loss in their
crops. They felt that apples ought to last
at least two weeks after being taken out
Of storage and any system was a failure
that had the opposite effect.
They say their experiment with dry stor-
age in large cellars show that apples will
weeks with ease when taken out. They
said the present system Of cold storage was
uncertain, apparently not well understood
and the results quite unsatisfactory all
round.
Colonel j.. c. Evans. who mas made an
exhaustive investigation of the present
condition of stone fruits, filed. his report
saying that not in many years had the
outlook been so favorable for an immense
crop. He had not been able to get full
reports from Iowa and Nebraska and said
the recent storm there might nave done
damage, but through the territory about
Kansas City and south the showing was
very fine.
Captain E. P. Diehl. of olathe. presented
the society with a historic gavel made
from the trunk Of an apple tree that was
planted at Usage Mission in 1851 by the
frontier missionary, Rev. Mr.. Thomas
Johnson. 1t was an English Golden Rus
set and for many years produced a fine
lot of fruit each year. The handle Is
made from a catalpa tree that was planted
twe nty years at Olathe by Captain
Diehl. He had three of the gavels made.
One he gave to the State Historical Asso-
other he retained as a souvenir.
Mr.. ]. H. Durkee read a paper on
Pears" in which he gave the varieties
that were best adapted to the climate
here. Mr.. A. Chandler told of the best
methods for ground planting.

of Interest to Piano and Organ
Buyers.

The Kansas City Piano Company. of 121a
and 1215 Main street. is now a branch Of
the New England Piano Company. of Bos-
ton. Mass, the largest piano producing
factory in the world, making the entire
piano. Large shipments of New England
Pianos have recently been made from Bos-
ton. and in order to make room for them
it has been decided by the manager, Mr..
George F. A. Illidge. to dispose of all sec
ond-hand as well as new stock now in the
wareroom at prices beyond the possibility
ments. which include New England, Hazel
ton, Fischer. Gilbert and other makes Of
Upright and Grand pianos. Squares are
offered for from SIS up, for cash, and or
gans from SIS up. Thus an opportunity is
offered to purchase a piano or an organ at
hgures never before known in Kansas City.
As the New England Piano Company man
ufactures its own pianos. it has no middle
mans profit to pay. and thus can offer a
high grade piano at a lower price than
cana dealer who has to purchase from
the manufacturer.

Mr.. o. B. Stanton, proprietor Of the Ho-

blunder through which he was arrested last
night on a warrant sworn out by the city
attorney. charging him with failing to pay
his hotel license. The warrant was served
in the presence of a number of guests of

is JUDGE DEAN Qualified?
Metropolitan Street Railway Compa-
ny Contends His Selection as Spe-
ciaI Judge Was Illegal.

Many damage suits filed against the
Metropolitan street railway were docketed
for the March term of the circuit court at
Independence. Yesterday the attorneys for
the Metropolitan company presented a mo-
ton attacking the legality of the selection
Of o. II. Dean as special judge for the
term, claiming there was no authority for
his selection and that Judges Slower. Gates
and Scarritt were legally constituted to
try all cases. An allegation was made that
under the circumstances the term was not
legally opened and that, therefore, the term
hal expired. Among the lawyers yester-
day it was the general opinion that the
motion of the Metropolitan attorneys could
only affect cases specified in the motion and
that in cases already tried where the point
of jurisdiction was not raised. or cases to
be tried where the same point Is not raised,
the trials and findings would hold.

AMERICAN PARTY MEMORIAL

1t is fair to suppose that F. j.
Lowrey's public letter is sort of a
minority report of the Central
Committee of the American Union
party. While we have not the
honor of being the mouth piece of
the American Union party, we
must confess to the belief that
Mr.. Lowrey has not made good
his practical claim that the action
Of the committee was "irregular."
In the fret place, the Central
Committee was elected, not sp-
pointed, and the number of years
chat have elaped since that cleo
Gon is just one. True the Central
Committee was not elected for
life, but unless new order of
politics entirely unAmerican is to
be instituted in Hawaii, this com,
mittee is looked upon as having
charge of the affairs of the party
until the successors Of it's present
membership are appointed. 1.-THE

THE ADVERTISER INSULT.

The BULLETIN never has saiC
and never has intimated that tb,
Republican party made mistake
in giving the negroes of thu
United States a vote. The Bull
LRTIN believes that every singl,
individual man who gives true
allegiance to the United States
should be given voting voice in
the affairs of the country. The
BULLETIN does main tain that it is
an insult to the Hawaiian race to
compare it with the African race
Of the United States, which, taken
as a whole, represents one of the
lowest orders of citizenship found
in our country. The negroes are
good fighters; they showed that in
the CIVIL war as well as at santi-
ago. Uuder the influence of free
schools the negroes are advancing
steadily. Able men have risen
from among the negroes and their
1bility has been duely recognized.
The fact still remains that, as a
race, the Hawaiians represent a
higher degree Of civilization THAI
has ever been reached by the
American negroes or is likely to
be reached in the next fifty years.
Compare the records of crime,
compare the intelligence of the
Two races. Is the negro race of
the South one which can honestly
be held up for old men or young
TO emulate? Is the negro race
generally represented in the purest
homes and the general social life
Of the United StatesH In seeking
TO uplift humanity should men be
directed to the lower or the
higher races?
Furthermore, the Advertiser
isn't so green that it does not
know that comparisons between
Che negro and the Hawaiian tends
TO drag the latter down 10 the esti-
nation OF American citizens wi o
do not know the Hawaiian. The
people generally do not spend the
time to go into all the why's and
Wherefores of the vagaries ex-
pounded by the morning organ.
TO deal with the subject properly
the Advertiser should publish
book, or else give each reader
key so that the people generally
will know what it really wants to
say.
