IOWA'S NAVAL HERO.
Congress VIII Be Asked to Admit
DieGnan to the Annapolis Academy.

DIES MONIES, Ia Nov. 15.-Congressman
A. L. Hager will introduce bill in Con-
gress to admit Osborne Diegnan, one of the
Merrimac heroes to the United States
Naval Academy at Annapolis. The City
Council of Stuart passed resolution some
weeks ago requesting the secretary of the
navy to admit Diegnan to the Naval
Academy, but Secretary Long declined to
do SO because Diegnan was a trifie over age,
end the secretary was opposed to establish
ing sucn precedent. A special act of Con-
gress is necessary to get him in. Diegnan' s
friends propose to raise fund of 5000 to
carry him through the academy.
The young hero is being generously feted
and entertained in the towns and cities in
his part of the State. 1t was reported that
when he arrived home last week he refused
to be kissed by the girls of Stuart who had
lined up at the railway station. This, how
ever, seems to have been a mistake, for all
the girls now assert that, though the hero
was very bashful, they managed to kiss
him in a platonic and patriotic way. One
young lady whose lips fingered on the hero 3
cheek denies that she is engaged to marry

A great deal of>sentiment was involved in
the building of the "Woman's Temple" of
Chicago-the w. c. T. U. building. 1t was
a thing to which the organization could
point with pride as a tangible and i'm
pressive proof that the Temperance Union
was a body OF consequence. 1t represented
the plans and hopes of number of leading
members and was the joy and admiration of
the rank and file. But sentiment did not
provide dollars. The financial burden got
too heavy, and affection for this great
monument that was to mark the progress
and success of the union began to wane.
At last it became so faint that the pressure
could no longer be sustained. The temple
will no longer be the Temperance Union
building. No doubt lingering regard will
cling to It in the minds OF the faithful, but

expected from the tariff to be enforced, Mr.

dollars or less, has all gone. and nothing is
likely to be found in the treasury but nu-

Library Privileges

A short meeting of the Honolulu
Library and Reading Room Associa-
ton was held last night for the pur-
pose of considering the matter of al
lowing the students at Punahou Col
lege and Preparatory School to draw
books from the library free of charge.
At the present time the children Of the
public schools enjoy that liberty but
this, it is understood, was done because
the Government had done so much for
the library. The trustees could come
to no decision and the matter was laid
over until the next meeting.
