Mr.. Editor: Since you have been
good enough to entrust me with the
task Of inditing an answer to the
above communication, will endeavor
to do so according to my lights. The
question proposed by your corre-
spondent possesses peculiar interest
just now, inasmuch as The Hague"
has become the cynosure OF the whole
civilized world as being the rendez-
vous of the Peace Conference the out
come Of whose deliberations may so
materially affect the welfare Of ali
mankind In the future.
To the best Of my knowledge, then,
and disclaiming the least pretensions
to being an authority on matters APP
pertaining to the science Of philology,
! contend that the reason for prefxing
the definite article in this instance
must be sought in the fact that the
word is not proper name In the
usual acceptation OF the term, but
may perhaps more correctly be CLASH
fed under the category Of descriptive
nouns. The Hague, in plain English,
means a hedge or "haw"-i. e., an en-
closure or garden adjoining a dwell
ing. j believe 1t TO be an admittedly
historical fact that the beautiful city
referred to was In early times the site
OF a hunting lodge, and favOrite re-
sort Of the Counts of Holland. AS a
consequence, the Dutch gave the place
the name of IS Craven Hage," liter
ally translated, "the Counts hedge or
haw" Afterwards 1t was changed TO
Den Haag" by way of abbreviation;
the Germans term 1t Der Haag," and
the French la Hage." The word is
probably of Scandinavian derivation,
the Danish version being "Hauge."
The practice OF prefixing the def
mite article to geographical names Is
pretty common one. AS most OF
your readers are aware Sahara" Is
simply a slight corruption Of an Ara
bian word synonymous with desert
When we speak Of THE Sahara" the
word Is used specifically, and as take
| It, in order to emphasize the fact that
the great African desert Is meant, just
as we know that the appellation The
Channel" is given to that vast water
way which separates the British Isles
from the Continent Of Europe, and
that "The Peninsula" is understood t.
| signify the Iberian Peninsula, com
prising Spain and Portugal.
| All of which, Mr.. Editor, Is respect
| fully submitted.

anniversary of Argentine's indepenn-
ence. From stern 20 stern the flags
flew with that Of the Argentine Re

eral invitation had been extended 10
Honolulu people to visit the ship and
take part In the holidays observation.
This was most willingly accepted, and
the vessels steam launch was kept
busy carrying the people on board.
The ship had been placed in readi-
ness for the guests. Everything was
thrown open and courteous officers con-
Quoted parties wherever they wished
to go. The band provided music, play

boat race between crews from the port
and starboard watches was one Of the
features. Bert" Collins, the ships
instructor OF boxing, induced some Of
his pupils to give an exhibition Of their
prowess. Thus In different ways was
amusement provided for the guests.
The u. S. A. +. Solace honored the
event by being decked out in gala
dress. Her officers called early on
board the Sarmiento and presented
their compliments. Officers OF the T..
S. tug Iroquois also called.
In the evening a dinner was given
on board to the President and cabinet,
members of the diplomatic corps and a
number OF invited guests. The dining
hall was elegantly decorated with how-
ers, flags and coored lights. Appro-
pirate toasts were offered and elo-
Iauently responded to by both guests
land hosts. The affair was delightful
in every way, being a worthy close to

A FINANCIAL PLAN.

a plan Is taking form to place
money matters here on a sim
pier, easier and more convenient
and less uncertain basis than at
present. The scheme suggested
is a plain one, bringing for
ward a method that will find
much ready support.
1t Is proposed that all planta-
tions and businesses paying
dividends do SO at the rate OF
stated percentages to continue
indefinitely.
The companion idea is that
all assessable stocks subject
holders to small regular penal
ties or payments each month.
The calculation is that this
} will make an evenness or bal
ance that will insure confidence
} and steadiness.
This matter is now being so
} shaped that very soon there will
be a conference OF factors.

her. The Maria Wood was once the
Thames proudest vessel and possessed
right OF waterway over all other river
craft. Her crew numbered forty oars
men, who rowed in high hats and gor-

built after the fashion of ancient state
galleys. the Oarsmen's benches being

stern was taken up by a cabin sup
ported by Corinthian columns. The
barge was richly carved, and her cabin
appointments were sumptuous. She
blazed with embossed metal, and a gi-
gantic statue OF Britannia served for
fgurehead. For years the Maria
Wood lay rotting In a Thames back

her usefulness, and the river Is no
longer the quickest roadway by which

eight o'clock the same evening, is receiv-
ed by Mrs. TimsOn with q face Of such
portentous gravity that he is fain to OBJ
serve 1t.
Anything the matter?' he inquiries,
curiously.
