Had to Rouse the Doctor.

One night not long ago New York
man reached the apartment house in
which he lived about 2 o'clock. A
search of all his pockets failed to bring
forth his keys. He rang the bell re.
peatedly for the janitor, but could gel
no response. There were family rea'
sons why it was inadvisable for him tc
spend the rest of the night away from
home. The sight of physicians night
bell gave him an idea. He pushed the
button hard for thirty seconds or more,
In due season the physician came te
the door and opened it. "What is you,

out individual. -Four dollars" wa.

An Excellent Combination.

An Excellent Combination.
The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF FIGS, manufactured by the
CALIFORNIA FIa SYRUP Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known to be
incidentally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. It
is the one perfect strengthening laxa.
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevsrs
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from SIENNA and
other aromatic plants, by method
known to the CALIFORNIA FIe SYRUP
Co. only. In order to get its beneficial
effects and to avoid limitations, please

A GRAND SUCCESS
Progress Hall Crowded
Last Night.
Every Number on the Program of the
Amateur Orchestra Concert
Applauded.

y most decided success was the con
Hall for the benefit of the music fund
Of the Amateur Orchestra The fash
ion and the elite of the city were there
with the two-fold object of listening TO
a most excellent and well-rendered
program and of helping out a most
worthy cause The auditorium was
completely filled when Director Wray
Taylor lifted his baton for the first
number.
The Amateur Orchestra is always
good, but the members seemed to real
ize last night that it was a special oc-
casion and consequently they were on
their mettle. Each one of the four Sc
lections played by them during the
evening met with hearty applause.
J. b. O'SulliVan was warmly greeted
when he made his first appearance be-
fore a. Honolulu audience. In "The
Carbine Song" and "Once in the Purple
Twilight" his deep, rich bass voice re-
minded one of his brother, Denis O'Sul-
liyan, who is today one of America S
foremost singers.
For the first time Honolulu people
were privileged to hear double-bass
solo, George Brand showed his must
cal ability and knowledge of that diff
cult instrument in well-rendered and
heartily applauded solo.
The appearance of Mrs. Annis Mon
tague Turner upon a Honolulu stage is
always sign for applause from people
with whom she is such a favOrite. In
her two solos she showed that she has
lost none Of her power to charm the
ear, and both were rendered in her
usual talented manner. The accompan-
iment, violin Obligato, Dr. O. E. Wall;
piano, Miss l.. M. Kruger and organ
Wray Taylor, calls for special men
tiOn.
In her recitation Mrs. J. w. Berg
strom made her first public appearance
as an elOcutiOnist in Honolulu. Her
rendition was most delightful and that
it was appreciated was evidenced by
the hearty applause which greeted its
close.
Mr.. J. II. Irvine has a sweet tenor
voice which was brought out to adj
vantage in his solo, "a Youth Once
Loved q Maiden"
The concert was one Of the most
successful ever given in this city.

MAKING A MONKEY OF 1T.

The Ogden Standard reprints the
Tcibune's paragraph wherein it ad-
mits that the Law reception was band
less and the demonstration a fzzle. and
adds:
Strange, is it not. that the Tribune
cannot be fair and tell the exact truth
IN the matter. 1t has allowed its en-
nifty for McCune to. color its news, and
when forced to contradict a false state
ment, the above tactics are adopted. >"
No, it isn't strange. To expect any
thing else Of our morning contemporary
is to be unreasonable. When the
leopard changes its spots and the
Ethiopian his skin it may cease to be
Influenced altogether by personal likes
and dislilles.
In the same way it colored its dis
patches from Nernal and from Richfield
during the senatorial contest. They
were editorial opinions under date
lines, full of false assertions, and its
Richfeld correspondent had the
decency to disavow those coming from
his section
And now a real friend, deeply humili-
atee at the spectacle our neighbor is
making Of itself informs it that its
Logan dispatches are false.
And so it goes.

NON-PARTlSANSHIP.

The city of Salt Lake has what is
known as a non-partisan administra-
ton.
Mayor Clark is a Democrat, although
elected as a non-partisan.
The city council is Democratic by a
two-thirds majority. although two of
the ten Democrats in the council were
elected on the non-partisan ticket.
Thus, while the mayor and the city
council are decidedly Democratic, the
municipal administration is said to be
non-partisan.
Under the new fire and police law
these departments of city government
and protection viii be reorganized.
1t will be necessary to appoint a chief
or head for each department.
AS a strictly non-partisan PROPOSE
ton no active politician should receive
an appointment. In any event abso-
lutte impartiality would prompt the
mayer to appoint and the council to
confirm one Republican and one Demo-
crat.
No one expects the mayor to name
two Democrats, and surely he would
not appoint or ask the council to con-
firm two Republicans.
Chief Devine is an active member of
the Republican party, but he has sue
ceeded fairly well in keeping personal
and partisan dissensions out of the fire
department.
In all probability the mayor viii name
him for one OF these positions.
But who viii receive the other ap-
pointment.

General Otis does not believe in treat
ing with Aguinaldo in any way. He
says it would be folly to negotiate with
him concerning an exchange of Span
ish prisoners, on the ground that to
recognize him in such a manner would
stimulate his power and encourage re-
sistance General Otis thinks the re-
bellion can be suppressed in a short
time if the United States shows a de-
termined disposition and an energetic
demonstration of force. He reports that
the Filipino leaders are now quarrel
ing desperately among themselves, and
that Aguinaldo is so desperate that he
has recently shot several of his advisers
who have recommended a surrender.
He has also given public warning that
any man who shows signs of yielding
will be put to death. This has had a
temporary effect, but General Otis does
not think it will be lasting. He fears,
however, that if our government opens
negotiations with Aguinaldo for any
purpose It will be construed as an evil
dence of weakness on our part, and re-
store confidence among the rebels. r.

WHAT DOES 1T MEANa

Here is point The Herald raised in
eight-hour bill. which has not yet been
explained. either by his excellency, or
by any of the organs that commended
his action.
Governor Wells holds that a. purpose
of the act is to prohibit the laboring
hours in the same day, even though he
desires and his necessities require him
to do so.''
This, he says, is unconstitutional.
And, as if to emphasize this opinion,
the governor continues:
ut seems to me, to provide that a
man shall not labor more than eight
hours in each calendar day, notwith-
standing his own necessities or the ne
cessities of those dependent upon him
might render it absolutely necessary
for him to do so, would be an interfer-
ence with the natural rights that every
man has, to labor for the support of
himself and family, or for the purpose
of acquiring, possessing and protecting
property"
His excellency should read the consti-
tuition again. 1t expressly provides
that which the veto says it shall not
provide
Section of article 16 of the state con-
stitution provides that EIGHT hours
shall constitute days work on all
works or undertakings carried on or
aided by the state, county or municipal
governments"
What is the governors contention?
Does he mean to advance the opinion
that section of the constitution is I'M
constitutional?
