Children Of Hawaii, protect your
selves and realize that the great
motto OF the world to-day is that
"the father will survive" Don't be-
lieve that your children and the
young people of your race will ben
eft by your sulky inactivity, AS
long as there was hope to preserve
the independence OF Hawaii, as long
as we saw a chance to uphold the
banner, and as long as we thought
that the Hawaiians should hurl re-
tribution against the felons OF 1898,
we fought and got jailed in what we
considered a good and noble cause.
The zig" is up and we think that
the Hawaiians should listen to us
and follow our advice to register
and vote and swear.

How to Use a Telephone.

A telephone girl who knows, according
to daily paper, suggests these rules for
people who use the telephone:
If you have telephone in your Office
or store, ring up Central" and then Oh
wait on customer.
Always speak in an undertone, in order
to make Central ask you over what vol
want. II she does not hear you, tell her
to wake up" or take the cotton out of
her ears.
Take your time in answering your bell
or, what is better, do not answer 1t all.
but In about half an hour ring up and
ask who called you and get mad it Cen
trail hasforgotten who it was. She has
nothing else to do but to remember.
Allow everybody who wants to, to use
your telephone.
Hang the receiver big end up. as in this
way 1t gets full of dust, which makes
another Cause for complaint.
Bang on the transmitter as though Won
interded to knock it through the wall.
This invariably makes it talk better.
Refuse 10 pay toll messages, and IL YOU
arc on line with some ore always listen
to their conversation and be sure to want
the use OF line while they are using 1t.
III you call for some one and they are
busy, get mad ana say you pay as much
as any one and you want them at once.
Whenever you see the manager tell him
that II he cannot give you beater tele.
phone OF get that one fixed, you will throw
the Inspector comes, deny that you have
ever complained of the telephone, and
say that 1t works like charm.
taste this in your telephone for future

Convulses a Group of Washing
ton Statesmen with a Story.
Lew Dpckstader, the minstrel, en-
tertained a group of Senators and
representatives in the Senate restau-
rant the other day with new story.
Here it is:
"Out in Illinois | knew an old
old farmer who was in the hog-rais.
ing. One day last spring he drove.
into Chicago and bought herd of
fine Berkshire shoats, paying three
cents IL pound for them. He drove
the hogs to his farm, thirty or forty
miles from town, fed them on bran,
corn and all kinds of fattening feed.
He used to get up with the chickens
in the morning to look after the
hogs ank kept close tab on them all
day.
"Late IN the fall, having spent
about $40 apiece to fatten them, he
drove them back to the Chicago
stock yards. There he found that
the price of hogs had gone down,
land the best he could get for them
was three cents pound. The hogs
had nearly bankrupted him and he
was compelled to make the sacrifice
"On his way home, despondent
aud down on his luck, he met an old
friend, who asked:
.'What did you get for your hogs?'
"sThree cents pound, jut what
paid for them"
well, you didn't make much
on The deal, eh?'
"sNo, replied the farmer, sbut
had the society of the hogs"
"That," said Dockstader, while
the group was convulsed with
laughter, "reminds me of the Phil
ippme controversy. We wont make
anything out of the islands, but we
will have to pay for the society OF
the alays, half breeds, Hottentots,

Jaeger land SUIT.
A Verdict Rendered la The
Mature of a aCompromise,
New TRIAL MAY BE ASKED
The Verdict fills Nearly Three
Pages of Foolscap and is very
Intricate.

The verdict in the UIlman-Iaeger case
which had been in progress before the
United States Court at Charleston since
October8, was reached Tuesday after
noon, and we take the following extract
from the Daily Herald:
1.-THE verdict fills nearly three pages
of foolscap AID is very intricate. By
both sides it is regarded as being in the
nature of compromise. The defen.
dants obtains little more than half OF
the disputed tracts, including portion
OF the improved coal land; while the
plaintiffs obtain a little less than half.
If the verdict is permitted to stand the
plaintiffs are forever shut out from
over 10000 OF the 100000 acres involv-
ed. 1t is possible that thsy will ask
the court to set aside the verdict and
award new trial. Colonel Jaeger. one
of the plaintiffs, stated yesterday even
ing that this would probably be done,
but his attorneys have not yet decided.
THE verdict is only partial decis-
ion. 1t decides merely as to the loca
tion of the disputed tracts. AT tho trial
of the other part of the case, which will
occur next May, the question oJ junior
patents and adverse claims will come
up and full decision will be render
ed. Though the verdict found Monday
excludes Ullman and Jaeger from half
of the lands they claim aud leaves them
in possession of the defendants, it does
not, on the other hand, confirm the title
of Ullman and Jaeger to the tract left
them. They must now fight out those
who are claiming land within the boun-
daries left them by the verdict. Register
