DRANNIGAN carried Ice for the syi-
d van Spring Ice company. He was
q goodly young fellow. standing
ak feet one In his stockings with
countenance deeply bronzed by
weather, out of which his wide
blue eyes laughed increasingly. His
flannel shirt, open a little at the
base OF the strong. round throat and
his broad felt hat, indented with a YER

of this. and traded on II with the maids

fleeing to the door with q smart cuff
ringing In his ears.
But he was TO learn that there was q
type of womanhood demanding more
deferential approach.
The first time he saw Alma was on a
hot afternoon In August. when she'had
just come down from Nova Scotia, and
was feeling the atmosphere Of the South
end oppressive.
Her mother, who kept a boarding
house, and had combined with that re-
sponsibility the care OF a shiftless sec
ond husband and his two small boys.
had written to Halifax that Alma was
needed. Alma was n slender. dark

and slim, ladylike hands.
Brannigan, swinging in with his huge
ice block. took a swift. appreciaiive
look at her. dumped the ice In It's re-

swing for conversation.

"Ye'n not stay here! the old lady
can't kape no gyurl more than week;
It's a hole of place!"
"rm Mrs. Browns daughter, from
Halifax"
Brannigan went away at that, sud
denly speeches..
lie saw her nearly every day after,
but he did not seem TO make much head
way. A packet of chewing gum, which
had appeared to him a graceful atten-
ton suitable from any gentleman TO
any lady, was received with disappoint-
ing GOODNESS.
"It's very kind Of you" she said, "but
/ never use IL. Mrs. Daily, where lived
in Halifax, thought II was common"
One day about a month after her ar
riyal, he found Alma alone in the
kitchen-and marked with concern that
her eyes were red with crying. Now.
Brannigan had a mans philosophy re-
garding tears.
Aren't ye well at alp" he asked
coming up beside her.
I'm all right" said Alma, holding
her head down, and plunging her thin
little arms into tub Of soapsuds.
The next moment she was startled
and scandalized by the clasp Of an arm
about her waist, and the touch of q
brown mustache on her cheek.
"Ah, cheer up!" whispered Branni-
gan, tenderly, sit don't sthorm livery

lie stepped back TO avoid the expected
slap; but the girl made no sort of dem
onstration. She simply stood there with
a white face and looked unutterable re-
proach.
Tactics Of so novel kind were dis
composing. Brannigan's bronzed cheek

Equal provision has been made for
the care of boys and girls, but, as IL is
expected, and as statistics in other
States show, that institutions Of this
character contain about twice as many
boys as girls, provision has been made
for caring for them in about this pro-
portion, and although the two institu-

from 200 to 800 feet, they are 50

While each cottage contains its own

generally recommended. Provision

The arrival OF the 39th Regiment in
Honolulu has been the cause Of much
favorable comment. This is one Of the
volunteer regiments enlisted under the
new Federal laws. The men OF the
39th are a stalwart lot Of soldiers and
are, as class, OF better physique than
the earlier volunteer troops that passed
through Honolulu. There Is none Of
the irregularity in the men of the 3gth
so noticeable in the former State VOL

MAY STRIKE AT RUSSIA.

Report That Japan Is Preparing for
a Struggle.
LONDON. Nov. ct is believed here
that Japan is preparing to strike at
Russia, her traditional enemy, in the
Far East Both mail and cable adj
vices from Japan, Corea and China
unite in declaring that Japan is MAX
ing a series of military preparations
entirely out of line with present neces
stiles. 1t is alleged that 10000 troops
have been struggled into Corea as
coolies, and that her army and navy
are ready for mobilization at very short
notice. Japan has a number of war
ships under construction abroad, and
conservative opinion holds that she
will not act until they are completed
and delivered.
The Daily Mail, discussing the pros
poets of war, says: Japan knows that
her time for striking is now or in the
forthcoming spring. That is to say,
she must assail Russia before the COM
pletion of the Trans-Siberian Railway
and while the hands Of France are tied
by the Paris Exposition. If Japan
takes the opportunity the war is like
ly to have but one result. Russia was
never more heavily handicapped, while
Japan was never better equipped. Both
nations are suffering from the stringen-
cy Of money, but the plight Of Russia
is infinitely worse than that of Japan
in this respect.
Interest in the politics of the West
ern hemisphere is so great today that
we quite forgot that the desire for re-
venge has been nacbored by the jap
anese since Russia robbed them Of the
fruits of their victory over China. The
japanese, however, are not so forget
full"
1t is believed here that Japan is anx-
ious for the conflict and will not hest
tate when the opportunity presents
itself.

Even-Handed Justice.
LAFAYETTE Gazetts.

The killing Of the negro child
by q white man in St. Martin pa
rish, is, from ell accounts. a inost
deplorable tragedy. If the kill
ing of this negro boy is accideu-
tai, of course there can be no guilt
attached to it. If it is not scci.
dental no plea can be advanced
which justifies the killing. We
can not conceive how the willful
killing of a l2-year-old child by .
man can be justi6able. That is
all there is to it.
Politically speaking the negro
is where he should be. He has
no business in governmental af-
fairs and his disfranchisement by
the constitutional convention was,
as all good people will concede, a
most salutary measure. Expert
ence proves and every law of ma
ture shows that the Caucasian is
immeasurably superior to the ne
gro race. But now that the white
mon of this country are in charge
of every branch of the govern
ment, the courts especially should
deal out even-handed justice to
all, regardless of their color or 90
cial standing. We are no negro
lover, nor are We a sentimentalist,
but we do believe that q plain
sense of human justice should be-
hoove every white citizen to exert
himself toward the condign pun.

The Small Advertiser.


A. b. Owner.
For years the prevalent idea has
been that advertising was for large
dealers only, and many small mer.
chants where deferred from i'm.
proving opportunities in the way
of practical advertising. Nearly
if not all of the large retail mer.
chants of the United States have
become so by extensive advertis-
ing. The advertising which they
have done is not the cause of sue.
cess, but it has been the greatest
contributing cause. Most all large
enterprises which are successful
have begun on q small scale.
Their advertising was done in .
small way, but it has been kept up
day after day and year after year.
Good business methods, untirinR
industry and good advertising are
the factors which succeed in busi-
ness.
The small advertiser should not
let the big one frighten them of.
Many times the we'll worded read
er Of only . few lines will reach
the eyes of moro readers than the
pretentious display of the large
store. It tells the people you have
goods to sell and what you will
sell them for. That is all the big
store can say. 1t is the price and
quality that sells the goods. The
dealer who will sell his shoes,
quality considered, for the least
money, and let's the people know
it, will receive the patronage.
Every city has plenty of exam
pies showing how small dealers in
all kinds of merchandise have
made their business success by
means of newspaper advertising.

The governor of state Is said to
have declared his intention to pardon
or parole all convicts in the peniten-
tiary who have consumption, his argu-
ment being that the disease is conta-
gious aud the other prisoners might
catch It. If this is SO the action of tha
governor must be characterized as un-
wise and illogical. Sanitarians tell us
there is almost no danger of the spread
of consumption if proper care is taken
to disinfect and destroy the expector-
ated matters. This can be done per-
fectIy in prisons. where discipline is
absolute, but would probably not be
done by the patient in his own home.
So the governor let's the consumptive
out of the penitentiary, where the
health of convicts only is endangered
and where the danger of contagion can
be reduced to a minimum, and sends
him out into the world to scatter
broadcast among innocent and law
abiding people the seeds of this terri

self? Chiefly because parliament has
made timely or belated concessions to
Justice. Recent legislation has made
it possible for the peasant to acquire
title to the land he cultivates, and
has given him a voice in the local gov
