TONNES WIN
Football at PunahOu
Yesterday.
Scores 81 to Nothing--Hackdriyer
Finds TrOubIe--A Quiet New
Years Day.

New Years day passed very quietly
in Honolulu. The only outdoor sport
was at Punahou, but not more than
200 persons were present. Waikiki
seemed, as usual, 10 be the most ia
vored spot near the city, but numerous
driving parties visited the mountains
and outlying districts. The railway
was very well patTonized. Strong evil
dence of the plague scare was maDi-
F, fest in every direction.
The football game between the town
boys and the Sixth Artillery team, at
the PUnahou College grounds, was a
big disappointment to those who wit
messed 1t. The issue was never for a
moment in doubt, and the town team
simply had a walkoyer, as the score
81 to 0 testifies.
Following was the lineup: Town
Team, 10, c.: COckett, r.g.; McLane,
Lg.; Wise, It.; Mcpherson, r.t.; Vida,
Le.; Lawrence, re-; Prince Cupid, rh.;
GleesOn, !. H.; Parker. f.b. Artillery
m-Christianson, C.; Dunn, Lg.;
Barge. re-; McCleary, TT; Schappa-
cher, 1t; Kinder, re-; DeWOlfe, Le.:
Hyatt, g.b.; Buckley, f.b.; KunhO. r.h.;
Bergin, I.h Referee-BrOoks. Time
keepers-Judd and Koch.
Parker kicked of from the Waikiki
end at 3:17 and some fair play was
witnessed for a few minutes, till Glee-
son got hold Of the ball and made a
forty yards run before he was downed.
a minute afterward Cupid secured the
sphere and carried it behind the
sticks. Parker failed to make a goal.
On resuming play. Vida made a
great run of quite sixty yards, well
into the enemy's country. Lawrence
carried the ball behind and Cupid
made a successful goal. Scores IL to O..
At the call of half-time, the ball was
well into the town boys lines, and in
possession of the artillerymen.
Six minutes had passed in the sec
ond half, when Gleeson got the ball
within five yards Of the Artillery goal
line, after a splendid run. Lawrence
again scored a touchdown, but Cupid
failed in his kick for goal. Some bad
fumbling by both elevens was then
witnessed.
A little diversion occurred in the
shape OF a fight, or, rather, an ex-
change of blows, between a drunken
hackdriver and one of the linemen, a
soldier The hackman had been look
| ing for trouble all the afternoon, and,
/ fortunately for him. selected the line
man as an object for abuse. He was
promptly sent to grass for his trouble
and treated to a few gentle hints, adj
ministered where they would probably
do the most good, after which he was
elected from the grounds.
/ On resuming, some open play was
/ followed by another good run and
score by Vida, who failed to secure a
goal.
The remainder Of the game seemed
but an exhibition and inside Of twelve
minutes the town boys got over their
opponents goal line twice, but failed
to kick goals, and the referees whistle
ended the game, with the local team
on the long end of score of 81 to o.

The SOrrowfuI Tree
From the Philadelphia Press.

From the Philadelphia Press.
 There is a tree in Persia to which the name 'the sorrowful tree" is given. Per hAps because it blooms only in the even- ing.
 When the first star appears in the heav- ems the first bud of the sorrowful tree opens. and as the shades of night advance and the stars thickly stud the sky the buds continue gradually opening until the whole tree looks like an immense white flower On the approach of dawn. when the bril- liancy of the stars gradually fades in the light of day, the sorrowful tree closes it's flowers, and ere the sun is fully risen not single blossom is visible. A sheet of flower dust, as white as snow, covers the ground around the foot of the tree which seems blighted and withered during the day, while, however, 1t Is actively preparing for the next nocturnal festival The fra grance of the blossom is like that of the evening primrose.
 If the tree Is cut down close to the roots new plant shoots up and attains ma- turity In an incredibly short time.
 In the vicinity of this singular tree there usually grows another, which Is almost an exact counterpart of the sorrowful tree. but less beautiful and, strange to say, it blooms only In the daytime.

characteristics of that person from a cen sus standpoint are punched into the bit of pasteboard.
 Director Merriam now has in his custody no less than 32,000 separate portfolios from enumerators representing a good deal more than half of the population, hut there are 20,000 portfolios still out, leaving gaps in all the large cities, including Chicago.
 The chances are now that Cincinnati will be the next city out of the box. The work of taking the census of population Is sure to be completed before Congress meets. The census office already has, besides this work, received 3O0000 schedules of manu- featuring establishments and 100000 agri- cultural scheduleS.
 It Is no little job to pay off the enumera- tors. About 5000 of them have been taken care of and the rest are being paid at me rate of 1000 a day. It will be the end or September before the rest are all paqd on.
 Those whose sheets were free from error were the first put on the pay roll, whlie those who made mistakes will have to walt longer for their money. AS the enumera- tors are paid by the number of names they took instead of by the time they occupied they cannot be paid off until their schedules are all checked up.

all his illusions gone, and he come at last to his little limitations. Henceforth Birm- inCham was to be home; and that vas comforting.
 Courage-bra cling whistling and groaas and impending disasters were all that remained of the 'boom." Birmingham was slowly coming to its senses; the days of insanity were passing. The rats were deserting what seemed to them to be ship that was sihK- ing The adventurers were departing to seek other adventures The leveiiing pro- cess was in progress. Reason was coming to reign; slowly, perhaps but coming. ".::E point whence real progress was to pro- gress was being reached; by devious and winding ways much sorrow and disturb ances, perhaps, but being reached.
 It took Birmingham ten years to get over its wild debauchery it's mad drunkenness, but 1t got over it all; and then it began it's real career of real greatness. There is more of real merit, real worth. more of sturdy honesty and steady development, more al-embracing worthiness in Birming ham in one minute of this August Sunday of 1900 than there was in the whole month of May, 1887!
 Birmingham is intensely real now; it is profoundly in earnest. There is no more of humbuggery, whitewash, guSh, 'boom' swindlng!
 But there Is here the most alert, the most wide-awake, the most vigilant, the most industrious, the most progressive. the most enlightened, the most prosperous, the most substantial, and the most nobly promising town on this continent The most visionary man amongst this busy, happy, hopeful population is not imaginative enough to foresee the splendid certainties of Birming- ham. He is lame and halt and blind who now talks of the possibilities of great Brm- ingham, for the certainties so perfectly clear to clear visions are so splendid that none cares to dream of what may be ahead of the things that are in sight as the reali- ties of the next few years!
 Beautiful Birmingham! Glorious Birm- ingham! Best beloved Birming ham. there Is now within thy compass the noblest inn perial riches, power, spendor! Great Birm- ingham!

Census Figures
Washington Correspondence of the Chicago rHrib

Washington Correspondence of the Chicago
 Tribune.
 Within the next two or three weeks enough census figures will be completed to justify some guesses as to the total popu- la ton of the country When cities like New York Philadelphia, Chicago, New Or leans and San Francisco have been counted up it will be possible to secure an average of the gain of the population in the large cen ters, and this, coupled with a few agricul- tural counties here and there, with srrinkling of small towns will enable the statsticians to make a pretty accurate guess of the ratio of the gain over 1890.
 The only large city yet footed up is Washington, and here the ratio of gain was 1890. Those who have been studying the figures assert that the same ratio will hold throughout the country.
 From 1880 to 1890 there was no time of peculiarly marked financial depression, while there have been hard times during nearly half of the last decade.
 If the figures already made at the Gen. sus office could only be Jumped they would go far toward settling the question of pop ulation, but they represent enumerators' districts and not whole towns or counties.
 The punching and tabulating machines have already counted up no less than S. 100000 cards, representing that many of the population, for each card contains the record of one human being. old or young, black or white. male or female, and all the

The0IdaRt Loaf

The oldest loaf in existence has recently passed into the hands of the British Mu- scum authorities. It was discovered in AssyriA by French explorer, together with the remnants of several other pieces of bread carefully wrapped In cloth.
 It is supposed that 1t was leavened and baked about the year 560 B. C., when 1t was the custom to put food in the coffin with a dead person. It resembles a penny bun in shape and color, and is in perfect condition.
 The flavor does not seem to impress the explorers, but this Is not surprising, con- sidering its 2,000 years of entombment.
