If Mr.. Thurston wants his paper
conducted on the line of the yellow
journals of the mainland he is enti-
tied to do 80 but we doubt whether
the community will approve of this
enterprise Of one of the missionary
descendants" However he has out
lived the honor Of conducting a
dime museum aud experimenting a
hula gang and there is no reason
why he should not instruct his re.
porters to use the ''yellow" ink and
abuse those Rawaiians who happen
be officers of the police department

Mr.. Thurston's reporter was fred
out from the district which was
tabooed yesterday during the fire
because he used language to police
captain which should Immediately
have caused his arrest, and charge
of using profane language should
have been entered against his name
on the record OF the police station.

We are depressing however. What
we desire to tell Mr.. Thurston and
his editor is that the people of Ho
nolulu are not anxious to learn about
the details of the doings in the
morgue or at the pest house. This
is not the time to describe Che worn
of the physicians and terrorizing
women and nervous men who hap
pen to read the morning paper.
That the physicians allow re-
porter to be present at autopsies is
a surprise to us. 1t is to say the
least unprofessional conduct, we will
not believe that it is caused through
fear of the Advertiser. Not one of
the physicians would dream of al
lowing a reporter taking notes while
operating on or holding an autopsy
on a private patient. Why then
should the yellow scribbler be al
lowed to describe the first stroke OF
the knife in j. Weir Robertson's
femural gland or the twisting of the
muscles in Hartman's leg while q
serum was injecteds

Syringa Circle, w. o. W., will

to eclipse all other sources OF amuse-

time, with gentle wind blowing.
The mountains round us are low, with
some snow on the peaks. 1t is daylight
here all the time, the sun being out of
sight but two hours during the night.
We went prospecting for two days, but
found nothing. The land is staked for
100 miles round.

SIS per ton. The dogs had him,
all fright, but as this is not the season
for killing chittim peelers, Ofste-
dahl coaxed Smith out of the notion
of shooting. Smith was consider
ably disappointed, but said he didn't
think Gabriel's pelt would sell for
more than IS cents, anyhow. A
good many deer were jumped, but

Sheriff Ross was authorized
Wednesday evening by the county
court to take into custody Mrs. John
Anderson, on a charge of insanity,
preferred by Mrs. o. o. Krogstad.
The order was carried out yester-
day, when an examination by DR..
Thayer convinced the court that it
would be best to release the woman
until the arrival of her husband
who is at Astoria. Mrs. Anderson's S
trouble is apparently a mild de-
rangement, aggravated by very
limited knowledge of the English
language and an unexpiainable
aversion to men. She is generally
believed to be harmless and evinces
much affection for her two little
children. Mrs. Z. l.. Gowell will
be her efficient guardian until the

Kansas People Who Have Reg
istered at the Exposition.

To the Editor of the State Journal:
am led to write this for the State
Journal at the suggestion of my old class
mate at the Kansas Medical college, Dr.
Charles Hendricks, whom [ met in Paris
/ hope the letter I am sending will inter-
est Topekaus and other Kansas people,
among whom I have many warm friends.
1t Is often said, that what an American
does, he does thoroughly Many citizens
of the United States will visit Paris and
the Worlds Exposition this summer and
to aid them in seeing many of the sights
Of Paris and the Exposition, 1 will try to
give some practical hints We will sup
pose that you have read your Guide Book
beforehand, and have fair idea of what
you wish to see in the beautiful city by
the Seine. But there always exists some
thing in a city like Paris, that you ought
to know about, that can not be found in
any guide book, and it is that some
thing / want to tell you about. 1t may
seem insignificant to you, but l assure you,
that it is significant enough to corner
ter the French language.
We will suppose that after several days
on the Atlantic, you have left the good
ship and boarded the train for Paris. And
right here let me suggest, that it is gem
orally good idea to follow the crowd.
for this year all roads lead to Paris and
in Paris all roads lead to her many beau
tiful sights
After a few hours ride your train will
slowly enter the depot in Paris. You
leave your coupe and make straight for
the door which has a sign "sortie" above
It. Here you give up your railroad ticket.
In case you have a round trip ticket, you
only need show 1t at the gate. Now, fol-
low the crowd and you will soon reach the
custom house. Here you must find your
own trunk and stand by it until an officer
has examined the contents; don't get an
CRY If he soils your clothing. It would
not do you any good if you should, and,
besides. it is a necessary evil which must
be endured Beware of having many CT
gars with youl Only six are allowed to
pass the custom-house You must pay
duty on all kinds of liquors, but as you
are coming from the great Sunhower
state, you certainly will not have any ex-
perience of that sort. After Your baggage
has been searched you call a "facteur'
who viii carry your trunk however
heavy, on his back to your carriage
where you dismiss him with tip of fifty
confines. Then give the cabman the adj
dress of your hotel or 'pensionat (board-
ing house,. in the best French you know,
jump into the vehicle and off you go!

that you take an omnibus de famille.

must add a tip of twenty-five to fifty

you are ready then to meet any Partisan
