The proverbial foible OF many per-
sons for concealing or misrepresenting
their ages is proved by the census to
be q reality. Careful scrutiny of the
returns Of population according to ages
In successive census years shows that
there II q widespread tendency among
boys and girls to report themselves
older than they really are. as II to
anticipate manhood and womanhood.
Among those who are approaching
middle age.the tendency Is in the oppo-
site direction. namely. to report them
selves younger than they are. Finally
In the case OF the very old. there is
an inclination to add to their years.
They seem to take pride In every year
they have lived since they could boast
that they were octogenarians. It 10 a
little strange that this weakness of
human nature should be SO widespread
and that both men and women should
be SO sensitive upon the subject of
their ages. seeing that there Ia NO
condition or Circumstance of life for
which the Individual is less responsible
than his age.

dollars. Being paid off next day, he re-
turned the loan and the dollar If in
terest. What per cent the shark got
for his money one must have Professor
Lyons to calculate. But at this rate
business must be remarkably profitable.
Having repaid the money the sailor
told the shark he had no right to his
box, which was at the custom house or
rather in charge of the customs guard
But the shark paid no heed, went on
board the ship and took the box. The
plan in this is that a sailor will follow
his box, and the shipping man having
possession of that can put his man
where he likes and get his head money.
1t was only few days ago that sal
lor sued for his box. but the case fell
through, because the sailor owed the
shark two dollars. However in the case
under consideration the evidence was
clear and the shipping man was COM
mitted for trial.
1t is high time that some public notice
should be taken of the condition of
things on the water front and that an
example be made. The trouble, how
ever is to get hold of these slippery
customers.

SMALL GAMBLERS.

The Star has frequently called at
tention TO the gambling that goes on
among the young boys in the streets.
Every now and again one of the wharf
gangs gets hauled up before Judge
Wilcox and justice is melted out The
very young get off, and the hobble de
hoys get few days on the roads. But
this does not cure them and they only
go back to their gambling with in
creased zest and a more careful look
out is kept for possible cops in dis
guise.
Yesterday on Kuakini street a game
of craps was in full blast The stakes
were, it is true, marbles, but none the
less the gambling spirit was there, the
bets ran high, the language when a
boy lost was as bad as would be heard
on the water front and the keenness of
the true gambler was displayed by
these young lads.
OF course this sort of game may not
be regarded as gambling, but it is
gambling nevertheless, and from mar
bles to dimes is not a far cry. The
taste for vicious pursuit is being i'm
planted in these lads and 1t will con-
tinue as they go on in life. We are
forever getting after the Chinese for
gambling, but We neglect other gam
blers and embryo gamblers entirely
In dealing with young gamblers there
should be no police work, they ought to
be dealt with in a very different spirit.
Once send a lad to Tail and you have
put mark upon him which is indeli-
BILE. You have also hardened him and
he will never again have the horror of
being put in prison cell which he feels
before he has occupied one. You do
not want to make criminals, you want
to save lads from becoming criminals.
The young gambler can only be dealt
with by personal work in trying to lead
him to better things. This kind of
work can be done by some of our peo-
pie. If men can be turned from drink,
from crime, and so forth surely our
rising generation of Hawaiian boys
can be turned from the evils of gam
bling.

ANOTHER KIND OF SHARK.

The question of water front methods
is becoming quite serious, and the diff
hcuIty lies in the length of time it takes
to get justice against the crimps. The
most fragrant cases may be sent up
from the lower court, but when they
reach the jury the prosecutor is off on
board ship to some distant port. A sal
Ior cannot afford to wait while the slow
process of law does him justice and it
is upon this the crimps depend. They
know that they can stave off the sailor,
and at the worst they can shanghai
him, and then there is no case.
In the police court yesterday some of
the peculiar methods of the orm ps were
shown up. A sailor brought up one of
the shipping men for larceny of his box
1t appears that on landing at the port
the sailor was approached by one of
these sharks and as he was to be paid
off the shark offered hin a loan of five
dollars on condition that he repaid six

A GOOD ARGUMENT.

The argument of William Haywood
at last nights Republican rally relative
to the prosperity of the Islands and of
the whole republic was a very strong
one. Mr.. Haywood, from his official
position watched the progress of our
prosperity more closely than any one
else.
The Mckinley administration has
given us sugar at five cents a pound
hundred cents. Since annexation we
have no running round searching for
gold to pay our drafts with, and when
we could not get it having to pay high
premium for drafts. Gold is plentiful and
when ones purse is full one knows one
can go to any part Of the world and ex-
change ones coin at the rate of dollar
for dollar. American gold is as good in
Paris or Berlin or London as it is in
New York.
Would such a condition of prosperity
exist under Democratic administration.
Certainly not our sugar which is now
bringing us five cents a pound would
ho lonBer De protected ana ltS value
would depreciate. Instead of five cents
we might only receive two cents and a
half and even less. Instead of being
paid in gold which will fetch dollar for
dollar in any part of the world, we
would be paid in a silver dollar worth
only forty-seven cents and that is all
we would get for it If we carried 1t to
London, Paris or Berlin.
Such a statement brings home to
every one on the Islands the disastrous
effects which would come If the Repub-
lican party were defeated and the De-
mocratic party were to come in. Our
interests are wrapped up in sugar
Prosperity to the sugar grower means
prosperity to every one on the Islands,
depression among the plantations
means depression among the mechanics
the retail store dealers. the laborers. II
any one wants to see this let him sup
port the Democracy. Republicanism,
however, means prosperity.

Lieutenant Hobson seems bound to
get notoriety somehow. He now claims
that three of the gunboats sunk off
Cavite, were not sunk by American
shells, but by the Spaniards themselves.
He however states that all three had
been on fire, that the wood work was
gone and the iron of the upper works
all twisted. AS Hobson has not adj
vanced the theory that the Spaniards
set fire TO their ships, 1t may safely be
considered that the American shells set
the vessels on fire and thus destroyed
them The Spaniards doubtless sunk
the gunboats to prevent their setting
fire to the other ships, If you set a
ship on fire so that she is useless and
a menace to other ships, you have as
effectually destroyed her as if she had
been sunk. But HobsOn could not live
without making a sensation.

The End Of This Age Draweth

The poet may sing in his grandest strain
OF love in its sweetest station,
Of peace in its prime Or the havoc OF war
As it works out its sad desolation.
He like master. may master his theme.
May out shine all bard- gone before;
Nav sing Of the brave, when the battle
begins.
And Of victory when il is Ger
He may bring TO light from the buried
past
Sweet voices that long have been dumb;
May sing Of the present with all IT'S
delights,
And Of unbounded glory to come.
But the queer old world in its onward
rush,
So wildly and madly busy,
Will scarcely give him a passing thought
Or stop to question, who is he!
Az it whirls away on the foaming tide,
If leaves the singer 10 bis sad fate,
And sadly sighs as it drifts along,
"A noble genius but born too late
Had he been here when the cross was
raised
On dark golgotha by sinful men,
When the world moved slow in its on

He might haye received its plaudt5

But now ah me- Who could stop to
think
Of things like charity, goodness or
health,
Or even the strains that poet may sing,
While pursuing the phantom Of wealth.
What is the blood Of the martyrs gf Old,
Or the worn out themes tina; they sungl
They may have been stock for the
patriarchs use,
In the days when the world was young
But not in this age, when the mind Of

The mysteries Of nature unfold;
When conscience and liberty fealty and

Are bartered for silver and gold.
We are whirling down DER the stream
Of time,
It's waves grow white in their madden

Beware old world, you may be on the

That borders the end Of the age

With all the refinement IL brings;
And it may not be long, ere the trumpet

To change the whole order Of things

When the day Of Jehovah shall come
They'll eat and they'll drink, they'll

They'll WOO and in marriage be given,
Till the hills Of political power be
brought low.
And the mountains Of empire be riyen.
