1 didn't. / don't see why You would want
to emphasize it in that vicious way il
l had said it. AS a matter of fact, il
was Haskell said so, and you smiled
sweetly and agreed with him. If you
took it as a personal insult L don't sec
why you didn't raise Cain about ii
right then"
Il wish you would try not to be SO
coarse in your expressions. You'll be
swearing at me next"
Il wouldn't wonder if 1 did myself.
As far as Mrs. Drake cheating or
signaling is concerned. you are very
much mistaken. That's all there is
about that. If there was anything OF
that sort going on 1 think 1 should
have noticed it."
Il didn't know you were watching her
so constantly as all that. Perhaps if
you had paid a little less attention to
her and a little more to the game we
might have made a better showing"
Il didn't trump your trick, at all
events"
No, that was just the one thing that
you didn't do. l think that's a great
deal to boast of for n man who prides
himself on his whist playing, as you
do. l used to think that you liked to
play with me for a partner. but don't
suppose anything short of Mrs. Drake
would satisfy you now"
MARY, why in-in the came of ev-
erything unreasonable and senseless
are you karping on Mrs. Drake in this
way? What has the woman ever done
to you, Id like to know"
Don't you like to talk about her? I
thought perhaps you would"
Il don like to hear anybody talked
about in hat way"
Very well; I'll try and do better. L
think she is just charming. So quiet
and refined in her manner and so witty.
| think it is perfectly lovely to hear
Z woman use slang in the way she does
and so few of us have the accomplish
Such a piquant, freckled complexion
and 4 little rosebud of a mouth. I
think if l was afflicted with a mouth
like hers l would try not to call so
much attention TO it. and if / ever saw
bleached hair in my life that woman
bleaches. You needn't tell me-"
Il didn't intend to tell you. Can't
you think of anything else? Isn't one
of her ears a misft, and couldn't you
notice a cast in her eye? l think you
might have done so if you had looked a
little closer"
Il suppose you mean to be sarcastic.
If al angel ted you that Mrs. Drake
had any imperfections / don't suppose
you would believe it,"
An angel would probably nave some
thing better to do than to go trapesins
around knocking a little woman who
never did him any harm. There's one
thing about Mrs. Drake / will say. now
you bring the subject up. l never
heard her say a word against any other
oma or make sneering remarks"
people who live in glass houses"
Il see. Then when we see a lady
prancing about singing stones in every
direction we are to take that as an in
evidence that she resides
in IN impregnable fortress of granite,
with wire netting over the windows. 1
thought Mrs. Drake seemed very pleas
ant to you. and"
Certainly she was. She was most
kind and gracious. 1 was quite over
powered. L haven't felt so honored by
the notice of anyone for a long time. l

per-" said Mr.. Grigsby, as he and
Mrs. Grigsby hastened from the scene
ofthelate revelry. Everything seemed
to taste good. Mrs. Haskell is an ele.
giant entertainer"
81 hardly think that elegant is the
word to use," observed Mrs. Grigsby.
Il suppose l ought to have said that
she's a gracious hostess or something
of that kind" said Mr.. Grigsby. 81

That's her natural manner, is it!
Well, 1 suppose you ought to know.
You seemed to notice her a good deal.
I'd be sorry if it was my natural man.

SO very much"
81 didn't say it pleased me-"
1T wasn't necessary, but then /
don't know hat we need talk about
her. If you weren't pleased with her
you can disguise your feelings pretty
WELL
IF you could manage to disguise
yours a little once in awhile l think you
would be even more popular than you
are"
THANK you! haven't any particu-
lar desire to have a lot of men crowd
ing around me all the time. l am con-
tent to leave that sort of popularity to
Mrs. Drake. I'd like to hear what you
would have to say if 1 carried on in the
way she does. l suppose her husband
likes it,"
81 never heard that he objected to it.
He seems to think that she has not yet
forfeited all claim to his respect and af-
fiction. By the way, l never knew you
to play a worse game of whist than you
did tonight"
81 expected you would say something
of that kind. If it's your idea that by
saying that you defend your own
shortcomings, it's very foolish of you,
my dear"
Il notice that lately you never call
me my dear until you begin to get
mad"
II get mad! Well, I'd be justified if
I were. A man who would play the
king as second player when the four
was led, and he had the seven and nine
in bis hand besides, has a great right to
talk about bad play"
n was going on the theory that she
was calling for the king with the ace

Mrs. Drake was signaling. 1 sup

THEY CAPTURE THE TOWN
LABoRiNG MEN HAVE THEIR WAY
TODAY.
Grand Parade This Morning Followed
by Speechmaking-Spo at the Park
and Dance Tonight.

The weather Bureau promises fair
weather with probably occasional val
ley showers for Labor Dag.
This will be most elaborate observan-
ce of Labor Day the Hawaiian Islands
has ever seen. In fact, Honolulu will
perhaps break the record and show
more Difference to the day than any
city i'm the world has ever done or ever
will do until Markham's Man With
the Hoe" gets his hoe in the money bar
rels of the rich. Government offices will
close; banks will not open; stores will
take n rest; The Star will not be pub
lished this afternoon.
The first thing this morning will be
the parade. This will be formed at the
drill shed and will start at o'clock
sharp. All floats and persons taking
part in ii are requested to be on hand
at S:45 sharp. This request comes from
the committee and from Mr.. Wolf, who
will arrange the line. The procession
will proceed as follows:
From the drill shed to Hotel street,
to Richards, to King, to Fort to Vine
yard, to Emma, to Beretania, to Alapai,
! back to King, and along King to the
! capitol grounds where il will disband
capitol grounds where il will disband.
| When the procession reaches the capitol
grounds the verandas and nails of the
capitol building will be open to the pub
lie.
Immediately thereafter the speech
making will take place from the band
stand on the capitol grounds. District
Attorney John c. Baird will deliver the
address of the day. The other speakers
will be George A. Davis and Lorrin A.
Andrews. All will have topics concern
ing labor and the significance of the day
itself.
At l o'clock in the afternoon the
sports at Kapiolani park will begin
The program of these has been publish
ed several times before. Interspersed
with the field sports will be the horse
races. There will be prizes for all of
the events The grounds will be open to
the public during the afternoon.
The event of the evening, and one of
the leading features of the day, will be
the ball in the drill shed. For this pur-
pose the armory has been most taste
fully decorated with national flags,
bunting and potted plants. Above are
streamers of bunting to a central star.
On every side are pretty designs in
bunting and on the stage is an attrac-
tive arrangement of palms and ferns
all the pots of which are decorated with
patriotic bunting In the front of the
hall is an improvised railing, also at
tractively decorated with the national
colors.
The grand march of the ball will start
at o'clock sharp. An orchestra from
the Hawaiian band will supply the mu-
sic. In the wee sma' hours % tomor-
row morning the last dance will be
finished and the first Labor Day in Ha-
wall will be over.

SOCIALIST SKUNK AGAIN.
A Street Crater Interrupted by the
Police.

NJ. Skunk, street lecturer, had another
little interview with the police on Sa-
turday night. Skunk declared that he
has right to air his views on the pub
lie streets and a short time ago he was
fined in the police court for o5struat-
ing the sidewalk and as he left the
courtroom declared that he would do it
again.
On Saturday night Skunk started all-
other meeting, at the corner of Nuuanu
and Hotel streets. He was discussing
labor questions and telling his auditors
what they ought to do to bring about
the millennium, when the police came
along and broke up the meeting.
Shunks crowd is said to have been
obstructing the sidewalk, so the officers
made the people dispense and put an end
to his elOquence. The crater is a Socia-
list, who talks on labor questions. he
claims that his rights of free speech"
are interfered WITH and declares that
he has right to air his views as he
was doing when stopped.

MIR. SMITH wITHDRAWs.

George w. Smith has withdrawn from
the Honolulu Republican, morning
paper of this city. He was an officer, a
director, of the company and a stock
holder. His reason for Withdrawing his
support from the paper he says was it's
policy, which has changed from that
originally mapped out. The paper had
an suspicious start, but drifted into a
rut that has been Objectionable to Mr..
Smith.
