that the Americans shall be guaranteed

Mr.. Cecil Raleigh the author Of
Hearts Are Trumps," has evidently
abandoned the goody goody type Of
melodrama and has gone in for the
more fiorid phases OF London life, The
heroine, Lady Wlnifred Crosby. Is pas
sIonately addicted to gambling, ana In
a game Of baccarat at her own house
so far forgets herself as to compel the
innocent girl. who is nomlnally her
ward, but actually her daughter, TO
take her place at the table In the hope
that her luck may thereby be changed.
The child is almost Immediately ac-
cused OF cheating by a deaf dowager,
who is as impossible as she is uninter-
esting, and the game is abruptly termi-
mated.
One OF the guests OF the evening is
Michael Vain, a Scotchman, who is as
impossible as the dowager He has Just
returned from Australia, and at the
opening Of the play u IL learned that he
has practically come into control Of the
Crosby property. II is the life amhi-

treatment Of his brother by the lady's

than an insurance policy on the life Of

Never has there been such a season

water polo is fast gaining the favor 1t

This Is GOOD thing, especially as 1t
Is well known that when a great deal
OF attention is paid TO athletics and
training In general during the winter
season there are always a better show

One Of the boxers Of the heavyweight

When Madden was touring the coun-
try some two or three years ago with
Steve o'Donnell, a lusty young giant
asked for a show against the boxer.
Madden put them together for a ten
round bout, and the newcomer won.
Madden liked his looks and took him
up. The young fellow was Gus Rubin,
and his subsequent record has justified
Madden's opinion.
During the past two years Rubin

NO MONOPOLY IN NEWS

The Inter-Ocean of Chicago, became
involved in a bitter controversy with
the Associated Press, which is an Illi-
nois corporation. Out of this fight was
evolved suit in which the Associated
Press took the ground that no member
of its association could buy news from
anybody but members of the associa-
ton. The Inter-Ocean had a news ar
rangement with the New York Sun and
since the Sun was not an Associated
Press newspaper, and was declared hos
tile to that organization the Inter-
Ocean was refused news service under
rule adopted by the Associated Press
Without recounting the legal steps
involved, the contest narrowed down
to the question whether the Associated
Press, under its charter, could enforce
such rule. The lower court held that
the rule was proper but the supreme
court held that the Associated Press
had secured for itself practical mo-
nopoly OF the news business that any
newspaper in the United States that
would pay for the Associated Press
could get its news from any source II
chose, without FORGETTING its Associated
Press franchise.
While the decision is of great interest
to all newspaper publishers in this
country. II is of greater significance
as showing the trend of courts toward
monopoles AS the court very properly
| observed, the enforcement of the rule
in question would limit all Associated
Press newspapers to it's service, and
so prevent them from getting anything
but such Geographic news as the ex-
ecutive officers of the organization
might choose to send out As a matter
of public policy, the court held SUCH
limitation would be inimical to the pub
lie welfare. In a country where the
press has such enormous power In the
formation of public opinion, the control
of great news gathering concern like
the Associated Press would carry with
it practical control of political AFFAIRS
a power more effective and far-reach-
ing than the control of armies in a free
country like this. The Illinois court has
fallen into line with public sentiment
on the monopoly question.-Salt Lake

DISGUISE WAS COMPLETE.
Made Up AS a Mendicant and Was
Arrested.

Attorney c. w. Biting appeared in
the prisoners dock in the district court
this morning in a pair of slippers
shirt without a collar, an old coat with
holes in it and a black SLOUGH hat.
This was the disguise in which he was
arrested last night on King street, near
the Executive building. The charge
against him in court was soliciting aims
in public place. The case was con-
tinued until tomorrow and he was re-
leased on bonds of 500.
Biting says that yesterday he shaved
off his beard and moustache, and
friend seeing him, said his nearest
friends would not recognize him. In a
spirit of adventure he took up the idea
and decided to see if they would. Put
ting on the clothes in which he ap-
peared in court he went out in the ev-
ening and accosted friends in the guise
of mendicant. Sure enough, his dis
guise was complete. Then he aecosted
Mounted Patrolman Bryan, whom he
mistook for officer Fox. Bryan at once
arrested him.

THE PROSSER CASE

The Editor Star-There has been con-
siderable comment in your and other
Honolulu papers as to the dismissal of
Deputy Sheriff Prosser from the police
department for alleged disobedience of
orders, but so far nobody seems to
have been able to learn what the or
ders were that Mr.. Prosser disobeyed.
AS far as those in charge of the plan
tation know, Mr.. Prosser has been a
most successful officer, ever on the
alert, impartial and of the not to- be-
bought sort, and it would please Kauai
people if the Attorney General could be
induced to inform the public what the
orders were that Mr.. Prosser is sup
posed to have disobeyed. 1t would also.
be interesting to see in print what in
formation Mr.. Cooper received from
men like S. w. Wilcox, Judge Har-
dy, Mr.. Crop, Mr.. Farley and others,
relative to certain police matters in this
island.
