THEY RODE WELL
IN PAU SKIRTS
The Queens Gay Cavalcade
on the Streets Last
Saturday.

An old-fashioned riding party made
its appearance upon the streets and in
the parks Saturday afternoon, bringing
up "reminiscences of the days of mon
archy when such a sight was not an
uncommon one, and when the King and
Queen rode gaily with the rest. The
cavalcade was made up of about a doz-
en- Hawaiian young men and women,
and it caused keen interest wherever it
went.
The young ladies wore the old-fash-
toned pau skirts of yellow, red and
other bright colors, the ends of which
trailed far below the stirrups. These
riders were astride their mounts, and
when on the gallop the bright colored
cloth streamed far out behind them in
the wind. The young men wore lei
decked cowboy hats, white shirts and
dark trousers, while about their waists
were sashes OF crimson. purple and yell
low, with negligee neckties of the same
colors.
Pau skirt riding is a custom which
has almost died out with the changing
political conditions of Hawaii and is
much to be regretted, as it is g sight
and appeals to the eye, and is, withal a
charming conceit which originated in
the early days of Hawaiis modern his
tory. Time was when almost all people
here who were devoted to horseback
riding affected the pau skirt for the
women and the cavalier-like apparel
for the men. That is the reason why
the Kamaainas all turned out on Sat
urday and wanted to take off their hats
and cheer.

ASKS FOR DIVORCE.
Mrs. Arthur Macondaay Says Her
Husband Was Cruel.

The Honolulu friends Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Arthur Macondray, who came to Ho-
noIulu as bride and groom last year and
Were entertained during their brief stay,
will be startled to learn that after a
short year Of married life they have
decided to separate. At least, Mrs. Ma
condray Cnee Richardson) has so decid-
ed and has filed a suit for divorce
against her husband charging him with
cruelty. There was an insane jealousy
on the part Of the bridegroom which
caused them to disagree ere they had
reached the Orient on their wedding
journey.
Young Macondray took his brioe to

pany, which does a large business. Sud-
denly they returned to San Francisco,
and the gossips found time to tell what
was the cause of their. hurried coming.
Shortly after their arrival young Ma
condray attempted suicide. The families
denied the suicide story AMI alleged
that the accidental discharge of re-
volver was the cause of Macondray's
wound.
The couple were married against the
wishes of Miss Richardson's parents and
repented at leisure.

The costliest log house ever built in
Maine, and probably i'm the world, is
being constructed on Warren's Island,
Gilkey's harbOr. 1t was begun by the
late w. II. FOrwell of Philadelphia,
and Is being completed by his son, Ma
than l.. Forwell. to whom the property
was willed with the provision that 1t
should be finished according to the
plans adopted. 1t will cost nearly $751;
600. The log hut, as some of the neigh
bors call 1t, Is 1OOx1O5 feet, and Is built
Of unpecled spruce timber cut upon the
island. Fred Hunter. an expert log
cabin builder from virginia, Is super.
intending the erection of the building,
and is copying the style that prevailed
In Virginia a century or more ago.
The house will contain twenty-five
sleeping rooms, living hall 3Ox4O
feet. dining room 2Ox3O feet, a kitch-
en- 2Ox25 feet, laundry 2Ox2J feet.
and a storeroom 15x25 feet. There will
he six bay windows and 100 of the or.
binary kind. Many Of the windows
will be fitted with panes of glass 4x5
feet. The roof Is gnbled.
The large living hall is finished with
gilt moulding, and from the windows
one can look across upon the Camden
mountains. famous for their beauty.
This view caused Mr.. Forwell to have
placed above the immense open fire
place large marble tablet with the in.
scriptlon. "IIow beautiful are the

Ernst Hummcl has unluestlonably
demonstrated that he was the best City
Treasurer that Chicago ever had There
Is no doubt that his spotless career In
that capacity and his good record In
every office he ever held will prove the
foundation for still greater advance
ment in the future. Mr.. Hummcl Is u
logical nominee for City Treasurer In
the near future. He Is certainly one OF
the most popular German Americans In
Cook County, and his nomination for
an office Is invariably equivalent to
election.
Ernst Hummcl has been In the brew
cry business most of the time since he
came to Chicago. When a boy he was
apprentlced to Frederick Wackcr. He
earned n reputation as a valuable en-
ployc, and was in demand by other con-
Germs which made beer. His political
life began as a Deputy Sheriff under
Timothy Bradley. lie was then Col.
lcctor Of the North Town. He served
four years as an Alderman. Mr.. Hum
mel was born in Wurtemberg in 1912,
immigrated to Chicago, and landed
here alone. He lives in South Chicago,
and is the junior member Of the brew.

him that he has never been unfaithful
to q trust. He Is a Mason ana member
OF several organizations. On the trips
Of the County Democracy, Mr.. Hummel
