Predict an Open Winter,

The farmers are not worrying about
the rise in the price of coal nor are
they looking we'll to their woodplles.
They are sure the winter is going to
be mild and that precautions against
extreme cold will be unnecessary.
These predictions are based on the
fact that the hornets are building their
nests close to the ground. Old farm
ers say this is never failing sign OF a
warm winter with little or no snow.
When the nests are built only on
stout trees, high from the ground and
close to the trunk, then the following
winter will be rough one and there
will be plenty of snow.

Don't Worry About the Editor.

What an exaggeration what a

a newspaper. 1t is run without money.
1t is not business venture. 1t is a

The Antitrust League is trying to
reach Attorney-General Knox and
bring charges against the big steel
corporation, which it wants prosecuted
under the Sherman act. Thus far Mr..
Knox has calmly ignored the whole
business. The committee of the
League has not even been able to see
him. His law partner is director Of
the billion dollar corporation, and that,
or something else, makes him feel
very secure.

WILL CHANGE TIME
LINERS TO ARRIVE IN
MORNING.
Orders Given Nippon Maru Officers
To Economize on Coal and Not to
Run Ahead of Schedule.

A new order has been issued to mas
ters of the Togo Kisen Kaisha fleet. In
future, so 1t is said, the fast Japanese
liners will be run strictly to schedule
time. Heretofore, the Japanese boats
have been as punctual as clock work
beating their schedule time by a day.
Although the vessels might not be due
until a certain morning they invari-
ably got into this port, any where from
IL to Is hours ahead of time. This
schedule was maintained on both trips,
from San Francisco and Yokohama,
whether the weather was good or not.
The failure of the Nippon Maru to
arrive here Monday afternoon from the
Orient, caused a big surprise, in con-
sequence. She encountered very rough
weather but it is doubtful if Captain
Greene would have gotten his boat into
Honolulu much before he did, as orders
have been issued by the managers of
the line, 1t Is understood, to econOmize
on coal and not try to run ahead Of
schedule time.
This means that instead of the YES
sells getting here i'm the afternoon they
viii arrive in the morning. Just when
this new order is to go into effect is
not known, but it is likely to be fol-
lowed by the Nippon Maru on her re-
turn from San Francisco next month.
II is possible however, that the boats
may not be restricted to schedule time
coming from the Orient as they always
have big cargoes and can not afford to
lose time in discharging them here.

THE DRAMA.

The American sense of humor and
perhaps American perseverance could
not leave such promising material for
fantastic comedy as the legend of Pyg-
malion and Galatea untouched. Hence
the comedy of "Niobe" presented by
the Neill company at the Opera House.
But 1t is a pleasing, not to say whole
some, laughter provoking comedy, and
in the hands of the Neill company it
was given with such refreshing sin
cerity and capability of purpose that it
was most delightful.
The story of the comedy is that
"Niobe," Queen of Memphis was turn
ed to stone some three thousand years,
or so, ago. AS supposed statue of
great antiquarian value she falls into
the hands of Jefferson Tompkins,"
Frank MacVicars an erudite antiquar-
ian, who, with up-to- date business sa-
gacity has it insured, the insurer being
Peter Amos Dunn" Mr.. Neill, who
likewise has modern business acumen,
in pronounced quantity and quality.
While his liability as insurer still ex-
lists and pending the delivery of the
statue to its owner, it is placed in
Peter Amos Dunn's" New York city
residence. The electric wiring of the
house is being oVerhauled and one of
the wires comes in contact with the
statues foot The result of this is a
reawakening of "Niobe." She comes to
life one evening while all the family
except Peter Amos Dunn" are at the
theater. Then the complications begin
Hard headed man of business that
Peter Amos Dunn is, he knows that
no one will believe the truth, and par
ticularly that his sister-in-law, Helen
Griffin Lillian Andrews, who rules the
household with the rod of a mother in
law, will not believe it. Peter is there
fore put to the straits that any unim-
aginative man would be, to account for
the presence in the house of this wo-
man. He first represents her as the eX-
pected new governess, piling complica-
| ton on complication till this fabrica-
| ten is exposed, and then as his sister
whom his wife's family has never seen
until confusion is worse confounded AT
| the last the antiquarian Jefferson
| Tompkins" is told the truth, believes
it, falls in love with "Niobe" and she
with him, and all ends happily.
Miss Edythe Chapman as "Niobe" is
| simply delicious. 1t seems as if the
| character is one that is the very COM
plement of her capabilities, only every
character she essays seems that, SC
richly endowed with graces and capa.
bilities is she.
Mr.. Neill is a delightful Peter Amos
Dunn" and nothing could be more de.
licious than the scenes where the patri-
clan "Niobe" awakened from a sleep o.
three thousand years is face to face
with the modern business man under
such unusual circumstances.
The characters throughout were wei
balanced. 1t was delicate, delightful
comedy.

IT IS A CASE OF NERVE
STRANGE RESULT OF A DIVORCE
SUIT.
The Respondent Turns About ana
Brings an Action for the Wife's
Board.

The amazing nerve of one John
Stephenson, a Jamaica negro. is the
subject of comment around the Judi
ciary building. Stephenson was named
as correspondent in a divorce suit
brought by John de Greaves against
Caroline de Greaves. 1t was alleged
that the woman had been living with
Stephenson. Stephenson took the stand
and cheerfully admitted the fact. and
then he brought suit against the hus-
band for the wife's board, lodging,
washing, etc.
1T beats anything l ever head Of"
said McCants Stewart upon whom the
papers were served, as attorney for de
Greaves. They steal our wife and live
with her for years and then when we
ask for divorce, they ask us to pay
for boarding the women. l never heard
of such a case before"
The de Greaves have been in court
before. Two years ago the wife brought
suit for divorce and lost it. Now the
husband is suing, on the ground OF
adultery.
The negro John Stephenson took the
stand all smiles, and admitted that he
had been living with Mrs. de Greaves.
He appeared proud of his role and said
that the woman wanted to live with
him and her husband didn't want her,
and he thought it was all right. Now
he asks damages, in complaint as fol-
lows:
THAT for a period of six years the
plaintiff has at the instance and re-
quest of the defendant and in Homo
lulu, furnished Caroline De Greaves
(wife of John De Greaves) with board,
lodging, washing and necessary cloth
ing, the reasonable value and cost of
which amount to the sum of $4,000, in
which sum defendant is indebted to
plaintiff therefor.
THAT during all said years the de-
PENDANT neglected and refused to sup
ply said Caroline De Greaves with the
common necessaries of life, although
abundantly able so to do, and that this
plaintiff supplied the same as afore-
said at a cost to plaintiff of $4,000.
Wherefor plaintiff demands Judgment
against defendant in the sum of $1,000
and COSTS"

THE ENEMIES OF FASHION.

Between the artists and the political
economists fashion has really hard
time of it. The artists declare that
fashion is a foe to their profession, and
while they are worshiping the Winged
Victory type of figure the modern
fashionable ideal is pinched and pad
ded creature that might from an ar
tistic standpoint, be called Whale
boned Defeat.
The political economists go even
further and declare woman's dress not
only ugly but costly and impractical
and Professor Veblen in his Theory of
the Leisure Glass" states: THE high
heel, the skirt. the impracticable bon
net. the corset, and the general disre-
gard of the wearer's comfort which is
an obvious feature of all civilized
womens apparel, are so many items
of evidence to the effect that in the
modern civilized scheme of life tho
woman is still in theory the economic
dependent of the man-that perhaps
in a highly idealized sense she still is
the mans chattel."

SUPERIOR TECHNICAL TRAINING.

No nation in the world except the
United States has developed indus
trially more rapidly than Germany.
The empire. organized only thirty
years ago. has become n great manu-
featuring nation, has forced its way
into European. Asiatic and South AM
erican markets against the competi-
ton of England and the United States.
and is fighting resolutely for new ter
ritory. With the growth of a strong
national sentiment. there has been
astonishing progress in all the depart
ments of industry where trained in
telligence and skilled hands play an
important part.
Manufacturers of the United States,
of Great Britain and of France have
inquired into the causes of this rapid
progress in Germany. They agree that
it is largely due to superior technical
education. When the empire was es-
tablished in 1871. the general govern
ment found ready to its hand the tech
nical schools that had been fostered
by the several German states. Under
the policy of the empire all of these
were encouraged, and from them was
developed system of higher technical
schools.
