THAT BRUMBY MONUMENT.

Apropos Of monuments erected bv

movement started in Atlanta not long

Tom Brumby, of Georgia, but as yet
we have not read the announcement
that the monument had been erected
or that the subscription list has been
completed. It seems to have gone the

LAND STILL FREE.

When every other source of wealth

greatest of all sources of wealth, be
taken in hand to pile the millions still

any way to prevent this dire consum-
nation? None that We can see. In

TO RECLAIM FRIDAY,

NS4tfSM
New York has departed from the
practice of making Friday hangman's
day, and President MeK1nley's assassin
is sentenced to die on Monday, Octo-
be7 28th. We commend this course to
the superior court judges in Georgia.
The suppositon that Friday is an IN
lucky day has largely grown out of the
idea that it was set apart as hang
mans day. There is no more reason
why man should be hanged on Friday
than any other day in the week, and
there is a reason why no day in the
week should be fixed in the minds of
the people as one unworthy for the IN
auguration of desirable enterprise.
Many people will not begin a journey
or an important undertaking on Friday
This is matter of superstition which
has resulted to considerable degree
from the association of Friday with
hangman's day. The idea cannot be
erased in a short time, but there is no
reason why the good work should not
be inaugurated at once, In this busy
age, we have no day in The week that

POLICE CAPTAINS
SON ASSAULTED
Holi was Held up and r ,bbed
at kewalo on sunday
Night.

James Holi, a son of Captain Holi.
of the police force. was brutally beaten
and robbed about $3.50 o'clock on Sun
day night at Kewalo.
Holi had been playing craps. and
when he had won s25, started home
wards. When on Queen street near the
Sanitary laundry he was accosted by
two men who hit him in the face.
threw him down and kicked him, at
the same time relieving him of SIS In
silver.
The victim of the assault thinks tina,
he was hit with brass .'knuckle
duster." and says that he can identify
his assistants, whom, he declares, were
natives
Kewalo is rapidly acquiring the rep
utation of being a tough neighbor-
hood. Two or three crap games are
run full blast on the sidewalk every
Sunday afternoon, and after sunset a
lantern is brought into requisition. The
inhabitants manufacture .swipes' for
family consumption, and the result is
that drunken brawis and nights are
frequent, and that the lower end OF
Queen street is practically unsafe for
pedestrians after dark.

Every morning about 8 o'clock a blind

So regular are the pair in passing
certain points that their coming has
come to be looked for as a regular

The mans name is Kakaio and five
years ago he was one of the most regu-
lar attendants at the police court mat
inees. He had at that time only one
eye. Continued indulgence in strong
drink caused him to become totally
blind but effected a complete reform
as far as the mans bibulous propen-
sites were concerned.
Since losing his eyesight he has re-

done he is led back to his home by his

energetically into the stove, and the fire
bIazed up with flare that sent little

Her eyes ached. as she stirred the

ladled out smoking gravy and steaming
joints. The men, fresh from the broad,
dusty sunshine. hurried quickly through
the sitting kitchen, almost catching
their breath as they went. Filing past.
rolling down their shirt sleeves as they
came in one by one from the basin by
the door, they filled the room with a
breath Of machine oil and perspiration,

and potato on their knife blades.
