 There Is no more fruitful source of absolute and unqualified discomfort than the iounging habit to which so many women of indolent tendencies are Addicted.

 The ideal hrsband will stand first of all for the freedom of the wife He will provide that marriage shall place upon her no more restrictions than 1t imposes upon him. He will treat her always as his equal in every respect, as his beloved companion, his nearest and best friend. He will make his personal life as clean and pure as he desires hers 10 be. As his ideal motherhood is the one which he would have his daughters Initiate. so he will embody in himself a fatherhood which shall be the standard for his sons.

MORE MEN FOR KITCHENER
FIVE THOUSAND YEOMANRY
VOLUNTEERS.
Severe Engagements in South Africa.
Refugee Camps Established-Com-
mandos Joining De Wet to the South.

LONDON, January 16.-The Govern
ment has decided to send large re-en-
forcements to Lord Kitchener, and the
War Office, in carrying out this deci-
sion, has determined to enlist 5000 yeo-
manry volunteers. At a meeting held
at the War Office this afternoon this
plan and others for securing more men
were discussed and approved, and 1t is
understood that the Government Will in
the course of day of two issue a com
munique on the subject.
The casualty list shows that there has
been a severe engagement, with a loss
of six killed, seventeen wounded and
five missing at Murraysburg, where the
Dutch are said to have been Joining the
invaders. Murraysburg is sixteen miles
west of Graafreinet.
Indications are not wanting that the
decision of the Government to send
re-enforcements has not been taken a
moment too soon. Colonel Colvile's
mobile column, which has been pur-
suing the Beers, has been obliged to
rest at Greylingstad to erect a block
house and to cease operations until re-
enforced by mounted troops. General
Paget has taken his force to Pretoria
to refit. Many of the men are suffer
ing for enteric fever. Three hundred
Beers captured a small British con-
voy at Bronkhurst Spruit, near Pre-
toria, but made off after liberating the
prisoners.
General Brabant, while addressing a
conference of Mayors at Cape Town,
said the authorities were anxious to
keep the war away from Cape Town
if possible, but that the only hope OF
doing this lay in sending 10000 men tC
the front. He urged that no precau-
| tion should be omitted to prevent the
enemy from advancing further south.

HOT TINE At WAIKIKI
HOW All HOY GOT HIS BIG BLACK
EYE.
Kamuha's Exciting Search in the Dark
for Burglars and the Thrilling Result
Six Months Hard Labor.

All Hoy, the Chinaman who appeared
in court yesterday with a huge black
eye, and charged with being on the
premises of another at night without
lawful excuse, was sentenced this
morning by Judge Wilcox to six
months hard labor. Kamuha, the
complaining witness, told a very eX-
citing story that explained how the
Mongolian received his injury. 1t ap-
peared that All Hoy had broken into
Kamuha's house at Waikiki at mid
night, and that there was a very lively
fight in the dark.
Kamuha said that All Hoy came to
his place early in the evening last Sun
day, and gave him some bananas. Then
he went away and Kamuha and his
family retired. Shortly after he went
to sleep Kamuha thought he heard
footsteps. At first he thought it might
be his daughter, who slept in an ad-
joining room. The house was very
dark, but Kamuha got out of bed and
started to feel his way about the rooms
This exciting midnight search for in
truders was suddenly brought to a
thrilling end when Kamuha bumped
against the form of a man. The ma
tive leaped forward with a yell and a
rough and tumble fight began, while
Kamuha shouted to his wife to get q
light. The Chinaman put up a gOoC
fight, and the light was slow in com
ing, so it was some time before Ka-
muha knew whom he was up against

FROM LAND AGENT BROWN
INTERVIEW WITH SECRETARY
HITCHCOCK.
Informed That Ruling of December is
Final-Land Matter Settled for Good
and All.

Word has come from Land Agent j.
F. Brown, at Washington, that the land
question has been finally disposed of
by the recent ruling of Secretary
Hitchcock, declaring that the Hawaiian
government is the custodian of all pub
lie lands in Hawaii.
This information was impaired to Mr..
Brown on January 2, the day after he
arrived in Washington.
The Hawaiian official was also in
formed that Mr.. Baird's correspond
.ence and opinion had been returned
to the Attorney General, it belonging to
that office.
Mr.. Brown said nothing about re-
turning. 1t is presumed, however, that
he will get back earlier than was at
first anticipated. His trip has been a
failure to the extent that the main
matter was settled before he reached
Washington, but there are numerous
other things to be Strengthened out
with the department for future guild
ance. 1t was presumed by Mr.. Brown
that when he got through with all of
his business in Washington there would
never be any question in future as to
the procedure in any case, involving
government condemnation or any other
question in relation to public land.
'The land matter is now unqueStion-
ably settled" said Governor Dole this
morning" The matter was settled by
the instructions from the Interior De-
partment, approving the Territorial
governments position, and the adVices
from Mr.. Brown confirm the ruling
Though l am not sure that some turn
of events might upset arrangements,
feel sure that everything will now run
along smoothly and satisfactorily

WAS DRIVEN 70 SUICIDE
ONE OF THE DELUDED PORTO
RICANs SEEKS HER LIFE.
Was Induced by Malev olence of Ex-
Became Ill and Despondent.

SALINAS, January 15.-Dolores Mar
tel, a young Porto Rico woman living
on the ranch of Robert S. Johnson in
Monterey, attempted suicide this even
ing by taking poison. The young wo-
man was one of those who recently left
a party of Porto Rico laborers on the
way to the Hawaiian Islands. She
and her husband were sent to john
sons ranch, where she has been dis
contented and homesick and has brood
ed over the separation from others OF
her race. She was in delicate health
and was fearful that her people would
not know of her present situation.
This evening she obtained some
strychnne from some sheepmen and
swallowed a large quantity. After let
ting her husband know what she had
done, she lay down and composed her
self for death. Word was sent to the
city for medical assistance. Physicians
hurried to her aid and may succeed in
saving her life.
The young woman was only 16 years
old, and has been married about nine
months.
RENO New, January 1.-two car
loads of Porto Ricans are sidetracked
at Wadsworth tonight and no one is
allowed to approach the cars. 1t is the
intention of the Southern Pacific Com
pany to rush them through early in the
morning, so that they will reach San
Francisco just before the hour at which
the Hawaiian steamer will sail. This
is the policy that has been pursued by
the company twice before in dealing
with Porto Ricans destined for the
plantations of the Hawaiian Islands,
