Out & About

One said "Lo, I would walk hand
clasped with thee
Adown the ways of joy and sunlit
slopes
OF earthly song, in happiest vagrancy,
To pluck the blossom of thousand
hopes
Let us together drain the wide world s
cup
With gladness brimmed up
And one said, Il would pray to- go with
thee
When sorrow claims thee; I would
fence thy heart
With mine against all anguish-I
would be
The comforter and healer of thy smart;
And I would count it all the wide
worlds gain
To spare or share thy paini'

The polka dot is worn a great deal,
white chiffon being embroidered with
black dots and black chiffon with white.
Still newer than the polka dots are

fashionable veilings embroidered with
open diamond shapes. Black wells with

A BAD ADVERTISEMENT.

A gentleman asks the Advertiser to
say more about the travesty on Ha-
yaiian civilization which has become
a Midway feature of the Pan-Ameri-
can fair, IT went to the Omaha show,
he says, "and was naturally anxious
to see what Hawaii was doing for her
self On arriving at the island section
heard a spieler say that he would eX-
hibit man-eating native of Hawaii,
and out came a dark fellow in tights
and a lurid skirt, his face gotten up In
to some hideous disguise. Don't be
afraid, ladies and gentlemen said the
spieler reassuringly. He is more scared
than you are. He never saw the likes
OF you before Step right in and see
more of these savage people engaged in
their barbarous pastimes.' I went in
and saw a disgusting hula. My friends
In the East, many of whom saw the
performance, wonder why 1 cared to
live among such creatures, evidently
supposing that the great majority of
the people here dress in grass aprons or
tights and amuse themselves with ami
NAL orgies"
1t is both disgrace and a. mis-
fortune to Hawaii that nothing can
be done to protect the fame of our is
land people from the effect of savage
and sensual exhibitions given in their
names Offsets can be used. and one
has been set up at Buffalo in the form
of a school exhibit; but the trouble is
that vastly more people go to fair to
be amused than instructed; and thous-
ands who see the Midway show will not
go near the school exhibit. They might,
however. go gladly to a stereopticon
display of Hawaii which. as we nave
said before. would do more to counter
act the influence of the Midway than
any other form of entertainment. 1t
Is a pity that one is not being made.

AALA PARK AND ITS NEEDS.

| One of the greatest needs of all the
public breathing spaces Is that for the
Improvement of the Aala or River Park.
This plot of ground, eva of Nuuanu
stream, since having been set aside by
the Legislature two years ago, has re-
ceived nothing in the way of improve
ment. II is desolate spot, its surface
now dust and now mud, and for the
purpose for which 1t was intended. as
useless as though it was not in exist
ence.
Since the destruction of the Royal
School buildings the old quarantine
warehouse has been utilized for the pu-
pills. 1t is not an ideal school house,
rather mere makeshift. 1t had to be
used and 1t will continue in service for
some time. Meanwhile the only play
ground offered to the children who are
instructed there Is the waste which
was intended to be a park. In its dust
and mud they must play. for they can
not get their needed exercise in the
busy street. They romp over its filthy
surface; the wind sweeps its dust and
CRIME upon them, and they carry away
with them the germs of no one knows
how many ailments.
At the best this refuse strewn stretch
is unsightly; at the worst 1t is a breed
ing ground for disease. The sun bakes
its surface and the wind distributes the
bacilll where 1t listeth and no one
knows the fruits OF such seed. This, too.
when the conditions might be remeded
so readily.
The assigned reason for failure to inn
prove the appearance of the park is the
lack OF appropriation. In the estimates
of the Governor, as submitted 10 the
Legislature, the appropriation appears
coupled with that for Makiki Park and
the addition Of the word NEW" the
amount set down at 5000.
But there Ia way out OF the diem
ma, "A plan which would mean the al
most immediate reclamation OF the

Among the startling engineering sug-
gestions of the day is that of a tube
railway to the North Pole-not as a
commercial venture, but as a scientific
solution of a difficult problem regard
less of cost. Starting from some point
in Greenland. the tunnel would run In
a direct line just beneath the surface
of the ground. and would have stations
at certain intervals, with larger ones
on the banks of channels or straits,
where 1t would be necessary to build
ferry boats and provide for their hous-
Ing In winter. With the completed line
the summer explorer should be able to
reach the Pole and return within a
week. The motive power would be
electricity, but we are not told how
this would be obtained. In case OF ac-
cident, the traveller would propel him
self homeward by manual labor.

While there are some districts on

quite what growers and consumers de-

districts the trouble is perhaps, one OF
cultivation. From the general adapta-
bilitv OF Porto Rico TO cofree-a place OF
similar climate and soil and nearly the
same latitude as Hawaii-it may be In
ferred that the area OF coffee growing
land here would prove to be much larg-
err than experiments have yet determ-
lned Time was when the limit OF cane
growing possibilities was fixed at 90
900 tons per annum. II now exceeds
300 0O0 tons. a duty on coffee by slim

equally surprising ratio.
We think the duty will come. Ha-

part of the Union instead of possessions
thereof will have to be given the bene-
fit of duty on coffee, not only az

chances seem very good indeed that,
before very long, those who have stood
by coffee in Hawaii will be rewarded
for their patience.

IS 1T ONLY A LEADER

IL is timely to consider the effect
which has been produced on the minds
of men accustomed TO weigh public
events by the continuous vaudeville
performance given at the Executive
Building and Bungalow under the joint
stage management OF America J.
Emmeluth and "Oily Bill" White. The
view of thoughtful men here Is known;
one hears the chorus Of condemnation
on all sides. The effort of the per
formers to answer to a feeble call for
the curtain. excited the risibles as well
as the pity. of all who were conversant
with American methods.
Accustomed to consider national af-
fairs with an eye gagged for long dis
tances as well as for microscopic in
vestigation, the newspaper writer Of the
national capital brings to his analysis
a familiarit with governmental
metods and results which gives to his
conclusion something of authority
With these facts known the following
editorial from the Washington Star
will be read with interest:
1t appears from recent comments by
the Honolulu press that the Home Rule
party has disintegrated and Is no lon
ger a serious factor in the situation. But
unfortunately the freak session tended
as well to demoraliZe the Republican OPP
position, so that the adjournment of the
Legislature seems to have left chaotic
state of politics for the next campaign to
resolve into a semblance of order.
The mail dispatches announce that the
Governor refused to extend the regular
session of the Legislature, which mas
been utterly wasted on futile attempts
at bill-passing. The appropriations re-
main to he passed, and the Governor
may call an extra session for this specLic
purpose later. The chief cause of trouble
during the regular session was that each
member seemed to think the body had
been created solely to permit him to en-
act some nonsensical idea into law. Some
of the propositions, on which The star
has already commented, were almost be
yond credence. There was an inordinate
amount of wrangling over personalities,
whole DAYS being consumed with debates
upon items of precedence while the
Royalists lost no opportunity to make
capital for the lost regime. ON the
whole, however, the session was prob
ably wholesome experience, for 1t at
least demonstrated that the unaided. I'M
controlled native Hawaiians, spurred on
by ignorant demagogues, are not ready
to assume the responsibility of legisia-
ton and government, and at the same
time IL may have been valuable oo)ect
lesson in showing what to avoid in the
drawing of party lines in future cam
paigns, It is evident that the Home Rule
native party. unless 1t gains Leader OF
commanding force and determined pnr-
pose will never be dominant factor in
Hawaiian politics.

not approve of the theater myself. but I
would like to ask small favor of you.
l am a lady who has seen better days.
but with Gods help and your assistance

daughters. The eldest died two years
ago and ever since / have been most
anxious to have her grave sodded. Won't
you please sod her grave for me, my
dear Mr.. Fitch? My second daughter
could make very good marriage IL you
would only send her $500 with which to
buy her trousseau. My third daughter
has beautiful voice. The doctor says
1t cannot be properly trained for less
than $3.50. In short, dear Mr.. Fitch. send
me a check for $500. and just see what
an amount of good you will be doing in
the world. My daughters grave will be
sodded. my second girl will be made a
loving wife, and my baby will have a
voice to earn money for her mother with;
and I shall still have enough OF your
money left to hire a second hand piano.
Be sure and send the money by register
