Composition Of MEETING.

Mr.. Cooper, on the cessation of ap-
plause at the conclusion of Commits
sioner General Barrett's address, said:
ut seems to me that we should not let
this opportunity pass without availing
ourselves Of such a favorable moment
to form an organization. This is a
splendid meeting and would suggest
that you organize by appointing a
president and secretary. | hope that
this sentiment meets with your appro-
val.
WA Bowen was the first in the as
sembly to rise, saying: at occurs TO
me that while we do at present feel
the force OF the speakers eloquence and
do catch some Of his enthusiasm, the

YACHT CLUB BYLAWS

A meeting of the stockholders Of the
Hawaii Yacht Club was held yesterday
afternoon and the new set Of bylaws
adopted. There were practically no
changes from the old bylaws except
those necessltated by the change in the
constitution of the club from an asso-
citation to a corporation. II was decid-
ed to issue a manual containing the by.
laws, measurements OF yachts, racing
rules, charter OF the club and half
tones of the yachts. At yesterday
meeting, lO6 out OF 200 shares wer,
represented.

think it would be quite right for us
this afternoon to leave the matter with
the organization in question | would
therefore move that this matter be at
once placed before the Chamber OF
Commerce and the Merchants AssoCia-
| tion."
Representative Dickey seconded the
motion.
Mr.. Cooke did not quite agree with
the mover. The Chamber of Commerce
and the Merchants Association mostly
consisted of the same members. There
was another organization. the Hawa-
iian Planters Association, and all
should act In cooperation with the
government. Il think that something
| should be done at this meeting" Mr..
Cooke concluded; that we should go
on with some sort of organization such
as electing a chairman and secretary"
Mr.. Bowen disclaimed having had
any intention of cutting OFF the ex-
preston of Views.
Mr.. Cooper said il was a splendid
meeting. there being men present rep
resenting every industry. 1t was fine
opportunity to start the ball rolling
now, with a temporary chairman and
secretary perhaps. "Mr. Dillingham;,
would like to hear a word from you"
Mr.. Dillingham;, though believing II
was well not to defer anything that
ought to be done, thought 1t would be
wise to canvass the matter carefully
| and choose the right men. He rather
favored the motion but suggested that
committe OF the different organiza-
tons take the matter up, and each body
appoint committees to report back.
Mr.. Cooper explained that his idea
was only to appoint committee on or
ganization to take up the work
Mr., Schaefer was inclined to endorse
the motion Of Mr.. Bowen. Those rep
resentative bodies would advise about
the matter. He was simply in favor OF
the motion.
Mr.. Cleghorn favored the motion,
thinking nothing should be done in a
hasty manner.
| Mr.. Dillingham; suggested that the
chairman of this meeting be appointed
temporary chairman OF organization
and that he choose men to act with
him.
Mr.. Cooper said he would prefer that
the temporary chairman come from
among their own number.
Mr.. Spencer moved an amendment to
include the Hawaiian Planters Asso-
citation.
Mr.. Atherton thought the suggestion
of Mr.. Dillingham; a good one. II the
chairman would accept the chairman
ship of committee to bring this mat
ter before the three bodies already
named, the matter would be put in such
shape that they could act without any
delay
Messrs. Bowen and Dickey with
drew the motion in favor of Mr.. Dill

made the motion with Mr.. Athertons
seconding.

Hawaii's Direct Advantage

3. What will be the direct advantage
to Hawaii Is next to be noted. The st.
Louis Worlds Fair will give Hawaii
her first opportunity under the new
regime of annexation to show herself
to the rest of the United States in her
true light. 1t will enable her to con-
vince the people OF the great central
portion of the United States, and
through them their Senators and Con-
gressmen, that her growing material
and political interests must be recog-
nized and safe-guarded in the legisla-
ton of Congress. A comprehensive
and creditable exhibit of Hawaii will
be described and pictured by the press
of the entire United States
On the other hand, II Hawaii is not
represented at all, or in limited way,
adverse comment will be excited and
unfavorable comparisons will be made
with other States, Territories and out
lying possessions, that will surely re-
act to her disadvantage. Were this
exposition merely sectional, or limit
ed in plan and scope, with only few
States and countries taking part, the
absence of Hawaii, or the presence OF
a small exhibit, would not be particu-
larry noticed. On the other hand, in
view of the undoubted magnitude OF
the undertaking, Hawaii must be there
and In such a way as is commensurate
with her wealth and with her growing
Importance as a magic land OF the mid,
Pacific.

The Vaudeville Shows.

4. Assuming now that Hawaii will bo
represented at st. Louis by an exhibit
OF which she can be proud, we can
consider some of its features. Let me
emphasize here that 1t is the announced
determination of the Louisiana Pur-
chase Exposition management that
discredltable. low-class vaudeville and
spectacular effects shall not be allowed
place within the limits of this Worlds
Fair. 1t is its acknowledged intention
to avoid those unfortunate character.
istics which have been so prominent in
other expositions. In other words, we
want Hawaii to bee seen, studied, and
admired at st. Louis in her legitimate
exhibits, rather than made an agent
for theatrical amusement In the form
of hula-hula dances.

fourth climbed a ladder over twenty feet
high and after posing herself on a small
platform for an instant sprang into

half score OF dogs.
The brains of these cats are the most
wonderful that have ever found in Felis
Domestica, or the common house cat"
said DR.. Capen.
Intellectual development is the result
Of meeting and overcoming difficulties
The necessity of thinking how to provide
food avoid danger and secure warmth
makes the wild animal as a rule far more
intelligent than the domestic animal
which has all these necessities provided
by a human master.
But IN these cats another form Of brain
development has resulted from their train
ing. Their memory is inordinately large
and their perceptive faculties are IN
usually great.
There is no more conceited and vain
animal living than the cat, and in order 70
educate these specimens it was necessary
TO appeal to those passions. Is 1t not so?'
Yes" replied Coleman, only kind
words and gentleness viii teach a cat
anything. With dogs 1t is different There
you must have discipline. O.. the dog viii

Of individuality. Another curious develop
ment is the large size OF the organ Of
calculation, which lies at the outer corner
OF the eye.
Eventually and comparison, which
occupy the centre Of the forehead. are
also extremely well developed. On the
other hand, the back OF the skulls Is
extremely narrow, showing lack OF all
domestic traits. Amativeness, philopFo-
geHitiveness and all the organs which
tend toward devotion to home and family
are almost wanting. These cats do not
perform their tricks Or love Of their mas
ter, but rather because they feel nat
tered by their masters devotion
Briefly put. may say that the amlable
prOpensities are small the selfish senti-
ments are large, the perceptive faculties
unusually well developed. and the reflec-
tive faculties above the normal
"AI these cats have definitely formed
characters and can be counted on to act in
a given way under given circumstances.
The conformation of the skulls shows def
nitely that this is so"

IS the secret Of Mr.. Goleman's power over
these dumb beasts.
Simply because they cannot talk we
call them stupid. but as a matter Of fact
they are mighty clever beasts and make
US do most Of their work for them. Do
you remember what Montague said about
this subject? He remarks in one Of his
essays: When you are having a romp
with cat and are laughing at its funny
capers, rest assured that it is laughing
at and enjoying yours.

These cats, selected when very young
and put through a course of training that
has lasted in some cases for years, have
brains that are developed far beyond the
normal. To speak OF them as abnormal
is incorrect, but through active use of the
natural talent these cats are able to think
more clearly and recollect more distinctly
than the ordinary animal

performance Of these cats at local the
