Aye said several voices, FAYE"
"Then I'll wager she does not" said
Wilson, who had drunk more Of the
second than the first bowl of punch,
and was little nettled at the remark
that Mary's affections were engaged.
I'll wager she does not go alone to
the abbey-that is, II 1t does not

There was a loud laugh at the pro-
viso.
'In the first place." said the native

II don't think it worth while making

"The object is charity" said VIII
son, "the money goes to the poor, and
IL she is engaged, as you say, at least
she may not object to wear the silken
gown I'll send her from London"
Wilson was piqued in some way that
he could hardly explain even to him
self. His pride was hurt; and in his
cups he actually began to feel little
resentful towards Mary, as weak peo-
pie sometimes do towards persons they
do not know, but whose praises they
hear sung on all hands.
The wager was made. Old Morley
was summoned. He would give his
consent If the girls could be gained.
Had he no fear for her? Not he, it
was nothing, he said. He was rather
inclined to think the stranger had
been taken in.
This raised little discussion, al
most controversy, almost row, for
the noisiest of the natives insisted
upon constituting Morley's remark into
a reflection upon the honesty of the
men of Kirkstall.
This trouble over, Mary was called
into the room.
Mr.. Taylor, as being the most i'm
portant guest among those whom he
knew, was selected to explain the dis
cussion that had arisen about her.
He was cautioned to do 1t in such a
way as not to let 1t be seen that they
had been talking her over except with
the greatest respect. Mr.. Taylor ac-
quilted himself of the difficult task
with diplomatic skill, and when he
came to the wager. the whole room
hung on her words and looked at Mary
for her reply.

in his squeaking voice. Some day."

a more costly system of rule than they

Additional cost has ever been the ar
gument offered by those opposed to the
decentralization of our government, yet
they have yet to show where the in
creased cost will come in. In a gen
eral way a vague or indirect reference
is made to the manipulatlons of the

is pictured as the machinery of corrup-

1t appear that the present Territorial
expense will continue and a municipal
government means just so much more

II the original premise stated by
these opponents were true their con-

government finds its chief
motive power in the circles of political
grafters. II Is not true that municipal
government foreshadows the running
of the present Territorial machinery
full blast and more local self govern
ment' machinery piled on top of it.
The Advertiser knows this. Every
man in the Territory who has given tho
least thought to the question knows it.
County and municipal government
means the transfer Of public business,
now centered in the capitol building al
Honolulu to the Several towns, cities
and districts of the Islands. 1t means
the displacement of bulky and unwieldy
and therefore incompetent machinery
by a system capable of prompt action
and not forever dependent upon lack
of foresight of Legislature thai
meets biennially or subject to the
shortcomings of possible incompetent
Territorial Legislature.
In support of continuation of pres
ent conditions it is claimed that oul
present government is honest and com
petent. Admitting the honesty, tn,
competence is not to be found. Tht
actual incompetency is in evidence here
In Honolulu today. Had this city al

Under the present system Of govern
ment, the taxpayer does not get valu

A team driven by Sam Warren, who
lives about five miles out of town, took
fright last Saturday and went tearing
down Miner street. The driver held to
the lines and succeeded in keeping in the
middle of the road. AS the bridge was
crossed, down by the Cliff house, case
of eggs in the wagon were thrown out
and the hen product was destroyed. The
horses then run into buggy standing on
the opposite side, upturning that vehicle.
after which the animals stopped. No

BEFORE THE MAGISTRATE.
Fourteen Young Boys Receive Lecture
From Judge Whiting.

There was weeping and wailing heard
in many of the homes of the city last
Saturday night. All due to the fact that
there was a spanking bee in operation,
and fourteen young boys, made the prin-
cipal part of the noise.
In the afternoon Justice Whiting had
arraigned before him fourteen young
boys, each being charged with malicious
mischief They were placed under arrest
Thursday by Marshal O'Rourke upon
complaint of Mr.. Passmore, who accused
them with having broken into the mill at
the State Ore Sampling company and
destroying property.
The court room was crowded by small
BOYS, their parents and little sisters, who
came as friends in need.
Attorney Regenitter appeared as coun-
sci for the accused. and no sooner had
they been arraigned than he ma de a mo-
ton for dismissal on the grounds that
Justice Whiting did not have jurisdiction.
He substantiated his motion by citing
the necessary legal authorities, and the
point was not contested by Deputy Dis
trict Attorney Smith.
In dismissing the cases Justice Whiting
proceeded to score the parents of the
youngsters, informing them that they
were responsible to certain extent for
the maliciousness displayed by their off
spring. "In dismissing these cases" " said
Justice Whiting, ''it appears to me that
the parents are largely responsible for the
actions of their children. They seem
ingly do not care where the boys are at
night, and allow them to run at large.
They owe duty first to themselves, and
second to the community, not to mention
the fact that their children need looking
after at their present ages. l would sug-
gest that this evening you take these boys
out and give them a reminder of their
folly. The people of Idaho Springs do
not intend to have their property de-
stroyed, and the sooner you look after
your offspring the better off you will be. "
-Four of the boys were under the age
for being tried. They were Lynn Clark,
Ed and John Phillips and Henry Young.
The last named is only six years old.
District Attorney Smith says that he
will, as soon as he makes an investiga-
ton, file informations in the county court
at Georgetown, charging them with be-
ing incorrigible. Some of the boys it is
thought, are not mixed in the trouble,
and in this case they will escape being
tried. Others have been arrested before,
and it is said two or three have been al
lowed to remain at home, pending good
behavior.
