FOUND. A LESSON

Today a little girl, Mary Aylett by
name. is probably wondering what be-
came Of her lesson which she did at
home yesterday and took SO much
pains to write nicely. II is a compo-
sition on tapa written in a fair round
hand on a nice clean piece OF paper.
II was picked up in front OF the Bulle-
tin office this morning and a true copy
Of II follows:
Mary Aylett. Dec. &c, 'O2
The pau-pau is a quilt when you
first make a quilt you must cut the
bark of certain tree then take II and
pound it very hard. Pound It every
day for week, then dry 1t out for two
or three days. After Il is dried pound
II again for three days and then dried
again. Three times you must do this
After 1t is done they take this down
to the sea and spread II over a stone
then pound II and putting some sea
water on II they lay this quilt between
some stones so the sea will not wash
Il away. For three weeks they take Il
out and they they will put some sweet
odor on II and then dried II out. When
this Is done they take Il and use 1t.
A tapa beater are made of wood and
some are made of stone. Some tapa
beaten has many designs on them
This is also use for pounding the pau
pau. The round tapa beater are used
for pounding the bark and the tapa
heater which has many designs on
them are used when the Guilt is done
TO make designs on them. ~

REFORM Of CURRENCY
10
HANNA SAYS STRENGTHEN
The GOLD STANDARD Law
GREATER ELASTICITY FOR MA.
TloNAL BANK CURRENCY.
EXPANSION IN KEEPING
WITH TRADE.

Indianapolis, Ind. Dec. 6.-"What
further steps should be taken at this
time for the betterment of our none
tary SYSTEM" Mr.. Hugh II. Hanna
was asked today.
First" he replied. Our. gold stand
ard law OF 1900 should be STRENGTHENED
by machinery for maintaining parity
between gold and silver. The public
mind is prepared for as perfect gold
standard as can be established. A law
providing for the payment OF gold for
silver at the treasury on demand Is
the one remaining step necessary to Sc
cure absolute parity of all our moneys.
Both the overstreet bill ANA the Hill
bill, introduced in the last session,
make full and wise provision.
Second. an element OF elasticity In
our National bank currency should be
provided. A small step. equal in
amount to say 10 per cent of the cap
ital of the bank, is sufficient for dem
onstration of efficiency and safety.
IF its desirability is proved. grad
ual increase within term Of years TO
say so per cent. OF the amount Of the
capital with full and unquestioned
provision for the redemption of notes
OF insolverf banks as afforded in the
Lowering and other bills is the other
step Immediately necessary.
The general subject appears com
pick and our people are. therefore. dis
inclined-to study IT, The principles are
simple. The humblest citizen is inter
ested in the perfection of money laws.
Only the absolute assurance Of par
ity will make a New York bill of ex-
change as acceptable in the commerce
OF the world as a bill OF exchange on
London.
Assured parity of the metallic cur
rencies and scientific provision for elias
tic bank currency without risk of re-
demption will not only strengthen the
fibre OF our domestic commercial in
terests. but will do more to make pos
sible the sale of products OF American
labor than any other one act of legis-
lation.
That the president, secretary OF the
treasury and the comptroller of the
currency should all so courageously at
this time advocate such legislation in
dicates the growth Of public opinion
favorable to laws in the interest OF all
of our people, without preference, the
Importance Of which should arouse the
business men Of the country to the de-
termined, timely support of the effort
being made to secure congressional ac-
ton"
Mr.. Hanna was chairman OF the ex-
ecutive committee Of fifteen created by
the National Monetary Conference held
at indianapolis in 1897. ana ever since
he has been active in pressing the de-
mands of financial reformers.

Minister Buck Dies

Yokohama, Dec. 5.-Paraiysis of
the heart caused the death OF United
States Minister Albert E. Buck, which
occurred yesterday. The end was

with jocular remark, started to re.
set the net. Suddenly he fell and
without word or groan expired in.

MUST GBT TOGETHER.

The tendency OF business men to-
ward a second choice for the Federal
building site gives a more favorable
aspect to the effort to slft public opin-
ion preparatory to definite action on
the arrival OF Commissioner Eustic. 1t
furnishes good grounds for belief that
Honolulu in this instance will be able
to overcome its reputation for retard-
ing its own progress by agreements to
disagree. This sentiment should be
fostered by all elements, also an agree
ment by all factions or individuals that
the final decision of the local commit
tee shall not be opposed in Washing
ton.
Whatever our committee on sites
may report, It is possible for dis
gruntled or opinionated faction to hold
up the whole matter in the Congress
sional committee. Experience of other
cities has shown the power OF what
seems an Insignificant opposition. Ha-
waii is going before a Congressional
committee which has to consider the
claims of Mainland cities whose Fed
eral buildings have been held up for
years by just such opposition as Wa
must use every effort to avoid. These
cities, some of them in important
states and Congressional districts. ex-
ercise greater influence than Hawaii
can hope to swing. Under any circum-
stances they will urge the priority OF
their claim and should this Territory
go before Congress with factional
fight there is nothing more certain than
its request being shelved.
The Federal building our citizens
must remember will serve double pur-
pose. Honolulu not only requires bet
ter accommodation for Federal officers.
1t also wants the expenditure IN, these
islands OF share at least OF the money
now being paid into the United States
Treasury through the custom house and
internal revenue department. The

Territory can never get this money
back by any direct methods. Commits
sioner Eustis says very truly, There
are two things the United States never
gives up, its flag and its tariff reye-
nues" We must seek the return of our
money through the indirect but not
less satisfactory means of public build
ings, fire claims. and the improvement
of all Federal projects within this Ter
ritory. In their endeavors to accomp-
lish these results our citizens must not
forget the number and power Of our
competitors before Congress. To gain

up and urged to more strenuous effort.
not because new-made friends may
assist Hawaii but that they, through
our mistakes, may profit and Hawaii
be sidetracked for the benefit of some
Mainland State or Territory.
Our citizens should not only have a
second choice on which an agreement
is possible Let them determine on a
third or fourth choice. They should
get together at all hazards. Any one
OF the proposed sites is within an area
that will accommodate the general
public and the business community.

A SMOOTH
 SWINDLER Failed to Get Bogus Draft
 CaShed. TOLD PLAUSIBLE STORY Claimed to be Brother of Judge J. J. Mayfield. Check Was for $75 Drawn on Tusca- loosa Bank-Same Game Was Successfully Worked in This
 City About a Year Ago.

A smooth swindler has within the past few days been trying to secure money Tn Montgomery by representing himself as the brother of Hon. James J. Mayhein. Judge of the County Court of Tusca- loosa. but so far as can be learned he was not successful.
 Early in the week. about o'clock in the evening man described as appar- entity about 30 years old, small of stature. with penetrating black eyes, overhanging eyebrows and black hair called at the residence of a well known Montgomery lawyer and presenting a draft on the Merchants National Bank of Tuscaloosa for s7o. introduced himself as the brother of Judge Mayfield and requested the Montgomery lawyer to cash the draft which was signed James J. Mayfield."
 The Montgomery lawyer kept the draft and asked the stranger to return 10 his residence within an hour when he would make some enquiry about the draft and if possible would cash 1t for him. An ef- fort to communicate with Judge May field by wire failed but it subsequently, developed that this was unnecessary as the stranger did not return for the forged draft
 The draft was forwarded by mall to Judge Mayfield and the Montgomery law yer yesterday received an answer to his letter. Judge Mayfield says he deeply pose upon him and his friends by repre- senting himself to be his brother. He says this is the third or fourth time this man has tried to secure money by tell ing prominent men of Alabama that he was a brother of Judge Mayfield. He will make an effort to locate the stranger and will prosecute him if he is caught.
 Judge Mayfield says about ten days ago q man who answers the same description offered a check for Sl00 with his name signed to it to Hon. John Rogers of Sum- ter County and that when Mr Rogers went to the bank the young man Jeff the place. Six months ago Judge May field says this man secured Sl5 from Hon. ". W. Quarlcs of Selma, on the pretext of being his brother and about two years ago secured $15 from A. G. Smith Of Birmingham on the same plea.
 Some time ago. 1t will be remembered. e young man secured a small amount of money from a Montgomery man by claim ing to be a son of Hon. Frank s. Moody of Tuscaloosa. and about the same time another citizen was duped by the same young man who represented himself to be son of Dr. J. T. Searcy, Superinten- dent of the Alabama Insane Asylum. Of- ficers of the law became interested in the young man who was heard from at sey- eral points in Alabama where he repre- sented himself to be a deputy sheriff sheriffs of various counties of the State, but he was never appre- hended.
 Judge Mayfield writes his Montgomery friend that he believes the young man is a son of a respectable citizen of Tus- caloosa County, but that the young man is thief by nature and has been prac- tising these tricks four or five years.
