THE WHITE HOUSE.

WASHINGTON, June 27-The first
week in July will probably see the Fed
eral Capitol well nigh deserted by
prominent officialdom. Senators and
members of Congress will get away
from here with all speed and will be
speedily followed by President Roose-
welt who is anxious to get away to the
quiet of his summer home in oyster
Bay. Then the White House is being
torn down internally and before the
President returns nearly $500, 900 will be
spent in making it a modern residence
with Conveniences for the Presidents
family and for the throngs that are en-
tertained there during the social sea-
son. Hereafter politicians will no more
climb the long stairway to see the Pres
ident on official business. Instead of
that they will see him in a special Of
flee building to be erected just west of
the White House and fronting EXeCu-
tive avenue and the great State, War
and Navy building.

THEORY ON MICHIGAN

Admiral j. f. Merry, the command
ant of the local naval station, is not
worried over the safety of the training
snip MOhican. He states that unless
She appears in a few days, he viii be Of
the opinion that she has left out TIO-
nolulu and gone direct to the Bremen
ton navy yard which was her destna-
ton.
The vessel probably took a northern
course from Yokohama, going UP Is far
as the 40th degree of north latitude.
She no doubt encountered adverse
winds and was detained considerably.
After Captain Cowdon saw that he
would not be able to make Honolulu
within the time scheduled for his ves-
sci, he probably decided to cut this
place out altogether, and go right on
to Bremerton. Captain Cowdon did
just such a thing on his last trip to Ho-
nOlulu from San Diego. The Mohican
was scheduled to first put in at Hilo,
but as she was delayed considerably by
adverse weather, Captain Cowdon did
not stop at Hilo, but came right on to
this port.
Admiral Merry says that the idea of
predicting that the Mohican has met a
fate similar to the British cruiser con-
dor, is ridiculous, and such reports
should rot be circulated.

LEGISLATION
FOR HAWAII

WASHINGTON, June 23.-The COM
mittee on Pacific Islands and Porto
Rico today decided to postpone until
next session the bill granting rights
of way to the Hawaiian Ditch Company
This bill gives valuable rights to the
company in which Samuel Parker is
heavily interested. Objection was made
by the Bishop estate which claimed
that it's holdings would be injured by
the proposed diversion of water.
The committee framed a bill appro-
priating $1,000,000 to pay persons whose
property was destroyed i'm Honolulu In
stamping out the bubonic plague. The
bill also authorizes the territorial gov
eminent to issue 100000 in bonds to
complete the payments for the destroy
ed property The committee proposed
this matter as an amendment to the
general deficiency bill but as 1t is likely
to go out on a point OF order, the bill
will be held in readiness to be intro
duced.

~ as sugar. Coming from San Fran
cisco here, the customs department has
no more to do with it than it has with
any other merchandise coming from
there We know it is shipped in here
frequntly from San Francisco as sta
tionery' and AS other things besides
opium, but we have no duty to per-
form in the matter.
Under the old regime importing
and having in possession" were the
features of the statute under which
prosecutions were carried on. Since
the territory was organized importing
has become legal, and If a man can
import he can have in possession, and
Judge Humphreys decided some time
ago that the having in possession"
clause of the local law was unconstitu-
tional Since then there have been 10
prosecutions under the local law, and
opium importing and opium selling goes
on just as openly as any other business.
In fact you can go into a good many
Chinese places of business and find
opium on the shelves, just as openly
and in full view almost as other canned
goods. The decision of Judge Hum
phreys seems to have been accepted by
the police department as knocking the
old opium law out completely and l do

laid away two or three hours. When
ironing have a bowl of water and a
clean piece Of muslin beside the IRON

not sufficiently SO to scorch. and abso-
lutely clean. Begin by ironing the
back. then the front, sides and the
sleeves. followed by the neckband and
the cuffs. When wrinkles appear ap-
ply the damp cloth and remove them.
Always iron from the top of the waist
to the bottom. II there are plaits in
the front iron them downward, after
first raising each one with a blunt
knife. and with the edge Of the iron

Just about doubled. At the time of the

covltes numbered about 100000, al
though the official figures were 2J2.-

the population as co., 900; in 1882 it
was 76S,0O0, and according to the
reckoning now completed the historic
city contains 1.173,5OO Inhabitants,
thus taking the tenth place among the

What Constitutes "News,"

The Buffalo Commercial says that
Charles A. Dana once defined news
in tnis way: "If you see dog biting
a man don't write it up. But if you
see man biting dog spare no pains
or money to get the details to the
Sun office" This is poor paraphrase
of a good story. When Doc" Wood
was night editor or the Sun young
reporter asked him: What consti-
tutes news?" Mr.. Wood considered
for a moment and then replied:
Here's an illustration which will
probably give you correct idea of
what | think on that subject. If you
should see a dog running down
Broadway with a tin can tied to his
tail it isn't worth a line. But if you
should see n dog with tin can tied
to his tail-walking down Broadway
it's worth a column"

HANDY BOOK OF INSULTS.
Thousands Of Fighting Epithets Put
Into Dictionary.

Herr Schuch, n German author, has
compiled dictionary of $500 insult
ing expressions, carefully tabulated,
indexed and classified. The work, on
which Herr Schuch has spent years of
labor, is called the Schimpfworter Lex
ikOn and is divided into five general
heads-insults for men. insults for
women. insults for either sex, insults
for children and collective insults for
syndicates, groups and corporations.
Herr Schuch, with that minute discern
ment of the searching German, has sub
divi'ied these classes into smaller ones,
so chat when one wishes to call his
friend or enemy name 1t needs but
short consultation with the book to
find the exact epithet or phrase which
will fit the case. This work would
have been invaluable to Mississippi
river pilots in the old days, and even
now the teamster may regard 1t as II
welcome addition to his library.
