Walter Williams, of Columbia,
Mo-, writes in a letter recently re-
ceived Mt Worlds Fair headquarters
about the art schools established in
Greece by Lady Egerton, wife Of
Lord Edwin Egerton, the British
minister at Athens. Lady Egerton

popular distress in Greece caused by
that country's last war with Tur-
key, by teaching women lace-mak-
ing and other industrial arts. She
has established and conducted these
schools at her own expense, selling
the products for the workers, and
exhibiting them at expositions in
other countries, where she has OBJ
tanned many medals for them and is
now willing to install her industrial
exhibits in the Louisiana Purchase
Exposition at her own expense, pro-
vided they are classified and dis

The Story of the Pre,ident's Mother,

When Martha Bulloch, the fair
daughter of wealthy Georgia
planter, married Theodore
Roosevelt half a century ago she
little dreamed that her name
would be handed down as the
mother of a President. The
pretty romance of her meeting
with the New York man, their
courtship and marriage, and the
long honeymoon journey in a
stagecoach, forms a new and in
teresting chapter in connection
with the life of the present
Theodore Roosevelt. In the
June number of the Ladies' Home
Journal this romance and many
unknown facts concerning the
Presidents mother are told by a
cousin of Martha Bulloch.

GAME FISH
CALIFORNIAN ANGLERS INTER.
ESTED IN THESE WATERS.
Would Come Here if Assured of Game
Fish and Facilities for Catching
Them.

a well known Californian fisherman,
noted for his big individual catches at
Catalina and else where, who has been
in constant correspondence with Com
modore Hebron of the Hawaii Boat
and Yacht club on the subject of fishing
in Honolulu waters, writes that he Is
convinced that local anglers when troll
ling for tuna and other deep sea fish,
skim the surface too closely with their
bait. Tuna, he claims, rise only to the
immediate surface when after flying
fish and usually glide along several feet
below the surface. He therefore re-
commends more length of line and
heavier leads.
Californian sportsmen have been
much interested i'm the ulua-tuna ques-
ton in Hawaiian waters and are anX-
iOusly waiting the verdict that the tuna
or satisfactory fishing substitutes is
actually existent in these waters as a
sporting fish. 1t is known that the ulua
will only leap in deep waters which is
the reason why Catalina with its vol
Canic cliffs and islets has been found
the only place on the California coast
that is easily reached where the tuna
may be fought. The shallower waters
of the mainland shores may harbor the
fish but it never develops there as d
sport game fish.
Hawaii with its great depths imme-
diately outside the reefs is thought
theoretically to be a perfect fishing
ground. The waters have never been
thoroughly tried nor have the methods
of Californian tuna hunters been adopt
ed at all. The ulua or tuna is known to
leap here and has often been caught on
the troll and sometimes by rod from the
reef affording the greatest of sport.
The most successful method of troll
ing locally has been with lead made
from a fiat semicircle of the metal with
the straight edges sCOOped out con-
cavely into hollows. The hook is per-
manently attached and the lead glst-
ening with a spinning motion, forms
both weight and bait. The fish seem to
like the taste of the cold lead and
where they will snatch half a flying fish
from hook and depart satisfied they
will return again and again to the
charge upon the metal bait until they
are hooked and the battle royal begins.
These are not the artistic methods
used at Catalina but these will soon
be in vogue as soon as the Californian
anglers are convinced of the existence
of the tuna and other game fish here
with facilities for getting at the sport
Broadly speaking, the Catalina method
is to wait until the tuna breaks the
water after flying fish and then to sally
forth in the stern of a steam launch
and fish directly with rod and reel.
Clarence Macfarlane reports the cap
ture of a four foot ono from the stern
of the La Paloma on the recent trip to
the other side of the island The ono
is a native fish of round proportions
and lengthy body, running up to eight
feet and more. 1t is a game fighter and
most excellent eating.

HOW TO READ HISTORY.

Perhaps the best way to read history
is to take up the life of some great
figure that attracts our Imagination,
and be drawn by that into the study of
the general stage upon which he was
only a single actor. Certainly it is not
a good plan to begin with those elabo-
rate documentary histories in which
you cannot see the wood for the trees.
1t is better to be wrong in a few of
your facts or even contract a bias from
some partisan historian, than to lose
yourself in mOrass of documents. The
best histories are the widest. If they
occasionally lead you astray, you can
always correct them by the more sober
colored chronicles. Macaulay may have
been prejudiced, and 50 may Froude,
and so, undoubtedly, was Carlyle; 50,
again was Gibbons yet, none the less,
these are the great historians, the his
torians who set you upon the peaks Of
time and enable you to see history as it
lies beneath, in wide views and broad

"CAMMY's" PLEA FOR PRIMO.

EDITOR STAR:-Before the eXpira-
ton of the Primo Beer Saloon licenses
! should like to draw the attention of
the Anti-SalOOn League members and
others identified with that movement,
as well as broad-minded, unpreiudiced
citizens, to my establishment on Ala
kea street, between King and Merchant
streets, known to everybody as the
"Gambrinus Gardens" to the eXCep-
tional and peculiar condition of affairs
that renders my place so popular with
the public.
In the first place "Gambrinus Car
dens" is more of a lunch room and re
sort for the recreation of the laboring
classes than a mere beer drinking re-
sort l furnish a substantial hot lunch
during the noon hour of every day.
Artisans and mechanics, clerks and
many others crowd here at that time
to avail themselves of cooling
draught of good wholesome beer and a
square meal for the small sum of ten
cents
After partaking of his lunch, the
workingman, instead of having to get
out on the street to loaf the rest of
his noon hour, as in the case in the
average 25c. restaurant, is at liberty
to sit at ease reading the papers in
the cool lanais of my establishment I'M
til the blowing of the whistle calls him
back to toll
My place has now been running for
a year, and, in all that time the police
have never found it necessary, owing
to the objections which are so often
urged against saloons by temperance
organizations, to interfere in any way,
shape, form or manner
The "Gambrinus Gardens" are al
and representatives Of the Anti-Saloon
League are earnestly invited to drop
in during the noon hour and see for
themselves the benefit derivd by the
working class.
am sure that if the matter were put
fairly to the test of public opinion, the
great majority would champion the
cause of more such institutions like
mine. Is it fair that a few temperance
people should set themselves up to say
what the people shall do, or what they
shall not do? Let the public speak for
themselves!

SCARLET AND GOLD.
New Artillery Uniforms Gorgeous But
Expensive.

The artillery officers at Camp Nc
Kinley are not allowing their pride in
the pomp and panOply of glittering uni
forms to Overmaster them. The new
uniforms that have been ordered for the
officers are deliberately ornamented on
the collars and cuffs with real gold lace
and, as the outfit has to be complete,
the expense runs high and makes a big
hole in the annual salary of a lieute-
nant.
1t is murmured that the order regard
ing the new gold laced clothes eman-
ated not so much through the desire
Of Uncle Sam to see the military arm
fine nation compete with the glitter
ing soldiers of Europe as through the
efforts Of military clothiers and their
lobbyists who will reap rich harvest
from the new issue.
One CLEAN of comfort remains in the
fact that the navy, which has hitherto
had a practical monopoly Of gold lace
even the lowest grades Of assistant pay
masters and other officers, boasting
epaulettes and gold lace stripes, win no
longer be able to completely Outshine
their brother defenders Of the nation at
levees, balls and receptions public and
private
The combination of artillery scarlet
and blue with the prescribed gold lace
will, it is thought, although an eX-
pensive luxury, cause the wearer ia
completely outshine all the rest,
