lola, AS HE WAS,

lola was ready talker. He had a
strong, rather harsh voice, but you
forgot the roughness of its timbi'e be-
cause of the vividness Of the thoughts
which it conveyed. He spoke just as he
wrote. He would repeat the same
statement, if he wished to drive it
home, several times. and each time it
would be SO differently dressed that
you did not recognize Il as having been
already presented. He generally sue
ceeded therefore in convincing, at least

There was holiness about his speech

Duke of Orleans were TO mount white

France before he passed out at the Vim

before the Boulanger movement threat

public.
The divining power of Emile lola
was remarkable. I have been struck
mere than once in conversation with
him by the wonderful accuracy with
which he predicted what would happen,
basing his prediction on the circum-
stances Of the hour. The most aston
ishing instance Of this is seen in his
famous "J'accuse," when he drew con-
illusions that subsequent revelations
showed TO be true to the letter. This
gift he doubtless owed to his talent for

Mo NEY IN MUL rs.

1t appears that the enterprising peo-
pie who sold mules to the British gov
ernment's agents in New Orleans during
the Boer war were not the only ones
who made money out of the deal. Cap
tain Smith, who was one of the first
British officers to go to New Orleans
to buy mules, did some business on his
own account. He took rooms at the st.
Charles and lived luxuriously. His or
ders required him to pass on all stock
purchased for the English army. If he
objected to an animal it was rejected
and the owner lost not only the sale of
the animal but the cost of transporta-
ton to New Orleans. Captain Smith
rejected great many animals at first
until the dealers caught on, and an ar
rangement was reached by which he re-
ceived from them so much a head for
passing stock, whether good or bad.
Originally he received only 81 a head as

publishes the best and the worst nov

more than eight hundred new novels a

THE FRENCH CRUISER PROTEr

CORES of visitors paid n call yes.
terday afternoon to the trim
French cruiser Protet. the flag
ship of the South Pacific fleet. which
floating the broad swallow tail pennan
of Commodore Barnaud, entered the
harbor Saturday morning. The trim
ship is paying her second visit to this
harbor, having been here during the
summer of 1900. under the command
of Commodore Germinet.
Sunday is the only visiting day OF
the ship. and although 1t was also let
so much for the sightseers to take en-
joyment out OF that there was not a
dull moment for the men and women
who made the trip out to the ship.
There were some visitors for the ward
room, and the French Consul. NJ. VIZ
zavona, spent much of the afternoon
with the commodore and officers Of the
ship.
When the Protet showed off the har
Dor, hoisted the United States flag and
doomed eleven times in welcome to the
vessel, and very soon after her coming
to anchor, there was n launch along
side and the Consul paid his official
visit. The commander with his staff
,ame ashore soon after and called upon
Governor Dole. Captain Merry Of the
naval station. and the Bishop OF Pana-
oois. These visits of ceremony made.
he officers began to become acquaint-
ID with the city and surroundings. and
here were several parties OF the jun
ors who enjoyed a swim and a tour OF
Waikiki and a look around Punchbowl.

Mohican, was reserved for this morn
ng. and this will complete the official

and a dinner to the officers The prin-
cipal function will be the SATURDAYS
trip, to include a visit to the Bishop
Museum. and then drive to Moanalua
and luncheon there The officers will
be the guests of Mr.. S. NJ. Damon. and
their entertainment at his country
home Will be an elaborate one. While
this is the only thing so far arranged
with date set. there will be without
doubt something in the way of an ex-
cursion to Waialua. it is thought, fol-
lowed perhaps by dinner at the
Motel for the principal officers. There
IS talk Of semipublic reception, and
1t is arranged that on Sunday next
there will be celebrated a military mass
at the Cathedral.
While the Consul is arranging for
some of these functions, the officers
themselves are planning several tours,
and as they devote much of their time
TO walking while In port, the chances
are that the Island will be fairly well
covered, at least. as to this end. There
will be one party which will make the
tramp to the Pail this morning. An
other will have a walking tour to the
top of Tantalus, and there will be sew
eral men in a party which proposes to
walk to the cane fields of Honolulu
plantation. 1t is proposed that there
be made up party to visit Pearl Har-
Dor. and this may be done any day in
the early part of the week.
The ship will stay here until Mon
day morning next, February 3, and
then will take up the cruise to the
South Seas. The first stop will be
made at the Marquesas, after which
the ship will proceed to Tahiti. which Is
the principal French colony in this !
ocean and where the longest stay will
be made. The majority of the officers !
are enthusiastic camera artists, and
those ashore yesterday had their ma
chimes at work assiduously
