GAME WON
BY kauai PLAYERS
LARGE CROWD PRESENT TO SEE
THE SECOND ROUND OF THE
POLO TOURNAMENT.

A big crowd turned but to see the
Thanksgiving polo and, before the Sec
ond period was played swelled into big
proportions, completely eclipsing the
turn out for Tuesdays game Kauai
won from Hilo, as was generally eX-
pected, with a liberal margin to spare,
the score being 1917. Hilo put up a
more consistent game and while Prouty
was the bright star of the Hawaiian
constellation, the others got into the
game to a certain extent DR.. Irwin,
in the third period particularly mount
ed on speedy black mare, did good
work, Kennedy and Clark also con-
tributing. A foul on cross riding was
scored against Hilo and the Kauai men,
the Malina boys particularly should
have been penalised more than once for
deliberate mallet interference, two
cases of reaching forward being parti-
cularly fragrant.
The play was fast but straggly the
tendency throughout being to bunch.
Time and time again a clear field was
left by lack of judgment. There was
no riding off to speak of. The inter-
est of the Oahu and Maui men was
Centered on the game to see what the
comparative scores would prophesy as
to tOmorrOw's game. On the face of it
matters look bright for Maui. The
goals scored by Hilo against oahu on
Tuesday should neither of them have
been allowed to happen. Carelessness
on the oahu side permitted Prouty to
get through and it is not likely that it
would happen again. The Oahu men
were winning easily and were not called
! upon to show their form 1t would not
| have been policy with the Mauites
watching them. 1t may therefore be
safely assumed that oahu was not
playing it's best game. Those who have
watched them throughout the season
know this to be a fact. On the other
hand Kaui was constantly urged yester-
day to play their latest for the sake of
| the Maui men making comparison. on
/ the whole the matter stands pretty
much in doubt for tomorrow.
On form Oahu should win, team work
ought to prevail against individual
play. If Maui breaks through there
may be some fast scoring. Three men
of the Oahu team, undoubtedly play
better under pressure. At all events
the affair will be first class match and
we'll worth Watching whatever the re-
suit.
The game tomorrow will start at
three o'clock and not three thirty as
previously announced. This alteration
is made on account of the desirability
of playing the last period before dusk.
During the afternoon a match race
| declared off earlier in the day was not
allowed to be brought off by the master
of the field as the necessary arrange
ments had not been made to look out
I for the safety of the crowd.

FORESTRY CONYENTION.

At a forestry convention at Moscow,
Russia, it was stated that the results OF
a number of government tests showed
that the best time to cut trees was near
the end of June, while the bark would
peel freely. Rails of young Eastwood,
summer cut and seasoned, became near
ly as hard as horn, while those which
were winter cut would rot in a few
years. Box elder cut in June, when
peeled, dried and set as posts for fences
or sheds, and lasted 16 years, while
others similarly treated and used, but
cut in winter and set green, rotted in
four years.

SOME MARINE CURIOs.
Many Strange Objects To Be Seen II
Unique Shop.


The love of the ocean as we'll as of
gain is the raison d'etre of little shop
recently opened in this city. The stock
in trade consists of what may be term
ed marine oddities of sufficient beauty
to be available for domestic decoration.
The proprietor is a bright-eyed woman
with an extensive knowledge of the
treasures of the Atlantic ocean and the
Caribbean sea.
II opened this place." she said, on
account of the ever-growing interest
taken by people in general in the Won
derful flora and fauna of the ocean.
deal in what may be called legitimate
specimens, and not freaks or mOnstrO-
Sites Among monstrosities are such
things as the pOrcupine fish, which is
mass of spines without any particu-
lar beauty. Another monstrosity is the
dried devil-fish, which is hideous both
in appearance and association. Among
freaks are natural objects which have
been changed by human workmanship.
OF this a common form is the emboss-
ed sea cOnch. These are made in a very
simple way. Slips of paper are pasted
on the shells, so as to form any pat
tern, and the shell is then exposed to
sand blast. The paper is then soft
ened with hot water and removed
Where is was pasted the shell is per-
fectly smooth, but elsewhere it has
been cut and roughened, according to
the sand and the force of the blast 81
as to produce any desired pattern.
THE effect is pleasing enough from
a geometrical point of view, but is abb
solutely unnatural and so inappropri-
ate that it might be compared to a
painted lily or a rosebud soaked with
extract of new-mown hay. A true Gu
rio is the mermaids' lace, a living
growth in the water near the Island oi
Burano, not far from Venice. The
| beautiful network of this organism is
said to have been the model from
which the Venetian artisans made the
early point lace of Venice. Another in
teresting specimen is the pima and
! its silky fibers. The pima is an enter
prising mollusk which sails the seas
and when he finds a rock which he
thinks would make a comfortable head
quarters he spins or secrets long fibeTi
which contain some gluey substance
with which he attaches himself to the
stone. The number of fbers that hC
spins depends upon the force of tnt
wave at the place he has chosen
Where he is in a calm blight protected
from wind and wave, he throws out {
few thin threads which hold him II
place, but where his post is liable L
be struck by heavy waves he fairly
surrounds himself with his little fas
Jennings. In the latter case, he looks OF
a small scale like the trunk of a ban
yam tree, whose roots run out over tn,
rocky soil like the spokes of a wheel.

CIGAR TIP.

A combustible cigar tip, which is in
tended to do away with the use Of
matches, has been invented. The tip
is composed of a mixture of ground
glass, saltpeter, potassium clorlde and
gum arabic. This mass is nodded into
cap on the end of cigar and frIc-
tional lighter such as that used on the
tips of matches, is placed on the sur
face of the cap. When the igniter is
scratched the cap burns freely and can
not be eXtinguished by an ordinary
wind. The combustion fuses the ground
glass and renders the cap incandescent.
The fused glass forms an airproof cover
on the end of the cigar and prevents
any of the fumes from entering the to-
bacco so that no unpleasant taste re-

Public Library Needed.

While we are engaged in building in Jones Valley a central city with all modern equipments, it should never be forgotten that we have no public library, barring a school library of less than 10000 volumes. This fact is not creditable to us or to the state. Hayerhill, containing 10000 people, has public library that holds 10000 volumes, and Joliet, containing 32,000 population, has one that numbers 1S,- PAS volumes. Butte, Montana, has but 31,500 people, and yet it has public library numbering 29,439 volumes. Rockfords public library has 36,S3O volumes, and Rockford has but 32,000 people. The public library of Spring field H., has 49,1 ,131 volumes, and Springfield has but 36,000 population. Quincy, H., has fewer people than Birmingham, but it's public library holds 26,950 books. It is unnecessary to multiply examples. Modern cities are equipped, as a rule, with free pub lie libraries, and Birmingham cannot afford much longer to be without one.
 The more economical way would no doubt consist in additions to the school library. That library is a good start towards a library of 25,000 vol umes, for a well selected and well maintained library of that size would meet book needs in this city fairly well. A competent librarian or book committee could make such a library fit the case.
 By using the school library as a basis upon which to build, and by giv- ing over the market space in the City Hall to library purposes, a long stride would be taken towards a public H. brary. An annual appropriation of S3500 would do the rest.

Cpeninu the Warrior.

The opening of the Warrior, as the river is known, from Demopolis to Tuscaloosa, will be complete when lccks and dams Nos. 1, 2 and 3 are completed. The money needed in the execution of these works was appro. priated in the rivers and harbors bill of last June anu contracts for their construction wll soon. be let In a years time perhaps there will be a channel six feet deep open the year round up to Tuscaloosa. This will certainly be a great gain, for it brings an open river almost to the edge of the coal fields. The chief of engin- eers thinks, however, that $4OO,O00 can be expended to good advantage in the river below Tuscaloosa up to June 30, 1904. In other words, this is the amount he thinks the fifty-eighth congress should appropriate to the river below Tuscaloosa.
 The river above Tuscaloosa is known in government reports as the Black Warrior. and the opening of it to the junction of Mulberry and Lo- cust forks, forty-six and a half miles above Tuscaloosa, is the chief task in hand at present. Three locks and dams have been completed and work is progressing on the fourth lock and dam. Seven more locks and dams will be needed, and these will cost just about one million dollars, and an ap- propriation of that sum by the next congress would open the river to the forks and near the railroad bridges, bringing the improvement abreast of Birmingham, at point about fifteen miles away. The railroads could read fly meet the Open River at the juno tion of Mulberry and Locust forks.

Assault Upon the Constitution.

Jackson w. Giles, Montgomery negro, is the figurehead of the Wash ington syndicate that is attempting to
 upset the suffrage article of the con-
 stitution of this state. Judge Jones certified the appeal from his court di- rect to the United States supreme court because the case involves a fed eral constitutional question.
 Giles lawyers set forth in their pleadings that the suffrage article of the Alabama constitution does in gen. eral contravene the fourteenth and flf- teenth amendments of the federal con- stitution, and that subdivision 3 of ar ticle 1S0 is particularly unsound. The particularly obnoxious clause admits to suffrage, "All persons who are of good character, who understand the duties and obligations of citizenship under a republican form of govern ment." The section objected to Is part of the temporary plan, and it cannot be shown that any one was reg istered under it.
 Giles lawyers attempt to show that the entire suffrage article is intend ed to disfranchise the negroes on ac- count of race or color, and they have filed official copies of speeches and debates ir the constitutional conven. tion The preponderance of negro | population in twenty-one counties in | this state is shown, and justice is de- mandei for 75,0Oo qualified negro cit izens."
 Jackson W. Giles is, however, the sole omplainant, the sole aggrieved party in court, and all the grievance he has consists in the refusal of the registration officers under the tempo rary plan to register him. He asks that they be compelled to register him. It is difficult to see how the su- preme court can consistently travel | far outside of Giles case. Giles is, however, a puppet in the studied at- tempt to break down the suffrage | system of this state. As, however, the temporary plan has nearly run it's | course, no great harm can come from any decision the great court may pro nounce.

Southern Growth.

President B. F. Yoa1um of the Frisco said in an interview in New York a day or two ago, that people in the east have no conception of the growth of the south west during the recent years of pros perity," remarked a local railroad man.
 MT. Yoakum is well informed man and Is always conservative. No one knows better the resources of the south and west than he. Speaking of car equipment MT. Yoakum said: We have come to the point where we have to consider very carefully how much new equipment we may be justified in ordering. With the future we'll assured for continuation of good times when we are almost as well pleased to have a delivery of new cars and locomotives, ordered months ago, as we once would have been to be assured of big crop.

Converted From Infldelity.

Prom time to time waves of atheism or inffdelity seem to sweep over France, but there has never been period since that nation embraced Christianity when the majority of French people were not faithful to the church." said student of events
 "Just now agnosticism appears to be rampant among certain political classes in France, but believe that 75 per cent of the population remains true to the Christian religion. And 1t Is significant that a number of men of letters who boasted of being free thinkers outside of the church have within the last ten or twelve months been received into the Roman Catholic communion. Brunetiere, the foremost literary critic of France, be- came a Catholic last year, and since join ing the church has devoted his time and talents to religious work. No acquisi- ton to the Roman church has been so far-reaching in the intellectual world since Newman's day as that of Brune- tiere. Coppee, another distinguished man of letters, has recently renounced his agnostic views and joined the Catholic church. And so, too, has Paul Bourget. In becoming Christian Coppe says that he found human science was often de- captive and that 1t gave no inner strength"
