THE NAVAL VISITORS.
LThe oflc,al and Commercial Record. J

With the exception of the military
expeditions to the PHILIPPINES, the
naval fleet about to arrive in Homo
lulu will bring more visitors to our
shores than have ever before been at
the Islands at one time.
Talk about tourist travel! We are
going to have several thousand tour
lists all at once. They will be none the
less welcome, and none the less worth
entertaining because they wear our
Uncle Sans uniform.
1t is most certainly in order for the
Promotion Committee to devise ways
and means for entertaining our visitors
and making their stay an agreeable
one. Such entertainment should in
clude the men as well as the officers.
There are several ways of entertain
ing the men which will be appreciated
by them without involving undue eN-
pense. For example:
% A band concert in the Executive
Building Grounds, participated in by
the local bands and the several bands
from the ships. The grounds should be
illuminated by electric lights among
the trees and refreshments could be
given to every man wearing the naval
uniform.
1t is all we'll enough to have band
concerts at the Hawaiian and Young
Hotels; but the space is so restricted
that they are unsuitable for the pro-
posed purpose.
C) Let prizes be offered for series
of boat races, in which all of the naval
ships can be represented. Shore boats
should be restricted to those of the
same type as the ships boats. In addi-
tion to the prizes a good dinner can be
given to the participants, under the
auspices of the Local Boat Clubs.
(3) Free admission can be given to
all wearing the naval uniform, ut the
foot ball game to be played week
from Saturday.
G a polo game can be gotten up
TO be played at Kapiolani Park, ad-
mission TO be free to the uniform.
(5) Opportunity can be given TO any
teams aboard who think they know
how to play base ball or foot ball, TO
prove their faith, either against each
other or against local teams. Other
plans of n similar character may be
devised.
II the promotion Committee will take
the matter up. we feel sure that the
Merchants Association, the athletic
clubs and the citizens will gladly
assist,

DID NOT FIND
WRECK OF CONDOR

H. NJ. s. Grafton Is back from the
west coast of Vancouver island. She
did not find the submarine wreck she
went to investigate, supposed to be the
Condor.
The search was not made, the cruise
being taken up in searching off the
storm tossed island coast for the fish
ermen who reported the wreck, and
who We're, while the cruiser searched
the ocean for them, toasting their feet
before the stoves in Victoria. There
fore the Grafton, which sought for the
fishermen off the island coast, failed to
find them, and she came back.
The flagship had been made ready to
drag in the event of being directed to
where the fishermen located the sub
merged wreck. At her sounding plat
form she had two kedge anchors, ready
TO go oversize, and the divers had their
gear, in fact all preparations were
made to investigate the submerged
wreck.
But the sailors could not find the
fishermen, and did not seek the wreck.
Later, when the fishermen are located
and the bearings are obtained another
search is to be made. The fishermen
say the wreck lies in twenty-five faith
oms of water, some stating that she Is
five miles off Amphitrite point, while
others say she Is about seven miles
from the point which marks the west
ern entrance TO Barkley sound. They
believe that n wreck lies there, and
that the fouling of their lines and the
iron rust stains on them when they
We're hauled up, indicate that the sunk
en- vessel is an iron one.-Victoria

J. II. Quick before the State
convention of Democrats of Iowa
the other day emphasized the
trust question as the question
overshadowing all other issues
that will face the people in the ma
tional campaign next year. Here
is one observation made by Mr..
Quick; taking the railroad com
bines as an example: There are
those who believe that proper re,
strictive statutes vigorously en-.
forced will cure this evil. / am
not in agreement with these optis
mistic views. There is no force
in law to compel the single owner
Of two railways to compete with
himself nor is it possible by stat
ute to prevent men as railway OWL
ers from granting favors to them;
selves as shippers. We must CHOOSE
between railway ownership and
the operation of government ani
government ownership and thu
operation Of railways And in th'
resumption by the people Of theil
own highways will be found thu
most simple and practical way
toward depriving the trusts Q
their powes Of evil.

Death will find us sooner or later,
On the deck or in the cot,
And We can not meet 1t better,
Than in working out our lot.
James Browning, living about
four and one half miles southwest
of Santa Fe, triumphantly passed
from the pains and trials of life at
6 p. M, Friday, June 10, 1908.
Loved ones watched untiringly
by his bedside, and did all that
human hands could do, but the
angel of God came to bear the suf-
feriug spirit into the sweet beyond
where there'll be no more sickness
and sorrow, pain and death, to
that home that has been prepared
for the faithful ones of earth.
Deceased leaves a devoted wife,
five sons and a host of friends to
mourn his death. May God bless
and sustain them in their sad be-
reavenent, and may they be drawn
nearer to Him, and those of us
who are in the midst of life may
we realize that every day brings us
nearer to the grave, and why
should we not prepare for our last
day on earth, and try to meet
those who are near aud dear to MS
in that bright and better land7

Flowers for Baby's Grave.

Flowers for Baby's Grave.
The following is said to be true
and comes from Omaha, Ne
braska:
Ore Sunday recently two boys
were strolling through the ceme-
terry which, this day in early spring,
was everywhere decorated with
flowers. In their walk the two
lads came across small grave
that had no flowers upon it.
The younger one, aged about z
years, stopped and looked at the
grave. Then, turning about to
see if any one might be looking,
and thinking the coast all clear,
he crept over to nearby grave
that was covered with costly bios
SONS and selected several bO-
quets. Secreting the flowers be-
meath his coat he crept back to the
neglected little mound and gently
and lovingly bestowed the bios
SONS upon the tiny grave.
Then the two boys walked away
saying no word to each other un-
| I'll thew were i'm the street outside
the cemetery.
Then one said to the other:
"That wasn't stealing, was itl"
"Course it wasn't" responded
the other. Don't you think that
little baby had just as much right
to a flower as some of the grown
folksH"
Aye, why mott
Somebody has forgotten baby's
grave, but that was no reason why
its little tomb should not have
some blossoms. That was nc
reason why the tender feelings OF
the boy should be hurt. In the
sweet heart of the little lad was
the reproach that could not be
removed by taking a few flowers
that could not be missed from the
grown folks grave.
OF course it wasn't stealing. II
makes no difference what the
law books say.
Or. if you must stick to your
musty statute books and the letter
of the law, let us say:
If it was stealing the act was
like that of Uncle Toby when hi
let slip his oath-the recording
angel dropped a tear upon it ant
blotted it out forever.
