Then there is the St Francis hotel go

west of Chicago-yes, barring of course
the Alexander Young hotel in Homo
lulu" Mr.. Peters laughingly added.
The tendency is now for western
people to think more of the Hawai-
ian Islands, since they have been an
nexed. Tourists are therefore coming
this way, as for instance the twenty
passengers who came down in the
Alameda

REPUBLICANS FOR
A SHORT FIGHT

Many members of the Republican
Central committee are of opinion that
the best move would be to keep the
county conventions back until about
the first of October, so that the cam
paign will not last longer than one
month. This would mean that the
fight would be made of the whirlwind
order, for if the Republicans so de-
eide the Home Rulers will not be able
to make much progress in their cam
paign, until they have an opposition
ticket in the field.
The question of re presentation in the
county conventions likewise has at
tracted some attention, and the out
look is that the basis once fixed as
to numbers, will have to be figured on
each precinct, for the member of the
House, receiving the highest vote. This
will give almost the same representa-
ton as if the vote of Delegate Kala-
nianaole should be taken.
The prospect is that the furthest
that will be gone at this time in the
matter of the rules for the conventions
will be the selection of committee to
the rules. and to report at the
next meeting. The meeting probably
will be a large one.

MISS DAWSON
VISITS WAIALEE

Miss Rose Dawson, the school agent,
said to a newsgatherer of the Adver-
tiser yesterday:
Il was down seeing the boys indus
trial school at Waialee last Sunday,
and was perfectly delighted with what
I saw. There were four taro patches
planted and four ready to be planted.
When you know that the ground used
to be a swamp of rushes you may real
ize the amount of work it means.
Then the boys have built a poi
house and have the carpenter shop
nearly completed. 1t was hard to be-
lieve that this was the work of chill
dren. Vegetables are growing. There
was lettuce ready for the table. The
boys had started building fences, the
posts being up and ready for wiring
this week.
'They are nearly all small children,
eight to twelve years of age, only half
a dozen or so being fourteen and up
ward. The boys are crowded and the
entire accommodation planned cannot
be prepared too soon. Money is appro
priated but it is in the loan bill and
there is no saying when it will be
available.
1.-The boys when 1 questioned them
said they We're very happy. Every

look well-fed. There has been no sick
ness among them over there, whereas
while in Honolulu some were sick all
the time. The institution needs lot
of care because the children are so
young. Still they looked on Sunday
like a lot of kids on a picnic.
Mr.. Atkinson is talking of going
down next Sunday. The guards like ii.
The old carpenter. who is mechanical
instructor was up today and he said
he didn't care about coming to town,
il was so pleasant at Waialee.

themselves. and they are going to fix
up a bathroom. 1t Will be nice place

SEE OLD HAWAII
THIS EVENING

This is the evening when the care
fully planned exhibition, I'm Old Ha-
wall will be given in the Hawaiian
Opera House. A great deal of thought
and labor has been devoted to the prep
aration of this reproduction of ancient
Hawaiian scenes by the manager, Mr..
Chandler, and many competent helpers.
The panorama of the Volcano of XII
lauea is testified to be only second as a
spectacle to the great reality itself.
The Hawaiian spearing exercises to be
presented are those that were revised
by the late King Kalakaua.
Those who saw the Hawaiian
tableaux some years ago will want to
see those of this event, especially when
assured that the former exhibition is
quite surpassed.
Strangers in town, who think Homo
lulu more modern than they would
have liked, have in this exhibition an
opportunity which tourists are too sell
dom privileged to enjoy.

A CITIZENS STORY
Told by a Honolulu Citizen for
the Benefit of Honolulu
People.

The greatest Importance attached to
the following is that it concerns Ho-
noIulu citizen. 1t would lose three
quarters of it's interest If it involved
some resident of Kalamazoo. Mich, or

mony which has appeared here, and
like all which will follow about the
Old Quaker remedy, Doan's Backache
Kidney Pills, it comes from residents,
fellow citizens and neighbors. No
other remedy can show such a record
of home cures. Read this case:

years 1 had the misfortune to be at
hicted with an aching back. The pain
and discomfort this entailed on me can
be better imagined that described.
have two children, and it was Of course
difficult for me to attend to them
while oppressed with suffering. The
way in which found relief eventually
was by using Doan's Backache Kid
ney Pills, procured at the Hollister
Drug Co.'s store. They did me a large
amount of good, as I now testify. I
should certainly recommend those who
have backache or any other form of
kidney trouble to try Doan's Backache
Kidney Pills.

GRIP CONVALESCENCE

There's nothing better than
SCOTS Emulsion after the
grip. When the fever is gone
the body is left weak and ex-
hausted; the nervous system
is completely run down and
vitality is low.
Two things to do: give
strength to the whole body
and new force to the nerves.
SCOTS Emulsion will do it;
contains just what the worn
out system needs.
Rich blood, healthy flesh,
resistive force, more and better
nourishment are what SCOTS
Emulsion supplies to the
convalescent.
SCOTS Emulsion is the
original and has been the
standard emulsion of cod liver
oil for nearly thirty years.
Why buy the new, untried,
cheap emulsions or so called
wines, cordials and extracts
of cod liver oil, when you can
buy what is sure to help you?
