Last Sunday morning the News and
Observer, in an Associated Press dis
patch. gave an extract from an admirable
speech of Judge Augustus Van Wyck at
the meeting of the Southern Society in
New York city That extract whetted
the appetite of many readers for the
full text of that admirable speech, which
is printed below.
In the name of the exalted friendship
tempered by the honor alone a cordial
welcome is extended to the members
and their guests The gods could feast
forever upon the sight which 'greets the
uplifted eyes of our diners. To grand
and radiant womanhood the men of the
South We're always willing captives-her
charms and virtues have conquered the
most obdurate of these.
The sentiment underlying such societies
Is the love of fatherland and of ones
childhood home. an emotion which stlmu-
lates heart and mind with a sweet re-
membrance of the mother, who tenderly
cared for every pain and Joy known TIC
childhood. whose sympathy relieved every
trouble, whose confidence and love OPP
Grated to discipline every resentful
thought against duty.
We pay homage to our southland where
more respect has been paid to the best
sentiments of the human heart than 10
mere material progress of a boastful CIV
ilization and better than the most mod
ern for they were vitalized when Deity
first breathed life into man. In war and
in peace and in prosperity and adversely
these God given principles of heart
and conscience are kept alive there like
the Vestal Virgins did the divine fire
from one generation to another.
The national songs and airs which the
repetition OF never tires emphasize the
same idea The days of "Auld Lang Syne
tell of Scottish clanship and plaids OF
the Highland homes; "Rule Britannia :
betokens the Englishman's pride for his
home. which he is fond of calling a
castle; the "Marseillaise" recalls the
martial history of the Latin race led by
her captains from Caesar to Joan OF
Arc; 1.-The Harp That Once Through
Tara's Halls the Soul of Music Shed, >
speaks of martyred Ireland loved by her
descendants in every cline to the latest
generations; the watch on the Rhine"
tells of the feudal castle and of an in
herited military spirit; the "Star Spran-
gled Banner, long may it wave Ger the
home of the free and the land of the
brave" is an apotheosis OF the true re-
public; Maryland, My Maryland" re-
minds one of the pathetic story of lost
cause which has intensified the sense of
national patriotism; Down in Dixie
Land speaks of a poetic love of an
optimistic race for their mother land,
which was strengthened by trials and de-
vastations not of their making. This
sentiment OF patriotism will last for all
time. though the formula of expression
may be modified by the substitution OF

old world to send him their paltry bills
against Venezuela for settlement max
ing them appear as pigmies in compari-
son with the smallest of civilized nations
as well as in comparison with an Ameri-
can industrial prince. 1t was the stroke
by a master hand with the weapon of
sharp ridicule to call these nations to a
sense of propriety belonging to our age
of progress which circles around that
central figure of the worlds history, the
great Prince of Peace. By this act Mr.
Carnegie challenges the premiership Of
Cervantes in the merciless exposure Of
the folIies of knight errantry in his great
satire, Don Quixote The constant fear
of the possible infringement of the Mon
roe Doctrine perhaps saved the world
from universal war over the South
American controversy
LAS over the past my memory wakes,
And fondly broods with miser care,
Time, but the impression stronger makes,
AS streams their channels deeper
wear"
Thus looking back to the sunny glades
of my southland and its refreshing shades
of beautiful verdure, my childhood seems
like one of the clear and sparkling
springs which begins there and flowing
ever onward into the broad streams OF
life on whose banks have grown the
many and varied flowers of youth and
promise. The realities of manhood with
its accompanying responsibilities, pleas
ures and ambitions resembling the stern
rock and precipices which the broadened
river encounters on its onward course
the dangers of which no man should
shirk for with such duties if we'll per-
formed, come the compensations, which
are like the lovely vines and MOSES that
drape and beautify the stone vissages
sentinels guarding the banks of this
stream of life. And 10 we can, when the
sunset of life appears. find mingled in the
deep river the crystal waters of the
spring from which it rose and has helped
to keep clear. Thus we look back through
the mirror of an unbroken retrospect to
childhood's home.
In conclusion let me congratulate you
and congratulate the Society upon its
healthy condition, nearly a thousand
strong, representing the avocations of
thoe leading the march of progress in
the cara of the highest development yet
touched.

SMOKING ANNOYS
WOMEN PATRONS

Editor Advertiser:-I also wish to
protest against the practice of smoking
at the theatre. Why turn a place of
amusement and recreation into an i'll
smelling smoking room?
Your critic in this mornings Adver-
tiser says that 1.-The majority of the
people who go there are men and they
will not enjoy the play without a
cigar"
To this I will say. let the cigar and
the deadly cigarette be abolished and
there will speedily be an increase of
patronage from he ladies, as well as
from a more considerate class of men,
The fumes of burning tobacco are
positively poisonous to some people un-
accustomed to them, causing nausea
and irregularity of the heart in some
cases. But it is difficult to escape from
the nuisance which assails one every
where.
Not long since a few friends thought
of enjoying a ride up Pacific Heights.
The air was delightful, but soon the
ed to "fumigate" the car with one of
the vilest smelling weeds imaginable.
We were obliged to endure him on the
return trip too, so we did not derive
much pleasure from the outing.
There is one company in Honolulu de-
serving of much credit for enforcing
NO Smoking on it's cars, and they
have evidently not lost patronage from
the innovation.
Let the Orpheum Company request the
opinions of the leading and intelligent
wonderland men-of the city, as did
the Electric Car Co., and abide by the
result
Are men so selfish that they cannot
refrain for few hours from smoking?
If they cannot, they might take advan-
tage of the time between the acts; but
perhaps the selfish, or Interesting
Man." as he calls himself, requires that
time for consuming drinks. Such as he
will brutality say, as the Honolulu Wo-
man rightly surmised, IF you don't like
the smoking, you can stay at home" No
gentleman would say that, and it does
not solve the problem for

A Mans Protest.

Editor Advertiser:-I first read an ar
ticle as protest from a lady in regard
to men smoking in the Orpheum
amongst ladies. Next comes the an
swer from the man behind the cigar.
Mr., Editor let me chip in as the man
without the cigar. Although in days
CONS by I smoked from four to five CT
gars per day, 1 will say that any gentle
man having respect for ladies, espe-
cially where people are boxed in. will
not pull out one of his punks or dyna-
mites probably made by Wong Fat and
Co, and start it agoing amongst wom-
en- folks. 1t may be true while some
gentleman is enjoying the play and eli
gar, he is having two enjoyments at the
same time. What about those that do
not use the filthy weed, as said little
Robert Reed. Must they stay at home
so that the gentleman behind the cigar
may enjoy all the good things? We
must not forget there are many ladies
that go to the Orpheum; that their cir
from going to the opera house for the
want of fancy cloaks and a few dia-
monds. Let us give the devil his dues.
Start fifty cigars going at once in the
Orpheum will even make those on the
stage sneeze. Therefore man has time
to go to theater, time to smoke and
time to lay down and die.

AN AMATEUR ON
THE BOXING BOUT
Honolulu. May 6. 1908.

Honolulu. May 6. 1908.
Editor Advertiser:-As an impartial
spectator of the boxing exhibition al
the Chinese theater the other evening
and as one who has had considerable
experience, from an onlooker's and am
ateur's standpoint, in ringside matters,
may I, IL the interests of general fair
shed a different light upon the actions
of Millett as viewed by those who yell
ed Foul and Coward" on the even
ing in questions? 1 personally know
neither Millett nor the referee, but I
know the rules they We're fighting I'M
der and the occurrence so closely re-
sembles a similar experience with Jack
Dempsey. the we'll known fighter, that
1 make this attempt to prevent future
misunderstanding.
Dempsey was often called a foul
fighter by onlookers when referees gave
him decisions. On breaking in clinches
Dempsey, the moment he was clear, if
only by an inch, swung for his oppon-
eHl anu was OLtSlt lOO qulSh 1Oi tllC le1b-
ter's guard. This looked foul, but was
fair fighting. Douglass, the sailor, fights
in clean British style, ignoring short
jabs and quick work and depending upon
his strength and weight. He however
mixed it up with Miilett in the start, in
the first clinch. After mis- claim of foul,
the referee told both the contestants
to go on with the fight. which Millett
did. Douglass heard his claim over
ruled and should have been ready.
The audience should remember that
what looks like a foul is often not so
and should ask themselves if they are
prepared to swear that Millett's hands
We're not free, if only by an inch. If
they We're free, for only that fraction,
it was not a foul.
1t should be remembered that this
was not a match for points. Millett
may have been too eager, but there was
a purse on the other end of the fight.
Millett intended to become a resident
and a lost battle would ruin his chances
while it would not hurt Douglass any.
Fiddling for two or three rounds might
have amused the audience and Millett
was undoubtedly always the better
man, but he did not want to take
chances. He is a we'll known boxer
with the Olympic Club and would not
have stayed with that establishment or
won it's championship were he what
the press has represented him to be- a
foul fighter. Give the man fair play
and the benefit of the doubt.
