HAWAIIAN BEAU
BRUMMEL DEAD

The death on Friday of Dandy"
otherwise known as Ioane Ukeke
John, the Jewsharp player, removes
from Honolulu one it's most pictur-
esque characters, and a man who thirty
and more years ago was constantly IN
the public eye. Few people have asso-
ciated the decrepit, tattered, blind old
man, who squatted on the Fort street
pavements, playing jewsharp and ex
tending his hat for aims with the
Dandy of old.
Thirty or forty years ago 1oane WA
the Beau Brummel of Honolulu and
gained the soubriquet of Dandy
which chung to him throughout his life
He was a relic of the days of the
Kamehamehas. He was the master OF
the hulo for the Hawaiian monarchs OF
and had mastered every known hula
dance known to his generation OF Ha-
waiians and he was the trainer of the
most fashionable dancers in his time.
Even in Kalakaua's time Ioane was to
the front in all entertainments.
Dandy designed his apparel and
his wife make his astonishing clothes
from his sketches. Kamaainas re-
member Dandy in his aarlier days
as the faultlessly dressed Hawaiian
who used to parade the streets, tre-
quenting the band concerts and all pub
lie gatherings where he could pose.
He wore velveteen jackets and trous
ers, high beaver hat, monocle, short
cane.
Of all the queer public characters,
there now remain only bill, the Blind
whistler and Manuel Rodrigues, who
worships the statue of Kamehameha.

RELIGION IN GOVERNMENT
OF AMERICA
CONTINUED from page II

broad and deep by the fathers who did
that work that will endure for all time .
Speaking of the Spanish settlements
in the two Americas, and in part of
the United States, Mr.. Highton showed
that every civil government formed on
the western hemisphere by the greatest
of all the colonizing powers in those
days was formed for the advancement
of civilization and the advancement of
the worship of personal God and the
spreading of the moral law. The colo
NAL period was a period of colonizing
by people who came to America seeking
liberty to worship a personal God in
their own way. The world had been full
of tumult, and these people left their old
world primarily for the securing of re-
ligious freedom. The idea of personal
liberty came after that, as it had al
ways followed it. 1T is a fact" said
the speaker, that the idea of the liber-
ty of man follows the idea of liberty of
religion And the government of the
United States, while it is not new
thing, presents to the world the first
successful formulation of an idea that
is in the mind of every man in the
world, of whatever race, and that is as
old as the world Every man who has
ever lived, whether consciously to him
self or not, has cherished the idea of in
dividual sovereignty. The government
of the United Sattes carries out that
idea, and it is strong enough to endure
every test. For the government of the.
United tSates is based upon the con-
ception of personal God and the moral
law"
Coming down to the third period, Mr..
Highton spoke of the division of the
people of the colonies into creeds, but
said that while each held to it's own re-
ligious belief the representatives had
compromised these creeds for the gen
eral government, with the result that
while there was a recognition of the
personal God in the general systeTa.
there was a distinct statement that
there never should be an established
church. church controlled by the gov
eminent. The people were to direct
their own religious affairs, as liberty of
government was best, but the govern
ment itself was founded upon the gen
eral conception, taking in all creeds, of
a personal God and the moral law.
THE government is not atheistical,"
said Mr. Highton, and it is not ag-
nostic. 1t is a Christian government for
Christian men and women"

People who complain of falling hair
as a rule do not know that it is the re-

pestiferous parasite burrowing up the
scalp as it digs down to the sheath in
which the hair is fed in the scalp. Be

other letter to NJ, wherein he tells her about an
addition he is making to a small edition Of
Sesame and Lilies for girls only-"just few

total inability Of Men to manage themselves
much less their wives and daughters; but it's
pretty of daughters to be Obedient and the

favor Of the papas" Now and again there is a
hint of the critic in these brief notes, as when
he says of Browning's knowledge of music:
But I think he must like it mostly for it's dis

CHEAP BOOKS.
Mr.. GOsse and Mr. BirreH Discuss Their
Value
Value.

From The London Daily Chronicle.
Mr.. Edmund Gosse. in opening the discussion,
sald that ne knew that such a proposition was
ulromantic and would not appeal TO the gallery.
He laid down that what encouraged literature
was not the number Of books circulated and
sold, but the love and worship they excited
The great disadvantage Of extreme cheapness
was that people ceased to realize the dignity
and beauty Of a book. People thought when
they had made books as cheap as New-ZeaIand
mutton or imitation lace collars they had done
great thing, but all cheap things were disre-
EarCed, and the less We paid the less we valued.
He should like books TO remain expensive,
though they should be among the things that
We're possible, and he went to relate a story
C1 how he saved up week BY week as a child to
buy for SIX shlIIings copy Of Coleridge's poems,
and the pleasure and excitement Of obtaining il
he remembered TO that day. They would guess
he was no friend TO sixpenny books, because they
directly tended TO lower the respect for books.
He should Ike TO see more Of that passionate
zeal for books which had been shown all through
the ages by the real book lovers.
Ia conclusion, Mr.. GOsse remarked that the
enthusiasm for beauty and humanity that was
an essential characteristic Of the collecting Of
books could not be cultivated unless some little
ettort and sacrifice We're necessary to obtain
them and the best interests Of literature could
rot be encouraged by spending less on book
than pound Of cherries. (Cheers)
Mr.. Augustine Birrel K. c., then rose TO op-
pose and laughingly remarked that, Mr..
G0sse had brought forward no evidence, he
would follow his example. one thing was GER

Literature was made for man. II was true the
education Of taste was a difficult problem; ii
would be much better and simpler If every one

The Rusl1in revealed in this volume is most

with his time, filed with an impatient despair of
the worlds future, yet opening his heart to
"sibyls. children and vestals" with a tender
whimsicaIity, a childIike playfulness infinitely

tiers are trifes, but the charming trifes of a
man Of genius; and they are agreeabIy rein
forced by the brief pages of recoIlections set
down by two fellow guests at Hawarden.
The first meeting between Gladstone and Rus
kin came about when both were past middle
age and it was with the latter a matter of re-
luctance. His Dearest Papa" as he called Car
lyle, abhorred Gladstone's ideas and methods,
and the disciple had distrust in his soul when

PRESIDENT IN MONTANA.
Greeted by an Immense Crowd at
Helena and Speaks from Grand
Stairway in Capitol.

Helena, Mont, May 2s.-President
Roosevelt's special train arrived here
over the Northern Pacific at $3.50
Wednesday morning. An immense
crowd was at the station to greet
the president. Around the station
a Gordon of soldiers had been sta
toned. Battery A, national guard
commenced firing presidential sa-
lutte on the arrival of the train.
Among the delegation at the sta
tion were many old-time western
friends of President Roosevelt. One
of the first persons he inquired about
was John Willis, hunter and trapper,
of Thompson, Mont, with whom he
had camped years ago in this state.
After an informal reception at the
station, President Roosevelt and
Secretary Loeb, accompanied by Gov.
Toole and Mayor Edwards, entered
carriages, and the parade moved to
the capitol. On the way the pro-
cession passed several thousand
school children massed in front of
the high school building. The main
audience was at the capitol, where
the president made 30 minutes adj
dress from the grand stairway. Aft
er the address the president was es-
corted into the state house, where
took place an informal reception. in
which Former Senator Thomas II. Car
ter, and members Of the Montana
legislature. took part.
After short drive over the city,
the president and party boarded the
special train, which had been trans
ferred to the Great Northern tracks.
