The address OF the President OF the
Associated Charities, Judge Sanford B.
Dole, on The Prevention and Cure of
Pauperisn1,' was as follows:
In selecting this subject as one for
our discussion on this occasion. [ do
not presume to offer diagnosis of the
social disease of pauperism, or a pre-
scription for its cure, but rather to
urge that its prevention and cure
should be the paramount aim of relief
work.
I would at the outset, define a pauper
as one who. being able wholly or par

line of action. and seeks living from
society without any thought of COM

Charity and the method of dealing
with its varied phases in Honolulu
from the standpoint of organized effort
was the tenor of the meeting of the
Associated Charities held yesterday aft
ernoon in the Chamber of Commerce
room. Several reports and addresses
were read by various officers all tend
ing to indicate the scope and character
of the work of caring for the poor, the
prevention of frauds, and the Kidding
of the city of many who would in time
become drags upon the public and private
purse.
The election of officers resulted as
follows:
President, Judge Sanford B. Dole;
First Vice President, Rev. Alexander
5 Macintosh;
Second Vice President, Mrs. Carl Du
Roi;
Secretary, Mrs. J. NJ. Whitney;
Treasurer, Clarence H. Cooke;
Manager, Mrs. E. F. Berger.
An interesting phase of the work of
the manager was shown when, in re-
spouse to an inquiry, Mrs. Berger stated
that few persons sent away through the
efforts of the Associated Charities ever
sent back word of thanks. Mrs. Ber-
ger stated also that it was her custom,
in many instances, when sending poor
people to other shores, to procure a pro-
n1issory note from them. These were
never afterwards lifted, but they are
carefully filed away and should the same
person turn up again at the Associated
Charities, they will be faced by the notes.
One of the most interesting papers
read was by Mrs. Sanford B. Dole,
entitled "a Glance at the Charities of
the City, which was read by the secre-
tary who referred in high terms tol
Mrs. Dole's keen knowledge of the
charity situation Mrs Dole's paper was
as follows:

Do III

1t has been said that the main
difference between insignificant men
and great men is energy, which re-
mark being interpreted means: II
you've anything to do, do it, and i
you haven't anything to do, find
something. This is not intended tc
apply to labor, as eonyentlonally ex-
pressed, but means simply the gen
eral quality Inherent in the indlvld-
ual which makes action necessary
to comfort. And it should find ex-
preston in the child before the time
comes when amalgalnation INTO the
great body of workers makes the III
dividual a unit i'll the great question
of labor versus capital.
In childhood, while the mother Is
still the motive power of the forces
that go to build up character, this
quality, or the lack of it, begins to
show, and then is when the mother
can do much toward making her boy
either an insignificant man or a
great one.-Exchange.

The Art Show.

An art show is q place where art
lists exhibit their nerve and others
their Ignorance.
A connoisscur is one who at once
upon entering an art shaw wonders
why certain pictures were hung on
the line rather than certain painters
on a telegraph pole.
An art show is less brilliant than
a horse show. But there are never
theless many women who find il
easier to talk pictures, clothes and
scandal than horses, clothes and
scandal,
Abroad an art show is called a
saloon, but in America saloons and
art shows have little or nothing in
common.
Polite usage lays down rigid rules
for the conduct of the visitor at an
art show. He is to have his stick
checked at the door, after which he
is to look at the pictures, pronounce
ing all which remind him of any
thing mere daubs and buying all the
rest.-Iife.

Case In Which "lf This Court Knows

A Pike county Missourian is cred.
tied with having first used the ex-
preston, 'Tf this court knows her
self, and she think she do"
Long before the discovery of gold
in California Pike county boy
named Blackburn, so it is said, ran
away from home and went to the
Rocky mountains, where he grew
to manhood as Indian fighter, hunt
or, trapper and mountain guide. He
became six feet four inches tall, pro-
portionately thin and marvelously
awkward. He had many encounters
with grizzlies and Indians. He was
Scared from head to foot, one eye
had been partly gouged out, his hair
was thin and coarse and stood
straight up on top of his head and
hung in every direction from the
sides. Blackburn, as might be sup
posed, was not an educated man,
but he was not lacking in keen wit
and sound sense.
When gold was discovered, Black
burn went to the mines, and the
miners, as a sort of joke, elected
him alcalde, an Office similar to that
of justice of the peace. The first
case brought before the alcalde was
that of a gambler, who while drunk
and on horseback had run over q
young Mexican woman, knocking
her down and seriously injuring her.
The trial took place in the largest
cabin in the neighborhpod, which
was packed with roughly dressed.

sci to defend him. Alcalde Rack
burn called the young woman, who
told her story in broken English,
but frankly and honestly. When she
finished, the alcalde peremptorily
ended the trial. The attorney for
the defendant protested vehement

through his hair until 1t stood up
straighter ON top than ever and re-
marked

London Relics.

In the seventeenth and eight.
zenith centuries when a London
street was newly formed its name
and date were frequently recorded
on tablet built into the wall of a
corner house. The houses them
selves were also sometimes distin-

either placed like the street tablets
or on rain pipe or inside the build

of their destruction, for every year

The Wheat Harvest

The winter wheat crop along the
Ea Coast and through the zone
south of Illinois is harvested, and
will begin to reach market during
July. Quotations in Chicago,
which is the center Of the wheat
trade and largely regulates the
world price for wheat, indicate
that the grain for July delivery, of
merchantable grade, will bring to
the farmer about ninety cents per
bushel. There may, of course, be
fluctuations in price, but wheat
has shown a steady strength dur
ing the past six months, and
this noe from any specula-
ton forcing up of the price by
traders, but purely as a result OF
home and foreign demand for the
commodity.
