VIDA WAS
IN THE JAIL
He and Schmidt Failed
to Pay Their
Fines.

William C. Vida and Louis Schmidt,
the two confessed and convicted gam
blers who ran a gambling joint over
Kubey's place on Fort street, went to
Jail yesterday in default of the payment
of their fines. Judge Lindsay found
both men guilty of the charge in
Police Court about a week ago and
assessed fine of $50 and costs against
each.
They were given time to pay the
fines, but up to yesterday had failed to
produced a penny to the High Sheriff.
The latter suspected that one of the
pair might leave town and ordered both
men taken into custody and held until
the amounts were paid.
They were therefore arrested shortly
after noon and sent to the jailyard.
The men did not mingle with the other
prisoners-drunks and larcenists-but
kept by themselves in a cell corridor,
where they had lunch served to them
from a near by restaurant.
1t was a strange reversal of fortune
for Vida for he was formerly on the
mounted police force and took pleasure
in bringing unfortunates to the Police
Station and sending them to the same
jailyard in which he is now a prisoner.
Shortly after 4 O'Clock the fines of
both men were paid.

CUSTOMS MEN
WATCH S0lACE

Gable instructions arrived yesterday
from Washington which gave permits
sion for the Customs Inspectors to pa
troll the exits of the Naval dock where
the United States Naval transport Sol
ace is lying. When the so1ace arrived
sentries were thrown out to guard the
gateways. It was reported that the
authorities on the vessel would be re-
sponsible for the customs regulations.
and the customs guards were not per-
mitted to remain at the gates.
1t is said that while the customs in
spectors watched the gates from afar
certain seizable articles were permit
ted to pass out by the military guards,
although they may not have known
that such articles were being carried
through. The customs inspectors
seized several articles of value.
Yesterday cable instructions came to
the naval authorities to permit Collec-
tor Stackable's men to do their duty
at the naval as well as at the merchant
wharves.

DRY GOODS
BURNED Up
A Blaze in Nuuanu
Street This
Morning.

Fire at a few minutes after one
O'Clock this morning destroyed the dry
goods store of L. All Oh zap on the
Eva side of Nuuanu street about mid
way between King and Hotel streets.
A police officer doing his beat along
King street noticed great masses Of
black smoke rising from Nuuanu street
buildings. He Immediately turned in
an alarm and within five minutes the
firemen were on the scene and seven
minutes later had what appeared to be
a very dangerous fire cornered. The
chemical engine was used and did its
work we'll so that but little water had
to be thrown upon the flames.
The store is said to be about four
months old and only medium sized
stock of dry goods was carried. When
the fremen arrived on the scene the
whole interior of the place was abiaze
and had probably been burning for at
least half an hour before an alarm was
turned in. The blaze was confined to
the one store and after it had been
put out an inspection showed that the
entire stock of goods was either burned
or completely deIuged with water. The
wooden fixtures We're also destroyed.
Instead of turning in an alarm the
Chinese who first discovered the blaze
stood on the opposite side of Nuuanu
street and heaved rocks at the upstairs
windows of the place in an effort to
awaken people whom they supposed
lived over the store. 1t turned out
later that the upper floor was not oc-
cupied.
The damage will amount to few
hundred dollars. The origin of the fire
could not be traced this morning.

when Johnne's body come pitching down. He

he shot down out of sight
Clancy jumped to the rail in time to Peter from
topping it. and Just in time, he said aerward
to see the boy splash in the slip below. He yanked
Peter to his feet, and then without turning around
he called out: "A couple of you run to the head of

He must have been shaken by the
shock of the fall; but guess he had his
senses with him when he came up again,
for in no time he was striking toward

gang down TO the dock and was Just in

ran to the office of the Duncans and
told them that Johnnie had fallen into
the dock and got wet. and that it might
be well TO telephone for a doctor His
grandfather knew that it was serious
without my saying any more, and rang up
at once.
That had hardly been done when
Clancy came in the door with Johnnie
IN his arms. The boy was limp and
unconscious, and water was dripping
from him. Old Mr. Duncan was worried
enough; but composed in his manner for
all that He met Clancy at the door:
This way, Tommy. Lay him on this
couch. The doctor will be here in a
few minutes now. Perhaps we do
something while he is on the way. Just
how did 1t happen? and we'll know better
what to do, perhaps.
Clancy told his story in forty words:
Hes probably shook up, and his lungs
must be full of water But he NAV come
out all right-his eyelids quivered COM

and waist off He's got a lot of water in

We worked away on Johnnie, and had
the water pretty we'll out of him by the
time the doctor came 1t was hard work
for time, but it came at last to where
the doctor stood up rested his arms for

TERRYyILLE GROWING.

Growth During Past Year Was Larger
 Proportionally That Any Other Vil-
 lage. fal
 The growth of Terryville last year, was larger proportionally, than that of any village in the state. The directory shows a percentage of growth that has not been equalled by any village in the state, in the last 20 years except in the case of Torrington during the boom period there between 1880 and 1890. The directory shows that there were on the list in Terryville in 1901, SIS names and this list included 36 removals. The new directory issued a few weeks ago contains 1,072 names which includes 79 removals. There were added in pre- pairing this list 319 names. The number residents in Terryville in 1903 when the directory was made up was SAP and the number in 1904 was 999 Figured by percentages the increase of 1157 names means a growth of TIA per cent. Multi ply this by 10 years of growth at the same rate and the village would be two and three-fourths times as large as it is now.

THE JOY OF WORK.

l President Eliot referred to the .joy in york; Frank K. Foster sneered at
 it and his audience laughed at it, and
 the workingnan who cannot appreciate the fact and the value of joy in work.
 And President Eliot is right, although for a large proportion of the working
 men of the land the phrase Is unknown Iexcept as a bit of sentimentality that sometimes makes them curse it as a ltaunt from their more fortunate fellow | ing of what work is. Nevertheless joy in work'' is the secret of success,
 and the absence of it is the cause of many failure. Oppressive conditions, against which the workingman has 8 right to rebel, sometimes drive all of I the joy out, but the tendency of the times is to crowd the joy out, whether contributions contribute to that end or
 not. The average young man enters a ltrade or seeks a joy to-day for what he
 can get out of it, and in nine cases out of 10 his interest in the trade or job
 ceases when he has got the agreed
 wages out. He tries to get to work on time, if he has to, and he is sure to quit work on time, or to charge double
 wages for the overtime he works. He
 has no joy in his work, and the result l is that he develops into the slave, the
 servant of his job, and finds in his work onl what he is looking for in his wages. l The man who seeks a job because he Hikes it, and who takes a pleasure in This work is not an imaginative creation, Iby any means. He exists, although he lis not often found in the front ranks
 of labor organizations, to be sure. He
 masters his trade, rather than enslav- ling himself to it, makes 1t serve him land boost him along to greater opportu- mites and better wages. He is looking for something besides the stipulated wage in his job, and he finds it. and the man who finds an opportunity to learn in his job, increased ability for himself and increased value for his em- iployer is ordinarily found by increased
 wages without losing much time in lworrying or striking for them. Presi-
 dent Eliot ''joy in work" is a good thing
 for any young man to cultivate.-From the Haverhill Gazette.
