''The Gambling Problem of Homo
lulu was discussed at the Methodist
church last evening by Walter g.
Smith, editor of the Advertiser
Every pew in the church edifce was oc-
cupied. C. J. Day, president of the Y
Ne. c. A, presided, opening the services
with prayer, and introducing Mr.
Smith. The musical portion of the SER
vice was devoted to the singing of sew
eral hymns by the choir and congrega'
tion, vocal solo being sung in a
charming manner by Miss Marion Bell
Mr.. Smith said:
Ladies and Gentlemen:
After Pastor Wadman had asked me
to speak tonight on gambling in Homo
lulu it occurred to me that l had testi-
field but lately in a court that I person
ally knew nothing about gambling in
Honolulu. 1 was found to be as ig-
norant on that point as the Sheriff. An
editor, like a prosecuting officer who
makes charges, a juryman who brings
in. a verdict or a judge who sentences,
must depend for his facts in any given
case upon the testimony of others,
whom he believes. OF late there has
been so much sworn expert testimony
here, leading to a notable conviction,
and the gambling evil is so freely
acknowledged. that even a stranger to
the games may talk of them without
embarrassm and with no lack of
data; and 1 trust the facts that L have
been in no gambling houses and have
l.
prive me of your confidence now that
I am here to counsel with you about
our local gambling problems.
PROOF OF PUBLIC GAMBLING.
That public gambling exists here on
a great scale was attested last year by
Sheriff Brown himself. who despite his
present lack of information, told Gov
ernor. Carter then that gambling was
too strong for the law; that he could
not suppress gambling, try as he might:
whereupon the Governor sought and
received his resignation. But very
short time ago the Supervisors declar-
ed in a letter to Sheriff Brown, that
the undisturbed activity of gamblinS 6
suggested incompetence, Indifference or
protection on the part of the police.
Newspapers which are responsible
enough to be sued for damages
have given names, dates and 10
cations of gamblers and their
games and have done it without
challenge. Finally three gamblers who
have been doing business for a long
tire under 20 eye of the police Were
exp sed by tie morning paper, convict
ed by its witnesses and fined $3.50. Are
not these facts sufficiently demonstra-
tive. first. of the prevalence of public
gambling; second, of the ease with
which the games may be stopped if an
honest effort is made to do so?

Nevertheless, in high quarters yester-
day there was certain feeling of
hopefulness noticeable, which is not
altogether accounted for on the
ground that thus far there has been
no rupture, and that the terms are
still under discussion, with a chance
of an UNDERSTANDING being reached.
The only comment vouchsafed Of
fieially was that NJ. Whites answer
seemed not altogether acceptable to
the japanese, else the conference
would have ended then and there.

close touch with the emperor, went

course seems 10 be meeting with his
full approval.
All official dispatches received
from Portsmouth after being deciph-

thereon are sometimes expressed in

LAND-eRARsERs TO BLAME.
Pittsburg Dispatch Talks of Emigra-
ton to Canada.

The somewhat startling informatio
comes from the west that the decreas-
ed population in many communities
can be traced directly to land-grab-
bers. Securing large acreage, these
corporations and individuals are hold
ing il at prices SO high that young
men have been compelled to seek en-
ployment in the cities or emigrate
to Canada, where land is good and
cheap. This sort of thing has been
the curse of the west. When it be-
gan there was 70 indication that it
would reach that point where it could
affect the population. But the drain
commenced then has been steadily in
creasing, and the natural increase in
population has been lost in the num-
Der of emigrants. When boys grew
to manhood and no longer cared to
remain at home they found that they
were unable to buy the lands taken up
by the grabbers. Canada and cities
opened their arms and there they
went as their individual tastes die

GuIIibiIity of Americans.

Americans, in spite of their reputed
shrewdness, are the most easily gull
ed of any people on earth by those
who know how to get at them Is
this merely railing accusation with
out foundation, or has it a modicum of
truth? Verify, there have been times
when it seemed that certain elements
in our population were easily shared.
Get-rich-quick schemes, promising
100 per cent profit every year have
found no lack of patrons. But this is
only vulgar finance. 1t is in the realm
of high finance and promoting that
the lambs are shorn with neatness and
dispatch. Still, Americans are not
more gullible than their cousins

The egg has seven ages, too.
AS mankind counts the years,
For first upon the breakfast scene
AS soft-boiled it appears.
Next age. though little oder grown,
Old Time has vet encroached.
With white and gold, distinct and fair,
1t greets the table poached.
And should it outlive both of these,
1t then may be inferred
That when the third stage comes around
Well doubtless see it Shirred.
Then fourth it starts to take on fat,
And if worse betide,
1t chaperoneS the rosy ham,
Or else we see it fried.
Fifth age the rapid rush of life
Has left it far from new.
So. slightly mixed and shaken up,
The scramble greets the view.
Sixth age. though still it's hard to beat,
With mincing rolled between.
Though somewhat 1eathery and tough,
An omelet's on the scene.
Then, seventh. we shall contemplate
The last and added age,
And at one throw it goes upon
And also quits the stage.
