time is drawing near for the general
commemoration Of the advent to the
earth OF the Prince Of Peace that the

As will be remembered, President
Roosevelt little over "A year ago vas
requested to call second peace con-
ference to discuss matters left over

the establishment of an International

committee members have unanimously
expressed the opinion that the time is
not yet come for the realization OF that
ideal II IL possible that matter win

gathering but there are other import

world now IL prepared.
President Roosevelt Gent invitations
to the various foreign governments and
received favorable replies except from
Russia and Japan. these countries then

August, however, the Russian repre-
sentative III this country, In behalf Of
the Car, requested the President TO
waive his invitation in order that the
Car who issued the invitations to the
first conference might call the second.
President Roosevelt courteousy con-
invitations, and now the nations are
simply waiting for favorable time for
the conference to meet.
Possibly Russia cannot take part IN
second congress of that nature. until
her internal troubles are settled. But
the cause is nevertheless before the ma

It is really not surprising that famine
should follow the war. Many japanese

been considerably reduced. The cost

St. Petersburg, Dec. 14.-via Eydt- kuhnen, Dec. 15.-It seems to be be- yond question that bloody collisions have occurred between troops and the united peasantry and workmen in the streets of Riga during which machine guns were used. The situation is most serious in the country which is prac- tically abandoned to the revolutionary bands, owing to the concentration of troops in the cities and towns. Against some of the estates where the landlords aided by a few faithful adherents, are attempting to protect their property, the revolutionists are conducting reg ular military operations. They Ieduc- ed the garrison on the estate of Baron Non Loewis to submission after a ma jCrity of the defenders had been killed and plundered and burned the build ings and carried off the baron.

ORIGINATED "GRAND OLD MANI

r The Rev. Edward Lloyd Jones of Manchester. England, is credited with having originated the phrase "the grand old man" as applied to Mr. Glad stone. During the Irish agitation it became necessary that detectives should follow MT. Gladstone for the purpose of protection, and as the lib = eral leader lived at Hawarden, in Flint shire, that county, then governed by Quarter Sessions, was asked to pay the bill. The magistrates, neariy all tories, in those days, objected Whereupon MT. Lloyd Jones, who was 'hen a min ister at Rhyl, promptly called an in dignation meeting. Ee asked a law yer who was present to state whetnr- if the life of a common tramp was in peril, 1t was not the duty of the county to protect him. The lawyer said that undoubtedly it was. Then" shouted Mir. Jones, 'if it is the duty of this county to protect the beggar at our doors, are We going to allow the prec- ious life of that grand old man at Ha- warden to go unprotected?" That meeting settled the Quarter Sessions objections and the title stuck.

This vocabulary unfor- tunately was lost Professor Garner can make strange monkey drink by saying a certain word and with an- other word he can make it eat and with another word he can frighten it.

"The Panama situation is the big

HUNTING
FOR NEWS
An Elusive Item Has
Strings All Over
the Island.

The Advertiser wanted to get a
story last night from a man who was
held in the station house. It wanted
the information badly, for the man in
custody was sailor from the bark
James Nesmith, held as witness in the
case of the death of a sailor named
Eidman, who had fallen from the
ships rail to the wharf yesterday
morning.
Permission was asked of the receiv-
ing clerk to see the sailor.
"You'll have to see Captain Ka-
nae,o was the response. "He's out
side.''
Captain Kanae was found on the
sidewalk leaning against a telegraph
pole. The same request was put to
the captain. He smiled.
ooh, you IL have to see the receiv-
ing clerk about that-I've nothing to
do with it,
The reporter trotted back to the re-
ceiving clerk.
'"The captain says it's up to you, -
said the reporter. s'The story / IN
after has nothing whatever to do with
this case.'
eve got nothing to do with it, -
was the clerk IS answer. "You might
see Lieut.. Leslie,' came on the winds
as the reporter reached the vicinity of
the post-ofice.
From the Advertiser office the re-
porter called up the police station and
asked for Leslie. He answered. No,
he couldn't give permission. The re-
porter would have to see the Deputy
Sheriff, Jack Kalakiela.
Recourse to the telephone central
elected the information that Kalakiela
had no telephone. Assistant Sheriff
Henry Vida was next tried. Some one
at his house said that Mr.. Vida had
gone to Waialua for the day. The re-
porter might ring up Andrew Cox
down there. A perusal of the pages
of the telephone book revealed the
fact that Andrew Cox was not tele-
phone subscriber.
Last of all, Sheriff Brown was rung
up. No, he was not in the city. He
had gone to Waianae. Deputy Sheriff
Chris. Holt IS house was rung up. The
reporter was informed from there that
the Sheriff had gone to Waianae, pos
sibly to catch train. Waianae court
house was tried with no better success.
And so the police kept the mystery
under lock and kev-although re-
porter will occasionally enter where an
angel would fear to tread. entrance was
not gained to the particular cell in
which the carefully guarded witness
was held.
And people wonders at times why the
papers don't get all the news.
