| "Boo-hoo," yelled a small boy at the
Aquarium yesterday afternoon, "boo-
hoo"
what is it, dearie?" asked a fond
mamma.

little yellow fish, sobbed the little one,

| The fish were feeling real good yes
terday They seemed to have spruced
themselves up to be in keeping with
the lovely day and to have donned
their best tempers. Even the black
and tan goldfish and the big, bearded
oopu in the great basin, fraternized
socially.
The only inmates Of the Aquarium
which didn't seem to be feeling good
were the blase-looking humuhumu and
the cells. The former, for some reason,
looked bored to death and tired enough
to give up the ghost. AS for the cells,
they belong to the night and can only
be seen to advantage in the dark. In
the sunlight they blink and yawn afro
ciously.
One of the healthiest of the exhibits
is the kumu, or pink surf mullet, one
of the finest eating fish Of the local
waters. These fellows appear to be
well contented with their lot and spend
their time working their barbs into
interstices of the coral, apparently
searching for food with these sensitive
appendages.
Perhaps the most attractive tank at
present is that in which the big family
of uu is domiciled. Their brilliant scar
let makes the tank resemble sea
flower garden. These uu are extraor-
dinarily intelligent fish, returning the

Judging from appearances, there had
been trouble in the glass reserve where
live a swarm of ahuluhulu and a soli-
tary akule. The latter had a particu-

having been mixed up in a scrap with
his companions and succumbed to force
of numbers.

be wondered at, however-he has the
soul of jellyish.
The squid were keeping the Sabbath
peacefully and the Holsters appeared
to be telling tales to the shrimps, per-
haps to the end that if they were good
and left the Holsters antennae unmo-
Tested, they'd live to grow as big as
they, some day.
Nothing was doing in the crab cage,
with the exception of one hermit crust
acean, which was carefully trimming
the petals of the anemone which was
growing on his shell.
1t was an ideal day for the beach,
but, somehow, the crowds at the re-
sorts were not overly large. But for
the fresh off-shore breeze it would have
been uncomfortably warm.
High tide came along just between
luncheon and dinner, and with it a
surf which helped out aquatic diver
sions wonderfully.
Many bathers patronized the Ha-
waiian Hotel annex, their natatorial
feats being watched by numerous spec
tators from the beach. One party had
particular fun at game wherein a
ball was used, as in water polo.
The Moana Hotel and Waikiki Inn
each entertained many visitors who
found it pleasant sitting beneath the
cloud-1ecked blue sky, enjoying the
pure air and looking at the youth and
beauty disporting in the surf.
There was plenty of surf riding, both
with boards and canoes, and a sailing
canoe cruising beyond the breakers

scene
Several families picnicked beneath
the ironwoods in Kapiolani Park and
later strolled about, watching the coots
in the sedge-covered lagoons, admir-

they are usually given credit for, and
generally having a delightful time.
Over at the baseball game a crowd
of interested humanity watched a
stage of the struggle for the pennant
of the winter league.
So the day passed and sunset came
with its stiffness and sweet scents
And as the tiny lights peeped out
among the palms, the tail end of the
Sunday throng set out on their home
ward way.
The Zoo was well patronized yester-
day and the animals and birds as
usual interested instructed and
particularly the emus.
Children fed sweet oranges to the
bobcat and candy to the mongoose
with charming impartiality and the
band entertained the grown-up with a
liberal selection of new tunes.
The Zoo is a reliable joymaker. Its
popularity is established.

THE IRWINVILLE COURIER.
BY JOHN L HERRING.

all the time regarded with the
kindly feeling we have for any
man who is earning his living
we believe him to have mel bel
the ability or inclination to fulloW
the course his sheet has done,
and the only censure deserved
by him is allowing the use Of his
name as shield for the man
who is doing the work.
And it is this man, who cow
ardly skulks behind another
mans name; who, like the bush
whackor, aims his gun of slime
from cover, or the assassin, who
hides in the dark that he may
stab in the back, with whom we
decline to have a controversy.
We cannot train rifles on cock
reaches, and he who fights in the
open scorns the methods of the
guerilla. We cannot handy words
with him for the same reason
that the self-respecting man can
not argue with a fool or fight
with a cripple; not even can we
afford to kick a dirty dog, lest
his slime adhere to the foot that
delivers the blow. Besides, we
have learned long since not to
barter bil!ingsgate with one
whose nature aud environment
makes him an adept therein.
But should the time ever come
when we could stoop to follow
the suggestion of his depraved
taste, and enter a controversy
with one who is both an ass and
a blackguard, we would most GER
tainly select him as our oppo-
nent, being the most brilliant ex-
ample of both we ever had the
misfortune to read after.
But if a plying providence
ever visits his deformed brain
with the light of reason, he will
learn that abuse is not argument,
and that Safeguarding the editor
of this paper will convince no
man, worthy of the name, that
the cause of the new county OF
Tiff is unjust or that the claims
of Irwinville's pap-suckers are
right.
Meanwhile, we apologize to our
readers for this temporary trans
gressiou, no one regrettlng more
than the writer the necessity for
skinping a skunk on their prem
ses.

A 'PedCherin0"
Editor John L. Herring, Of the Tifton z
zette, Dissects the Circular Issued BY
the Irwinville "Press Committee.
From the Triton Gazette.

From the Triton Gazette.
A friend sends the Gazette q
copy Of a circular issued by the
Press Committee (notice that
press" will you? Pinch' would
be better) of Irwinvlle.
AS a curiosity, and an example
of the desperate straits oppo-
nents Of the new county meas
ure are driven to, it is a valuable
souvenir. It is also one Of the
greatest examples of mona nent-
al gall we have ever come in con.
tact with.
To correctly understand the
circular, we should first look at
the personnel OF those issuing it.
The document is probably re-
suit of the recent mass" meet
ing at that place, aud from these
we can judge tie makeup of that
enormous" aggregation.
Of the five signatures to the
document, four are men whose
bread and butter depend upon
the county site Of Irwin remain
ing where it is, and the fifth a
county official whose largest
property holdings are in Irwin
vile.
Of the five, only one is a native
of Irwin county. Could no old
citizen of that com monwealth be
induced to sign it? 1t is only
natural to suppose the commit
tee" made the best showing pos
sible; then tits almost pitia BILE to
note the marshaling Of their fore
es: Two courthouse lawyers,
two politicians and one bag
holder. All holding Office, o.
having their suckers glued to
the public teat! Isn't this a pref
ty bunch to assume to represent
the Woodworking yeomanry of
good old Irwin?
When a man feels his job slip
ping from under him, even the
most quiet and easy-going fellow
will develop into the most rabid
patriot that ever grew into an
anarchist. Aud each of these
five fears his occupation is in
danger.
When the mouth Of a sucker
is once firmly glued to the public
teat, the man who pulls it away
may expect the bleatings and
gyrations Of hungry calf. 1t is
the defeated politicians that make
the socialists of this country, and
these court house ringers see
defeat ahead.
The first Sca~c-crow they put
up to fris;'tra tn people they
pretend to protect is, of course,
high taxes. This is always the
argument to use to the ignotant.
To a man of means it has little
weight, but to the possessor of
four three-legged chairs and
rickety ia BILE, the prospect of an
increase of 80 cents on the 81 1000
tax levy is a bugbear that will
keep him awake of nights.
For men who live around an
old rookery of a court house
which is calculated to be knocked
by the next equinoctial gale into
cooked hat, their dreams of
reckless expenditure on the part
of the proposed new counties
would do credit to the visions of
a Croesus. For four counties
they figure the enormous sum of
100000, and give only the bouu-
daries of the present county of
Irwin to raise this sum.
! Truth is, that not. one-half this
sum will be Needed, even if four

Of course, the little fact Ga

of even an insignificant build

and with the present court hoN

hobbies, there is no telling I'll
much the building will cost,
judging by the past, what it u
look like after it is built.
The tax rate ia Irwin is nd
and has been for years, ND
higher than that in Berrien,
Irwin's public buildings are
disgrace to the county, and
would have to search for
county site with a fine-.od
comb. If these conditions ri

the Gazette has refrained from
treating the legal advertising
bulletin published there serious
1y. Even the widest flights Of
exaggerated fancy and most base
less and unfounded statements
we have been fain to pass with a
plain denial, approaching the
fact that, in the terror induced
by fear of the loss of his job,
sometimes youth is scarcely
mentally responsible, and that
neither it's standing or circula-
ton entitled it to the space.
Again, we have never regarded
the sheet as fully belonging to
the newspaper class. 1t was not
founded to meet any popular
need or public demand; not even
a want, for Irwin already had a
surplus of better newspapers,
but the sole purpose of it's cre-
alton was to put in the pockets
of it's Boss a few dollars of the
taxpayers money which were
going into the tills of legitimate
newspapers. Made possible only
by piece of rank partisan and
class legislation, it was conceived
in covetousness and brought
forth in greed; Matched, like the
vampire bat, to feed on the life
blood of the taxpayer; born, like
the mule, to bear the burden of
it's master; with an ancestry Of
shame and posterity impossible.
When this pimple on the face
of journalism failed last year in
a conspiracy to wrest from the
people thousands of dollars to
feather its masters pocket, its
mission in life came near being
a disastrous failure, only to be
resuscitated now to obey the
dictum of its Boss, and endeavor
to mis1ead the people of that
county when they try to better
their condition.
The organ and mouthpiece of
a ring of pettifogging courthouse
lawyers and sche ming politicians
it sees in the dawning of an era
of progress and public utility the
death-knell of it's own life as a
sucker at the public teat, and it's
swan-song is a torrent of invec-
tive against the leaders in fight
Tor a better day.
AS could not be otherwise, the
sight of the truth produces the
same effect upon il as that of
holy water is said 10 upon the
father of evil, and when confront
ed with facts, its only reply is
to howl "falsehood" or malice"
or launch into personal abuse.
Such rot can deceive no one,
for the day is past when bare
faced assertion can stand before
proven fact. AS said before,
when a man descends to delib-
crate lying there is no use to
waste words in argument; one
can only prove the truth and let
an impartial public Judge.
When the Courier says that
Irw1nville is twenty miles from
Triton, it knows the assertion is
not true
When it asserts that major
ity of the taxpayers are opposed
to the new counties, it knows
their vote on the amendment
brands this as not true.
When it says that hundreds
to be incorporated in tn county
of Tiff opposeIthe move. it knows
it utters an untruth.
That it has knowingly misrep-
resented these and other facts,
the Gazette can prove to the con-
viction of the most skeptical.
In the above, we do not wis b
to be understood as referring to
