Bryant and family, late of Brook
haven, to our town. They occu-
py portion of Miss Hattie Coop
er's residence.
Mrs. D. NJ. Lee has some of the

would think we were deviating
from the truth.

would count for mighty little in
Lawrence county.
From and after the 9th of No

the effect that the civil war is
over, but it's the naked truth.
We have been working at it for
ages-there's no way to compute
the length of time negotiations
have been in progress-and at last
our efforts are rewarded with gilt
tering and unlimited success,
which only goes to verify the
truthfulness of the axiom that
"all things come to him who
waits. "

COTTON WAREHOUSES;.

The Southern Cotton association is
To have a better system of Gotten
warehouses in the south, and has
gone SO far as 10 have plans prepared
Ter the proper warehouses. These
plans Will be ready i'll a few days fols
distribution 10 any section of the
country that desires them. In fur.
ther discussion upon the subject of
warehouses President Harvey Jordan
of the Southern Cotton association
says:
.'rhc Southern Cotton association is
now dircctn2 its efforts along the
line of having better care taken of the
staple after il is put in a marketable
condition and encouraging the build
ing of modern, up-to-datc warehouses;
in every cotton growing county where
from 5000 to 1000 bales are annually
handled.
The association is having prepared
plans and specifications with blue
prints of a number OF modern ware
houses which will meet the wants and
conditions of different localities. and
Will be prepared in the near future &c
81 nd these plans and specifications tf
any county which desires TO build {
mClcrn warehouse. Letters for in
formation of this kind are already
being received and interest is hcins
greatly aroused in all sections of The
country along the lines of securing
more adequate and better facilities fol
handing the staple i'll the future.
"Thc cld-tashioned brick warehouse

kind should he constructed. The diff
ference in the cost of modern ware

WHEN BILKlNS TOOK TO TONIC

Bflkins had been feeling undef the
weather for solno time and the doc
tor told him he must take a tonic.
Rillins decided TO try it, He rather
liked the idea, as the tonic consisted
of some nice chDcolate-c0atcd tablets
with a glass of port wine after each
meal. Bikins felt the effect almost
Immediately. His appetite improved.
II should be stated also that Bil6in5
is an econoical man. especially with
| his wife, whose expenditures fGl the
| houschGId purposes he has curbed by
limited allowance.
Bilhins, appetite and general health
improved, but his disposition became
seriously impaired He Was always
cross when he was hungry, and since
the tonic began to get in its work he
was always hungry. He complained
about the scant supply Of feed.

Ilins smiled This, however, was
when he talked with hs friends Be
tween him and his wife the situation
vas getting a uitle strained.
Finally affairs got to Il climax. They
had English mutton chops that night,
and there were five on the chop plate.
Usually there were only three, but
Bilkins thought these We're rather
small for English mutton chops. He
helped his wife to one and proceed
ed To dispose Of three. He stripped
the bones and then looked hunsfilN
at the remaining chop.
Wont You have the remaining

that seemed tG court refusal.

PERlLs OF THE DRESS SUIT

Correspondents OF New York
pcWSpapCr have been discussing the
important question whether a young
man on salary of fifteen dollars per
Vee1 should have 4 dress suit. An
earnest philosopher at Seneca Falls
sees in The dress suit peril when
owned by young man who has thi.,
modest income. He docs not consider

tEinss on fifteen dGlIars a week. He
set i'll debt, he robs his employers

thus becomes the cause of its owner

would hc more beautiful and joyful

dress suit are unobjectionable. Life
would he less worth living without
them. But it seems tolcrably plain
that the fifteen dollar young man
had better postpone Indulgence in
Them until his salary shall have been
considerably increased. The attempt
tc carve out dress suit career on a
sack coat income has kept many men
busy doGging creditors the best part
ef their lives.

The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1905-01-11

There is no need to discredit the ca
bled announcement that sugar has been
sold for February delivery for five and
an eighth cents a pound. The quota
lions received by the Planters Associ-
ations are the quotations upon which
Hawaiian sugar is sold But it takes
sale Of two hundred tons to establish
a quotation for this purpose. There
may be many sales Of smaller amounts
at higher prices than those last quot
ed, to which no attention viii be paid
by the correspondents Of the Planter
because they DO not establish a quota
ton. AT the same time they Indicate
the trend Of the market. SO a sale for
February delivery at five and an eighth
cents may have bearing on the mar
ket, and hence be Of value, although II
does not directly establish a quotation
Tor the sale Of Hawaiian sugar. So
long as statement Of this kind Is cor
rect, II has news value, even If some
people by inattention, Ignorance or
carelessness may draw erroneous in
ferences from it.

Nevertheless, Governor Carte seems
to have allowed himself to be awed by

But the politically wise soon knew It,.
Crabbe's services to the Territory, his

Carter, were all forgotten. Having

the party, he now finds himself a iv-
