Plight of Man From Hawaii Who Came Town for Good Time
and Got Himself Into Curious Prcdicament

sTen days in this town with $4,000 and
not able to get q place to sleep indoors or
bite to eat is something that may not seem
possible, but can make my affidavit Of a
case to that effect" remarked the man
with the tan shoes and white spats, as he
smoothed down a rough spot in his silk
hat with an expanse Of silk handkerchief.
1t was In the days whan l was in New
York fresh from the land Of superhuous
novels, Hawaii. Just this season of the
year, when vacation stalks wide through
the land.
Il was walking across Madison Square
soliloquizng on the bench popula ion Of the
metropolis when dirty figure jumped up
from seat and grabbed me frantically
by tho hand. ! wasn't feeling any too
cheerful and was about to shove the fellow
away when I caught a aeeting, familiar
look in the CRIME Of his face.
1T took me a second or so to make proper
souhdtnss, and when struck bottom

biggest sugar planters In all the islands,
q man worth his millions to-day.

gave me apoplexy, took him with me.

and was looking more like his old self. d,
''How under the heavens did you sink

when the suspense had become too great for
me TO bear any longer go. :. -
Then he unf0lded a yarn that wouldn't
have believed from any other person in
the world, even my grandmother.
He had come to New York TO see the city
q fortnight before. and, like every ore from
the Pacific his idea Of seeing New York
was two weeks composed Of days about
twenty-three hours long.
NOT being carried away with idea of
his own ability to take arc of himself here
he very wisely went to first class bank
down on broadway and handed over $4,000
of his ron to the cashier, barking it In the
ordinary manner After that he started
out to see what might be seen by an OBJ

A SERMON ON SMOKING
A Scientific Set of Rules for Every
User Of Tobacco to Break-Ciears
Cause of Cancer

New York. Dec. 16.-"Don't smoke
more than three cigars a day. Don't
go beyond two pipefuls of tobacco a
day if you smoke a pipe Don't hold
your cigar or pipe constantly in the
same rart Of your mouth. Beware of
damp tobacco; it often contains gly-
cerine"
These "don'ts" addressed to the man
Of average strength and normal
nerves were voiced by surgeons ip
discussion of cancer of the mouth or
throat. caused frequently by excessive
and careless smoking. The occasion
of their talk is the case of Frederick
L. Power, an actor, who had just sub
mitted to an operation removing a
large part of his tongue to check a
cancerous growth. While it is not as
serted that tobacco is the cause of his
Illness. cases similar to his in which
nicotine was at least a contributary
cause were recalled.
The case of all cases cited by sur
geons as illustrating cancer caused by
tobacco is that of President Ulysses
s. Grant. He was known as one of
life. When the cancer developed it
was at once ascribed to this habit.
DR.. William A. Sem, a recognized
authority on tumor and cancer, said:
Cancer in the mouth is not neces-
sarily caused by the use of tobacco.
Cancer, as far as science has revealed
it, is due to a constant irritation in a
certain spot. For instance, the man
who smokes a dozen cigars a day, or
as many cigarettes, is apt to hold such
either on the right or left side of the
mouth. This naturally causes irri-
tation in just a particular place. and
in some cases should there be any
suggestion or sign of cancer in the
system, it is likely that the growth
would be attracted to the spot where
such irritation was caused"
Another Chicago physician, connect
ed with the relief department of a
large railroad company. said:
Every smoker should be aware
that with this tobacco he obtains no
small proportion of water. Dampen-
ing tobacco, in order TO keep it from
becoming dry, is a custom as old as
the hills, but the up-to-date method is
TO use glycerine. This gives out an
intensely Irritating vapor. In the case
of cancer, l hold the cheap tObaccOs
Of today play an important part. Ia
ken in some forms glycerine is a slim
ulant. but it's effects are extremely in
furious. and it has been known to pro-
duce temporary insanity and partial
paralysis of the brain. Smokers can
not be too careful in their choice of
tobacco"

A MARITIME MARVEL
The Task of Towing the Huge Dry
Dock Dewey to the Filipines
Has Begun

/
voyage TO the Olongapo. P. l.. naval
station yesterday. Officials repre-
senting the navy deDartment and
many officers Of the navy yard were
present on the island, and thousands
of people lined every part of the shore
from which the floating dock could be
seen, when it started on its long voy-
age. Steam whistles were sounded to
speed the clumsy craft, as il lumber
ingly followed jim the wake Of the two
colliers, Caesar and Brutus. escorted
by the Glacier. The expedition, which
is the most unusual ever undertaken.
is under the command of Commander
Harry H. Hosley, L. S. N, as Com
mander William F. Fullam, L. 6. N,
originally assigned to the command,
asked to be relieved at the last mo-
ment, owing to the fact that his sug-
gestions in regard to certain precau-
tiOns in connection with the towing of
the floating dry dock were not carried
out in all respects. Commander Hos
ley has been on duty for some time as
supervisor Of the harbor of New York.
1t is expected that the trip of the
Dewey via the Suez Canal will occu-
py three or four months.
| The experiment Of towing the huge
dock half way around the world is the
most notable feat Of its kind ever un-
dertaken, and as a consequence the
success of the venture will be watch
ed with keen interest. The task is
one Of magnitude and delicacy, but
the officials of the bureau of yards
and docks of the navy department,
under whose direct supervision the ar
rangements have been made. believe
that it can be accomplished without
unusual danger of the dock founder
ing.
The towing will be done by the gov
lernmeht itself, the supply ship Glacier
and the eolliers Brutus and Caesar
being designated as the boats to make
the tow. The colliers are both pow
erful steamers, and before entering
the naval service were employed as
merchantmen. the Brutus having been
the Norwegian steamship Peter Jeb-
sen and the Caesar the British steam
er Kingston. Both ships are of the
same speed-about ten knots an hour
The vessels have been equipped with
Especial towing apparatus so construct
ed as to keep the towing lines at the
same tension at all times and to pre-
.
seaway.
The total distance from Solomon's
Island t. the Fililines is something
over l2.eo0 miles. and as it is not ex-
pected a days tow will exceed 10f
miles. il will take over four months
to make the trip. The route decided
upon is from the Chesapeake Bay Il
Madeira. through the Mediterranean
10 the Suez Canal and across the In
dian ocean to Singapore and thence
to Manila and Olongapo. the new na-
val base where tn dock will be per-
imanently located.

In Arizona.

Miss Nora Sargent, a daughter
o. Harvey Sargent, speaking OF
her father and herself, both OF
whom are in Arizona, writes the
Gazette from Phoenix under date
of November 20, as follows:
We like Arizona, but don't
find it as warm o. as dry as we
had expected. It has rained
most of the two weeks that we
have been here, but the natives
say it is an exception, being the
worst weather for this time of the
year for twenty or more years.
So far it has been very much like
our Oregon fall weather, change
|able, one hour sunshine, then be-
fore you know it the rain is pour
ing down. But Arizona people
say that it is all right and we
should not complain unless it
rains eight days in the week as
it does in Oregon.
On our way down we stopped
at Oakland, Los Angeles, River
side and Yuma. The latter city
is in Arizona, the two former in
California. At Los Angeles we
found it SO foggy and disagree
liable that one day was sufficient.
In Riverside, where we spent
three days visiting friends, we
|also found rain, for it seemed tc
be general throughout the South
and we couldn't travel fast enough
to get out of it.
Papa says that Riverside is the
prettiest and cleanest little towr
(11.ooo inhabitants) that he has
lever seen. Indeed, it well de.
serves the name it has-"The
Pride of California; There are
beautiful little orange groves
throughout the city. Then, a:
