ROOSEVELT WEDDING
PRESENTS MAKE TALK

WASHINGTON. February 6.-Doe'
the Constitution follow the flag or Mis-
Alice Roosevelt? Her wedding invi,a'
tons bear the proud crest Of :he Pres
ident OF the United States.
Ali Washington is talking today
about the gifts TO Miss Roosevelt ant
/ their probable enormous cost to her
| if she has to pay the duty on the
superb presents from the four quarters
of the globe. that are en- route 10 the
White House.
The question of the legality of the
/ acceptance of the wedding gifts by an
American woman from foreign poten-
tates was raised by no less a person
than former President Cleveland
About the time of the marriage of
President Cleveland and Miss Frances
Folsom, the following statement was
printed here and was evidently given
out at the White House:
The President cabled to the Sultan
Of Turkey a defamation of an offer Of
a wedding present to Mrs. Cleveland
which had been made through Min
lister Cox, saying that while he appre-
ciated the kindly motives of the Sui
tan, he felt that the acceptance of the
gift would be in violation of the Con-
stitution.'
1t is said also that John Sherman,
wnen Secretary of State, declined to
receive a gift from the Khedive of
Egypt, although he could have receiv-
ed it by act of Congress. grr
Treasury Department officialsd now
insist that there is nothing to prevent
Miss Roosevelt from receiving gifts
from foreign princes or a prelate.< In
fact, she has done so within the last
few months and paid the duty on the
dutiable gifts.
1t is a weII-known fact that officials
of this government can not receive
gifts from foreign nations unless they
are permitted to receive them by act
of Congress- There are several small
gifts now at the State Department
awaiting the action of Congress be-
fore the persons to whom they were
offered can receive them. The Treas
ury Department made no question in
the case of Miss Alice Roosevelt and,
according to their statement, they
would make no protest in the case of
any other American woman who could
get present from any-king, emperor
or sultan, providing she paid the duty
or the duty was paid by the sender.
The Department OF Justice also made
no question whether Miss Alice Roose-
welt was an official parsonage, nor did
the State Department in the case of
Miss Roosevelt's acceptance of gifts
from the Sultan of Suiu, the EN-
press Dowager of China and the EN-
press of Japan
The official opinion was In fact that
she was and is an unofficial citizen
If that be so there must be a dis
,tinction between the wife of a presi-
dent and the daughter of a president,
Mr.. Cleveland maintaining evidently
that the wife of a president comes
under the official class.
Miss Roosevelt certainly is having an
unusual time, between the meshes Of
Cupid, the tangles of the tariff and
her official or unofficial relation to the
starry flag and the Constitution

FOR BENEFIT OF TREE
PLANTERS.

An important matter respecting the
Honolulu Improvement Committee was
explained by r. S. Hosmer, one of the
members. This committee is composed
of the leading horticulturalists of the
city and held itself ready to serve any
of the road improvement clubs at any
time. the members being willing to
visit any part of the district to give
advice as to tree planting. Expert
Robinson would not go into this. his
snecialtv being the advising regarding
large scenic effects
PARKING OF-KALAKAUAA AVENUE.
In the course of debate, Mr. Mac
farlane alluded to the death of the
Waikiki parking scheme but the re-
mark was challenged by Mr. Thurs
ton, who thought that a row of trees
occupying only four feet in the center
of the broad roadway would be an
Improvement. The road now was a
long, windy, dusty two mile stretch.
he declared, and the parking proposed
would take no more off the road than
the recently destroyed kiawe trees. to
which no objection had been made
The same speaker also opposed the
idea of botanical garden on Punch
bowl The thing had been tried some
year ago ana Ialled- IN one of the
valleys good site for such a garden
could be selected
THREATENING THE BILLBOARDS.
An attack on the unsightly telephone
poles and billboards had just got
nicely under way when darkness set
tied on the meeting but the speakers
were not to be checked. The idea of
a refusal TO buy the goods advertised
was greeted as a good one although
the fear that such an organized move
ment. even if restricted TO biIlboards
outside Of the business centers, would
orlhg the committee before a grand
jury dampened the enthusiasm of some.

An investigation into this legal ques-
ton will be made.
At the next meeting of the commit
tee each representative must be ac-
credited from his club. Bylaws and
constitution will be prepared for pres
entation and adoption at this meeting
The meeting adjourned to the call of
the chair.

skirmishing for ways and means it was
decided to request the road improve

The use of autos to take Mr. Robin

and modern pictures Of various schools The best
Of the old pictures are the large portraits, which,
Irrespective Of their origin well calculated to
make good decorative effect in the halls OF spa
cfous houses We may specify the Young Count
de Feria with His Favorite Dog" by Cornel1s de
Vos; the Portrait of a Nobleman." by Henry
Stone; the Don Fernando Of Austria" by Claudio
Coello; the Portrait Of Sir Francis Leigh, by
Paul Van Soner, and the Mime Rigaud." attrib-
uted TO Hyacinthe Rigaud- Here and there are
few smaller things which, IN modest way. have
attractive qualities notably the Lady Erskine and
Child" by Francis Cotes. the Mrs. Fitzherbert.
given to Cosway, and the Village Gossps." by
Francis wheatley.
The modern pictures mostly popular subjects
from clever though not renowned brushes, with a
few things interspersed that lift themselves above
the rIlck. The ''Sheep and Lambs" by Troyon is
a handsome bit of painting, and there is merit In
the Catching Butterflies Of Hellbuth. the En-
trance TO a Village" Of Thaulow. and the examples
Of RaffaeIn. Weeks Rico and Carrier-Belleuse. The
big Salon piece by Jacquet. la Pavane," a souve-
mir Of the collection Of Nine Humbert is an
ceIlent specimen OF the gay and facile section Of

At the annual dinner tonight the principal toast

In speaking on the need OF good citizens and the
obligation on the Catholic Church to furnish and
train such. he said;
The question Of good government in America Is
essentially moral and only incidentally a poHO1-

The Catholic Church is at home in the Aaeri-

healthy life And. TO my mind at least IL IS no
less certain that she is here not TO undermine, put
to strengthen our political hberes not to pervert,
and thus control, but to sustain ana PURIFY our
popular government.
1t is of vet greater moment 10 the Church TO have
her children truly believe, and show forth by their
lives how truly they do believe, that no man can
be a good Catholic who is not also good citizen.
1t is not enough that this doctrine be affirmed in
our catechism declared by our preachers. II
must be recoEnized in lives When there shall
be no unworthy citizen who Is also IN name q
no enemy whom any good man will wish to be her
