The Modern Method.

They're initiating William.
You can hear him yell and shout.
They viii soon proceed to take his
Vermiform appendix out
You can hear their yells OF triumph,
And It makes your blood frappe.
They're initiating William
In the good old fashioned way.
They'll tie him with a clothesline
To the track and then collect
fl the microscopic pieces
For the coroner to inspect.
Don't be hasty in your judgment.
Do not interrupt their play.
They're initiating William
In the strictly modern way.

LUCAS THROWS
UP THE SPONGE
DECIDES THAT HE Will NOT BE
A CANDIDATE FOR BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS.

upervisOr Jack Lucas is not a can
didate for denomination. He has po-
sitively announced his retirement from
the band of political aspirants and his
name will not go before the next Re-
publican County convention as a can
didate for a supervisoral nomination.
The announcement of the retirement of
Lucas came as a big sunrise for it
had up to that time, been supposed that
Lucas would be one of the strongest
candidates the party would nominate
1t was certain that he welded a great
influence in party politics,
But business and the wishes of his
family have caused Lucas to decide to
retire from public life. Yes" he said
this morning Il am not a candidate for
supervisor. 1 have come to the con-
clusion that 1 have no more time to
give to public matters and that 1 will
have to retire and attend to my private
business. The position of supervisor
requires a lot of time and cannot
devote any more. of my efforts to filling
the office. One gets nothing for it
and is too often criticized and 1 am go
ing to retire"
Sheriff Brown was surprised this
morning when he heard of Lucas with
drawal from the fight. II am sorry to
hear" said Sheriff Brown that Lucas
has decided to withdraw He was a
good man to work with and he was
true blue"

MAY
OPPOSE KUHIO
REPORT THAT THE MAUI MAN
MAY RUN FOR DELEGATE TO
CONGRESS.

A rumor has come from Maui to the
effect that that island will want to put
H. P. Baldwin up for Delegate to Con-
gress. The convention is to be held
this year in Wailuku and it is said
that there is considerable feeling on
the island against Kuhio. Baldwin
was formerly a member of the Senate
and has long been a leader in island
affairs. He is the heaviest owner of
many Maui plantations, being. presi-
dentdent of many companies, and his
influence is paramount in the affairs of
the island.
There is considerable Republican OPP
position to Kuhio on various islands,
but at the same time he has very
strong support, especially of Hawaii
ans, and it is believed that they will
turn out very active for him at the
primaries.

WILL GIVE SITE
FOR A CATHEDRAL
CROKER HEIRS TO DONATE
BLOCK ON MOB HILL TO EPIs-
COPAL CHURCH.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 13-In place
of the palatial residences which once
graced the brow of famous Mob Hill
and ELECTED the admiration of every
visitor to the Pacific coast, a magnih-
cent cathedral is likely to rear it's
spires heavenward from the lofty ele-
walton The block upon which stood
the residence of the late Charles Croc-
ker and the home of the Will H. Croc-
ker, which is bounded by California,
Sacramento, Taylor and Jones streets
is likely to be decided to the Episcopal
diocese of this city to be used as a site
for it's cathedral, diocesan house and
divinity college
ut is very appropriate" said VIII
Croker yesterday, when asked wheth-
er the heirs to the Crocker estate in
tended to donate that property to the
Episcopal diocese. 1T is exactly in
keeping with our sentiment to devote
that block to the building of a cathe-
dral in order to perpetuate the MEM
cries and associations so dear to all Of
us, which will forever cling to that
locality. 1t has long been the inten-
ton of the members of our family to
consecrate that block to such uses as
you speak of, and most of those in
terested in the property have given
their consent. Only two of the heirs
have not done so yet, but there is no
doubt that they will give their con-
sent when asked. The property has
not been decided nor has any paper
been drawn up, but it will be done as
soon as the people to whom the land is
to be decided are ready to build"
