Douglas Society

It is true that the climatic condi- tions of a season are seldom repeated in the one following. and one can nev- CT count of the effects of last sum mer with any assurance that they will serve the same purpose in the season of the present. "Elsewise" the rain of last Wednesday coupled with the heavy electrical storm would have cleared and cooled the atmosphere for at least week; as it was. we were delyed into a spell of weather, which gave the effect of Turkish bath We aren't going to be pessi- mistic, however, since Douglas has never failed us yet when it comes to essentials, and the novelty of oceans of water running in torrents down the streets has its features of entertainment, even though that same torrent is entirely gone day later and dust blowing on G avenue. We have the spice of life out here in our beloved Arizona.
 Last Monday marked another Of the successful social evenings at the Y. M c. A. The crowd was much larger and more enthusiastic than ever before; exceeding the most san guine expectations of the committee in charge, at least two hundred peo- pie listened to the following excel lent musical program:
 l. Duet. Vocal, Messrs. Foster and . Gorgeson-
 2.Vocal Solo, Fred Nichols.
 8. Recitation, Mrs. Durham.
 4. Vocal Solo, Adele Paxton.
 ,. Vocal Solo, MT. Gorgeson.
 $. Vocal Solo, E. P. Fleming.
 We might well say Hast but not least' MT. E. P. Fleming, since the solo sung by Mir. Fleming was wholly impromptu and came as a response to the oration rendered by MT. W. B. Cramer, spokesman of the evening. Mir. FlemiEg's solo was the beautiful poem of T'ennyson, Crossing the Bar" set to music by Eugene Cowles, and was beautifully rendered, pleas. ing everyone as Mir. Fleming'S voice alone can please.
 Another novelty of the evening was the gymnasium drill under the di' rection of MT. Wise. At lease twenty of the ", M. c. A. boys assisted. and = from the balcony their movements were symmetrical and well trained .r The bowling contest held, on the SOCidl llCOI was DelWStn SIX Ol IuS young men: Messrs. Worthington Ely and Potter, bowling against Messrs. .Cramer, Parsons and Pax ton. The latter team came out vic tors with a score of 407 against 345 Then for those who enjoy something truly scientific, Messrs. Kirkland and Foster gave a splendid display oi skill in a game of billiards.
 Refreshments were served conclud ing a highly enjoyable evening.
 The suggestion that Douglas would be much beautified by literary clut among the young people was per haps little out of season, since dur ing the spring and summer months one is more apt to plan his vacation at least make arrangements for g rest. But now, that most everyone has returned from his delightful trip tc

 Fire at the Merchants bar on G avenue between Eighth and Ninth streets this morning. which was caus- ed by the explosion of tank of gasc- line, for time menaced the business district, but by prompt and effective use of chemicals the fire department managed to limit the fire to a very small area in the building where it originated, and it is not believed the loss will exceed $500.
 The greatest damage was inflicted in the pool and billiard room and in the gambling room. One fine pool table was ruined and roulette wheel was put out of commission. The inter- for of both these rooms was badly scared by the flames which followed the explosion, but the damage is not severe.
 The gasoline tank which exploded is about in the center of the building. It was being filled by the negro DOT. ter when the fumes of the gasoline ignited from light nearby, the ex- plCsion following. Presently smoke began to roll out Of the building and it seemed as if the entire interior was on fire.

 For a time about S40O was exposed under the roulette wheel. When the explosion first came the man running the wheel had to make hurried get away and in doing so dumped all the money on the wheel under the table. In tn emeantime the firemen stopped the progress of the blaze and the money was then secured without any being lost.
 It was estimated this morning that the loss would be about $500 and it was stated that it was fully covered with insurance.

A Club woman recently examined
 the stamps in her pretty case, and straightway was struck with the fact that there wasn't one of them which bore the likeness of a woman's head on them. She immediately sent a pc tition to the Club which promised to | look into the matter. Consequently l the Club got up a petition to ask con gress to remedy this deficiency and give the woman a representation in 1 this matter. This particular woman, however. was mistaken, and not with out good reason, since it( seldom be- comes necessary to use an eight cent stamp. Upon this stamp you will find the head of Martha Washington. Whether this petition will have any | erect or whether it will be aband-
 oned, has not yet been learned.

OCEAN YACHT RACE
At THE OTHER END
THE SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE
HAS AN ARTICLE ON THE COM
ING OCEAN RACE.

! The following article is from the San
Francisco Chronicle of March % 1t
shows that the people at that end Of
the line are as much interested as at
this end:
The Honolulu yachtsmen are all ready
for the big ocean race. They have sub
scribed all the money necessary for
the event, and part of it has been sent
to this city for the prizes The win
ming yacht will receive the $500 cup.
The second yacht will also receive a
cup, but of less value Every yacht
that covers the course will receive Il
trophy
La Paloma will leave Honolulu on
April eth for San Francisco. The last
time La Paloma was seen i'm San Fran
cisco bay she was a schooner. When
she returns she will be a ketch-rigged
boat. Ex-Commodore Tom Hebron
will not come up on La Paloma, as he
had planned, but will come up on the
steamer. He will, however, be one of
the crew that will be aboard the yacht
when she races home. Commodore II,
r. Cooper, aboard the Gladys, which
he is using as his flagship, will accom-
pany La Paloma 100 miles to sea.
When the yachtsmen arrive at Ho-
nolulu the yacht club at that place
will hold a series of races in which all
the Honolulu yachts as well as the Wis
itors will take part. The first race will
be from Honolulu around the island of
Oahu and back to the starting line.
This will be over a course of 120 miles
The second race will be to the old
whaling station that was used over fif-
ty years ago at Lahaina, on the island
of Maui, and return, a distance of sew
enty-five miles. The last race will be
to Hilo, distance of $50 miles.
Some time will be spent at Hilo, and
the local yachts will leave that place
for San Francisco, as it is the nearest
pont for home. There is some talk of
the race being postponed if the auxH-
liary yacht Anemone does not reach

MRS, WHARTON
BEGINS HER STORY
MOTHER OF >JOHNsON's ALLEGED
VICTIM ON THE STAND YESTER-
DAY AFTERNOON.

Mrs. Wharton, mother of the victim
of the alleged Johnson murder, was on
the witness stand in Judge Robinson's
court nearly all yesterday afternoon
as the prosecutions first witness to
deal with the events of the tragedy.
Her story was not finished when court
adjourned for the day. She identified
Johnson as the man she saw with her
boy the last time she saw the latter,
and told of the disappearance of the
lad. The mothers story was in sub
stance as follows:
Il was married to Henry Wharton
seven years ago. 1 am his second wife.
l have had three children. Simeon
was the eldest. Lemon is my second
son. The third is girl named Mari
anne. Simeon died on the third day of
January at our place in Waialua.
I saw Simeon at our place on jan
uary 3. Saw him last at o'clock in
the morning. I was washing clothes
at that bend in the ditch pointing on
map, myself and deaS girl, a Japa-
nese. Simeon at that time was play
ing at the slope there Cndicating). I
could not see him. Know he was play
ing there because after breakfast at s
o'clock l told all the children to play
down there by the slope. That is all
the reason I know for saying he was
playing there. I first swept out the
house. then washed quite a long time,
but still it was in the morning.
while l was washing Simeon left
the other children and got under the
fence. He went into the house to a
window and began calling for his
| father. His father was not there. /
answered him. l told him papa was
not home, that he had gone that
morning to Honolulu. l told him to go
back with the rest of the children and
play. That was the last sight of him
then. l did not continue washing long
after that
4 "A little while after that l went to
see whether he had really gone with
the other children and went to mid
way between the Chinamans quarters
