EL-KS HAVE
GOOD TIME
Special Session of Homo.
lulu Lodge last
Night.

Honolulu Lodge No. GIG, B. P 0. E.,
held a social session at their hall last
evening, which was one of the mark
ed successes of that organization. With
Past Exalted Ruler Frank Thompson
welding the gavel and overseeing the
charity plate there was nothing lack
ing in the way of amusement. Witty
as ever, Bro. Thompson scintillated
with original ideas to extract fun from
his brother EIks and coin from the in
nermost recesses of their purses.
The attendance was very large, not
only of the brotherhood, but of many
outside invited guests. Tables were
placed in the lodge hail and about
these the guests gathered and the
stems We're kept trimming by ener-
getic refreshment committees and the
room became blue with tobacco smoke.
AS the smoke clouds became thicker
the fun was more marked.
There was no set program, every
thing being on the impromptu order.
A quintet composed of Hawaiians of
the Signal Corps, under Bro. James
Dougherty. played many native selec-

County Attorney Douthitt, J. Walter
Doyle, Guy Livingston and A M.
Burns. Captain Connor of the dredgel
Pacific gave a harmonica solo which
was a novelty Bruce Hartman and
Coleman Schwartz were excellent in
monologues.
Col. Thompson, owner of the st.
Paul (AIinn.) Dispatch, was an honored
guest, occupying a seat on the plat
form with the presiding officer. Col.
Thompson was called on to speak, but
after a few Introductory remarks con-
corning Elkdom, he recited a selection
from Bulwer Lytton's THE Rightful
Heir" and received an ovation.
All II o'clock, when the Elks drank
to their absent brothers. Bro. Kline,
editor of an Amsterdam, n. Y, paper
was asked to respond. He did so il
an eloquent manner, referring to the
visit of Judge Fisher, who installed
Honolulu Lodge, 3. P. O. E., in 1901
He had the pleasure of being at So
cial in Amsterdam when Judge Fisher
spoke, and since coming to the islands
there had been a social session at home
which was attended by the judge, who
spoke there of his visit to Honolulu and
of the pleasure he felt in organizing
the local lodge. Bro Kline is a fine
speaker and made a hit
The social committee in charge of the
entertainment comprised H. E. Muir
ray, H C. Easton. H. H. James, E. w.
Quinn and Geo. T. Kleugel. Attorney
Robertson made a hit in his stunt en-
titled How the Wurzburger Flows
Through the Megaphone,' with lager
accompaniment.

TOURISTS keep UP
THE AQUARIUM

In all his travels around the world
Jacob Schiff, the multi-millionaire, has
never seen a better collection of col
ored fish than he saw in Honolulu
at the Aquarium. So he informed the
manager, and the same expression of
opinion is common among the tourists,
! few of whom fail to visit this attrac-
| ton While here. In fact the tourist
/ patronage is what keeps up the Aqua
rum, local visitors seldom being
among the sightseers on other than
| the free days
! Of late very few specimens have
been added to the collection, the
stormy weather of the past month
| having made the business of the fish
ermen desultory one, and it is from
the Japanese fishermen that the man
agement look for the recruits for their
, tanks. Ordinarily new specimens and
new species are brought in very fire.
quent1y, SO that the visitors always
may expect to see something new in
the fish line, there being 460 known
species of fish in Hawaiian waters, and
| the biggest number ever seen at one
| time at the Aquarium was 125. The
hardest of these fish can be kept some
time, but there are species which it
| has been found impossible to keep
more than a day or two. Probably
the hardest fish to put on exhibition
are the flying fish, which will not
even live in the boat tanks long enough
to be landed and which cannot be
handled at all. so delicate are they.
Equally fragile are several other spe-
cies, not only among the small fish
either.
The hardest inmate of the Aquarium
is the big silver ava, which has lived
contentedly in his tank ever since the
place was opened and which has
grown and thriven in captivity. II is
said that he will answer to his name
and do other stunts, but this is prob
ably a fish story. The prettiest fish
and the rarest of all are the striped
trigger fish, which fortunately are
hardy, and their near neighbors the
peacock blue fellows with the long
noses. There are plenty of each of
these kinds in the sea. their rarity con-
sisting in the fact that few of them
are landed in the spots sought by the
fishermen, who say that it would not
pay them to leave their regular fish
ing places to catch fancy specimens.

The Play.

The Olympia Opera Company open
ed at the Temple last night for three
nights run. The opening bill was
"Said Pashs," and the company sp-
peared to good advantage to a large
and well pleased audience. The opera
is . we'll known one, and contains good
music. The parts were all we'll taken,
and some of the vocal numbers were
received with encores. The company
is deserving of the good patronage
given it. The leading commedian, Mr..
Leo. AIDE, as Hockey, was the hit of
the show, and is as good as the best.
His work is spontaneous, and he pos
sesses voice that could be cassidy us
ed in more serious work. Altogether
the show is good.
Tonight the company presents the
Mascot. Tomorrow matinee the bill
will be "Chimes of Normandy" Sat-
urdsy night "The Telephone Grip
will be offered.

State Geologist Kummel of New

"Whst is needed" he said, sis in

What a Cotton Mill Does.

j. o. Saunders, secretary of the
Bonham cotton mills, in the Bonhsm
News says:
"The section Immediately tributary
to Bonhsm can produce $4,000 bales of
cotton annually in addition TO attention
to other farm products that may be
necessary to maintain it's population.
This cotton on the recent high level
would be worth about s2,5OO,O 900 By
the proper exercise of our wits and the
use of our surplus wealth, the worth
of this cotton can easily be doubled.
1t is a conceded fact that this COM
munity has added to its wealth not less
than $4,000 annually by the operation
OF the Bonham cotton mill. II this
small mill consuming only 2,4OO bales
of cotton annually can do this, and
support about 500 people, think of
what the result would be with more
than one half of our cotton going out
of Bonhsm in finished cloth-snd the
strange thing is, there is not now a
single barrier to prevent all of this
from becoming a reality, except our
own indifference to our opportunities.
There is no we'll informed man now
who says that cotton mills can not be
successfully operated in Texas"

Over Phone.

Secretary Frank Morris of the Board
of Trade had talk with Mr.. Watkins,
the interurban promoter, last night,

of surveying the line is still under way,
and other matters are being closed up.
Mr.. Morris says he believes everything
will come out all right, and that Pales-

Likes Our Talk.

A business man said to a herald
man today that he liked our talk about
a cleaner town, and hoped the council
would pass an ordinance to prevent
people from throwing trash on the
streets. He said the merchants we're
required to put their sweepings into a
box or barrel so that the trash man
could haul it of, and he thought it just
as proper to'keep other people from
scattering their trash on the streets
and in front of merchants doors. We
think so, too, and would like to see q
cleaner Palestine a reality.
