BURGLAR
IN MAK|K|
(From Sundays Advertiser)

The daylight burglar Is as active as
ever and the police show us much in
difference as in the past in their meth
DDS of getting at clues first hand. In
the past few weeks no less than Ave
burglaries are reported from the Ma
kiki district alone. the Fullerton rob-
berry of last week being prominent. Yes
terday between 11:45 and 1880. noon,
the Makiki street home of Jos. M. Lit
tie. chief engineer for the Miller
Salvage Company, was burglarized and
quantity of jewelry owned by Mrs
Little, ST. in cash. a revolver and a
ring belonging to MIR. Little were
taken.
The Titles left their home at 11:45
a. m. Before 1890, Mr.. Little's brother
called at the house and found evil
dences which were afterward shown to
have been left by the burglar to indi-
cate that the house had already been
entered. The Titles returned at s
o'clock and found every room ransack
ed. Bureau drawers had been emptied,
clothes strewn about the rooms and
everything left in general disorder.
sought by the burglar.
A ladder which had been used to
prop up a banana stalk was utilized
by the burglar to gain entrance
through a kitchen window. The house
was locked up and only the rear WIN
dow afforded opportunity to enter.
Marks of barefooted man were
found on the veranda. The foot is that
of a man who may be large. At least.
the foot was a large one, the imprint
10 1-2 inches in length and
four inches across the ball of the foot. |
The toes were well spread out, indicat- !
ing. to some extent, that 1t may be the
foot Of a native.
Mr.. Little asked the police depart |
nent to investigate the matter. In
stead of sending up detective, a bicy-
Gle officer went out and looked over the !
premises

conferences with Land Commissioners
Pratt and Agent Williams was that
those who are willing to do so were

THE YOUNG CAFE
IS A SUCCESS

The Young Cafe has had two days OF
very good opening business and, as
soon as its machinery gets in running
order, 1t Is likely to acquire a perma-
nent clientele of the best class of pa
irons. The cafe is the most beautiful
one Honolulu ever had; 1t is perhaps
the most attractive thing of the kind
in the Pacifc-spacious, oaken, bril-
liantly lighted. provided with every
appliance which first-class restaurants
need. and having the best things to
eat at fair prices. The only difficulty
the management had on the opening
days was one of servants; but this Will
soon be adjusted. The servants at the
outset seemed bewidered by the crowd,
but they are fast pulling themselves
together.
The appreciation shown by ladies', of
the new cafe. is most encouraging
sign. Hitherto our ground floor restau-
rants were, in the main. given over to
men, and a majority of ladies were
content to stay their hunger by egg
phosphates and matted milks at the
soda fountains. They may do that, IL
they wish, at the cafes fountain, but
inviting tables and menus allure them
to more substantial fare,
On the whole the restaurant promises
to be boon to Honolulu. Last nights
reports We're highly complimentary TO
the service as well as to the bill of fare
and the general surroundings.

curity, the local sureties on the bond
of the ship W. f. Babcock, being E. D.

THE RULE
Of MORALS
(From Mondays Advertiser


As was announced Rev. Father stari
occupied his time at the Roman
Catholic Cathedral last night by com.
pleting the answers TO the questions
that have been placed In the box a,
, the door.
Perhaps the most interesting feature
Cd the Paulist Mission In this city, has
been the replies to the questions which
have been asked by members OF the
congregation.
last night the questions were those
practical and everyday doubts which
occur to the minds OF those who are
interested In and desire to follow the
Catholic rule OF faith and morals.
Moral questions are, II anything, those
which most interest men in this prac-
teal age and the answers of Father
Stark particularly on this class of sub
1ects show that the church of Rome
has not only a thoroughly elaborated
system of dogma but one in morals
also which brings within its scope a
clear and definite rule of conduct as
well.
Among these was n question asked
presumably by conscientious person,
regarding the conduct OF married peo-
pie. The preacher made It most clear,
without mncing words. that the mar
riage relation was divinely instituted
and. for one OF it's cardinal purposes
TO which the question referred such
acts as those submitted for his opinion
were i'm violation CT the laws OF God
and always fnexcusable and criminal
Other questions of equal Importance
In morals were also ably discussed and
the impression was Enthusiastically con-
veyed that the Roman Catholic church
never compromises any principle in
volved in the ten commandments and
In her irreformable precepts.
Father Stark showed that ecclesias-
teal legislation is, however, variable |
when dealing with questions of dis
cipline.
Rev. Father Wyman sails for Hilo
by the steamer Kinau on Wednesday
and Rev Father Stark leaves for Wa
iluku on Friday.
After finishing their labors in these
places. they will depart for San Fran
cisco by the steamer Alameda on Jam

HAD DREAMS
ABOUT GAULT

lf dreams so by contrarles, then
Charley Gault. former driver OF the
police patrol wagon, Ia really dead, but
two members OF the police force. who
have dreamed that Charley is living,
are inclined to believe that the report
OF his death is untrue.
Charley Gault was one OF the most
daring OF the police patrol wagon driv-
ers. He had habit OF speeding up
the horses on important runs ana
rounding corners in way to raise the
hair of the occupants OF the wagon,
yet he never had an accident. He
steered by street cars and vehicles,
close shaves nearly all OF them, but
never collision.
Some time ago Gault resigned and
went TO the Coast. He was in Chicago
1T one time and expected to go to
work there Next he was heard of In
and finally n report reach
ed Honolulu that he had committed
suicide in san Francisco. Coast papers
told also of the suicide OF Charles
Gault." but 1t has never been known
definitely that he was Charles Gault of
Patrol Wagon Driver Scully and Re-
,e'ving Clerk McKinnon have both had
dreams about Gault during the past
week in which Gault appeared before
hem as living. To one of them-in the
iream-Gault said he was not dead,
but living,
Both officers are strongly of the
opinion that Gault is not dead.

. A SILLY SAYING,

ut is a common but silly opin.
ion prevailing among GER
tain class of people that the
worse a remedy tastes, smells or
hurts, the more efficacious it is"
So says well-known English
physician. He further adds
"For example, let us consider
cod liver oil. AS it is extracted
from the fish this oil is so often
sive to the taste and smell that
many cannot use it at all, nc
matter how badly they need it.
Yet cod liver oil is one of the
most valuable drugs in the world
and it is the greatest pity that
we have not thus far bsen able
to free it from those peculiari-
ties which 30 seriously interfere
with its usefulness" This was
written years ago; the work of
civilizing and redeeming it has
since been triumphantly accom-
plished; and as a leading in
gredient in the remedy called

the oil retains all its wonderful
curative properties with no bad
smell or taste whatever. 1t is

upon treating the Japanese as an in.
ferior race.
Europes interest in the matter lies
in the belief that should trouble come
between this country and Japan the
Japanese could not expect assistance
from Great Britain in spite of all exist
ing treaties, and thus unaided would
turn to Russia and seek an alliance
to grant 1t is the effect in the Far
East of such an alignment which
Europe fears. So long as Japan and
the United States continue their friend
ly relations, Europe hoped that the
three powers, England, Japan and the
United States, could be depended upon
working in harmony to keep open the
door in the Far East. 1t Is believed
II not by Japan, certainly by Germany.
France and Italy, that in the event of
war between this country and Japan.
England would, find some way OF ex-
cusing herself from any obligations to
side with Japan. For this reason 1t is
believed in Washington, and the de-
spatches OF Ambassador Reid at Lon
don bear out the belief that the Lon
don government can be depended upon
to urge upon Toxic a reasonable and
patient attitude in It's discussion with
washington of the anti-Japanese dis
elimination on the Pacific Coast. Mean
time the President will take every OPP
portunity of showing to the world that
the great mass OF the American people
desire that the Japanese shall be treat
ed as are the people of the most favor
ed nation who come to this country.
1t is evident. however. that In their
campaign against the Japanese the Pa
cific Coast politicians will have the
support of the politicians of the South,
who regard the problem as a race
question and recall that the senators
and congressman from the Far West
have always opposed the suggestion in
Congress whenever that spectre has
been raised. Then, too, the question
OF States rights enters In and South
erners contend that should Japan be
supported in her refusal to permit her
citizens to attend separate schools in
this country the Federal government
would be guaranteeing to a foreign ma
ton better treatment than is extended
to many citizens in our own country

this apparent determination on the part
Of the Californians to class the Japa-

HOW THE JAPANESE ROW
LOOKS TO THE EUROPENS

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1O.-Europe
views with increasing anxiety the
growing war talk in which the press
of this country and Japan are indulg-
ing. Not since the Venezuelan trouble
of 1923 has a question of foreign pol
| icy been the subject of so much in
| formal but lively discussion among
senators and representatives as the
Japanese problem received today in the
corridors and cloak rooms at the Capt.
| tol. AS those most vitality interested.
| the senators and representatives from
California were surrounded by their
confreres from every section of the
country who desired to learn at first
hand how the Californians feel on the
subject. 1t is noticed that the Califor-
mans refused to regard seriously the
idea that the Japanese government in
tends to make trouble for us over its
subjects on the Pacific coast. One
member of the Californian delegation
today was heard to say that he had
confidential information that the Pres
ident and Secretary Root were merely
"bluffing" for the sake of quieting the
feelings of the Toxic government.
This more or less Indifferent view of
the situation Is not shared by the ad-
ministration or by European diplomats.
They see in the attitude of the Pacific
States toward Japan source of very
serious embarrassment to our Federal
government and to Great Britain. ia
pan has outlined her position in clear
terms. In recent conversation with
an official of this government Viscount
Aoki, the Japanese ambassador, said:
I'm Japan we do not require Americans
to attend separate schools; we do not
object to our children associating with
them, and i feel sure that IL we commit
these privileges to Americans in Japan
We may expect with confidence that
our subjects in this country will be
treated with equal courtesy and ex-
tended the same privileges"
The significance of the ambassadors
words is unmistakable. Japan regards
herself as a first-class nation and she
will demand that she be so treated.
This government Is pledged to extend
to her citizens in the United States
each and every privilege granted to
the citizens OF the most favored Europ
can nation. This pledge was stated In
clear terms by Secretary Root in his
recent cablegram 10 Ambassador
Wright. Congress will be called upon
20 pass a law permitting the naturali-
zation OF Japanese. but the Federal
government will be powerless to allay
he feeling against Americans In Japan

PRESENTS TO
BANDSMEN
trrom Saturdays Advertiser.)

tfrom SATURDAYS AdvertiserD
The Christmas-tree celebration glver
last evening in Progress Hall by tn,
OF the Royal Hawaiian Band and their
families was an occasion OF joy. The
celebration was the result OF the bene.
fit dance given at the Alexander Young
Hotel some time ago for the relief OF
the band, which was then in Nevada
and supposed to be stranded The
dance proceeds amounted to 1921. When
the band came home without local as
sistance, Manager S. X. Nainoa re-
served the fund, intending to devote
1t some time TO the band. He struck
upon the happy idea of giving a Christ
rras-tree celebration.
1t was supposed that the celebration
was merely for the children of the
bandsmen, but after the children had
been given various little presents, in
Guiding "snowballs'' containing candy,
Mr.. Nainoa brought into the center of
the hall, and directly beneath the
Christmas tree, an armful of small
envelopes, one for each member of the
band, and in each envelope there was
S3.65 in cash.
The tree was a large one, brought
here during the past week from the
Oregon forests. 1t was set up in the
center Of the hall and gistened with
strings of tinsel and candles. Huge
''snowballs'' of cotton containing candy
weighed down the branches. The hall
was partially darkened and this show
ed off the tree to advantage. The Ka-
.1,,1x a..
stage and after playing Aloha De"
rendered the Hawaiian Waltz"
While this was being played the door
burst open and with great noise
Santa Claus, impersonated by Ollie
Swain, rushed into the hall. He ex-
pressed regret that his sleigh had
broken down. The presents, however,
were at the door, and these were
brought in by some Of the singers. He
then quickly distributed these gifts,
with the assistance of Mr.. Nainoa, and
the hall was transformed into a toy
musical instrument shop, every child
blowing as If belonging to the Royal
Hawaiian Band, Jr.
But the surprise of the evening was
in the giving of envelopes to the bands
men. When this feature was conclud-
ed, Mr. Naonoe, assistant leader of the
band, made an address, thanking Mr..
Nainoa and the club for it's generous
celebration. 1t was something which
was not only surprise to them all,
but a source Of much qualification.
Mr. Nainoa responded and expressedi
pleasure that the celebration had been
so successful He explained how the
fund was raised and how, finally, it |
had been decided to devote it to the |
celebration in progress. He was given
hearty applause. VIM. Aylett also |
thanked the Hawaiian club. 1t was
gratifying because musicians |
had been the promoters of the benefit |
to fellow-musicians.

ing of light refreshments and dancing
