| see that we had another distin-
guished prince i'm our midst yesterday.
Prince Eli, and he was real live coon
prince too. According to information
supplied by his press agent, the prince
left home with forty barrels, supposed
to contain ivory tusSs. During the
course of his progress, the prince had
given away 26 barrels of those tusks.
The word barrel makes me suspicious
If those ivory tusks had been i'm any
other container but a barrel I would
believe the story but from my intimate
observation of potentates, royal and
commercial, l am inclined to doubt it,
Not that the prince did not leave home
with forty barrels; l will admit that he
had more but l don't think that those
barrels contained ivory tusks. That
is where my doubts arise. But prob
ably Ivory Tusks" is the name of
new brand of Abyssinian sour mash
that the prince was sent to America
and abroad to introduce. From the
statement that he had gotten through
with 20 barrels out of 40 through the
United States, I am inclined to think
that his trip will be a success.
There's only one Honolulu, mot a
doubt of it, as my friend Sol. Sheridan
would say.
The police had luau on New Years
Day at the invitation of Sheriff A. NJ.
Brown and the men enjoyed themselves
hugely. The work of cooking the food,
Hawaiian style was done by prisoners
under the tutelage of officer Aptna.
The luau and speeches over, the Ld.f
dozen prisoners cleared up the debris
and incidentally filled up ii leaves with
the portions of food left over. Then the
blue bloused men went down stairs
The patrol wagon was brought up
and they were preparing to take the
men back to Jail,
Into the wagon piled the prisoners
but to my establishment no guard
went with them.
See that none of you men get out of
the wagon until you reach the jai

Of sternness in his voice.
