A NIGHT WITH
TIE ISLANDERS

When the curtain rises Saturday
evening May 10. at the Hawaiian Opera
House. those that are fortunate enough
to secure seats will witness one of the
pleasantest affairs of the season. Moth
ing but the best will be entered in the
program, as there are so many who
have volunteered their services that
it is possible to select from them the
best talent the islands afford.
The Kamehameha Glee Club, under
the leadership of the talented Mr..
Stanley Livingston. is much feared by
the other clubs as they are already
known to do creditable work in that
line.
The Maui Glee Club realizes the
necessity of sending a telegram to Mr..
D. Kapohakimohewa, principal of Keo-
kea school. noted singer of Maui. to
assist and help them to defend the
laurels of their native land.
Be sure and secure your seats before
it is too late.

To ELECT
DELEGATE
Congress Seeks to
Amend. the Organic
Act,

The Organic Act of the Territory
makes provision for the election of a
Delegate to Congress, but does not
provide for the form and manner of
his election, nor for the filing of a
vacancy if one should occur. Conse-
quently, every Delegate chosen SO far
has been selected as the result of a
"butt-in'' on the part of the Secretary
of the Territory who has gone anead
and done things because things had
to be done, and done them in the best
way possible
Nobody knows what might have hap
pened if these acts of the Secretary in
this regard had ever been questioned.
What would happen If there should be
a vacancy in the office of Delegate is
pretty clear. The vacancy would stay
until the next regular election, and the
Territory would be without Delegate
in Congress.
1t is to remedy this condition that a
bill has been introduced in Congress
by Delegate Kalanianaole, reported
ritories and ordered printed. This bill,
after providing specifically for the cleo
ton of Delegate to Congress by the
voters qualified to vote for members of
the legislature. provides:
.sSuch elections shall be held on the
first Tuesday after the first Monday of
every even year and at such places as
shall be designated by the secretary of
the Territory The ballot for Delegate
shall be such as the legislature of the
Territory may designate. and until pro-
vision is made by the Territorial legis-
lature, the ballot shall be of pink paper
and shall be of the same general form
as those used for the election of rep
resentatives to the legislature.
''The method of certifying the names
of candidates for place on this ballot
and all conduct of the election of
Delegate shall be in conformity to the
general election laws of the Territory
of Hawaii
1.-The person having the greatest
number of votes shall be declared by
the Governor duly elected, and a GER
tificate shall he given ACCORDINGLY.
Every such Delegate shall have a
seat in the House of Representatives
with the right of debate but not of
voting In case of a vacancy occurring
in the office of Delegate, the Governor
of the Territory is directed to call
special election to fill such vacancy.
Provided. however. That no vacancy
shall be filed which occurs within five
months of the expiration of a Congress
sinai term.
''The legislature of the Territory of
Hawaii shall have the right to alter or
amend any part of the election laws |
of said Territory. including those pro-
viding for an election of Delegate to |
Congress. and its action shall be the |
law. with full. binding force until al |

TEMPTATION PUT ASIDE.
Not in a thosand years" the Act
| ing Governor is reported to have said
to these. Get thee behind me-!
Now, the Acting Governor is coy
about these yarns, nevertheless do the
wise ones say that this Maui scheme
was cooked-and spoiled in the get
ting out of the oven Many another
political cake has been made dough in
the same way For it is wise to catch
your man, in politics. before You roast
him.
In the meantime, the Lane chaps are
continuing to urge the candidacy OF
Kuhio, in season and out of it, but even
the little Lane chaps are preparing for
a place for themselves to alight in the
event that Kuhio should be turned
down. 1t was whispered yesterday that
one of the alternative candidates these
had in view was Chief Clerk Buck
land, of the Secretary's office, and it is
"a fact that they might go farther afield
and get a worse man for Delegate.
However, this is probably a mere
rumor. The whole essence of the Lane
movement is the candidacy of a Ha-
waiian Kuhio for choice.
| If it be not Kuhio. either as Repub-
lican. Home Ruler, a Democrat, or
| an Independent then some other Ha-
Waiian-say. Taukea. or Palmer Wood.
or Motley, or any old body, so long as
| it be not a haoie. 1t is, in fact. a race
| matter with the. Lane chaps, and moth
! ing else, and they are all in it, although
| all the Lane Sunday school class are
not Hawaiians. They are all in the
class for Hawaiian support, and there
| is reason to believe that the Hon. and
| Rev. stephen Desha has added the
aegis of his sanity halo to the bunch
since he has been in town attending the
meeting of the Evangelical Association
NATIVE-OR WHITE.
| As TO the possibility of electing any
body but a Hawaiian to Congress, that
is a point that is being discussed with

natives stick to the party"
As Senator McCandless is a white
man who wants to be voted for. for Con-
gress it behooves him TO know what
the natives would do. It is strange,
however. that in his estimate OF the

Executive depended largely upon them
for support in his great task, that they
had the power to back up the laws
and secure their enforcement. He
added that he looked to them to send
representatives to the Legislature to
change the present liquor laws, and
assured the members of the Womans
Board that he was glad to speak this
decisive word for the women of Ha-

FISH IN NEW PLACES.
Wild Ducks Found to Bear Fish Eggs
 Ready to Hatch.

A correspondent from Safff wrote in our June issue expressing his mysti- fcation as to how small fish come to be in inclosed waters. A naturalist Isuggests an explanation. He says:
 If the wild ducks, etc, of Morocco are similar to those elsewhere there is no mystery. For some years there was open-mouthed wonder as to how perch, Dream and crayish could get into newly cut dams near the Mac quarie river in New South Wales.
 Tn some cases the water had hardly settled after the rain had filled the dam than the fish were observed, and the farmers started large theory of spontaneous production.
 This obtained till Sydney profes sor chanced to pick up wild duck and found it's breast feathers and webbed feet we'll dotted with fertile and almost matched fish-ova, on which the spontaneous production theory was promptly withdrawn" - Cham bers' Journal.

IT'S THE FOOD.
The True Way to Correct Nervous
 Troubles.

Nervous troubles are more often caused by improper food and indiges- tion than most people imagine. Even doctors sometimes overlook this fact. A man says:
 Until two years ago waffleS and butter with meat and gravy were the main features of my breakfast. Final ly dyspepsia came on and found my self in bad condition, worse in the morning than any other time. l would have a full sick feeling in my stom- ach, with pains in my heart, sides and head.
 ''At times I would have no appetite for days, then I would feel ravenous, never satisfied when 1 did eat and so nervous I felt like shrieking at the top of my voice. I lost flesh badly and hardly knew which way to turn until one day I bought a box of Grape Nuts food to see if I could eat that. I tried it without telling the doctor, and liked it fine; made me feel as if I had something to eat that was satis- flying and still I didn't have that heaviness that I had felt after eating any other food.
 'I hadn't drank any coffee then in five weeks. I kept on with the Grape Nuts and in a month and half had gained 15 pounds, could eat almost anything I wanted, didn't feel badly after eating and my nervousness was all gone. It's pleasure to be well again."

Defined by Customs Men as Bird, a
 Handbag and Dog.

On the travels of monkey from Genoa to Heidelberg an amusing farce might be written. A German gentle men brought from southwest Africa tiny monkey weighing barely a couple of pounds. From Tanga to Genoa all went we'll with the Lilli- putian animal. It was a favorite with everyone, and travelled free until Genoa was reached, when it's troubles began
 Brought under the notice of the Ge. noese customhouse authorities, it was promptly deprived of it's identity. It was no longer an animal; it became a bird, and as bird, on which 28 cents was charged, it was conveyed to the Swiss frontier, where, at a stroke of the customhouse officers wand it was transformed into a cat at the in creased assessment of $1.56, and borne by train to Zurich.
 On it's arrival there it ceased, as a cat, to exist, and became mere pack age-an item of luggage that was con veyed to Constance for the nominal sum of 16 cents.
 Still as luggage, though metamor- phized from package into handbag, it went on its way to Stuttgart, where a great honor awaited it. It was, on payment of s2.04, exalted into dog, and it was as a dog that it ended it's journey at the university town of Heidelberg Stray Stories.
