Sacred to the Memory of Our Beloved
Mother.

We heard not his wings when the
Angel of Death.
Darted upon our sweet mother; till
his raven black plume
Dropped on her damp brow, but her
low fieeting breath
Betrayed the presence of death in
the room.
On her heart fell no gloom of a dear
coming night,
A fear of the grave from her bosom
had flown,
And her peaceful wings were spread
for the fight
Through star glittering space to the
white crystal throne.
As the moments drew nigh for our
loved one TO depart,
From all of cath idols her pathway
had blessed.
Her last lingering gaze in those idols
of her heart
spake of the food of grief in her
breast.
Still suddenly grew her heart; her
damp brow paled;
Dim were her eyes TO scenes of her
eternal home.
Then deaths subtle pail quickly rose
unveiled:
Gods City of Gold agleam in the
Dome.
When we glanced in faith her sud
den flight to behold,
From our dim mortal eyes fell the
earth memory pail.
And we saw her draw nigh to the
mansion of gold,
Then vanish through the gate OF the
pearl Of the wall.
Envoi.
When she bowed at the altar before
the white throne,
A dear voice We know fell sweet on
her ear,
On the cross through deaths shadow
it passed through realms un-
known.
To greet you our love to rejoice over
your eternal home.
Written for the Children of a. d.
NARROW.

NOT CAPRICE
Power of Liquor Board
to Grant or Refuse,
Defined.

The Board of License Commissioners
held another meeting yesterday after
noon. AT this meeting opinions by At
torney General Peters on several points
of the new liquor law, which had been
requested, were presented. Among
these was the opinion holding that Act
25 of the Sessin Laws of 1905 which
provides for the dispensing of liquor
to members of social clubs, is still in
force
In another the Attorney General held
that the board had power to grant
hotel and restaurant licenses and at the
same time to refuse an application to
exercise the license at all times after
the usual closing hours and on Sundays
and during election hours. Such a re-
quest, it is held, is gauged by the same
rules as any ordinary application for
a license and may be refused by the
board should it in the exercise of it's
sound discretion deem such action ad-
visable.
An opinion on a very important ques-
ton raised by Commissioner Lucas,
holds that the discretion reposed in the
board to grant or refuse licenses is a |
sound legal discretion, to be exercised |
wisely and not arbitrarily or accord |

The Mahuka site looms large again
The various interests in the owner
ship have been busy, and have made
financial arrangements for the opening
of Bishop street from King TO Mer-
chant, thus fully complying with the
conditions of the acceptance of the
property by Special Agent Taylor. The
Territorial Government has formally
admitted that the agreement with Gov
ernor Carter has been fully compiled
with by the Henry Waterhouse Trust
Company withdrawing the property.
The way is clear for any other action
the Mahuka site people may see fit to
make, freed from any conditions i'm
posed by Governor Carter.
Bishop street is to be opened from
King to Merchant The Territorial
Government will accept the street as a
public thoroughfare. The conditions
imposed at the time of the acceptance
of the site by the Federal Government
will then be complied with. The prop
erty may yet be the site of the Fed
eral building
Such in breath are the latest de-
velopments in regard to the site.
The so-called Mahuka site is owned
by five interests, the Bishop Museum,
the Austin Estate, the Cummings Es-
tate, John Emmeluth and William Ma
huka- It was offered as one tract as
a site for the Federal building by the
