KAAI'S RECITAL

There is nothing more pleasing to a
parent than to listen to good, sweet
music, rendered artisticany by their
child. And any parent who has taxi
en- the advantage of educating their
children in this direction can fully APP
preciate, after years study, how
much a little one can accomplish with
proper training in that time. Mr.. Ern-
est Kaai the gifted artist and teacher,
has given his recitals from year to
year, hence introducing to the music
loving public not only the more ad-
vanced students of previous recitals
but also the newer ones. There are
many who look forward 10 these ex-
hibitions of the stringed instruments
with great deal of pleasure. To think
that we have, among the sons of Ha-
wall nei, one who is capable of impart-
ing the knowledge of this beautiful ac-
complshment when even those from
abroad have taken Advantage during a
short residence, is indeed a credit
On Saturday evening, April 20, the
music from the strings of the pupils
Of the Kaai Music School will battle
the walls of the Young Hotel pavilion
with melody and harmony.

nHAWAIANS' NERVES
AND IMAGINAT IONS''
NEW YORK WORLD THINKS
THEY ARE ACTIVE OR HAWAII
Is FULL OF JAP SPIES.

The New York Sunday World Of
March 81 has the following:
Unless the Hawaiians nerves and
imaginations have been overweight
by recent war talk, Honolulu is full
.of japanese military spies of high
degree. They are supposed to have
been the men who photographed the
coast line OF Oahu a few years ago,
and the ones who are watching and
investigating every move of the sur
veyors who are now laying the lines
.of Honolulu's Notifications. 1t is said
that a highly intelligent body of Japa-
nese is represented by recent appl-
cants for mental jobs at Kaimuki-
young men of fine address who show
no signs of having labored, and who
make the most Indifferent cooks and
yardboys.
Possibly these are japanese officers
who wish to be near any Notifications
which may be built in that neighbour
hood, and to have an excuse for being
there.

Samuel Thomas Clears up Neat Sum

S. A. Thomas, young man
who commenced business for
himself six years ago in Custer
County with cash in his pocket
to the amount of five dollars and
an Indebtedness for the same
amount, sold out last week with
net balance of twelve thousand
dollars.
He commenced by buying land
on the installment plan and en-
gagged in farming to make his
payne hts. He soon found him
self farming on large scale and
he continued TO add to his real
estate possesscssion and con-
tinued to increase his indebted
ness.
He finally leased his land and
engaged in other lines of work
as opportunity afforded but made
realestate deals his principal
object. He had got control of
about 1000 acres of land and it
was the sale of this land to r. r.
Ryerson for $4,000 that de-
valoped what he had made in the
six years. Twelve hundred acres
of the land was home farm which
he had got together in the vi
cinity of Ash Creek, southwest
of this city and the other 800
acres were in Lincoln county
where he had been dealing in
realestate the past year. In the
deal he got the Ryerson residence
west of the Globe Hotel, which
his father and mother will &C.
cupy as soon as he gets posses
sion. Out of the $21, 900, he has
to his own credit, with all his
obligations met, $4,000 to the
good.
Not every young man can ex-
pect to succeed quite so we'll,
but let it be an incentive to young
men TO start in with a purpose
and to add something each year
to their possessions, instead of
spending more than they make
and in few years the chances
are, by industry and economy,
they will have a fine balance to
their credit.

Thursday, Feb, %, 1907.

Having become tired of paying
for a mixture that threa tens to
destroy their farms, the tillers of
Nebraska soil will begin a
crusade for pure seed. Hundreds
of instances are cited where
farmers have received seeds of
devastating weeds when they
ordered grass and grain seeds.
Not only were they cheated out
of the value of their money, but
what was still worse they were
sent seeds that produced crop
destroying weeds that overrun
the land and cost hundreds of
dollars to eradicate. Next to the
wretch who sells poisonous and
adulterated foodstuffs to ruin the
he lth of consumers, the dealers
who impose on the farmers by
palming off adulterated seeds are
the worst.
