to, the harbor at night is perilous. An
other steamer approached Kingston and

MAY TAP CRATER TO TAME SEA.
Hawaiians Plan to Utilize Lava in Con-
struction of Breakwater.

HONOLULU, II. L, Jan. 19.-HiIo
people have a novel scheme for the con-
struction of a breakwater for that har-
Dor. 1t is suggested by one of the Hilo
newspapers that some engineering plan
be arranged whereby the motion lava in
the crater of Kilauea be utilized in the
construction Of the breakwater. The
latest scheme that has been advanced is
} open a huge trench from the inner pit
of the crater of Halemaumau. inside Of
Kilauea crater, and divert the stream
of lava down the side of the mountain
into the sea. 1t is estimated that the
cost of such an undertaking would not
be a million dollars, and that the govern
ment would be able to save considerable
money.

STAFFORD LEADS FIGHT
MIL OPPOSE ADOLF
TON OF PENSION AGENCY.
Commissioner Warner Says if the Bill
Passes He'll Make Payments
Through Chicago Office.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. %. =
Especial. 1.-The house committee recon-
mendation to abolish nine of the United
States pension agencies aroused some in
terest among the Milwaukee representa-
tives.
Mr. Stafford called on Pension Com
missioner Warner today and learned that
the commissioner would recommend the
abolition of the Milwaukee agency if
the legislation went through, and make
payments in future through the Chicago
agency.
The Milwaukee representatives, led by
Mr.. Stafford, will resist the PROPOSE
ton.
Representative Dalzel of Pennsylva-
MIA states today that he intends to Or
ganize a fight against the proposed abo-
lition of the pension agencies. The
members of the committee defend the
action on the ground of economy. Mr..
Dalzell says it would be far more
economical to pay all pensions from
Washington, and will take the stand
that all the presetn agencies should go If
any of them be abolished in the interest
of economy.

THE REAL LINCOLN.
He Was Neither UngracefuI, Nor
Awkward, Nor Ugly.

He Was Neither UnSraceful, Nor
Awkward, Nor Ugly.
For many years it has been the
fashion to call Abraham Lincoln home
ly, says a writer. He was very tall
and very thin His eyes were deep
sunken, his skin Of a sallow pallor,
his hair coarse, black and unruly. Yet
he was neither ungraceful, nor awk-
ward, nor ugly. His large features
fitted his large frame, and his large
hands and feet were but right on a
body that measured six feet four
inches.
His was a sad and thoughtful face,
and from boyhood he had carried a
load of care. It is small wonder that
when alone or absorbed in thought the
face should take on deep lines, the
eyes appear as if seeing something be-
yond the vision of other men, and the
shoulders stoop, as though they too
were bearing a weight. But in a mo-
ment all would be changed. The deep
ewes could flash, or twinkle merrily
with humor, or look out from under
overhanging brows, as they did upon
the Five Points children, in kindliest
gentleness
So, too, in public speaking. When his
tall body rose to it's full height, with
head thrown back and his face trans
figured with the fire and earnestness
of his thought, he would answer Doug
las in the high, clear tenor that came
to him in the heat of debate, carrying
his ideas so far out over listening
crowds.
It has been the fashion, too, to say
that he was slovenly and careless in
his dress This also is mistake. His
clothes could not fit smoothly on his
eaunt and bony frame. He was no
tailor's figure Of man, but from the
first he clothed himself as we'll as his
means allowed and in the fashion of
the time and place.
In the same way he cared little for
the pleasures of the table. He ate
most sparingly. He was thankful that
food was good and wholesome and
enough for daily needs, but he could
No more enter into the mood of the
anicure for whose palate it is a matter
of Importance whether he eats roast
goose or golden pheasant than he
could have counted the grains Of sand
under the sea.
