DOC CATCHER GETS
into A MIX"UP

The official dog catcher of the ponce
department created a scene on King
street, near Nuuanu avenue, yesterday
afternoon and was the object of good
many uncomplimentary remarks from
a crowd which gathered. In his official
capacity he had lassoed a dog, the
property of a woman marketer, VINO
tried to rescue her pet and tell the OF
dcer that the taxes had been regularly
paid. The officer was fairly well on ms
way towards intoxication, however ana
refused to listen, becoming more or
less abusive The dog was finally taken
away from him by some members OF
the crowd and the lady and the, res
cued canine put in a hack CatchlRg
dogs is a job that calls for soo1
deal Of tact, and the clearest-headea
officer is apt to get into trouble, muen
more so one who carried on as the oos
catcher did Yesterday.

HOTEL LICENSES
NippOnese Bonifaces Aspire to

There was a meeting of the Board
of License Commissioners yesterday
afternoon. It was expected that Judge
Perry would present his argument for

to be present.
for a hotel license was received. This
is the one hundred and tenth applica-
ton for a Hcence made TO the License
Board. 1t is wanted for a japanese
hotel that extends from Kukui street to
Bishop lane, about 3 hundred feet west
of Nuuanu avenue. Hirano says in his
application that his hotel contains
twenty-four furnished rooms, three
dining rooms, and six dining tables.
His petition is gotten up in faultless
form, and includes a well-traced mar
of the region for a thousand feet IN
each direction, together with the names
of the owners of every parcel OF land
within that area.
Hirano wants a license in the same
class as that of the Young, the Moana'
the Seaside and the Hawaiian, and the
privileges, like them, of selling on
sundays and after hours. This is the
first application for a hotel license from
a Japanese. but it is expected that
there will be several others.
The board spent the most of the al
+arnoon in the ioyIeSs task of reading
and annroving minutes. A day will be
set for hearing Judge Perry in the
Cobweb saloon matter.

Southern Railway Officials.

A party of Southern railway officials, including J. s. B. Thompson, assistant to President W. W. Finley, and J. M. culp vice president in charge of traffic, arrived in Birmingham yesterday and will remain until this afternoon or to- night.
 MT. Culp is calling on the large ship pers and talking over the outlook for busi- ness the new year. He has met many of the coal and furnace operators and today will pay his respects to those he missed in making his rounds yesterday. While traffic is falling off now, we hope to find our business improving after the holidays" said Mr. Culp. Birmingham people are predicting better times in Janu- ary and a revival In the iron market within the near future"
 MT. Thompson, who gives a good deal of his attention to the construction work on the Terminal station. said it would be pushed steadily to completion. He said that workmen who had been laid off tenn porarily would be put back on their jobs next Monday. It would not be long, Mir Thompson said, before the Terminal com pany had the interior finishing work un- der way.

Death of Buck Hinrichsen.

The death of former Congressman w. H. Hinrichsen at his home near Jack sonville. H., removes a picturesque fig ure from Illinois politics." said a former resident of that state.
 Buck Hinrichsen, as he was famil- iarly known, was a born politician, and became famous for his ability as an or ganizer. He was elected secretary of state Of Illinois at the time of the democratic landslide which placed Altgeld in the gov- ernor's chair. In his later years, how ever, Hinrichsen lost his grip completely. lie moved out to small farm, which was practically all he had in the world. and there made a living by writing short stories Of his political experiences for the newspapers. He was stricken with pa ralysis two years ago and never re- covered.
 His career was but another example or the end of a. man who is a politician above everything else. With all his faults Hinrichsen was a lovable man and had loyal friends.
 By the way, he had large acquaint- ance in the south. and especially in Ala bama. His connection with the democrat ic national committee for several years took him to all parts of the country, and Tn the days when the democratic party was In power there were few men with a wider acquaintance than Buck Hinrich- sen of Illinois,

season. It Is the duty of all to make Christmas a children's holiday, and whoever asks for letters from the little folks in this city would incur no new obligatIon-no obligation at all that his heart does not prompt him to meet. A Philadelphia lady has requested the delivery at her house of all letters ad- dressed to Santa Claus, and she is re- ceiving a great mail, but she is no doubt having the happiest Christmas season she has ever known. Birming- ham needs just such a person. The time is short, and the children's mis- sives are ingenious and touching. They should not go wholly unanswered.

AMERICAN ARISTOCRATS.

From the St. Louis Globe Democrat.
 As to titles of nobility. there are per haps dozen families in this country who are able to show a descent, under genea- logical forms, from coroneted houses, It is a strange fact, or at least it must. strike snobs and flunkeys as strange, that these families have never asserted their claims, never had their pedigree printed, never have spread the branches of their family trees in the newspapers, and never will. This is due to combination of high quali7 ties, each one of which marks them as noble, with or without the titles they might claim. First, it shows the fine pride of disdaining to mourn, in public, what the world would call a departed glory. Next, it is the expression of the contempt of proud and independent spirits of the gaudy baubles which only cravens and footmen worship. And lastly, since all of these families run back to the revo- lutionary days, and all of them in that day were Wings, it is the survival of . fine and splendid American patriotism, higher, perhaps, because it's earliest an- cestors here were punished in court cir culars peerages and other inane publica- tions in which the royalty and nobility of that day as of this. made themselves ridiculous

City Revenues Next Year

The new license schedule will add about $50,000 to the citys revenue next year, and even prudent expendi- lures in all branches of city work would not make both sides meet. More revenue is needed, and the Board of Aldermen should have the courage to spread the burden equitably and broad ly in street tax A tax of s5 per capita would perhaps make good the remaining loss of liquor licenses, and even a tax of $3 head would go a long way in that direction.
 The equity and fairness of stree. tax is beyond question, for whoever shares in municipal advantages-in good streets and sidewalks. in police protection, in security from fire, in sanitary measures and in all the other benefits conferred by the city--should also share the burden of their cost. No citizen should seek to evade the pay ment of per capita tax of 8 unless he considers municipal advantages dear at that price. If they are worth anything at all they are worth 8 to any citizen.
