AN OLD REPORT
On HAWAII
Interesting Report at Hawaiian
Historical Society Annual
Meeting Last Night.

The Importance Of the Hawaiian Is
Pacific Ocean and as a strategic place
Of Importance in case of war is not a
latter-day discovery. Tt was treated
upon in a report furnished the Secre-
tary OF State for War and the Colo
MES and the Lord Commanders of the
Admiralty Of Great Britain by Com
mander Alexander McKonochie, of the
British Navy, as long ago as 1915, four
years before the first American mis-
sionary landed at Lahaina. In the
same report was shown the Importance
of this group which would follow the
building of the Panama Canal by the
Americans, the author showing a fore
sight in his predictions and views to
be wondered at in the light OF events
Of the present. The report was ac-
companied by a map Of the South Seas
which might well be the one from
which the Promotion Committee took
their map, showing the Hawaiian Is
lands as the hub of the Pacifc.
A copy of this report and map was
shown at the annual meeting Of the
Hawaiian Historical Society last night,
being one Of the several interesting
matters brought up. Tue meeting was
we'll attended, the board room Of the
library being packed with members.
There was some difficulty in hearing
all that was said and read, the speak
ers having to contend with the Y IL
c. a. roundup across the way and
laughing chorus from a monograph
nearby.
The regular reports of the officers of
the society were read, showing a
healthy state of finances and satisfac-
tory progress in each of the other
branches
The election of officers for the ensu-
ing year gave the following results:
Professor w. D. Alexander, reelected
president; Governor Carter, first vice
president: Rev. Alexander Macintosh,
second vice president; DR.. J. s. Emer-
son, third vice president; ". A. Bryan,
corresponding secretary; Judge w. F.
Frear, recording secretary; ". w

HANDCUFF KING TO
APPEAR FRIDAY
MatzOni Will Make Unusu-
ally Clever Escape.

Matzoni, the handcuff king and jail
breaker, will appear at Glover's OPP
era House Friday afternoon and
night His recent visit to Americas
is well-remembered His work in
breaking out of a cell at the police
station after being bound and tied to
the bars was a great mystery to those
who saw him tied in the cell and the
door locked.
His stage work was also puzzling
and entertaining.
A free exhibition will be given next
Friday in front of the opera house
just before the matinee, at which
Matzoni's trained dog will dive from
the top of high ladder into net
In one of the specialties for the
evening performance Matzoni will get
into a common dry goods box which
will be nailed up tightly and bound
with ropes From this box he will es-
cape, leaving the fastenings untouch-
ed The escape is entirely without
assistance, Matzoni being alone in
the cabinet at the time. The box will
be placed on exhibition in a prom
inent store window and can be ex-
amined by any one to see that there
is no deception about it.

might RIDERS" ARE
REVIVING KU-KLUX DAYS
Ny. Tobacco Growers Fight
the Trust.

LOUISVILLE, KY, Dec. 17-(Spe-
ciaD-The Might Riders" have reviv-
ed in Kentucky the terror of the Ku-
Klux days. Their last exploit was to
seize Hopkinsville, a city of 10000
inhabitants, the largest in Southern
Kentucky.
Five hundred riders, wearing black
masks and with white badges pinned
to their shoulders, Slipped into the
city at 2 a. m. They burned 100000
worth of property, fired so many vol
leys through the town that the dam
age from shattered glass alone is es-
timated at $4,000, left two men SER
iously wounded and departed with
out encountering opposition in their
work of destruction. In an encoun-
ter with a posse afterward one of
the raiders is said to have been kill
ed.
The night riders are the most con-
spicious feature of the war that is
being waged by the tobacco growers
of Kentucky against the American To-
bacco Company BY reducing the
competition in the buying of tobacco
to practically nothing that company
forced down the price of leaf tobacco
until the growers say they cannot
realize enough to pay for raising it.
The tobacco crop is a mainstay in
many parts of Kentucky, and thou
sands depend on it for their daily
bread The growers determined to
force the price up.
The Hopkinsville raid was the
second time in u months that the
riders seized and terrorized city,
December 1, 1906, they enterd Prince
ton, KY, town of several thousand
inhabitants, about 80 miles north
of HOpkinsville, took possession of
the Police and Fire Departments, the
WaterwOrks, the telephone and tele-
graph offices, and with the town shut
off from the rest of the world. dyna-
mited and set fire to the Steger &
Dollar and the John c. Orr tobacco
factories, which were allied with the
trust. The damage here was $780,
OOO.
The first appearance of the night
raiders was in November, 1906, when
they destroyed some tobacco barns
and small factories in Todd county,
with a loss of about $4,000. The
III % lalu CdlIIS Ou the hight OIL NOV
ember II, 1906 when masked bands
entered the towns of Eddyville and
Kutawa, situated close together in
Lyon and Caldwell counties, and des-
troyed the plants of the American
Snuff Company and NJ c. Rice, with
$4,000 loss
With the same object as the night
riders, though following different me-
thods, are the day raiders, or peace
full army, as it is known. This is
composed of growers who go through
the tobacco district in the daytime
trying to persuade other growers to
pool their tobacco.
They do not use force, thinking that
the moral suasion of the call from
20 to 80 men will suffice for the
average planter.

SANTA CLAUS VERY MUCH ALIVE
Is Santa Claus dead?
Well, we should say not.

Wen, we should say not.
Instead of being merely a mythical
parsonage, whose rumored doings set
the children aglow with expectancy,
but who was never mentioned in the
census returns, o1 this Christmas he
will be a real parsonage so far as
Uncle Sam is concerned.
For the first time the PostofIlce Ne
partment has needed the cry of the
children, and letters addressed to
Santa Claus" will be delivered just
like a letter addressed to John
Smith, provided of course, that the
town and state are given. Uncle Sam
guarantees to find the street and
number
Postmaster General Myers, in his
order to the postmasters on the
subject says Until the close of the
first day of January, 1908, postmasters
are directed to deliver all letters ar
irving at their respective postoffices
addressed plainly and Enthusiastically to
Santa Claus" without any other
terms or expressions Identifying the
person for whom such letters are
intended, to any regular organized
charitable society in the city or town
of address"
While a good part Of the deception
which has been practiced on the
children has been rubbed off, yet
strange to say the veneration for the
character who by a pleasant fiction
is credited with being the sole author
of Christmas cheer among the little
folks, and older folks as well, has
not been abated. As the common law
has not been consigned to the scrap
heap because statutes have covered
at least a part of the field, so the
modern materialism, though it has
torn away the mask of the benevolent
fairy in a measure, has not abated
one whit the love and veneration in
which Santa" is held by high and
low.
By the decree of the Postmaster
General the headquarters Of Santa
Claus has been established in every
city and town, and Santa is more
of a reality than ever before, This
official recognition of his identity
gives the benevolent old gentleman
standing which he has before lacked.
To all his children, Uncle Sam
sends the message that Santa Claus
has at last, after all these years,
been entered on the postoffice books
as a citizen whose mail is deliverable
anywhere Instead of one Santa, there
are tens of thousands.
Santa Claus is not only not dead,
but he is decidedly the most alive
of any person we know Of Men may
come and go, but dear old Santa
lives on forever
May his multiple personality never
grow less!

WILL PAY SAD TRIBUTE
TO MEMORY OF DEAD
AmeriCuS Bar in Memorial
Exercises.

The Americas Bar Association will
convene at 10 o'clock this morning in
the superior courtroom for the pur-
pose of holding memorial exercises
as a merited tribute to the memory
of one of their number and one of
Georgia's distinguished jurists, Judge
Allen Fort. Feeling and eloquent adj
dresses will be delivered by members
of the bar, and the occasion will be
alike touching and beautiful. The
general public and friends of the de-
ceased are respectfully invited to be
present.
