onths, days perhaps, when the bus
mess of the Territory will be con-
Quoted in Hilo. The seat of govern
nlent will be moved to Hilo: the Su-
preme Court will have to hold it's
sessions in Hilo; the next session of
the Legislature cannot meet in any
ether place than EIilo. Why, Homo
lulu will be known only as a place to
which the Hilo Promotion Commit,
tee will send the overflow of its tour
lists to see the relics of the former
capital"
I And as 1t is Saturday am waiting
anXiOusly for my pay envelope so
that can soak the thirty cents which
invariably set aside for a rainy day
in IIilo real estate.
| ! wandered into a local restaurant
one day this, week about lunch time
with longing for something, / didn't
know exactly what | felt that it
had to be something unusual, some
thing that one doesn't get every day,
to tickle an appetite faded by over
indulgence in canvasback duck, truf-
fles, $10-a-pound grapes, and such
other ordinary eatables as newspaper
reporters ordinarily indulge in.
/ picked up the bill of fare and
glanced at it without any great hope
of finding anything that would APP
PEAL to me. My eye was Immediately
caught by one item in the middle of
the sheet, and | knew that | had
found something that was at least
new. 1t read "Chilli corn crane Mex
style" ordered some, and, shades
. of liquid-voiced senoritas it turned
out to be chile con carne! And the
stuff was made by a Jap, at that,

A prominent local divine has a
young daughter who at times stumps
her reverend sire with her unexpect-
ed remarks. Some time ago she
| handed him one which has set the
congregation chuckling quite a lit
tie.
1t was after the service at which
the reverend gentleman had deliver
ed sermon which was far shorter
than his usual effusions, when the
young lady came up to her father
smiling brightly.
Papa" she said, 81 never heard
Iyou preach a sermon which / liked
as much as the one you delivered to-
day"
Indeed, my child" said the hap
Ply father, blushing with pleasure
And now tell me, dear, what was
there about it that you particularly
liked?"
! The young lady beamed on her IA
Their as she delivered her verdict.
Its shortness.
There is a smart one up on Wilder
Iavenue. She is six years old. In an
swer to her query her father told her
that he went down town every day tC
earn bread and butter for her and her
mother She followed him slyly tc
the door, and just as he was about to
depart she whispered. We've got lots
of bread and butter, papa. Can't you
earn some jam today"

| | noticed a statement along the
first of the week in regard to the
Sheriff dressing up some of his Off
GERS in citizens clothes so that they
might observe the excessive speed of
the automobiles throughout the city
That seems funny. Better put them
into their uniforms or they will get
run over
There are three kinds of folks in
this town (when they are all at
home) the Citizens. the people,
and the Governor. 1t is bit hard to
distinguish them except when there
is a Federal building site on tap;
then they take on the appearance of
. lot of electromagnetic with their
negative poles turned to a common
center.
| !. /. I.
| Being more or less out among men
in my daily rounds and therefore in
contact with the practical side of
| life, ] went to prayer-meeting We'd
nesday night to hear some of my
| friends offer mp their alteration and
discourse on their ideals.
i Try it some time. It's very inter-
j esting.
After spending night in serious
! thought on the possibilities of the
different candidates who have an in
sane desire to fill the chair that Mr..
Roosevelt occupies at the present time
II have come to the conclusion that
Taft could carry Cuba, Porto Rico
and the Philippines.
