VALENTINE SOCIAL At
SUSANNA WESLEY HOME

What was undoubtedly the most sue
cessful and largely-attended function
of the kind ever held in connection
with the work of the Susanna Wesley
Home took place at it's institution,
King street, on Thursday evening. 1t
was in the nature of valentine social.
A conspicuous feature of the entertain
ment, which give rise to much mirth
and humor, was the sale and distribu-
ton of valentines. The affair was
complete success, every item of the
program being rendered in first-class
style. The children of the home were
greeted with much applause for the
manner in which they acquitted them
selves. There was evidence to all of
much patient and efficient training on
the part of the superintendent in
charge, Miss Mack, and her friend. Miss
Walker.
The proceeds of the entertainment
will be used for the purchase of a
piano, which is much needed for the
more successful conduct of the work.

MRS, IMAN|SHI
IN NEW YORK CITY

The New York Herald, speaking of
a former resident of Honolulu, says:
Mrs. KENT Imanishi, who lives in
No. 2 West Ninety-fourth street, has
become more identified with local in
terests than any other member of the
Japanese colony. She is active in sew
eral clubs and phiianthropic organiza7
tions and is quite the idol Of her Japa@
nese sisters, not only because of her
own particularly endearing qualities
but because of her proficiency in the
English language, which she speaks
perfectly. She is a woman of rare pera
sonality, with exceptional breadth of
mind and gentle and charming man.
ners. 1t is not strange that her English
education should have extended be-
yond that of her sisters, for when
quite young she was taken to Homo
lulu to live and completed her educa-
ton there. After her marriage she
came some five years ago to New
York.
1T was through Mrs. Imanishi's in
fiuence that Mrs. Katsuda came here
at the beginning of the Russo-Japanese
war and raised $4,000 for school in
Toxic designed to educate the young
girls made orphans by the war.
MANY women prominent in New
York society became interested and
contributed generously, and the school
building is now completed and occu-

THE GOVERNOR
ON THE JAPANESE
His Reported Views Cause
Universal Public
Comment.

On the occasion of his regular audi
ence to the afternoon press reporters
yesterday, Governor Carter expressed
himself with great frankness on the
Japanese question in general
Il am perfectly willing that my
daughter should marry a Japanese
the Governor is quoted as saying. This
was modified, at a suggestion by Sec
rotary Atkinson, with the added pro-
viso that the bride should be willing
one.
The Governor went on to state that
he did not hold any of the race preju-
dice against the Japanese which was
frequently expressed. He had always
favored allowing them the privilege of
naturalization. Cases were known to
HIM where japanese had been married
TO white women and made better hus-
bands than many white men.
Governor Carter argued that there
was no reason for believing that the
Japanese would not assimilate with
the American people, any more than
existed in the case of the Italians and
the Irish.
As yet he had not arrived at any
definite opinion on the news from
w aSnlnSIOn relative JdpduGS0 re-
striction. Apparently the immigration
bill was in harmony with a suggestion
made by the Territorial government in
1904, when the protest was first made
in California against the Japanese go
ing to the Coast from Hawaii. At
that time Japan was the only source
of labor for the Hawaiian plantations,
but other sources of labor had since
been developed.
The Governor did not wish to i'm
ply that he was opposing the immi-
grafton of Japanese labor to these is
lands, or to give the impression on the
other hand that he desired the orien-
talization of Hawaii.
There was something, in his opin-
ion, not yet revealed to account for
the Presidents vigorous action on the
Japanese question. He had sent Meth
ar inquiries nor suggestions to Wash
ington on the subject.
Governor Carriers sentiments were a
universal topic of conversation yes
terday evening wherever two or more
citizens met.

About 6 o'clock last evening, a u

man, walked into the Owl saloon and
asked Mr.. Shirly, the proprietor, 20 cash
a check Of $50 tor him. The check was
drawu by Newman on himself. He
claimed to have money in the bank, but
reached Elko too late to get it. He also
claimed tObe interested IN the sheep bus

Ell the check, but soon after came 70 the
conclusion that he had Teen swindled.
The town was searched Tor Newman, but
be could not be found, Several freight
trans were III the yard and the officers
concluded that New man had taken one
OF them for the west. A telegram was
sent to Constable Christopher at Carlin
and he caught tie young man. The
constable brought him to Elko this
morning and NIr. Shirley made u Coz
plant against him charging him with
obtaining money under false ~pretenses.
II Is said that the young map gave

is his correct name. Whatever hil
name may be, he viii have to answer
before Judge Bruce and take the medi

WHAT CARELESSNESS MEANS

The latest census bureau bulletin
gives the per capita Indebtedness OF the
natioL as S'4.5o, but adds that for every

afs financial condition, on its face. aud
while the nation is made up Of iDdiyid.

capacities, cannot safely proceed on the
theory that the national wealth If

In fact many prominent t!nanciers

The day comes when he is sorry, along

The reason that financial authorities

the end means %stagnation and hard

1t is refreshing to tipd that, at least,

schedule is doomed, no matter how
