LOOKED OVER THE HOUSE.
Leaving the key of an empty house
with a neighbor in order that likely
tenants may inspect the premises is
common. The owner of a house on
Lexington avenue has for good reason
decided to keep the key of his house
himself for the future.
Hearing that some one had been
looking over" the house, the landlord
called on the old woman who had been
entrusted with the key,
We'll, Mrs. - he said. $50
you've had party after the house?''
I'm not too sure" was the reply.
Want time to think it over, may
be?"
NO, I don't think he does. What he
wants is an opportunity. When he
got the key he went across the street.
and as I heard nothing from him for
an hour or so. I followed. He'd taken
ali the door-knobs and every ounce of
lead about the place, but he'd left the
house. Maybe he's coming back for
that, too, as he didn't return the key

lieved that they viii be heard from
| generously in the near future The feel
ing that the yacht is a matter which
concerns the pride of the entire Terri
tory has become widespread of late
and this was shown when Admiral
Beckley handed in donations of 1926
which he had obtained during the after
noon through his own personal solicita-
tions.
R. w. Single announced that the
stem of the new yacht would be here
on Thursday, also that the Hawaiian
Mahogany Lumber Company would
donate, further, the wood needed for
the interior fnishings and the rail. The
fact that the American Hawaiian
Steamship Company stood ready to give
the committee the benefit of free trans
portation for all materials which they
wished to have shipped by that line
was announced and received with en-
thusiasm.
When Alec Lyle was asked for figures
on the expense he stated that the cost
of building the hull, including the in
stallation of the rigging, would be in
the neighborhood of $4,000. The rig
ging itself, including sails, tackle and
other apparatus, is estimated at about
$4,000. 1t is believed that the keel
will cost about $500 at the outside and
extra sails, which will be made here
and used on the trip going up, or in
case the racing sails carry away, will
amount to another $500 with the cost
of the rough spars.
Besides this there will be many
things needed and the committee would
be glad to hear from any firms and
individuals who will donate any of the
needed fnishings for the interior. Pill
lows, curtains for the hunks, crockery,
stove and many other things of this
kind can be given by ladies of the
town, in some cases the work of their
own hands, which viii help the good
work along. A set of flags will be
needed and it is expected that the
schools which have sewing classes will
be heard from in this regard.
A resolution of thanks was passed to
Messrs McInerny and Wilder for the
hard work which they have done in
making the rounds of the local offices
collecting funds. That their work has
been appreciated by the members of
the committee and that it could not
have been improved on was the unani-
nous opinion. A resolution of thanks
to the press for its assistance was also
passed.

ADJUSTMENTS FOR THE PUBLIC.

Those Atlanta newspapers amuse
us.
Here they are scrapping again over
the port rate question.
The Constitution, with all the, zeal
of the new convert, froths at the
mouth and yells itself hoaroa against
the governor and the commission for
not eXpediating reforms.
The administration cannot ladle out
reforms fast enough to satisfy the
insatiate maws of the greedy Consti-
tuition. Every time it whacks a rail
road a thrill of satisfaction passes
from the garnet to the basement.
But the thrills are not coming fast
enough, and now it is screaming for
an extra session of the legislature.
Not far back the Journal which is
sometimes a triae more lurid, and
only occasionally a trife less lurid,
than the Constitution, was also an
advocate of an extra session.
Now the Journal says: Let the
governor do no such foolish thing
An extra session is not needed and
the large expense would be a wilful
waste of the public funds"
Atlanta will get the port rate in its
favor. Of that there is no doubt. But
the Constitution wants them within
the next tweny-four hours. Like
Hearst, the Journal now assumes a
more conservative tone, for this es-
pecial occasion and says: "Remem-
Der, dear convert, everything cannot
be done in a month. The commission
cannot compel important questions to
be settled without due investigation.
In the meantime the Constitution
ought to send around and ask the
Atlanta Stove Works how much
longer it intends to wait on the com
mission for port rates
