TELEPHONE DELINQUENCTEs.

The late night service of the tele-
phone company has been particularly
bad in the matter of giving attention
to calls and the operators are usually
impertinent when they are asked to
ring more than once or to answer
questions. Evidently they do not care
to be disturbed! The value of the
service to night customers would be
greatly increased by the employment
of an intelligent and courteous Cen
trail" 1t seems superfiuous to patron
of the system when asking that
sleepy number be rung up again to
be asked Whats the matter with
him.

Mrs Minnie MadIern Fisl

Mrs. Minnie Maddern Fiske, the
actress, said of vivisectionists at a re-
cent luncheon in New York:
They try to advance plausible argu-
ments, these yivisectienists; but they
are defending an impossible subject.
and their statements are like an old
salt I once met on a sunny beach.
There was a ship in the offing. and
the salt took from his pocket col
lapsible telescore. He extended it till
1t was over a yard long. Then he babe

What fine telescope I said after
I had looked duly.

old salt, heartily. There amt no finer

POLICE NEWS.

The police are hotfoot on the trail of
smother escape. This time they are
after Private Pool. a soldier from Fort
Shafter who is thought to be wanted
m Sacramento, California, on a charge
Il sheft. Information was given to the
police which would probably have led to
the mans arrest had it not been given
so Date. and the suspect was evidently
appraised of the news concerning him
which had arrived here for when Chief
of Detectives Taylor went out to Fort
Smarter Friday afternoon, to make an
investigation; the man wanted had
sefr and told no one where he intended
Co go.
Yesterday a careful watch was kept
an all the vessels leaving here, and
II is not thought at present that the
man made his escape. During the day
rhe police were informed in a letter
purporting to come from a friend Of
N desperate man and was armed and
would just as soon be hunted as a
murderer as thief. The letter also
stated that the man was at least
seventy-ffve miles from Honolulu on
TIE water at the time the police were
reading the letter and that it would
be no use to try and find him
Chief Taylor is of the opinion that
the writer of the letter is no other
than the suspect himself who is trying
10 run a bluff on the police. A care
Tnl search is being made and all yes
sells leaving here viii be thoroughly

RuFfIANLLY THREATS

A man believed to be an expelled

N Chinese young woman, and frighten-
ed abe child by threatening the life
NJ her father. He said that arrange
Eserts had been made to kill Mr..
Thwing if he did not let other peo-
pies affairs alone. The child had a
severe nervous shock.
A few days ago burly ruffian shook
his fist in Mr.. Thwing's face and he
has been subjected to other indigni-

These affairs have created great in

REPUBLICAN LEADERS
FEAR DEMOCRATIC GAINS

The Republican leaders, who met in
have decided that there is no use in
starting ANYTHING in the way of a cam
paign in Oahu until the present county
committee is cleaned out and men elect
ed to it of a different, stamp, while it
is also probable that advantage viii be
taken of the reformation to put some
better Oahu material into the Territor-
ial committee. Until this is done, so
it was decided, the party leaders will
lie low and do nothing.
The activity among the Democrats
and the warnings that have been COM
ing to the ears of the Republicans of
waiian voters were responsible for the
calling of Fridays meeting, at which
the situation was gone over and the
question of what was best to be done
debated 1t was felt that there ought
to be some back fire started to check
the spread of the Democratic bonfire,
but it was realized that the party would
be only hurting itself by going into
any night with the present misfts on its
two executive boards. The regular time
for the election of county committeeman
is the first week in July, and it is con-
ceded that the personnel of the county
board at least will be completely
changed
Under these circumstances it was de-
eided to grin and bear it until that
time, with the knowledge that it would
be better to let the Democrats work
along undisturbed in the meanwhile
than to start out against them with the
weak sisters in command of the ship.

PAY TRIBUTE Of FLOWERS
AND REMEMBRANCE

| Continued from Page Two)
Their guns on shore were silenced
soon,
Their flags were down ere flush OF
noon.
| Their ships, their batteries on the shore
| Were gone in fame and crimson gore
Their loss thousand men or morel
Dawned on tie fleet that Dewey led
A miracle while Snaniards bled.
For on our side was not one dead
The battle of Manila Bay
From mind shall never pass away
Nor deeds of glory wrought that day;
For mid that battles awful roar
The Spanish pride, to- rise no more,
Was humbled by our Commodore.
And Freedom g isles in Orient sea
Shall monuments eternal be
Of Dewey's Deathless Victory.
That victory gave us an imperial
prestige among the nations of the
earth, sealed the fate of the sons of
Spain and benefcently settled, under
the flag of Freedom, the destinies of
many millions of downtrodden men.
The map of the world changed colors
and new stars cleaned in the azure
field of the American armament; Ha-
waii brought her beautiful constellation
under the flag and the Paradise of the
Pacific took on a radiant prosperity
that IS but a meager dawn to the splen-
doris of wealth and health and happi-
ness vet to come.
But it was your sacrifices, Comrades
of the Grand Army and Companions of
the Loyal Legion, 1T was your battles,
your triumphs which made our victory
possible and our Nation an honored
master among the wondering govern
ments of the world.
The consolidation of a mighty. in
divisible Union, through your heroism,
presaged the brilliant achievements of
later years. Your glory led to our sue
cess; your Union to our expansions;
your immortal deeds to our Country
eternal progress.
Here let me offer as closing tribute
to you and to all the silent soldiers and
sailors of the Republic, these simple
BLOSSOMS FOR THE BRAVE.
The fathers who fought for their affairs
and fires,
The sons who are honorlng yalorous
sires,
Are marching together in-laureate lines
And rallying round their memorial
shrines.
The shrines where the eedars and
jessamines grow,
Where zephyrs of incense caressingly |
blow,
Where monuments silent in majesty
stand |
And point ever up to Infnity's land.
For those who have gone DER the
valley before
To rapturous homes on Eternity s |
shore:
Wei gather again by the portals they
trod,
Meath evergreen trees on the soft
summer sod.
And garlands of flowers in fragrance
and bloom
Wen tenderly lay on the turf and the
tomb,
In token of love for our heroes sublime
Who live in the land beyond terror or
time. !
Then cover them over with beautiful
flowers
These God-taken, patriot heroes Of
ours:-
And give with each blossom a spirit of
