SCHLEMMER SCORES
LAND Commissioner
Has No Time To Attend
To Laysan Island
Lease

The Bulletin has received the
following communication from King
Schlemmer of Laysan Island:
Honolulu, T. H., July 81, 1908. ,
Editor Evening Bulletins:
As | am a subscriber of yours hope
you will allow me to have some space
in your paper.
Seeing in last nights paper that
Land Commissioner Pratt will soon
leave to see Secretary Garfield, I hope
that when he does see him that he
will see him for the benefit of the
poor man as well as for the rich. as
in Honolulu he seems to have no time
to talk to the poor man but has lots
to spare to talk to the rich.
1t is now about fourteen days ago
that I went one morning at eight
o'clock to the Land Office where I
met Mr.. Tucker. whom asked to see
Mr.. Pratt. He went in TO tell Mr..
Pratt Coming out, he said, "All
right, Max. Mr.. Pratt will see you as
soon as he is through with Honor
able Cooper" l waited there at least
twenty minutes. Hearing and seeing
both of them laughing and chatting
all the while.
After the expiration OF that time
Mr.. Cooper and Mr.. Tucker went out
together. Mr.. Tucker, before he left,
told one of the Hawaiian men in the
office to tell Mr.. Pratt that Mr..
Schlemmer was waiting.
To my surprise, the man came
back and told me that Mr.. Pratt
could not see me this morning as he
was too busy with the mail.
was all taken back and asked the
man whether Mr.. Pratt really said
SO. The man said Eyes"
The man stated that Mr.. Pratt
would see me some time in the after
noon. But as have n wife and ten
children to support and have been
without work for the last four

Killing a Salary Raise.

In vetoing the bill providing for the increase of the salary of the clerk of the Boston license commis- sion by S1,000, Acting Governor Dra- per remarked that the city of Bos- ton needs this money at present quite as badly as this office holder, and that this is no time to add to the expenses of the city when the municipal administration is wres- ting earnestly with the problem of curtailing the cost of government. Considering that the clerk already receives a generous salary and that there is no question but thousand equally competent men could be se- cured to do the work for the same compensation, Mir Draper's veto and comment are both entirely justifi- able. Public expenditure goes so easily that it goes recklessly, and es- pecially in this matter of raising a salary here and salary there. In the aggregate the amount is enor- nous, though each increase is de- tended on the ground that 1t is a trivial mater. Public sentiment however, is with the governor in op- position to all these needless salary raising schemes at this time.-New Bedford Standard.

: MADAME NAZIMOYA.

It is really a sad commentary on the American stage to think that such a brilliant actress, as such she has proven herself to be, should se- lect for presentation such risque and most suggestive comedy as that of "Comtesse Coquette," which was produced at Polls theater last even ing by the much advertised Russian actress, Madame Nazimova, and a company of four. From almost the very rise of the curtain until it had been rung down on the third act, there was not the slightest attempt to keep within the moral bounds of propriety. Even the poses and dress of Madame Nazimoya and almost the general conversation contributed the most suggestive situations. It is not a comedy that teaches or attempts to teach moral lesson. for not every woman throws herself into the way of temptation and escapes un- scathed. The failure of the madame to master the pronunciation of the English language had its good and bad effects. Good perhaps because some of the risque passages escaped comprehension, and bad in parts be- cause it was impossible to follow her in her work. The supporting con- pany was we'll and evenly balanced and the stage enactment and scenic effects were excellent contributories to the presentation,

PARENT AND TEACHER.

The young ladies of the Horace Mann high school in New York have been directed by the principal to dis continue wearing puffs, rings, brace lets, embroidered shirt waists, fancy topped boots and high-heeled shoes and hats of certain popular and picturesque design. All such arti- cles of apparel and many others are declared to be in violation of the canons of elevated taste in personal adornment.
 Grudgingly the girls have com. piled with the official prohibition, and the parents have been silent on the matter. The principal explains that the school takes an extraordinary interest in its pupils, and not only in their intellectual development. We assume a responsibility for their whole daily life, in some instances even stipulating the number of hours that a boy or girl should sleep"
 If this extraordinary interest should be extended much further in the case of high school pupils or of any other grade of scholars above the kindergarten, it might be worth while inquiring what the exact re- lation of the parents is to be to chil. dren. the main and minor details o, whose lives are to be regulated by a power outside the home.

JACQUES
MEN AND WOMEN. |"

Mir Hartford gives splendid per- formance this week in Men and Women" at the Jacques, David Be- lasco's powerful drama. He puts in- dividuality into the part of William Prescott, the bank cashier. The play tells very dramatic story of big deal in stocks, which fails and involves the loss of large amount of money. The blame of the loss falls upon an innocent man and the confession of the guilty. man is brought about in a remarkable scene. Miss Susan Van Duzer has charm ing role as Agnes Rodman and plays 1t with appreciation. The supporting company is excellent. Next week the attraction will be By Right of Sword" romantic play, and on Monday eevning a benefit perform ance will be given for St Mary's hos pital. Seats for the benefit perform anee went on sale this morning and there is sure to be big demand for them.

A FAMOUS APPLE.
New Account of the Original Tree
 Back in 1784.

Honor to whom honor is due fol the Baldwin apple! For some years past monument has stood conspicu ously in the little Massachusetts town of Wilmington, proclaiming tt the citizens thereof, and to all whc journeyed thither, that one Samue Thompson discovered and gave this succulent fruit to the world in the year 1793 Now comes the present occupant of the old Baldwin mansion there with evidence that the Bald win apple must have existed long be- fore the date commonly assigned tC it, and that he has in his possession letter written in 1784, which i'm plies both it's existence and its ex- cellence. MT Bowdoin presents his respectful compliments, it reads, "tC Colonel Baldwin and begs him to ac. cept his thanks for the barrel of ap l ples he sent for which he is much l obliged to him, and the more so, as 1 the apples are ye produce of so un. common a tree" While we are not here told that the apple so profusely | praised is the one now so renowned I the implication is that it is especial ly as on the back thereof is memo randum in Colonel Baldwins own handwriting, in which he refers to his present as "a barrel of particular species of apple which proceeded from a tree that originally grew spontan- eously in the woods about fourteen miles north of Boston"
 Hence pomological history must bt rewritten and the ancestry of the l Baldwin apple antedated. A com mittee of three has been appointed by the worthy Wilmingtonions to in vestigate the story, and if it is found true, to revise the records ant to re- move the misleading inscription upon the Thompson monument. It will not do for future generations to be misled upon so important point. and what can be more important both to the world at large and to Whining
 ton than that the truth should Dc told? The name of Baldwin must and shall be preserved in monument al marble, as well as in the hearts ol apple lovers.-Boston Budget.

THE STUPID SWAN.
Graceful and Beautiful. the Bird Is a
 Nincompoop.

To the mind of the average farmer nothing which walks on two legs is quite so stupid as hen He is mis- taken, though. for there still remains that beautiful, graceful nincompoop the common swan. The swan is sc low part of pond and allow the wa ter to freeze around its legs till the ice is so thick that 1t cannot lift it's feet and 1t is stuck fast. Not infre- quently owners of these handsome but witless birds are compelled to chop away sufficient ice to make it possible for them to withdraw their imprisoned feet.
 The stupidity of the swan in this respect is emphasized by the intelli- gence exhibited by ornamental ducks when the weather turns cold. As night comes on and the water be- gins to freeze. the ducks begin swim ming in a wide, well defined circle Round and round they go during the entire night, keeping all the water within that circle free from ice, SC that when the day dawns they car float about and doze in the sun Ducks are always most active dur. ing the night, and choose the day fol sleeping.
 But to return to the swan. If vol find one of these birds some distanc, from the water and startle it, thu swan will rush few feet toward tht pond and then drop down on tn, ground and try to go through the mo tions of swimming, apparently unabl, in it's fright to realize that it has no yet reached the water.
 Neither is the common swan a gooc fighter. The black swan, althougt one-half it's size, is invariably the vic tor in the combats which are some times engaged in and generally kill its antagonist. The black swan usual ly provokes the fight, too, for it il rather quarrelsome bird.-Wash ington Star.

To be fully appreciated Redfern must be worn. We can tell you many truths concerning their beauty of form and satisfactory wearing qualities, but in wear they soon prove their worth. Model X is cut de- cldedly high and straight at the top to accord with the present modes. It sharply curves to define the waist, giving roundness irrespective of the straight line at the front.
