DOLLEY FAVORS IT.
Would Build a Memorial Historical
Hall With That 100000.

State Chairman j. n. Dolley, in an
interview expressed himself as fol-
lows on several matters of state in
terest:
Like other members of the IegisIa-
ture / have given some careful con-
sideration as to what should be done
with the 100000 collected from the
national government on an old debt
due the state of Kansas. I like the
suggestion of a historical and memoir
ial hall. The state house is so crowd
ed and the business of the state is
growing so that it is only a question
of time when some of the depart
ments will have to move out or the
state house be enlarged. and as the
property of the Grand Army of the
Republic will probably come to the
state when the soldiers of the civil
war are through with it, it might be
a good idea to eXpend a few thousand
dollars of this money to buy site for
historical and memorial building.
Future legislatures can complete this
work.
II am very strongly in favor of a
state fair A great state like Kansas
ought to have state fair equal to the
best in the union and believe the
proper thing to do is to decide to lay
a good substantial foundation for a
state fair to be in or near some city
that will meet the state half way in
donating grounds and putting up a
substantial sum against the amount
by the state.
"But one other matter needs,
think, prompt attention and that IS a
state sanitarium for consum ptives. The
increase in the annual number of vic
Tins of this great white plague is ap-
palling. A good share of this money
ought to go to estab blish a sanitarium
where the afflicted persons can go and
be nursed back to health. Those who
can pay should be charged a fair price
and the state should care for such
unfortunates who are unable to sup
port themselves.
This will be an expenditure of this
money which will do a vast amount OF
good. The historical and memorial
hall outlay will be for the intellectual
and patriotic interests of the state the
state fair will stimulate the Industrial
and commercial interests of the state:
and state sanitarium will enable the
state to do something in a humani-
tartan way for an unfortunate class Of
it's citizens who should have a first call
upon its care and protection, and help
to stamp out a plague that annually
takes such a terrible toll of human life.
ST do not suppose that the $1c@ 600
above mentioned will be sufficient to
esta blish all of these undertakings.
but a further appropriation by the
legislature can be made to supply any
further funds needed"

COGHLAN IS DEAD.
Rear Admiral of the U. S. Navy
Passes Away.

New York. Dec. 5.-Rear Admiral
Joseph B. Coghlan is dead at his
home in New Rochelle. He was in
command of the New York navy yard
from 1904 to 1907. Rear Admiral
Coghlan's death occurred at 1880
O'Clock this morning at his home, 20
Park avenue, New Rochelle He re-
moved to that city only about two
weeks ago.
Rear Admiral Coghlan's death was
entirely unexpected He, with Mrs
Coghlan, was living at the home of
Charles Chamberlain, a former New
York newspaper man. in Sutton
manor. the residence section of New
Rochelle, while waiting for his new
home in that city to be ready for his
occupancy. The admiral was seen

HE FOUGHT WITH DEWEY.
Dead Admiral Commanded the RAJ
leigh at Manila Battle,

Washington, Dec. 5.-Sincere re-
gret was expressed on every hand to-
day when the news of the death of
Rear Admiral Joseph B. Coghlan be-
good story teller, he had hosts of
warm friends. both among officers
and those outside the service.
Admiral Dewey expressed himself
as shocked at the news Coghlan was
with Dewey at the battle of Manila
bay in command of the cruiser Ra-
leigh and he was promoted later for
his work in that battle. He enjoyed
degree and was dispatched by him on
various important missions while the
fleet was in the Philippines.
1t was Admiral Coghlan's popular
that involved him in the incident of
which much was made at the time
when the admiral recited the poem
''Hoch Der Kaiser which somewhat
ruffled the German authorities. The
incident occurred at a dinner which
the admiral attended and it was not
intended that the fact of the recital
should become public. However, it
appeared in newspapers and as it oc-
CURED after the return from Manila
where there had been some friction
with the German authorities the af-
fair was treated with more signifi-
canoe than perhaps the circumstances
otherwise would have warranted. The
navy department called on the ad-
miral for an explanation. The admir-
al replied that no disrespect was
meant by him toward the German
emperor and with this statement the
matter was allowed to drop.
Admiral Coghlan was a native of
Kentucky, where he was born in
1914. In the course of his distin-
guished career he had active services
in the civil war in the Spanish war as
second in command of the North At
lantic squadron on board the flag
ships Brooklyn and Olympia from
June 1902 to April 1, 1904, and more
commandaut of the New
York navy ward

ing and They Behaved Like
Society on Parade.

A lady called at the Bulletin office
yesterday and asked the editor to in
vent some means by which boys, es-
recially newsboys, may be kept quiet
or not make too much noise
This Is one OF the problems OF the
ages, and the editor gave 1t up.
The discovery has been made, how.
ever that boys can be kept quiet, even
Bull Ell IN newsboys.
Over one. hundred and twenty-five
Blu letin newsboys attended the
Orpheum theatre last evening as the
guests of the Orpheum management
and the Bulletin. And those
youngsters who are given to shouts
and cat calls and noise In all its forms
were so interested and thoroughly
amused that they kept quiet, for a
time, and then let loose with howls Of
applause and calls for more, at the
proper time.
To say that the youngsters enjoyed
themselves Is to put 1t mildly They
were bubbling over. and the good be
havior that marked their presence In
the theatre was very generally com
mented on. Joe Cohen was particular
~ pleased and the members of the
best vaudeville company Honolulu ha.
ever had, were happy to have such al
appreciative section in the audience
The program was a good one, as 1
always is, aud the house was wei
filed. To say that the kids under

and the only reason that one slate is

which is quite the reverse OF Repub
