FIGHTS THIRD man

SAN FRANCISCO, November &c.
The matter of selecting a referee for
the Ketchel-Papke fight will be left in
the hands of Tom Jones'" said Joe o.
Connor, manager for Stanley Ketchel,
late last night. The only stipulation
| have made continued OConnor, els
that Jones must select either Jack
Welsh, Eddie Smith or Billy Roche.
Any one of the three is agreeable to
me, but will stand or no other"
Why O'Connor suddenly grew so
bland and phiianthropic as to allow
the opposition to pick the referee,
Joseph sayeth not. Probably OConnor
is imbued with the idea of treating
strangers with deep hostility.
One time rumor had it that Jim Cor
bett would referee, but Jim issued a
statement early last night in which he
said he would not act, saying that his
present theatrical business would not
allow him the time.
Anyhow, OConnor's statement would
preclude Corbett from acting as the
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1908-11-24

third man in the ring, but Corbett is
entitled to the credit of having declin-
ed to be mentioned for the place before
O'Connor issued his statement
Roches name in connection with the
refereeship of the fight is late card,
and even Billy must realize that he is
not seriously intended. Billy's name
is likely thrown in to make it appear
as though there are plenty of candi-
dates, fair field and no favor.
The withdrawal of Corbett leaves the
field open to Eddie Smith and Jack
Welsh, but from the undercurrent of
gossip in sporting circles yesterday it
would take no very smart man to name
the official that is meant for referee,
and just as a flyer it is safe to guess
that the referee will be Jack WEIGH.
At least, it was pretty thoroughly
understood yesterday that Jack Welsh
was meant. Of course, this is not Off
cial, but the angles leading up to the
refereeship of the present fight indi-
cate that Welsh will be the man.

A GENEROUS GIFT.

Mr.. Otto Wix, who has so success,
fully interpreted the charm and glory
of some of our finest scenery, on the
eve of his departure to his home in
Germany did very graceful and gen
erous thing in donating two of his
fine pictures to Mr.. Lydgate for the
benefit of the Lihue Library in token
of his appreciation of the kindness of
the community to him during his stay
here.
These pictures, which are charming
views of the Waimea valley, will be
exhibited at the coming art exhibition
and there sold, probably at auction,
for the benefit of the Library

There was time not so long ago,
when it was considered mark of Ii
terary discrimination to be imper-
sonal.
Shakespeare was referred to as an
example for us to follow under all cir
cumstances, and those who were not
Shakespeare still wrote unfavored
stupidities, and gave us second and
third-rate philosophers in prose and
verse.
At length it began to dawn upon
the comprehension of the few that no.
thing written by man could be i'm
personal, if the composition was his
own; that all attempts to hide the ego,
in prose at least were an evidence OF
affectation and inanity.
Then gradually it was acknowledged
that the more personal a writing was;
the more it betrayed the real life and
thought of the writer, the deeper its
interest must be for readers, and the
better it would accomplish what it
was written for.
Personality came to be regarded in
writing what seasoning is to food;
without it all became insipid and I'M
assimilable.
What more entertaining and protita-
BILE reading than Hazlitt's table talk?
How could we dispense with Swift
and Lamb and the intimate biograph-
les?
At a later day, Stevenson with 9TH
ers has hidden nothing from us. And
we are finding out that Shakespeare
was as human at his desk as when
he closed a good bargain or had diff
ferences with Ann.
His sonnets and much that is in his
plays are outpourings; the privilege
which all writers have of revealing
themselves by proxy. So the best
poets with a trustful confidence have
told us all their secrets, whispered
their loves and hates, and, dying, have
breathed a farewell hope.

Mark Twain's unparalleled produc-
lions are all about himself. And the
reason they are so full of life and
humor and truth is because they were
not learned from a book but taken out
of first hand experiences.
An Englishman said to me of DR..
Holmes writings:
ooh, l don't care much for them,
they are so full of DR.. Holmes"
AS if these instructive, sparkling and
intensely human writings of his did
not owe their virtue, their popularity,
and their literary permanence to the
fact that DR.. Oliver Wendell Holmes
is at the back of every word of them!

1t is not at all necessary to write
in order to write, and unless a man
has something to say that is keenly
and newly original with him, he is
wise to keep still.
Making good English out of other
mems thoughts is nothing but hack
work, and while useful in its place
textbooks and reference-booRs), it is
only reproduction, after all.
And to the degree that a man is
creative, original, unconventional and
Virile, he is personal and versatile.
You can't resist him, no matter if
you hate him.
The critics cannot demolish him, no
power on earth can keep him from
expressing himself except the silence
of death.
Then his words will live after him
if not in ponderous volumes, in the
membranes of living men.
Nor can even established authorities
on language and literature be the
judges as to the possibilities of any
given personal force.

TRIBUTE TO PORTUGUESE.

One of the cases that came up FOR
trial at the term of court just ended
stands out as the only case against a
Portuguese on Kauai resting on a
charge alleging loss of life. 1t speaks
eloquently for the peaceful character
of the race, that such is the case, and
the fact that jury of twelve good
men found the accused one innocent
only emphasizes the desirability of
encouraging men of their nationality to
settle among us, and those who already
are here to remain.-Garden Island.

CHICAGO, November 15.-"Debru-

ever in this season of 1908, now near
ing a close.
The total to date in gridiron war
fare between colleges, high schools and
athletic clubs is 10 dead and 200 in

The adoption of more open scheme
of play has failed for the third season
to realize the hope of the supporters of
the game that a cleaner record could
be shown.
Fatalities have been reduced to no
appreciable extent, and more players
have been injured thus far than were

appalling record prompted coaches and
college heads to revise the rules. This

in our language were derided, con-
demned and almost abused by better
known authors, but the torch was not
eXtinguished.
Now of course a writer does not
meet with the same obstacles if he
has something to say, and the least
originality finds a ready market.
For the longer the world lasts the
rarer will be the elements of, primitive
personal force and originality; the
deeper will they be covered up by sys-
tematic education and the social and
political influences of the age.
1t is true, however, that those who
are simple and natural in their writ
ing, (who are sincerely confidential
and sympathetic; who relate to you
with a cheerful spirit and a sense OF
humor all their experiences as indivi-
duals) are the writer's who please us
and who do us good.
In this age of piledup knowledge it
seems to me just as necessary for a
man to have a mind of his own as
it is for him to own his own body.
The world has emancipated physical
, slavery, and freed the bodies of men
from bondage to masters, but thous-
ands today are slaves to religious dog
mas, fashion, social conventions, and
what-nOt, until it is about as difficult
to discover the nature of their per-
sonalities as it was for Diogenes to
find an honest man.

CERTIFIED MILK.
Not an Easy Matter to Produce HIqh
Grade Product.


Prof c. B. Lane of the dairy di-
vision Of the United States depart
ment OF agriculture. says:
The production OF certified milk. or
even market milk prcfiably and in a
pure form is no amateurs work. II
canvas were TO be made to deter
mine how many men were capable
of producing milk that would pass
reasonable requirements from a sani-
tary and chemical standpoint I don't
know just how many would pass. but
am satisfied that the percentage
would be very. very small. A man
capable of producing milk that would
meet the requirements OF our vari-
GUS milk commissions is an unusual
dairyman and would make a success
IN almost any profession. He must
be a thoroughly capable man and
should command a good salary His
work is often too little appreci-
ated, particularly by the consumer.
who should rejoice in the fact that his
milk is delivered to his door guaran-
teed TO be pure. clean and wholesome
and TO be produced from healthy COWS
without their even seeing the dairy
herd or the way the product is
handled. Even If this were possible
one customer in a hundred would not
know whether it was handled prop
erly or not
To be successful the producer OF
high-class milk must know how 10
breed animals and develop their ca
Dacity for DrOductfou Of r,irl- o,d
keep In mind their heaIthfulness. He
must be acquainted with all dairy
feeds in the market and must not only
know how 10 feed economically. but he
must also use feeds that will not pro-
duce abnormal flavor in the milk. He
must become acquainted with the char
acteristcs Of his individual animals
and determine how much feed they
can utilize proftably. He must be able
TO detect any unusual disturbances or
change in the condition OF animals
which may affect the quality or flow
OF the milk. He must understand the
effect OF disease or any Inflammation
or unusual condition OF the COW. upon
the milk-for example. / will relate an
instance that came TO my notice 4
man was producing a high-class milk
when suddenly the number Of bacteria
In the mixed milk OF the herd jumped
from a few hundred 10 several thou
sand TO the &C. on looking for the
cause, the milk OF each cow was ex.
amined and # was found that one
COW had a slight attack of garget and
this contributed the bacteria.
