Hicks on May Weather.

Hicks prophecy for April was car
ried out almost exactly. In view Of
this fact, the forecast for May will be
read with interest. Mr.. Hicks says
in part:
Threatening storm conditions will
appear in western sections by the 1st.
Heavy downpours Of rain and hail
will visit many parts Of the country
from the End to the 9th. Change to
much cooler with frosts over many
sections will be natural between the
Srd and 9th to the northward.
On the 7th, 9Th and 9th look for
decidedly warmer with southerly
winds, cloudiness and rain. At this
and at all other periods during much
OF this month, the astronomic causes
are sufficient to excite careful watch
fulness on the approach Of storm
clouds, Change to much cooler with
probable frosts in many sections.
central and northward, will come pro.
greSsively from the 9Th TO the 18th.
A series Of daily rain, wind and
thunder storms, with probable lorna
does, will be quite natural from the
18th to the 10th. Excessive rains and
floods In many western sections may
be looked for. Change to cooler will
come about the 10th to the 10th.
From the 10th to 26rd another storm
period occurs, starting with rain and
warmer and changing to much colder
on the 2Srd.
From the 2Srd to 9th will come
storms sweeping across the country
from west to east. As these storm
conditions move eastward they will
grow In extent and violence and on
the 26th to 9Th they may reasonably
be expected to assume very threaten
ing II not tornAdis forms.
From the 2sth to S1St continued
high temperature with threatening
weather will be most natural.
1t must be remembered that these
forecasts cover the entire United
States and rain may not fall In Kan
sas on the exact dates mentioned.
But on the whole the predictions are
quite reliable as proven BY past per-
IOrmances, and we may reasonably
expect to get the usual May weather
N normal years.

IDEAL SUPERINTENDENT.
Subject of Interesting Talk Of J.
H, EngIe at Lawrence.

J. H. Engle Of Abilene addressed a
body Of Sunday school workers last
evening at the Presbyterian church
upon the subject 1.-THE Ideal Superin-
tendent." The attendance was not
large, but was enthusiastic In ap-
proval Of the suggestions made.
In the opening Of q Sunday school
Mr.. Engle advocates having number
Of short prayers and calling upon the
various classes to take some part In
the opening. He believes in going
after money hard enough to be sure
Of sufficient equipment for good work.
One point to be emphasized is that
the Sunday school is simply the
church studying the Bible. In In
creasing the attendance Of the school
don't work so hard for new members
as you do to keep those already en-
rolled coming. In learning new
songs the best Roadway can be made
in practicing them at the homes Of
the scholars and thus having thcm
able to sing them at school. Last Of
all the social side needs attention.
Take the scholars fishing, picnicing
or nutting, etc., at the right time

DROVE OK TEAM TO
DICKINSON COUNTY

When II comes to calling up old

about as far as any Of the oldest set
tiers, says the Kansas City Drovers'
Telegram. He was born in Platte
county, Mo-, and went to Dickinson
county behind an OK team iorty-nine
years ago. That has been his home
ever since. Buffalo and deer we're
to be found all over that country
when we went there" said Mr.. De-
yane. 1--WE killed buffalo right on
the land now occupied by Abilene the
county seat. Neighbors were good
ways apart in those days, and the
whole country was wide open. At
the time we went there there was not
foot Of railroad track within 800
miles or more, and 1t was a good
many years before a road was built
up the Kaw river valley. For many
years we had to do things at great
disadvantage. Settlers were very
poor, and had to work somewhat in
the dark, as they had no way Of ex-
perimenting except at their own ex-
pense. They did not understand the
land, and wasted good deal Of time
getting down to farming. But the
Kay valley farmers now are up-to-
date and very prosperous

MISS ELLEN YAWTs VOICE
Has Perfect Control Over Her Hear.
ersz Even Under Great Excite
ment-An Experience.

Miss Ellen Beach Yaw, the wonder
full soprano who has delighted the
people of this and other countries for
years. is to visit Palestine and sing at
the Temple Theatre Tuesday evening.
The writer has heard Miss Yaw sing,
and can assure all who purpose hear
ing her that treat is in store. She
has voice of wonderful sweetness,
and her selections are such that can
be appreciated by all lovers of song.
The first time we heard Miss 1aw
sing was some years ago in the city
of Waco. where she filled an engage
ment at the famous Cotton Palace OF
that city. One evening during the
progress of her concert, and while
the temporary auditorium was packed
with people, just after a member OF
her company had rendered a violin
number. some one in the rear of the
building yelled fire The audience,
remembering the flimsy material and
decorations in cotton in the audito-
rum, was on its feet instantly, and a
panic was imminent. At this critical
second Miss Yaw stepped to the edge
of the stage and began in her sweet
voice to trill a part of familiar
song. and almost as suddenly as it
had swayed to its feet the audience
paused for moment to listen-and
in this moments pause the manager
of Miss Yaw's company announced
that there was no fire-that it was
false alarm, and there was no occa-
sion for alarm. The relief TO the hun
dreds of people was so evident that
it found ready expression in great
ovation to the sweet singer, vino by
her quick wit and sweet voice had
prevented panic. 1t was not press
agents trick, but was a real incident,
that for a moment had every aspect OF
a serious calamity Miss Yaw will
charm you with her voice.

NO PRACTICAL USE.

II is source of great satisfaction
to hear that Government by Commits
sion is purely an academic question.
The Bulleti n has felt that the
matter was originally brought up
merely for purposes of discussion
among very small minority of our
population that is not and never has
been in favor of the American form
of government, although taking most
kindly to all the promise of stability
the presence of the Flag may afford.
Spokesman of this minority are reac-
tionaries in every sense of the word.
They fought popular government
when the Territory was established
and have been opposing 1t at every
step since.
Happily, their campaign has not
been and cannot be successful. be-
cause 1t appeals neither to the good
sense of the American people nor has
II the force of National necessity.
Consequently, of course, Govern
ment by Commission becomes a pure
ly academic question. Hawaii has
no practical use for IL.

at low rate, and make It pay, than
that great passenger ships should he
added to the local fleet without the
assurance of people to warrant the
continuance in the service.
Under the scheme which the Mat
son people evidently have in mind
the passenger service will be devel-
oped. This line started with the En-
terprise, later added the Hilonian
and the Lurline each of which are
recognized freighters but with very
comfortable, though limited, passen-
ger accommodation. Now comes a
larger steamship. primarily built to
carry freight but with larger and
better passenger department than
any of those now in the service.
The announcement is good news
to the people of the Territory. 1t
shows progressive spirit on the part
of the transportation company and n
particular regard for the facilities
our people have sought for many
years.

THE NEW MATSON STEAMER.

The new passenger steamer to be
built for the local service of the Mat
son Navigation Company appears to
be development of the plan which
the Blu letin has insistently es-
poused-that carriers of freight
should also be carriers of passengers.
When every steamship that comes
into this port for the freights to and
from the mainland is equipped for
passengers, a long advance step will
be taken in the solution of the trans
portation problems of the Islands. 1t
is not necessary that every steamship
offered to the people of Hawaii
should be palatial liner, Far bet
ter is 1t for this Territory that all
the steamers of large freight-carry-
ing capacity should carry passengers
