SLEPT THROUGH
 BRYAN BANQUET
Private Secretary Stewart Tells Why Senator Jeff Davis Failed to Take Part in Democratic
 Love Feast.
Chicago Daily News.l

United States Senator Jefferson Davis awoke in his room at the Auditorium hotel this morning to the realization that the Jack son day banquet of the Jefferson Club, at which he was to have been a guest, but wasn't, was all over. Quite over, even the shout ing. At the same moment he became conscious also of an unde- liyered speech, and this in the case of Southern orator is re- puted to be particularly un- pleasant sensation.
 During all the time that the Cook County Democracy anl its guests, including William J. Bry- an as the guest of honor, were celebrating the memory of "Old Hickory" and new found har- mony in the party ranks, MT. Davis was sleeping few floors below tue hotel banquet hall. Meanwhile ,explanations were being made, some of which were published this morning.
 Mir. Davis was to have spoken on "Dangers That Threaten the Republic" But when the Sena- tor awoke, instead of at that moment stinging the skins of the wicked trusts, the address re- mained bottled up in the miud of it's author, with no guaranty that it wouldn't ferment. As no opportunity for its escape offered itself during the senator's stay in Chicago and he prepared to leave late in the afternoon for Wash lngton, D. C., fiery developments in senate oratory, equaling if not exceeding the first Davis effort, in that body, are expected at an early date.
 The Arkansas statement came down to breakfast at $40 a, m. His figure, which is becoming portly, was clad in light brown cut-away suit and he carried a massive gold-headed cane. He rode down in the eley ator with his private secretary, H. w. Stewart, who later shouldered the entire blame for the contre- temps of the evening before.
 Mr. Davis made for a place where the attendants are garbed in white asd on the way was greeted by reporter for the Daily News.
 It was suggested to Mir. Davis that there were various exDlana- tions given tor his failure to lend his presence as a further har- mouizing element in the Jackson banquet. The senator was some what irate.
 "They're all tomfoolery," he said. My train was late. Now don't bother me. l can't bel interviewed"
 Private Secretary Stewart made himself the scapegoat. When seen by himself he gave this version of the story of the "ya- cant seat at the speakers table,"
 "The senator was up all night | the night before, while engaged | in important legal business at St. 1 Louis" he said. After reaching the hotel here he naturally feltl the need of little sleep before appearing at the banquet. He lay down, giving me instructions to wake him.
 Il had lost the same amount of | sleep myself and dozed off uu- wlttiugly while studying some Washington timetables. As a result the senator was not awak- ened on time" |

any opposition, and he should be the only candidate before the primaries. He has every qualification for the attorney generalship, and Arkansas can do herself proud by making his choice unanimous in the county primaries; in fact there should be no opposition to his nomination.

HOW FLOWERS HIDE HONEY.
Pits Where Sweets Are Stored in Lily
Concealed Nectar of Monkshood.

Before "the bee sucks as Ariel put
II, he must find the wonderful places
where the flowers hide away their
honey, to be found like the priests
hiding holes In ancient mansions, by
the right sort OF visitor, and to keep
away all intruders.
In the recesses of the crown impe-
rial lily at the centre can be seen six
large honey pits, one on every floral
leaf, and each is brimming over with
a big drop. Shake the flower and it
"weeps" as the big drops fall from
ii, soon to be replaced by other tears
in the rapidly secreting flower. The
simple folk call the flower Jobs
tears"
The snowdrop Is literally flowing
with honey, for in swollen veins
travorsing its fragile whiteness are
rivers OF nectar The petals of the
columbine are ipgeniously and elabo-
rately designed with a view to pro-
viding good places of hiding for the
honey. Each is circular, hollow,
Is secretcd in a round knob at what
would be the mouthpiece end of the
horn, and the five are arranged in a
ring side by side with the honey
knobs adoft Though the honey store
is obvious from without, yet the in.
sects who would sip it must creep in.
TO the flower and penetrate with a
long nose up the curving horn to the
knob.
Sometimes the petals are all Joined
together into a tube and the sweet
nectar simply exudes from the inner
side of the wall and collects at the
bottom. This is the case in the dead
nettle, the tube of which forms so
toothsome a morsel that some chill
dren call Il "suckies." The honey
suckle is similarly planned. and It's
sweetness is so striking as to have
furnished its name.
The monkshood has quaint necta-
ries. If the hood be drawn back
there suddenly spring into sight two
objects on long stalks which are
sometimes like a French horn, some
times like a cowl, or, looked at side
ways, not unlike a pair of doves
Their presence within the hood has
provided the nicknames adam and
Eve" and "Noah's Ark" Thus the
honey bags are carefully tucked away
and rotected.-Chicago Tribune.

Governor Frear and the party with
him, including Mr. Newell, were in Hilo
yesterday, if the plans of their timer
airy were carried out
According to letter received yester-
day by Secretary Mott-Smith, which
came by the steamship Maui, it was
expected that the party would spend
a considerable part of Thursday, per,
haps all day, at the volcano, and would
be in Hilo yesterday.
The Governor writes that landing at
Kailua from the Maui week ago, the
party visited Edward s vanilla planta-
ton and DIR. Jared Smith s tobacco
plantation and otherwise saw as much
of the Kona country as they were able
to and drove to Napoopoo where they
took the steamer again. They visited
Captain Cooke s monument.
After landing in Kau they made Ma
lehu their headquarters and from there
made extensive excursions throughout
that region, as rule starting out
horseback at half past six in the morn
ing and being in the saddle all day
until nearly seven clock in the even
ing. In this connection the Governor
writes, as pleasantly, that Land Com
missioner Pratt had fallen off his mule
only twice and Superintendent of Pub
lie Works Marston Campbell only once.
There are number of parcels of

public lands in this region in regard to
which settlement associations and in
dividuals have been writing to the land
department for a number of months,
making applications to have them open
ed for settlement Of late the land
department has been replying that the
Governor would visit the region pres
emily and would take the matter up
with the individuals on the ground. It
is supposed that the Governor has been
spending some of the time in this mat
ter. At Waiohinu Governor Frear made
an address on land matters one even
ing.
From Nalehu, the party went by au-
tomobile to see the lava flows of 1868,
1887 and 1907.
From Nalehu it was the intention of
the party to go to Pahala and from
there across by way of the volcano
to Hilo. Next week will be spent in
the Hilo, Hamakua and Kohala districts
and short visit will be made to Mo-
lokai. the party returning to Honolulu
October 90.
Chief Clerk Joshua Tucker of the
Land Office received a letter from Land
Commissioner Pratt written at the Vol
canO House. The party intended to
look somewhat over Puma, but would
pay more attention to the Olaa home
steads and that region. All the party
were in good health and spirits not
withstanding the strenuous character of
their work. Mr.. Newell expressed him
self as intensely interested in what he
was seeing.

Laborula Program.

Waialua stock, which was recently as
high as $91 a share, has now dropped
to $50. The reason is believed to be
that it will not be possible to keep up
the present rate of dividends. The
rate, it is said, may be reduced after
the first of the year.
