publish the laws in newspapers Of the
Territory outside of Honolulu at his
discretion, and Senate bill to make
the law relating to acknowledgment
of instruments uniform with laws on
the subject IN various states.

BILE the laws publication bill was taken
up on second reading.
Coelho said the bill would not better
conditions. The object was to prevent
the Honolulu papers from getting all
the government printing. There was
a newspaper in Maui but very few peo-
pie read it. Maui people had to take
the Honolulu papers to get their own
islands news. The Maui paper was
not generally taken because it was
not worth reading. This bill was
merely to relieve the Secretary of trou-
bile he was having with the Honolulu
papers. He moved that the bill be
laid on the table.

he was in favor of the bill, but If it
was to MAKE the Secretary publish
the laws in the other island papers he
was against it. Papers on the other
islands published. the laws on their
own account anyway.
Knudsen said there was nothing in
the bill to prevent the publication OF
the laws in Honolulu. The bill APP
peared to be for the purpose of pre-
venting the newspapers of Honolulu
from holding up the Secretary.
By nine to four on a rising vote
the bill was laid on the table.

uniform law with that of various
states relating to Acknowledgements OF

There was a good deal of discussion
first, however, over seeming defects in
the framing of the measure.
The House notified the Senate of its
adoption of the conference report on
the Honolulu enabling bill.

The Right Spirit.

EDWIN CHM of Boston has set aside
IL $1.O0O.OO0 for the promotion of uni

Mr.. CHM, at a dinner in Boston, said
recently:
Universal peace will come, thanks to
the scientific spirit. The scientific spirit
is discontented. 1t attacks imperfection
wherever imperfection exists. It is an
Improvement on the old hopeless spirit Of
resignation.

when one is seventy, and closes ones
eyes, it is wonderful how the whole world
grows youthful. And when 1 had almost
dozed, that little tender rustling brought
me back so happily that 1 could hardly
tel which was memory of that other lit
tie head upon my arm, and which was
not. Midnight was the important mo-
ment when the baby's food must be
warmed. and it was 1 who did this. for
Peleas' old familiar helplessness in this
little presence delighted me beyond meas
ure. And when she grew impatient and
cried a little, Peleas valiantly lighted
matches before her and she fell silent
and even smiled and slept again. At S
o'clock this had to be repeated, and
re. ord it as meru matter of history that
in the meantime had not slept for a mo-
ment. For there had come thronging
back such company of memories, such a
very flight Of the angels Of the old delight
Of our wonderful year when there was
Cedric, that the world had no room for
s,eep at all. Sleep! 1 do not suppose that
any one would chde me for being wakeful
at a ball? And nothing in the world
could have been so delightful to me as
we're those hours when that little head lay
upon my arm.
Some time after daylight she awoke.
