Discomfort IS
THEME Of TALK
Dr.. Green Delivers Stirring
Arrangement of Old
Philosophy.

Discomfort, not the discomfort that
causes folk to sit and weep over the
fact that they can not soar to realms
above, but the discomfort that prompts
endeavor, that spurs the soul onward
to achievements, was the topic of "a
stirring appeal by Dr. Thomas E. Green
at the Opera House last night. 1t was
a sermon; sermon of real life, that
the speaker delivered.
The fire of the evangelist, the zeal
of the monastic priest, and the deep
erudition of the scientist were all roll
ed into one in the succession of moral
lessons which DR.. Green preached to his
hearers.
DR.. Green said, in part:
You have been taught, since first
you began your individual training, that
contentment is one of the greatest vir-
tues that mankind can possess. It is
a slap IN the face of conventionality,
OF accepted philosophy, when l preach
to you the doctrine of discomfort as the
means of accomplishing things
1t was not so long ago that man
had to be eontented whether he would
or no. Mans sphere was narrow, he,
OF necessity, had to be satisfied with
his surroundings.
. To the early man it was impossible
to imagine anything that did not cor
respond to something that he was ac-
quainted with. The mountain had its
giants, giants whose rough games eaus-
ed the thunder which disturbed his
slumbers. Even the gods of the early
man were simply magnifed creatu. es,
possessing all of his particular virtues
and his shortcomings. The god of the
early man was magnifed human.
Every phenomenon was the work of
some god, built in human image
An early man was possessed of
fever. To him it was but the work of
scores OF devils, dashing through his
body and taking delight in pricking
and prodding him with their fiery darts.
Man could do nothing but bow in con-
tentment to his fate and make the best
of it.

MIST To BOOST
FLORAL PARADE
Letters for European Mailing
Go on Tenyo Maru
Today.

When the Tenyo Maru sails for the
mainland today, she will carry 500 ad-
dressed envelopes and letters to Fl. NJ
Mist at Dresden. To Mr.. Mist has been
delegated the task of mailing the Floral
Parade postcards over Europe, and all
of his supplies, minus postcards and
stamps, go by the Tenyo.
Secretary Wood Of the Promotion
Committee has prepared list of 500
names, covering the chief cities of Eu-
rope, and this list will be sent to Mist
for his guidance in sending out the
reading matter.
Each letter gives such information
as prospective visitors to Hawaii are
likely to require, such as travel faeil-
tiles, hotel rates and the like. In each
envelope will be enclosed one of the
special postcards, ornamented with a
reproduction of the 1910 Floral Parade
poster. The envelope will then be seal
ed with an artistic little "sticker,
also displaying the Floral Parade post
er in reduced form.
J. Walter Scott, special representa-
tive of the Promotion Committee at San
Francisco, will have charge of the dis
tribution of posters and literature in
the United States, in Canada and in
Mexico To him Mist will send the
larger part of both posters and cards,
and, after taking such as he may re-
quire, he will forward the remainder
to the Promotion Committee here.
Even far away Cape Town has not
been forgotten in making up the mail
ing list, and no hamlet of any import
ance on the face Of the civilized globe
will be overlooked when posters and
literature are sent out.
twenty-five thousand "stickeFs, -
each a reduced facsimile of the 1910
Floral Parade poster will be distribut-
ed for the purpose of advertising next
years carnival. A large portion OF
these will be passed out to Honolulu
folk, with the request that they use
them to seal their letters.
Ten thousand postcards, each orna-
mented with reduced facsimile OF
the poster, win also be passed out, and
every effort will be made to insure
their wide dissemination. Orders for
both the cards and the stickeTs were
placed when the posters were ordered.

POSTER IS ORDERED
FOR PINEAPPLE Day

Secretary H. P. Wood, of the Pro-
motion Committee, is working out the
particulars for his proposed "Pineap-
pie Day" fete. He has requested III.
NJ. Mist, the designer of the Floral
Parade poster, to prepare tentative
design for a poster to advertise the oc-
casion.
Should the plan go through, Wood
hopes to have the feast set for the
middle of August. At that time of
the year he believes that it would be
possible to secure a large attendance
from the mainland, particularly OF
school teachers.
The suggestion is made that mill
tary tournament might be held at Wa
hiawa, the troops at Schofeld Bar
racks being asked to participate. Field
sports, swimming RACES, and the like,
would also be included in the program.
But the great feature of the oeca-
sion would be the pineapples. The
luscious fruit would be in evidence on
every hand. and the fortunate visitors
from the mainland would have an OPP
portunity to enjoy themselves to their
fill on the juicy product of Wahiawa s
planta tions.

Some time Friday night burglar
forced his way into the postoffice at
Wahiawa, helped himself to the con-
tents of the cash drawer, and then
made good his escape, leaving no trace
behind him.
The robbery was discovered yester-
day morning by Karsten Chott, the
clerk, when he opened the office. Though
a large amount in stamps was at hand,
the midnight marauder had not touch
ed them, evidently fearing that they
might prove discriminating evidence,
were he to fall into the clutches of the
law.
Entrance to the postoffice was secur-
ed through a window, jimmy evil

Chott at once reported the robbery
to Postmaster L. G.. Kellogg, who re-
turned from the mainland only Thurs
day last and had not yet visited Wahi-
ava. Kellogg reported to Inspector
Hare
The police believe that they have a
clue to the identity of the burglar,
suspicious looking character having
been noticed in the vicinity of the
postofice Friday evening.
About a year and a half ago, the
Wahiawa postoffice was robbed, the
thief being shot and killed just as he

LAWLE:SS AIT
Of WA|PAHU
STRIKERS
japanese L-aborer
Held Prisoner Till
Rescued.

That the 1awless element among the
strikers do not intend to obey the order
of the court in regard to intimidation
unless absolutely forced to, was de-
monstrated late yesterday afternoon at
Waipahu when two Japanese. anxious
so return to work, were waylaid by
pickets and threatened. officers of the
law had been advised of the intention
of the two men to return to work, and
were on hand to afford the protection.
Nevertheless one was held prisoner for
a short time.
The imprisoned laborer was soon re-
leased and was escorted to a place of
safety, while six of his jailers were
placed under arrest and brought into
Honolulu, reaching here about clock
this morning.
The Higher Wage Association has es-
tablished a picket system at Waipahu,
and all strikers desiring to visit the
plantation have been required to secure
a pass from the Higher Wage Associa-
tion in this city. One of the men in
volved in yesterdays trouble procured
such a pass, explaining that he thought
that it would help him get by the
picket. He was lost somewhere in the
shuttle.
The other Japanese was taken in tow
and escorted to the Office of the Higher
Wage Association, where endeavors
were made to dissuade him from going
back to work. He was rescued by Man
ager Bull and Officer Scoville.

BURGLAR ROBS
i WELRY
STORE
$500 Watch and Forty
Rings Stolen by
the Thief.

The iewelry store of Sang On Kee
on Maunakea street was broken into
some time Friday night and a large
amount of jewelry was carried away
by the burglar OF burglars. The value
of the property stolen, so far as can
be estimated at present, amounts to
about 5000. Among other things that
are missing are forty gold rings, two
gold watches. several other watches
and large number of miscellaneous ar
ticles, including twenty-five Kalakaua
25-eent pieces and eight Kalakaua So
cent pieces.
One of the watches that was taken
IS the gold watch formerly owned by
Wong Kwai, wealthy Chinese now
deceased This watch, which is valued
at 5000, had been sent to the store by
Wong Kwai' s son to be repaired.
The burglar broke in at the rear
of the place, prying apart the bars of
one of the windows with a Ratchet.
When the store was opened early yes
terday morning, it was found that the
back door was open and that the shop
had been thoroughly ransacked.
Chief of Detectives Leal has pretty
strong suspicion as to the identity of
the burglar, the work bearing the ear
marks of having been done by a Chi
nese who is considered an expert in
that line. No arrests have been made
as vet. however

kLUEGEl JOINS
HILO RAILROAD
Will Be in Charge OF the Ex-
tension to Hakalau,
Hawaii.

Charles II. Kluegel has decided to
sever his connection with the De-
partment of Public Works and accept
position that has been offered to him
as the engineer in charge of the ex-
tension of the Hilo railroad to Haka-
lau.
Mr. Kluegel was in charge of the
Department of Public Works during
the absence Of Superintendent Marston
Campbell on the mainland, and during
his tenure in Office as assistant to Mr..
Campbell has earned an enviable repu-
tation for efficiency.
When the reorganization of the De-
partment of Public Works was made
necessary through the consolidation
with the departments of land and sur
vey it was stated that Mr.. Kluegel
would assume charge of the construc-
ton of the Kula pipe line.
Mr.. Kluegel will take up his new
duties at once, the extension to Ha-
kalau being assured without delay
through the announcement made yes
terday that the Hilo Railway Company
had authorized the sale of 100000
worth of stock for the purpose of
financing the proposed extension. 1t is
stated that the same amount of bonds
will be issued and enough sold to pay
for the ffteen-mile extension.
Mr.. Kluegel was formerly in the en-
nlov of the Oahu Railway & Land
Company and also the Hilo Railway
Company and has had considerable ex-
oerience in the kind of work he will
undertake in his new position.
