HONOLULU YACHT
CLUB MEETING

There will be meeting of the Ho-
nolulu yacht club at the Lyle residence,
corner of Beretania avenue and Rich
ards street, this evening at eight
0 clock. All interested in the recently
revived sport of small boat sailing are
invited to attend.
The object of the meeting is to ar
range for a series of races, in which
wrens and boats of the Pearl class as
well as other small boats can take part,
also to see about getting prizes for
the races and to elect a regular regatta
committee who viii make it their bust
ness to see that the races are started
and judged.
Among other points that will be
brought up will be that of having in
sigma for the different boats. For
very small cost d sign, representing
some familiar object, may be painted
and sewed on the sail This enables
the spectators on shore to distinguish
the craft during a race and tell which
enc is ahead.
In Sydney harbor, where small boat
sailing nOurlSneS TO surprising eX-
tent, all the little craft have signs on
their sails. Crescents, globes, circles,
crosses and other insignia are used and
everybody who watches race can tell
just where his particular favorite is.
Captain Nicely hopes to have his
wren in the water very shortly. He
has decided to call her the ''Jennie
Wren. Commodore Wilder has not
yet decided on name for his boat, he
is cudgeling his brain for something
good, however, and will certainly add
a good one to the present list of Gal
Looping Mary, Dancing Sally, Roaring
Gimlet, Jennie Wren and Ready Cork
screw, which is quite dictionary of
fair ladies. Somebody ought to name
boat the Jumping Jehosophat or the
Wanoping Windowblind.

Where the Money Goes.

We are told that we dig our graves
with our teeth, and many a poor Iuan
fnds that the butcher and the grocer
get the biggest part Of the family in
come. Where one person is sorry be-
cause of having voluntarily eaten too
little, there are thousands who every
dag suffer for having eaten too much
merely TO satisfy the carvings OF a
deranged stomach that was only ask
ing for rest. Plain wholesome foods
may not tickle the palate as do
the fancy high-priced dishes, but
the plain food makes better blood,
brains and mucles, and leaves a mar
gin for the cultivation of the mental
and spiritual. II too little has been
taken at one meal, il is easier to sat-
isfy the appetite than, having eaten
too much, TO do away with the sIugg-
ish feeling which always follows
over-indulgence. The meal should
cease before the appetite is entirely
satisfied, because little time should
elapse before the outlying organs
ard tissues can feel the effects of the
food already taken.

THOSE PILES OF DIRT.

Sometime ago by order or permission
of the town authorities, several car
loads of dirt were dumped along the
side of the car line on Tazewell
Avenue. During the winter this dirt
made that already bad street almost
unpassable at times for vehicles.
Now that the piles of dirt are drying
out the dust is becoming almost I'M
beareable. The wind takes up great
clouds of dust from the top of these
dry piles of dirt, and hurls il every
where. This unsightly, slovenIy,
dirty condition of that throughfair
ought to be looked after. Its dis
graceful to the town. The long suffer-
ing people of that section of the town
should not be longer imposed upon.
If this dirt cannot be utilized i'm fix
ing up the streeT it should be
moved away. Its against the law to
dump, rock, ashes IL ETC., in the street
and allies of this town anyway.

Everybody is likly to have kidney
and bladder trouble. In fact everybody
has some trouble of this kind. That is
the reason why you SO often have pains
in the back and groin, scalding sensa-
ton, urinary disorders, etc:-that's
your kidney. The best thing to do is to
get some OF DeWitt's Kindney aud Blad-
der Pills right away. Take them for a
few days or a week or SO and you
will feel all right, In this way, too, you
will ward OFF dangerous and possibly
serious ailment- They are perfectly
harmless, and are not only antiseptis
but allay pain quickly by their healing
properties. Send your name to E. C.

er, candidate for the nomination
for governor? This is inevitable,
whether Mr.. Tucker was invited a
year ago or month ago, and this is
the gist of our criticism. That the
invitation was given MI. Tucker
with no thought of promoting his
candidacy, is true, as the President
declares. She has done the best she
could, and her untiring efforts to
promote the efficiency of the organi-
cation are deserving OF all praise, and
we trust the occasion will be a great
success, as il no doubt will be.

PUT A STOP TO 1T.

The action Of the Montgomery coun
ty committee in declining TO sanction
a joint discussion between Judge
Mann and Mr.. Tucker was exactly
right, and ought 10 be initiated all
over the state. The truth about il is
that this campaign is doing the par
ty little good. Democrats are getting
too much "het up" over their respec-
tive candidates in certain instances.
We don't propose to do or say any
thing that will be embarrassing i'm
case we have to support 1.-The other

the other fellow we want TO be able
TO do it enthusiastialIy and heartily,
but will be scarcely able 10 do so if
we get into too much of sweat
for our favorite. Besides, the Repub-
licans will be aided in their fight by
Democratic mudslinging. Put a stop
to all of it, and do it quick.

SLANDERING PROMINENT
MEN.

Nothing Is more to be deprecated
than the habit or custom of speaking
evil, though the newspapers or
otherwise, of prominent men who
may be candidates for office. 1t mat
tiers not that man may be worthy
and consistent member of the church,
just as soon as he becomes a csndi-

brought into review, and if possible,
(and it is always possible,) twis-

the subject is made out as black and
mean as the devil would have him
be. Such terms as "hypocIite, 4"
thief, political bum, 'and others
worse still, are applied To him. This
is all wrong, and its influence on the
younger people is vicious. Young peo-
pie have none too much respect for
the church and church members
these days anyway, and when they
read in the newspapers that so-and-
so is scoundrel, hypocrite and I'M
worthy OF comm ence,' if the SLAM
dered or condeniened man is a church
member they will conclude prehaps
that all men an insincere, and of
course, the church to which they be-
long will suffer Iikwise. or course,
older people know that such charges
are made for purely political purpoes
but the younger men do not, perhaps,
and evil results therefrom. These re-
marks are suggested by conversa-
ton heard few days ago. Two men
Of prominence, each n member of n
prominent denomination in the
state, and prominent in their church
es at home, actively engaged i'm
J church and denominational work,
were being discussed, and both of
them were denounced as insincere,
untrustworthy and hypocrites, and
the same or similar things are often
seen in newspapers, slandering not
only the idividuals, but the great
churches and denominations 10 which
they belong. The cause OF Christian-
ity and even morality suffers by
these attacks upon Christian men. If
man is known TO he immoral and
Enthusiastically il may not be arniss
10 brand him As such, bnt when n
man has the confidence and respect
OF his church and community il is
the worst form OF immortality and
meanness for strangers 10 denounce
him and try to blacken his character
and injure him in the opinions of the
public. If one-half that has beer
said OF certain prominent candinate.
| Is true, the churches, To which they
respectively belons, and in whost
great UNCONVENTIONAL work they hav,
been prominently engaged for years
should exclude them from mem
bership, but so long as they, anC
others prominent in public
life whose names could bt
mentioned retain the growing and
increasing confidence and merited re-
spect of their home people who know
them best, the tongue of the slander
er, and the pen, too, should be silent.
No political victory can ever justify
the destruction of Christian character
