1t is not generally remembered that
the worldwide reputation Of Audubon
as naturalist. incidentally, is due to
nently as Il Missouri grocery merchant
and dealer in the best brands of Ken
lucky whisky.
In 1910 he and Ferdinand ROZier, Of
Ste. Genevieve, loaded a keelboat at
Louisville with 80 barrels of whisky
and groceries, and started down the
Ohio and Mississippi to Ste. Genevieve
to open grocery store. The trip was
made during the winter. and the
streams were 50 full OF ice that the
boat was drawn up against the bank
and winter quarters were established
just below Cape Girardeau.
When Ste. Genevieve was reached
after the opening of navigation, the
firm of Audubon & ROzier'' opened its
store and did a prosperous business.
But the business was done by RoZier,
for Audubon preferred the woods to
the counter, and devoted more of his
time to sketching and Stufiing birds
than he did to marketing the 30 bar
rels of good Kentucky bourbon, or any
other groceries.
This led to a dissolution of the part

The entire time of the Senate was
occupied Thursday with the considera-
ton of the agricultural appropriation
bill Many items providing for va
riouS Investigations and matters relat-
ing TO new legislation were stricken
from the bill on points of order. The
forestry service was again severely
criticised by Senator Carter and Hey

without party distinction the House of
Representatives sustained the commit

poor and rich alike, and have in that

As it is now, patients paying less than
S. 80 day cannot be treated by their

that we do not take our poorer pa

of them as of our rich patients. We
take the poor ones to the Palama hos

with them with the Queen IS hospital,
we do not take our rich ones there

en- for the University Club where a
fine lunch was in waiting.
During the little feast there wag
much speaking of friendly information
al character, the cue to which was set
by Captain Rees in his opening re.
marks as toastmaster. Captain Rees
introduced Admiral Iichi. who spoke
in very good English of the desire of
his cOuntrymen to perpetuate the
friendship begun by the visit of Com
modore Perry. The guests, who had
risen to drink the Admiral IS health,
joined in the banzais that followed.
Governor Frear to whose health the
brimming beakers had been lifted, fol.
lowed in speech in which he spoke
OF the value to us in Hawaii of the
japanese population and of the real
desire of America to keep on good
terms with our Oriental neighbor. For
mer Governor Cleghorn, who is an old
time friend of the Japanese and has
the right to wear many imperial decora-
tons, was introduced and received with
I honors. His address in which he re-
called the first visit of the Japanese
ENJOYS in 1857 was full of reminis-
cent interest and was keenly enjoyed.
Governor Carter, in response to toast,
made a speech of characteristic SAVIOR,
in the course of which was some keen
analysis of japanese traits. as shown
on the plantations. Walter G. Smith
followed in little talk which he end
ed by proposing the health of the EN-
peror, which was drunk standing. Con-
sui Uyeno, at the Admiral Is request,
spoke once more for him and proposed,
in his name, toast to the President
of the United States. During the feast
there had been toasts to both countries
and both navies. Cheers in the Anglo.
Saxon way and in the Japanese style
emphasized points of interest in the
program. !,
