Your informant must have mistaken
suspleioas for facts. for he states
/ nret, that radical members of the local
socialist organization conceived the
plan 70 inject sufficient wrong
impressions into the minds cf the i'm.
migrants to make their examination be-
fore the immigration inspector result in
their being refused a landing''; and
second, that since the immigrants land.
ed, the same parties are mailing anarcb.
Istlc literature to them. Now both
or these methods are the verv reverse
OF those used by our socialist organi-
zatlon. As l have been a member Of
the organization from the time of its
formation, and have attended nearly
an OF It's meetings. | can state posi-
lively that no concerted activity among
the immigrants was planned. and I am
convinced that No member of our or
ganlzation had any such plan.
The only reader Of Russian among
our members is Mr. Kotinsky, and his
plans for the solution Of the great in
dustrial and social problems that are
pressing upon mankind with increasing
urgency are along the line of free dis
eusslon, cooperative organization and
the peaceful ballot, all OF which is the
very opposite of anarchistic methods.
he dId not contemplate communicating
with these immigrants at all unless
called upon TO interpret, and has
neither met nor communicated with any
or them. The Russian Jew who at
tempted 10 communicate with the i'm
migrants before they landed has had
no connection with our organization,
and ] am told that he was one of the
strikebreakers, and therefore a helper
OF the planters, during that time of
trouble; but, being ont Of work at
present, he sought TO make connection
with his countrymen IN the hope of
finding a job, perhaps as an interpre-
ter. All socialists, Of course, regret
that the conditions are such in Rus
STA that these immigrants are glad to
leave their homes for a foreign land,
but We are the last ones who would
think of driving them back to Russia.
We hope that in time they nay all be-
come intelligent and pr .-assive eiti-
zens of Hawaii, and so contribute to
the solution of the problem which The
Advertiser has so strongly pressed upon
our attention.

our motives or methods, and therefore
we desire to have all who are investi-
eating these matters come to our Fri
day evening meetings, and join in the
discussions, putting questions freely.

explanation of our position, I am,

TO REPORT. NOT OBSERVE.

Editor Advertiser:-It was somewhat
of surprise to me 10 note, in this
morning ; Advertiser. that the public
We're apprised of my appointment to a
position requiring some very careful
scientific work, before I had myself
been notified of the fact. AS such
work would interfere seriously with
my duties to the College of Hawaii,
such an appointment would certainly
not be accepted without careful con-
sideratiou on my part.
Hallev'S comet. while in the least
unfavorable position for observation,
viii be very sc TO the sun. Before
il passes the sun. observations will
have TO be made soon after sunset;
after that event, the only chance viii
be shortly before sunrise. AS a re-
suit, any one observer, and all observ-
ers who are close together in longi-
tude viii succeed in getting very few
data. To get the best results, then,
observers are to be scattered all
around the world. If there were no
observer between Japan and the Amer
lean coast. the comet would be with
ont a watcher for intervals of six
hours AT 4 tfLlE. anu q EOHiEt, FSpE-
ciallv one that has been coquetting
with the sun for two thousand years,
may make several changes Of costume
in six hours.
From the astronomer : point of view,
then. il becomes very desirable to
have an observer here. As his chances
for observation viii be 50 limited, it
is necessary that he should be very
skiIlful and supplied with the best IN
strumen1s obtainable. Before sending
such man and such Instruments here,
those in charge OF the work wish 10
find out whether the results would
probably justify the outlay required,
and l. among others. have been asked
for a statement Of the conditions here,
especially with regard to the cloud
ness of the evenings and mornings.
I hope You will give publicity TO as
much Of this as may, IN your 5udg-
nlent. be necessary TO give correeS
impression. Very respectfully,

CHAPTER XVI.
The Story Of the Supper.

| me story OF the supper.
Brachard was awakened at 3 o'clock
by Jean. his valet. He hurried through
his toilet, and while Jean was get
ting him rolls and coffee he called
Grace Rutherford on the telephone.
After some difficulty he compelled
her maid TO awaken her. and she an
swered him sleepily. With the same
caution that he had used In calling
Deveaux during the night he told her
where he was.
Il want you 10 come TO me immedi-
ately-as soon as you can Dress" he
said. 1T Is OF the utmost Importance
that you do not delay. My valet, Jean
will be waiting for you and will con-
duct you TO my suite"
There was no doubt In Brachard's
mind that she would come. Her Gu
! riosity alone would suffice to bring her
I after the warning she had given him
last night. and which she now knew
he had needed.
| He next called Govain. having theI
same difficulty In arousing that Wort
thy from heavy slumber. From Col
vain he finally exacted a promise that
he would be at the hotel at a quartet
past IL o'clock. BY that time he ED
pected to have finished with Deveau4.
and started the train that would do
molish the fortune OF his rival.
Brachard had not forgotten his biz
ter hurt in all the preparations for re-
venge From time TO time, the mem
DRY of the night forced itself through
his absorption In his plans. and he
clenched his hands in silent rage. Hut
to his valet he presented perfectly
calm demeanor, and after his light
breakfast he took leisurely survey
OF the magnificent apartments which
were to be the theater OF his drama
! for vengeance
The drawing room was OF splendid
size, with two large windows opening
out TO balcony that overhung the
Place Vendome. Adjoining the draw
ing room, and connected by double
doors, was a bedroom. which also
opened on the private corridor Of the
suite. In the corridor Jean waited.
so that Brachard and his guests might
be free from interruption.
| AT a few minutes after 10 o'clock
Jean knocked at the door and gave
Brachard Graces card. Grace herself
was at the door. and Brachard step
ped past his servant to greet her cor.
daily.
| al, 6CCN iiOi Sopu hoih
mademoiselle," he said formally. I'm
delighted to see you"
Good morning. Monsieur Brach-
ard" Grace said In her most formal
manner. Then as Jean withdrew she
caught him by the hand.
We'll, jacques. what Is 1t? Has
anything happened"
Brachard stepped to the door to
make certain that no one was listen
ing. He did not answer at once, and
Grace went on:
Your telephone message got me out
OF bed | dressed as quickly as could,
and here | am. What has happened,
and what are you doing at this hotel,
for heavens sake?"
Brachard smiled as he took In her
close-ftting street gown and her be-
coming hat, rejecting that she looked
well after a night spent In revelry.
After he had closed the doors leading
into the bedroom, with elaborate eau
ton. he said gayly:

him"
He clenched his fists as he thought,
and looked around the luxuriously FUR
nished suite.
Il will bring Mr., Libertine here. with
his dainty ways. and entertain him
while his fortune Is being wiped out
he concluded grimly.
Brachard felt his muscles grow
tense In anticipation. He knew that
he could take Govain In those power
full arms OF his and break him, crush
him, as a child snaps wooden toy.
He laughed aloud In the Joy OF his
brute strength. He saw In anticipation
Govain. mad. delirious with excite
ment. while the shouts OF the news
boys on the streets told OF the break
In Egyptian copper. while his own
hands held his enemy by the throat
and made him listen.
Then he. too. went TO bed and slept
like dockman.

ture to the teachers Of the county
giving an outline and general
rules Of the Arkansas Boys Corn
Clubs and Prize Contests,
"Boys' Corn Growing Con.
tests" have become an estab-
lished feature of sch ool work in

twenty years of age may enter
the contest, and may cultivate
any amount Of ground he pleases
from one-quarter Of an acre up.
There are no other requirements

his plat of ground and forward
an exhibit of the corn grown to
the County Committee.
Prof. Shaver will soon, prob

Hurting The Town.

A town that never has any
thing to do in a public way, is on
the way to the cemetery. Any
citizen who does nothing for his
own town is helping to dig the
grave. A man that curses the
town furnishes the coffin. The
many who is 80 selfish az to have
no time from his business to give
TO the city affairs is making the
shroud, The man who will not
advertise is driving the hearse.
The man who is always pulling
back from any public enterprise
throws bouquets on the grave.
The man who is stingy as to be
bowling hard times, breaches the
funeral, sings the doxology, and
thus the town lies buried from all
sorrow and care Elk.

WANT FATHER CARED FOR.
Some OF Children OF E. c. Gray Ask
Guardian, Others Oppose Move.

This news item comes from
Batesville:
A suit has been filed in county
court here by children Of Mr.. &,
C. Gray, one of the Oldest in
habitant8 of the county, to have
a guardian appointed for him.
Mr.. Gray raised family Of 13
children and is now 70 years of
age. He is the father OF Hon,
"Gip" Gray and Thornton Gray,
the former an ex-member Of the
lower house of the Arkansas
General Assembly, and also an
ex-member of the Senate.
The application for guardian
is based on the allegation that
Mr.. Gray is of feeble mind, and
not capable of handling his
property affairs. Mrs. Jackson,
his youngest daughter, " i t h
whom he makes his home, and
Mrs. j. W. Ball, another daugh-
ter, are resisting the application
for guardian for their father.
The suit is attracting consider
able notice owing to the promi-
nence of all the parties, and their
wide acquaintance over the
state. A final hearing will be
had the second Monday in
March,
