STAR OF THE SOUTH.
BY Harold Carter.


Frank Byrnes strolled into the lit
tie room at the back OF the clothing
store In Kimberley, South Africa.
where Sol Nathanson ostensibly car
ried on a meager trade with natives
returning home from their service in
the diamond mines. The proprietor,
fat, middle-aged man of unctuous
appearance, rose UP and greeted him
effusively.
"Sit down. Mr.. Williamson" said
Byrnes. Pm here to make a straighI

alighted. The cab was dismissed,
and, after ii was driven away, the
four turned down the cul-de-sac to-

of which the duchess was confined.
Monsieur lie Due was no coward, and
yet he shivered involuntarily as he
followed Seager into the dark, dank
corridor. while Arendsen carefully
closed and locked the door.

Good Looking Men Who
Have Worked Hard For
Shrlnsdom and Made
Good

Aloha Temple Order Of the Mystic
Shrine is celebrating today with the
largest class Of novitiates that has
ever entered its portals on any SIN
gle occasion.
II was hoped that this might be
the year when the local Temple
would entertain guests from the
mainland and with the assistance OF
islam Temple Of San Francisco ana
other Mobiles Of the Pacific Coast
put the novitiates through their va
rious stunts In the crater OF Kilau-
ca. This was not to be however.
The elections and business and vari-
Gus other things interfered, so 1t has
been decided to hold high carnival
In the city and give the largest class
Of Aloha Shrine history the largest
run for their money that has ever
been known.
Aside from Potentate Bockus
whose photograph adorns pages near
err the front rank the men who have
done the work Of spreading the fame
Of Aloha Temple abroad are the ofii-
GERS whose pictures are shown on
this page. Rabban Brcckons will be
the Potentate next year and although
he doesn't claim to be much to look
at he can cd like fun when he gets
started.
without casting any reflections on
any other member OF the Temple,
the man who has done more In re-
cent years to make Its name known
throughout the land of Shrinedom Is
James 8. McCandless commonly
known as Sunny Jim Of Hawaii be-
cause he hts the part He is the
man who presided at the headquart-
ers Of the National Conclave and
spent his time and money 30 freely
for the good Of Hawaii. Mr.. Nc
Candless should be watched closely

noted that he has . Shrine button

SUCCESSOR OF sUpr.elLBERT

&c. Blanchard, for the past eleven
years division superintendent of the
Northern Pacific, with headquarters
in Duluth eight OF those years, has
been appointed general superinten-
dent Of the Northern Pacific with
headquarters in St. Paul, to succeed
+. w. Gilbert. who died about two
weeks ago. Mr.. Blanchard Is thor
oughly capable railroad man and has
earned his deserved promotion. He
began railroading as telegraph oper-
ator in Kansas, was promoted from
time to time and became chief dis
patcher for the N. p. and the Lake
Superior division. This position ne
held for many years, and left it to be-
come superintendent OF this division
about eleven years ago. He was sta.
toned in Duluth for a couple of years
after that, then his division head
quarters were transferred to st.
Paul, but almost six years ago he
came back to Duluth, and his head
quarters have been there ever since.
