And why.
Because civilization Is slow In COM

Do you say the war vessel and the

TRUE COURAGE.

True courage has 20 little to do
with anger that there always lies
the strongest suspicion against it
where this passion is highest. True
courage is cool and calm. The
bravest Of men have the least bul-
lying insolence and in the very time
Of danger are found the most Sc
rene. pleasant and free. Rage. we
know. can make a coward forget
himself and fight. But what is
done in fury or anger can never be
placed to the account Of courage

Items Gathered In
From Far and Near
The "sueker List"

From the New York Times.
1t is interesting to learn from good
authority that the lists of names used
by promoters of various benevolent
schemes to make everybody who does
the right thing at the right time
wealthy are technically called suck
er lists" II you frequently receive in
vitations to invest few trifiing dol
lars in stock which will be worth a
hundred times its selling price in a
few months you are therefore classed
as sucker" The wonder is that 50
many persons who never buy specu-
lative stocks of any kind under any
circumstances should have their
names on these lists. The inference
is that the sucker lists" are not sci
entifcally made out, that guesswork
and mere accident enter largely into
their composition. 1t may be however
that the wise persons who manage
stock selling syndicates class every
body as a "suker." without prejudice,
and that their experience in the long
run justifes the classification. Ger
tainly few persons who have perma-
nent actresses escape solicitation
They find themselves on divers and
many mail order lists" and their
daily mail is apt to include several in
vitations to invest in mines. real es-
tate operations and manufacturing
concerns. along with appeals to aid
charities and requests from tailors
and bootmakers for their custom. 1t
is a we'll known fact that the compila.
ton of these lists is a branch Of mod
ern business reputed to be lucrative.
The lists are sold They must be
worth buying or they would not be
bought. Yet who does not invariably
crumple up this superfiuous part of
his daily mail and throw it into the
waste basket?

William Loeb is giving his country
a very vivid demonstration of actual
reform in the system of collecting for
eign revenue. In one year he saved
to the government the sum of 81, OOO,-
600 and better than all, he has seem
ingly actually destroyed a system of
graft and gain. which amounted to
robbery of the nation in an amazingly
brief period. though it had been in
trenched for years. And after all, it
was simple work. requiring only com.
mon honesty. courage and a determin-
alton to do what a strong mind con-
ceived to be right and possible. It
sets high standard for future col
lectors at the port Of New York, too
high to offer much ground for the be-
lief that 1t will ever be safe or posi-.

afternoon and decided that they

Colonel Billiard landed here He came
in on the transport Logan from the

Saturday.
Lieutenant Colonel Billiard is Boy

that they would get in touch with the
army officer this morning and try to
arrange two public meetings, with the
lieutenant colonel as the principal
speaker They want to have one meet

A number of Honolulu business men

SUGGEST CH|CAGO
TEAM COME HERE
Promotion Committee Might Ar
range for Series Following
Schedule in Japan.

The Chicago University baseball
team, now on the way to Japan, will
finish its series with the Wasedas and
keios By November.
Why not invite the bunch to stop
of here on their return for short
series with two or three of the strong
est teams that could be picked in Ho-
noiuius
So ask some vino would be willing to
take a chance at the Windy City aggre
cation, only who could promote it
properly?
That big league series out at the
league grounds, they say. was farce.
There was not much management to
it: the grounds were neglected entirely,
twenty dollars to put them in shape.
Lieutenant Bowen. who proposed the
series that was played there. was in
evidence at two or three of the games.
I but the public didn' I take any inter
est and the affair seemed to run itself.
Shower baths are now being installed
under the grandstand, making the place
less Objectionable TO the players, il was
said yesterday, but the crowds don t
appear to tend that way The Military
Athletic Association holds the lease on
the league grounds from the Rapid
Transit company, and any live promoter
| who might he induced TO arrange an
engagement there would have to make
deal with the association.
The Athletic Park management was
/ suggested, but their aversion to final
! settlements was mentioned as an I'M
pediment in the way of getting teams
/ into a series. If it don t rain too much
! in November il was thought that Ath-
| letie Park would be good place to
draw the crowds. but with heavy rains
! the diamond there is only fit for aquatic
/ sports.
| The ChicagOans Will arrive in Japan
about the twentvsIXth of TINS month.
ard whoever has the gumption 10 get
/ busy and work il up Will have to, cable
f! some kind of an~offer to the travelling
| team pretty soon. so that negotiations
| can be consummated and arrangements
! completed here. for November Is only
| about six weeks off 1t might be that
| the Chicagoans could only be induced
/ to stav over one steamer, and the num-
her of local teams TO take them on
would have to be limited according to
their time allowance in Honolulu. Base
ball has about petered out here just
now. and with six weeks rest II IS
thought that lively interest would seize
the fans again. especially in combat
between the local talent and a strong
! university team from the metropolis OF
the middle West.
To get a Chicago team here would
be good stroke of promotion work,
and here presents an opportunity for
| the Hawaii Promotion Committee to
start the sport boosting movement
which was suggested by R. A. Jordan
