NEAR TRAGEDY IN
MARITAL M|XUP
Terrible Tangle Comes Straight
in the End-0n the Stage
in HiIo Town.

John Brown,
Elm avenue, Pickeltop o. the Thames.
l implore you to see me at once. My
husband must not know. Ny future
happiness depends ON you. / will re-
main at home all day waiting for you
to call. CLARA TEMPLE.
80 Curzon street,
Mayfair, London.
HILo, January 3.-The question is
how much trouble can you see in the
foregoing telegram. How much trouble
would You raise if your husband were
the recipient9
No matter how you draw upon your
imagination you will fall far snort of
the answer unless you attended the per-
foimance of Mrs. Temples telegram
given by the members of the Hilo Dra-
matte Club at the Gaiety theater in
Hilo on New Yeal IS Eve.
In the mixup which follows the send
ing of the telegram and the reading of
the imprint of the same from the BLOT
ter by several interested parties, three
wives almost lose their husbands, three
husbands nearly separate from their
wives, one betrothed pair is brought
together and one butler loses his job.
Naturally this mixup can't be ,unmix-
ed and all of these tangles untangled
without the Introduction of some very
funny situations and the members of
the club are to be congratulated on
the clever way in which they brought
out all of the comedy contained in the
lines of the piece.
Numbcr one Of the almost lost wives
was played by Mrs. A. G. Curtis who
made her part wonderfully natural and
wore three very stunning gowns during
the action of the play.
Mrs. II. b. Elliott also carried away
high honois for her character work, as
another of the almost lost better
halves. The last of the wifely trio was
ably handed by Miss Miller and the
restored sweetheart fell to the lot of
Miss Carolin Shipman.
All of the credit did not go to the
feminine contingent for ID. f. Metzger
and Norman G.. Campion, as two of the
husbands, ard George A. Cool as the
brother were ably seconded in their
clever work by Mr.. Cowles as the
restored lover, and w. j. Stone as the
| third husband.

THE AGNoSTIc's PRAYER.

Thou who art the life of all
That live in this Thy universe;
The Architect of its fair plan
The Master Builder of its vast
And glorious star-strewn ARMAMENT
We only know that Thou art good,
And wise to rule Thy wide domain;
With might TO swing the circling spheres
Along their ways The comet comes
And disappears in outer gloom
Thy messenger to distant realms
Beyond ken. Art Thou too great
Too busy with the care of worlds
To heed our call and come to our
Relief, some fond mother hastes
To help her troubled child? We know
Not yet when betides, whence comes
The answering message to our cry2
And in our JOY, to whom goes out
Our thankfulness7 And would we rise,
Forgiveness waits by night and day,
In crowded fame and wilderness
On hearts repentant for the sins
That mar the world We would find Thee
And render praise and service due;
Yet not like trembling slaves, nor yet
As thrifty worshipers for gain
In that far land of Jasper towers
And streets of gold and mansions bright
We seek and pray for more than this
The homage of the contrite heart
heart that feels the primal tide t.r
OF life that sways the universe
TO betterment and righteousness
And fareth forth to share its wealth.
As slumbering waters wake 10 feel
The call OF passing planet fair,
And follow her around the world

And follow Thee throughout the world,

The proposal for a new franchise
to be granted the Denver Union Water
Company has been submitted to the
people and to the number of forty
thousand, they have asked permission
to vote on it. In the meanwhile the
air is filled with the shrieks of ad
vocates of municipal ownership. In
all the TRADE and abuse that is poured
out on the peoples ears, we look i
vain for one real argument showing
why a franchise should not be grant
ed as requested. 1t is easy to say
the proposal is unreasonable, and
that the water corporation is eXto'
tionate. Abuse of men and measures
is a favorite dodge of the contender
who can give no reason why he is
right.
The Water Company complains that
it has had hard time making ends
meet during the last fifteen years Of
the old franchise, because of the liti-
cation in which it was involved, and
says that it asks a franchise now, ex-
plicit in terms, and free from legal
complications, in the hope that it will
get untrammelled use of its plant and
make money in the next twenty years.
Well may the average citizen stop in
perplexity between these two views
of one question. To us it seems far
the more serGible to listen to neither
side. but go after the facts and make
ones own decision. Nobody believes
that any company should furnish wa
ter for cost nobody believes that men
who have fattened on politics are 60

A head walter in one of the city
clubs tells The Statesman that fre.
quently he has requests from club
members for colored help of various
kinds, Both because his work keeps
him busy and because idle persons
are scattered here and there. he is
usually unable to help those who
might fill these places. This lack of
clearing house for places for work
and idle workers costs the Negroes OF
this community thousands OF dollars
each year. It will do the community

The hearing of the Hardsocg- Bur-

WRONG BOTTLE

I. "A. FISHER TAKES cARBoLlc
ACID in MISTAKE FOR PEPslN
WITH PAINFUL RESULTS.

The mistaking of carbolic acid Tor
pepsin came near costing l.. A. F1sher
his life last evening. Mr.. Fisher makes
his home at the pest house where ne
has charge for the city, and having
been In i'll health from stomach trouble
for which he has been taking pepsin
he made a serious mistake last even
ing by taking the wrong bottle. The
good fortune Of having liquor IN the
house was probably responsible FOR
saving his life. it being the chemical
antidote for the dread poison. liberal
doses Of the liquor killing much OF the
effect Of the acid. Today Mr.. Fisher
rests pretty well. His mouth ana
throat were burned severely and the
latter is very soreStoday as a result OF
the mistake Mr.. Fisher states that at
about 5 o'clock last night he took
down from shelf what he supposed to
be pepsin, but not looking closely at
the label, took perhaps a dessert
spoonful of the carbolic acid before he
realized his error Medical aid was
given him as soon as possible after the
accident and he spent night Of great
pain and was not out of danger for
several hours. His condition now Is
though to be favorable to recovery.

UNION LABOR
PRESIDENT GoMPERs AND A E.
HOLDER SAY CONGRESSMAN
HAS ANSWERED EVERY CALL
MADE UPON HIM.

Des Moines, Oct. 14.-After an In
vestigation Of the record Of Congress-
man N. e. Kendall Of the sixth district,
who is candidate for reelection, IN
both the state legislature and congress
the officers of the American Fedora
tion of Labor have found that he has
responded without hesitation to every
call made upon him by the forces OF
labor, according to reports sent out
from the national headquarters Of the
federation.
In letter to President A. L. Urick
Of the State Federation of Labor,
Arthur E. Holder of the legislative
committee of the American Federation
speaks in the highest terms Of the
craftsmanship Of the Iowa congress
man. He says in part: =
1T is the opinion of the American
Federation Of Labor, after close OBJ
servation, that Kendall is the best
equipped man in the house from Iowa,
and he ranks high in accomplishments
with the best from other states who
have had years of experience. What
i particularly admire about him is his
straightforwardness, his courage, and
his industry to care for the interests
of the whole people. And in our be-
half he is both moral and mental
giant
The same confirmation Of the work
accomplished by Kendall is contained
in letter by President Samuel Com
pers of the, American Federation OF
Labor to A. j. Riggs of Hiteman. Mr..
Gompers unhesitatingly states that
the Iowa man has without fail an
.swered every call made upon him by
organized labor.
