Cupid has been up to his pranks
again, girls! And what do you sup
pose he has done this time? Why he
has played us the neatest, cutest and
widest trick of the season, when he
whistled to two of his young victims,
and winking mischievously whisked
them into st. Andrews Cathedral on
Monday afternoon, thinking nobody
would get WISE" the little rascal, so
he could perform his joke and then,
when we found it out, hold his sides in
laughter, at how slow we were!
Well, he accomplished his end, the
naughty rogue, and
But you are all getting impatient
to know who were the ones about
which all this fuss is being made.
To make long story short-which
even in it's serial form is only about
two chapters long--Miss Genevieve
Langton, the beautiful young belle of
the younger set and one of the most
popular girls in Honolulu, on Monday
afternoon, at five O'Clock, in the
simplest and quietest manner imagin,
able, became the bride of Mr. Charles
| Bennett, the handsome and fascinat.
ing young baritone operate star, and
even while this is being read by you
in stupor of surprise, Mr. and Mrs.
Bennett are unconcernedly living at
| the Alexander Young Hotel.
It seems that Mr.. Bennett became
enamored of his beautiful young bride
while in Honolulu about year ago,
| when he was en- tour with the Her
bert Withers Concert Company, and
the much feted and admired guest of
ex-Attorney General and Mrs. Hem
enway, and the courtship which be-
gan so promisingly was continued by
mail ever since.
At last Mr.. Bennett came down and,
at a pretty luncheon given in com
| pliment to Miss Langton, her engage
ment to the visitor was announced.
OF course all the girls were delight
ed and surprised, for even the bride
elects closest friends had not had
intimation of the case, and were put
ting their heads together wondering
/ just when the wedding would take
place, and where, and what would &c
nevieve wear, and would she be ner
vous and all that, and deciding just
when they would spring the first bic

Everybody's going somewhere,
It's as hot as it can be,
And the people are dispensing
To the mountains and the sea
Spring fever's full upon us
And the land is fast asleep
The vacation bugs a-humming
And its making envy creep.
When to Reno everybody
Tried to touch" a dozen twelves,
All their friends said nothing doing,
For they wanted it themselves.
Every steamers full of people
Decked with every kind of lei,
And they smile in pity on us
AS the band plays them away.
Everybody's going somewhere
Distant pleasure fields to roam
You and ! are plain noEodies
Cause we've got to stay at home.

What victim of reproaches and

The wedding ceremony on Mon
day was performed by Reverend Ca
non Simpson, ex-Attorney General He
menway acting as best man, and MISS
Sarah Lucas as maid of honor to the
bride, who was given away by her
father, Mr.. William Langton. Only
few of the relatives of the bride and
most dearly intimate friends witness
ed the ceremony.
Mr. and Mrs. Bennett will reside at
the Young Hotel until their early de-
parture for Bennington, Vermont,
where Mr.. Bennett will take his love-
ly young bride for visit to his rela-
tives before returning to Boston,
which will be their future home.
Among the departing passengers in
the last Wilhelmina was DR.. G. B..

the National Guard rifle team, went
on to join the boys at Camp Perry.
Later, DR.. Cooper will travel in the

Philadelphia and New York, where
he will spend some time at the va
rious hospitals He will return in
about four months.

salesmanship.

A salesman in a furnishing store dis
played to a friendly customer a gen
tleman's plain linen handkerchief at
50. The maa had always thought he
was doing well TO pay 80 cents and
questioned the salesman about it.
"How can man figure it that he
gets his moneys worth when he pays
So for a handkerchief 1t doesn't
serve the purpose any better, and he
couldn't afford 10 tell any one that he
was big enough fool to pay that price.
HE gets his moneys worth said
the salesman. from the added force
Of self respect that comes with bis
own personal assurance that he has
the best that can be produced. That
conviction helps him in urging his
point and in swinging the big deal his
way. and the So is a mere item Of In
cidental expense"
Ever afterward that customer gladly
paid more not only for handkerchiefs,
but for every item Of his wardrobe.
That is salesmanship.- Golfers

Burlington, May 6.-F. G. Fleet.
wood of Morrisyille was the principal
speaker last evening at a smoker
held by Champlain lodge No Z, X. Of
p, in their rooms on Church street
He spoke first upon the general sub
iect of fraternalism and then turned
to politics. He touched upon several
issues, including direct primaries
good roads, the method of selection
Of grand and petit jurors and the
House Of Correction versus the coun-
ty jail.
Mr. Fleetwood began by saying that
he considered brother the finest
word in the English language, carry
ing with it, as it does, so much Of
peace and friendship. He dwelt at
some length upon the aim of frater-
nal orders such as the odd Fellows,
and the Knights of Pythias. He then
turned to politics.
The chief end and aim Of the can
didate for office said Mr. Fleetwood,
should be to carry into effect the
principles for which he stands. He
should not seek office merely for the
glory of holding it or to further the
plans of his organization.
Mr.. Fleetwood seemed to hold the
present caucus system of nomination
in disfavor and advocated direct pri-
maries in order that the people and
not the organization, should nominate
the candidate. He outlined at con
siderable length the present workings
Of party machinery in the state. In
cidentally he said that at state con-
yentions the platform was thrown in
to the shadow by the Importance OF
the candidate.
After touching upon the evil of cor
rupt practices in elections, with spec
ial reference to the use of money,
Mr.. Fleetwood passed to the subject
of good roads. He advocated econ
omy in other things that there might
be more state money for the so-called
trunk lines. He also said that new
methods Of calling the grand and
petit iuries might be adopted which
would prove more economical
Mr.. Fleetwood came out strongly
against the present method of keep
ing prisoners in county jails where
their board costs the state 80 cents
per day. At the House Of Correction
their board would cost approximately
u cents per day and from their la
Dor the state would net approximate
ly SO cents per day. The governor
has the power to order the remoya
Of prisoners from county jails to the
House of Correction.

Pre.columbian Vovnaes.

Concerning the subject Of the discov-
cry of America John Fiske says:
Nothing can be clearer from a survey
of the whole subject than that these
pref Columbian voyages were quite bar
rem of results Of historic Importance.
In point Of colonization they produced
the two i'll fated settlements on the
Greenland coast and nothing more;
otherwise they made no real addition
to the stock of geographical knowl.
edge They wrought no effect what
ever upon the European mind. In no
sense was any real contact established
between the eastern and western
halves of our planet until the great
voyage of Columbus in 1902"

She Didn't Dance.

In 1876 Il gentleman living in Hamp-
shire. England. named Samuel Bald
win, died after a rather stormy and
most unhappy married life In his will
he directed that all his vast estate be
given his wife Oh condition that she
should dance upon his grave from time
to time As the will further instructed
that his remains should be taken by
boat to the Needles aud from there
cast into the sea. this, OF course. pre-
vented his widow from fulfilling the
conditions Of the will aud thus lost her
the property. He however, had his
revenge foI the various tempers she
had exhibited during their life to-
gether and for the remarks she often
made that she would yet dance upon
his grave" o. Cincinnati Commercial

FORT KNOCKS OUT
 ANTI-STORAGB ACT
BASES RULING IN APPEAL CASE ON DECISION OF SUPREME COURT IN EDGE CASE ORIGINATING IN BESsEMER

The constitutionality of the anti-storage clause of the Fuller bill as represented in the city prohibition ordinance, was the ground for a demurrer raised yes- terday by counsel for Phillip wolff de- fendant in an appeal case brought. against him by the city in the hearing before Criminal Judge w. E. Fort in the criminal court. Judge Fort sus- tained the demurrer under the ruling of the supreme court in the famous Eidge case in Bessemer.
 The case was passed until October 21. when arguments will be submitted by Assistant City Attorney J. Quincey Smith, representing the city in the case The case will probably go to the su- preme court
 The anti-storage clause in the city ordinance is to the effect that the find- ing of liquor in any place besides a pri- vate dwelling Is prima facie evidence of violation of the prohibition law
 Attorney Smith holds that the Besse- mer city ordinance, in regard to which the supreme court decision was made in the Eidge case, is somewhat different from the Birmingham ordinance.
