ONE VAST CRANBERRY STEW
Terrifying Report That the New Jer.
sey Crop Has Been Totally De-
stroyed by Fire.

We are accustomed to the annual
scare about the failure of the Jcr-
sey peach crop and the tales Of
devastation in the apple orchards il
western New York. These stories
ire al right, ana we accept them
with Dalf-formed notion that they
may be true. Frosts have been
known to nip and worms to Light
he orchards, and so we accept these
.ales with only a few Inisgivings
lat they are spread abroad for CON-
nerclal purposes. But there is 3
INIT to credulity, and we think t
has Dccn reached in a story that
comes to MS from Mount Holly, n,
J. The New jersey cranberry crop
has been. burned Think Of IL.
All those acres of bog and swamp
one vast roaring cranberry stew.
And now what are we going to do
when Thanksgiving day comes
round? Probably we will find cor
ditions in regard to the cranberry
supply just as we ordinarily fnd
them iii relation to the peach crop.
That no matter how serious the
damage supposed to have been in
1lcted, the supply is about as large
as usual and the quality about the
same. However, it is not usual to
have bog catch fire. and there may
be more truth in this dispatch than
one might suspect.

Immense Pile Of Steel Shapes.

At Bayonne, N. j., there is what is
said to be the largest pile of steel
shapes which has ever been got to-
gether in this country. The pile weighs
about sixty thousand pounds and is es
timated to be worth $2,500,000. The
stack of metal is 500 feet long, 35 feet
high and 85 feet wide 1t was manu-
featured at Phoenixville, Pa, and is
designed for the construction Of the
Manhattan bridge across the East riv-
er at New York 1t required 10000 fiat
cars to transport 1t to Bayonne, where
1t was run over spur of the New Jer-
sey Central railroad to the yards. The
steel has all been painted red and
treated with a thick coating OF lead
and oil to prevent its being injured by
the elements. Some of 1t has been ex-
posed to the weather for a year and
shows no bad effects. Already the
tower pieces, weighing Ga tons each,
have been taken away for erection and
It is said that the pile will have entire
~ disappeared within two months.

THE GOVERNOR, THE PEO-
PIE AND THE NEWSPAPER

PLE AMI ItfE ~ n w IoTAT Ems
Judging from the reports appearing
in the newspapers in towns where Gov
ernor Donaghey has recently spoken,
he is meeting with nothing but encour-
agement at the appointments he has
been able to make. An instance is
seen in the Danville Democrats &C
count of the governors visit to that
place, which is in part:
Governor Donaghey addressed q
large crowd at the court house here
Wednesday, giving an account of his
stewardship and judging from the ova-
ton and applause given him, it was
to the entire satisfaction OF his hear
ers.
HE said, if | don't make the state
thousand dollars for every dollar
paid me, and if | don't prove to you
here today that | am doing it, don't
vote for me- He further said, If you
catch me in lie, don't you vote for
me-
The Democrat goes on to give brief
review of the address and says;
"The governor was given frequent
applause throughout his speech, and
at the close of his address was loudly
applauded and numbers pressed for
ward to shake hands with him"
In its editorial columns of the same
issue, the Democrat says:
"What the Democrat might say
about the gubernatorial race will not
cut any great ice, but we are inclined
to the idea that Governor DOnaghey
should be given second term. Let it
be admitted that he has made mistakes
everybody makes mistakes, but TAX
ing our present governor all around
we believe he's handling the job about
as well as any one else could, The
Democrat favors Donaghey for a sec
ond term"
This seems to be about the sentiment
of the country newspapers of Arkan-
sas, and they may usually be taken
to represent the sentiment of the peo-
pie among whom they circulate. 1t is
true that of the 300 newspapers in the
state there are perhaps a dozen that
are opposed to Governor Donaghey.
Yet in every instance selfish motive
unusually disappointed patronage
seeker-will be found at the bottom of
this opposition.
To this class of newspapers has re-
Gently been added two of the Pine
Bluff journals. Heretofore supporting
the governor, they editorially and per-
sonally demanded of him to pardon w.
Y. Ellis, and since his refusal they
have turned loose torrents of abuse
against him.
But in practically every case of this
kind the motive for the fight on Don
aghey is we'll known by the people
among whom these newspapers circu-
late, and such selfshly inspired oppo-
stion will accomplish little in the way
of changing these people.

Dickens, the Wizard.

Frank Speaight has come, seen and
conquered His recitaIs were rare in
tellectual and literary treats, and it IS
pleasure to know that he has been
persuaded to appear again at the Kilo-
hama Art League rooms in another Sc
ries Of recitals on his return from the
other islands.
Asked why Dickens was such popu-
lar author, Mr.. Speaight said: II will
put it in this way. Scott saw his world
through the window Of an abbey of
romance; thousands have never seen an
abbey. Thackeray looked at the world
from the smokingroom Of fashionable
London club, and thousands-yes. hun
dreds of thousands-of people are igno-
rant of the atmosphere Of such place.
Dickens, on the other hand, saw his
great world through a kitchen window.
and all of us--rich and poor and OF
whatever ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS kitchen.
1t is the simplicity Of Dickens which
makes him so widely read. He touches
the heart, where ofteutimes other au-
thors appeal to the head. We may not
all be able to understand the colossal
greatness of Shakespeare, but the SentI-
ment of the great English novelist Is

Female Burglar at the Empire.

Commencing Monday night at the
Empire Theater. Edvthe Elliott will
play the part of a female Raffes in
Mr.. Royals great burglar playlet, en-
titled Strengthening a Crook As a
sketch writer Mr.. Royal has few equals,
and the sketches he presented during
the past week prove him to be original
in the extreme.
In a twenty minute playlet he en-
bodies all the elements of a whole play,
and blends laughter with tears in such
an artistic manner as to hold the audi
ence spollbOund in the atmosphere of
the story from start to finish.
Strengthening a Crook tells a
beautiful story that points a grand
moral, and the part of coincidence
Jane affords Miss Elliott excellent OPP
portunitty for clever acting.
Mr.. Royal will play the part of de
tective who impersonates a "Sweie
expressman.' All Honolulu know how
