Of the explorers in South America the details

markable how much dramatic interest Sir

more about Professor Summerlee, and es-
pecially about Sir John Roxton. real South

all through the wilderness. 1t is told how he

it is much better to wait and read for your
self.
The great big things in this most remark
able of adventure stories are imminent. One
can feel that in the reading. The actual ex-
can imagine.
One of the notable things about this novel
is that you can begin it even at this point
with the certainty that it will grip you to the
very end. Of course you will miss what has
gone before in which there is as deep interest,
if not quite so much excitement. as in what is
to come; but you can gather enough of the
narrative to have an intelligent understand
ing if you are unable to get the instruments
already printed.
THE LOST WORLD has already made
great sensation, and yet the best part of the
tale is still to come. We have heard much
about the brilliant illustrations by Joseph
Clement Coll. They are worthy Of the tale.

STRATEGY OF THE DIAMOND. by
Billy Evans. the distinguished umpire of the
American League. Few people know the
game better than he.-probably nobody
does,-and he is able to tell what he knows in
the most interesting fashion. His subject
gives him fine opportunity.
There doesn't seem to be any limit to the
resourcefulness of players and managers in
devising ways and means to win games.
Some of the devices are familiar enough; but
there are others you probably never heard Of
Mr.. Evans knows them all. 1t is the business
of the good umpire to know them, and to
guard against good many of them. Mr..
Evans. having in mind what General Sher-
man said of war, says the diamond struggles
have it beaten a mile which is probably
slight exaggeration.
"A baseball contest" says the author OF
the article, usually resolves itself into bat
tie of wits, with eighteen regular players, two
wise managers, and substitutes enough to fill
two benches, against two lonely umpires.''

insure that only active men will hold
office.
Another regulation definitely decid.
ed upon is that the present party rules
as they stand shall apply 80 primaries
for Territorial conventions to name
delegates to the National conventions,
as well as to other primaries. This
question arose last March when the
Territorial committee called the con.
vention primaries. Now the rules are
20 be recognized as applying to all
parties.
Another change is made, providing
that where there are several nominees
for one place in primary elections, and
all withdraw but one, only single
vote shall be necessary to elect. Thus
IL has been the case here that there
were six or seven candidates, say, in
precincts allowed four delegates, and
all withdrew but four, but the election
officials stayed through the voting day
just the same, where as any one ballot
for the four was sufficient.
Perhaps the recommendation of
most general interest is that providing

MANY INVESTIGATORS :.
WORKING IN kAU

HILO, January 22.-Since public
sentiment backed up the county attor-
ney in his contention that the Hilea
echool scandal should be further inves-
tigated, thus forcing the department of
public instruction to take the matter
up again, If spite of its complete ex.
oneration' of Principal Wilson, the
district of Kau has been flooded with
investigators.
: First Supervising Principal Miss
Bertha Taylor, who had already made
two official reports on the case, finding
the charges unfounded and Wilson in
noeent, was instructed to investigate
again. According to reports which have
reached The Advertiser - representa-
tive from several sources in Kau, this
last investigation appears to have been
considerably more Thorough than were
the former ones. AS a matter of fact,
it is stated that it brought out fresh
allegations, Miss Taylor 10 reported to
have sent her official report to the de-
partment last week, and to have re-
ported therein that she had been forced
to come to conclusion somewhat
different from that which she had at
first formed.
4 County Attorney Beers also spent
most of the week in Kau, investigat.
ing the case. Beers stated today, over
the phone, that he had been looking into
allegations of further unnatural con-
duet ON the part of Wilson, and that
he might bring new charge.
School Commissioner Moir and Su-
peryising Principal of Hilo Eugene
Horner leave today for Kan, as they
have been appointed as an investigat-
ing committee, also. So there win be
still more investigation.

WATCHING BY HAWA|rS DELEGATION

thus far agreed upon which apparently
would be injurious to the immigration
interests of Hawaii. AS much was said
of the Dillingham; bill, when it was
introduced, although there has been
and still is some uneasiness among rep
resentatives of Hawaiian interests here
lest the provisions exempting Hawaii
from certain requirements that are
specified for. immigration to the main
land should be dropped out at some
stage during consideration in the SEN
ate and house.
II is more or less doubtful whether
any general amendment of the immi-
grafton bill can be got through congress
at this session. That, however, is not
an argument against diligence in taking
care of the interests of the Islands in
the matter. ~
