Champion Is Chameleon
Nauehton Calls Attention to Jack johnson
Bewildering Changes Concerning Fights
By w. w. NdughtOn

Johnson is queer fighter" re.
marked a sport who keeps close
tab on the developments In the pugil.
istfc world. He says he won't tackle
Sam McYea or Jim Flynn until he
gets thirty thousand dollars cold, but
declares he Is wiling to trade punches
with jim, Corbott just for the fun Of
the thing
Well. what's the difference? What
Jack Johnson says matters little. IL
is what he does that counts. And the
man who can predict. with any de-
gree Of certainty, the nature OF Jacks
activities during the next few months
must be gifted with second sight in
an extraordinary degree.
Here are a couple of guesses. II
Johnson boxes either Mcvea or
Flynn, the remuneration will be con-
sidorahly less than. $4,000. II John
son and Corbett meet face to face.
there will be no blood sned.

a tumble OF contradictions. he

While across the pond he entered

so persistent In telling that he was

FLYNN and the champion swallowed
the lure, hook, line and sinker. Did

Flynn match appealed TO Jack.

champion vouchsafed by way of ex-

Incidentally, not word has been
heard OF the McYea affair since. Per-

DIR, SUN NOW
EDITOR AND MAY
BECOME BANKER

SHANGHAI. July 31.-Dr. Sun Vat
Sen. first president of the reyoluntion-
ars government of China has declared
that should the international loan fail.
he will proceed to the establishment
OF central bank with a capital OF
f2.000.OG0, subscribed by Chinese
capitalists resident in foreign eoun-
tries. DR.. Sun made the statement
tkat he had information TO the effect
that this sum had already been sub
sc ribed. the main purpose of the or
ganizers being to secure concessions
and develop them with Chinese CAPT
tai.
1t is known that DR.. Sun while in
South China had an eye out Mr.
prospects for the DEVELOPMENT of pub
lie utilities. and in the meantime
emissaries of the revolutionary gov
ernment were busy visiting the differ
cnt Chinese colonies in foreign lands
securing subscriptions to domestic
loans for the benefit of the Chinese
Loan appeared to have been forgotten
There has been some agitation along
the lines Of establishing a state bank
in Kwangtung. but it has not yet
materialized. 1t is not improbable
that DR.. Suns bank will be financed
by the subscriptions originally made
towards the domestic loan.
II is understood in the capital that
Df. Sun Vat Sen and Tang Shao-yi
have taken lover the property of the

MILITANT WOMEN
"PLAY OUT" MEN

LONDON, August 18.-If the suffra-
gettes in thi country have accom-
plished no other thing, they have sue
ceeded in playing out" more than one
of the men who have had to cope with
them
When the late governor of Holloway
prison, where most of the suffragette
prisoners have been jailed, resigned a
few weeks ago, it was said frankly
ti:at the breakdown in his health was
the result of the storm and stress IF
having SO many militant members of
the sisterhood with their hunger
strikes and endless f1are-ups under
his roof. and it is an open secret that
the coming retirement of the watch
dog of the House of Commons" Chief
Inspector Seantlebury, at a compare
tive early age, is mostly due to the
heavy respons ibi.ity that rested on
him when the clamorers for a vote"
were besieging the House almost
every night.
He says himself that the suffraget-
ties gave him more worry than did the
Bradlaugh Irish members in their
wild" days and all the rest of the
tribulent folk he had to deal with.

MOVING NEST.

The remarkable and, it is believed,
unparalleled, fact of pair of swallows
building in one of the carriages OF q
local train which made frequent jour
neys between two local stations in
Victoria is recorded, says the Austria
liam Emu. The swallows had built
their nest in the under iron frame
work of one of the second-class car
riages of train running daily from
Stony Point to Mornington Junction
and back, fifteen miles each way, hut
occasionally going on to Morningtnn
Station, eight miles further. When
examined at Somerville Station :he
nest contained five eggs, which were
then warm. The nest, which appears
to have been constructed at Morning
ton Junction terminus, is stated to
have taken five weeks in building. The
birds were not seen to be always fol-
lowing the train, but Joined it at vari-
Gus, points en- route.

MRS, ELIZA ROY
DIES At HOME
in KONA
Pioneer Woman Passes Away
Mourned by Friends All
Over Territory

Mrs. Eliza Roy. one of Hawaii's
pioneer women and known throughout
the Territory. died at her home at
kainaliu, kona, yesterday. Illness
was due to old age. Mrs. Roy being
in her eighty-first year. News of her
death was received late yesterday by
friends in this city.
In the passing away of Mrs. Eliza
Roy. formerly Eliza Davis. of Wal
inca Hawaii. a link with the past
has been broken. Born eighty years
ago, she was essentially a part of
the old regime, not only from the
point of years, but as claiming rela-
tionship with the pioneers of Hawaii.
Isaac Davis, near relative, was
one who with John Young, played an
important part in the history of these
islands.
Exchanging the name of Davis for
that of Johnson early in life, she al
forwards married a Mr.. Roy. her en-
tire married life being in Kona,
where her home was ever known as
a hospitable one. There the stranger
was sure OF { welcome, and from
early times the Johnson home stood
for the open house peculiar to those
days.
With a strong personality which
commanded the respect of all and
with many noble traits, Mrs. Roy was
beloved by large cirC;e. Hers was
the generous hand, but the quality OF
her kindness was unobtrusiVe and OF
her ready help to the needy and thu
suffering no record has been made.
Eight children survive her: Mrs.
VIM. A. Shipman, Mrs. Caroline ].
Robinson, Mrs John D. Paris, Mrs.
T. C. White, Mrs. A. Wall and w. +.
Roy.
With a strong faith in the unseen,
to Her soul, Gods glorious image
freed from clay" de doubt not has
come the steadieI light, the clearer
day.

GIRLSOF TODAY DEMAND TOO
MUCH OF THEIR men FRIENDS

they were in a crowd. Now the
young folks do not wish to be attend
ed by any one else. 1t would be hard
to give the reason for this as it is not
likely that anyone really knows.
OId-Fashioned Customs.
A group of boarding school girls
were speaking of the times that their
mothers called good, but which TO
them seemed decidedly pOky. Just
think" said one OF them, My mother
used TO go with a whole crowd TO
church on Sunday evening. and walk
home afterwards. and then think
that she had had a jolly time" Does
1t not seem rather too bad that more
of the young folks of today do not
follow this old-faShioned custom, for
ii is not only a good way to spenu
Sunday evening, but is also a profit
able one in the way of exercise.
Of course, the young men and
young women of our parents time
looked forward more to the home
making than do the young people OF
this day and generation. Now that
the women are coming to the front
in politics, and are so DESTROYS Of
holding a vote, more of their time is
given over to contemplation of these
things, than to the thought of home
making. II neither the young men
nor young women are thinking Of
having homes of their own while
they are still young, perhaps it does
not matter if the whole of a young
mans salary is spent in amusement.
Statistics show that both men and
women are marrying at more ma
ture age today than they did in the
days of our great grandmothers, one
of the reasons for this may be that
they can not afford to do otherwise.
The girls who have had so much done
for them while they are receiving the
attentions of the young men, natur-
ally expect many of these luXuries
after they are married.
Many Girls Better Trained.
All of the girls of today do not make
all of these demands upon their
friends. There are still number of
mothers who have lived with their
children so closely that their ways are
similar, and who have taught their
daughters that it is never right to put
themselves under the obligation to
men who are merely causal acquaint-
ances. AS a rule the young men who
low these mothers and daughters,
SS.them far better than they do the
rs. At least that is what the men
themselves say. In the home there is
usually chatting dish and coffee or
chocolate is made at home instead of
at the restaurant. If the. young girl
could know how very attractive size IS
when cooking over a chatting dish she
would probably insist upon having one,
and upon making frequent use of it.
While speaking with young man
on this subject he said that he hoped
some day to have a home of his own,
not a rented one, but one that he

As one Of the chaperones at a re-
cent ball noticed a group of young
girls enter the room unescorted, she
remarked about IT, why, when
was a young girl" said she, Il should
have felt sadly neglected II / had not
even one invitation To attend such a
function as this.
Things must have changed great
~ In the past thirty years, or else
the gills and boys in Honolulu are
different from tne girls and boys

Another woman, a few years young,
er, perhaps, who had daughters OF
her own, turned and said: THE times
have not changed, my dear, but our
girls have chaIged their ideas. Very
few OF the young men who occupy
positions paying from eighty to hun,
dred dollars a month can afford to
take the girls to the theatre, and, 10
use the slapgy phrase Of the school
girl, treat them right AS you know
] have never allowed my daughter to
20 out in the evening without me,
and as have had brothers of my
own, do not allow a young man TO
spend more or even as much as he
can afford In entertaining my daugh-
ters."
The discussion was taken up by
other members Of the group and one
OF them told of some of the things
q girl expects of the young man who
acts as her escort.
Must Have Auto.
'1f she lives any distance off the
car line he should come for her in a
machine and after the theatre he
must take her to cafe for something
to eat. The majority of the girls
probably think that 1t is more
grown up to order a supper. Per-
haps they do not know that 1t shows
a lack of thought for young woman
TO enter cafe at late hour with
out chaperon, and that 1t is very
poor taste indeed to order a heavy
meal at that time of night"
my daughter came into my room
the other day," continued one of the
ladies, 4and as she seemed to be poui-
ing, | asked her what was the mat
ter. With q doleful smile she said
that young man of her acquaintance
had asked her to attend a dance, and
to be ready to take the eight-fifteen
car. She had refused to do so, and
told me that she did not care to walk

The mothers OF today do IT know
what to do with their daughters who
demand so very much from their
friends, because to them the condi.
tions have so greatly changed in the
past few years. When the mothers
