Makes Land
His Theme

TT was the largest conglomeration
of elouuence that ever hit the circum-
bient atmosphere at Lahaina," said
Soap-box Barron this morning, in de-
scribing the speech he made at the
old capital city last week Barron is
very proud of his Lahaina speech,
though he doesn't seem able coher-
emily to tell what it was all about.
Il always was umpty at talking,
he said proudly on Fort street today
But after that speech and seein' its
effect guess l must have recently
learned something. You never saw
the atmosphere so full of air before.
OF course Link talked after me. But
he talked business-and the crowd
began to ooze away like a cake of
ice on the sidewalk in the June sun.
Link can talk little, but-oh, we'll,
| shall be at my best this fall"
Just at this stage of Barron's re-
marks a gray-haired gentleman pass
ed along and joshed him about his
indefatigable tongue. Barron came
back with a characteristic retort.
Never mind" said the passerby, I'll
get you some day where you can't
talk"
'Tt will be when Pm dead" said Bar
ron.
The gray-haired gentleman walked
on with smile and Barron, proud,
as usual, of his quick retort, asked
who he was.
I'D never have made that answer,
if I'd known it," he remarked, when
