ONE RAT
DELIVERED TO
THE CITY HALL
FIRST ONE OF PESTS DELIVERED
SINCE THE OFFER OF THREE
CENTS APIECE WAS TAKEN TO
DR.. BRINK BY A NEGRO BOY
EMPLOYED IN THE BLOUNT
BUILDING.

Despite the fact that it was pub
lished yesterday morning that the city
county had made an appropriation to
be used for the determination of rats
end that price of three cents each,
dead or alive, had been offered for
them, only one rat was delivered at
the Office Of DR.. F. A. Brink, state bac-
teriologist, during the day yesterday.
This one was carried in by one of
the negro employees in the Blount build
ing.
The rat was examined by DR.. Brink
and showed nothing to indicate that
there was any danger of the spread of
the bubonic plague from this particu
lar rat. There was absolutely no
danger of spread from this particular
source, however, when the bacteriolo-
gist got through with him.
It is expected that from now on in
terest in the determination of the rats
will be on the increase and that many
of them will be brought in during the
next few days.

FOR MISS JETER
AND MISS WRIGHT.

Nature has been anything but in
harmony with the brightness lent by
society's smiles, but though the week
has been rainy and inclement, it has
in no way interfered with the parties
that have made the week prominent
in it's entertainment of visitors, says
the Register.
Yesterday morning this brightness
was everywhere apparent at the
lovely Dauphin way home of Mr.. and
Mrs. J. r. Mighell, where there gath
cred a charming little coterie of the
friends of their daughter, Miss Ma
bel Mighell, to meet two attractive
visiting girls, Miss Mary Jeter and
Miss Bertha Wright, of Atlanta, the
house guests of their cousin, Miss
Fendley Dudley Glass. The affair was
delightfully."- informal, for while the
girls engaged in fancy work they
were pleasantly entertained with the
bright conversation of the merry lit
tie company or with some lovely
music contributed by Miss Grace
Harris, while a little later ice tea and
sandwiches appealed to their taste.
The friends whom Miss Mighell in
vited to meet Miss Wright and Miss
Jeter in this delightful informal way
were Misses Fendley Dudley Glass,
Emily Gray. Mary Mott Rhett, Mary
and Grace Harris, Gladys Boone, Til
lie Pope, Helen futile Of Birming-
ham. Mary Emma and Virginia
Creary, Frances and Clarice Moragues
and Mary Frazer.

After fortnight of activity scarce
~ equaled in two years, the stock mar
ket has been struck dead or next

sugar has held. the only reason left
for this stroke of paralysis is the po-
litical one. Until there comes reas-
surance of the fate of the sugar tariff

any revival of business in Hawaiian
securities will not be expected
There are buying orders enough but
from people who look for lower prices
than holders will concede, and the
fact that there is no rush to sell for
anything the market will yield keeps
the situation-ou of the panic class.
Asking prices down the line are just a
shade above bids, while in several
cases bids are equal to, or only slight
ly below, last sale quotations. So far
there is not what can be called a
slump in prices, as these are still gen.

LAWS EXTREME PENALTY

Francisco Antoine Mesquetta, who
killed friend and injured the friend s
wife in an affray at the latter's home
on the evening of the Fourth of July,
may not be tried for murder in the
first degree. Judge Robinson an
nounced this morning, when the pris-
oner was arraigned, following the in
dictment by the grand jury several
days ago, that the jury had expressed
some doubt as to whether Mesquetta
was guilty of first degree murder, and
that he might see fit to reduce the
charge before he enters his plea
Wednesday morning.
Doubt is expressed as to whether
q first-degree charge should be made
because it is thought the assault was
not premeditated. Leon Straus was
appointed counsel for the defendant
following the arraignment this morn

change in the rules OF previous con-
ventions made the third order of bus
mess of the convention the presenta-
ton of candidates for President in
stead of the adoption of the platform.
In other words, the committee on rules
recommended that the convention
choose the candidate for President be-
fore adopting the platform as done
heretofore. Having inside Information
that Mr.. Wilson was personally oppos-
ed to free sugar, / supported this
change in the order of business in the
hope that Wilson would obtain the
nomination, in which event the elimf-
nation of free sugar plank would be
a foregone conclusion. as the standard
bearer of the party would have consid-
cradle influence in the construction of
the platform. This conclusion on my
part was borne out by subsequent
events. This rule will also make it
impossible for the presidential nominee
to hold joint debates with the platform,
as has been the unfortunate situation
in previous campaigns"

LENNOX PREDICTS
TOURIST TRAVEL

Imbued with the belief that a great
tourist travel to Hawaii in the fuure
is assured, John Lennox. president
and manager of the Sachs Dry Goods
Co., returned this morning by the
Sierra from pleasure and buying trip
t.. the States. Presentation OF the
Bird Of Paradise" play, Dukes swim,
ming feats, and the general distribu-
ton of printed matter by the promo
ton Committee, are the three causes
he gives for his opinion.
Hawaii is no longer somewhere out
on the China coast in peoples minds,
says Mr.. Lennox. ''Indeed( il is
known that it is easily accessible to
particular noticeable. Formerly on
trips to the coast, one often had to ex-
plain the geographical location of the
Islands. This time II was different
account for the change Ia the publ
city secured from the Bird of Para
disc play, Dukes SHINING ard the
general wide distribution of promo.
ton literature. As result of all this
/ look for much travel to Honolulu IN
the next few years"
Everywhere one finds literature
about the Islands, and everywhere Ile
meets people who state their inten.
ton of visiting Hawaii. This is true
as regards people In New York, or the
Colorado summer resorts, where |
spent some weeks, as well as in Cali
fornia."
Speaking of the presidential politl.
cal situation, Mr.. Lennox's comment
was confined to the statement, lit is
chaotic" AS to his personal opinion
or the results in November he refused
to be quoted, but added to his first re
mark, that there were lots Of Roose-
welt supporters in Colorado OF
course in California

as / did pleasant one. was in New
York just at the right time to make
fall purchases and bought all the
stock needed for he store up until the

goods which purchased have already
