Surprise for Mother.

A Chicago school teacher tells with
great gusto of the shrewd little col
ored brother" who once arrived at
school provided with most unusual
excuse for hardness. Il couldn't help
bein' late, please, teacher" he bubbled
shrilly. "Somepin happened to us las
night My NAV, size went ter bed wit
headache, and when she wakes up
dis mornin', dere's two little quins
(twins) one on each side oh her, and
she don know muffin bout 'em tell

shall love me-" he said tu himself
with firm setting OF the lips.
The week end brought the bride and
groom and surprise Kitty's relatives
had been planning. This vas the pres
entation of handsome pair of saddle
horses to the newly married couple
with a third beautiful mount for
Doris. II had long been Gilbert's
habit to take daily gallon, and it be
came regular custom for the four
young people to enjoy q morning ride
together.
Gilbert continued his efforts to touch
the affections of the little cousin. but
at times he almost despaired of ever
attaining the desire of his heart
One Haorning in early September the
four started on their usual ride. choos-
ing a beautiful path through the
woods. Doris and Gilbert rode in ad-
vance of the others. and after canter-
ing for some distance under the dense
shade of the massive oaks they slowed
down.
Suddenly at the left side of the
road ahead of Doris there appeared q
giant hound with broken chain dan
CLING from his collar. He was fierce
looking animal, and his swift and 81.
lent coming had startled them. In
.stanhy he made spring at the neck
of Doris horse. and the frightened
beast reared backward. Doris was a
good rider and retained her seat. but
as her horses fore feet touched the
ground again the hound made a saw
age leap, and this time fastened his
fangs In the shoulder of the animal,
Gilbert sprang to the ground and
brought down che handle of his heavy
hunting crop with all his strength
upon the hounds head. The crushing
blow dazed the brute, and he looos.
ened his hold. Then he made fero-
cious spring for Gilbert's throat.
"Oh, Gilbert, GILBERT"
1t was the first time Doris had ever
called his name, and her love spoke
In the cry. 1t seemed to give Gilbert
superhuman strength. for as the
hound leaped he struck 1t again with
the loaded crop square on It's massive
head; the blow crushed through into
its brain. and the furious monster
dropped at his feet, lifeless,
1t was a very thankful but very
nerve-shaken party of four that turned
homeward. The wound which the
hounds teeth had given to Doris
horse was bleeding freely, and the ami
NAL was trembling from shock. Doris
dismounted and Gilbert placed her
upon his own mount, leading her
wounded one.
Gilbert, you are brave man." said
Frank Whiting, as they started home
ward. I'VE all owe you debt of graf
itude for acting SO promptly and so
WE'LL"
Indeed l thank you for my life"
said Doris, eagerly.
Il did only what you would have
done had you been nearest, Frank.
And | am sorry, Miss Lorimer, that |
was not In time to save your horse
from all harm, though | think the
wound is only slight one. and will

Gilbert received very different an.

pealed to Doris for her love.

MAKES "a HOURS
A Days WORK

An author Of good repute sat down
recently and dashed of book On how
to live on - hours a day Perhaps
the book was considered complete I'M
til last night at the L.eeting Of the.
beard Of supervisors, when 4 naw and
highly important chapter To * was
suggested by. a petition fled by John
Mitchell, who has been Waterman
at the quarry and who has solved the
problem Of how to work for 81 hours
every day.
The discovery of how tp nut IN al
ONES time working has nPt been pat
ented. or copyrighted, or whatever one
does in such a case to keen the secret
mis- onn. hut all that Mitchell asked
the board in his petition was remuanr-
alton for his uninterrupted Waterman,
ship Of the stones Of the quarry. which
has continued. he says. day in and
dav GU with the nights thrown in fer
SCod measure.
But somehew or other, Supervisor
Petric did not favorahlv recommend
the petition. so Mitchell's q hour n
day shift may be rewarded with no adj
dintional compensation.
He candidly admits that in the he
ginning he was not opposed to sleep,
believing il to he a successful pastime,
hut that circumstances alter every
thing. and in this case they altered
his youthful habit Of sleeping, so he
lived on 81 hours Of work day.
He states that no one was at the
quarry to relieve him, and that he
would be guilty of malfeasance of his
flduciarv trust if he left the rocks un-
watched. Then. again, even when he
did decide to let the quarry watch it
self, stones kept falling on his hut,
which made it impossible for him 70
enjoy the pastinle Of steep.
That is the story o. how Mitchell
hit unon the secret of living without
sleeping. Once in a while, he admits,
assured that the rocks wore safe, he
retired under a cccoanut tree, where
he dozed awhile. Put he had already
nroyed that chanter on how to work

attack of heart failure, were held

the past eleven years, he had labored
in the capacity of superintendent
Crowded to the doors with persons
in every stage of life, ranging from
the denizens of the Kakaako district
to influential business men and min
listers, the little mission house pre-
scented an eloquent tribute to the
worth of the earnest social worker.
Rich masses of floral tributes COW
cred the casket, while an abundance
of flowers were massed about the
hall. When the sweet voices of the
little children, to whom the good man
had been in some cases more than
father, rose in singing familia:
sacred melodies, there was scarcely
a dry eye in the assembl2ge.N The
services at the mission were conduct
ed by Rev. Dr. Dorenus Scudder, who
paid splendid tribute to him who
had been an intimate friend and fell
low worker in the uplift of humanity.
Four members of the local post of
the g. A. r., who. with Mr.. Rider, had
horne arms in the defense of the ma
ton. and two other intimate friends

IMPROVE Yard
OF SCHOOL

While the dust of Fort street, the
complaint of many merchants, blew
figuratively blew, be it added-about
the chamber of the supervisors last
night, the city fathers stopped to
listen to the needs Of the Liliuokalanl
school at kaimuki, as presented by
T. M. Church, of the Improvement
club of that district. And before 1t
was finally settled that the yards of
the school should be put in better con-
dition, the dust of Fort street was
forgotten.
The Improvement is planned to be
done by using prison labor and 2 part
of the school appropriation still avail
able. Treasurer Mccarthy stated that
a considerable sum of the appropria-
ton was still on hand.
The plea of Church for the improv-
ing of tne school yards represented
them to be ill-kept and entirely out
of keeping with the school which he
described as being the most beautiful
in the territory.
The road committee, appointed as
a special committee, will confer with
High Sheriff Henry regarding the OBJ
Of prison labor, and will also
settle the transportation problem.
Church was assured that the school
yards would be repaired.

HAYES LEADS FIGHT
FOR DUTY ON SUGAR

Observation-Disclosures debate
in the house on the Democratic tariff
revision bill, Representative Oscar w.
Underwood of Alabama, the majority
leader predicted great relief for the
nation through the passage of the
pending bill.
Representative Augustus P. Gard
ner of Massachusetts voiced Republi-
can skepticism for the country's fu-
ture under such tariff system, and
Representative Clyde Kelly of Penn
sylvania expressed the opposition of
the new Progressive party to ali
tariff bills framed under the present
system.
Representative Hayes of California
declared that free sugar meant de-
struction of the beet sugar industry
without any substantial benefit to
the consumers of sugar. He said the
cutting of tariff on lemons would in
lure that industry and that the pro-
posed revision would ruin the olive
oil, beans and dried fruit industries
of California. turning the market for
these products over to foreigners.
Representative Curry of California
spoke along the same line.
Underwood, in outlining the bill
severely criticised the protective tar
if theory based on the difference in
cost of production at home and
abroad. and praised the competitive
tariff theory, declaring it would
strengthen American industry and
send American products into the
worlds markets
He denounced the raising of taxes
by the protective tariff as unjust, be-
