Councilman Thomson called on Mr.,
Hopkins today to explain TO him why
he had introduced the resolution, Mr.,
Hopkins told Councilman Thomson how
he came to furnish Mayor Woodward
with the brief He gave the opinion
about moral obligation contracts to a
corporation some ten years ago. When
Mayor Woodward consulted Mr.. Hop
,kins about the legality of the crema d
tory contract. he furnished the mayor
with a copy OF this old brief brought
down TO date. Mr. Hopkins said he had
never seen the mayors message until it
appeared in the newspapers,
Comptroller Goldsmith said today
that unless council gave him specific
orders not TO draw any more checks on
account OF the budget being held up, he
would continue to draw warrants for
pay rolls and other expenses Of the
government, to be signed by the mayor.
Unless some of the chairmen Of the
council committees refuse to approve
warrants all expenses of the city gov
eminent will be paid as usual despite
the ruling of City Attorney Mayson.

THE CONFESSIONS OF A WIFE
THE ART OF LOVING

it: When Dick kisses me think
just as he does! feel as though only
the present, with its living joys and
problems, was worth thinking about.
After you are married, life looms so
much bigger than literature and the
art of loving seems the only art
worth learning.
Dick is very fond of nature, and on
our way to the Clermont, where we
went in hanson cab, because 1
wanted to ride in one of those old
fashioned vehicles, he filled his lungs
with the clear morning air and said:
Say, Margie, isn't this better than
sitting in an old musty church,"
The woods were Gods first tenn
ples,' ! quoted softly, for we were
driving under an archway of eIms.
yes, that's it" almost whispered
Dick as he put his hand over mine;
that is the way feel about it. I
don't want you to think, dear, that 1
have no sentiment, because l can't be
sentimental. The thing l like best
about you, sweetheart, is your ideal
ity and real goodness. I'm no saint,
Margie, and I've often thought since
we have been married that if we have
any kids ! want them to be Just like
their mother"
Just then we arrived at the Cler-
mont Inn, where could not eat any
of the beefsteak which Dick ordered,
for all the time my heart was repeat
ing over and over again the dear
words that Dick had just been saying
to me.

to go to one of the big churches, but
Dick proposed that we take a ride up
through Central Park and stop at the
Clermont Inn to breakfast instead.
1 find that when it comes to doing
things" l usually do the ones that
Dick proposes. Not for one moment
do l think am a martyr in doing
them, but it shows me that, while l
like to do the thing Dick likes, he
seldom thinks he would find any fun
in doing the thing like.
Yesterday l proposed going to the
Metropolitan Art Museum, and Dick
said: Great Scott, Madge, what's
the good of using up our time looking
at the work of a lot of men and wo-
men, the most of whom are dead?
Yves alive, Madge, and on our honey
moon and there's something doing on
the great white way every minute.
We may miss some live thing on
Broadway and the pictures will keep.
Time enough to look at them when
we are too old to do anything but
think and dream"
But, DICK, SAID, L feel as
though ought to see those pictures.
I'd hate to have some one ask me if
l had seen Rosa Bonheur's Horse
Fair or some other famous painting
that know is hanging up there and
have to answer No."
There you go again, Mrs. School
teacher" said Dick. We're not out
for an educational trip now, but for
a good time"

Dick, with a kiss, and really l think

In the three days that followed,
Skeene learned to talk to himself.
When he did this he forgot that he
had killed Sebato: after a while he
forgot it altogether.
When the August afternoons were
ablaze with brazen sunlight and the
lake glistened like a sheet of steel,
Skeen sprawled on log in the shade
and watched the great blue herons.
The great belted-kingfshers knew
him, the sheldrake, stringing along
the creek at evening, turned their
bright eyes to his.
The swift water of the Little Mis-
cry gave him a trout to every set
line. On the Little Misery deer
swarm at evening, and he had meat
for the price of a cartridge.
The white nights of August
brought that vague unrest that all
forest creatures feel. AS the moon
waned, the forest world stirred; its
attitude was expectant; it waited.
An Impotence, almost sadness
fell upon Skene. And with sadness
came fear. He covered his lean-to
and built a smoke-hole through
which blue haze rose in the calm
morning air. But the steam-hole of
a beavers house might be more easily
located than the chimney of Skeene's
hut.

lay. A slender fillet of blood hung in
the water, floating like a red string.
Bring them settin'- poles" said
the sheriff soberly.
They gave Skeene little peace for
two months. Week after week
string of canoes passed the swift
water under the first and second
wing-dams, disembarking a file of
rifemen. Week after week the dis
tant flash of paddle startled the
deer at sunrise among the lily-pads.
Once they saw Skeene for mo-
ment' standing in the stern of his
canoe. The canoe lay at the mouth
of the Little Misery, that dead stretch
of water and dead-fall, winding
through the bog to the southwark.
They gave chase, trailing Skeene's
canoe by the wake bubbles until they
ran plump into quick water.
But the Little Misery is a strange
stream draining strange land, and
there, in that maze of cuts and chan
nels, of "logans" and quick water, of
DIV amp, oAOolJ oCuSC 1ho opOCII al
ranks of dead trees, towering above
swale and deadwood, they stood no
chance.
And so they hunted Skeene at twi-
light, at dusk of morning, at high
noon, from the Northeast Garry to
the Northwest Garry, from the West
Branch to Seboomook, from Portage
to Lily Bay, and through a hundred
miles OF lake and stream, up and
down, up and down. In August they
gave up the chase.
That evening Skeene stood on |
wind-fall in the depths of the Little |
Misery and watched three canoes
file out of the discharge and glide in
to Moose River. The next morning |
he started a lean-to on the ridge |
back of the Little Misery, and the |
sharp crack and thwack of his axe |
rang out over Red Lake.

After Stanford Series Three.
Teams Will Be in the Field
tor Extended Schedule

There is a probability that when the
six-game series against Stanford is
completed, Saturday baseball at Moi.
I'LL field will be continued for the re.
mainder of sthe season. Players and
fans alike are keen for a Saturday
league, and already plans have been
laid for its formation.
According to the present scheme, il
VIII be three-cornered series be-
tween the teams that are to go up
against the California collegians.
These teams are the PIinahou Athletic
Club. the st. Louis Alumni and the All.
Service. Lieutenant Applin, Of the
Coast Defense team, is looking after
the interests Of. the All-Service aggre-
cation. and he plans to draw from Fort
Shafter as well as from the coast ar
tillery posts. in getting up a fast SOL
dier aggregation.
With three-team league, each
team would play two consecutive Sat
urdays. and lay of one, while the fans
would have continuous Saturday ball
at Moiliili. Another suggestion is that
a fourth team be admitted, and a
sesen-inning double header be played
every week, but this scheme doesn't
appeal to A. L. Castle, captain of the
Punahous. and one OF the prime NOV
ers for the new league, nor do the
majority of players regard it with IA
for. Three good teams, and one full
game every Saturday. is more to the
liking Of the fans. toe.
Hawsiis Have Chance.
Although the Oahu League mana.
gers are considering playing on the
postponed games, which are scheduled
for July 13, there is a good chance
that these will be called on at the
eleventh hour. unless necessary to de-
eide the first series. II called on.
there viii be no Sunday conflict With
the Moiliili dates.
However, there Is fighting chance
that the postponed games, or rather
one Of them, will be necessary to de-
termine the winner of the first series.
Next Sunday the Stars play the Por.

the Asahis. Should the Stars and Ha-
walls both win their games. then. II
the Coast Defense beat the Portu-
guese In the postponed game. Portu-
euese and HaWaiis would be tied. for

This would mean an additional series.

going now, they look like sure winners
