.SCHDULE OF
7. K. K. COMP ANY
IS REARRANGED

The big Toyo Kisen Kaisha liner
Shinyo Maru, that sailed from Homo
lulu for San Francisco at nine O'Clock
this morning taking small delegation
of lay-over passengers, it is believed
will again reach this port on i new
and more satisfactory schedule. The
addition of the intermediate liner
Hongkong Maru to the trans-Pacific
fleet has necessitated rearrange-
ment of the joint Pacific Mail and
Toyo Kisen Kaisha schedule. Under
the present arrangement Saturday is
the usual sailing day from San Fran
cisco, with an occasional departure
on Friday Under the new schedule
sailings are arranged without refer
ence to the day of the week. In the
course of the year every day except
Sunday has its turn as sailing day
from the Coast port.
The Hongkong will leave Yokohama
July 10 and is due here July %. The
disturbance caused by its injection
into the schedule will be felt. sooner
than that The Tenyo Maru, scheduled
to leave Sa1 Francisco May II. was
dispatched May 16 The Shinyo Maru
VIII leave the Coast june 4 instead of
june Z and the Chiyo's July sailing
has been charged to July l.
There VIII i" changes affecting Pa
cific Mail Gena~tures also. The new
schedule is expected to arrive here
in a few days. On the new schedule
place for the Hongkong Maru has
been found between the Persia and
ihe Korea hut lhe ITongkong will not
find its proDer location until after its
departure from the Coast. August u,
wnen il. will sail in company with the
Korean.

GENERAL MARIO MEN0CAL
Is NOW CHIEF EXECUTIVE
OF THE REPUBLIC

The Inauguration OF General Mario
Menocal as president of Cuba, which
event is scheduled to take place to-
day, will mean another holiday and
general temporary suspension of
grinding on the part of the. sugar
plantations. 1t is probable that a
number of the smaller ~centrals which
are reported to be working at a loss
will take advantage of the event and
suspend for the season on account of
the low value of sugar and the con-
sequent poor returns for grinding.
Mrs. Menocal, the new first lady of
the land, is woman possessing
many accomplishments and charms.

The Happy Man.

The happiest man in the world is
the common, every day chap who
makes his own living, pays his own
bills and has the respect of his neigh
bors. He saves a little money as he
goes along, but doesn't try to get
corner on his local output, and he is
not a slave to ambition or society
He never expects to wear out his
trousers in the senate, and when he
glides ont of bed in the morning he
never wastes any time trying to pick
out the right tint of socks, suspen-
ders and necktie that will blend with
the general effect.
He only wears a high collar when
he feels like it, and when his pet
corn begins to jump, he jerks out his
knife and cuts four-inch cash in
the side of his shoe and nothing is
said about it in the local paper. He
never has to set up at night to poul-
tice his conscience. He believes in
the doctrine of live and let live.

GOOD ROADS.

The pictures shown at Chautauqua
tabernacle Thursday night by Sam
Hill forcefully illustrated what good
roads accomplish. What one horse
pulls on a level road it takes two to
pull on 2 per cent grade, three
on a 3 per cent grade, four on a 4
per cent grade, six on a to 10 per
cent grade, and nine on a Is per
cent grade. The cost per ton trans
porting the same load is so cents
on level ground, rs cents on a 2 per
cent grade, and the cost rising with
the grade until it costs $3.50 on a
Is per cent grade. The load capac-
ity of a road is determined by it's
worst mudhole.
The day of road scratching and
temporary road patching is past.
The demand now is for permanently
constructed highways. In times past
the best roads were to be found in
the neighborhoods where the road
officers lived now everybody con-
cedes that road construction must be
prosecuted Systematically by first
building main arteries and then lat
erals, and to build so that they will
not be worn out by the time the sys-
tenn is completed. 1t takes money
to do that, but it is worth the mon
ey. The proposed bond issue is to
build the permanent main artery.
Every person in the county should
be interested enough in it to vote
for the bonds.

How 1t Was Done.

The favorite game of the southern
negro is shooting craps" A negro
will "shoot" away anything from the
clothes on his back to the meal on
his table, but shooting" for pros
poets is new phase.
A capitalist was the guest OF a
southern hotel, and the first night
he gave his waiter a 50-cent tip. At
breakfast the waiter could not do
enough for him, and he tipped him
another SO cents. At lunch he had
new waiter. The capitalist said
nothing, but when the same new
waiter served him at dinner that
evening, he asked
Sam, where's the boy l had yes
terday?"
Sam hung his head. "He amt at
dis table no mo-, boss"
Il know that, but why was he
moved? l liked him"
Sam looked frightened, but he
stood his ground. 'It was like dis,
boss. After breakfas' dis mornin'
we shot craps FOR dat fust SO cents
you give him, and l won dat; den
we shot for dat second SO cents you
give him, and won dat; den when
his money was all gone, we shot for
to wait on you, and won you. >

THE BEST TIME OF LIFE.

Every little while there GENES to
the surface an enthusiast with a
dream like that which lured the
Spaniards when America was young
the dream of perpetual youth. The
latest was man who promised him
self, by reason of a certain regime of
diet and exercise, a life span of at
least 200 years, with sneakirg hope
of eternity.
Far be it from us to belittle the
importance of living carefully and
long. But why put so much empha-
sissis on youth, as if only the morn
ing of life were worth living?
Don't you suppose that white
bearded grandpa, snoozing on the
porch in the shade, or watching the
infants play, has as much fun out of
life as the giddiest lad or maiden?
To be sure, it's of a different kind,
which happily is one of natures ways
of insuring interesting variety. But,
his rough work done, as the sun
slowly goes to meet the far horizon,
he lives anew in the young life about
him and, out of passions ashes,
builds ripe philosophy.
Every time in life is a good time
to be alive, for always you can feel,
see and learn. We're not at all con-
vinced that ripe old age isn't the best
estate of all; for then the heart is
mellowed, the mind matured and the
spirit seasoned, while in the treasury
of memory are stored innumerable
joys, the better for the enchantment
which distance lends.
