il. Williams is quite right in feeling that the
territory is allowing an unusual opportunity to
slip in not purchasing his remarkable collection
of photographs and plates of the royal families
This collection ought by all means to be in pos
session of the territory and if it is at all possible
to appropriate the 81 600 asked for the gallery
the money would be well spent.

energetic city has undertaken. Mr. Hogaboonl
takes the unimpeaehable stand that San Diego
merits attention from Hawaii, and he should re-
lceiye full and fair consideration from the legs-
lature now in session.
The Star Bulletin believes and has so ex-
pressed itself, that Hawaii should exhibit at San
Diego as we'll as at San Francisco For a com
Iparatively small amount of money, $25,0O0 or
$50, 900, this territory can make an exhibit at
San Diego that will be very we'll worth while 1t
is certain that several large business firms will
find it to their interest to make displays of island
industries at San Diego. The point is that Ha
wai needs all the publicity possible,a lat San Diego

forth its gorgeous exploitation.
There is room for both expositions. Hawails

ELkS' ENTERTAINMENT
 MAKES GREAT HIT

! The keen anticipation of pleasure on the part of Young America was | fully realized at the program rendered by the local order of Elks in Elks' hall last night From the sound of the gong, as it were, to the drop of the curtain, there was a continual babel of happy voices.
 Tickets were passed to the children as they entered. No doubt some of those who went under the fence'' shaved the fourteen limit very closely, but the merry twinkle in the yes of the doorkeepers was blind to any shortcomings, for just inside of the doorway, near the center of the large hall. stood a large Christmas tree, ringed with packages of presents, all together too inviting to permit of the possibility of being kept without for the sake of a few months in age. But when some of the really "old boys" and "old girls" tried to make out that they were just fourteen, with the kid dies" looking on in grim disapproval, the doorkeepers refused them tickets.
 The decorations were in keeping with the occasion. There was a squeal of childish delight when the prototypes of the funny picture page circled the Christmas tree to the music of the Pied Piper. The elder people enjoyed the excellent music of the orchestra on the stage. but the children were too busy babbling forth the music of their own happy hearts to hear anything else. And when the presents were handed out! That was the acme-the climax, in fact,-of joy unadulterated.
 A fiash-light picture was taken by Winter & Pond of the scene.

RED GLARE IN SKY
 LOOKED DANGEROUS
--O-o-


 The cry of fire, people running in punches and a cloud of black smoke, with a red glare in the center which seemed to be right over the rear of the Cain Hotel, had a decidedly alarm ing effect last evening when viewed from Front street.
 It turned out to be a small frame shack on the sidehill to the rear of the Alaska hotel. It was occupied by two painters who were patching. The gas in the coal stove exploded and they ran outside. The place made merry blaze with the sparks flying rather dangerously near adjoining buildings, until the volunteer fremen reached there with hose, after which the fire was quickly extinguished.
 The house belonged to Mrs. John Prior and was destroyed. The ten ants lost their effects.
