POET BELIEVES
FRUIT Is FOUND
"HIGH In PINES
Minna irving, in Poem in Les
lies Weekly, Intimates That
PineappIes Grow on Trees

That Pineapple Day has been sue
cess throughout United States is the
belief of the local members of the Ha-
wall Promotion Committee. In every
mail come letters from prominent citi-
zens who have been identified with the
promotion Of Pineapple Day. The big
day on November 10 had been given
large amount OF advance publicity,
and many congratulatory letters are
being received.
Congressman James A. Frear Of
Wisconsin writes stating that he has
the fondest memories OF the pineapple
spreads I'm Oahu and Maui. and says
that pineapple shall have prominent
place at the Frear table. John SLEIGH
er, editor Of Leslie's Weekly, states
in a letter that he hoped to be able
to come 70 Hawaii in February. He
also inclosed copy Of the poem writ.
ten by Minna Irving. which was dedi-
Gated to Pineapple Day, and published
In Leslie's Weekly.
Minna Irving seems to think pine
apples grow on trees-at least that
is the impression given by the last
two lines OF the second stanza Of the
following poem:
PINEAPPLE DAY
A part of the Garden Of Eden,
All lilac and emerald and rose,
Is set In the sapphire Pacific,
Tis the isle where the pineapple
grows
Hawaii. the crossways OF ocean,
With its beautiful harbor where
meet
The ships Of the world, seeking car
goes
OF pineapples juicy and sweet.
The wonderful apple that tempted
Poor Eve In the garden Of old,
Was pineapple luscious and fragrant,
And ripened to amber and gold.
And 10! ever since Mother Nature
Has protected it closely with spines
As warning to fingers covetous.
And hung Il high up in the pines.
From the coral-bound island republic
Where the song Of the surf never
dies,
TO thousands and thous1nls Of tables
In our land Of the changeable skies,
The pineapple comes Ii perfection,
And every appetite suits;
We therefore proclaim II and crown It
Forever the king Of fruits.

What Memory Is.

The correct way to increase the pro duetivity of the memory Is to link ey. cry new thing with an understood thought already in hand. Merely to menorize the Bible and thus to be able, parrotlike. to speak it "by heart" is not memory. Intellectually and emotionally to appreciate and under stand one psalm or proyerb is mem ory. To know where to put your fin ger on the right verse or passage Of the Bible on your table Is practical and useful recollection Dictionaries, directories, encyclopedias, indexes and reference books do the mechanical part for you. Reason, association. adaptability and the perception of re- lationships is better than much Latin and more Greek, however beautiful and instructive these may be in them selves.

Her wireless apparatus her bridge and upper works shot away. her tunnels pierced and her decks filtered with dead and dying she accomplished the feat vainly ut tempted by the ill-fated Armenian a week ago in the same waters.
 Like the latter vessel. she was la den with transport animals for the British army-a cargo of horses shipped from Montreal on June 2t Panic among the latter during and following the bombardment to which the Anglo-Galifornian was subjected added to the horror of the situation.
 The commander who brought her through the hail of shot, shell and ri file fire-Captain Parslow-paid for the achievement with his life. He remained on the bridge amid the in ferno until blown of by a shell. The OiilStl Wlo dSouIlcd HID pDSl iOuh his body with one arm and one leg shot away.

BOMB WRECKS ROOM IN CAPITOL BUILDING
OFFICIALS BELIEVE EXPLOSIVE WAS PLACED BY 4 CRANK
 WISHING SENSATION.
CLAIMS NO ONE INJURED
Superintendent Woods Examined the Structural Features of Building
 and Found No Damage.

Washington. A tremendous ex- plosion, believed to have been caused by some kind of bomb or internal na- chine, wrecked the public reception room on the east side of the capitol building. No one was injured.
 Officials believe that the explosive was placed by crank who desired to lowed in the room during the day and a timed machine might have been left without attracting attention.
 Superintendent Woods of the capi- tol building, summoned by panic stricken watchmen, made hurried investigation. then telephoned for an expert on explosives. Until the ex- pert has made his report no official statement will be made.
 Part of the ceiling and side walls huge mirror and crystal chandelier shattered and the doors blown open. One of the doors led into the offices of the vice president and is said not to have been opened in 70 years.
 The building had been closed since dark and there was no one in 1t bur the watchmen and telephone switch board operators. Watchman Jones, on the floor below at the east en- trance. said he was blown from his chair by the explosion.
 The report could be heard for a mile and in a few minutes crowd of excited people had gathered on the east plaza. Lights had been switched on and excited officials were rushing back and forth on two floors of thu great building.
 A strong odor permeated the build- ing. but no one seemed able to detect just what it was
 While some officials thought the ex- plosion was the work Of all irrespol.- sible crank others suggested that 1t might have been perpetrated by a person desiring to demonstrate disap- proval of some of the policies of the American government. It was appar- ent that there was no intent to .ie- stroy life, as it is generally known the room is empty at night
