taht incident in the story. The first
kiss which is the foreruuner to many
others. is stolen at a masked ball by
Owen Moore He is so captiyated by
the sweetness and warmth thereof
that he sets to find the fissee, who
escapes after the brief instant of
bliss
In his feverish efforts to duplicate
the exact application which SO thrilled
him, he entices every girl, who even
remotely resembles his first victim to
the far corners of the garden and the
conservatory where he makes bold to
taste tic nectar of her lips But
they are all marblesquc in their cold

NON-COMBATANTS

Members of the National party in

A meeting will be held early next
week to form some plan to relieve the
suffering of the people of those prov

Word from Shanghai states that
Yuan intends sending an army from
Hupeh to oppose the Revolutionary
party, and local Chinese fear that a
fierce battle will ensne between the
opposing troops. Inasmuch as the war
funds will be raised in China and in
California to a great extent. local
members of the National party feel
that something must be done for the
noncombatants.

Children are probably brighterto-day
than a generation ago-but are they
strongerl That's a grave question.
So many pinched faces, dulled eyes
and languid feelings make US wonder
if they viii ever grow into robust,
healthy men and women.
If your children catch colds easily,
are tired when rising, lack healthy
color, or find studies difficult, give
them SCOTS Emulsion for one month
to enrich their blood and restore the
body-forces to healthy action.
SCOTS Emulsion is used in private
schools. 1t is not "patent medicine,
simply highly concentrated oil-food,
without alcohol or harmful drugs. 1t

fits lungs and strengthens the system.

GRAND JURORS

L, AROUND OAHU

To inspect roads and school houses
on this island and to attend to vari-
GUS other matters falling within their
official duties, the members of the
territorial grand jury left Honolulu for
a tour of Oahu early this morning and
were to return to the city this even
ing.
II is believed that the findings OF
the trip may be included in the grand
jury's annual report which, it is un.
derstood, will be presented to Cir
cult Judge Ashford at 10 O'Clock to-
morrow morning. The report is pur-
ported to be about 100 pages in length
and to contain a full record of the tri.
ybunal's work during the u months
which il has been in existence.
The grand jurors met at 2 O'Clock
yesterday afternoon for a brief SEES
sion No indictments were returned
although il is understood that a case
involving cutting scrape at Koolau
last month was investigated.

When the commissioners returned,
they stated in Honolulu that five

open the new steamship line. Con-
sui Woohuan's information yesterday
gives no details regarding this, but
it is expected that before long the

In this connection it is emphasized
that the chartering of the former Pa.

do with this company. The China was

Says Voluntary Enlistment Puts
: Heavy Burden on the Best
Class of Citizens

Speaking in Cooke hall at the Y ",
c. A. on The Law OF Military Ser
vice, Judge Sanford B. Dole last night
outlined his ideas OF what. the duty
OF citizens is in regard to military ser
vice, one OF his most emphatic con
illusions being that there is no privi-
legged class in the United States and
hence the right and duty of joining the
militia Tor national defense is incum-
bent upon every male citizen
Judge Dole said il was the inherent
right Of the government to exact mill
taTy service from every able-bodied
male citizen He declared compulsory
service is fair and that volunteer en-
listment places the burden on the
finer class of men that is prompt to
respond TO danger.
Some impressive extracts from
Judge Dole's address are as follows:
Quotes Revised Statutes.
After constitutional recognition of
the right and duty of the state to pro-
vide for the common defense, the most
important legislation bearing on the
subject is to be found in section 1925
of the Revised Statutes of the United
States. "-.~ F.. e..
=" Every able bodied male citizen OF
the respective states, resident therein
who is OF the age OF Is years. and I'M

burden fall-upon class of citizens,

earners, those who may be unprofes-

Fellow Citizens of Pickens County:

merits of my opponents, but on the fol-
lowing grounds:
l. The state or county should allow
each thief so much per day until he has
reimbursed the property taken or de-
stroyed by him; then he should serve
his given sentence with the state or
county.
2. stand for an increased pension for
old soldiers.
8. Seeing that the present game law
is in reality merely statute, 1 stand
for the repeating of said law, or to so
amend it that it will serve it's purpose.
(My amendment will be explained on
the stump.)
a. stand for the amending of the
Jim Crow law, making it unlawful for
any white person or persons to teach in
any colored school, as it is today unlaw-
full for.any negro to teach in white
school.
S. stand for the adoption of the

6. stand for better roads on a more
economical maintenance plan; the estab-
lishment of state highway commits

There are numerous other needs that
