Here's Newest Way of
Evading the "Dry" Law

BRIDGEvILLE. Del. July B.-In
buying whisky in dry territory the
buyer may be perfectly satisfied that
the seller has devised a way to get the
liquor safely to his customers. but an
old colored man around Bridseville
has invented the latest and best
method of marketing the commodity.
A stranger wanted a quart Of whisky
and stopped the colored man to ask him
how to get It, The old fellow said he
had none. but he might be able to get
some for a dollar. With the money
handed over the stranger wanted pro-
lection from the loss OF the dollar so
the colored man handed him q box of
shoes which he had been carrying under
his arms to keep until he came back.
Time passed and no colored man with
whisky came. Impatiently the stranger
opened the box of shoes to see II they
were worth the dollar from which he
had parted. when. behold. his quest was
over. a quart of whisky reposed In the
box,

LIFE TOO QUIET

Hawaii must offer more high class
evening entertainments il IL would
remain the Paradise of the Pacific in
the eyes OF her visitors She must
give her tourists something to do at
night Or she will lose the attractive
ness Of a veritable Monte Carlo
minus tie gambling"
This is a statement made to the
Star-BuIletin toGay by one Of the
islands prominent yisitor-boosters
who is here for the first time and
who promises to come again. The
visitor is Sam Rosenberg, New
York conmerc al man who is said u
be che of the highest salaried travel
ing men in the United States.
Rosenberg is here in party OF
six, none of wlom have been here be-
fore. excepting !. G. Cohn. The 9TH
ers are Joel Spitz and Jay Obendorf,
Chicago: Harry Schwartz and Joe E.
Grotta, New York. Thes jovial sales
man says the natural beauties Of Ho-
nolulu and vicinity cannot be bettered
but that the nights are too dull for
him.
There are people right here now
who are going, to Palm Beach next
year because it is so quiet here every
night, lie says sincerely. Il do not
mean that there should be gambling
and hilarity, necessarily, but rather
some kind of hieh-class features such
as a real good theater with Hawaiian
musicians and stunts in large and
variegated numbers. Visitors who have
nothing else to do dislike to face
every "a hours an empty evening
Heinie's and the roof garden are all
well enough so tar as they go but they
are far from sufficient Many people
care little for such entertainment"
Rosenberg paid handsome COM
pliment to the cuisine of the Moana
hotel by saying that he had encircled
the globe but lad never found better
food or service than in the big din
ing room out over the waves.
