School Boys.
Loses Its Zoo
and Lads Mourn.
Animals Are Disbanded Because
Honey Bear Suddenly Ac-
quired Carnivorous Appetite

Sadness and sorrow have descended
upon the students Of the Honolulu
School for Boys on account of the in
stitutiOn relinquishing its course In
Animated Zoology. A stern edict has
gone forth that the zoo established at
the military academy be disbanded and
prsa 1Mipor therefore no longer dis
pnrtR himself upon the campus as of
yore
Brnin began to bring upon himself
the diAfavOr Of the powers that be
some time ago when he developed an
affection for young turkeys. Spurning
the diet of honey and rice with which
the Bearward of the school tried TO be-
guile him from mourning his departed
liberty, he has taken to foraging for
himself and from the casual capture
of q yOung poult he has progressed on
the downward path Of dissipation I'M
til last week he devOured three mature
gobblers, among which was the state
lY and venerable father of the flock
himself.
Other charges of more questionable
nature have been laid to his door
speh, for instance, as an innocent &C.
lestial, having had propelled at him
ont OF the murky darkness of the night
On, animated furry rug, from which the
bear had thOughtless not yet been
removed. However innocent and affec.
tionate the gambols of such an appari
ton, its effect upon the nerves has not
been conducive to orderly and quiet
living, but has been responsible for the
record of the ffty-yard dash being
consid erably lowered on more occasions
than one.
Bruin is said to have first graduated
from u vegetarian diet on his voyage
t. this PaciRc Paradise. While being
transshipped at Singapore, he fell in
to the bounding waves and in spite of
the urging of Gen. Samuel l. johnson
to the assembled coolies to rescue his
ret from q watery grave, no one could
be prevailed upon to make the attempt.
In this quandaTy the intrepid general
himself plunged in, and Bruin repaid
his kindness by seizing his rescuer 3
right hand in his teeth and hanging
thereon until terra frma was safely
reached.
! Together with Bruin the two pet
monkeys of the sehoal-Dido and So
lambo-have fallen from grace as their
depredatiOns also were becoming a by
word in the respectable neighborhoOd
from which they hail.
, Fortunately the specimens of the
school 700 have not had to GO long
without a home, and they may now be
seen grazing the cages in ,Kapiolani
Park--the school having made them
over pro bono publico to the commits
siOners.

Live To Learn
"SeVen years ago the Japanese lack
ed knowledge and reason; their sense
was at fault and they could not reprrss
their feelings. The arguments venti-
lated in the press were radical and pro
mQteh agitation and strife. SeveA
years have changed all this. The press
discussed the same question calmly and
cautioned moderation. They referred
to the great failure and the results are
TO be seen today. The calm and gentle
manly attitude shown by the japanese
now has borne good and healthy fruit.
1T has been said that the prompt
action taken by the planters ut this
time was not the result of any fear
OF rumored Japanese strikes or antici
patton Of disturbances of any kind, and
we believe that this is true.
THE Japanese, this time, have Ger
tainly shown themselves wise. They
have improved in the way Of going
after what they wanted. knowledge
and sense well used will never bring
harm to any one and this is Il case
very much in point.
Japanese View Of Natural Law
1--WE believe that the planters well
understand the natural law, which is
usually the case, the simple. minded
people who rage when expressing
their feelings are easier to control and
manage than those who are calm in
mind and rePress their feelings with
reason. IN this respect we rather favor
the opinion Of our fellow. countrymen
who show their optimism over what the
final decision of the planters will be. "
The Hawaii HOchi failed to touch on
the question last Friday and Saturday
editorially. but discuss the situation
emPhutically in its news columns aAd

Z With pack of cards and a little
cleverness in translating meanings to
suit each Individual case you can have
no end of fun telling the fortunes OF
your friends. Don't you like to have
your fortune told? Doesn't every one
else that you know? can't think
Of anything that is more fascinating
to most people than TO be told what
will happen in the future. If you want
to make your stock Of popularity go
up 100 per cent learn how to tell for
tunes.
One Of the most popular methods
of fortune telling by CARDS is this:
For it you need only firrty-two cards.
Do not use the plain cards under sew
en- of each suit. Since the meaning
Of a card is different If it is reversed,
you will have to mark your pack with
an x on one end of each card, so that
you can tell readily whether the card
is right side UP or reversed. These
marks should be made before the
pack is used, and the pack should be
kept for nothing but fortune telling
You know that everything must be
Just 30 II you're going to make sue
cess with occult things-everybody
knows that. There's no fun If you
don't get dreadfully serious about 1t.
Now for the meaning Of the indi-

ness will be assured by the presence
Of the eight of hearts and the eight
OF clubs.
The ace of diamonds and the ten
of hearts also foretell wedding bells.
The seven Of spades. with court
card, betrays the existence OF false
friend.
The eight and five Of spades To-
gether tell Of jealousy that VIII ma
vent in malicious revenge.
The king of hearts with the nine OF
Of hearts means fucls IL love.
The nine OF clubs with the 1ine Of
hearts is indicative Of affairs con-
nected with will likely to- oe1eht
the inquirer. !,
The queen Of spades, accompanied
by the jack Of spades, is symbolical
of woman who is hostile and dan
gerous. :,
When a number of court cards FALL
together it is a sign Of hospitality,
good times and gaiety.
Two red tens foretell a marriage.
Two red elghts promise new clothes.
II you are not married you may
choose cards to represent your friends
and acquaintance according to their
compilations. II yOu are married you
must choose the king or queen OF your
own suit to represent your husband
or your wife. For instance, if,you are
light and your husband has black hair
YOU must choose the king and queen
Of hearts to represent you and your
husband.
The best way to do II you want to
learn how to tell fortunes is to write
these INSTRUCTIONS on a pack OF cards
learn the meanings OF the combina-
tons Of cards, and not try to remem-
Der the meaning Of each card until
you have become accustomed to them,
When everything is ready have tie
person whose fortune you are telling
shuttle the cards and cut them with
the left hand. You should use the left
because IT is more intimately con-
.lected with the heart than the right
After the cut the top card OF the low
er pack and bottom card Of the up
per pack should be laid aside for a
surprise. The three packs should then
be placed together and dealt out into
three equal packs, representing the
past, the present and the future.
Then proceed with your reading OF
the cards. If you don't find yourself
much more popular person with all
OF your frlends-but you will, l know.
