The Three Philoso pher,.

For the first time in their lives
three genuine, simon-pure philos-
ophers went out riding In motor car.
After they had ridden about twenty
miles out in the country the car broke
down. Said the first philosopher: ~
have long wanted to study certain as
poets Of nature, and this affords me
the particular prospect most adj
mire." Said the second philosopher
Il observe there is'a farmhouse over
there where food can doubtless be OBJ
tained in sufficient quantities." Said
the third philosopher: II have long
wanted to be in a situation where,
without moving. sustenance would be
brought to me by one friend, while
the other discoursed on the beauties
Of nature."-Life.

Imitation Pearls.

Clever imitation perls have been
made by filling thin glass bulbs with q
solution of fish scale nacre. Another
method is to coat the inside of the
glass bulbs with 10 per cent gelatin
solution which is allowed to become
only partially dry before a small
amount of sodium phosphate is added,
then the drying process is continued
slowly. The limitations look much like
genuine pearls, but they can be detect
ed by noting the place where the bulbs
have been seuled. -.

THIS DEALER HAD REAL TACT
Stout and Thin Customers Use Special
Mirrors In Wearing Apparel
Establishment.

A dealer in wearing apparel, noticing
that his stout customers and his very
thin customers often were sensitive as
to their figures, installed two full
length mirrors Of special design, says
Popular Mechanics magazine. One was
slightly concave and the other slightly
convex. When stout customer tried
on a suit she was led to the concave
mirror for self-inspection. and was able
to see her figure as it would appear
with its measurements reduced. When
n thin person came in to try on clothes
she was taken to the convex mirror,
where the opposite effect was pro-
duced.

OFFICER NOT GUILTY
OF HANDLING OPIUM

After celebrating about 80 minutes,
a jury in federal court today returned
verdict of not guilty in the case Of
Tau Wah, district court messenger,
who was charged with having opium
in possession. Lau Wah was arrest
ed late last year during raid made
by Marshal j. j. Smiddy. A small
horn of opium was found on him. In
accounting for the opium in his
clothes, Lau Wah said that few days
prior to his arrest one Henry Lee Chin
had asked him for the 'rnakings' of
q cigarette. After making the cigar
cite, Henry had put the papers and to-
bacco back into Lau Wah's pocket,
the defendant said That the horn of
opium was put in his pocket at the
same time, was Lau Wah's contention.
Henry denied he knew anything about
the opium. FL.

COLLINS bound
TO PUSH LAIMI
ROAD PROJECT

City Engineer Collins had something
to say about the attempts Of the pri-
vate property owners to force a
change in the plans of the City Plan
ing Commission to extend Laimi road
az an outlet to the Puunui district.
THE City Planning Commission as
a commission cannot sit down and
listen to the walls of every private in
terest," he declared. They must plan
for the future growth of the city, re-
CARELESS of the interests of private
property. It's q question of whether
we are going to serve private or pub
lie interests. If, as believe, the pub
lie interest demands a road along the
property of Mr.. Sherman and the
Country Club am in favor of putting
it through, even if we have to start
condemnation proceedings. 1t is a
question of principle and there should
be no compromise"
Collins said he had talk with
President Sutton of the Country Club
after the meeting yesterday and after
explaining the matter to him, Mr.. SUIT.
ton declared, I'm sorry that ! have
met you; you explain it too WELL"

MORRIS MARU TO
TAKE PARTY TO
TUNA'S HAUNTS

Harold l.. Morris, owner of the Nor
ris Maru, will entertain two E1ted
fishermen of the E1airtlnd on his boat,
leaving here Thursday for Mailikini,
Maui. Mr.. Morris rlakes his home
In Denver, but spends much of his
time in Hawaii, where he has become
a big booster for Hawaii game fish
ing. II
Mr.. Morris will have as his guests
]. w. Jump of Los Angeles and f. K.
Burnham of Martinez, two sportsmen
known all over America. Mr.. Jump
and Mr.. Burnham were very success
full ON their last trip to Maui and
brought back several specimens OF
tuna and other game fish. Both men
are expert at landing tuna, and the
party expects to bring back record
catch. -..
The Morris Maru is a large boat,
accommodating about 10 people, and
is one of the best fishing boats in
Hawaii. Mr.. Morris has had a 40
horsepower foureylinder engine In
stalled in his boat, which makes 1t a
good sea-going fish boat. He has also
arranged for the best tackle obtain
able, and the Morris Maru has been
fitted up with everything that goes
toward making a good fishing boat.
The boat lacked only one feature
to make 1t certain that it could be
depended upon to land the largest
fish. This is what is called the Gaia
lima seat. Mr.. Jump has agreed to
construct the seats for fishing, and
when the Morris Maru leaves on
Thursday it is expected that every de-
tail will be arranged for a successful
fishing cruise.
Mr.. Morris is confident that the
party will be able to land number
of big fish in the waters around
Maui, and as Mr.. Jump had very good
success on the last trip, no definite
date has been set for their return.
They will stay out until they have
landed some big tuna. .~-.-.. i. ID, 4. 4. f

PICTURE brides
Marshal Arrests One as Pro-
curer and Has Warrants for
Two Other Suspects

Charged with procuring, II. Tsui. a
local Japanese, was arrested by Mar
shall ]. j. Smiddy late yesterday att
ernoCn and today Is being held IN
custody by the federal officials pend
ing the fixing of his bond.
The warrant on which Tsui was ar
rested contains the names of two 9TH
er Japanese, who are charged with
similar offense and who have not yet
been aprehended. IL is alleged in the
warrant that the Japanese have been
dealing in picture brides" peddling
the women from one place to another
for theN purpose of marriage After
the women are secured, the authori-
ties claim, they are sold outright TO
the highest bidder. 1883
According to federal officials, the
husband of a pretty Japanese woman
with a young baby made the COM
plant which resulted in Tsui's arrest,
and which involved the two other
Japanese. This woman, ii is alleged.
was married to the complainant at
the federal immigration station short
Iy after her arrival in the territory.
Tsuiu. Il is claimed, used his influence
to get the woman away from her
husband, and then sold her to another
Japanese for $780, There was no
marriage performed after the woman
was sold" to the second man. As
Marshal Smiddy put IL today, the
woman was considered the sole prop
erty of the man who bought her.
The two other Japanese implicated
in the case probably will be arrested
this afternoon.
Marshal Smiddy this afternoon ar
rested S. Nakashima and Asano Ia
maguchi. both being charged with .
statutory offense. Bond In each case
was fixed at $3.50.
