A MUSTARD PLASTER
That Was the Verdict and the Missus
Was Happy

Old Bill was sick. The doctor came
and looked him over, long distance
telephoned to his lungs and bronchial
tubes, played xylophone solo on his
ribs, massaged him in several tender
places, took his temperature and then
announced solemnly that ne had the
grip. He could have told the doctor
that before he started in, but M. DIS
are peculiar. If you tell them you
have boil on the back of your neck
they won't take your word for it
They must first take punch at it
to be sure that it is boil.
That done, the doctor and the
missus held long consultation. "Ah,"
he thought, "they are now deciding
whether we are worth saving. They
are now making up their minds
whether it is better to let me die or
operate to save my life and let me
become public burden"
When the consultation came to an
end the missus wore one of her happi-
est smiles.
"He has ordered mustard plaster"
Bill said to himself. ''Nothing but
the thought of slapping a red hot
mustard plaster onto his chest. and
strapping it there could give such
radiant expression of perfect salts
faction"
That was the verdict. A mustard
plaster until his chest was scared to
the likeness of sheet of postage
stamps. Then cough medicine that
tasted like furniture polish and every
two hours capsule.
After the mustard plaster had eaten
its way through to his back fence
posts the doctor recommended sooth-
ing application of camphorated oil
That was indeed kind of him. He
might have ordered sulphuric acid.

GEN. R. K. EVANS GIVES
HIS "G00DBY" SPEECH
Retiring Commander of Depart
4 ment Says Aloha; VariouS
Features at Lunch

War and the municipal bond issue
we're the two main subjects taken up
by the Ad Club today at its regular
luncheon at the Alexander. Young
hotel
The subject of war was contained
in letter from Paul Super, general
superintendent of the Y. M. G. A., on
his experience in Canada and what
the people are doing there for the
war. A goodby speach by Gen. r. X.
Evans, who is leaving here next
month, and a description Of trip
through Switzerland and Germany at
the beginning of the European war
by Geo. B. Thayer, who is now touring
the Hawaiian Islands, were added
features, and the talk on bonds by A.
Lewis, Jr., was the center of close
attention. l.. A. Thurston also spoke
briefly on the bond subject.
Il came up here to say goodby,"
said Gen. Evans, "but ] am coming
back; in fact, it will probably be next
summer. November 19 shall be 64
years old and by law l. must retire, but
| am glad to say that am still in good
condition, for of my f3 classmates at
West Point only seven remain alive.
l also wish particularly to thank l..
A. Thurston for the land which he has
opened to the soldiers at the volcano
for it will give them great pleasure
and they are extremely anxious to CO.
Mr., Thayer called his talk "a Trip
Through Hell,n and said that from
what he saw while making his way to
the coast from Switzerland war
should never be allowed and that mill
tarism is absolutely wrong.
Mr. Lewis came out strongly for the
bond issue proposal, particularly for
waterworks and sewers. Both he and
Mr.. Thurston pointed out that the tax
increase plan cannot be effective pn-
til 1918, and Mr. Thurston indicated
that he favors the bond issue plan,
both of which points we're appreciated
by the Ad Clubites.
Honolulu Must Progress
In opening his very pertinent talk,
Mr.. Lewis pointed out that a large
amount of money must be expended
ito place Honolulu on a par with the
average American CITY," He asked II
Honolulu is willing to pay the price
and assumed that as a matter of pro-
gressive public spirit, it is.
He pointed out the necessity of ex-
pending funds in a comprehensive
manner and then went into discus
sion of the tax rate proposal.
Here he emphasized the inability
to get the revenues from increased
tax rates before 1918, and said that
it is agreed that Honolulu is behind
in public improvements now and a
beginning on construction should be
made as soon as possible. He point
ed out that not only must tax rate in
creases wait upon legislative action
and thus be delayed until 1910. but
legislative action is required to re-
lease the cash basis fund.
Here he said:

GEN. FELIX DlAZ PLANS
OVERTHROW OF CARRANZA

WASHINGTON, d. c., Oct. 25. =
Menaced by the gathering forces OF
Felix Diaz, nephew of the great dicta-
tor of Mexico, and by the growing
power of Pancho Villa, bandit leader
of bandits, Gen. Carranza, head oil
the de facto government of Mexico, is
reported to be preparing to abandon
his country and flee for safety to the
United States.
His wife, accompanied by Mrs OBJ
regon. the wife of Gen. Obregon, sec
retary of war for the de facto govern
ment, has already crossed the border
into the United States.
Such is the sensational news
brought to this city in reports from
the southern republic, and given full
credence by the opponents of Carran-
"a and his administration. These are
freely charging that Carranza, whose
personal power in Mexico is believed
to be rapidly dwindling until it now
is said to amount to 1ittle or nothing,
has been laying his plans for fleeing
from the Mexican capital as soon as
possible.
The Mexican embassy here denies
that the first chief of the republic
intends to leave, and declares that
the visit of the two women is but for
the purpose of making tour of the
states"
Dispatches reaching the border yes
terday declared that Diaz has entered
the city of Toluca, the capital of the
state of Mexico, and but a short dis
tance from the City of Mexico.
| He is said to have completed his
conquest OF the country about Toluca
and to be extending his lines in the
direction of the capital of the coun
try.
me whole of the southern part ol
the republic is said to have rallied tt
his support, and to be lukewarm in
obeying the commands of the Carran
"a government.
