Sir: Observing that one Agnes

sion maybe /, too. might be bold
enough to take a hand. 81
|.-san4tlle first place, Iermita me to state
that / was not born in Ireland but in
Canada; did not leave that country
at the age of ten, but 10; and am not
Irish but Scotch English.

Agnes Rouse is telling the whole
truth when she says, Il love Ireland y
Her sentence was unfinished inter-
pref her meaning as follows, Il love
ireland under England. = -. g..
1t was my good fortune to become
the wife of an Irishmati who really
it is very easy to contrast the two
kinds of love- ...--.-e.. H. " T. -.
The reference to want OF self
respect among the Irish people is a
great deal older than, and almost. as
ridiculous as, the Belgium atrocity
stories. Nobody except a dyed in
the WOOL" Empire mad Britisher be-
lieves either. BY the way, what re-
markable similarity exists between
the Congo atrocity stories and the
Belgium atrocity stories, and how
much they agree with the stories from
London regarding the battle of Dub
lin"-killing women and children, fir
ing on the Red Cross, etc, la the
Beers a short time ago. ~.....- 49,.

cowardly to strike whilst England was
engaged elsewhere. fail to see the
cowariice of men who, imperfectly
armed and hopelessly outnumbered,
! struck a blow for freedom at time
when England had the greatest army
in her whole history. 1t ought also
, to be pointed out that the Nationalist
of Ireland had either to see their
leaders jailed and their comrades dis,

been unworthy OF Ireland if they had
done other than they did These we're

It * surprising TO find the Advertiser uelcndiiS
racc-track betting and still more surprising 10 Ind IN
is editorial columns the following naive comment
Now. IL running a horse for cash stake is
gambling so IL playing baseball for percentage OF

our contemporary contend that the various baseball
nlayers of the various leagues should be hailed INTO

should be estopped from further regattas? II It VIII
Just consider moment it will be able TO detect tne
wide difference between track betting anu coH

II the writer of the above innocent comment does
not know the difference between putting up bets and

names of the owners and said The stakes were 500

The two owners put UP small amount each to
make the purse the editorial remarks inSenu-
ously That must make the race-track bettors smile
The Advertiser also quotes the following rule of the
Hawaii Polo and Racing Club: =.
Rule 22--Gambling or betting upon the outcome OF
any shall be prohibited at all race meets held
under the auspices of this Club, and shall be the
duty OF the Racing Committee to expel from the
grounds of the Club and from all premises under their
control any person or persons detected in gambling
or making wagers upon any race there being held,
and il is declared 10 be the duty OF said Committee
detect and prosecute IL necessary any person so
doing. = %>.-.:.@. =. --.t.>..s:.
This rule plainly shows the club knows that wager
ing racing is unlawful If it adhereS rlgor-
o,sy to the rule, 1t will drive from its premises the
cheap touts and other rfraff who have brought dis
credit to the racing game all over the country.
The Star Bulletin believes that SO long as the laws
against gambling the statutebooks, they should
be enforced without favor They should be enforced
against bettors at kapolani Park just as severely as
against chef players River street or crap-shooers

OF DECK AND FIGHT STARTED

There must have been a game all
right at the Turkish Bath House,
Third and Shipley streets. last Sun
day night. according to testimony Of
fered this morning in City Court,
when Max Berdit was charged with
assault and battery on Louis Plum.
But the details of the game we're not
fully supplied by the witnesses. It
appeared. however, that Plum had
been playing poker in an upper room
of the bath house with Berdit and
some others. Trouble started and
Berdit was hit. Plum testified some
of the men sat upon him and took all
the money he had won. Opinions OF
what happened varied but all agreed
it was a good game. Plum declared
he thought Berdit drew an ace from
the bottom of the pack to pair with
one in his hand.
Evidence of Berdit's assault on
Plum being unsupported, Berdit was
dismissed.

HollingSwOrth Tied TO Post
in Woods By Man Who
Escapes With Car
.RUFFIAN BRANDISHES
GUN IN HIS face

Charles Hollingsworth, son of E. j..
Hollingsworth, of Roselle. a lumber
merchant at Marshallton, had a
thrilling experience with a robber
early Monday morning. The robber
compelled young Hollingsworth at
the point of a revolver to drive him
in his fathers automobile to a point
near Hockessin and after tieing his
hands with stripes torn from a lap
blanket and then tieing him to a
fence post the man drove off with
the car and has not been seen since.
Young Hollingsworth thinks the man
was crazy and says he limited TO him
that the police were after him and
had chased him from Chicago.
The hold-up occurred at the en-
trance to the Hollingsworth garage
at their home in Roselle Z. j. Hol-
lingsworth returned to his home
about II o'clock Sunday evening in
his Dodge car. after being away all
day and placed the machine in the
garage.
It was about 1890 o'clock when
Charles, driving a Ford machine. ar
rived home. He noticed that the
larger car was part way out of the
garage door, and thinking this
strange he got out of his car to move
the Dodge so that he could get his
car in.
When he got close to the Dodge a
man suddenly jumped out and, point
ing a revolver in his face. told him
not to move or say a word. The man
remained in that position. pointing the
( pistol at Hollingsworth for several
minutes. He seemed to be trying to
decide what to do. He next ordered
Hollingsworth TO walk down the road
This he did. with the man following
