We don't know who to give it to but
some one ought to get credit for putting the
''rush' in Russia.
The Board of Control held its regular
meeting during the later part of the week.
An unusually large number of inmates were
granted an audience.
Christian Science services were held in
the auditorium last Sunday morning. Sew
eral beautiful solos were rendered during
the services.
There were a goodly number of visitors
in our parx last Saturday who expected to see
good game, but half of them left disguised
before the game was half over. We can't
understand what happened.
The warehouse is empty of machines.
The big motor truck is doing the rest OF
the shipping. They shipped some big
loads on the truck down to town to be load
ed on the cars there for the needy farmers,
who are not supplied.
Our park at present looks just as it did
in the Spring-half dried up-and it will do
no good to sprinkle the other half, it will
dry up anyhow. All the fine gardens that
looked so good a month ago are in the same
state
We just would like to know where all
those visitors come from for one week that
pass through our institution. They can't
be all from Minnesota because there amt
that many people living in the state.
Flower Sunday was duly observed in
our big Auditorium last Sunday morning
at 10 o'clock; about fifty ladies of the w.
c. T. U. were present with Rev. Benson
officiating. Mrs. Hendrix of Minneapolis,
President of the Union, delivered the sermon
in a clear voice and to the point. Every
one paid close attention to what she said.

Thorns of the Rose

Your little Aower! Again l view
My child-sweetheart in her rose bower
Your maiden grace and charm endue
Your little flower!
Like caress, it can renew
The Joy of life's most perfect hour!-
l kiss it now; it thrills me through.
AS your lips used to! All, how true
A symbol is your loves avower-
Long withered! All have of you.
Your little flower!
You love no more, and cruelty have slain
The woman in you that l loved of wore:
Now hope is broken, spilled all labor's gain,
You love no more!
My heart, with you al home, dark to the
core,
Drifts back to spring dreams tina,
held no strain:
You forget, your memory to adore.
l wonder if you yearn, too, and would fain,
If might be, the beauty to restore,
Or do you now remembrance, even, DISTANT
Though love be pain, oh, it outweighs
All other good, all other gain;
Upon the heart its crown it lays
Though love be pain!
Just once loves fullness to attain
Make life divine; with me always
Something you gave, dear, must remain.
The years are justified by days
Of love-all else they hold, how vain!
Oh, love the wage of living pays
Though love be pain!-E9.

Mr.. Swankley had been great traveller
and couldn't keep quiet about it. Every
thing reminded him of something else that

Swankley, ''you should just see the sunsets

life with drunkenness:

we want to ease our burden, to gladden. our

He paused for effect, and in the silence
could be heard the voice of the keeper of
the peace:

Just "Sunnies''

You may sport fish for pike,
Yellow perch and the like;
You may wade and toss flies at the
trout.
You may troll for black bass
Near the edge of the grass,
But count me decidedly out.

With plain angle worm
Full of ginger and squirm,
Trying hard to,inveigle "sunny.'
When he bites, you would think
That, down deep in the drink,
Was a whale or shark or a musky.
He submerges your bob
And he simply plays hob
In manner servigrous and husky,
But when he's pulled out
He's no twenty-inch trout
Of size that "run into money"
If he's four inches long
You may burst into song,
For he's only ''punkin-seed
sunny"
But you sit on a bank
Where the hoss-mint grows rank,
And the larks are all singing
around you.
Though the clouds may arise
In the warm summer skies
There's nothing in this to con-
found you.
There's no boat to upset
You can only get wet
In a manner prosaic and funny.
So my fishing I'll do

DOCTORS NEEDED
FOR j. 5. SERVICE,
ROTARIANS TOLD

Col R. G. Ebert was the principal
speaker at the Rotary Club lunch to-
day at the Commercial club. He
spoke concerning the need of a large
medical corps, and told of experiences
in previous wars.
IF the doctors do not show an in
clination to volunteer they will be
called upon by selective draft in the
very near future" said Colonel Ebert
Few people realize the number OF
men needed in the hospital work. The
British army has 10 doctors to each
1000 men. The United States had
seven which was recently increased
to ten. =,
During the campaign at Santiago
doctors were asked to care for three
regiments, anC they were given but
little medicine to work with. In an
army of 100000 men, 100000 are
needed for the medical corps This
includes physicians, surgeons and as
Sistants," he concluded.
S. s. Paxson asked that all of the
members of the club support the race
meet on June 9, II and Is. Zeno K.
Myers, who recently returned from
the mainland, gave a short talk.

not officially received a copy Of the

Attorney S. c. Huber makes It effec.

have conferred on the matter.
Gen. Strong today invited the atten-
ton Of the Star-Bulletin to action TAX
en- in New York on May 25 by the
arrangements of the leading hotels of
that city. These men decided as a
whole that they would not serve alco-
holic beverages to any man wearing a
uniform that designated him as be-
longing to ally arm Of the federal or
state service.
The management OF the Waldorf
said that although the mo liquor" pro-
vision Of the military draft law was
hot clearly understood as applying to
officers and men of the navy, national
guard and marine corps, the hotel had
decided to refuse liquor to anyone in
uniform, whether engaged in the mill
tary service of New York state or the
United States.
The general referred to details Of
an article in the New York Times Of
the day following this decision by ho-
tel men in the city. He says he IN
derstands that similar action has
been taken in San Francisco. The
article follows in part:
Hotel managers say the law will
apply equally to military men attend
ing dinners at hotels at the invitations
of civilians, the former not being per
mitted to have either beer or wine
with food. Although the law became
effective on May 10, its provisions
were not generally known, and little
attention was paid to it until yester-
day. But its general effects will be
more severely felt by restaurants and
saloons. Cafes and saloons near the

GERMAN VESSEL
READY TO SAIL
ON TRIAL TRIP

OF all the ex-German refugee mer'
chant steamers in American ports seiz'
ed by the United States when war was
declared on Germany, the Staatssekre'
tar Kraetke will be the first to carry
a cargo Of sugar from Honolulu to
San Francisco as United States
steamer.
1t was learned today that the
Kraetke will steam for Hilo to load
most of her sugar cargo and will re-
turn to this port to complete it. She
will take approximately 1900 tons to
the coast.
The trip to Hilo and back will be
in the nature of a trial voyage, to try
out her engines and boilers and ad-
just her compasses.
The freighter's engines and boilers
have been repaired here By the Homo
lulu Iron Works, acting under the
supervision of the local U. S. inspec-
tors of steam vessels.
The Kraetke's compasses may have
been put out of true by her officers
as a part of the systematic plan OF
disabling the vessel as carried out
on all the German boats here in Feb
ruary. II this is the case, the COM
passes will be trued up before the
vessel leaves for the mainland under
her own steam.
