an extended vacation and is ready to
extract teeth as usual.
Jim Whitmore and a car load Of
bronc busters arrived from Las Vegas
Tuesday and Jim acted as an official
during Thursday events. He knows

years they have enjoyed this pleasing
event.

Guard Your Children
Against Bowel Trouble

Many children at an early age
become constipated, and frequently
serious consequences result. Not
being able to realize his own con-
dition, chilj's bowels should be
constantly watched, and a gentle
LAXATIVE given when necessary.
DR.. Miles Laxative Tablets are
especially we'll adapted to women
and children. The Sisters Of
Christian Charity, s31 Charles ST.,
Luzcrne, Pa, who attend many
cases OF sickness say of them:
Some time ago we began ustnx Or.
Miles Laxative Tablets and find that
We like them very much. Their action
excellent and We are grateful for
having been made acquainted with
them. We have had good results In
every case and the Sisters are very
much pleased"
The form and favor of any medi.
cine is very important, no matter
who is to take it. The taste and
appearance are especially important
when children are concerned. All
parents know how hard it is to give
the average child medicine" even
though the taste is partially dis
guised. In using DR.. Miles Lax
ative Tablets, however, this diff.
Guilty IS overcome. The shape of
the tablets, their appearance and
candy-like taste at once appeal to
any child. with the result that they
are taken without objection.
The rich chocolate favor and
absence OF other taste, make Or.
Miles Laxative Tablets the ideal
remedy for children. T.

mIE PATRIOTIC PARADE.
An Inspiring Demonstration OF Suu.

would have been a sorry spectacle

form. There were altogether about
seventy-five or eighty men in the line
OF march and less women. IL those
who are members OF the Red Cross
organization are excepted. It was, as
was said at the outset, an inspiring
spectacle. and the writer might let it
go at that and the people Of Sumter
could congratulate themselves that
once again the report had gone forth
that Sumter had risen nobly to the
occasion and had done itself proud.
But once in a long while it is whole
some to tell the plain unvarnished
facts. And it is a fact that save for
the presence OF the school children in
the line Of march the parade would
have been neither imposing nor inspir-
ing. The writer knows what he is
talking about, for he was one Of those
who stood on the sidelines and watch
ed the others do the parading. And
the writer has. probably as good An
excuse for being a spectator and not
parader as the thousand or two
others who stood on the streets or sat
in automobiles and watched the other
folks do the marching-he thought
everybody else in town would be In
the parade and he would not be
missed. But be the excuse what it
may. Sumter did not make the parade
as big thing and as inspiring 9
demonstration Of the patriotic spirit
OF the Gamecock City as It could have
been made with very little Individual
effort. d,
The parade formed on the graded
school square and proceeded up Lib
erty to Main street to the Court
House square. forming on the green
ut the rear OF the building. After q
few remarks and announcements by
Rev. ]. p. Marion the crowd was
dismissed, Mr.. r. H. King. Of Char

ISLAND SPUDSPtENTY
IN MARKET DIVISION
LongIey Reports Fine Supply of
"MurphieS" From Kauai

The Garden Island has a thousand
bags of Irish potatoes for the Honolulu
market.
A. T. Longley, superintendent of the
territorial marketing division, received
this information yesterday afternoon,
and is writing for further advice con
corning the quality of the spuds and
when they can be shipped.
That's the biggest lot of tubers
that ever came out Of Kauai, within my
knowledge" Longley said. 81 knew
about five hundred bags were to be
shipped down, but this is still better
provided they are first -class potatoes. 4"
These may enable the marketing divi.
sion to bid on potato contract to sup
ply the army in July, Whether his divi-
ion could dispose of so Large a consign
ment on the city market, to grocery
firms and to individual consumers, is a
question; but it is likely the army will
Ike the entire amount if LOngley can
supply them at q figure that is low
enough.
There is a fairly good sized quantity
of Island grown Irish potatoes on the
market right now, practically all those
held by the territorial division being
from Maui, but they do not grade rs
well as they did II year ago.
The fact just at present is, however,
that there appears to be no shortage of
Irish potatoes in Honolulu. Consumers
are still urged to insist upon the Island
grown tubers when they order, and if
they cant get them from the family
grocer, to buy at the territorial market

SENTRY AFFRONTED
BY SPANISH CONSUL
Senior Gil, Also Germany's Repre-.
sentative, Berates Sergeant
When He Is Questioned

An alleged affront to sergeant of
the United States army guard stationed
over the Japanese cruiser Yakumo
while here, IL stated to have male
Sr. Luis CULLEN Gil Spanish consul,
persona non grata with the army Off
cials here. II was even stated yester.i
day on more or less reliable authority,
that the commander of the local de-,
partment may take steps TO have the
consul, who Is also the representative
here of Germany, reported to higher
diplomatic officials Of the nations con j
eerned.
On one of the days in which the
Yakumo was opened to the Japanese
public but closed to all others except.
with passes, Senior Gil made several
unsuccessful attempts to get on board
the vessel, which was lying at Pier Z.
There was both wharf gate guard
and gangplank guard furnished from
the company of the FIRST United States
Infantry then on general provost duty
and this guard had strict orders to
permit no one on the vessel except
Japanese and those properly armed
with passes. ~
Senior Gil, ID Is stated by the soldiers
on duty, presented no credentials and
was consequently refused admission.
He was later passed by the sentry by
a first lieutenant of the staff, it is
stated, and got on board the vessel,
with several ladies of the family of
a local-judieial official. rs"
While he was On the vessel il was
reported to the sentry at the gang.
plank that the consul was also the
German representative and desiring to
report the incident to the sergeant Of
the guard the soldier sent for that non
commissioned officer and related his
story. The sergeant, believing that he
might be required to give an explana.
ton TO the officer of the guard, re.
lieved the sentry himself until the con
sui left the vessel. ..ri }
When this occurred the sergeant
halted him and inquired who he was
and how he had got on board the ship.
Gil, il is stated by eye witnesses, re.
fused to answer him and started to
walk away. The sergeant brought him
up with sharp turn and the Official
at once flew into a rage. As reported
by the witnesses, he shook his fist lin
the sergeant's face and directed a tor
rent of abuse at him. The soldier was
taken aback and finally permitted him
to leave, but notified his company com
mander at once. -
The captain held an investigation.
examining the soldiers concerned and
Ill the civilians present and their com
bined stories, which are said to have
allied in every respect were such that
he immediately filed N detaila1 ranort
with his suPeriors and reused their ire
equally with his own.
1t is considered probable in army
'ircles that the affair will be finished in
Washington. '.,.'
