City Treasurer, and of Mrs Troup
Hines, and a daughter of Mrs. C.
W. Newsome. Mr. Hill was in
Cuba at the time of her death,
but arrived in the city this morn
ing. A befitting story of her life
and good deeds will be prepared
by some of her life-long friends
and appear in the next issue of
this paper.
Our people sympathise deeply
with Mrs. Hines, Mrs. Newsome,
and Mr. Hill in this say hour.

Mark Twain after his visit to
the Hawaiian Islands, said; “The
music of the Hawaiians, the most
fascinating in the world, is still
in my ears and haunts me sleep

the pulsing of the surf at Haiki-
ki, and see theUplumy palms
drowsing by the shore, the gar
land craigs and leaping cascades,
and this music fills me with the
quality and individually of the
Hawaiian music is dua to the

and valuable wood known as
Koa, no other wood produces the
same deep and mellow sound.

Mr. Roy Hardin, the 18 year
old son of Mr. and Mrs. R. S.
Hardin ot Brinson was seriously
injured in a accident in the old
planing mill of the Stuart Lum
ber Company last Thursday.
Young Mr. Hardin and smne
others were moving out a piece
of machinery and in handling
spirit of the woodland solitude.”
Just as this music fascinated the
beloved American homorist and
author, so it has captivated thous
ands of people from both hemis
pheres who annually stop at the
island. The Hawaiian songs run
to harmony rather than to mere
melody, and yet at the same time
there is no well sustained theme
in them. Much of the novel tone

AUTOMOBILE SPEEDERS
The Mayors Court was paid
one hundred dollars last week by
the speeders of the city. The
court has established regular
rates of ten dollars for the first
offense and twenty-five for the
second and on up as often as a
man is convicted of violating
the speed ordinances. The court
will from now on publish the
names and amount of fines of all
that violate the ordinance in the
Official Organ ot the city. If
you don’t want to be fined and
see it published you had better
observe the speed laws of the
city. We are compelled to ob
serve that the idea pleases every
body but those that may have
had to put in the contribution
box. Strict enforcement of this
law may mean the saving of a
life or two ere the summer is
over and the people are anxious
that the Mayor do all he can to
break it up. If you do not wish
to see your name appear in the
proceedings of the court, you
can avoid this by obserbing the
traffic regulations of the city.
Below is a list of the speeders
that were fined last week.
