Nobody told unyhody else ubolll It

she had discovered a place where
she could go and have ii feast w II li
mit ineeilng anybody she .knew
The nexl day first one, Ihen anoth
er of us went to Ihe place, (hut
nobody else knew uboul." Soon
every single one of us hud collected
there. We thought It miglily fun
ny, and since we were all "in on
II" we could not see why thai
should spell the feast. We each
had six pieces of marvelous pas
lry on our piule and were JuhI
about to start Hie ceremony, when
yes. you've guessed II In walked
one of Hie chaperons. !lie hud
discovered Ihe place, loo. und hud
come there lo purlake very quietly
of u piece of paslry. Of course,
the slaughter of pastry Unit fol
lowed was terrible. 1'ive out or

paid by workmen to the memory
of mi all but forgotten chieftain
of Hawaii, and tho desecration ol
his ashes was rendered Impossible.
In the path of a dredger which
has been constructing a drainage
canal there stood a house Inhabited
by an old Hawaiian ami his wife.
They were warned to vacate as the
dredger' upproaehed their small
holding.
They refused to leave. After
several days of nrgiimcnt it wnn
found that their refusal wus based
upon the fact -that their house was
on an old burial ground and that
the bones of a great chief ami n
dozen of his relatives were under
ground. The old people would not leave
the spot until they had seen the
removul of tho bones of the "allt"
and his relatives, und th"lr re-In
terment In some more peaceful
spot. The board of health was
consulted. A permit to dig up the
bones was granted. An undertaker
removed the remains from tlu
earth, and the dredgi r continued on
its way through the uncle nt rente
tery.
