BY authority of the Supreme Court and under
the direction of Commissioner Gilroy the long
deferred removal of dangerous electric-hght
wires was begun in earnest yesterday, and will
proceed without interruption during the hours
of daylight so long as may be necessary While
the work is in progress considerable parts OF
the city will be badly lighted at night and
though the police authorities may be expected

zen will need to conduct himself with special
prudence, by way of providing in measure for

these operations, but the penalties are small in

fully Mangied at Barstow.
Coroner Halves and L. v. Eckhart drove
up to Barstow this morning to hold an
inquest on the body of Robert Mcneil, a
colored tramp, who was run over there
and killed by an extra train on the c.,
B. & Q. road about 8 o'clock yesterday
afternoon. Coroner Halves summoned q
jury, composed of DR.. Geo. Merryman, L.
V. Eckhart, VIM. johnson, G. l.. LAM
bert, VIM. Golden and Frank Golden,
and proceeded with the inquest, in which
it was developed that Mcneil had beaten
his way from Savanna by riding in a
freight car. in an extra train running from
Savanna to Barstow, in charge of Conduc-
tor Ed. Ray, who had taken Ferepaug h's
train up. At Barstow he attempted to
climb from one car to another Just as the
train started up, and he was thrown on
the rail, the wheels passing over his groin
and abdomen, almost severing the body.
The poor fellow fingered an hour and a
half in most terrible agony, during which
he was fully conscious and entreated
those about him to kill him and put him
out of his misery. DIR. Merryman, of
Moline, witnessed the accident, but was
unable to relieve the sufferer.
The verdict of the coroner's jury was
that deceased came to his death by being
run over by an extra train on the Bur-
lington road and that no blame could be
attached to the men in charge of the

Mr.. Samuel Webb, the delegate from
Preceptory No. 300 of this city. to the
national convention, returned home
Thursday. The convention met at Pitts

days. Mr.. Webb says that the conven>
ton was one of the most important and
harmonious ever held in this country.
Every delegate vas present. The hal
in which they deliberated was handsome
ly decorated by ladies of the Smoky
City. Fresh boquets found a place on
the desk of the presiding officer every
morning during the session, and the
American emblem was floated to the
breeze from a staff on the top of the
building and a second one from the win
dow of the hall. The wage commit
tee will meet committee represent
ing the manufacturers. Aug. IS.
The only perceptible hitch will be
on the advance of five per cent
on the part of the employees. and re-
duction of a like per centage by the EN-
ployers. The strike, which occurred
some four years ago, was caused by a
reduction in pay of ten per cent. The
employees compromised by accepting five
per cent reduction, with the promise of
the other FIVE being made good at a later
date. The preceptory think that this
promise should be made good this fire"
The report of the president of the or
ganization was encouraging in all re-
spects, and shows that the window glass
industry of the country is rapidly in
creasing. His recommendations as to a
more liberal policy to apprentices was
favorably received, and will result in
giving the youths of the land an oppor>
tunity TO learn trade. The treasurer's

played by the convention to meet the
manufacturers in an amicable way and
join hands and work together, as urged
by the presidentand other members of the
meeting.

Hair or no hairP" That is the ques-
ton that is agltating writers, BARRIERS and
the people. Some of your journalists
have claimed that the youth of the future
will be entirely without hair, and it is
potent to all that the claim is not with>
out foundation. A majority of men at
thirty have disease of the scalp in some
form; many of them are already losing
their hair and BARRIERS say there Is no
preparation on the market that will re-

brought on to Yokohama and trans
ported on Thursday week to Tokyo

cited, struck its horns against the

A FINE ENTERTAINMENT.
THE SWISS wARBLERs AND MALTBY THE
CYCLIST Az THE OPERA HOUSE.

1t was not large audience, but
it was most enthusiastic one that
greeted the first appearance of the
Swiss warblers last evening at the
Hawaiian Opera House. Maltby
the cyclist made his second appear
ance, aud taken in all, the entertain
menI was as good a one as has been
given in this city in a long time.
Mr.. Levey is deserving of credit in
his successful attempt to cater for
the amusement of our residents.
The programme opened with an
overture by the string orchestra of
the Hawaiian Band under the direc-
ton of Mr.. Berger, who manipu-
lated the violin.
Mr.. Maltby, during the evening
appeared as Mile. Emlllius, and
gave very fine exhibition of riding
on the bicycle and unicycle. AS a
fancy and trick rider Maltby is
really wonderful, some of his feats
almost seeming impossible. He was
loudly applaudrd.
The three Tyrolese warhlers Miss
Uhl Messrs. Mag and Schmidt
made a great hit, and received a
perfect ovation for the quaint ana
pathetic manner in which they
rendered several Tyrolese trios, in
Producing tue jode. They were
dressed in picturesque costume.
Mr.. Schmidt played the accompani-
ments on the Either, and gave a
solo en- the same instrument which
was a magnificent performance. He
is master of the instrument and
| the music he draws forth is simply
beautiful. Mr.. Mag also played
the guitar. These warblers should
be heard to be fully appreciated.
Another performance will be given
this evening with an entire change
of programme. Seats can be OBJ
tanned at Mr.. l.. j. Levey's office.
