THE PASSING THRONG
What Men Talk of in the Streets
and Hotels.
A HONOLULU NEWSPAPER MAN.
He Tells OF Life In the Happy Islands
Some "reminiscences of the Late
Sitting Bull.

Mr. ". A. o. Beals, who for some time has
been connected with the Erenfna Bulletin at Hon.
olulu Ia at the Diller hotel. Mr.. Beals, whose
family lives at San Francisco, has been in the
Hawaiian islands for seven years. .Wc now
have two dailies at Honolulu, a morning and an
afternoon, said be last evening. We used to
have another, but il has died. Besides, we
have several weeklies and monthlies, and there
are papers for the Portuguese and the Chinese.
"The most famous literary man who has been
on the islands lately is Robert Louis Stevenson,
whose famous paragraph Ia defense of Father
Damien has perhaps been as widely read as his
popular stories. Stevenson was regarded by the
Eawaiians as rather an eccentric fellow, and his
wife was, too. They had a house in a fashion
attended by some OF the best people. He him
self was strengthening fellow, and al
ways going around as If he were in desperate
hurry about something.
.'Jugt now the labor question is agitating the
public mind in Hawaii. There is much com
plant about the Chinese They come out
under three years contract to work on the
plantations. When their time is up they go into
the city and pick up trade or open small
shop. Thus they drive out mechanics or small
shepkeepers. So the feeling against them is
strong among the men whom they displace.
"Ibe Japs are better than the Chinese, and the
South Sea islanders are frst-rate men on planta-
tons, but enough of them cannot be obtained.
"The talk in this country that perhaps King
kalakana came to the United states TO urge
nexation OF the islands would be laughed at in
Hawaii. The people there are not discussing
the subject very much, and OF course the king
himself has no power to surrender the islands 10
the United States.
"The sugar planters are making an cutlery for
fear OF the effects OF the Mckinley bill bat
don't think they will suffer severely. They feel
that unless they make u fortune every year they
are wronged; but even though their enormous
prohts. may be cut down they will manage to get
along

Local Agent Of Northwest Fire and Ma
rine Makes n Statement.

a. A. Wright, agent OF the Northwest Fire and
Marine Insurance Company, of Portland, has
just returned from Portland, where be went 70
dispose Of his Port Orchard homestead. Yester-
day be said, in reference TO the supposed hnan-
cial troubles Of the company.
"On the sth Of October the board OF directors,
after very thorough investigation and over
hauling OF the business and books of the COM
pany, decided TO extend the field OF operations,
and recognizing the fact that In so doing IL
would be To the hest interests OF the insuring
public to increase the paid-up capital and thus
offer snrer indemnity TO each and everyone OF
Its patrons and policy holders, levied an assess
ment OF 80 per cent on the capital stock. large
proportion OF this assessment, say 50 per cent,
has already been paid in, but out OF the very
large humber of shareholders there are
a few who are dissatisfied with the ac-
ton of the beard, and these few have ap-
parently joined together to express their
disapprovai Of such action, and have taken
every opportunity in their power TO iniure the
reputation OF the company, demanding, in the
hrst place, an official investigation by the lnsur
ance commissioner of Oregon, and this investiga-
ton having resulted favorably TO the company,
showing as IL does, that 1t is solvent beyond any
doubt, as q last resource have made application
TO the judge of the United states court for re-
ceiver and in their complaint, which is very
verbose and lengthy document, they make
numerous and grave charges against the director
ate and management of the company. Their
complaint was made In such foreibie language,
and apparently in good faith, that the honorable
court issued an injunction ordering the CON-
pany TO stop business and show cause why a
receiver should not be appointed.
This order was issued at O'Clock p. m. Mon
day, December 8, aud on Tuesday morning, De-
cember .. as soon as court opened the president
vice president and secretary of the company had
preliminary hearing, presenting their side OF
the story, and also the official report OF the in
suranee commissioner, with the result that the
judge stayed the injunction and allowed the
company TO continue to transact business. The
complaint, however, having been made in due
form, IL Is necessary that the same shall be
answered in the manner prescribed by law, and
the court has allowed the company ten DAYS in
which TO file its answer. The case will be
heard during the present week, and as soon as
the official decision OF the court is reached, it
will, of course, be made public. Meantime
there Is no question that the Northwest is en-
tirely solvent and able to meet all its Liabilities
ana pay its losses. Ii would seem that all the
trouble is caused by very few men who repre-
sent a minority of the stock and who, in their
attempt TO avoid payment of their obligations,
to which they have pledged themselves and their
estates when they purchased the stock have not
hesitated to attack the management OF the COM

SITTING BULL.
Some Anecdotes of the Famous Indian
Chief and Warrior.

The tragic death of Sitting Bull has called
forth number OF "reminiscences OF the famous
Indian cbieftain. Mr.. S. A. Bushman, the night
clerk at the Rainier hotel, lived for some years
at Bismarck, Oak, and used frequently to see
Sitting Bull HE wac considered willy old
rascal" said Mr. Bushman last evening, land at
the same time be was uncommonly surly.
Judge that he was about five feet eight inches
tall and he must have weighed 175 pounds. His
sour face was deeply wrinkled and he was not
nearly so good looking as the other Sioux chiefs,
John Gaul, John Grass and Rain-in- the Face
He never gave the least indication that he had
come IN contact with civilization. Many of the
other Sioux adopted In part at least, the ways of
white men, but old Bull never did.
,ha I'm lSssi at the laying Of the Cornerstone OF
ent From his grim expression you could see
that he was not at all glad to be there He made
short speech OF a dozen words or more, directly
following that of Henry Willard
81 saw Sitting Bull again at public gathering
a year ago last July, at the time OF the eonven-
ton for the state constitution. He marched in
the procession with the Indians, but he was as
morose and sullen as he had been six years be-
fore. He seemed very jealous of the attentions
pald TO the other Sioux leaders"
Ex-Governor Louis K Church, of Dakota, has
seen quite good deal OF sitting Bull. During
paratively little influence but he used what in
huenee he possessed for making mischief
'.He used to oppose the education OF the Indi-
ans, yet at the same time he was careful that his
two daughters should marry young bucks who
had had the advantages of the school for Indians
at Carlisle, Pa.
Sitting Bull was vain old fellow. Some two
years ago | was with the party that went to
Washington City with the Sioux leaders to con-
duet the negotiations then pending with the
tribe. We all went to a spot back of the capitol
to have our pictures taken in a group. Every
man took his hat Of but Sitting Bull. He in
sisted upon keeping his on in order to draw at
tentiOQ TO himself"

At yesterdays meeting of the Chamber of

BUILDING ACROSS A BOG.


The engineers OF the Belt Line railroad have
undertaken difficult piece of work in trying to
make roadbed across Mercer slough. The
work OF filling has already begun, but it is a
question whether it will not be necessary to pile
the slough after ALL The slough is soft bog
from eighty to one hundred feet Deep and was
evidently once an arm OF Lake Washington.
In surface Is covered with floating earth, matted
together by the interlaeing roots OF trees In
the belief that this surface would bear
the weight OF the road, Engineer
Estep has begun making the roadbed over 1t
from both sides ThRearth is being dumped on
foundation OF c.spr osv so as to hold II to-
frtheF. The weigl x5sse ready pressed the cor
utoYn seyers into the bog, carrying
th<eiss lsasaea with IT, and causing the
laftef TO stand up as Kspongy wall at each side.
RMS TACT does not cause fear of the failure OF the
scheme, for IL was expected that the roadbed
would sink to depth equal to its height above
the enrfaee. But the plan can not succeed unless
tie crust OF the bog Is strong enough to besrfhe
weight not only Of the roadbed and track, but of
the trains which are to pass over il. Should Ii
break under the immense pressure, the bog
would swallow the track and any train which
happened to be on it.
II the road IL 10 be built across the slough. the
only alternative to filling is 10 drive piles from
70 TO 100 feet long in order 20 reach firm
foundation. Unless the piles are driven to solid
bottom, 1t is feared that the trestle would be
ylckety and unsafe Yet 10 drive piles to such
depth Is no small undertaking.

THE FRAMING OF PICTURES.
A Work Of Art May Be Made Ugly b,
Its Settings.

There is nothing detracts so much from a
painting, an etching or an engraving as a dingy
frame. 1t may be very well to say that picture,
like jewel, shines all the brighter for gloomy
surroundings, but ii is not so. A work OF art in
worn out frame is like lovely woman in
dirty old calico gown; both would be incalcula-
bly, improved by being surrounded by something
more in consonanee with their beauty. The en-
tire lower floor of the immense double store &C.
cupied by Bake, Cole d Co., No. 1,2l7 Front

workmen in their employ in the making OF
picture frames, and they are kept busy filling
the orders that come in a steady stream from ali
portions OF the northwest. The stock of mould
ings and frame materials carried is one of the
largest in the country, and no matter what kind
OF frame may be desired, Bake, Cole Il Co. are
enabled to meet the want instantly. Owing to
their immense business they can meet the de-
mands of their patrons great deal more cheaply
than other firms, and as their artisans are thor
