FIRE LIMITS.

Il Is Determined to Have No Extension
OF Them for the Present.
The Fire Committee of the Board of
Supervisors took up the proposed extension
Of the fire limits yesterday afternoon and
gave it lis Quietus. The proposed extension
would have made a very radical change in
the district, and included many portions of
the city that the interested prOperty-own-
ers believed would not be in the fire limits
for many years to come. Although the Fire
Commissioners insisted that in the absence
Of a fully paid fire department the proposed
extension is absolutely necessary for the
protection Of the city, the property-owners
argued, with much greater force, that it
would practically ruin their property by
cutting off improvements. To construct
firsl-clasS brick buildings now would be out
Of the question, and, as nothing else would
De permitted, everything in the way of i'm
proyement would have to come to stand
still.
The numerous votes of the protestants
outweighed the Commissioners forty TO one
and the matter of extending the fire limits
was Indefinitely postponed.
Practically the same result attended the
scheme proposed months ago to include pretty
nearly the whole city in district within
which nothing but fireDroof roofing could be
used. The Drotestants numbered leglons,
and every one voter.
The limit, originally extending along De-
visaderO street and including all the Mis-
sion and new POtrero, was reduced TO the
present fire limits, which amounted prac-
tically 10 a complete defeat Of the scheme,
since nothing but ireproof roofing is al
lowed within the ire limits. The matter
was also laid over for one week to learn
whether or not the material specified in the
ordinance is really freproOf.
The application of Charles Boltz and John
Peters for permission to maintain a steam
engine and boiler Oh Douglass street. near
Seventeenth, was denied. The residents in
that neighbOrhoOd had discovered that il
is the fOTerunner of large brewery. and
they united in the vigorous protest that re-
shifted in defeat.

HAWAII'S QUEEN. i.
LiIiuokaIanPs Reported H1-Health Con

LiliuokaIanPs Reported Il1-Health Con-
sidered a Capard.
A report to the effect that Queen Liliuo-
kalani of the Hawaiian Kingdom was near
deaths door, and the truth of her condition
was being concealed, was published in yes
terday's edition of morning contempt
rary, and the rumor was claimed to be
based upon an authentic source.
The reason given for the coucealment of
Queen Liliuokalanps condition was stated to
be an intrigue for the possession of her
Government by Great Britain. Several per-
sons in this city, who are very conyersant
with Hawaiian affairs, were seen in regard
to the rumor, and were Inclined to laugh at
it. New Zealand Government Agent L. j.
Creighton stated that he had received ad-
vices by the Belgic, the latest steamer from
Hawaii, but in not one of them was there
any mention of any serious indisposition of
Queen LilIuokalan. On the contrary, the ad-
vices he did receive would lead him 10 be-
lieve that entirely the opposite was the
case.
The idea of the father of Princess Kau-
ilani, Mr.. Cleghorn, being in England TO Sc
cure any movement from that power to take
possession of Hawaii in the event Of the
Queens death is secuted as it is known that
his journey to England was for the purpose
oil visiting his daughter and Tor his health.
Hawaii's Consul Mr.. Mckinley, stated
that if the Queen was in Ill health he
had not been informed Of the matter, and in
regard to Great Britaln's desiring or at
tempting to gain possession OF the Kingdom
they had entirely abandoned that station,
the result Of an agreement made with the
UDlted States to see that the autonomy OF
the kingdom should be preserved. The en-
tire report is considered 10 be a mere canard.

Colonel W. H. Chamberlain Appointed
to the National League.

Colonel w. II. Chamberlain Appointed
to the National League.
Colonel W. II. Chamberlain, National
Bank Examiner, was the recipient OF high
honor yesterday. He received notice from
John S. Clarkson. ex-AssiStant Postmaster
General and President of the National Re-
publican League, of his appointment as
member of the National Committee of that
great political body.
Mr.. GARRISON said in his letter that the

General Backus, supported by Senators
Stanford and FELTON, and authorized by the
National Republican League. de further
expresses the desire to build up strong or
ganiZation of the league in California, and
says that Col. Chamberlain's wide reputa,
ton as an earnest and energetic political
worker leads him to believe that he is just
the man to accomplish this work.
This will put Mr.. Chamberlain in field
of labor that is only limited BY the bOunda-
ries of the State, and he expects to put on
the harness at once. His hrst work will be
the organization of new clubs and the in
fusion OF new blood all through the ranks
When that work is well in hand it will be
time for the State Convention, and Mr..
ClarksOn expresses perfect confidence that
by its choice Col. Chamberlain will be con-
tinued in the work.
Mr.. Clarkson's aim for the National
League is very high. He desires that it
shall become the normal school of Republic
can politics; that it's clubs shall invite the
young into membership and encourage the
discussion of political social and scientific
problems; indeed, lie would have these
clubs become Republican Rindergartens,
well stocked with political and other kinds
of literature, and the young encouraged to
develop in the broadcast possible manner.
1t is also the aim of the league that these
clubs shall become permanent institutions.
and to that end it is advised that the social
feature be not overlooked.
For the present Col. Chamberlain's head
quarters viii be at the Union League Club

Accidental Killing of Mrs. Sophia
Anderson.
She Is Shot Through the Forehead by Charles
Olsen, While the Latter Was Handling
an "Unloaded" Pistol

Charles Olsen did not know that his pistol

on Second street and bought secondhand

Olsen took charge of the pistol and placed
one cartridge in the chamber to see If it
would fit. Last night while waiting for
supper he VAS showing the new purchase
TO his wife. He pulled the trigger once or
twice, forgetting the presence of the car

His Heart Is on the Right Side.

Medical experts will shortly have a
chance to examine a most curious case
that of a young man suffering from pleurisy
and who has a mass of water in his left
lung so heavy that it has forced his heart
out OF its proper position downward and
over to the right side.
The young man is now patient at the
Home for CONSERVATIVES. Although very
weak, he is not confined to bed, and Is able
to walk around and wait on himself and
assist the feebler patients. He removed
the clothing from the upper part of
his body and gave visitor who
called to see him a chance to examine
him. There was marked differ.
efiee between the two sides of his body.
and the heart was found beating on the
right side just below the last rib. Another
patient was oblging enough to strip off his
shirt for comparison, and the remarkable
difference In the position of the hearts Of
the two men was apparent.
In order to relieve the young man it will
be necessary to make an incsiou and draw
off the water which has accumul lated in his
LETT lung. By thus relieving the pressure
the heart will be gradually allowed to 90
back to its proper place, which it is hoped
can be done without injury to the patient.
The case will attract great attention from
medical men, as such instances of heart re-
moval are very rare-Philadeiphia Special
