OBITUARY..
Charles e. irish.

Mr.. Charles E. Irish died at his home
in this city last night. Mr.. Irish was for
some time clerk at the City Hotel and
was widely known. He was 81 years old.
His wife survives him.
William Otis King.
William Otis King, well known
farmer in Oxford county, died inAParis
Saturday the 21st instant. He was the
youngest of eleven children born to
Capt. Samuel and Sally Hall King, ten of
whom have families. Nearly one
hundred years ago Samuel King of
Raynham, Mass, housewright, came
with his uncle Jairus Shaw and settled
in the then new town of Paris. He
bought a large tract Of land of Asa Bar
rows in 1877 on the northerly slope of
the Singepole, a slightly place-the
views from it are of marvellous beauty.
To the small cottage of Mr.. Barrows he
added somewhat pretentious house,
and built numerous farm buildings con-
venient thereto. He work some at his
trade, but the most of his time was de-
voted to the farm, which yielded him
good health, long life and prosperity.
William, the subject Of this sketch, was
born August G., 1920, and married Mary
Ann Clifford, the daughter of a neighbor.
They lived at the homestead, and when
the intirmities of age came to the
parents, they took the farm and assumed
the care of their declining years. Most
faithfully and lovingly they discharged
the trust, winning thereby not only the
reward of a good conscience but the
gratitude of numerous kindred. Mr..
King was somewhat above medium
height of more than common strength, a
thrifty man. He was interested in every
thing pertaining to husbandry, labor was
to him pleasure and work pastime.
Life was never to him burden but al
ways success. His wife fitting COM
panion for such "a man survives him. OF
their eight children three only are living,
namely, j.. Ferd., a member of Oxford
Bar, and prominent Freemason, lives
on the home farm; Emma c.; wife OF
Albert L. Holmes of South Paris, and
Josephine F., member of the senior
class in Bates College.

WEsTBROoK CITY AFFAIRS.
Action Respecting Streets and Sewers
Election Officers Named.

A regular meeting of the Westbrook
City Council was held last evening.
Providing for Sewers.
The report of the City Engineer was
received as to sewers on Lincoln and
Bridge streets, to discharge into the riv-
er direct, at a cost of between 500 and
$500, perhaps two-thirds of which would
be returned to the city by assessments.
Alderman Skates reported favorably for
the construction of the sewers.
President Warren stated that the city
was under a great deal of embarrassment
for lack Of a complete system of sewer
age.
Alderman Babb thought the sewer, as

ticket was also decided in the Leong
Team case. It must be presumed
that the Chinese, in procuring his
permit in China, knew it to be a
fraud. It is true the law does not
say the permit to return is only 49,
sued to those who appear at the For
eign Office and there get the right TO
return. But such must be the intent
of the law and il must be SO under
stood.
While it may be the best policy to
take bond from the steamer, and to
examine the passport before permit
ting the immigrant to land, it is not
the law, and the customs authorities
may take their own course. In this
matter they chose a different course
and the men were landed. They
landed with the premeditated inten-
ton to break the laws of the country.
They are liable to the penalty and
must pay it. The case of Leong
Man q Haw.) is also in point. where
the Court upheld the law preventing
the landing of Chinese.
The law requires the defendant to
show that he had permit valid to
himself to land. This is only on the
same footing with those laws requir-
ing a defendant in liquor cases to
show his license. They have been
upheld. This should be.
The United States cases decided
that the various laws upset by them
were infringements on the authority
of the United States in the premises.
Here the prosecution stands on the
same footing as the United States.
Upon a review of all the authorities,
it is clear that the Judgment below
should be affirmed.
Mr.. Castle replied very briefly for
appellant, the briefs were handed in
and the Court took the case into con
sideration.
The decision will be awaited with
great interest. The session of the
Legislature is so near at hand that
if the law were declared unconstitu-
tional there could not be any great
influx of Chinese, for another law
could soon be passed to cover the de
fects in the Act of 1888.

1T THE OPERA HOUSE,.
a Snail audience Entertained by
Good Concert.
Miss Won Gerichfen Scores a
Success.

The entertainment given at the
Opera House on Saturday night by
Miss n. Won Gerichten was delight
full one, and successful from every
point of view, except the financial.
This was certainly due to the fact
that Miss Won Gerichten is unfortu
nately little known in Honolulu, and
the public generally had had no OPP
portunity to judge of her attain
ments. Had people generally known
how sound were her claims to recog-
milton, I feel sure that the Opera
House, Saturday night, would have
been crowded with those who were
anxious to hear her.
will not stop to describe in detail
all the good things of the evening.
Miss Won Gerichten was ably assisted
by Mr.. Berger with the Hawaiian
Band, by selected native choir, and
by Messrs. Grosskurth and Pessatti,
Of the San Francisco band.
The Band played and sang most
acceptably, and the fine baritone
voice of Dan Moe rang ont finely, as
did that also Of the crack songsters
of the native choir, Miss Mele Spaul-
ding. The Tyrolean dance by the
four pupils of Miss -Gerichten
was pleasing, while the dances of
little Maud Stevenson and Bertha
Heine delighted the house. reflect
ing the greatest credit on
the performers and the young
lady from whom they received their
instruction. Of Messrs. Grosskurth
and Pessalti, of the San Francisco
Band, it is not too much to say that
l, at least, think they are genuine
artists, and it was clear the audience
thought so too.
1t would be difficult to say in
which one of Miss Won Gerichten's
roles this versatile young lady won
the most laurels. Gifted by Nature
with a fine voice, she sings charm
ingly, while she recites with simple
ity, naturalness and true feeling.
Her rendering of Home, Sweet Home
with variations on tie violin,-an in
strument Of which she does not pre-
tend 10 be master-brought down
the house. The dance-the Sailors
Hornpipe-was carried through with
a dash and grace which showed Miss
Won Gerichten to be thoroughly com
petent to teach everything which any
one can wish to learn about dancing
Finally, in her rendering of Weber's
brilliant AID difficult Invitation to
the Dance" Miss Won Gerichten ap-
peareG as a true musician. She has
been playing the piano from her
childhood, and exhibits evidence of
good teaching as we'll as great ma
tural talent. Miss Won Gerichten's
modest and unaffected lnanaers
added greatly to the cordiality
with which she was received by the
audience. !.
The greatest credit is due to Mr..
Berger, whose kind heart always
places his untiring industry and
great musical proficiency at the SER
vice of his brother and sister must

cause. MUsIcA.

YOU, Or SOMEONE

of your family are, no doubt,
troubled with headaches.
If you are in doubt what to use
to relieve it, possibly some one of
the following remedies might be of
benefit to the sufferer:
MEGRlMINE CAPSULES con-
sist of combination of several of
the best known medicines obtained
from the vegetable kingdom.
WAMPOLE'S BROMO-PY-
RINE, a combination Of bromides
with antipyrine is, no doubt, an
excellent remedy. 1t resembles
the GRADUATED Citrate of Mague-
STA, the well known laxative. It
is administered in the same man
ner. It has an agreeable taste !;
and is considered especially use
full in case Of Observation-Disclosures
with mental exhaustion and ner-
vous depression.
PHENACETINE TABLETS
AND ANTIPYRINE TABLETS
are well known remedies and are
considered safe and efficient in
most cases.
BROMO- CAFFEINE AND
BROMO = SODA are remedies
which have very large sale. They
are particularly good in nervous
complaints and have been found
useful as representatives. in seasick-
ness.
There is only one way of using
these remedies for latter trouble
and that is to commence a day or
two before going to sea.
EYE GLASSES OR SPECTA-
Giles are sometimes found to be in
many instances, the remedy for
headache, poor eyesight being the
cause of that trouble. Cali at the
new Drug Store for any one of these
articles should you need them.

HOTEL CONCERT.

A Combined Concert to be Given

Tonight.
The Flagship and the Hawaiian
bands will give a concert at the

everybody. The first piece is
called Sounds from Near and
Afar." To successfully render this
piece an echo is required and will
be furnished by several band boys
stationed in the cupola of. the
Hotel with instruments.
The second number is a comical
musical contest, and is very anus
ing. Each man plays q short solo
on his instrument, and when fin
ished he receives laughter and
shouts of derision for his efforts.
After the concert 1t is expected

pearance. The mural decorations

A Sensational Report Turns Ont

A Sensational Report Turns Ont
To Be Unfounded.
Yesterday report was current
that three men had been arrested
and charged with numbering the
Chinaman who was found floating
in the bay about week ago. The
story related how the men were
piled with liquor until they were
drunk and then gave the informa-
ton that fastened the crime on
their own shoulders. By inquiring
at the Police Station last evening
it was learned that two men were
arrested on Saturday evening. One
was drunk, and during conversa-
ton remarked that he knew some
thing about the murder. The po-
lice were informed of the occurrence
and had the man and his compan-
ion taken to the station.
The man was questioned yester-
day, but in the opinion of the Off
Gals he is not the man wanted.
The arrested one is native and is
employed as a fireman ON board
the steamer Pele. Both men are
held on a charge of drunkenness.
