RACE TRACK ITEMS.
The September Meeting Promises
to be a Very Successful One.

The September Meeting Promises
to be Very Successful One.
Work has been commenced on
the track under the supervision of
NJ. r. Colburn, and from all APP
pearances it will be in fairly good
condition.
The stallion Amorino is still suf-
fering from slight cough.
The mile race between Duke
Spencer and Lord Brock promises
to be very hotly contested, as both
horses are in the pink of condition.
Mr.. Gus Schuman can be seen
driving his bay pacing mare every
afternoon.
The Lahaina stables have made
two new additions in the shape of
the we'll known horse Kinau and
bay mare by Shenandoah and
Idle Girl, who looks every inch a
race horse.
The 3-minute class, for trotters
and PAGERS, promises to be one of
the most interesting events of the
day, as there will probably be five
starters.
Johnny Hayward is looking we'll,
and will probably trot to pneu-
matte sulky.
From all indications the Kala-
kaua cup, 1 mile dash, for Hawai-
ian bred horses, will have five
starters and will make a race for
the sports to guess at.
C. NJ. Slocum deserves credit for
the condition of his horses.
Morton, the rider of Duke Spen-
Ger, seems wrapped up in his horse
and no doubt will ride hard to win.
The grey stallion Senator STAN
ford will not start in any of the
races at the coming meeting.
Lot Slocum, the old veteran cam
paigner, is a little lame, and does
not look as we'll as he did at Maui
last season.
Captain Cluney can be seen oc-
casionally on the track with his old
favorite Joe Dake, but will not en-
ter him for any of the races, as the
captain says he has already earned
his laurels.
Waikapu Maid deserves special
mention for her splendid appear
ance.

BIG OPIUM SEIZURE.
One Hundred and Seventy Tins
Captured Last Night by
Captain Parker.

About o'clock yesterday after
noon Police Captain Parker re-
paired TO the jewelry store of Tuen
Fat Chung, on Nuuanu street,
which is located on part of the
premises of All Swang, who is
known as wealthy retired Chi
nese merchant, and there took pos
session of trunk, which, upon in
vestigation, proved to contain he
tins of opium. The trunk was
sent to the police station, and
Yuen Fat Chung and All Swang
accompanied it. The latter per-
sonage was afterwards released on
bail.
During yesterday in an inter
view with Captain Parker it was
learned that a large quantity of
opium had been brought down on
the S. n. Castle in new barrels,
marked salt salmon. A couple of
days before the salt salmon barrels
were taken from the Castle, then
on the marine railway, and car
ried in an express wagon to the
residence Of Mrs. Lydia Chapman
on Punchbowl street. Yesterday
the contents of those barrels
(opium) were packed into two Or
three trunks. One Of these were
taken by a Portuguese express
driver to the store of Yuen Fat
Chung on Nuuanu street, as men
toned above, where Captain
Parker was enabled to locate it
through the aid of the Portuguese
driver who carried it there. One
of the other trunks was carried to
some place in Palama, and
Captain Parker has a clew to its
whereabouts as we'll as to the other
trunk.
Mrs. Lydia Chapman, who has
been arrested as an accessory in
the case, was employed in the
custom house as a female searchel
during the Cleghorn regime, and
when Mr.. Crabbe was port sur
veyor.

DEATH OF MRS. E. ORDWAY
She Succumbs To An Operation
Performed In San Francisco.

Performed In San Francisco.
The sad news of the death OF
Mrs. E. Ordway at San Fran
cisco was received by her sons
Yesterday by the Monowai. Mrs.
Ordway left here in company with
her son George, on May Oath last,
to visit her married daughter, Mrs.
A. Lydiatt, in San Francisco. 1t
was known to her sons when she
left that she was in poor health, as
she had been since the death of her
son, E. Ordway, about two years
ago, but her death was not anticl-
pated. The cause of her death was
the removal of an internal cancer
After the operation she improved
for some time, but suddenly took
relapse and died on August 10th.
Her remains were temporarily
placed in the receiving vault OF the
Oddfellows' cemetery at San Fran
cisco. Her last wish was to be
buried by the side of her son, who
was drowned while swimming in
the harbor here in 1892. 1t is at
present undecided whether her re-
mains will be brought here or those
of her son taken from here to San
Francisco. Mrs. Ordway was born
in Cleveland, Ohio, and was 50
years of age at the time of her
death. She leaves three sons
George A. Ordway, of the firm of
Ordway & Porter, w. f. Ordway,
U. J. Ordway-a daughter and two
grandchildren. The deceased lady
was an active and energetic mem
Der of the Women's Board and
other societies, both here and in
San Francisco, and her death will
be regretted by large circle of her
friends and acquaintances.

ARRIVED YESTERDAY.
Few Teachers from Ohio for The
KaWaiahao Seminary.


About five hundred citizens of
Bucyrus were at the depot Sunday
afternoon to bid farewell to the five
young ladies of this community
who left for the Hawaiian Islands
where they will remain for two
years engaged to educational du-
ties.
Three years ago in August 1890,
Miss Ida NJ. Pope left for Honolulu
to accept a position in the Kawaia-
hao seminary. This talented young
lady is one of the most efficient
teachers ever raised in this COM
munity. She is a graduate of Ober-
lin University and for many months
held a responsible position in one
of the educational institutions at
Columbus supported by the State
of Ohio.
Miss Pope remained teacher in
the seminary one year. The gen.
tlemen in charge of the seminary
appreciated her faithful efforts and
appointed her principal of the in
stitution. The education work
made rapid progress and the semi
nary was so successful that it was
determined to increase the corps of
teachers and add an industrial de-
partment to the work.
Last winter Miss Pope was grant
ed a vacation to visit some of the
best industrial schools of this ma
ton, and while in New York city
last winter she for several weeks
witnessed the work at the famous
Pratt Institute and other schools
Of the city. She was also given
authority to employ seven young
ladies to assist in Kawaiahao Sem
mary.
Among the seven teachers en-
ployed are three we'll known to the
citizens of this community, who
left Yesterday afternoon with Miss
Pope. These are Miss Bertha
Sears, Mrs. Ida Sturgeon and Miss
Jennie Denzer. Miss Sears gra-
duated from our public schools
with the class of 1887. Miss
Denzer will have charge Of the
work in her special line in the in
dustrial department, and a more
suitable selection could hardly be
made. And our citizens who are
best acquainted with Mrs. Stur-
geon have faith that her talents
will make her an efficient teacher.
Three others who have been en-
gagged will join the party before the
Bucyrus ladies reach San Fran
cisco.
The young ladies were accom-
panied as far as Chicago by Henry
Pope, who will remain two weeks
in that city, the ladies remaining
five days. Another member of the
party was Miss Nora Sturgeon,
who will reside with her mother in
Honolulu. The party will cross
the continent via Denver and Colo
RADIO Springs, and visit Miss Mabel
Holman at the latter place. They
will sail from San Francisco on
August II and reach Honolulu

DISCUSSING THE CASES.

Mantle's Chances for Seat Yet an I'm
known Quantity.
WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE committee
on privileges and elections hold session
this evening lasting about two hours and a
half. Only two cases were discussed, and
that, too. in an informal manner. They
were those Of Mantle and Beokwith, ap-
pointed by the governors Of Montana and
Wyoming respectively. Tho question be-
fore the committee is whether, it being the
beginning of full term. and the leeisla-
lures having refused to elect, certificates
from the governors are valid. and whether
the governor is authorized to appoint.
The conditions in the case of Allen,
of Washington, whose credentials have
not yet arrived. are somewhat different,
but the result appears to be the Same in ell
three cases, and it probably will be con-
sldered from the same basis. The commit
tee divided on the question and the division
was not drawn according to party lines.
There will probably BE- majority and
minority report. and this. it is thought,
will be the cause of a protracted debate,
with this end in view Of finally establishing
a precedent that shall be tho law of the
senate. The committee will meet again
Monday afternoon and the two senator's
elect will be permitted to come before the
committee and mako such statements as
they may see fit.

Senator Teller Says English Finan-

OF Silver
Which Result Can Be Hastened by
tho Resumption Of the
Conference.
Further Consideration of tho Cases o.
Mantle and Other Senatorial Ap- q.
pointees-NO Decision.

WASHINGTON, March EX-SENATOR Teller.
who hns already given notice OF his inten-
ton to take steps to cause the international
monetary conference to reconvene at
Brussels to-day, wns asked for an opinion
respecting the declaration of tho chancellor
OF the exchequer yesterday that the British
delegates would be instructed to oppose
overy b-metallist scheme presented at the
conference. The senator said the decara-
tion meant that Great Britain would alb
aolutely oppo4o the free coinage of silver on
terms of equality with gold; that is what
she has always done, and nobody expected
her to do any moro at this time. But thers
is nothing in this position irrecon-
cilable with the attainment Of the
object of tho conference, namely,
the moro extended use of silver
as money metal. In fact, there is evidence
to show that Great Britain really desired to
do something in that direction. Her
financiers realized the necessity for some
palliative measure to prevent
further depreciation of silver. which, if
continued, must result in the total destr uc-
ton OF the present monetary system. II
that occurred. the future of silver would be
assured, but nobody wished to adopt such
suit.
lie had no doubt England would be will
ing to support reasonable proposition
that is more practical than the Rothechild
scheme.
