CARELESS OFFICIALS.
Papers in a PoIice-Court Case Mys-
teriOusIY DisaDDear.

a glazing miscarriage of justice from
gross carelessness occurred yesterday.
Some weeks ago F. Antoine, the rroprie-
tor of a frutstore at Fourth and Mission
streets, was held in Polire Court 2 10
answer before the Superior Court on a
charge of feloniously assaulting a girl Ii
years of age.
He was confined in jail pending the hear
ing OF the case in the Superior Court, but
yesterday Attorney Frey appeared before
Judge Seawell and applied for writ of
habeas corpus on behalf of Antoine.
1t was found that the papers in the case
had not been filed, and search In the
archives OF Police Court failed to discover
any trace OF them,
Judge Seawell had, accordingly, no other
recourse but to discharge the prisoner.
1t is more than probable that the police
authorities will not allow the case to rest,
but will take steps TO bring Antoine again
within the grasp of the law as soon as pos
sible.
What could have become Of the papers is
n mystery, but an investigation as TO their
disappearance will likely be made.
II Is only few weeks ago that a similar
case happened. when we'll known gam
bier was saved the trouble of trial in the
Superior Court owing TO the original COM
plant not being Forthcoming.

THE MORNING STAR
EventfuI Cruise of the
Missionary Bark.
Germans Object to Her Presence in
the Marshall Group-Natives
Murdered.

The American missionary steam bark
Morning Star, Captain G. F. Garland, made
her appearance in Honolulu harbor on the
morning of March q, somewhat uuex-
pectedly, as she was not looked for until
some time in May.
The Morning Star left Honolulu on June
IS. 1892, for years cruise among the
different Islands in the South Pacific She
touched at eleven Islands in the Gilbert
group during the fall, and at that time
passed by Ocean Island, belonging to the
Hawaiian Government. No signs of life
we're visible there. Trees were dried up by
the scoIching heat of the sun, and the Gov
eminent shed, built for aff0rding protection
to unfortunate castaways, was evidently
blown away, as nothing remainedIof it.
Fifteen different islands in the Marshall
group were visited by the Star. The Ger
mans protested against the Morning Star
cruising among this grOup, but the native
chiefs hailed her visit with delight The
natives are exhibiting a hostile attitude to-
ward their German neighbors, and the
presence of the Star among them was lust
as good to them as the coming of an Amer
lean mau-of-war would have been, so great
is their confidence in American power.
The natives Of Ruk are reported to be
carrying on civil revolution among them
selves and many lives have been lost as q
result of their discussions. At one OF the
Marshall islands three soldiers from the
Spanish settlement escaped and We're taken
in and fed for several weeks by native
family In the north end. in the dead of
night the men finally murdered the family
who had so kindly received them and re-
turned 10 their camp. Some time after
three innocent Spaniards we're found wash
ing in stream by some natives, who re-
venged the death of their people by attack
ing these three men and cutting them to
pieces.
The Morning Star visited the island of
Ponape in January. The Spanish Governor
received Mr. Rand very cordially and told
him that matters relating TO the recent mis-
sionary difficulties had been arranged be-
tween the two Governments. He expected
by the next steamer official auth nrizaton of
the return of the American missionaries,
but appearances would indicate that no
such return need be expected until United
State vessel shall reinstate the missionaries
in accordance with the agreement made by
the two Governments.
San Franciscans will remember the King
Of Butaritari. who visited America last year
and returned by the steamer Montserrat
Since his return lie has been lecturing TO
his people of the United States, but some
Of his accounts proved too much for the
Butaritaran credulity and on the arrival of
the Morning Star The people were all anx-
iOus to have Mrs. Garland, the captains
wife, confirm the marvellous stories OF their
ruler,

WILL 1T COME HERE ?
Professor Davidson on Locating the
Yerkes Telescope.

Professor Davidson said yesterday re-
garding the locating Of the Yerkes big tele-
scope:
''No, have heard nothing lately about
the placing oil the large glass, but suppose
that it will be located at Chicago as was the
original intention; but. however should II
come TO our State, even then do not THINK
that Pasadena would DC the lucky place.
There is no hill there that would be high
enough for the permanent location, their
only hill that approaches to anywhere near
the required height being inaccessible 1or
such Durp3se
"The place that would be the best is the
snow peak San Antonio. of $685. feet eleva-
ton, and not very far from Los Angeles III
a soGtheasterly direction.
Comparing the location with the pro-
posed site at Chicago | should say that 1t Is
very much better naturally, both from ell
mate aud accommodation.
The San Antonio location, which Is in
the Sierra Madre range, is one of the best
places on the coast for such an enterprise,
the northern part being altogether too cold
in winter for any consideration.
IF had the time and the necessary ma
terial for the plan | should like nothing
better than to establish just such an OBJ
seTvatory on that mountain as would be
founded should the Yerkes big glass travel
westward"

Not a Life Policy.

Regarding the decision by Judge CARRIER
in the suit of Hattie Shute against the Pa
cifc Mutual Lie Insurance Company an
errorous report was made in TIE morning
papers. Speaking of the matter yesterday
President George a Moore Of the company
said:
'The fact of the case is that Hodgdon.
deceased, was insured under an accident,
not under life policy.
"The cause of death, as found by the
court, was not such as entitled to recovery
and was not a risk assumed by the COM
pany.
$50 far as this case is concerned the
language Of the policy was identical with
that in general use by accident companies
Our accident policies are as liberal as those
issued by any other company, but the ma
ture of accident insurance is very different
from life Insurance and exceptions are
necessary and usual in the former, which
are not required in the latter case. Had
HOdgdOn been insured under one of our
life policies the claim would have been
promptly paid. but under an accident
policy the company declined TO acknowl-
edge liability and the court has sustained
its actinn -

KEEP OUT CHOLERA
The Cry of the State
Board of Health.
1t Is Setting to Work to Prevent the
Possible Advent of the Fell
Disease.

"Cholera shall not come this year." says
the California State Board Of Health, IF
we can prevent L."
A circular with the right ring to IL has
been sent out, in which DR.. {. A. Ruggles,
the president of the board, says in relation
to the convention to be held in this city on
the 18th:
ut must be apparent to all that the
opinions of practical sanitarians will at
this time have more than ordinary value.
with no impending epidemic, subjects
of this character are capable at best of
arousing but languid interest; but now,
when a few weeks may bring us to the test
of all our capabilities in the effort TO pre-
serve our lives. the subject is vital, qlrlle
and OF paramount importance.
THE people are Gisrosed 10 trust to quar-
antlne; sanitarians would render The soil
sterile to ontagious disease germs.
1T is believed that the convention will
serve twOfold purpose; the first Will be n
coordination of general action on the part
of the health boards and sanitaTians; the
next will be a process of education of the
people as to local needs and the importance
of prompt and thorough action.
ITO this end the newspapers of the coun-
try must be invoked for the dissemination
OF information.
"The potent influence Of the pulpit should
also be brought to assist in directing atten-
tiOn 10 the necessity of absolute personal
and municipal cleanliness as the price of
life.
mo influence which goes to distinguish
a high civilization from savage aud ignor-
ant state should he neglected, for by this
we demonstrate the value of our civilization
by our ability TO exist under conditions that
would annihiiate the savage.
In addition to the Interest of the physi-
clan in the prosecution OF his art in addi-
ton to the conserving interest of the
SanitarAn, there is the general interest of a
highly intelligent people who will. we may
wei! believe, Ivy their cooperation and as
sistance in removing all possible causes,
vindicate our bUasted civilization in render
ing impotent the dread diseases which
-deeimate less favored countries"

DINNER FOR A NICKEL.

The daily circular of commercial
agency issued yesterday gave notice that
the keeper Of the fve-cent restaurant was IN
trouble.
A reporter went to see the Five-Center
and was promptly told all about 1t.
Il owed a bill to the butcher SAID the
Fiye-Center, "and the Sheriff came down 10
attach me. He didn't attach. You don't
suppose I've been in this business all these
years Just for my health, do you?' l asked
him. Here's :he money. You don't put
no lock on my restaurant door.
And so the Five-Cehter was saved.
But about his restaurant?
Ii gives one square meal, and that is all
the best restaurant in the world can do.
But this particular eating place is, as was
said before, boon. Why, for what you
spend at an average restaurant for cup Of
coffee and doughnut, you can live almost
q week on at this place.
The firsi thing that meets the eye as one
passes the place is this sign:

A NOVEL INDUSTRY.
A Company to Be Formed to Can
Turtles.


Turtles.
Allen NJ Barry of New York, gentleman
who has recently been travelling in Lower Cal
ifoInia. was in this city Yesterday from Los
Angeles, on mis- way 10 Portland, Or, where
he is interested with number OF Oregon
ians in establishing cannery on the Bay
of Magdalena, lower California, for the
purpose of packing turtle-meat.
In regard 10 the novel enterprise, Mr.
Barry said that his company, if organized,
would charter small schooner next fall at
San Francisco anu send out an experimental
expedition.
Green turtles abound off the coast of
Lower California and northern coast Of
Mckee, said Mr.. Barry. Our company
would find no difficulty in obtaining plenty
of game. if you can term it such, and good
canned turtle is always in demand.
1--WE have only one nbstacle to overcome,
that is the hot climate Of Mexico. 1t may
be possible that we cannot successfully can
the goods there. but we intend TO make a
test before sending our vessel down."
Mr.. Barry stated that il his conn any was
incorporated it would be located in San
Francisco. as it would be more convenient
to have the goods shipped to this city than TO
Portland, Or.
