POET AND MUSICIAN.
Legal Strife Between a Honolulu
Versifer and a Composer.

II. W. Schmidt of Honolulu is a
merchant whose hours of relaxation
are devoted to the wooing of the
muses.. g. Sauvlet is a San Fran
ciscan whose specially is music. On
the last trip of the Sandwich ISL
ander to this city the pair met, and
the result was that the local compos-
er set to music the Hawaiian poets
latest effusion, entitled Hawaiian
Liberty" says the San Francisco
Examiner of August Both. Sauylet
claims that he did so at Schmidt's
request, while the merchant poet
claims that such was not the case.
They could come to no agreement,
and on the eve of his departure for
his island home Schmidt received a
letter requesting him to call at
lawyers Office
He ignored the matter, and on the
next day proceeded bag and baggage
on the Alameda. No sooner had he
installed himself than Sauvlet's at
torney appeared ON the scene, &C
companied by Deputy Sheriff. He
was proceeding to lay hands on the
baggage of the sweet singer of
Hawaii when John D. Spreckles in
terfered.
He informed the attorney that the
steamship company had given a
receipt for the travellers trunks and
that they could not be removed.
The result was that the merchant
poet departed with his belongings
for his tropical home, but not till he
had been served with a complaint
for $3.50 compensation brought by
the San Francisco musician. The
poet, not to be outdoue in politeness,
Immediately placed his case in the
hands af Delmss & Shortridge, and
soon the story of Hawaiian Liberty"
will be told in court.

SMUGGLING BY A SEALER.
Carrying Opium to Hawaii as Profit
able as Hunting Seals.

VICTORIA (B. C), Aug. 31.-The
owners and crew of the sealing
schooner South Bend, which left
here in April last and returned with
empty matches only q few weeks
since, do not appear to be particular
| ~ respondent over their hard luck.
In fact, though their voyage was a
fruitless one, SO far as the catch goes,
the men seem supplied with money
and can afford to indulge in the
luxuries of life even more freely
than fortunate sealsrs are wont to.
1t was after few days of such indul-
gence that one of the crew yesterday
supplied the context.
I'VE go sealing and come back
without skim" he said, "but we are
not losers, for we know better trick
OF course, we clear for the japan
coast on a hunting and fishing
cruise. That is part of the game.
But the only coast we saw was that
of Maui island, and the stores we
carried on the hunting and fishing
cruise looked much like dope to
those who did not know what they
really were. Who outfitted the
schooner Well, 1 think our ship
chambers name is Tai Yune. Billy
Stuart can tell you for certain.
You see opium is still profitable
thing to run to Hawaii, though it
takes more time and capital and in
wolves more risk than dropping it
across the line the old way, as we
used to. And then there aren't such
quick returns. 1t pays, though,
even if you have to do as we did and
lie around the islands couple of
months before getting a chance to
land anything"
The South Bend is one of the
smallest vessels ever fitted out for
sealing, and has had a checkered |
career, having been brought here
with contraband cargo, and being |
seized by the Canadian customs
officers. She was then bought at
sale by Captain Durham, her present
owner.

thought, would be permanent in
stitution. A vote of thanks was
passed to w. J. Cuelho, the chief
promoter of the institution, and he

marks. Mr.. Smith closed the meet
ng by announcing that the install

MORNING. FEBRUARY l. 1894

The torcible administration of poison
is by no means new thing in criminal
annals. The cases of Dolsky, in Odes-
sa, and of Leturier, in Montpelier,
will occur at once to any toXicologist
"And now came the great question

ter supposition. Political assassins
are only too glad to do their work and
to fly. This murder had, on the con-
trary, been done most deliberately,
and the perpetrator had left his tracks
all over the room, showing that. he
had been there all the time. 1t must
have been private wrong, and not
political one, which called for'such
methodical revenge. When the in
scription was discovered upon the wall

opinion. The thing was too evidently
u blind When the ring was found,
however, it settled the question.
Clearly the murderer had used it to
remind his victim of some dead or ali
