Rum0rs of the Reopening of Labor
Question.

RumOrs of the Reopening of n Labor
Question.
1t is understood in labor circles that on
tomorrow evening there will be confer
ence between representatives of ;he Fed
Grafton of Labor, District Assembly No.
&C, knights of Labor, and Columbia Type
graphical Union, for the purpose of deter
mining the relations existing between the
organizations indicated and the Lyceum
Theater. Three years ago the manage
ment Of the Lyceum came in conflict with
organized labor by reason of the employ
ment in the orchestra CT a musician whose
membership in the musical union, by rea-
son of non-payEaent Of dues, had lapsed.
This was the starting point of contro-
versy which resulted in boycott against
the theater. Concessions were made and
the incident closed. 1t Is alleged by the
representatives of organized labor in the
District that non-union men have since
been employed. In a talk this afternoon
with a reporter for The Star, Manager
Herman stated that no non-union men were
employed about the theater He paid union
wages and employed union men. He did
this not only because it was to his interest
to do so, but because personally he was
n believer in the effectiveness for good of
labor ORGANIZATIONS. He had understood
that several men not members of unions
had worked about the house when it was
remodeled but this was contract work,
and he did not have direct control of the
men. His contracts all read that only
union men are to be employed on any
work which he contracts for He did not
know that there was trouble In the air,
but thought that if there was 1t could be
readily adjusted.

week. On a recent Sunday the
gentleman hitched up, and, having
assisted his wife into the carriage,
got in himself. He was busted for
a moment in arranging the robe,
and before he had taken up the
reins the horse started out of the
yard into the street. His purpose
was to attend church, and, as the
horse took that direction, he decid-
ed to let her go without guiding, to
see what she would do. The route
is altogether different from that
taken in the weekday driving.
He left the reins hanging over the
dasher, but, nevertheless, was car
ried as straight to the church as he
would have gone if he had turned
the horse. Without word when
the mare had turned up to the
church door and the carriage was
in position at the steps, the mare
stopped for his master to alight.

"There's justice of the peace in

said a bicycler to q Buffalo Express
man recently, "who has scheme
that will make him a millionaire if
he sticks to it for year or two.
"You see the town has an ordin-
ance forbidding bicycle riding on
the sidewalks. A good many wheel
men &C that way, SO what does this
justice do but scoop out hole and
make a great big mud puddle clear
across the street right in front of
his office. Ofcourse, when a wheel
man comes along, rather than ride
through the mud, he turns upon the
sidewalk. That's what the justice
is waiting for. He has constable

and nab the cycler. II was caught

HAD A HARD TIME OFT.
The Little Tale Of Woe" Told by
a Native.

The vicissitudes of fortune at
tending revolutions, martial law,
etc., cannot be better told than in
the story of a native, who having
received word to go to the front,
started out on horseback valiantly
enough. He was a little late in
getting there, and somewhere about
Diamond Head some ruthless P. G.
soldiers captured him. He was
sent to Oahu prison and his horse
confscated. He was thrown into
a cell with five others who took
turns in using the only two ham
mocks provided and never saw day
light for five days, after which he
was transferred to the barracks.
In the jail he got a pannikin of
tea and two biscuits twice a day.
When he went in he was a very
corpulent native; W hen he came
out he had to tie his pants round
his waist with a piece of rope to
keep them from falling off. After
being transferred to the barracks he
Jared better, getting fish and poi in
place of tea and crackers. A few
days after this he was released on
general principles.
After getting a good meal he
started to look for his horse and
finally got track of it. It was in
the pound and was to be sold at
auction. Those ruthless P. G. SOL
diers had turned the animal loose
and the pound man had got him.
The animal was sold for So and
the man who bid him in charged
the owner SIS for his trouble and
the loan Of the money. The sad
die he found in possession of an
other native at Moanalua and ex-
poets to have a lawsuit before he
can obtain it. He is still looking
for the bride. This particular
native is quite satisfied with the
as far as it has gone and
is quite willing to quit.

TIE MORNING STAR.
She Has Been Heard From as Late
as September 29th.

Letters have been received from
Captain Garland of the Morning
Star, the last date being at Jaluij.
September 29th. The Star had
visited Ruk, leaving Mr.. and Mrs.
Price and taking Miss Foss to
Kasaie. There had been no fight
ing of late on Ruk. On touching
at Ponape those who were on board
were not permitted to communi-
cate with any native. The mail
for Henry Nanpei was left with the
governor, but the books could not
be landed under any condition.
The natives came out in their
canoes but were ordered back, very
much to their distress. This po-
licy on the part of Spanish rulers
is both cruel and foolish, for they
ought to know that the Christian
people on Ponape might be made
their best subjects. When the Star
was at Jaluii she had just entered
upon her annual tour through the
Marshall Islands, having on board
D.. and Mrs. Rice, Miss Hoppin
and Miss Palmer. They report
very kind reception by the German
Commissioner, a new man, who
has his wife and three children
with him. The commissioner in
vited the whole party to lunch
with him and very pleasant time
was enjoyed. Good reports were
received from the churches on
Ebon and Jaluii.

CAPTAIN larsen Retires.

For reasons best known to him
self, Marshal Hitchcock has de-
manded the resignation of Captain
William Larsen, chief of detect
ives. 1t was presented and ac-
cepted yesterday at noon. No
charges were preferred against
Larsen on the contrary, the Mar
shall speaks very highly of MIN as
an officer. Political reasons were
probably at the bottom of the mat
ter, especially as Larsen has many
enemies.
