REVOLUTIONS COMMITTEE REPORTs
Substance of the Declaration Adopted by
the Convention.

tEt
Immediately after the convention was
called TO order for the afternoon session
Senator Jones, of Arkansas, presented
the report of the committee on resolutions,
which he read as follows: "Silver and
gold coin have in all ages constituted the
money of the world, were the money of
the fathers OF the republic, the money Of
history and OF the constitution. The uni
yersal experience of mankind has de-
monstrated that the joint use of both sill
Yer and gold coin rs money constitutes
the most stable standard of value, and
that the full amount of both metals Is ne
ccssary rs u medium Of exchange.
THE decentralization OF either.ot these
historic money metals means an apprecia-
ton of the value of money, fall in
prices of commodities, n diminution OF
the profits OF legitimate business, n con.
tinuing increase in the burden of debts,
withdrawal of money from the channels
of trade and industry, where it no longer
yields n safe and sure return, and its idle
accumulation in the banks and in the
great money centers of the country"
The document then goes into an argu-
ment in favor of free coinage OF silver at
ls-to-l ratio and then proceeds: "Bcliev-
ing that it Is absolutely necessary to re-
verse the iniqu.tous and ruinous policy
We therefore resolve: That We favor the

capital of s35, 00o,vc is deprived Of its
charter. Two factions are battling for
control of the vast assets of the concern.
On the one hand is Joseph B. Greenhut
and his allies with their suits and coun-
ter suits, fighting for $500, ,0Jo of the stock
and nearly 81 UOJ coo of the company s

criticism of the British press. Cap

I'VE were we'll treated by the

to have an opportunity of again COM

FAREWELL TO C. F. PETERSON.
Pleasant Dance and Boating EXcur
sion-Cane Presented.

The boating party and dance
rendered C. f. Peterson by his
friends last night was an event
long to be remembered, both on
account of the utter lack Of formal
ity and the congeniality of those
present. Some thirty couples took
part in the pleasures Of the even
ing.
According to arrangement Mr..
Peterson's friends, together with
himself, were supposed to have
taken boats from Brewers wharf
and from there proceed to enjoy a
row in the harbor, with music and
fireworks to enliven the occasion.
The threatening sky put damper
on any such proceeding.
The party was taken to the Hea-
lani Boat Club house, where the
last part of the program was car
ried out first. The dancing fur
nished amusement for several
hours, the Hawaiian Club with its
usual good music, caused the
merry dancers to chase the hours
away.
After every third dance the Ka-
waihau Club rendered a song or
VIM. Herrick and L. de L. Ward a
guitar duet, furnishing the dancers
with enjoyment as well as time to
rest.
After the seventh dance, James
Holt presented beautiful silver
headed puhala wood cane to Mr..
Peterson. The word "Aloha " was
engraved on the head of the cane,
while on the side was the very neat
inscription &C. F. p, from Lei
lima Club, August Goth, 1895"
A card attached to the gift ex-
pressed appropriately the good fell
lowghip existing between himself
and the other members of the club.
At completion of the dance pro-
gram and supper, the party rowed |
around the harbor in a large barge |
and three small boats deliberately |
decorated with Japanese lanterns. !
Everything went off smoothly, fur |
the pleasure seekers with |
all the enjoyment desired.

ORIENTALLUXURP AT HOME

The wonders of the Orient lay re-
vealed before the eyes of all who care
to see them, and that, too, without it
being necessary to journey to lands
across the seas.
The Oriental never does any more
work than is necessary, and when not
working, his engrossing care is to
make himself comfortable. In many
respects the art of living appears bet
ter understood in the East than in
our busting Western world.
There is now hardly a fashionable
home that has not its Oriental room
or rooms, or at least its coZy corner;
sometimes the latter is Japanesque in
effect, sometimes Turkish; but what
ever it is, be sure it is the result of an
inner craving for the beautiful things
of life.

CHINESE WOMAN TRAPPED.
Caught Selling Opium - Marked
Coins Used-ExcitiDg Raid.


There was an exciting raid at an
early hour last night on the house
ola Chinese woman just back Of No.
5 engine house, David KAPPA and
his informers being the officers
who made the arrest.
In an interview with Officer
KAPPA last night, the following
story was learned:
"Having been on the track of
Chang Look Pc, a Chinese woman,
for some time, I decided that tonight
was the time to act. My informers
were posted outside the fence sur
rounding the Chinese shanty in
which the woman resides.
zone of my informers called to
her in q low tone and In very
short time was rewarded by seeing
her coming in his direction. He
asked her for fifty cents worth of
opium. She disappeared, but soon
after came out of the house with
the drug. Myself and assistant
advanced to the informer who was
doing the bargaining. The opium
was handed over and the marked
coins given in exchange.
SAT this moment [ seized the
woraan's arms, but as she was on
the other side of the fence my hold
was not as good as it might have
been under more favorable circun-
stances.
"The woman screamed and tried
to free herself, so I jumped over the
fence to get better hold, at this
moment she tossed the coins into
the air. We were fortunate after
wards in finding thirty-fve cents.
"When the woman screamed, we
heard rush in the house. Peer
ing in we discovered Cinnamon
running in all directions and
scrambling over fences like so
many distressed cats. Not until
we entered the house did the cause
for such sudden action become
known. A che ia game had been
in progress. Tickets were strewn
upon the floor, chairs overturned
and other articles broken.

which she claimed the officers took
