A PUZZLED OFFICIAL.
A New Kind of a Document
Sprung on Him.
He Does Not Know In What Particu-
lar Department of His Office 1t
Belongs.

County Recorder Sears found himself
with a new born girl baby on his hands
yesterday. He had no parental or pro-
prietary interest in it, but he didn't
know what to do with it and had to do
something. 1t happened in this way
The physician who had attended the
birth brought in to be recorded GER
tifcate of the transaction, setting forth
the date of the incident, the names Of
the parents and the sex of the babe.
No such instrument had ever been pre-
sented in the recorders Office before.
1t could not be entered in the book of
deeds; it would be equally out of place
in the volume of mortgages or the book
set aside for fac SMILES of cattle brands,
and would even be anamalous in the
miscellaneous book.
The recorder thought at first that he
would paste the certificate among the
plats of young and growing additions.
but on second thought there seemed TO
be an improperly in that disposition
of the matter. The authority for offer
ing such document for record is found
in the penal code of the revised statutes
in section 604, under the head OF
"Offenses Against the Public HEALTH"
The law does not, of course, mean that
the birth of babe is an offensive pro-
ceeding, but it does seem to require
that some account should be kept of it
go that in after ages there may be no
doubt that such a thing happened and
that such a man or woman as the babe
may have afterward grown to be
actually existed.
The wisdom and convenience OF
this arrangement ls apparent. A
good many people do not now
know whether or not to believe
that many persons eminent in an
tiquities or even in history ever lived
in fact. For instance, if proper sys-
tenn OF records had been kept there
would not be so many skeptics on the
subjects OF Homer, Jonah and other
prominent personages.

The Condition of Ha-

Explained by Minister
ThurStOn.
The Republic is in Very Pros

No Truth in the Report That Ha-
25 Cents on the Dollar.

By the Associated Press.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 26. - Minister
Thurston was seen today relative to a
statement that the Hawaiian govern
ment was selling bonds in this country
at 25 cents on the dollar for the purpose
of Influencing a feeling in favor of an
nexation.
Mr.. Thurston made the following
statement: There is no more posi-
bility OF such thing being done by the
Hawaiian government than by the
United States government. By law the
Hawaiian government can borrow
money for two purposes only, viz: first,
to pay postal savings bank depositors
in case the treasury is unable
to meet the demand; second, for the
purpose of constructing certain public
improvements, such as war vessels,
roads, bridges, harbors and public
buildings which together with the
amounts to be spent for each are speci-
fled in several acts authorizing loans
So far from being in trou BILE concerning
financial matters the provincial gov
ernment was and the republic is now
stronger in that department than in
any other.
'The continuous balance in the treas.
ury has ranged from 5000 900 to $40O,-
600. If 1t were true that the
royalists had not paid their taxes
it would make no sppreciable diff.
ference to the treasury as the
amount which they pay is very
small. As a matter of fact, however
the royalists have nearly all paid their
taxes, the delinquents being no greater
in mum ber and amount than usual.
'As to selling bonds in this country al
25 cents on the dollar there is not a
shadow OF truth in either part of the
statement. In the first place the sew
eral loan acts prohibit the issue ot
bonds at less than 80 cents on the dol
lar, and in the second place the govern

Can he save her?
Will he let go?
Such and many more were the horri-
fled exclamations of spectators Of the
balloon ascension at the race track Yes
terday afternoon as the great inflated
monster scared upward.
At the giving of the word every cord
of the parachute by which Hazel Keyes
expected to descend snapped and aloft
she sailed harnessed to the balloon by
singletcord. the parachute falling around
and about apparently entangling her in
its inextricable folds.
Her companion in the ascent had
cleared the earth safely and sat in his
loop as placed his parachute In its proper
position overhead. To and fro Miss

together and be saved by one parachute.
Once his leg was thrown as far as he
could in the direction OF the woman to
gather her to him if possible, but in
vain. The balloon all the time was as
cending rapidly and appeared no larger
had sunk to the size of dolls.
Up, up, up it went, dragging its help
lesa human freight hundreds of feet
higher than the elevation from which
they had calculated to drop. Suddenly
it was seen to be slowly descending to
earth again. The distance traversed
toward the southwest, IN which dires-
ton the light wind was blowing. was
not over quarter of a mile. Down al
most perpendicularly it came. the aero
nauts still holding on the man in the
harness of rope and the woman family
struggling.
"They will light in the river, sure.D
was the cry OF many.
Into the river they did fall a few
minutes later. AS the balloon nesred
terra firma it descended rapidly, and as
if to break the force OF the fall when
over the turgid stream both let go and
dropped some twenty feet into the
water, landing close to the bank. The
woman's trunks were torn, her left
knee considerably bruised and she was
plainly upon the point OF losing COR
sciousness.
Two men endeavored to support her
across the stream, but the waters
rushed too swiftly and she was placed

DoN1PHAN's TREASURER SHORT.
A Deficit of $1,000 in the Accounts OF
NJ Bauer.

NJ. Bauer.
ATCHIsoN, May 3.-Doniphan county
has just discovered a defaIcation in the
county treasury. NJ. Bauer, man who
had the confidence of everybody and
who retired from the office of county
treasurer last fall, after serving two
terms. is short in his accounts to the
amount Of $1,000. Bauer is a farmer,
and it is believed that the money was
lost in cattle dealing.
Bauer, during his term of Office, did
not allow his deputy to touch the jour
nal, the day book, the ledger, or the cash
book, which he kept himself Bauer's
successor, Mr.. Devereux, took posses
sion of the office last October. Bauer
was not prepared to make a full state
ment, but he was so well thought of that
this fact did not even attract suspicion.
Devereux urged him from time to time
to fix the matter up, but it was delayed.
The time for the new treasurer to
make his quarterly report came around,
but he could not make it with the pend
ing shortage. The defalcation was Sc
cretly guarded, however, until this week
when Bauer gave his bondsmen a deed
TO his property, worth 81, 300. No arrests
have been made, and it is said that
Bauer will be able to raise the necessary
amount to make his shortage good, and
in this way avoid punishment
