Joining the Rice Extravaganza company.
There she met a wealthy man named
Richard Laird, of the firm OF Laird &
Ray, of Pittsburg. Mr.. Laird induced
her to go TO Pittsburg and she lived with
him there for several months, being known
as Mrs. Laird. Last August the
woman 1t Is said, insisted on ceremony
of marriage being performed and a quar-
voked by Laird and Miss Hathaway was
accompanied fifty miles on an eastward
Journey toward New York by Pittsburg
officer. When relieved of her escort she
very promptly returned to Pittsburg and
prosecuted Laird Immediately for his part
in her forcible removal from the city. She
succeeded in having him fined. She then
began suit for breach of promise against
Laird, ex-District Attorney Archibald I'll.

This action was pending at the time of
her death. Miss Hathaway is described

the daughter Of wealthy parents: She
eloped from an Iowa seminary at the age
of II and was disowned by her father, and
when deserted by her husband within
two years after their marriage, would not
seek a reconciliation with her family, but
came east. Often, it is said, she tried to
get out of the life she was leading, and at
one time was about to become trained
nurse, but was dissuaded by Mr.. Laird.
She was 30 wears old.

HAWAII is FREE.
NOT A SENTENCE IMPOSING DEATH
IMPOSED UPON A SINGLE
REVOLUTIONIST.
President Dole Says Not Single
Man Will Serve Out His SEN
tence if He Behaves
Himself; He Has
Acted for the
Best.

New YORK, March 21.-A special to the
the World says: The recent Hawaiian
revolution is a thing of the past. Less
than a week ago the judge advocate OF the
military commission announced that the
government had no more cases of treason
to bring before that body. The last lot
of prisoners sentenced were - ragged and
poverty stricken natives who were given
a brief trial occupying less than an hours
time and WERE hustled off to the peni-
Tertiary as one man. Twenty three of
these natives were each sentenced to five
years Imprisonment and two were given
six wears each. No one seems to know
what action will be taken in the eX
Queens case who is in one of the rooms
at the palace. The eX-Queen continues
in good health. At the conclusion of her
trial. which occupied but six days, a we'll
known American and some of the more
prominent women of Honolulu called
twice upon President Dole to ihterCede in
her behalf. Generous offers were made
to have her released on bond. But the
government refused to consider the queS-
tion.
Over 300 political prisoners have been
sentenced to terms of Imprisonment in
the penitentiary and full hundred 9TH
erS have either been baniShed or released
on parole. One thing Is certain there Will
be no capital punishment.
of the Grand Army of the Republic, will
be more than 100 years old, when he has
served out his time, if he lives until then.
The American prisoner, Seward, after
having received his thirty-fve years
sentence to the penitentiary, made a
piteoLs and pathetic appeal to President
Dole. Upon behalf Of Major Seward and
at his request. Joaquin Miller undertook
TO carry President Dole message asking
for mercy. Its substance was an entreaty
by Seward to be taken out and shot
rather than imprisonment. When the
message was delivered 10 President Dole
he was startled not a little. He is a man
of imposing presence and courteous and
kind to agree. After being told and re-
told that Seward insisted upon being shot,
the President made his final statement.
II don't think there is a man in that
prison, who was adjudged guilty of a po
iitical crime, who will have to serve out
his sentence, If he does what is right We
have done what we considered best for
them

New YORK, March 2l.-A special from
Nassau says: Additional news continues

troubles in the l. St The la est and most
startling news yet noted is that Mencada,
the Negro leader of band near GuaDta-

turn the revolution into race war. 1t Is
also reported that Guilleman MO1cada
surprised laI ge detachment OF Spanish
troops near Guantanamo recently and
routed them. In their battle, IL is said,
two thousand Spaniards were killed and
wounded.
This was followed by inhUman treat
ment OF the SpaniardS by the rebels.
This is probably the same battle reported
by the SpaniardS as a victory for their
troops, led by Col. SantOclideS. At that
time ii was reported that fifty OF the in

There was but one white man in Men

Mencada's aim seems to be to make an
other San Domingo Of Cuba. His attitude
is depored by the sympathizers OF the
revolutionary movement. IL is reported
that some attempt will soon be made by
the leadears to form provisional govern

CINCINNATI, O., March 21.-The Com

burg. says: while the eX-employes of
the Mitchell Brick yards were cleaning
the pits for spring work, they discovered
a human hand. The skeleton was in

Indicating that they had been deposited
in the strange sepulchre many years ago.
But how they came to be that great depth

by the skeleton had been in primitive
times used as vel, and the remains we're

THE SOUTH CAROLINA CASES.
viii Attract Much Attention When
Brought Before the Supreme Court.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. 19.-The
South Carolina registration cases, which,
under the order of Justice Harlan, are
to be brought before the Supreme Court,
will attract more than ordinary atten-
ton, because the appeal allowed by
Justice Harlan was taken from decision
made by Chief Justice Fuller, sitting as
circuit Justice with District Judges
Hughes and seymour, and composing
court Of appeals.
The action of Justice Harlan does not
reverse or ovcrturn the opinion Of Chief
Justice Fuller, but allows the case to be
brought before the Supreme court for
final adjudication. The granting of the
appeal, however. acts as a stay upon the
Judgment Of the court of appeals in
which tie Chief Justice sat, and pre-
vents the dissolution Of the restraining
order granted by Circuit Judge Golf
