WILCOX, IRE REVoIUTIoNIsT.
His Has Been a Career of Pernicious A,
 tfyity In Hawaii

Robert L. Wilcox, the leader of the late royalist insurrection in Hawaii. seems to be a chronic revolutionist, one of those enterprising adyenturers who are continually plotting sedition against the prevailing government, whatever it may be. He has stood on all sides of all questions in Hawaii and has participat- ed ill several abortive revolutions, the last of which Was the most pretentious.
 Wilcox is a native of Hawaii and is about 50 years old. He was the especial protege of King Kalakaua and was sent by that monarch to the Royal Military institute at Turin, Italy, where he spent five years. He returned to Honolulu with an Italian bride, Miss Jina Sobrero, the daughter of an Italian army officer
 Kalakaua soon found the young military genius an expensive luxury and shipped him to San Francisco to shift for him.

NEEDED CHANGES IN BILLIARDS

A revival of public interest in billiards is devouted!y hoped for ny all true lovers of the grand old game. Such a revival may with some degree of confidence be an ticipatcd if the great match between Mau- rice NignauX, the champion of France, and Frank C.

Should A substantial sum of money be posted by both principals and tho match become an assured fact, widespread interest would certainly be aroused and billiardistic revival similar to that of 1S7G7.S would be probable.

"Those men who enlisted early and
fought the battles of the war were not
moved by mercenary considerations, and
unless actually disa bed did not STOW the
haste in applying for pensions manifest
ed by those who enlisted near the
close Of the war for large bounties
and did little actual service, and who
are now the noisiest in Clamoring for
more pensions. AS compared with this
tier class the real soldiers of the war
have been modest in preferring claims
for pensions" "
The cOmmissi ner saws that many dis
reputable and incompetent men ere en-
gagged as pension attorneys and suggest
that none but reputable members Of the
bar be allowed to practice in pension
cases.
