about the circumstance.

THAT JOYFUL FEELING.

With the exhilarating sense OF renewed
health and strength and internal clean
illness, which follows the use of Syrup of
Figs, is unknown to the few who have
not progressed beyond the old time med
icines and the cheap substitutes some
times offered but never accepted by the
well informed.

hhteT Defeiopmeut
tion Of . Day.
The tug returned to port at AGO
yesterday afternoon, after having
steamed about twenty miles South.
She saw nothing of the boat said
to have been sighted off Puuloa.
THE STAR was mistaken in
locating the opening Of the sensa-
ton yesterday at Waialua instead
of Kalihi and mixing Arch Maha
ulu up in 1t instead Of Sam Maize
Iona. There is now only the state
ment Of the latter that the men in
the boat were seen at all. 1t is
believed the party seen by the
mounted police were other men,
bers of the department. If this is
correct, it is certain the dope
was landed and the druggists made
their escape between two big
moons.
The scare is still mystery. Cap
tain Cook despatched a guard to
Makapu Point. The men returned
and reported nothing in sight. A
close watch and desultory search
has been maintained on this island
without resulting in a find. By
some the whole story is doubted
others believe the men said to have
been seen were opium smugglers.
Reports from Maui, Hawaii and
Kauai are, in effect, that all is
serene. None of these islands have
yet met the filibusters.
Officials are still reticent on the
the matter. Some anxiety is APP
parent and there is disposition tc
sift it to the bottom. Marshal
Brown was brief in his answer to a
request for information. He said
II have no solution to the filibuster
matter. Know nothing except the
reports brought in, which were
published. Wish / did"

THE New York Sun expresses thought
that is in us in incompatible language. We
quote it: "Reasonable humanity draws
back in revulsion from the thought that
under her sentence MARIA BARBERr is
to be killed by men; but it is not because
there was any excuse or there can be any
pallistion for her horrible crime. 1t is
simply because she Is woman that the
communication of her sentence to imprison-
ment for life Is demanded by the decency
of society. She should never again be
outside OF prison doors; and it is all the
more requisite that her punishment
should be thus severe because OF the evil
example which would come from the
success OF the efforts, prompted by per-
verted impulses, that are exerted to save
her from the merited penalty for her
atrocious crime and release her to receive
adulation as a noble avenger OF woman
hood"

| They are OF the kind that distinguish the
old and hardened thief. We do not know
as there can be mitigating circumstances.
And yet the amazing exploits of this
young man pass understanding They are
not properly subject for a newspaper
sensation nor are the eaptyre and the incar-
ceration of the fellow matter of rejolc-
ing as at the triumph of law over the
cleverness of crime There is something
beyond all this, in this young mans case
something besides the ordinary moral
applicable to a East young man gone
wrong, which is always SO easy to draw
offhand. Professors who study the hui
man product in the unique phases 1t not
infrequently exposes will find, we think,
a subject of pathetic interest in BENJAMIN
DUNN JONES. IL he had attempted to
commit suicide or TO murder or to do any
other outrageous thing we have no doubt
everybody who had knowledge OF his en-
vironment, natural parts and youthfulness
would have been ready to declare that he
was suffering from a form of insanity
Being a common thief, we suppose he
will not so readily be accorded that mea-
sure of pardon. But il seems TO us that
there is something irregular in the mental
makeup OF this young man TO have dis
posed him to do the things that other
young men OF his environment have no
disposition to do. Which is why we pity
him.
And we pity the mother OF BENJAMIN

BENJAMIN DUNN JONES,

We are sorry for BENJAMIN DUNN
JONES, the bright young fellow who has
but just reached manhood's years, but
who has been discovered at the end OF a
series OF inexcusable crimes that are
amazing for the boldness of their execu.
tion as tor their number.
We are not sorry that he has been
caught. We can only regret that he was
not caught earlier. He would not have
had no much TO suffer for and an evident
disposition to crime might have been
more easily diverted. There is doubtless
plenty of opportunity for moraiizing in
the case OF BENJAMIN DUNN JONES and a
good deal OF moralizing may doubtless be
INDUCED in that does not apply very
closely. The plain fact is, however,
that this young man Is In the hands
of the law suspected of thieving
enough I'm two states TO imprison
him for good part OF his life,
should he be convicted and fully sem
teneed on the several charges, not to
mention the severe penalties which the
United States imposes should he he found
guilty of having robbed Uncle Sam OF the
smallest amount.
Unaer the law his offences are heinous.
