AMUSEMENT

The Best of All. "rown Topics" at tho
Academy Thursday Night.
Among the principals CT the "Tcwn
Topics" Company, which will appear at
the Academy OF Music next Thursday
light, are Wood and Shepard. the we'll
known musical comedians. They are
not bit like other comedians; their
originality extends to the farcical
sketches AMI burlesques. which have
been given from time to time. Shep-
ard, who il the taller Of the two, was
intended by hie parents for the pulpit,
but at the college he developed talent
for ministrelsy, 30 that when he came
out into the world he easily broke into
minstrel company.
There he met Wood, who had been
hanging around the door Of minstrel
theatre in Philadelphia oince boyhood.
Wood had already INSIDE his reputation
al q wonderful imitaIor OF the A merics an
co!ored brott'r, and Manager Carncroes
lever regretted giving him the FIRST
chance. The two ninstrels worked
together on one act, and 1t was such
go they resolved 10 form partnership
and start out for themselves. They
have found the alliance agreeable and
profitable ever eince. Both of them are
skilful musicians ss we'll as comedians.
Shepard plays the piano with uncom-
mon skill, sod Wood has more th.n once
astonished musicians by tho oeIicacy Of
his touch In mastering OF technique in
his pt rformancs upon the violoncello
Both c.n blow good deal Of music
out OF the cornes. They subordinate
their musical efforts to the fun making
which has made them popular. Nothing
Ia more laughable than their sketch in
which colored sport, played by Wood,
comes back from the races with long
roll OF "the long green" in his inside
pocket. Chains and paddock protect the
treasure, but robber gets the best of
the dusky plnnger all the same. Thor
burlesque ofascene from I'll Trova.ore"
is another absurdly funny act. They
will do something new on this visit.

THURST0N GOING HOME
The Hawaiian Minister Packs His Grip
and LsaVas Washington.
HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED
That Is as Far as He Knows-He
WIN Sail For Honolulu Some
Time During the Conn
ing Week.

| WASHINGTON, March 26. - Minister
Thurston, who leaves Washington to-mor-
| row or next day and sails from San Fran
! cisco April + on the Arrowa, gave out the
following authorized statement to-day:
II have received no information from
my government or from Gresham that
my recall has been requested, and up to
the present time there has been no change
of ny political relations at tho state de-
partment. Whether my recall has been
requested or not, do not know. In any
event, shall not remain in Washington.
There is nothing of especial Importance
to keep me here at present, while there
arc several matters requiring my atten-
tion at home. shall therefore return to
Honolulu Immediately, leaving San
Francisco April L."
Thurston declines TO discuss any details
OF his departure or the significance of it
pending IA request for his recall. Frank
=. Hanskings, secretary of the legation,
will become charge d'affaires for Hawaii.
1t is understood that Mrs. Thurston will
not take the trip with her husband, but
will visit relatives in Michigan.
In some quarters Thurston's move is
regarded as a shrewd diplomatic stroke.
Il IS recalled that he left unexpectedly
restoring the queen to the throne was at a
critical stage in Hawaii. The Hawaiian
government was on the point of
reaching decision, but had
not done so. At this juncture
Thurston left Washington suddenly, his
departure not being known until he was
we'll on the way to San Francisco. He
had full information as to the sentiment
IN the United States and when he reached
Hawaii his advice had much to do with
the final action of the government. 1t is
being suggested, therefore, that his depar-
ture at the present juncture, before
II Is known what action the Hawaiian
government has taken on Secretary
Gresham's demand, may result in his be-
ing at Honolulu when final action is
taken. No information has yet come
from Hawaii as to the course of the gov
ernment. The departure of Thurston
from the United States, without be-
ing recalled, will leave the rela-
tions between this government and
Hawaii in a peculiar condition. 1t can
n It be said that there is a rupture of
diplomatic relations, but they will GER
tainly be severely strained. 1t is custom
ary in ordinary cases where a minister
leaves, for him to present his letters of re-
call TO the president and take his leave.
But as Thurston has not been recalled he
cannot do this. Then when a minister
leaves the United States temporarily he
usually addresses a note to the state de-
partment and informs it that he has left
the legation in the hands of a charge.
Before Mr.. Thurston made the state
ment to the press to-day in regard to his
intended departure, he sent formal notifi-
cation of the fact to the state department,
naming Frank Hastings. secretary of the
legation, as charge d'afaires during his
absence.

CARSON, New, March 26.-It is quite
evident something is in the air here with
regard to the mint robbery and it is ex-
pected something will drop in day or
two. Tho present officials aud employees
are quietly smiling and their bondsmen
are indulging in handshaking among
themselves, although when approached
they assume n contented air and say
nothing. Inspector Mason says some bad
business has been going on, but can say
nothing yet. The general impression here
Is that the blame has been shifted from

He Is Taken From Quarantine In vio-
lation of Law.
NEW YORK, March 26. - Collector Kill
breth has received from surveyor j. c.
Mcclure, n report of the alleged violation
OF the quarantine law committed by Sec
cretary of the Treasury John G.. Carlisle,
guest of the officials of the custom depart
ment. The collector positively refused
TO make public the contents of the
document. Tho trouble has arisen on
account of tho secretary's anxiety to care
Tor his son. Tho young man arrived in
port last Saturday on the American line
steamship Paris after a months tour
abroad. The secretary went down to
quarantine in the revenue cutter and took
his son Off the steamer before the passen-
gers had been inspected by Health Officer
Doty. This constitutes n violation of the
state law, hence the trouble. Much to
the annoyance of Collector Kilbreth. the
matter became public and he asked Sur
veyor McGuirc for a report. A reporter
called on Collector Klbreth just after tho
document was handed him and he was
then engaged in perusing it. He admitted
that 1t was the much sought after report,
but refused to divulge the contents. Nei-
ther would he state what action in the
matter was intended.

Venezuela Settles Claims for Damages
OF Interest just Now

Venezuela Settles Claims for Damages
OF Interest just Now.
WASHINGTON, March 26.-After months
of dellberation tho Venezuelan commits
sion to-day concluded it's labors and an
nounced its decision, being a judgment in
favor of citizens of the United States for
S143.50O, about one-third of the amount of
the claims. OF the total award the Ven-
ezuelan Steam Transportating company
of New York received Sl41 500, American
gold with interest and Captain A. G.. Post
Jacob j. Maurinus and David j. Stur-
gis received each $500 with interest. The
claim of Cornelius j. Brinkerhoff, master
of the San Francisco, was tho only one
disallowed. The claims date back to
1871, when in the course of n revolution in
Venezuela three of the vessels of the
American corporation were seized by the
Venezuelans on either side in the con-
troversy and much damaged by use in
war. The ships were finally recovered,
one through the good Office of the COM
mander of British warship and the other
two by the commander of the United
States steamship Shawmut. The claim
also included items based on the
refusal of the victorious revolutionary
government 10 allow the company to ex-
ceed the franchise it had to navigate
Venezuelan waters and also items for the
imprisonment of the master of the seized
vessels. The principle involved in the
judgment rendered to-day is of great in
terest to the countries of Central and
Southern America, which are subject to
revolution, for it amounts 10 a declaration
that such countries are responsible for
the acts of insurgents against the rights
and property of foreigners, even If these
acts are beyond their control.
