HOTEL ROBBERY.
Quite Sum of Money Neatly Re-
moved From the Hawaiian.
Thief Got Through "a window on the
Alakea Street SIde-Must Have
Been Well Acquainted.

When the day bartender at the Ha-
waiian hotel opened up the saloon at
o'clock Saturday morning and looked
into the till, his hair stood on end and
he rubbed his eyes, but do what he
might to clear his vision, he found
missing, the usual $50 in change al
ways left over from the previous
night. This startled him enough, but
when he went over to the locker and
found the box containing the billiard
receipts likewise vanished, he was in a
dilemma indeed. Inquiry of the night
bartender brought forth the informa-
ton that $40 had been left in the till
on the previous evening and that the
box containing quite an amount of
money in billiard receipts had been
placed in it's customary place.
This information received, an inves-
tigation was instituted at once. The
second window from the old band
stand on the Alakea street side of the
hotel was found open but the blinds
on the outside had been carefully
closed. The upper sash of the window
had been pried open with an inStru-
ment of some kind and had not been
raised to it's previous position. On the
panes of glass were plainly visible fin
ger marks, not in purple ink but in
grease or some substance akin thereto.
Evidently the thief must have been
someone we'll acquainted with his sur
roundings for not a thing was found
moved from it's place. The work must
have been done in the dark for any
light would have betrayed the thief.
The locker containing the billiard re-
ceipts is in a place that none except
a person perfectly acquainted with the
bearings of the place could find.
The thief was careful to take away
none of the liquor that was his to COM
mand, but seemed bent upon nothing
but the money.
The night bartender who states that
he closed the saloon at 11:3O o'clock
sharp on Friday night says he does
not know how much money there was
in billiard receipts, but he knows that
the box was quite heavy. Probably
the thief got away with about $40 or
$50 in all
There is a similarity between the
robbery at the hotel and the one at the
Elite Ice Cream Parlors a short time
ago.

The Flax CrOn.

The west has for many years grown
most of tho flax produced in this coun-
try. Since wheat has been so low it has
taken the place of that crop, being
grown only for its seed, which general
ly sells for nearly twice as much bushel
as wheat. The flax will not produce as
many bushels as wheat, but it is quite
as easily grown. If there were some
way to make the fiber useful, the crop
would be fairly profitable. But it is an
exhaustive crop and can only be grown
successfully while the soil is rich. Amer
lean Cultivator in this connection tells
that i'll some parts of western New York
farmers have begun to grow fax, sell
ing the seed this fall for 90 cents a
bushel, while wheat only brings 60 cents.
If they count the fertility of their soil
which fax exhausts, this price leaves
no profit, But fax is worth more than
this tc feed, taking care to give very
little of it mixed with cut hay or straw.
If eastern farmers grow only what their
own stock could consume, they can prob
ably make the flax crop profitable.

large crop of employment seekers. One
of them last week accosted gentleman

For Weak Men With Nervous
Debility This is Certainly the
Chance of a Lifetime.

Weak men suffering from nervous de-
bilty. weakened powers and exhausted
vigor, can now take new hope. Here is
something which will powerfully inter
EST them. 1t is fact that until now
sufferers have been debarred from seek
ing cure by the great specialists in
these complaints owing to the cost OF
travel to the large city and the high fees
charged by these eminent physicians.
Here, therefore. is chance for weak
men in cur community which should not
be lost. Dir. Greene, of "a Temple Place
Boston, Mass, who has the largest prac-
tice in the world, and who is without
doubt the most successful specialist in
curing this class of diseases offers 10
give free consultation by mail to all
weakened, vigorless and nerve-eXhaust-
ed men. You have the privilege of con
sulting DR.. Greene by letter describing
your complaint and he will, after care
fully considering your condition, send
you a letter fully explaining all your
symptoms, telling you everything about
your complaint so plainly that you will
understand exactly what ails you. He
will also give you his advice, based upon
his vast experience and wonderful sue
cess in treating and curing such cases,
as to just what to do to get cured. All
this will cost you nothing and you can
thus have consultation with the best
known physician and acknowledged
most successful specialist in the world,
without leaving home and at no expense
whatever. The doctor is the discoverer
of that greatest of all medicines, DR..
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve
remedy, and he has discovered many
other valuable special remedies. Write
to him now, for this is the chance of IA
lifetime to get cured which you may
never have again.
