UNPROTECTED GAME.

Suggestions for Sportsmen Who Want to
 Shoot Near Cities.
 A good many shooters are puzzled to know how they can get practice fo1 bird-shooting near the cities during close seasons without paying for prac. tice at the traps.
 There are several kinds of birds which fly in such a manner as to require skill in the killing, and are not protected by law at any time. Of course, small gauge gun is best for such practice, as it takes more skill to kill with it than with a big gun, and the more skill re- quired the better the practice.
 The kingfsher is a rapidly-darting flyer, rather shy and hard to kill. With a 2S-gauge gun a. shooters abilities would be well tested.
 The English sparrow, if put up badly scared, will give considerable sport, and the man who can get three with two shots out of a small flying flock may regard himself as a good shot. Of course, man wouldn't aim at the center of the flock, and pull. He aims at par ticular birds, and. if he misses the ones aimed at, he calls the shot miss. Red winged and crow blackbirds fly rap idly, when their nests are not near by. They are not protected, and may be found in partly wooded pastures.
 Some sportsmen may object to this as being useless slaughter, and it would be if the birds were thrown away. He would dress them all, except the king fishers. which taste fishy, and the pot pie they make would be followed by another before long. The English spar rows make a fine stew, as the flesh is al- ways hard and sweet.

snowballs Rolled by the Wind.

Passengers on the Flint River divi- Sion of the Flint & Pere Marquette rail- road who came to Flint, Mich, recently reported observing a strange phenom- enon in large, level fields not far from the city, says the Chicago Tribune. Hundreds of snowballs, some of th4n of colossal size, have been rolled to- gether, it is thought, by the action of the wind. The fields were covered with them, and nature accomplished in one night what it would take large force of boys several days to do.

ARRESTED FOR PERJURY.
All Chu, Chinese Actor. Claims to-
be Husband of Lucy.

All Chu, the Chinese actor, was ar
rested yesterday morning on the charge
of perjury in connection with the case
of Lucy" the half Chinese girl who
came here from San Francisco a short
time ago. All Chu swore that he was
the husband of Lucy" and that he
could furnish ample proof showing him
to be such. Now Mr. All Chu is up on
the charge of perjury for saying things
that other people said weren't so.
Lucy" swears that All Chu is not
her husband, but does not say any
thing further with the exception that
she is very lonely at the police station.
1t is the opinion in police circles
that Lucy" told true story when she
said that she has been mistreated by
her husband, Wong Hee, in San Fran
cisco and that in order to escape fur
ther cruelty she had decided to come to
Honolulu. 1t is also believed that in
order to accomplish her end she passed
herself off for the wife of Ah Chu, a
resident of Honolulu.
Several Chinese of the city are watch
ing the case of Lucy" very closely.
They are two factions, one belonging
to the same clan as her husband Wong
Hee, who are anxious to have her sent
back to San Francisco and another who
are trying to do all possible for the
comfort of the girl
Had it not been for the fact that a
writ of habeas corpus was got out to
detain the girl here it is more than
probable that she would have commit
ted suicide on the way up to San Fran
cisco on the Australia as she would
never return to her husband and be
sold and ill treated.
The case of All Chu for perjury has
been set for August goth, and it is more
than probable that the girl Lucy will
appear as an important witness.

made everything very lively.
H. F. Heuss and Tom Matthew were
in the race for first lieutenant, and re-
mained in it for quite a while. On the
first two ballots the vote was tie, and
on the third the same thing happened
after little irregularities had been
thrown out. The fourth ballot stood
81 to 26 in favor of Heuss, who was de-
clared elected first lieutenant.

Attractions at the Volcano-Old
Faithful Up to All Requirements.
During the recent warm spell in Ho-
nolulu, while the people here have been
fairly sgasping for breath, Colonel Peter
Lee of the Volcano House has had an
extra force of men employed cutting
cord wood so his guests could keep
warm as they exchanged experiences
around the log fire at night.
The Colonel reports exceptional wea-
ther at the crater, and Kilauea active
enough to suit the wishes of every one
who has visited the greatest volcano I'm
the world. Next in point of interest
to the crater is the Volcano House,
where every one is made welcome.
Genial Joe Marsden, who spent several
days there during his recent visit to
Hawaii, says that for the footsore and
weary, the brain worker and the ad-
vocate of gold or silver, this hotel
offers inducements unknown outside
the most celebrated sanitariums of the
Unitel States.

Messrs. Marsden and Koebele
Figure Out a Plan.
ISLANDS PRODUCTS TO BE SHOWN
Want to Use Old Legislative Hall.
Good Things for Tourists to In
spect-Coffee, Rice and Sugar for
observation-disclosures of Insects.

In nearly every county seat in the
Western States there is a place set
| apart as a place of exhibition of the
products of the country. In the state
capitals are rooms, sometimes build
| ings where a general exhibit is made
and every visitor there is shown what
the state and each particular county
can do.
This same plan has been carried out
by the state and county immigration
boards at the great exhibitions, and the
result has been beneficial as settlers
have been attracted by the exhibits and
have gone into localities which might
otherwise have been neglected terri
tory
Hawaii is but developing into place
where little of the surplus population
of the United States may find an outlet,
it offers opportunities in a half-hearted
way for men with small capital to come
here and take up land and embark in
the coffee industry, but up to the hour
of this paper going to press there has
not been government exhibit of the
products of the islands where tourists
could inspect them. If they want to
see rice growing they are told to take
tram car and ride out Palama way
until they found a field of water with
punches of grass growing. If their de-
sire was to see sugar cane in it's natural
state trip to Eva is necessary And
this, too with a Bureau of Agriculture
organized with the avowed purpose of
beneftting agriculturists particularly
and the country generally
But this backnumberism is going to
experience a change unless the red
taped wheels of government interfere.
Commissioner Marsden has hoofed it |
over Hawaii and has more than the
oretical knowledge of coffee in conse-
quence. Prof. Koebele, 1.-The bug man.
has been in every state and territory |
in the United States and knows the |
benefits of liberal advertising, and when
two such poles meet the ties of |
are sure to burst as
under and mark an epoch in the his
tory of Hawaii
Today Prof. Koebele leaves for Ha-
wall on bug hunting expedition; yes
terday he conferred with Commission
er Marsden and jointly they decided
that the one thing needful in Hawaii,
next to sewerage system, is a proper
government exhibit of the products of
the country, and, as an auxiliary, the
bugs that have done so much to make
the heart of the florist and the planter
sad
For two hundred dollars" said the
professor, "the room next to us could |
be put in condition for an exhibit that
would be of untold value to tourists
and benefit to the country; you could
have specimens of rice, canaigre, sugar
cane an coffee
And it would be good thing to have
an exhibit of some of the bugs" broke |
in the commissioner
Certainly, it would not be perfect
without something of the kind And |
that room would be most convenient to
tourists and those interested. The con-
ditions are good for having palms of
every variety growing and these, too, |
would add interest to the exhibition"
Commissioner Marsden agreed and |

Preaching with Pistols.

The war of the revolution, like our civil war, separated friends and divid ed households. One of George Wash ingtOn's intimate friends was the Rev. Jonathan Boucher, clergyman of the Church of England, who had come to the colonies while young man.
 When the troubles began which led to the war, the two friends took opposite sides, and their friendship was sus- pended. The young clergyman, believ- ing in the divine right of kings, was an uncOmpromising loyalist. He was as bold in the public utterance of his sen timents as was Patrick Henry in de- claring that George III. might learn from the king who lost his head.
 The young cleric preached openly against the doctrines of the revolution. Such was the popular excitement that he often ran the risk of personal vio- lence. His last sermon in America, preached at Annapolis, Md, ignored the Beatitude, Blessed are the peace makers" On the pulpit cushion were brace of pistols, and he ended the sermon by this shout of defiance:
 "As long as live, yea, while I have my being, will l proclaim, God save the kingr"
 The pistols recall another bold cler- gyman, Presbyterian of Kentucky, who was a prominent leader in the movement to abolish slavery from the State. Once when he had been an- nounced to preach, an angry crowd of opponents gathered about the meeting house, long before the hour for begin. ming the service of worship.
 When the clergyman appeared, 1t was seen that he carried a pistol in each hand. AS he walked toward the church door the crowd opened, and he, lowing, said:
 ''You see, gentlemen, that don't be- long to the Peace Society," He preach ed without being molested.
