the Annexation proposition untenable.
This is the first time that any public
man here has with so much care and
study, with such directness and force,
presented the american Standpoint"
Judge Hartwell gives it on the plane
of craftsmanship.
1t is well to note now such portions
of this brief as may be picked out by
critics. One name is mentioned, with
what effect can only be conjectured at
this time. There will be those who
will object to the description of "the
only persons who would naturally pre-
fer to remain alone" In the American
diagnosis there will be hit on for dis
sent the statement that if Hawaii
were a part of the American Union it
could easily and surely Withstand the
| influx of Orientalism. This point will
be argued at length.
! These briefs-candid, impartial, hon

Italy has been humbled to the dust.
She went into the field with drums
beating and colors flying to bag few
blacks. Columns were annihilated and
armies routed by the barbarians. In
stead of securing victory and spoils,
the Italians left alive were made pris-
Oners. Now a further indignity has
been visited upon proud Rome. She
has been forced to accept the lesser
considerations in treaty with the
Abyssinians. These latter had been
vastely moderated. Instead of flock
ing to battle with spears and shields,
they marched upon the field with i'm
proved rifles and modern machine
guns and Unanswered with glorious
effect. They have made a record that
is not unlike the story of the Beers,
and are even accredited with having
secured the friendly offices of both
France and Russia.

HEALTH ADVICES
News that Smallpox and Cholera Are
Abating in the Orient.

President w. o. Smith of the Board
of Health received the happy advices
today per the steamer China, that the
cholera and smallpox plaques which
have been prevalent in China and
Japan are abating. DR.. Jordan, med
ical inspector for Hawaii at Hong
kong, China, writes that the state of
health there is very much improved.
A ship from Singapore was held in
quarantine and no communication al
lowed between the ship and shore on
account of an outbreak of cholera on
board the ship.
DIR. Eldridge, chief medical inspect
or for Hawaii in Japan, states in his
letter that the smallpox in Kobe and
cholera in Toxic and Yokohama was
diminishing.

ANNEXATION MEETING.

The special committee appointed by
the Annexation Club to draft a con-
stitution for the club and set a date
for general meeting has completed
the work assigned to it. 1t has called
a general meeting of the Club for to-
morrow evening at 1880 in the Drill

constitution. The meeting will be an
open one and a cordial invitation i,
extended to all parties who are in
sympathy with the annexation move

Judge Hartweli's double brief on
Annexation is one of the ablest pa
pers so far produced in Hawaii. There
is earnestness in every sentence. Each
proposition is clearly and concisely
stated. All the ground seems to be
covered. This document The Star
firmly believes, will do very great SER
vice for the cause. On the main ques-
ton it is really the paper premier.
There is no passion in it. 1t is
broad. 1t is not unkindly. There is
no equivocation in it. 1t overlools
very few important considerations.
AS a whole it is well-nigh beyond crit
icism. 1t will be received most COR
daily by the AnneXationists and will
command the thoughtful attention of
those who have hesitated, those open

The mer.ts of a wheel are

cists of that colony who were in Ha-
wall last year are in no embarrass-

and captious in his report upon this
country when he returned home, but
there is no i'll feeling on that account.

In supervising too closely the in

unlikely to pick up some trouble for
herself. 1t is recorded that Korea has
been taken to task sharply for grant
ing railway concession to an Ameri-

to interest and hold for some time the
attention of the authorities at Wash
ington.

1t is reasonably safe to assume that
there is mistake somewhere in put
ting forth the statement that during
the war with Japan the Island of For
mosa was offered to England by China.
The chief contradiction of this tale
lies in the fact that the British flag
was not raised over Formosa several
months ago.

Der of promenaders in Golden Gate Park
yesterday, but during the entire day moth
ing of an extraordinary nature occurred.
In fact, it was a very quiet Sunday.
The one great attraction was the music,
which was highly appreciated by the
large number of people who listened to it.
The number that attracted the greatest
applause was "Il Pastore Svizzero," solo
for piccolo rendered by A. Logar.
There is evidence of work done during
the week on the bicycle track from the
line of the road that leads to the museum
entrance. The track has been graded and
is now ready for the top dressing. 1t is
expected that in few weeks it will be
ready for wheelmen, who then will no
longer be in the way of vehicles.
There were many visitors to the mu-
scum. Possibly next Sunday the case of
Presidential bronze medals will be dis
played. In the ornithological department
mum ber of specimens of beautiful birds
have been recently added.
During the day the park police were
summoned by telephone from the Presidio
to look after ga band of cattle that is
roaming in the public park at Mountain
Lake." Captain Thomson aud several of

that the "band of cattle" was noIhing
more than two stray horses. They were
taken in charge and were sent to the pub

There was not as much enjoyment at
the ocean beach as usual on account of the
heavy fog. Still there was a big crowd
there, and good portion visited the
baths, where the attractions were concert
music, swimming and high diving.

ner and F. E. Harmon of the Chronicle.
Out on the bay opposite Sausalito a
grand stand will be stationed that will seat
several hundred people. The stand will
be erected on float and placed in such a
position that the marine pageant will pass
between it and the Illuminated burg.
1t is the intention to make grand dis
play of electricity from the current gener-
ated by Sausalito's own plant. This will
be augmented by the plant of the railroad
company. An electrical firm of San Fran
cisco has agreed to furnish all electrical
appliances free of charge.

The onfagration on this promontory
can be seen by all the cities that border on
the bay-San Francisco, Oakland, Berke-
lev and Alameda Besides the red fire,
bales of hay saturated with chemicals will
give lights of all the colors of the rain
bow.
A movement is being made to allow ex-
cursion steamers from all over the bay
cities to land, and excursion trains will be
run from Mill Valley. Cazadero and San
Rafael. There will also be run half-hour
boats from a until II P. N. from all the
ferry points.
The queen of the carnival will be
chosen by vote. Polling places have been
opened at the principal stores of the
town. The cost of vote is 10 cents.
When elected the queen will have the
authority to appoint her maids.
Some of the hill people who at first
were rather dilatory in favoring the
scheme are now awakening to the fact of
its Importance and are subscribing liber-
ally. Arrangements have been made
with the Encinal Yacht Club to bring
procession of yachts from Alameda.
Tiburon has volunteered to join with the
carnival and will furnish all the aid in its
power.
The committee on yachts will consist of
Commodore Cutie as chairman and the
commodores of the San Francisco, En-
cinal, Corinthian, Pacific and California
yacht clubs.

ROBBED IN DAYLIGHT
Lachman & jacob Lose $1,000
by a Most Dexterous Thief.

A clever robbery took place in the office
of Lachman & jacob, on Second and Bry-
ant streets, on Saturday forenoon at II
O'clock
At this hour Superintendent Edmund
G. Ciprico returned from the bank. bring
ing wit b him $1,000, which was contained
in two sacks, one having gold and the
other silver, with which it was his inten-
tion to pay the help at noon. This amount
he placed in the drawer of a desk in the
office few feet back from the front desk,
when his attention had been called by some
customers.
he had been called, which took about
twenty-five minutes, he unlocked the
drawer for the purpose of dividing the
m oney according to the amount coming
to each man.
He found the drawer empty, and the
sacks nowhere in sight. He searched, and
In his search he pulled the desk in which
ne had placed the money out from the
place where it stood against two large
wine casks. On examining the back of the
desk, he found where one of the panels
had been cut a bove ard below the line of
where the drawer was situated, and on the
lower cut was temporary hinge, screwed
on to the cut portion, which kept it in
place and prevented the screwed portion
from falling out.
This panel had been pushed back in
place as though it had not been intertered
with. Yet the money was gone and the
solution of the theft dawned upon the
bewildered superintendent. He at once
communicated his loss and discovery to
Lachman and jacob and they in turn
telephoned the news to Captain SpilIane.
Suspicion fell upon young man named
Eddie Pivell, who had been recently dis
charged by tine firm. He was arrested
and locked up in the Central Station
awaiting further developments.
He pleaded entire ignorance of the theft
and claims that he can prove that he was
not near the nlace that day.
