JUrlPED OUT THE WINDOW.
A Highway Robbers Desperate At
tempt to Escape.

Alonzo Cosby, sheriff of Canadian
county, Oklahoma, passed through on
Wednesdays Rock Island, on his
way to Lansing, with the following
prisoners in charge: Jess Slower, sent
up for ten years for highway robbery,
Thomas Wildly, convicted of assault
with murderous weapon, and Charles
Baker, sent up for rape.
While the train was moving at the
rate of about thirty-fve miles an
hour, Jess Slower got up and went in
the closet Of the car. The sheriff
went with him and held the door OF
the apartment open, but as Slower
was handcuffed he did not expect any
trouble. As soon as his man got 10
the closet, however, he jumped right
through the window which was closed
at the time. The train was imme-
dlately stopped, and there lay slower
at the foot Of the embankment, al
most killed, He was taken on board.
and the train proceeded. 1t is not
known how seriously he is injured. or
whether he will recover or not, but as
he is a tough customer be will prob
ably pull through. When seen by a
VOICE reporter he was either sleeping
or inSensibIe, and looked petty badly
used up.
Sheriff Cosby is a former resident of
Sumner county. He lived at Argonia
and was married here in 1888, W hen
but l9 years of age, to Miss Emma
Riley of the same place. Cosby is a
young man, but is full of grit and de-
termination, and is a terror to Okla
hOma outlaws.

Juvenile Opere tia.

The operetta, "Jack and the Bean
Stalk" given by the kindergarten
school Of Miss Stella Newton, ably
assisted by Miss Msude Barrett and
other local talent, was quite well at
tended. AS a whole the entertain
ment was a success. The chorus Of
children was very fine and showed
careful training. Some Of the solos
by the little people were also excel
lent.
Lloyd Spar as "Jsck" was a great
success and his singing was remark
ably fine. Little Miss Katie Elliott
as queen of the fairies was also very
very good. Mabelle Piatt, as Jacks
mother, sang excellently. Many more
are worthy of especial mention. Gene
Barrett as the giant made a great
hit and acted his part to perfection.
Gene would make a first rate giant as
he is, but when fattened up by dining
off little boys and other delicscies to
which giants are supposed to be par
tial, and having donned pair of huge
black mustachios, he certainly looked
very fierce. The piano playing by
Miss Barrett also deserves especial
mention.
The financial part Of the affair was
very gratifying to the young ladies.

OREGON
STARTS THE BALL ROLLING
Populist Gains In Every County, Not.
withstanding This Was to Be
Great Republican Year.

There is evidence abroad that the
people are awaking to the situation ia
American politics, 1t has been her
aided everywhere that this was to be
a great Republican year, but the arst
gun of the campaign does net bear cat
the idea.
Oregon voted Monday. Telegrams
from there read as follows:
Portland, Ore, June 1.-Returns
from the elections held in Oregon TO-
day are coming in slowly. From pres
ent appearances the legislature will be
Republican by a large majority. The
Republicans have twelve hOld-over
senators in the legislature, the POpu-
lists two and the Democrats one. The
Republicans therefore will have to
elect only four senators out of the if
teen in order to have majority in the
senate. The Republican State GEN.
tral committee claims twelve out of
the fifteen, leaving only six senator's
to the POpulistS and Democrats out
Of total of thirty.
In the last house the Democrats
were not represented and the Populists
had only four members out Of sixty.
Portland, Ore, June 2.-Returns
from the interior today show large
PopuliSt gains in nearly every county
in the state. The Republicans haze
elected Bean supreme judge by from
5000 to 10000. The two congressman
are in doubt, the contest being be-
tween the Republican and POpulist
nominees in both districts. The First
district gives Tongue (Rep.) 1864:
Vanderburg Pop. 7,645; Myers Dem. J
1924. The vote in the Second district
gives Ellis Rep 1929; Quinn (Pop.)
l,2O; NOrthrup llnd.) S57; Bennett
Dem. 1905.
The legislature will be close, but at
the present time the indications favor
the Republicans. The Democrats and
POpulists fused in several counties,
and it is possible that the Dem Ocrats
and Populists together will have a
majority in the house. The senate is
Republican by at least five majority

some special providence plac-
ed the struggled goods just
right for the professional snug
gler to do with them as he wanted.
There is an alternative to either or
both of these obvious presump-
lions which cannot now be men
toned, yet one which the Govern
ment out of respect for itself can
not ignore. The superiors of the
appraiser should be held to strict
account, moreover, for allowing
such gross looseness to prevail in
the bureau as the visitation of the
police was required to disclose.

TWO EQUIrY DECISIONS.
Judge Carter Refuses n Bill-Judge
Perry Condemns a Dam.


Judge Carter has rendered a
decision in the equity suit Of
Joseph G. Henrique against
James r. Paris, minor, Mary G..
Paris, j. ID. Paris, Jr., admins
traitor of the estate of j. ID. Paris,
ST., deceased. 1t is in favor of
the defendants. The suit was for
specific performance of an option
contained in lease from J. ID.
Paris, ST., to the plaintiff. Judge
Carter concludes:
"The maxim that he who seeks
equity must do equity applies. A
part of the consideration, and an
important part, was the clearing
of this land and keeping it clear.
Notwithstanding the lessor urged
the plaintiff to comply with the
condition he neglected so to do,
and the general equitable consid-
erations which are always peril
nent in granting or refusing spe-
cihc performance are against the
plaintiffs compelling a compliance
with the agreement to sell, not
having himself fulfilled the con-
ditions on his part to be kept and
performed. | am of the opinion
the bill should be dismissed and
will sign, upon presentation, a
decree to that effect" Robertson
for plaintiff; Kinney for defend
ants.
Judge Perry has rendered a de-
cision in the equity suit for an
injunction of Tong Tai Wal Com
pany against Lau Pho and others.
He concludes: IL think that the
dam should be removed forthwith
and that an injunction ought to
issue as prayed for. 1t is SO ord
cred" The dam thus doomed is
at Waikele in Eva. Hartwell,
Thurston & Stanley for COM
plainants: Magoon and Edings
for defendants.
This morning the Supreme
Court composed for the occasion
of Chief Justice Judd, Associate
Justice Frear and Attorney at
Law Cecil Brown-began hearing
argument on defendants motion
for re hearing of the McGrew life
insurance case.

THE CUSTOMS SCANDAL.

In its report of the exposure of a
smuggling ring with headquarters
in the Custom House, the Adver-
tiser gives the following remark
able information:
Hoshina has had ample oppor-
tunity to feather his nest since he
has been in the appraisers office.
Frequently cases have been ordered
to that department, and when Mr.
Fishel has been otherwise engaged
the examinations of the contents
have fallen on Hoshina. The sup
position is that he opened Just
such cases as he knew contained
opium and then pu5 the APP
praiser's stamp on the outside and
turned them over to the carter for
delivery at the rendezvous.
AIr. Fishel is appraiser in the
Custom House, that Office having
been created by the Provisional
Government for the protection of
the revenue. Prior to the
creation and filling of the
Office, the appraising OF i'm
ports was done by the Collector
General or his Deputy, experts in
special lines of merchandise
sometimes being called in. 1t was
promised by the Minister OF
Finance, when asking the Coun.
ellis to create the new Office, thai
revenue would be saved more thar
enough to pay for it. This pro
mise has in all probability beer
realized. Yet here is nest O
corruption and smuggling, both o
Legitimate and illegitimate goods
discovered right under the nose O
the new official. 1t should hav,
been expected that an officer hav

should be able to prevent system
attic fraud at least, when the off
cials who formerly attended {,
that particular duty, although the.
had a variety of other duties t,
perform, never had anything quit
so scandalous to account for. Re
ferring to the information quoted
from the Advertiser, the question
naturally occurs as to how it hap
pened that Hoshina always haC
the good fortune, in his ne
farious doings, to have thos
cases to open and mark whicl

Scene Of investigation Removed 10
Kauai.

There was trouble at the police
station this morning when Deputy.
Marshal Hitchcock overhauled
everybody concerned in yester-
days arrests and search at the
Custom House and endeavored to
find out how the BULLETIN got its
information yesterday afternoon.
Strict orders were given that no
one connected with the case should
even open his mouth to a reporter
and especially the BULLETIN man,
and dire penalties were threatened
if any more information was given
out. Consequently nobody had
any use for reporters around
headquarters today. But that
makes no difference, as it is we'll
known that no secrets can be kept
in Honolulu.
After spending all yesterday
afternoon in investigating the case,
some of the principal witnesses
accompanied by Chester Doyle as
interpreter left for Kauai on the
Mikahala, but their names do
not appear on the passenger list.
Marshal Brown is already on
that islandengaged in investigating
the business at that end of the
line, and when he receives the
report of yesterdays proceedings
something may drop on the Gar
den Isle.
1t is nearly six weeks ago since
the police commenced to work On
these cases and they have never let
up. Investigations have taken
place on Maui and are now going
on on Kauai with the object of
finding out who was purchasing
the opium obtained 10y Hoshina
and distributed by his confeder
ates, and there is no doubt
that the police have sufficient in
formation to implicate several
parties both here and on Kauai.
The statement is also made that
Hoshina, Itawi and Masui are not
the principals, although they will
be made to suffer unless they give
the whole business away. 1t is
the principals in the deal that the
police are now after, both here
and on Kauai, and other arrests
may take place at any time.
On the other hand the claim is
made that Hoshina is the victim
Of a conspiracy put up to get him
out Of the Custom House, his
presence there having intprfered
with the operations of japanese
smugglers. Under the instruc-
tons of counsel, Messrs. Robert
son and Davis, he is keeping a
close mouth until his trial which
is set for Friday.
The charge against Hoshina has
been raised to that of selling
opium, while Iwata is charged
only with having the drug in pos
session.

"a watch balance gives five
