tenor Of 1t was more than cheerful. With
out exception the letters noted a healthy
feeling in the party and confidence in the

forced to the front again they regard it as

BLACKSMITH WOULDN'T BITE.
Confidence Men Threw Bait in Vain to
Mr.. Veach.

Mr.. Veach. Greenwood blacksmith, came
to town yesterday and. having a few hours
to spare after the transaction of his bust
ness, wandered about the city seeing the
sights. In the course of his presentations
he met man who claimed to be similarly
situated and who wanted company. The
stranger suggested that they look at the
the Statehouse the stranger found a little
brass lock and the two were examining 1t
when a second stranger approached and
opened an argument with the first stranger
about the lock. The result was a bet that
the lock could not be opened. An attempt
was made to get Mr.. Veach to wager some
money on the lock, but he would not bite
Just after the money had changed hands
another man appeared and showing a big
badge, placed the three men under arrest
for gambling. The four walked east on
New York street to the University Square,
and there the first two strangers paid the
third one S. each to let them go. Veach
would not buy his freedom and agreed to
go anywhere. But the alleged officer was
anxious to get rid of him now.
Are you acquainted in the city" he
asked Veach.
He was Informed that Mr.. veach was
acquainted at the Van Camp Hardware
Companys store and he told Mr. Veach 10
go there and get some one to vouch for him
and secure his release. Mr. Veach agreed
10 the arrangement and started away He
instead OF going watched the alleged officer
He saw him join the other two and fol-
lowed them. He thought he saw them en-
ter house on North Pennsylvania street.

was there for the purpose of getting a
certificate from each state officer to the
effect that he was a minister of the gospel

would reach half the length of a block. He
was walking from Texas to Timoor or Tim

been through some one else, and if the doc

that than anything else. l consider II nee
esssary to make but two statements: First.
I was referred TO Professor Hurty by the
Health Board officials. in the first case. as

upon his instructions in that case. which
was satisfactory to all, and duplicated them
in the second without further troubling

to Englishs Opera House yesterday to hear
Madame Yale's lecture. The rush was some
thing terrific and the captain found himself
carried by the crowd of women into the
auditorium Of the theater. When he had re-
covered himself he discovered a lady's
watch and chain clinging about one of the
brass buttons of his coat. An announcement
from the stage found the owner of the
watch, and it was returned Another lady
reported the loss of watch chain. AS

part of Hawaii, at the time the
treaty was made. If any one had
then seriously suggested that
there might soon be an influx of
Japanese to Hawaii, he would
have been deemed an idiot, and
laughed at by both parties to the
treaty. Hence no provision was
made in the treaty, which has out
lived the conditions existing at
the time it was made. This is a
point, which should not be over
looked at this time.
