ID. b. SHANKS MEETS WITH \ SIC.
RIOUS INJURY.
His Wrist Mutilated by an Exploding
Soda Bottle.-Close Call for John
Hassinger.

ID. Il. Shanks, one of the crack play
ers of the Beretania Stree Tennis
Club, who won honors yesterday, met
with an accident last night that will
prevent him from further comr etition
in the tournament, and may cripple
his right arm so that he viii never
play again. Mr.. Shanks had Just re-
turned home, and was opening a bot
tie of soda water, when it exploded.
The flying glass cut deeply into his
right wrist, severing one of the cords,
cutting through the muscles and
opening two arteries. DR.. Wood was
summoned and dressed the wound,
which was very painful. The injured
member was bound to a board, and
Mr.. Shanlis will have to carry it in a
sling for many weeks to come.
In Mr.. Shanks, the Beretania Street
Club has lost one of its ablest men in
the present tournament. He gained
honors easily in yesterdays contest,
and was playing in such good form
from that he would surely have been
in the finals. The surgeons say that
it will be at least six months before
Mr.. Shanks can again handle racq-
uet. The injury is of such serious
nature that there is possibility he
may never again be able to play.
Chief Clerk John Hassinger of the
Interior Department had narrow
escape from a broken head about
o'clock this afternoon. AS he was
passing under the arbor in front of
the Arlington lAotel, several of the
timbers fell, striking him across the
shoulders and rolling him in the dust.
Some bystanders helped him to his
feet and brushed the dust from his
clothing. He declared that he was
not bit the worse for wear, but was
pleased to know that sit had ceased
to rain timbers." Investigation show
ed that a careless driver had hitched
his horse to one of the supports of the
arbor, and that the animal, in trying
to break loose, had pulled the prop
out, letting the cross timbers fall. The
arbor is old and rotten, and the only
wonder is that Mr.. Hassinger was not
burie beneath the entire ruin and
seriously injured

ANUFFER IONAT GOODWIN
THEATER GOERS ANXIOUS TO
SEE THE COMEDIAN.
Meeting of the Hawaiian Amusement
Company.-Plan to Raise Fund of
$jOO0.-The Frawley Co. Interests.

There was representative meeting
of the shareholders of the Hawaiian
Amusement Company in the Chamber
of Commerce hall. +. c. Macfarlane
! was chosen chairman and Robert
Scott was made secretary of the
meeting
1t was explained to the sharehold-
ers by the chairman that they had
| been called together for the purpose
of discussing the advisability of max
ing an offer to Nat Goodwin to play
his company for four-weeks' en-
gagement i'm June. Goodwin's season
will close in San Francisco the end of
the present month, and his manager
has written to Honolulu, stating THAT
he would play if a guarantee of $4,000
be furnished by the people here.
There was some discussion on this
matter. Some were positive that Mr..
Goodwin would consent to come, pro-
viding a surety of $500 was given.
1t was then voted to choose an ex-
temporary charge of the amusement
company, and would endeavor to es-
tablish a reasonable guarantee fund.
f.. c. Macfarane, f. NJ. Swanzy, Har-
ry Won Holt, j. +. Brown and Robert
Scott were selected for this commit
tee.
Mr.. Scott explained that he had in
formed those taking shares in the
amusement company that they were
entitled to tickets representing the
amount of their shares.
This idea did not please Col j. II.
Fisher lie believed that there should
be guarantee fund which would be
on deposit in the bank. He suggested
that the shareholders dig up addi-
tional money for their tickets. and
that the reserve fund be left alone
until a deficiency occurs.
II. NJ. Won Holt was in favor o. this
idea, and stated that the shareholders
need not incorporate, but go in on a
partnership plan. 1t was then decided
to establish guarantee fund of $4,000
by selling shares at $40 each.
c. \. Brown wished the privilege of
first choice of seats be given the
shareholders. He believed it would
have tendency to induce many out
siders to purchase shares. Thomas
Wall endorsed this plan, as it would
be giving some benefit to those people
who, by risking their money in n
/ guarantee fund, make it possible for
good companies to play the Islands.
l.. NJ. Nettlesen, j. +. Brown, j. G.
RothwelI, Porter Boyd and many
others favored this idea.
Colonel Fisher was decidedly OPP
opinion that such discrimination
I against the general public would in
terfere materially in the box office re-
ceipts. The outsiders dollar was as
good as the shareholders dollar But
the meeting supported Mr. Brown.
The committee will begin the work
of raisinga $4,000 reserve fund at once.
If enough shares can be secured to
represent $500, this guarantee will be
sent to Mr.. Goodwin by the Belgic,
sailing tomorrow If this be accepta
Bile, and Mr.. Goodwin is available, the
company will expect the famous com
edan and his company on the Ala
media. due to arrive June 5.
Should Mr.. Goodwin be unable to
come, it was voted to authorize the
Executive Committee to select anot'-
er good company.

REMARKABLE AND VIGOROUS
Report NJ Agent Wisdom REGARDING the
Five Tribes Question IL Both.

Report IT Agent Wisdom REGARDING the
Five Tribes Question II Both.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 80. "A remark.
able and vigorous report has been made
to the interior department by Agent D.
NJ. Wisdom, in charge of the Union
Indian agency, in Oklahoma, where the
five civilized tribes are located. In this
Mr.. Wisdom says:
1.-THE intruders must 60. The intru-
ders have made the Indians doubt the
good faith of the government and made
important issues of allotment, and the
breaking up of tribal autonomy i'll the
nation to which the individual Indian
belongs. A sound public policy demands
the eviction of all declared intruders,
and any measure of e~xpediency on the
part of the department that %temporizes
with the intruder or postpones his re.
moval on mere t~echnicalities is falla.
cious and misleading. Let all the
treaties be enforced and all the safe
guards secured to the Indians be upheld
in letter and in spirit, and then the
Indians will make liberal concessions
and accept without ~murmuring that
change in condition which confronts
them"
The report deals with a number of
important Indian developments. 1t
says the clamor for a change in tribal
autonomy has produced Indian unrest
and disquietude, resulting in q deter.
mined purpose on the part of many of
the full bloods, who will act in their in
dividual capacity, to emigrate to either
Mexico or South America and there
purchase new homes for themselves and
families. This movement, the report
says, may grow to the proportion of a
colony, and it is understood that liberal
grants Of land can be secured from the
countries mentioned.
"Tnis movement may settle the In.
dian problem to a degree, and thus hap.
PLY relieve the Dawes commission, con.
gress and others who have combatted
with the question for years.
9Th movement may be chimerical or
visionary, but l am disposed to present
it seriously"
Discussing the judicial complications
in the territory the report stamps the
change made in putting deputy United
States marshals back on a fee basis as a
great mistake.
The report takes a roseate view of the
possibilities of the success of the Dawes
commission negotiations.
