\ Pyramid OF Soldiers Enables Men to Sur
mount u 3IFoot Wall.

From the Chicago Daily Tribune |
Corporal Leary, the limberost
man at Fort Sheridan, took tho
chance of breaking his neck and
tumhling the storming pyramids Of
forty one soldiers in bruised heap
Saturday as he sprang upward from
tho shoulders Of Private Miller,
caught with three fingers of his loft
hand tho top of the high wooden
wall behind which lurkcd the enemy,
hung for one pcrilous instant, and
then gallantly | ullcd himself to tho
top, scizod his rifle, and sprang into.
the midst of the foo on the othor side
of tho improvisod parapot in the Col.
iscum gallery.
The human pyramid swayed, but
held its sturdy place while gallant
infantrymon swept up the stalwart
shoulders and over the thirty one
foot wall to Corporal Leary's sup
port, while a platoon Of twenty five
mon kept the enemy away in front Of
the wall.
1t was at this point that the regu,
lar army officers, who were watching
the fray from the Coliseum gallery,
led the applause, for Corporal Leary
and his comrades had broken the
worlds cscalading record by three
feet. AS a partial reward for his
daring feat Corporal Leary will be
recommended by Lieut.. Percival G.
Lowe, in command Of tho camp, for
promotion.
When Corporal Lcary climbed to
the apex Of tho pyramid and stood
on the shoulders Of tho mon in the
top row, tho tips af his fingers lacked
five inches of roaching tho top of
tho wall. The highest wall that was
over cscalndcd before was twenty
eight feet, and the mon who climbed
over that in tho military carnival at
New York broke tho worlds record
then. Tho wall at tho Coliseum was
thirty one feet high, and it took just
four minutes to scale it.
Eighteen of the heaviest and
strongest men in the regiment form
rd the base Of the pyramid, ton
mounted ON their shoulders and
leaned against tho wall, six stood on
tho shoulders Of the ton, four on the
shoulders Of tho six, and three on
tho shoulders of tho four. Corporal
Lcary scrambled up this cscaloding
pyramid Of blue, and stood on tho
shoulders Of tho top three, braced
against tho wall
Whom he stretched out his arm,
and found his fingers would not
reach the edge of tho wall, he crouch
cd, and then, rs tho human mountain
swayoa dizzly beneath his feet, with
tho mighty and yet delicate effort of
tho trained athletic he sprang boldly
five inches upward ut the edge of
the barrier. Ho tried to grasp the
top of the parapot with both hands,
but only threo fingers of his left
hand won't high enough. The pyra-
mid under him was still swaying.
He held to the hazardous edge by
tho three fingers for an instant, and
then, with a heave and twist, pull
ing his whole body up, caught the
wall with the other hand. An in
stant latter ho was on the enomy's
siNo Of the bnrricade.

AN Unwilling PASSENGER on
THE WARRIMOO.
Charles Taylor Plans to Go to TOGO
ma, but Finds Himself Unexpected
ly in Hawaii.

Charles Taylor who arrived from
Victoria on the Warrimoo this morn
ing, fnds himself in very unique and
unpleasant predicameift of being just
25O0 miles distant from the place he
had selected as his destination when
he boarded the steamer at Victoria,
eight days ago. What is much worse,
his friends in Tocoma. who were eX-
pecting to meet him on the day he
sailed. have no doubt been hunting
high and low for him, and he can al
most see the glaring headlines in the
papers announcing his mysterious dis
appearance, and probable death at the
hands of thieves.
It was all through a mistake on the
part of Mr.. Taylor. BY some strange
misunderstanding he boarded the
Warrimoo instead of the Tacoma stea-
mer. and she was well on her way to
sea before he discovered his mistake.
Captain Hay was unwilling to turn
back to land Mr.. Taylor, so that he
was forced to continue his enforced
Journey as a guest of the company,
and finds himself today in part of
the world he had never expected TO
visit. He will be placed in charge of
the British Vice Consul here, and on
October 1st be returned to Victoria
on the r. MS. Miowea.
Mr.. Taylor is a draper by trade,
hailing originally from London, but
of recent years a resident of Chicago.
He was on his way to visit friends in
Tacoma when he got astray. just
how it happened Mr.. Taylor is still
unable to tell. The Warrimoo was ly-
ing at the dock alongside of the Taco
ma steamer. Mr.. Taylor was late, and
rushed aboard the Warrimoo just be-
fore the gang plank was hauled in. 1t
was getting quite dark, and the trav-
eler did not notice that the vessel he
was aboard was heading out to sea.
Half an hour later he went down to
dinner, and then, for the first time he
discovered his mistake. Of course he
wanted to go back. but Captain Hay
would not hear of it. Mr.. Taylor was
told that he must go on. As his ticket
and papers proved beyond doubt that
his mistake was an honest one. and
! his anxiety to return to Victoria evi-
dent, Captain Hay told the traveller
that he must continue his journey at
the expense of the company, return
ing to Victoria by the next steamer.
Mr.. Taylor has made the best of 1t.
He found himself in pleasant compa-
ny, and is enjoying his trip very much
except that he is worried on account of
his friends. who will undoubtedly be-
lieve that he has met with foul play.

KILAUEA REALLY ACTIVE.
Steamer Mauna Loa Brings Ample
Confirmation.

A. Stanley, tourist who returned
on the Mauna Loa today from a trip
to the Volcano, confirms the report
brought down by the Claudine last
week, that old Kilauea is again in a
state of great activity. He says that
since the outburst witnessed by the
Congressman and Attorney General
Smith, week or so ago, the lake
has been rising gradually, and that
there has been an almost constant
display of fire, with fountains playing
The lake is now about 500 feet below
the level of the large basin. At night
it presents grand appearance, Tor
the surface is as boiling and restless
as in years gone by.
The steamship companies are very
slow to confirm the news of the new
activity. So many false reports have
been sent out from time to time the
people are beginning to look upon all
reports concerning the activity of the
volcano as ''stories for summer board
ers only" President Wight of the
Wilder Steamship Company, says that
if the Volcano is again active, he does
not doubt that it will continue so
and increase until it presents the
same grand spectacle that it did three
years ago, when hundreds of people
came from all parts of the world tc
see it,

PROFESSOR CHARLES COPELAND
Is WANTED.
Came to Honolulu Leaving His Fami-
ly Back in Ohio-Is Now Principal
of Kapaa School.

Professor Charles +. Copeland, who
was recently placed in charge of the
Kapaa school on Kauai by Inspector
General Townsend, pending an inves-
tigation in the Austin matter, is in
volved in a mystery which he will be
asked to clear up before he is given
permanent employment under the Ed
ucational department.
BY a recent mail there came to the
President of the Board of Edsication
a postal which contained picture
and minute description of Professor
Copeland. Any information concern
ing his whereabouts was asked to be
telegraphed Immediately to the miss
ing mans wife, Mrs. G. f. Copeland,
of Delaware, Ohio, or the chief of po-
lice at Columbus, Ohio. Any one tax
ing this trouble will be literally paid.
The circular gives very complete
description of the professor from birth
marks to monogram on his watch
charm. He left his home in Delaware,
Ohio, on June 10, taking a bicycle and
$500 in money. 1t also stated that Mr..
Copeland was a Methodist, and never
swore. drank or used tobacco. He was
Mason and has travelled over the
United States and Europe. He taught
three schools in Singapore, India;
was principal of the Delaware, Ohio,
schools for three years, and was a
graduate of the O. w. T., with an A
NJ degree.
Further information is given con-
cerning the man, that he likes to live
near the water, and would surely
seek a quiet boarding house, rather
than noisy hotels.
Copeland landed in Honolulu in Ju-
ly last. He Immediately sought EN-
ployment of the Educational Board
presenting testimonials and diplomas
From what little can be learned con-
cerning him, it appears that he lett

COFFEE LANDS.

Editor Star:-ln your issue of Sep
tember 22 you refer to complaint
from Olaa about the appraisement of
Government lots, of from 10 to 60 ac-
res, at $50 per acre. as excessive. The
complaint is well founded, with the
present price of labor, no land on the
Islands for coffee culture is worth ov-
er $100 Zone dollar) per acre.
The writer of this letter met in Jap-
uary last, at Jamaica West Indies)
four coffee planters, on their way
to England, and with labor at "a cents
gold per day, they were unable to
make any money out of their planta-
tions.
The four most necessary things for
successful coffee raising are cheap Ia
Dor, cheap land, light taxes and cheap
transportation, not one of which cou-
ditions exists on these Islands.
That coffee grows and bears on the
Islands is right enough. To be grown
at a profit on the investment is an
other matter.
