STEVENSON.
JOHN GILBERT ASSAULTED.

John Gilbert, who works for L. Gou let at .the station, met with rather rough treatment while walking quietly along the road near Botsford Peet's last Sunday. Five or six young roughs assaulted him and knocked him down causing his nose to bleed badly. For tunately he escaped with only black eye and badly soiled clothes, but this is very disgraceful business, for the Sab bath, especially. If the selling of cider could be stopped, as it should be, there would be less t'rowdyism" going on.

DELIGHTFUL CONCERT
or the ST. Andrews brotherhood Mt
z. ". e. mn E.nst NIcht.

The ST. Andrews Brotherhood Concert
given last night in Association hall was
pleasant, artistic and thoroughly en-
joyed by rather small audience. The
participants were all Norfolk artists
and the programme was good one.
The solos and duo in Lost Prescribed.
from Martha. by Messrs. Tupman and
jenkins were marked by good express
sion and rich bhnding by the voices.
Clear enunciation and tender Iathos
were given by Miss Taylor to her rem
dition Of Rubenstein's Since First I
Met Thee" and for encore she gave in a
delightful manner little gem of Scotch
ballad. NJ. Borjes played the "Raph-
s!odie Hongroise" in. splendid stlye. both
the tone and execution were fine He is
gifted violinist. Nothing pleased the
audience more than when Know that
Thou Art With Me-" rs sung by Miss
Taylor and Mr.. Jenkins.
The solos by Messrs. Tupman and
Jenkins and the piano Duets by Messrs
Koerner and Jenl;ins contributed to the
artistic success whish marked the even
ing's entertainment. The absence OF the
encore. as matter Of course, was no.
ticeable and refreshing.

WANTS AN INTERVIEW.
Request Made of the President by
eX-Queen LiliOukaInnf.

Ex-Queen Liliuokalani has sent an auto
graph letter to President Mckinley asking
the favor cf a personal interview at his
earliest convenience. So far known Mr..
Mckinley has not yet replied to the 'gra-
cious lady's polite note. An effort was
made today to find Capt. Julius Palmer,
the ex-queen's private secretary, but ne
was not aboutethe Cairo, where this little
remnant of the Hawaiian royalist party is
holding miniature court, and it is not
known whether the boon she seeks will be
granted.
Notwi hstandng the earnest statements to
the contrary made by Captain Palmer the
fact that Mrs. Dominis timed her visit 70
Washington as to be here at the close
of one administration and the commence
ment Of another has convinced many peo-
pie that her visit Is not without its pollti-
cal significance and that she has one or
two favors to ask of the United States gov
ernment. The ex-queen and her advisers
are quoted as putting a good deal of reli-
ance In Secretary Sherman S supposed OBJ
jections to annexation in general, and they
are not without hope that it will apply to
the annexation Of Hawaii in particular.
When Mrs. Dominis came to Washington
from Boston the impression went forth that
her stay here would not be as pro.racted
as it has already been, and the fact that
she has fingered on week after week with
cut any evident reason is looked upon by
many as rather significant What 1T signi-
ies, however, is another matter, and is a
problem that no cne so far has been able
to solve. She has not let drop any hint as
to the probable length CT her stay. Cap
tain Palmer says ii is very indefinite and
that he has never been taken into her con-
fldence on that point. This is doubtless
true. for. as he says, she is very strong
minded woman and does just about as she
chooses in such matters without asking the
advice of any one.
