Enoch Jones. one of the thrifty ora

Enoch Jones, one of the thrifty gran
gers of Horsehead valley, was i'll town
on business Monday. He says range
stock is wintering fairly we'll, although
feed is unusually scarce and cattle
have drifted badly at times. Mr.. Jones
served his country in the capacity of

1t was a severe ordeal for man of his
age and he was nearly disabled from
its effe ts for several days.

HAWAIIANS WILL SOON BE FOR
ANNEXATION.
Holding Back for Sentimental Reasons
and With the Idea That the Monar-
chy May be Restored.

Rev. j. Kauhane of Kau, Senator
from the Island of Hawaii, will remain
in Honolulu visiting friends until the
departure of the w. &. Hall next
week.
The Senator feels satified that a
majority of the Hawaiians throughout
the district of Kau will very shortly
be won over to the cause of anneXa.
ton. Many have already grasped the
meaning of annexation and are now
strongly advocating it among their
countrymen.
There are a great many of my peo-
pie who are opposing the union OF
Hawaii and the United States for sen.
timental reasons alone," remarked the
Senator this morning. when they
realize that there is no hope for the
restoration of the Monarchy and that
with annexation will come peace and
prosperity to them. they will all be
ardent supporters of the cause"
Senator Kauhane does not take any
stock in the statement that the Ha-
waians would be giving their country
away to support annexation. He says
to become a citizen of a great Re-
public like the United States is some
thing that is far better than nothing.
Leaders of the better classes of Ha-
waiians are thinking seriously over
the merits of annexation and they will
not be slow in arriving at a conclusion
when they are satisfied that there are
no hopes for n monarchy.
The Senator complains of the dry.
ness of the Kau country.

PHILADELPHIA Is GOING ON \
PRACTICE CRUISE.
The Targets win Probably be Anchor
ed Off Lahaina-She is Not Going
Home.

The United States cruiser Philadel-
phia will go to sea about the middle
of next week for weeks target and
torpedo practice. The general order
has not yet been issued, but it is un-
derstood that such are the plans of
Captain Dyer at the present time, and
if nothing interferes the big cruiser
will weigh anchor about Wednesday
on Thursday next.
The Philadelphia has been fast to
the bottom i'm Naval Row for nearly
six months, and although the men
have been kept busy at the various
drills, both aboard ship and ashore,
they have necessarily become rusty
in gun practice and maneuvering at
sea. A short voyage and good shaking
up in the channels will be more of
holiday than anything else for the
men, and the practice they get at the
guns and with the torpedos will add
to their efficiency.
The probabilities are that the Phi
ladelphia will go to Lahaina for target
practice. She will find "A good anchor.

the white cruiser may spend day or
so at Hilo. She will probably be alb
sent on the cruise for week or ten
days.
The report that the Philadelphia
will sail for home is denied from Off
cial sources. There is small chance
that she will leave Honolulu until the
Baltimore is in shape to relieve her.
An officer said this morning that the
latest gossip that can be relied on
says that the big cruiser will sail for
San Francisco about the third week
in October.
Although the sailing date for the
practice cruise has not yet been fixed,
it is understood that the Philadelphia
will go about Wednesday Or Thursday

A BIG CANAL,
How Russia will Get Her Warships
From the Black Sea to the Baltic.

Germany has built her military Gu
nal at kiel and now Russia in addi-
ton to her stragetic railway, is going
to build stragetic canal 1000 miles
long. The United States consul sent
an undated communication to the
State Department at Washington from
ChemnitZ, in which he says:
"a deep and long canal is to be
built by Russia to connect the Baltic
with the Black sea. This stupendous
project indicates the giant aims OF
the great empire. The canal as pro-
iected is to connect kiga, on the iai-
tic. with Cherson, on the Dneiper,
near the Black Sea: is to be 1000 miles
long, 65 meters (213.23 feeD wide at
surface, and 80 meters (50 feeD at
the base, with depth of S.5 meters
(27.9 feet). 1t is to carry easily the
biggest battle ships of the world.
From Riga the canal is to run in
to the River Dwina. thence by canals
from DwinGhIrg to Lepel, through
the Beresina and Drciner to ChcrsOr',
Is is further pro. cated to cover all the
river regions with such network OF
canals as will aid materially in devel-
oping the whole surrounding country.
ships that went hitherto by way of
the Atlantic. Mediterranean Sea and
Marmora Sea, taking more than ~
days, will need now less than 6 days.
Basins are to be built near ports and
harbors at all important points along
the canal.
"Tratlic is to be carried on day and
night at possible or permitted speed
of eleven kilometers (about seven
miles) an hour. The cost of the canal
is put down at 40O,OOO.OOO marks
(S05,200, ,000). OF course it will cost
more than this amount; such huge
works always do. 1t is to be ready
for traffic in five years"

THE MARSHAL AND MISS WILDER
ON THE WARPATH.
Horses and Mules Driven to the Tram
Cars and Busses Must be Better
Looked After.

A native buss driver and Portu-
guese tram car drive, both in the en-
ploy of paine's Company, were each
fined SIS and costs by Judge Peterson
in the Police Court this morning for
extreme cruelty to animals.
These fines are heavier than the
usual fines for such cases, but the
many light fines which have been inn
posed upon the tram and buss drivers
has had no good result.
Miss Helen Wilder president of the
Honolulu Humane Society, and spe,
cial police officer, has devoted "a great
deal of her time to looking after the
animals used by Paine's men. She
has become discouraged with the APP
parent Indifference the management
and even the men take in the matter.
She has recommended to Marshal
Brown that more stringent measures
be taken for bringing the Tramway
and Buss Company to the realization
that they cannot abuse their animals
in the frightful way that they have
been doing for many months past.
The marshal has decided to conduct
a regular police crusade against this
company. Today he will notify the
management by letter, giving ample
warning that a continuance of the
cruelty to animals will not be toler-
ated any further. If it is not reme-
died at once, then a wholesale prose-
cution will be started.
81 shall issue orders to my men,
continued the marshal. 'to halt any
car to which is attached either horses
or mules whose necks or backs are in
a bad condition. They will be taken
from the tram or buss, as the case
may be. on the spot, and the driver ar.
rested. The animals must be better
cared for at the stables. At present
they are obliged to lie down on rocks.
and | intend to see that they shall
have bedding. There is no reason for
animals being badly treated in this
country. The climate is neither too
cold nor too warm and with some care
they should always be in fairly heal
thy condition."
