GREW Would NOT WORK
CAPT. SCRIBNER HAS TROUBLES
OF HIS OWN.
His Men Insisted on Observing the
Holiday and They Did So-The Grew
to Be Tried.

The crew of the ship Henry b. Hyde
refused to work this morning. They
said it was Independence Day and that
they must observe the day. Their
motto is: "NVhile in Hawaii do as Ha-
waiians Do" They are keeping in
strict obedience of this rule.
Capt. Scribner vows that the sailors
shall be tried for their refusing to
work and insubordination. The men
will be brought before U. S. Consul
Mills on Monday. 1t is barely pos
sible the Captain will swear out war
rants for their arrest this afternoon,
charging his men with desertion.
In the meantime the big ship, lying
alongside the Hitchcock, is almost de-
serted, only the officers being on
board. The topic under discussion
along the water front is on the
query: "Will the Hyde crew be sue
cessful in establishing a precendent
among crews in port to recognize the
holidays of the Republic?"

missionary among the lepers of the
Marquesas Islands in the South Pa

mona, on Ellis street, preparatory to
sailing for the islands on the bark
Tropic Bird. 1t was her original inten-
tion to become "a missionary on the
island of Mololiai. and she spent year
at Honolulu in trying to induce Pres
ident Smith of the Beard of Health to
permit her to carry out her intention.
He was obdurate, however, and she
then began looking elsewhere to find
another field.
Her attention was called to the Mar

Gently of Fort Calby. Wash, returned
rom a several months stay in Japan on
the steamer Peru. He says that the crown
orince OF Japan IS dead, and that the sad

matte circles, although at the same time
the news was a state secret and was kept
from the public.
The heir apparent to the Japanese
throne. according TO Captain Day. passed
AWAY at one of the palaces of the royal
family between Yokohama and Kio. Japan
has just recovered from a month or
mourning over the death OF the empress
dowager, during which period business
was suspended and festivities OF all kinds
avoided. TO infiict the whole empire with
another siege Of grief and mourning at
this time has been deemed inadvisab!e.
and for that reason the death OF the crown
prince is being kept a secret.
Captain Day said that IL was reported in
Yokohama that the death OF the crown
prince had completely Frustrated the en-
peror. whose health has not been the best
Of late. A rumor was circulated that the
emperor was dead. but this was emphatic

A KIND OF rELEPATHY.
He Was Nervous, but the
Knew What He Wanted.

lie was only one of several hundred
customers in a large Washington street
establishment and there was nothing to
a casual observer that would have dis
tinguished him from the mass Of human
ity that was pushing and crowding him
along, says the indianapolis Sentinel.
But TO an initiated eye he was different.
Aud the frightened. black-haired little
girl who had charge of several depart
Iuents on the floor recognized the diff
ference.
Ii was Saturday afternoon and he had
come in ON an excursion. The con-
ductor had forgotten 10 take the check
out Of his HAT aud was afraid he'd loose
it, so he pinned il to the band.
His face was Of the shade of red that
showed plainly that harvest was over,
while his sand-colored trousers looked
like the front legs of an elephant. He
vas %. rural, unsophisticated and
abashed.
He had stood gazing in the window Id
a sheepish. alf-~frighaned manner for
ten minutes before he came in, and,
after CHANGING neryously around, had
darted into the store between two real
old, motherly looking ladies. His eyes
wandered ~nervously from one to an
other ia the crowd, as though afraid OF
being recognized, and then he was
slowly pushed along by the crowd to-
ward the little black-haired clerk, who
had been watching him with some
amusement. She was Standing nj the
button counter nj the time.
The crowd stopped in its irregular
ebb and How and the young man was
grounded directly in front Of her, his
face roster than ever. Precipitation
started to his forehead in great beads as
she approached with a smile.
He stammered. took off his hat. raised
one foot and slowly scratched the other
leg with il and tried to speak. 1t was
no use. lie just couldn't,

came up; don't worry about il. You

His hat dropped to the floor and he
gasped as though choking on n spoon
ful Of prunes:

Never mind" she replied. kindly.
"We get so we can tell. Here is a nice
one for So"

And then he walked out with the red
check still fastened To his hat band with

WISCONSIN CONvICTS ESCAPE
They Make a Rope Of Mattress Cov-

Oshkosh, Wis. March 22.-Mike Nc
Donough and Charles Smith, convicts
transferred from the state prison to the
northern hospital, escaped from the for
mer institution last night n are still
at large.
The escape was a daring one. They
were confined in a ward on the third
story. During the night they cut up
their mattresses, tied the strips togeth-
or. forming a rope which reached from
the window 10 the ground and liberty.
One end was fastened to the bars of the
window and on this rather frail and un-
certain line they let themselves down.
The men are respectively SO and So
years Of age and were serving ten and
twenty-year sentences.
