by Mr. Plowman and the drawing of the
game between Mr.. Handy and Mr.. Will

TO save theday for America by winning
his game and the deepest interest was
manifested in every move made.
He started under the necessity of max

and Dying 10y Hundreds.
Havna, via Key West June 1.-The
plague of beri-beri continues to ravish
the province of Santiago de Cuba. Its
rapid spread is due to the abandonment
of the sick, who had been Entrusted to
the care of the municipal doctors and to
the great difficulty in obtaining medicine
from the city authorities. There are
municipal doctors who inhumanly allow
hundreds of the poor to die without Of
fering them the slightest assistance.

tions to the fall exhibition of the Kilo

of art are:
A fine contribution of water colors
by Mrs Kelly. The most important

of a group of native flower girls seated
on a mating out on the sidewalk.
They are patiently waiting for custom
ers and wear about their necks, leis
of bright hues as an advertisement of
their business.
Philip Dodge has a number of water

lively botanical C. w. Dickey has a

coloring.

large exhibit in oils The best work
seems to be in the marines and of these
study in the grays and blues called
Symphony seems to be the best pro-
ducts of his brush. Fishermen on the
! beach, hauling in a seine, is another
good piece. A number of studies in
Puma, large study of coffee planta-
ton and other work, completes the list
of Mr.. Hitchcock's productions.

pleasing and lasting effect. Among
the scenes shown are Yosemite Valley

pieces are not part of the regular

MILE A DAY.
Hard Work of City Mans Friend
on the Way to Klondike.

Geo. L. Ritman who is now in Fruit
vile, Alameda Co., California, wrote
to a friend in Honolulu by the last
steamer from the Coast relating the
trials and tribulations of his brother
while on his way to the Klondike Mr..
Ritman writes as follows:
Il am here yet and have not started
for Alaska. However, 1 have brother
who started up there. l have just heard
from him. He got over the worst part
of the journey and then a carbuncle
came on the back OF his neck. He had
to sell his outfit and go back to get
into a hospital where he had to remain
two weeks. The carbuncle was brought
on by the hard work of carrying his
packs. He had twelve in all and each
weighed 100 pounds. 1t took him 80
days to travel 80 miles so he aver
aged one mile a day, carrying 1000
pounds a day. To do that, he had to
carry one pack a mile and then go
back after another. He must have
walked "a miles a day and went 720
miles to make 80. Now think it will
be some time before l want gold bad
enough to do that"

Sam Stone Sees Spooks in Police
Station Cells.

Sam Stone Sees Spooks in Police
Station Cells.
Sam Stone, half white, is in Jail
and will likely be sent to the insane
asylum. 1t was thought at first that
Stone had been setting himself up as
a kahuna as some of his practices tend
ed in that direction. However, later
developments seem to show that he is
demented. Stone was allowed the free
dom of the police station yard on We'd
nesday and then part of Thursday
morning.
1t was noticed yesterday that Stone
acted strangely and he was locked in
a cell. One of the officers went to the
window and found Stone shaking like
an aspen leaf Asked what the matter
was, he replied that the place was full
of devils. Suddenly he pointed at the
officer and said: "You are one" and
as another officer passed by, shouted:
There's another" He then crouched
down so that he could not see the men
and there continued to shake. The
officers left. There seems to be no
doubt that Stone is crazy.
At one time he had quite promising
future before him. He was bright and
served on both the Custom House and
police forces.

Oscar Whites resignation as Captain
of Company B is to be forwarded to
the COMMUNICATIVE Chief. Both Mr..
White and Henry Giles will enlist

The Japan Mail says that it is rum
ored that some friction has occurred
between Count Okuma and the Japan
ese Cabinet which may shortly lead to
some changes in the Government.
DIR. Eagar of Oakland was a visitor

yesterday afternoon. With DR.. Emer-

Judge Hartwell left for San Fran
cisco on the Rio de Janeiro Wednesday
morning. He goes on a flying business
trip to Boston and expects to be back
in Honolulu during the latter part of
December.
News has been received of the en-
gagement of Miss Berg, a sister Of R.

time in the Regulars and he knew the
tactics from end to end. There was a
commission in sight for him in B till
the boys concluded he was getting too
disreputable. Thompson could be
pleasant and at one time had many
friends Even after considerable mis-
behavior he was favored by some of
his old comrades
Thompson is moulder by trade and
an excellent workman, but he cared
for nothing like steady toll. About
the only thing he did during the past
four years was to drive hack for short
time. He has served a term for vag-
raney. While Thompson has been ac-
cused of many depredations the police
have caught up with him for the first
time. He was captured a few nights
ago in the act of housebreaking.

Kalakaua. 1t is not anticipated that
there will be any friction, as the Gov
eminent long since made a careful in
ventory of what is to be disposed of
by auction.
The goods now offered are left from
the lot out of which the late Kate Field
and others bought a couple of years
ago. The sale then ceased because the
prices were too small Originally all
the goods were examined by agents of
the Government and representative of
the Kalakaua estate. All questions of
private ownership were then settled.

TIMELY TOPICS
NOVEMBER u, 1897.

NOVEMBER IL, io9I.
RUpGTLRS Are having
Duhubhno quite a good
time in Honolulu just now.
So accustomed are we to
take up a daily paper and find
an account of another " Oar
ing Robbery" that il is quite
a disappointment after care
fully going through the news
of the Gay to find no mention
of the usual crime.
Just who is responsible
for this state of things is an
open question. 1t is all very
well to throw reason to the
winds and accuse oGr police
force of incapacity. ETC., but
the true cause is to be found
nearer home. There are
many persons who would
not think of a criminal act,
were temptation not placed
in their way by the incau-
tious acts of many of our
citizens. ValuableS are al
lowed to lie about in all
places and at all times, and
no care whatever is taken to
secure them from curious
eyes.
The true remedy is in a
nutShell--or rather in a Safe.
The old excuse of too eX-
pensive" does not holdnow-
a-days. We carry a selection
of safes made by the first
manufacturers in the United
States in no less than 8 sizes,
from the SIS BABY" to pre-
serve the family jewels,
books, etc, to the largest Office
safe. All sizes are equally
we'll made, strong and beau
tiful.
No one can afford to be
without one--a safeguard
alike from fire and the enter
prising burglar.

Wanted Gold Fish.

An italian boy went down to the
fishmarket late yesterday afternoon and
became attracted by the color of some
gold fishes in a tin at the stalls of one
of the Cinnamon. So intent was he
upon the occupation of getting one of
these out Of the tin that he did not spy
the man who came up behind him,
gently took hold of his collar and re-
moved him to the police station. There
he was told not to do it again and was
allowed to go on his way.

A Short Session.

Senator Cecil Brown said yesterday
that he believed the next session of the
Legislature would be very brief one.
His idea was that there would be lit
tie to do beyond the enactment of ap-
preparation bills.
It has been suggested that if annex
alton is accomplished before February
that the Legislature would not sit. A
member of the Government asked yes
terday in regard to this, said all would
depend on action at Washington.

ARE PRACTICING.
Teams Getting Into Shape for
Further Football Games.


The football teams were all out again
for practice yesterday afternoon and
they mean business. The Regiment
boys are determined that they shall
not be beaten in such a manner as
they were by the Punahous, if they are
beaten at all. If they had little more
confidence in themselves and resorted
to a little swifter play, they could do a
lot better for they have the strength
and the weight.
The Town team is handicapped by
the loss of Angus and Chillingworth,
but they are putting new players into
the field and these promise to do good
work. Schermerhorn is the latest adj
dition to the list
The Punahous are confident of their
ability to beat the Town team but the
latter say that there are others" in the
field. The hackers of the students in
town are giving odds on their favorites.
The game between these two teams
will undoubtedly be the most interest
ing one of the season and will be looked
forward to with pleasure by the en-
thusiasts.

Thompson was good soldier, if bad
