In the matter of the mandamus pro-
ceedings, brought by DR.. j. B. Brady to
compel the territorial board of dental ex-
aminers to meet and organize, Judge
Laughlin decided that the title to an office
could not be determined in mandamus
proceeding, denied the application for a
peremptory writ and dismissed the Pc
tition. This action grew out of the fact
that DR.. d. W. Maney was appointed and
confirmed as a member of the aforesaid
dental board two years ago aud claimed
that his appointment ran for four years;
while Dc. Brady claimed that, by appoint
ment of Governor Thornton and con-
firmation by the last council, he WAS DR..
Manley's successor on the board

A MAGNIFICENT GEM.
Probably the Largest and Finest Tur-
quOis in the World Being Cut
in santa Ee.

New MEXICAN representative was yes
terday shown, and permitted tenderly to
handle, probably the largest and finest
turquois IN the world. 1t weighs in the
rough l76 carrots and it is estimated by
competent experts that it will weigh fully
50 carets fine when cnt and polished. 1t
has the best color known, being deli
cate sky blue, just shade lighter than a
blue birds wing, which is the tint known
as the American standard of color or that
approved by Tiffany, the famous New
York jeweler and dealer in rare gems.
1t is estimated to be worth $4,000; is
from new discovery, the exact location
of which is withheld for the present, and
is n the possession of Mr.. Thomas Moore,
who has for years acted as Tiffany's ex
pert and lepidary in Santa Fe. As soon
as it is cut ard polished it will be for
warded to Tiffany by express.
Readers of the New MEXICAN will I'M
derstand why this magnificent gem is so
very valuable when it is explained that
the celebrated Tiffany turquois, taken
from the Tiffany mines in this county,
about IL miles south of Santa Fe, weighs
only GO carets and is valued at $4,000.
Of course turquois, like diamonds and
other precious stones, readily command
fancy prices when they are extraordinary
in size and perfection.
In this connection the NEW MEXICAN is
reminded that the Denver Republican
recently made quite an ado about a 81
caret tarquois called the Jumbo, which
was exhibited in Denver by George Sim
mons as the product Of the alleged tur
quois mines "near Albuquerque" and
estimated to be worth $4,000. As no such
mines exist "near Albuquerque" doubt.
less the Jumbo came from the mines in
south Santa Fe county.
Mr.. Moore also has a number of smaller
gems from the same new discovery, all of
which are faultless in color and texture
be has sold one Of these, weighing 90
carrots, to New York gentleman for
$500, the money to be paid after the stone
has been approved by Tiffany.
The composition of the turauois is
alumina, peroxide of iron, peroxide of
copper, peroxide of manganese, sulphate
of lime and silica. The beautiful colors
are produced by n blending of the three
peroxides.

EXECUTIVE OFFICER REYNOLDS
AND HIS TRIP TO HAWAII.
An Opportunity to Build the Hospital
at a Small Cost Not Appreciated by
iIilo People-Otlicial Inactivity.

Mr.. Reynolds, executive officer Of
the Board of Health, is back again
from IIilo and is going ahead with the
new hospital at that place as fast as
possible. Tenders have already been
advertised for in Hilo, and also in Ho-
nolulu, that local contractors might
have chance to bid. These tenders
will be opened on March 3rd and the
actual building operations will COM
mence as soon thereafter as possible.
when | went to Ililo." said Mr..
Reynolds this morning, 81 found that
one of the best carpenters and build
ers there was in the prison and the
thought struck me that if | could only
utilize his labor without offending the
public | might save about one-third OF
the appropriation, which could be
used in adding to the structure. i went
around and talked the matter over
with a number of prominent citizens,
and they appeared to be well pleased
with the idea. l was about to adopt it
when some one raised the hue and cry
that | was pitting convict labor
against legitimate. / tried to answer
it by telling them that the hospital
was to be a charitable and public one
and that the appropriation granted us
by the government was so miserably
small that we must economize to get
any results at ALL but none would see
it in that light and | had to beat n
hasty retreat After another talk with
the people l had first seen. in which
they nearly all retreated from their
previous views. l decided to advertise
for tenders and give the contractors a
from the small appropriation, but
hope it will be a good beginning"
While Mr.. Reynolds was in Hilo he
made an attempt to straightep out tho
says that the physicians are generally
observing the law. but that there are
occasional infractions that must not
be overlooked. Recently sealer got
in during the night, and landed it's
crew on the island. without under
going inspection by either medical or
customs officers. Mr.. Reynolds was in
favor of prosecuting the intruders for
their lack of observance of the laws,
but no one seemed to be willing to
take the initial step and so the matter
was dropped.
Mr.. Reynolds stopped off at Maui,
both on the up and down trips, and
reports that work is progressing favor
ably on the Malulani hospital there.
New iron roofs are being put on, much
paint is being used and a great deal

CHICAGO BUSINESS MAN NOW
VISITING THE ISLANDS.
Party Left for Volcano and VIII Soon
Visit Japan-G. II. Thorne, Close
Friend of a Cabinet Officer.

Mr.. George X. Thorne, who, with his
sons, control two-thirds of the stock
of Montgomery, Ward & Company, the
mammoth business concern of Chica-
go, has been a much Interested observ-
er of Honolulu and surroundings since
his arrival on the peking Saturday last
with his family and three other prom
inent Chicago society ladies'
The members of this jolly party are
headed for Japan, where they intend
seeing all there is to see. But, before
leaving for this popular little country
among tourists, Mr.. Thorne and his
companions intend doing as much in
Hawaii, as far as taking in the
sights" is concerned. They will devote
at least three weeks to do this. Mr..
Thorne and his party have gone to
the volcano.
Mr.. Thorne is one of the pioneer
business men of Chicago. He has
gradually worked his way up in life
until today he is at the head of one
of the biggest concerns of it's kind III
the country and is counted among
Chicago's most enterprising and SUB
stantial citizens. An interesting fact
about him is that he is close fri nd
of Lyman j. Gage, president of the
First National Bank of Chicago, who
has accepted the treasury portfolio in
McKinley's Cabinet.
"Yes, l have known Mr.. Gage for a
many years" began Mr.. Thorne yes
terday morning in a brief interview.
"It was just about thirty years ago
that l opened up an account with his
bank and have kept it there ever since.
Mr.. Gage was cashier at that time and
he has risen to the top of the ladder by
dint of hard work, honest and iair
dealings and his knowledge of the
banking business. Mr.. Gage is a man
of wonderful executive ability and he
is thoroughly independent doing what
he thinks is right and for the best at
all times. He is man who is not now
or will be in the ruts of Wall street.
Foreign money powers can exercise no
domineering influence over him during
his regime in the United States treas.
ury department"
Asked in regard to business condi-
tions in the States, Mr.. Thorne replied
that times were not as brisk at pres
ent as he would like to see them. How
ever, he hoped for and rather expects
a general revival in business circles
throughout the entire country very
soon after the Mckinley administra-
tion takes hold.

SOLD HER STOCK.

Mrs. Emma Spreckels-Watson has
disposed of all of her stock in the
Oceanic Steamship Company, con-
trolled by her father and her two eld-
er brothers. The block consisted of
$1,000 shares and was sold in parts.
The average price was $25. Thus the
daughter of the house finds herself in
the possession of $4,000 in cash and
severed from business relations with
her near though estranged relations.

PLAN TO FURNISH WHITES ITO
REPLACE ORIENTALS.
w. n. Armstrong Has Faith in the
VIII Lend Their Aid.

The old order has changed with Il
vengeance in Hawaii. With the new
form of government have come new
ideas of political economy and sociol-
ogy, not the least important of which
is desire on the part of those having
the perpetual good of the islands at
heart to supercede the mongolan
labor on the plantations with inteli-
gent American industry, says late
Chronicle, Labor Commissioner Fitz-
gerald of this city is apprised in a let
ter received yesterday that move
ment has gained headway in this di-
rection and may develop much of in
terest for the unemployed of Cali
fornia.
The letter is from w. n. Armstrong.
In January Mr.. Armstrong, while on a
visit here, gave considerable study to
the local labor question. Since his
return to the islands he has, evidently,
with the result outlined in the letter
from him to Labor Commissioner Fitz-
gerald, which reads:
HONOLULU, Hawaiian Islands, Jan
uary 2S, 1S97.-E. l.. Fitzgerald. San
Francisco, Cal.-Dear Sir: There is
much interest taken here in the en-
ployment of white labor on the plan
tations. One of the largest is now
considering the question of putting
up the buildings necessary and send
ing to you for families. | have advised
the managers to invite you down here
at once so that you could advise intel
ligently on the subject. l believe this
will be done. | informed them that
you might not be able to come at once,
owing to the need of your presence in
Sacramento. The managers believe
that the arrangements for white labor
should be such that it may work sep
arately either by Japanese or Chinese.
All this will involve considerable en-
pense, but believe it will be willing
ly made.
Few here have faith that you can
furnish reliable laborers and they will
watch the experiment with much in
terest.
The time for making contracts and
the time for planting cane is after the
month of May, so that there is no pres
sure for time. | would be glad to
know at what time you could leave and
visit us, in case the invitation is sent
you.
Mr.. Fitzgerald feels confident he
could procure good white labor for
the islands and the Government. it is
understood, is prepared to offer all in.
ducements not only to the laborer, but
to his family as well. He is positive,
however, that to be successful the pro-
ject must receive official recognition
in California as well as Hawaii.
