A TALKING To"
Certain N. G. 4. Companies Re-
CGiVG a Bit Of SC0ldilg.
IRE or COLONEL is AROUSED
Small Turnouts the Cause-A Pleas
The Trophy Shoot.

There was a very, very slack turn
out of the First Regiment last even
ing for moonlight drill Some of the
companies were particularly gaunt. In
an address to the Regiment on Arm
ory Square Col. Fisher said that if
there was another showing of the kind
| he would recommend the disbandment
of one or more of the commands.
Capt. Zeigler was in charge of the
| first battalion and Capt Camara of the
| second. Lieut.. Needham, of d, acted
as adjutant of the second. Lieut. Lude-
wig commanded Company F and Lieut.
Costa Company c.. Headed by the
band the Regiment marched out to the
base ball grounds and there had drill.
The movements were very pretty and
were frequently appIauded by the large
body of spectators in the grand stand.
The Regiment was dismissed at the
Armory about 10 o'clock
Gen. King addressed a personal let
ter to Col Fisher yesterday, which ex-
pressed plainly the commanders high
regard for the territorial troops of
Hawaii. He began with regrets that
an important previous engagement
would prevent his witnessing the
moonlight turnout Of the Regiment,
but hoped to see the troops at some
later time. The note closed with the
assurances tnat the commander would
do all in his power for the volunteers
OF Honolulu.
The captains of Companies b, D, F.
and G consulted with Col Fisher after
drill last night respecting a postpone
ment of the Foreign Office trophy
shoot, scheduled for tomorrow after
noon. No definite conclusion was
reached but it seems certain that
there will not be a pOstponement The
fact that many of the men desire to
attend the reception at MOanalua
brought up the discussion. Capt Paul
Smith, of Company A on the day of
the shoot will be officer of the range
The dance and reception of the Offic-
eTs of the n. G. II. to the American
Army officers now in Honolulu will al
most certainly take place next Friday
evening. Invitations will be issued
the first of the week.
Companies G and d will not meet
this evening. This is official.
The arrangement committee on the
Company d ball will meet at the drill
shed at 1880 this evening.
Capt. q. BergstTOm has ordered the
following members of Company d to
report at the KakaakO range between
the hours Of 1870 and 4 Saturday after |

known as the Claus Spreckels place,
Will again change hands 1t was pur-
chased from the San Francisco sugar
king by Judge II. 4. Widemann of this
city about a year ago. At that time a
number of people were most desirous
of securing the property. The place
adjoins Sans Souci, has large, costly
and modern buildings and the finest
bathing facilities. The new owner will
be Jas b. Castle, formerly collector
general of customs and lately secretary
of the Hawaiian Legation at Washing
ton. Mr.. J. b. Castle has long desired
to have residence for himself in Wal
kiki and a few days ago was able to
buy the place from Mr.. Widemann.
When Mr.. Castle takes possession he
will construct a house which he has
planned as an ideal beach home.

THE METHODIST FAIR.
A Most Successful and Pleasant
Event OF Last Evening.

The Ladies Aid Society of the Meth
odist church gave a most excellent and
profitable lawn festival at the parson-
age last evening, beginning at and
concluding about 10 o'clock. In the
afternoon, tea was served on tables un-
der the trees. The place was filled
with people. At evening the yard was
prettily Illuminated with Japanese
lanterns. A crowd thronged the place
and kept coming and going all even
ing.
The tables were arranged under the

Mrs. James Lyle, Mrs. Pearson, Mrs.
Chaplin, Mrs. Petrie, Miss Edith Bry-
ant, Miss Lila Ripley, Miss Petrie and
a dozen others were in charge. Flowers
were sold by little girls on the grounds.
The affair was in every sense an
immense success. AS a social function
it was one of the best ever given by
the church and a handsome sum was
realized from it.

THE RINGER CASE.
Evidence Points to Hao1es as MUIR
derers of Kiki.

dSrSrS or kIkl.
There was a new and perhaps more
serious phase to the Kiki Ringer case
yesterday. Marshal Brown received in
formation that seems to shift the muir
der from native to white men. Last
night indications pointed strongly in
that direction. Credence is given to
the information for the reason that it
is not believed natives would keep the
facts of a crime so long.
The Mikahala arrived early yesteF-
day morning. Four sailors on her,
who were, in a measure, suspected,
were arrested. Every effort to CLEAN
any tangible testimony from them
failed and they were released. 1t is be-
lieVed that they know nothing 1t was
later that the evidence as TO white men
came in.
All day and last night Marshal
Brown was exceedingly reticent about
the matter. All police officers con-
nected with the investigation were ord
cred to keep close mouths. 1t is con-
fidently expected that there will be
some important developments today

"Old Glory" has been subjected
to an affront. 1t is not an inter-
national episode or n casus belli
but it is matter that should be
remedied. When the war broke
out the mayor directed that the
towns flag should fly Mt the mast
head all the time. His command
was taken literally. The man
whose duty it may be to care for
the stars and stripes in Florence
ran her up and left the flag
floating night and day in the
breeze. Now at army posts and
other we'll regulated places the
flag is always lowered at sunset.
Respect for the colors extends to
taking care that they are not
bleached by exposure to bad
weather, But the flag in Florence
has been allowed to become dis
colored and spotted and for at
least week past it has not hoated
in the breeze at all but has re-
manned in semi-topsy-turvey con-
dition, with one end tangled in
the top of the flag pole. We di-
rect attention to its condition in
the hope that due respect and at
tention will be paid to the emblem
of the nation in future.

Red River, Taos county, March 30,
1s9s.-And still it storms. A snow
storm every third or fourth day is the
rule-and has been all through the
month. March has been decidedly the
most d~isagreeable month Of the winter
up In these mountains.
DR.. j. V. Slaughter and s. e. Moore,
Philadelphia gentlemen, stockholders In
the Red River Mining company, have
been in camp this week looking after
the company's interests. 1t Is said the
company intends to pay up Its defaulted
labor bills and resume work on the
Stella. Their promises to pay have
been plentiful for q year, but the money
comes very much slower than 1t ought
from men who claim to be m~illionaires.
B. j. Young and DR.. J. T. Reed went
to Taos on business yesterday.
The ''boom" must be coming-at
least things have been lively sc far this
| week. Two or three cases Of booze
on Sunday, two fights on Monday night,
a "scrap" Tuesday noon and the school
fund increased by $50 make q very good
showing for a dull season. At this rate
we ought soon to have enough money
on hand for another month OF school.
Work on mining claims has fallen of
considerably Of 1ate-probably on &C
count of the disagreeable weather. But
the boys will all be at work again soon
