ond great ride Aubrey left Santa Fe
for Canifornia, and, upon his depart
ure for that region, Weightman pub
iShed an account of his friends leav-
ing, which, however. did not at all meet
with Aubrey's approval. Upon the lat
ter's return to Santa Fe in 1854 he
and Weighman met, of course, adj
journed TO saloon, where both ordered
whisky, but before either had time 70
raise their glasses to their mouths, Au-
brey said to Weightman:
why did you publish that id lie
about my going to California;" The
manner in which Aubrey put the ques-
ton angered Major Weightnan, and he
threw his whisky in Aubrey's face.
Aubrey reached for his revolver, but
before he could draw it, Weightman
sprang upon him and plunged his
bowie knife into Aubrey's heart, killing
him instantly. Weightman was, Of
course, acquitted of the charge of muir
der.
Aubrey lies buried in an unknown
grave.
On his last great ride he rode day
and night, stopping only long enough
to leap from his tired animal and
spring onto a fresh one. He made more
than 200 miles every "A hours, and all
the sleep he took aggregated but three
hours during the entire five days. Au-
brey's ride eclipsed that famous one
recorded in the old English legends
of the outlaw, Dick Turpin, from Lon
don to York.
Weightman was a dapper little fell
low, extremely polite and affable, prid-
ing himsely upon first family con-
nections, and always sported a fine
cane. He had a small round ball of
head, bald on top, light hair. fOrid
complexion and small, piercing. deep
set eyes. He was man of some abil-
ity, q fierce Southerner and defender of
slavery. He was plucly. He was poor
as he was proud; high liver, with the
tastes and habits of millionaire and
the purse of a pauper. He resided in
AtchisOn, Kan, for several years; was
city recorder for one or two terms and
was a candidate for reelection in 1861,
but was defeated. When deprived of
his Office he was literally reduced to
eXtremities. Weightman was a most
gallant officer in the Mexican war, and
when hOStiitieS commenced between
the north and south he joined the con-
federate forces, with which all his SYM
pathies were enlisted. At the terrible
battle of Wilson's creek, at the head of
summit of Bloody hill" three bullets
pierced his body. He and General
Lyon fell within 80 PAGES of each other.
Both were brought off the field and
laid side by side upon blankets under
the shade of the same tree.-Atlanta

Ten Days Set for Limit Of An
DGIati0l Debate in Senate.
WHITE URGED TO FALL IN LINE
Strength Placed at Not Less Than
Sixty-More News of Vic
toriOus Fleet.

WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE back
bone of the opposition to Hawaiian
annexation is broken. Ten days now
is set as the limit Of debate and the
only danger lies in the fact that many
Republicans have made pairs and
gone home, which may prevent vote.
Senators Davis, Frye and Lodge, how
ever say they do not fear this out
come.
The pressure Of the House Demo-
Gratis upon Senator White has COM
menced. Many leaders in the House
on the Democratic side have expressed
their opinion that White is seriously
damaging their chances before the
people this fall. This is being inn
pressed upon White and as we'll upon
Senator Jones of Arkansas, chairman
of the Democratic National Commit
tee.
Jones today admitted the force Of
this argument, and White, in the
course of private conversation, where
he expressed himself freely, said he
thought a fair discussion would take
not more than ten days. This would
indicate a vote early in the last week
of June, which may mean adjourn
ment by July I'd. Meanwhile there is
a steady growth of the annexation
feeling in the Senate. Tonight there
is a belief that the strength of the
Newlands resolution is not less than
sixty. Senator Mills, Senator McLau-
ren, Senator Wellington and Senator
Sullivan are now counted for the res
OlutiOn. All but the latter have been
claimed all the time by the opposi-
ton, but today they were put into the
annexation column.
The NeWlands resolution was re-
ported in the Senate today and Davis
gave notice that he would call up the
measure tomorrow. Later, however,
the Senate adjourned until Monday.
The resolution will be called up Mon
day just after morning business.
Only about fifteen minutes time was
consumed by the Senate Foreign Rela-
tiOns Committee in reaching a con
clusiOn to report the resolutions for
the acquisition of the Hawaiian
Islands by the United States. Only
two of the Democratic members, Tur-
pie and Mills, were present at the
meeting, and they contented them
selves by recording their votes in op-
position to a motion to report favor
ably, showing no disposition to delay
the action by the committee. Sen
ator Davis stated that he was author

A DEATH AT SEA.

The following excellent account Of
the first death aboard a transport in
the Pacific, was furnished the Adver-

and with the Nebraska regiment:
The most distressing incident Of the
trip occurred Tuesday when Sergt.
George Geddes of Company c from
Beatrice died from a complication OF
brain trouble. His remains were the
first to find a watery grave on this or
any previous expedition where the
United States has been engaged in
the conquest OF a foreign country: the
body being lowered to the waters when
out at sea about 1900 miles from San
Francisco. Chaplain MailIey was call

duty much to his regret. Geddes had
been sick at San Francisco presum-
ably with a cold but fought against II.
It is thought that he caught cold in
his head and while sea sick neglected

The L. S. Monitor Monterey, Com
mander Leutze, arrived in port yester-
day afternoon in company with the
Brutus. Both ships anchored in naval
row and will remain in port until
Tuesday when they will proceed on
their way to Manila The Monterey
is well known and was an object Of
greatest admiration and favorable dis
cussion by the hundreds of people who
collected along the water front to see
her come in. The Brutus, the collier
that accompanied the Monterey, is
commanded by Lieutenant Cottman
and is named by regular man-of-war
crew. She was formerly the Peter
Jebsen.
The Monterey had a rough time of
it on her trip down. Added to the loss
Of coal sustained when short dis
tance away from San Francisco was
a continuation of rough weather after
leaving San Diego on the 18th. When
three days away from port, the coal Of
the Monterey which was not Of first
class quality, ran short. This of course
impeded the progress of both. Other
wise they might have been here a day
ago.
The Monterey brought newspapers
for the various news stores and news
papers of the city but she was fore
stalled by the regular mail boat from
San Francisco.

JUST LOOKED AROUND

The Boys in Blue who came by the
three troop ships following the China
put in all of yesterday morning up
town. They were about everywhere in
squads with sergeants in charge and
had a good time looking into grounds,
resting in the shade and eating fruit.
They were given fruit and flowers and
made a good many purchases them
selves. Several hundred of the Boys
had baths at the boat houses. A good
many of the men and nearly all of the
officers had carriages at their disposal
and went into the suburbs. There
were always some citizens to chat to
the boys and tell them of life in Homo
lulu. Not a few of the boys were quite
willing to do some of the talking them
selves. They have been rather cOOped
up in that direction for a good long
time. They told of little incidents
aboard ship and of hopes for the fut-
ure and even went to mentions of
plans as far in the future as return
home About 80 per cent of all the
Boys in Blue declare they will settle in
Honolulu when the war is over.
