WAITING FOR \ KING.
Samoans in No Hurry to Elect Their
Puppet Monarch.

Little if any progress has been yet
made by the chiefs assembled at Mu-
linuu with the important matter of
elcting a new king, says the Samoan
Herald. y.
Tamasese- has arrived at Apia, but
his advent has aroused but little com
ment and practically no excitement.
Considering that such a large num-
Der of Samoans are collected at Null
nuu and that but short time ago
many of them were bitterly opposed
to one another, the good order pre-
served is most creditab1e.
There is a rumor floating in the air
that unless the government speedily
makes arrangements for the election
of a king the Tumua will take mat
ters into their own hands, nominate
the high Chief Mataafa, record their
votes and refer the matter to the chief
Justice.

ON A STRKEtkANSANS OFF FOR MANILA
THE INDIANA LEAVES PROMPTLY
THIS MORNING.
The Band Plays and the Men Cheer
An Early Morning Start for the Far
East.

Promptly at o'clock this morning,
the United States troopship Indiana
cast off her lines, backed slowly out
from the lrmgard wharf, and by
o'clock was passing out of the chan
mel on her way to Manila.
There were very few at the wharf
to see the Kansans leave; the hour
was too early and no one believed that
a transport announced to sail at 6
o'clock would get away before or 9.
But the Indiana broke the record. She
left promptly.
Ten men out of the two battalions
of the Twentieth Kansas who came
here on the Indiana were left at the
military hospital But aside from
these every man was on hand. None
was accidentally" left.
If there was not much of a crowd
at the wharf to see the Kansans off
and give eclat to their departure. the
men themselves were not lacking in
enthusiasm, nor was there lack of
real dramatic effect Then men were
all on deck or had climbed up in the
rigging. They cheered Justify at what
ever was suggested as appropriate for
cheer. The band had their instru-
ments and their lungs with them, and
played all the national airs and few
Hawaiian tunes they have picked up
since they have been here.
The Kansans made a good impress
sion while they were here.
The ten men left at the military hos
pital are:
John Watson, Raymond Doires and
Charles Graves. of Company B; John
Williams, K: Albert Van De We're, I;
Jacob Shields, F.; Martin Rinza. Will

BRIGHT PROSPECTS.

BY the Moana today the Governments
has written to Engineer Herring in
New York relative to the sewerage
system. Mr., Herring is a world speci-
alist upon these matters and the gov
ernment feels that though lie laid out
the system for the town, it would be
well to have further information.
The new issue of bonds which is for
the sewerage system and for other
public work undertaken lately seems
to be viewed favorablv by local cap
italists and Minister Damon hopes to
see the whole issue taken up.

INVENTED A FERIIL|ZERCHEF MATAAFA IN EXILE
SUGAR BOILER HAS \ CHEAP
SCHEME TO ENRICH SOIL.
Gus Froboese of Kahuku will Patent
Compost of Common Plantation
Material.

Gus Froboese, sugar boiler of ka-
huku plantation. has invented a ferti-
liZer that, if it proves the success
promised for it. will become an impor-
tant factor in bringing sugar lands
to a state of profitable cultivation.
Professor Maxwell, of the Sugar Plan
terS' Association. and Professor In
gals of Punahou, are at present maxi
ing some analyses of the compost and
will be able to report i'm week upon
its chemical properties.
The leading point in favor of the
fertilizer is its cheapness. \ principal
ingredient is molasses, which annu-
ally goes to waste on all of the planta-
tions. Another property is lime. To
this composition the inventor adds a
chemical, the name of which he de-
clines to divulge for in it lies the Sc
cret of the preparation. This proper
ty hardens the mass till it comes out
of the machine used in preparing the
fertilizer like rock. In this state,
however. it is brittle. A simple device
is used to powder and prepare it for
plantation purposes.
Mr.. Froboese states that something
like 400 tons of the fertilizer has been
used on Kahuku plantation with the
greatest success. So far as that par.
ticular soil is concerned the invention
seems to meet all requirements.
Of course it is impossible to say how
it would work under different condi-
tions. That is what the inventor is
endeavoring to determine in securing
expert analyses of it. The prepara-
tion can be placed upon the market
for SIS per ton. If it proves success
Mr.. Forboese proposes to lay it be.

A REPUBLICAN VICTORY
KANSAS SOLDIERS THREE TO
ONE AGAINST FUSION.
Results of the First American Elec-
tion Held in the Hawaiian Islands
The Count Not Yet Finished.

So far as the Twentieth regiment is
concerned, the Kansas Republicans
have gained a sweeping victory. At
the election yesterday held on the
Irmgard wharf, the Republican NOM
inees got nearly three votes to one for
their Fusion opponents. For govern
or the Republican candidate, W. E..
Stanley, received 352 votes to ia for
the Fusionist candidate and present
governor, John w. Leedy. For asso-
ciate Justice, William r. Smith. receiv-
ed $50 votes; his opponent, S. II. Allen
III votes.
The vote on the remainder of the
ticket was about the same. For con-
gresham all the Republican candi
dates except Reeder in the Sixth dis
trict, received a majority. In this
district, Mccormick, Fusionist, ran
ahead of Reeder. The vote for legisla-
tive and county officers had not been
counted when the Indiana sailed.
There were votes cast for members of
the Legislature in sixty-five districts.
1t will take at least six days, so it is
said, to make up the returns on ac-
count of the immense amount of cler-
ical work involved owing to the very
large number of election precincts
through which the vote is scattered.
The returns will therefore have to be
sent from Manila and may not reach
Kansas until after the legislature has
met

HOW REGARDED BY HIS FELLOW
ENILES.
The Samoan Chiefs Tell of Their Stay
in Jaluit and Good Treatment by the
German Governor.

The Samoa Herald gives some de-
tails of the exile of Mataafa, one of
the candidates for the Samoan throne.
The information comes incidentally
in an account of picnic which had
been given in honor of the returned
chiefs, and is as follows:
During the exile of Mataafa it APP
pears that his companions treated
him with the greatest consideration
and veneration. At the recent picnic
it was noted that although many of
the followers of this high chief were
placed at the table by the host, but
three of those present presumed to eat
until the high chief had left the table.
During the bathing it was noted that
when Mataafa entered the pool all
others deserted it. These little cour-
tesies were not extended in any os-
tentious manner, but were only de-
signed as an expression of high re-
gard.
In telling of their experiences at ia
luit. Mataafa and his friends were
careful to explain that they had been
kindly treated and that Mataafa and
Punivalu had been treated to a trip
around the Marshall group in one of
the government steamers.
They said that at Jaluit they had
fixed up their own quarters so neatly
that the German governor had fire.
quently pointed them out to the na-
tives of those islands as models of
cleanliness. They had during their
stay planted quite a field of bananas,
and the result had been such that they
were actually able to give away to
their Jauit friends quite a lot of the
fruit Occasionally they had receiv-
ed taro and yams that were brought
to Jaluit from Bonabe. At Jaluit they
had learned to drink beer which had
been supplied to them from time to
time

VAN WICK WINS.
Proves a Favorite Over Roosevelt
Among the Soldiers.

Van Wyck is believed to have re-
reived a good majority of the votes
cast by the New York soldiers yester-
day. Each voter sealed his own bal
lot. They will all be sent to the Sec
retary of State of New York to be
opened by him and sent to the various
counties to be counted with the local
vote. For this reason the votes were
not counted here, and results are only
estimates.
There were in all about $50 votes
cast. OF these il is estimated Roose-
welt got 200 and Van Wyck 800. Roose-
velt's remarks about the volunteers
lost him great many votes among
the soldiers. Only about As per cent
of the soldiers voted. In fact there
was comparatively little interest
shown in the election

TYPEWRITERS!!

In no line of mechanics is excellence
of construction of such vital import
ance as in Typewriters.
The PEERLESS is especially noted
for its durability, simplicity and its
speed.
Considering first cost only the
PEERLESS is not one of the So
called "cheap machines" but looking
at it from business point of view,
comparing quantity and quail
ity of work, loss of time from break
downs on steamer days, when the
Typewriter is most needed, and cost
of repairs, as well as the life of the
Typewriter, the PEERLESS is with
out an equal and is the cheapest ma
chine on the market.
