BRIT CONVICTED.
Reputed Transaction With Chinese
AdiudGed Grave Offense.

Chester Doyle returned from Lihue,
Kauai. on the w. G. Hall Sunday morn
ing with J. Brit, the man charged with
selling a mixture Of poi for opium to
Chinaman on the Garden Isle a short
time ago. Birt's capture here has al
ready been dwelt upon in these eolu-
INNS. He was sent to Kauai and on
Wednesday last, the writ of habeas
corpus in the case of the Republic OF
Hawaii vs.. J. Brit for gross cheat, was
argued before Judge Hardy at Kappa.
Sheriff Coney appeared for the prosecu-
ton and Attorney G. D. Gear of this
city for the defense. The whole fore
noon was spent in argument. Judge
Hardy reserved his decision until Fri
day morning, at which time he denied
the writ.
Brit was taken back 10 Lihue and on
Saturday, the case was tried. Defen-
dant was fined $500 and costs. AS it is
claimed he sold his poi mixture to the
Chinaman for $3.50 it appears he is
something like $3.50 in pocket. Brit init
mated yesterday that he would prob
ably appeal his case.
! C. Clark, the man charged with being
accessory in the same case, was found
not guilty and discharged.

SOME NOTABLE TARGET SHOOTING

The Others Comparisons-IndI
vidual Records Made.

About all the First Regiment men
who could get away from the garrison
or town on Saturday afternoon were on
the Kakaako shooting range. Six Of
the eight companies of the uniformed
National Guard entered teams Of 20
men each. This event was the first of
a series of shoots for the magnificent
trophies offered by Minister Cooper.
The big prize is to be a heavy shield
to go to the victorious company. There
Will be besides a handsome medal for
the individual making the best score
during the match.
In the contest so far, Company G.,
composed entirely of native Hawaiians,
leads The boys have praciced most
diligently and are congratulated warm
ly by their rivals and others. For
many months the boys of G have had
something of this sort in view and
when the day came they were ready.
1t was not a day for high scores.
The wind was not only high at times,
but was irregular throughout the aft
ernoon. There was rain at times.
Captain Schaefer was in charge Of the
range. The 120 men shot their scores
of ten shots each in four hours and a
half. There We're no accidents, but
there are many hard luck stories cur
rent. Captain Smiths Company A, is
commended for putting in a team and
doing so well. The worst falls" OF
the day were by men in E, F and D
Perhaps the best shooting OF the day
was done by Kukahi of G, who made
a clean miss on his second shot and
then finished with a score of fOrty-one
It was unfortunately impossible for h
or c. to have teams.
New trophy shooting now on IN the
companies is with A and H. Captain

blowing the land fourteen inches deep
feel satisfied that with this pow the draft
for the same quantity and depth of work IS as

We had q great treat at our town

Bryan with his Nebraska regiment
stopped here for an hour and they
electrified everybody. with their

regiment we have seen. The best
looking, the best behaved and the
best equipped, and they love and
idolize their colonel. They feel
elevated and refined by his com
manding presence and wouldn't do
anything that would mortify his
pride or wound his feelings. What
o. grand and noble man he is. How
majestic in person, how gentle in
manners, how inspiring IN language
and conversation. How our hearts

out of the war, and the nation will
need a Bryan at the helm of gov

OUR friend, the enemy, is not
without justification in asking a
clear definition of what is meant at
Washington by the "immediate
evacuation" of Cuba and Porto
Rico. 1t will be remembered that
the Spanish troop surrendered at
Santiago were to be sent home i'm.
mediately. That was early in
July. 1t is now August and the
embarkation Is not begun. There
is a vague intimation that the pris-
orers may get back to Spain some
time in September. Under the
circumstances The term "immediato
evacuation" may we'll appear some
what vague, even to M. Cambon.
At tho same rate of progress--and
Spain could hardly be expected to
move faster than the United States
it would take year or so to get
all of Blanco's forces out of Cuba.
Would the war have to go on till
that was accomplished2 Or would
a contract with a Spanish steam
ship company, for future delivery,
be accepted as a sufficient evidence
of peaceful intentions? 1t Is not
strange that NJ. Cambon wants to
have these things defined.

1t is not generally known that
Arizona has a hero that participat.
ed in the battle of Malate, near
Manila, on the night of the 3lst OF
July, but nevertheless such is the
fact.
Young Finley of Yuma, when the
American forces were attacked by
the Spanish on that now historical
night, the Tenth Pennsylvania
regiment running short of ammuni-
ton, drove cart right through the
firing line when the battle was at
Its height, and his native oompan-
ion shot by his side and finally one
of the horses bit the dust with a
Spanish bullet through the should
er. With rare presence Of mind he
embarrassed the wounded horse
and proceeded with the remaining
horse, went to the arsenal and pro-
cured the much needed American
persuaders and returned glorlously
to the relief of the heroic Pennsyl-
vania lads. On his return trip he
picked up wounded Pennsylvania
captain and lieutenant from the
battlefeld.-Tucson Citizen.

SACRIFICE OF A BRAVE ARMY

9th, says edltorially:
Hope deferred has sickened the

promises that they will be relieved
"as soon as transports can be OBJ

short as possible and the troops

fresh admiration for the tremen-
dous courage and every other SOL

most inadequate provision for even

have forgotten lhem. Some feeble
and mlsmanaged efforts have been
made to bring away the wounded
and some few of the sick, but what
energy is possessed by the War
Department has been turned in
other directions and the army at
Santiago has been left to perish.
While day by day the reports
have come of four or five thousand
soldiers on the sick list and hun
dreds of news cases of fever, they
have still been told to wait. First
the excuse was made that the
Spanish prisoners must be remov-
ey first, bnt while the contract for
their transportation was made
weeks ago, not the first Spaniard
has been embarked and not ship
is yet in sight. They must wait
for transports, but the transports
are engaged in other service. Fin,
ally, when three-fourths or more O
his army-the very flower Of the
army of the United States-were
unfit for service, and General
Shafter's reports probably grew
more urgent, he was ordered to
march his soldiers up into the
hills.
At this the patience of the COM
manding officers was exhausted.
There has been nothing so pathetic
in all this war as the statement
signed by all the division and bri.
gade commanders and concurred
in by all the chief medical officers.
The army, they say, cannot be
moved into the interior and could
not live there if it were. 1t must
be taken away. "This army must
be moved at once, or perish. AS
the army can be safely moved now

ing such move will be response
