have been a Woodworking man Of
business, always perhaps little nerv-

ought to get up than when he went to

boiling mouthful Of breakfast, rushes
off to catch the train or trolley, wor-

office. At lunchtime, particularly If
he Is busy, he takes, not meal, but a

standing, and often bolted in such

If he makes heavy meal he renders
himself unfit for the duties Of the after

things-a quiet, simple lunch taken
quietly and sitting down should be in

Bulldozing Bill Testif,es.

Bulldozing Bill was on the stand as
a witness for the defense in the case
of Bronco Charlie, charged with shoot
iLg and wounding Everlasting Eph-
rain. Ordinarily there would have
been no prosecution in such a case,
but Bronco Charlie had used shot
gun, and as the etiquette of the from
tier prescribed Winchesters or six
shooters, public sentiment was
aroused.
The prosecuting attorney was a re-
cent arrival from the east, and his
method of procedure was in itself
enough to clear prisoner before any
jury in Arizona. He asked:
s'Was the man shot and wounded?"
"Yep," was the answer.
"Was the gun loaded?"
81 dunno"
The lawyer thought he saw a
chance to confuse the witness. "Now,
sir, will you please explain to the
court, sir, how a. man could possibly
be shot with gun that was not load
ed, sir?"

On Thursday morning, May u, the
gunboat Wilmington steamed close in
to the coast and keys of the town OF
Cardenas, Cuba. Its gun crews were at
their stations and every man on board,
from Captain Todd to the signal boy,
had but one burning idea, "Avenge the
Winslow."
The watchword along the crowded
decks and in the heated engine room,
where the blackened giants toiled
stripped to the waist, was Remember
the Winslow," and Damn q pacific
blockade"
Within range of the powerful four
inch broadsides were the Spanish gun
boats which had decoyed the Winslow
up to the masked batteries and had
dealt out sudden death, and near the
forts lay two schooners at anchor.
Reports Of mines planted in the en-
trance to the channels were disregard
cd. The Wilmington was no longer a
blockader. 1t had become destroyer,
and for an hour hurricane of explod-
ing projectiles beloved and shrieked
into the harbor of Cardenas, not
against the town, but against the ships
and defenses, and the Spanish troops
and sailors. The gunners Of the Will
mington do not waste ammunition, and
the execution was remarkable
Nearly 900 four-inch, one-inch, and
six-pound shells screamed shoreward
like steel cataract, and afloat and
ashore signal stations, masked batter
les. and forts were knocked to pieces
and the Spanish had to fee like rats
from sinking ship. They left behind
many dead and dying.
1t was the most destructive lombard
ment yet attempted on the Cuban
coast. In the harbor two Spanish gun
boats without steam up were riddled
and sunk, their crews having fled to
the shore in small boats. They had no
time to offer show of fighting their
guns. The two schooners at anchor
were sunk where they lay, and one
block house caught fire from an explod-
ing shell and famed out like a war
beacon. The Wilmington was not
touched by the few shells flung at it.
The attack was sudden and superbly
effective. The Wilmington in an hour
swept Cardenas bare of defenses as one
would brush crumbs from q table
cloth.
The town Of Cardenas is three miles
back from the gulf entrance to the har-
Dor, so that on-combatants probably
suffered but slightly. OF course, it is
impossible to know the Spanish losses,
because no landing was made, but for
the last two weeks troops have been
massing in front Of Cardenas in antici-
patton Of possible choice of this
point for an invasion as the base of
supplies by the American forces. Hun
dreds Of men were working on earth
works and block houses overlooking
the harbor, and masked batteries
were being planted, one of which sur
rrised and made sad havoc on the tor
pedo boat Winslow. This death trap
was located by the Wilmington and
men and guns were blown high into
the air.
It was terrific punishment at close
range, this fierce onslaught Of the Will
mington, and it was the first real DEM
onstration against the Cardenas Span
fish, who had become Indifferent to
American warships that were always
lowering outside, while only smaller
torpedo boats had opened fire and dash
ed menacingly shoreward 1t was an
other matter, however, when the Will

with the killing of Nancy Sykes and
the death of crazy Fagin. The act,

"a play out of which Oliver could

as presented by the Mckee Rankin

from the scene In a somewhat mys-
FERROUS manner, and Fagin dies from
fright instead OF on the scaffold. In
the original version the strongest
scene is where Bill Sykes, after the
murder OF Nancy, meets his com

by them for his cruelty, and finally
is seen on the top of a roof fleeing
from justice and surrounded on al

The Whitney Case.

The Honolulu INDEPENDENT makes
rather harsh comment on Sheriff
Andrews for asking Captain Whit
ney why he had carried Chester A.
Doyle from Honolulu to Hilo on his
steamer. The INDEPENDENT is prob
ably not aware OF the facts as occur
ing at this end OF the line. There
is law which requires local steam
ship companies to pay license.
Mr.. Doyle came to Hilo on a steamer
the owners OF which had not COM
piled with the law and consequently
had no right to do local business,
Someone called the attention OF Col
lector Turner to the fact that Mr..
Doyle was passenger and that the
law had been violated. Believing
that Sheriff Andrews would know
why Mr.. Doyle was here, Mr.. Tur-
ner telephoned the sheriff and told
him complaint had been made
against the master of the Centen-
NAL. Captain Whitney was called
into the Office and made his state
ment. Mr.. Doyl' was sent for and
showed that he had been ordered
here by the marshal and the Incl
dent was closed. Sheriff Andrews
did not go beyond his duty.-HaUaii

Maui Notes.

Sickness interiered with the

week. A larceny case was set for
trial before Judge Kaleikau who
was sick. Judge Peter Noa OF Paia
was asked to try the case, but fever
had got the best of that learned
magistrate and confined him to his
bed. Finally an appeal was made
to the venerable Judge Kahoohala-
hala Of Lanai, who is generally to
be found in Lahaina, and whose
annual reports during his IL years
incumbency to the Chief Justice are
marked "No criminal or civil work
in this Court" "Barkis was willing"
and the Judge Immediately set out
for MAIZENA,, where the case was to
be tried. In the meantime the
principal witness for the prosecution
was taken sick, and the services of
Judge Kahoohalahala were not
needed.
