Being in a reminiscent mood yesterday he told the following little story on one of General Joe Sheby's old sol- diers:
 ''You know" said he, "that when the end came there were a number of Shelby's men who refused to surrender, on any terms, and getting together made their way out of the United States over the line into Mexico. They stuck together for some time, being employed by the Mexican Government in taking care of bandits, Indians, revolutionists or any, thing else that needed men who would rather fight than eat. At first they man. aged to do fairly well, but the Indians and bandits, finding that it was a losing game they were playing when these Gringos came to be their opponents, stop ped their deDredations and the occupa- tion of the old troopers, who knew how 10 do little else but fight, was gone. They still hung together, getting poorer and poorer all the time, until at last they broke up into little squads, which again separated into single individuals and each man had to shift for himself.
 "One of these fellows after drifting all over the country for several years, at last brought up poor, friendless and alone, in one of the Spanish-American cities on the Atlantic sea coast. The day after his ar rival he wandered down to the harbor and sat there looking out to sea, wondering how he was going to make his way with out money or friends, among people who were not of his blood habits or creed and to whom the very name America was only mentioned as a curse, when he saw a ship of war entering the bay. He watched her with a languid interest until suddenly puff of smoke issued from one of her ports, as she answered to the sa lute of the fort at the entrance of the Earbor, and with the sound of fife and drum run her colors, in a little ball. to the masthead where the ball was trimmed and the stars and stripes hoated out on the breeze.
 '"The old Confederate stood for mo- ment dumfounded, then, his whole face aflame with passion, he shook his fist at the vessel and said: D. you, you sen arated me from my wife, slaughtered nv son, and after ruining me and despoilinp me of everything I possessed sent me to wander, an outcast among strangers. God how 1 once hated you Then, as his eyes filled with tears. I fought you best I knew how, but that's all over, and nv God but I'm glad to see you once again, T don't know where the old fellow is

HOUSE.

Rep. McCandless introduced reso-
luton asking for $4,000 for fixing and
making a new road from Honolulu to
Nuuanu Pail. To Committee on Inter
nal Improvements.
The Acknowledgement presented an
swers to question propounded by Rep.
Loebenstein, as follows:
The amount expended for vaccine
virus from October list, 1896, to the
same date in 1897, was $3.50.
The item for vaccine virus was not
included in the contract made by the
Board of Health for drugs. For num-
Der of years, a special arrangement
has been in force in regard to the i'm
portation of vaccine virus and it has
been imported under a special agree
ment.
In answer to the questions regarding
the amount of money paid for drugs
and medicines at Oahu prison from
October LIST, 1896, to the same date in
1897, and also if the furnishing of the
items was by tender or contract. A
communication from JailOr Low was
presented This goes to say that
s66O42 was expended during the time
mentioned this being an average Of
$50 per month. The daily populace
for this period was 172 prisoners and
the actual cost per prisoner per day
was a fraction over one cent.
Jailor Low continues: The purchases
were not made by contract, it never
has been the custom here, in fact the
quantities purchased are so small and
varied, that it would be difficult to
figure in advance what was necessary.
The prisoners we have for hospital
stewards are selected for their intelli-
gence for the position, yet we have
none who understand medicine, and
mixtures are not all put up here, II
could not be done without keeping a
larger stock Of drugs on hand, and
this both the prison physician and my
self object to because of its being more
expensive.
The custom is for the prison physici'
an to order the supplies from the drug
