arrest, and Mrs. Hall, who was visiting
family living near the wrecked prem

the law sent to arrest him, and finally
took refuge in magazine where five
tons OF giant powder had been stored,
declaring his intention of blowing up
the premises if anybody attempted
that duty. The officers remained in

IT is thought, from certain indica-
tons, that the present season will be
an odd one in the Klondike region,
and that the flow of water in the
rivers that renders them navigable will
soon be over. This premonition is
caused by the absence of snow on the
high lands which usually melts late
in the season.

sends word that if wanted here to
serve with the company he will take
passage for the Islands any time on
the first boat. We are going to have
annexation and that very soon The
speaker came back from the States
certain of this and had received many
confirmatory letters. To the sugges-
ton over there on one occasion that
return to compromise Monarchy
might not be bad he had rep. led for
the Sharpshooters that they would die
first This was applauded.
Senator McCandless observed that
there seemed to be but one sentiment
on this occasion. The deadly strife
of the afternoon had brought more
than rainbows. The samples of Brit
ishers on hand were reminders of the
Englishmen of the early days of the
big Republic. There is keen interest
in all the supporting organizations of
the citizens of Hawaii nei. On anneXa-
ton the Sharpshooters, the First Re
giment and the Citizens Guard are
one. There is ample warrant for serv-
ing notice that in case of any slip an
neXation should be deferred for a
time, the Republic of Hawaii will con-
tinue in business at the same old
stand. Senator McCand,ess then read
extracts from three letters and was in
terrupted at the end of each period
by applause The first was from a
strong business house on the Coast to
heavy firm here: I'VE will repeat
that although the battle RACES hot we

(2) Senator Davis, Chairman of the
committee, claims that we have the
necessary two-thirds vote. There is
no reason whatever to doubt this. The
trouble in China has won votes for
us. 81 An eX-rebel in Northwestern
State has written to Seantor Daniels
and to the chairman of the committee
which placed Mr.. Daniels in his posi-
ton. The answer was that the Sena-
tor would carefully consider and had
not yet entirely made up his mind in
the premises. He is placed in the I'M
certain list and may yet vote for an
neXation or else refrain from offering
stubborn resistance to the treaty.
Representative Winston stated that
while in Washington he had interview |
ed Senator Daniels, who had offered |
the consolation that in any event Pre-
Sident Mckinley was set upon an
nexation and had the strength to carry |
the treaty through.
After a few words from Captain |
Dodge the good nights were said, all |

TWO CURIOUS MINERALS.

A Berlin dispatch to the London
Standard says that M. Czernik, the
well-known Russian chemist, has ex-
amined two minerals from the Cauca-
sus, with very noteworthy results. One
of them is kind of coal, the ashes of
which contain considerable quantity
of the new element hellum, along with
several rare and precious earths used
in the manufacture of incandescent
mantels. The other is called cerite,
and consists mainly of the new element
argon. The most remarkable thing is
that these two new elements have
never before been found in minerals
in a pure state, but only in chemical
combination with other elements.

Ger Rosenau has received authority
from the department at Washington
to refuse pratique to vessels which
cross the quarantine line or allow the
pilot or anyone else to go ashore be-
fore the Quarantine Officer has come
aboard. The question arose in the case
of the schooner Andrew Welch, which
arrived here about two weeks and
crossed the line and allowed the pilot
to go ashore before DR.. Rosenau came
aboard. Proceedings were contemplate
ed against the vesse, for this violation
of quarantine regulations, but on in
structions from the Treasury Depart
ment they will not be pressed, as it
is doubtful whether fine or forfeiture
could be imposed. However, the other
methods of enforcing the regulations
are clearly within the quarantine re-
gulations, and pratique will hereafter
be denied when these are violated
