Only a RunOr.

There was a mild excitement on
board the unfortunate steamship City
of Columbia at o'clock last night,
when Capt. Parker and a number of
policemen from the station house
marched down to see that everything
was taut to the wharf and no great
amount of steam on such as would per-
nit the HiIo liner to get away from
the hands of the Republic and escape
the libel suit which is on in the local
court. A rumor had gained circulation
that such an attempt would be made,
but it was found to be groundIess.
There was only sufficient steam up for
the electric lights and other necessary
power on board.

WERE IN THE WAR
Native HaWaiians Good
Soldiers for the Union.
Enlisted First for Naval Service
From New Bedford Some Have
Pension Claims.

While the bravery of the regulars
the volunteers. and the negroes is now
in the thoughts of the people, the brav-
cry Of the native, during the Civil
War, should not be forgotten.
Gen. 5. c. Armstrong. Hawaiian
born, wrote of the natives in these
words, few years ago:
They We're patriotic during The war:
a thousand of them could easily have
been enlisted for the Union army with
out bOunties, had not the law forbid
den their leaving the Islands I found
several of them among the negro regi-
ments Gen. Armstrong then com
manded negro fOrces) During the
bOmbardment of Fort Harrison, north
Of the James river, while commanding
a supporting brigade, I heard my Ha-
Waiian name, Kamauela, called from a
color guard, and looking down saw a
smiling Kanaka, a corporal who had
recognized meas cool as a cucumber
Another turned up as a headquarters
Orderly-hOlding my horse. l read. in
an account of the naval land attack on
Fort Fisher, that among the first sea-
men to volunteer for the deadly work
were two Hawaiian sailors They
we're all good soldiers; like the negro.
they are noble under leadership, often
wonderful in emergencies"
The presence of so many natives in
the Union army is accounted for in
this way; The President had called
for volunteers for the navy in 1862
The sea coast towns and cities quickly
a large number. The native Hawaii
ans for many years had shipped on
the New Bedford whalers, and a native
face was common on the streets of that
city. A considerable number, being
there at the time volunteers were
called for, enlisted, and expected to
serve in the navy.
But in 1862 the enthusiasm for the
war had somewhat diminished and
very many of the regiments at the
front were mere skeletons. The pres
sing need of recruits for these regf-
ments influenced the Government to
detail many of these men, who had
volunteered for naval service, into
army service. In this way many hun
dreds of sailors were distributed among
many regiments. And the native vol
unUe6rS were served IN Cn9 same way.
Among the natives, who so enlisted,
there must have been some who suf-
fered from sickness and wounds. AS
they probably returned to these
Islands, and were ignorant Of the pro-
visions of the beneficent pension laws,
it is possible that there are men now
living who have not received the pen
sions they are entitled to and if they
are dead their claims have passed to
their relatives.

accent, and you hear him as he spoke
before the greatest scientists and
thinkers of his day
He was born in Greenoch, in 1863.
His grandfather was a teacher of ma
thematics and philosophy, and a man
of education for his time. His father
was a builder and owner of ships, who
was not very successful in business.
and who afterward took up the voca-
ton of repairing nautical instruments.
1t is to this latter fact that the young
Watt owed his future career. He
learned his trade in the work shop of
his father as far as the latter was able
to leach II to him
In those days there were no scientific
schools such as we have at the present
time, and all the education a young
man could get in scientific subjects was
to be had only in the shops, All the
trades We're organized into guilds, and
boy had to serve, an apprenticeship
of seven years before he was allowed to
set up for himself. Then, however no
one who had not been through the same
process was allowed to compete with
him This was protection carried to
its ultimate possibility.
Watt spent year, in addition to
what time he was employed with his
father, in the shop of an instrument
maker in Glasgow. He gave his whole
time, and 20 pounds in addition, for the
privilege. When he had learned all he
could learn here, he was not allowed
to practice his trade, because he had
not passed the seven years apprentice
ship of the guild, and he could obtain
position nowhere except at the uniVer-
sity, where he was given a position
and allowed to make and sell instru-
ments there in return for the services
he rendered the instructors and scienti-
fic men. He stayed there from 1856 to
1854.
1t was about this time that the New
comen pumping engine came out, and
gained great favor as a means of help
ing to operate the tin mines of Corn
wall, which were having a hard time
to get along on account of the water
which constantly flooded them. Some
of these mines are now being operated
with the very engines that Watt made
for them in the later years of his car
Ger.
From this point the lecturer went Non
in a more technical manner to describe
the development of Watts ideas. He
covered the ground in a very thorough
manner from the time when steam
boilers were operated with so low pres
sure that the manhole covers We're left
on or off them with equal success in
running, to the period of modern engi-
neering practice.
In addition to the work of the inven-
tor in steam enginery. Professor Guest
detailed the other machinery and de-
vices in the manufacture or which Watt
was concerned, and concluded the lee
ture with a series of photographs
thrown on the screen illustrating the
original and modern factories and
workshops of Watt and his successors
These were personally prepared by
Professor Gust during one of his re-
cent trips to England.

WRIT is ISSUED.
Supreme Court compes Hearing Under
the Dubuque Law

supreme Court compels Hearing Under
the Dubuque Law
The supreme court has finally or
dered writ to issue to compel Judge
Charles A. Dewey of the third district
court of southern Worcester to sum-
mon into court poor debtor against
whom judgment had been obtained
under the Dubuque law, and whom
Judge Dewey declined to summon upon
application made by counsel.
The lawyers of Milford endeavored
to have the provisions of the law en-
forced in that place, but were unable
to do as they desired because Judge
Dewey held that the law did not APP
ply in his case because his court had
no clerk. The writ is a summary
process and there is no appeal from
the judgment Counsel conferred and
the result of the conference was that
they considered the use of the word
clerk as merely descriptive and not
in any sense definitive or limiting and
that as Justice Dewey acted as clerk in
issuing all other warrants and notices
of the court, he had a perfect right to
so act in this case.
Williams & Williams then applied to
Judge Dewey for an order of notice I'M
der the Dubuque law on behalf of Ma
cuen Bros. Coal Co., against some of
their delinquent debtors, and Judge
Dewey declined to issue the order of
notice. An order of notice was then
secured from the supreme court and it
was upon this that the hearing was
had yesterday. The proceeding is of
a friendly nature and is designed pure
ly and simply to have the supreme
court pass upon the question as to
whether the law applies to all courts
where judges act as clerks. If the SUI
preme court decides that it does. then
a new principle will be added to the
Jurisprudence of this state, such courts
will have final jurisdiction in these
cases, 1t is said that there are forty
or fifty cases in Milford alone that will
be brought to the attention of the local
court in case the supreme court decides
in favor of the contention held by the
Messrs Williams.
Judge Dewey presented his side and
gave the reasons which had induced
him to refuse to issue the order of no.
tice.

THE COLLEGE LEAGUE.
Young Republicans Begin the Annual Con-
vention at indianapolis.

indianapolis, Ind, Nov. 1.-THE sew
can Republican College League met
here today, with about 20 college men
in attendance. Inability to secure re-
duced railroad rates, the members
claim, prevented a larger attendance.
The address of welcome was delivered
by Albert j. Beveridge, the attorney of
this city. President Arnold l.. Davis
of Michigan University delivered his
annual address, and other addresses
We're delivered by F. B. Whitney and
l.. Brent Vaughan of Chicago. Judge
II. ID. Jewell of Grand Rapids, who
was to have spoken, was kept away by
sickness, and his paper was read To-
night an informal reception was given
the delegates at the Columbia Club.
Tomorrow the principal business will
be transacted Indications are that
President Arnold l.. Davis, and Score
tary Henry Wierzer of Notre Dame
will be reelected without opposition
Williams College will be elected the
leagues member to the national repub-
lican committee. The league is hopeful
of securing financial aid from the ma
tional committee. The college men are
interested in securing suffrage for col
lege men at the places where they at
tend college, and much information rel
alive to the holding of the courts OF
various states on that point will be sub
mitted tomorrow, and some definite ac-
ton on that line is expected The meme
bers say that ringing resolutions wiia
be adopted tomorrow upholding the ad-
ministration and defending Secretary

THE BOOM
For Searls Is
rem Frosty
DODGE MEN SAY
That the Mayor Has Now
an Easy Thing.

The Searls boom refuses to bulge.
Inc secret meeting to have been held
last night amounted to little or nothing.
The meeting place was changed sew
eral times during the day, and the
Dodge men claim that it finally failed
TO materialize. There was a suspicion
of a political gathering at the Han
cock Club late at night, but men who
are members of the club declared that
there was nothing resembling a Searls
run-together at that place during the
evening
1t was at first intended to hold the
meeting in lawyers office in the
State Mutual building. but this fact
was pretty well known during the late
hours of the afternoon. and as the
meeting was to be secret this place of
meeting was given up.
There was in fact little ENCOURAGE
ment for the Searls men during the
day. The boom doesn't gather much
Roadway and the Dodge men are be-
ginning to claim everything in the city
in the way of ward delegations on the
night of the primaries One of the
more enthusiastic friends of the pres
ent mayor declared as he allowed his
enthusiasm to get the best of his cool
judgment, that ward 2, Mr. Searls'
own ward, would go for Dodge at the
ward caucus.
There has been more or less talk on
the street during the past few days
to the effect that the Walker men We're
to cut Dodge, ON account of his hav-
ing voted for Thayer for congress. But
the friends of the mayor laugh at this
and declare that the mayor was a
straight republican throughout the
state campaign.
The Dodge men are going their
friends, the enemy, one better in the
way of rumors for it was current yes
terday that the only object of the al
legged Searls meeting last night was to
consider the advisability of keeping Mr..
Searls In the field any longer.
While it is barely possible that Mr..
Searls may withdraw before the eau
cuses it is hardly probable that the
anti-Dodge men are to give up the
fight in such an event.
They have started out to beat the
mayor, and unless the men at the
head of the opposition are false to we'll
established regulations as fighters,
they are in the battle to do the mayor
up to the day of the December election,

A MERRIMAC HERO.
osburn w. Delgnan Banqueted by Grant
Club of Des Moines.

Des Moines, Ia, Nov. 1.-THE Grant
Club of this city banquetted Osborn w.
Deignan of the Merrinac crew this
evening. He left Stuart on his return to
the Resolute at Brooklyn today. When
he. arrived here this evening he was
hurried through the crowd to the club
house, where a public reception was
held. After the banquet the feature of
the evening was the introduction of
memorial to congress by John Herriot,
treasurer of the state. The preamble
to this memorial calls attention to the
recognition which the Merrimac crew
has been given, and says that 1t is of
special pride to Iowans that the man
who steered the Merrimac was an Iowa
boy. 1t states that it is Deignan's de-
sire to enter the naval academy at An
napolis, but he is prevented by age re-
quirements. The resolution then asks
congress to pass q special act to per-
nit Deignan to enter the academy.
The resolution was adopted with
cheers. Appropriate speeches were
made. Instead of making a speech,
Deignan produced the boatswain's
whistle he used on the Merrimac, and,
after he had given examples of the sig
nails, presented it to the club. deg
nan left at 9.35 on the Rock Island, an
immense crowd following him to the

MRS. RowE,s 10000 GIFT.

At the meeting of the trustees of
Bates College, which has been called
for December the matter of the al
lowance of the will of the late Mrs
Emily H. c. Rowe. who left $4,000 to
that institution, is to be considered.
The win was contested by nieces and
nephews of the deceased on the ground
that Mrs. Rowe was not OF sound and
disposing mind, and after evidence had
been submitted, the court advised the
parties to the case to come together,
as the court stated that it was salts
fed that there had been undue infiu-
ence. The trustees will consider the
question of reaching an agreement with
the contesting relatives, and what
terms as regards the bequest they may
be willing to make.

AGAINST THE BYLAWS.
Lodge of Perfection Wants New Temple
Built Some Other Way.

Another of the Masonic lodges has
enrolled itself against the bylaws franz
ed sometime since providing for the
erection of a Masonic temple in this
city.
Last evening, at the regular convoca-
ton of the Worcester lodge Of Perfec-
ton. the bylaws were rejected by a
two-thirds vote. There was a large at
tendance. and the question of the adop1
tfon or rejection of the bylaws was the
paramount issue Of the meeting, and
when the matter was put to the body,
it's friends were in small minority.
The Worcester county commandery
was the last body to reject the new by
laws, and the action of the Worcester
Lodge of Perfection last night will
make more obvious than ever the nee
essity of the building fund association
adopting a new set of bylaws alto
gether. The idea prevalent among the
members of the Lodge of Perfection
as among the other Masonic bodies,
was not to kill the plan for the building
Of a Masonic temple, but to built it I'M
der another system.
SThe bylaw in question which met
with opposition last night provided for
each Masonic body to pledge itself for
the payment of a loan of money by
that body to be used in the building of
the temple. The great objection is that
no money should be borrowed, and that
the temple should be paid for by con-
tinuing the subscriptions until the re-
quired amount is secured.
The provision of the bylaw that each
member of a Masonic body should be
assessed 50 a year for the fund was not
relished by the members themselves
although by the terms of the bylaw
the assessment was optional with the
member himself,
The action of the Worcester Lodge of
Perfection clinches the opposition to the
bylaw, and the association which has
the building in charge will now I'M
doubtedly devise new ways and means.
