and grant, as well, demand that had
long been made by the opium ring,
which would largely increase her own
revenue, but which would forever de-
stroy all progress in morality and in
dividual liberty.
The Church Party were even now
wavering in their allegiance and al
most ready to break with the govern
ment. The Liberals were aghast at
the bold and audacious position taken
by the queen, and even her most vio-
lent supporters could not face the ar
guments Of Dole and others against
the preposterous scheme.
All this learned from Uncle Tom
as we sat mournfuIly at The Corals,
after Winnie had disappeared.
1T is easy to understand" said my
uncle, ''how the pesky niggers believe
they will destroy all opposition to the
queen by resorting to violence and
crime. But mark me, Tom, my boy,
if harm comes Of this-ifa hair of our
Winnie's head is hurt-I'll have it
out of the old she-devil il il takes my
last dollar and my life as we'll. Now
you thoroughly appreciate the situa-
tion. Things are hot here now The
strain is too great. Something's got
to happen pretty soon"
''Do you know enough of the habits
of the natives to guess where they
have taken Winnie?"
''There readozen things they might
do. They are full of willy deceits and
unholy idolatry, and all the heather.
ish things you could imagine. Mo,
there's no telling what they might do.
We must keep on looking, that's all,
until we find her."
While we were speaking Gordon
came in, hot, weary and thoroughly
ugly.
"What hope? What have you
learned?" asked him eagerly.
Nothing" he replied savagely,
banging table with his sword. "I'd
like to take the whole cussed lot Of
the rascals into ten-acre field and
shoot them. We have looked every
where that was possible. Not trace
can be found. And the worst of it lie
the natives all seem to enjoy the thing.
1t is sort of triumph for the queens
party. But it won't be triumph
long. Til find Winnie if it takes not
only my life, but everybody's."
grasped his hand.
''You are indeed friend, Gordon.
We will work together. We must find
her. We will hunt down the mysteri-
ous fiends who abducted her, and slay
them"
THAT we will," he said, grimly,
tapping his sword. 81 must go to the
palace now. Don't be surprised if
you hear that I have thrown the queen
out Of the window"

II was even possible for them in places
to kiss ald rub noses through the
parted bamboo pickets.
OF course, the weIl-regulated human
heart revolts against all cruelty, but it
was plain, so my uncle held, that this
privilege practically discounted all the
good to be gained by the later isolation
Of the lepers on Molokai. Efforts had
been made to bring about proper legis.
lation on the matter, but proper legis
lation was out of the question with
Liliuokalani m the throne.
"Here we are" said Uncle Tom, as
the carriage stopped before a low build
ing near the American Legation.
The American League was composed
of Liberals from both wings. II had
been in existence a great many years,
and had been allowed to meet in a
large hall over the United States
Legation. When we entered the hall
was nearly full, and many of the peo.
pie knew were in attendance. The
American League had, as a reason for
its existence, the interests Of the en-
tire country at heart. OF course, its
members being Americans, their first
thoughts were for Americans; but the
promulgation and support of measures
for the benefit Of Hawaii was the OBJ
iect Of the League.
Mr.. Dole was there and so were
Mr.. Seacamp and Doctor Warren of
the Reception Hospital. who sat near
the front.
Shortly after we arrived, the meet
ing was called to order.
The chairman, rising, addressed the
League:
my friends and fellow Americans"
he said. at is With the deepest re-
gret that / state de object Of this
meeting. We have long been ac-
quainted with the unsatisfactory and
improper condition of legislative
matters, and have struggled on for
years in Il vain hope that our queen
would soon listen to reason, and give
us wise and considerate Government.
But she has turned a deaf ear to the
eounsels of those who are most vitality
interested in Hawaii and its future,
and has listened instead to the inter
lopers and adventurers who now in
fuence her in her extravaganza, but
who do not supply the revenues to
support the same. l have but one
duty to perform, aud that is to tell
you that the hideous lottery act is
passed, and the opium act will become a
law in few days. The old constitu-
tion viii be done away with, and a
new one substituted. Under the new
constitution, the crown has the sole
privilege to appointments. Our cleo
tive franchises are destroyed. Our
lands again revert to the crown, with
or without compensation, as the queen
chooses. Thus, after paying the es-
tablished price for our land, we are to
have it taken from us by force. This
is the situation as it now stands. Mr..
Seldom has prepared a paper on the
growth OF American industries in these
islands, which he will present before
the league takes any action on the
situation"

CHAPTER VI.

Ny uncle and 1 lived with heavy
hearts. Together with { ordon, Dole,
Seacamp, and with the assistance OF
Minister Stevens, who was anxions
and eager in his efforts, we continued
the search for Winnie, but without
success. In some mysterious way she
had been spirited away without leav-
ing trace. We found her Mexican
pony on the side Of a mountain, but it
had evidently been straying ever since
the horrible night that Winnie was
taken from its saddle. And we found
the horse Malliauki had ridden. But
that was all. Day after day search
ing parties went out, but returned at
night, crestfallen and unsuccessful.
"Tom" said my uncle one day,
''the American League has a meeting
tonight. 1 promised Dole 1 would
be there. Thkpgs are growing warmer.
Something must be done soon. We
had better CO."

can assist in oyerturning the accursed
conditions existing here, let us do it.
If the power Of the queens party coulo
be broken, l am sure we could find
Winnie-if she is alive"
81 do not think she is dead" My
uncle's voice was broken as he spoke.
"These devils have way of keeping
their victims long time. Few that
have known to be taken ever came
back. But this sort of thing was com
mon years ago. And while we never
could learn what was done or what the
motive might be, there was always
something horrible about the fearful
condition of those who returned As
1 say, they were few. / knew Of two
only in my life here. One was a man
who was shot by an unknown ASSASSIN
two days after he reappeared, and the
other, woman, became insane.

eyes"
The Reception Hospital was an in
stitution that filed me with sort oi
horror. 1t was used for one purpose
only, SO Uncle Tom told me, on the
way to the League meeting. When
ever symptoms of leprosy, the curse OF
Hawaii, were seen in any person, great
or small, native or foreign, living on
Oahu, that person was forthwith hustled
to the Reception Hospital, where he
was held under the care of Doctor
Warren until the arrival of the "leper
schooner" that was to take him to the
leper settlement on Molokai, an island
to the southeast of Oahu. This schooner
made the trip across Kaiwi Strait once
in every two weeks.
While held in the Reception Hospi-
tai, the lepers were understood to be
isolated from all mankind, but owing
to criminal neglect on the part OF the
government. this rule could not be en-
forced by Doctor Warren. The hos

Quaker Doctor Fights Disease
with the Proper Remedies and
Conquers 1t.
ssfNY
The time of the year Is upon us when
persons whose lungs and bronchial organs
are in a diseased condition win have to
battle with the changeable conditions of the
weather. Pneumonia. bronchitis. pulmon-
airy consumption, and all diseases of a
like nature win be prevafent for the next
six months. and wise are they who will
Immediately seek the proper means 20
place themselves in proper condition to
battle against and overcome the diseases
10 which they will be subject
The Quaker Doctor has ma1e a repula-
ton in curing diseases of the chest and
lungs that has never been attained by any
other physician and The hundreds upon
hundreds of testimonials that have been
voluntarily sent to him is the very best
evidence that this reputation has been
honestly won by means of skilful treat
ment of the diseases that he promises to
cure. Bronchitis, asthma, influenza, con-
sumption, and all diseases of the throat
chest and lungs are treated by the Quaker
Doctofsby methods different from those
used by any other physician, and that are
the results of years of study among thou
sands such cases. The Quaker's treatment
does not consist of loading the stomach
with nauseating and disturbing drugs and
medicines that in many cases have no eff
fSsstsfthtever upon the disease for which
tfp9SttAfe administered. and only result in
impalring digestion and in many instances
causing diseases of the stomach and liver.
The diseases that al Jack the chest, lungs
and bronchial tubes are reached and con-
trolled by the Quaker Doctor by means
of certain soothing, but powerful balms
and sprays that are gently and pleasantly
sprayed into the bronchial tubes and then
to The lungs. These preparations are made
from certain plants that are a secret of
the Quakers and the powers of which have
not yet been discovered by the medical
fraternity.
The crowds who are daily taking ad-
vantage of the Quakers treatment is on
the increase and the many cures that are
credited to his skin and remarkable RENE
dies are bringing to his Office people from
all sections of The country.
IT would appear from this that those
who have already tried his powers over
disease have been so fully convinced that
what he claimed TO do was no more than
what he did have thoroughly advertised
him among their friends, and that he Is
reaping the reward that he so well de-
serves for the good he has done for the
sick people of this city.

prom the Phlladelphia Record.


From the Philadelphia Record.
Trenton, N. j., Nov. 16.-while number
OF telephone linemen were working at the
top of a pole on State street, the main
thoroughfare in the city, this forenoon,
one of Them heard something whistle by
his ear, and he saw a small, glittering OBJ
Ject fall I'm the street a few rods away.
While wondering whether il was a lyd-
dite or q spent bullet from the Transvaal.
he was stung In the back of the head by
a hard substance, and the next instant
something struck the pole near his face
Two other dinemen working below him
had had the same experience, and, look
ing down, they saw a boy in lxnickerboclx-
ers dancing around the sidewalk In great
glee. stopping now and then TO pull a
handful Of silver quarters and half-dodlars
from his pocket and shower them at the
men overhead
The linemen caught some of the money
as it whlstfed up to them, but they sud-
denly concluded to get nearer the source
OF the silver geyser, and they began to
descend. The hoy kept up the lombard
mnt until the men were within a few feet
of the ground, then he scurried off down
the street with the linemen In full chase.
The boy was fleet runner, and man
aged 10 elude his pursuers.
The linemen and pedestrians who had
witnessed the strange bombardment gath
cred up about SIS, and some of the pieces
dropped into the canal near which the
linemen were working II Is estimated that
the boy threw away $40.

were showered with five and ten-dollar
bills few months ago that were blown
by the wind from the third-story window
OF an arlstocratic residence on West State

SAVANNAH FLYERS AT HOME.
DGyIe's String VIII Lay on IA Week
for the Brunswick Events.

for the Brunswick Events.
The Savannah stable of horses will re
turn this morning, after a successful trip
over the Southeastern circuit The horses
in the string include Adela, Slont's Bltters,
Robert West and the guideless PAGER Ros-
CO. Manager A. P. Doyle is well satisfied
with the result of the campaign and will
lay off for a week before shipping the sta

The little pacing mare Adela proved her.
self thorough race mare in the events at
Jacksonville In the 2:35 pace and trot
there were eight good ones against her,
and she captured the race, after a battle
of four hard heats
Robert West held his own in all OF the
fast classes, and won a piece of the money
in every race in which he started.
The PAGER Rosco was a prime favorite
with the crowds every day of the meet,
and his exhibition was regarded as the
star attraction. Whenever the PAGER APP
peared on the track ii was the signal for
an enthusiastic reception. The Jackson
vile papers, in abiding to the PAGERS per-
Torrance, speaks of the horse as a won
der, indeed" and his exhibition as mar
velous." There are great many guides
less PAGERS on the turf, but few of them
possess the racing qualities of Rosco. From
the time the word Is given, Rosco races
Just the same, as if there was a driver
behind him, and he never ceases until he
finishes the mile. In Jacksonville last Fri
day. when Rosco gave his exhibition there
were fully 5000 spectators present, and
when the horse finished his mile in 2:17N
going part of the distance at a 21O clip
the crowd stood up and cheered the horse
for several minutes. Rosco acknowledged
the compliment by bowling his head to the
crowd, which called for another storm of
applause.
Mr.. Doyle certainly has a splendid race
attraction in Rosco.
