Senator Schofield's Intrigues.

Although the surreptitious divorce OF
State Senator Schofield was known to the
press OF the county during the campaign
last fall the papers were silent out Of
Difference to Mrs. Schofield, who was con-
sidered the victim Of her shrewd lawyer
husband, conniving prosecuting attor-
ney and lax court, but, in view OF the
development OF the last week, to further
suppress the facts would be dereliction
Of the duty owed by newspaper to the
public.
That Senator Schofeld was engaged to
be married to his stenographer, u highly
respected young lady of Montesano, has
been common rnmor in that city for sew
eral months, and it was generally believed
that the wedding would occur very soon,
so the appearance of Mrs. Schofield num-
Dor two, who arrived at the county seat
on Wednesday of last week from Seattle.
stirred the social placidity OF that city to
it's depths. The lady was formerly Miss
Ella Amidon, an estimable young lady
who was raised in Montesano, and who
bad been in Mr.. Schofeld's Office as stem
ographer for some time, and has been
similarly engaged in Seattle for the past
two years. Hearing Of the polygamous
intentions Of the senator, she came down
to Montesano to Illustrate them and to
save his intended victim.
1t appears that Schofeld and Miss Ami.
don were privately married at Victoria,
in August 1897, which was about as soon
as it could occur after his surreptitions
divorce from wife number one. There
was a stormy interview between the
wronged wife and her intriguing husband
and, for a time it looked as though the
aid of the law would be invoked to
straigten out matters between them, and
it may yet wind up in court of law.
Mrs. schofield returned to Seattle last
Saturday and Mr.. Schotield took the east
bound train on Monday, presumably for
the same place to make an effort to
square himself.
If the true inwardness OF the senator's
matrimonial plans were known it might
throw a side light upon his strange be-
hayior during the late session OF the
legislature.

Iwould have known ne was usher
man, even if the title had not been
part of his name. He smelled it. The
odor of fish was everywhere about the
place. judged Patua to be not more
cleanly than the average Kanaka.
Patua's house was q large one for
Kannakakai. 1t had two rooms; most
Of the houses had one.
Patua himself was a lestheSy, wiz
ened, old man. who might have been
eighty or hundred and eighty years
old He had small. sharp eyes, that
looked straight into you when you
were talking TO him, as il to see if you
were speaking the truth. But when
he was speaking to you, Patua's eyes
looked toward the ground.
Patua was mending a fishing boat
when reached him.
s'How are you to-day, Patua, the
fisherman" 1 said, by way of break
ing the ice.
"0h, 1 am the same every dayF' he
said, bending over his work and pay
ing me little attention.
Some of the natives begin a SEN
tence, or at least preface their remarks,
with "OhI"
"Won't you shake hands with me,
Patua, the fisherman"
The old fellow Strengthened himself
up and gave me i piercing look. Then
his glance sought my hand, which was
holding out in q manner to enable him
to see the ring. A puzzled look came
over his face, but evidently the power
of the ring was not overestimated.
He held out his brown hand, upon the
finger of which was a ring similar to
mine.
1 clasped his hand, taking care that
the rings touched.
A peculiar pricking sensation was
felt in my arm and hand.
II wish to be taken to the island Of
Lanai" ] said.
-night?" he said in reply.
''It is nearly night. 1 will return
at dark"
Yes"
So | left Patua aud went back to the
steamer-landing, where there was q
small eating-house kept by China
man. l ate a supper that drove away
my hunger, even il it did not satisfy
it. The average Chinaman does not
cook to suit tue Caucasian stomach.
Still, he had good bread and cocoa,
and that was something.
A fortunate thought struck me while
l was eating. 1 remembered old
Lowai's words, that if the one-eyed
guide was not at the glistening rock
when / arrived, must wait there un.
til he came. Lowai had not said how
long Nimolau might be in making his
appearance. 1 concluded it would be
a wise plan to take some food along,
for if Nimolau, the one-eyed, was very
long absent, would be hungry.
So | had my Chinese host make me
up lunch of sandwiches, and, putting
some bananas in my pocket, Isauntered
back to Patua's big house, smoking a
cigar, good supply of which 1 had
brought with me.

same finger as all others that ] ha !
seen wearing them. felt the sane
pricxing sensation as when 1 had
greeted Patua.
I'll you are the successor OF Iowai,
the priest, you have something beside
the ring to show" said Nimolaa.
"T have"
"Come with me-"

across the basin. l offered him .

as / followed him.
He paused before a perpendiculaz
wall Of rock.
''Bow before Pele, tho most high, -
he said.
1 bowed, wondering what 1 was
bowing to.
Nimolau touched a spot in the wal
and small aperture appeared H
reached in and found a small lam-'.
He lighted this and handed it to IN =.
Then he put his hand in the openin7
of the rock and opened a space wide
enough for me to enter.
ENTER here" he said, "and If you
are true priest aud the successor Of
Lowai, appear before me as one"
Quaking little, but realizing that
there was more danger in disobeli-
ence than in following directions,

was in small room followed out
OF the rock. 1t was empty save for
an old stool, q crushed mirror and a
water bottle. What / had to do could
quite as well have been done outside.
/ quickly arrayed myself in the
strange garb given me by Lowai and
called Nimolau.
This is the place where priests of
the Kammiloukauilimawai begin their
worship of Pele, said Nimo.al.
II thought they worshiped Pcle at
all times.
'In a way. But here they must
make some offering before entering
further toward the presence of Kau-
mai, Pele's priestess.
Tell me what to do, and / will do
it."
"Pele demands an offering from
that which pleases you best. If you
love money, Pele demands money. If
you love tobacco, Pele demands that.
If you love good wine, Pele demands
an offering of wine.

CHAPTER XVIII.

The night was calm and beautiful.
The air was comfortably cool. The
atmosphere Of this climate is usually
clear, and l have never seen it more
markedly clear than on this night.
The starry heavens above us were
resplendent. Under the great spark
ling dome the world seemed full of
weird romance and fanciful theories.
Nothing seemed real to me, so vivid
an impression had been made upon
me by the strange situation into which
| had been led by Lowai's story. Yet
the obedience of Patua, the fisherman.
to the mystic ring was real enough, for
in the gathering darkness he had been
silently making preparations to convey
me acrcIs Pailolo Strait to the island
of Lanai.
l stood watching him as, with the
assistance of brawny youth, perhaps
his son, he pushed a boat into the
water and placed in it oars, water
jar and other necessaries for a long
row.
81 am ready" he said, beckoning
ioi me 10 step INTO the DOat.
The island of Lanai could not be
seen from the shores Of Molokai. vet
Patua needed no chart TO enable him to
find his way thither.
He took the oars in his muscular
hands aud sent the boat through the
water at rapid rate, the waves bub-
bling and sputtering under the bows
as she sped on.
L sat silently in tho stern, thinking.
/ wondered what would be the out
come of this adventure. And l felt
dissatisfied with myself for having
kept the secret to myself. Why had
not told President Dole the whole
story? He, surely, would not have
betrayed me to an enemy, and in case
j did not return within a reasonable
time he would set out a search for NE.
But searching-parties were not of
much account in Hawaii. Those who
were not initiated into the mysteries
of the secret orders and fanatical rites
of the place were not shrewd enough
to-discover them. And those who did
know all about them were quite shrewd
enough to mislead those who were
searching and render their efforts use-
less.
After Patua had piled his oars for a
few hours, / learned how he was en-
abled to go from Molokai to Lanai
without chart. Rowing straight in
direction he knew to be from one to
the other, before he was out of sight
of Molokai the rocky eminencss of
Lanai could be seen.
The distance was considerable, vet
Patua seemed never to feel fatigue.
His muscles were like iron. He
chewod tobacco while he rowed and
squinted at me as if trying to read
some Of my thoughts. 1t was, no
doubt, an unusual thing 10 see an
American in possession OF the mystic
ring of the Observation-Disclosures; but
Patua did not give any evidence of
surprise. Yet, instinctively, 1 knew
the fellow was on the lookout for
tEeschery, and any sign Of enmity to-

Did Not Appear in Court.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. Is. - Ruby
Raymond, the woman held for procur
ing, and whose bonds were ordered for
feited yesterday by Judge Mogan, app
peared in court to-day, and told aaqueer
story to explain her non-appearance in
court yesterday.
She said that one Madden, a team
ster of this city. had made arrange
ments with an attorney named Mack to
square her case for $3.50, and she had
seen Madden pay over to Mack $50 of
the money for the purpose, Madden
taking a receipt. Mack was to be the
associate of a San Jose attorney named
O'Neal Yesterday Madden called
upon her at her rooms and told her to
leave the State, as she was about to be
arrested and would be sentenced to II
years Imprisonment if the police sue
ceeded in locating her. She took the
train for San Leandro. and remained
there all night. On reading the papers
to-day she learned that her bonds had,
been ordered forfeited. and resolved to
give herself up.
She was arrested. 1t is probable that
action will be instituted against Mad

what part, if any, the latter took in the
affair, cannot be learned
