ORATORIO EVENING.
Onward March OF HOnoluIu's Fine
OrcheStra

The Amateur Orchestra had a Splen-
did rehearsal last evening in the Y. M.
c. A. hall, there being quite a large at
tendance Two new members have
Joined the past week and three others
have signified their intention of belong
ing to the organization. Next Thurs
day evening the orchestra will play at
the residence of Minister and Mrs.
Cooper, Manca valley. 1t will be full
moon and the members will go out and
return in a large four horse bus. They
are looking forward to a very pleasant
evening. Wray Taylor, leader of the
orchestra, informs an Advertiser rep
resentative that it is his intention in
the middle of March, perhaps little
sooner, to give an Oratorio evening in
the Kaumakapili church. Selections
will be given from the Messiah" the
"Creation.' st Paul" and elijah"
The Amateur Orchestra will be aug
mented and with the large organ will
render those two fine chOruses, the
|"Hallelujah Chorus from the Mes
siah, and the Heavens Are Telling,
from the Creation. They will also give
lMascagni's Intermezzo from CavaIlerla
Rusticana Rehearsals are to commence
at once and Mr. Taylor believes that
the orchestra will render a good &C
count of itself in Oratorio music. 1t
is an intense pleasure TO him to be con-
nected with such an organization, and
the interest the members take in 1T is
most gratifying. Solo and chorus selec-
tions will also be given but the vocal
lists who will take part will be an
nounced later, as the preliminary ar
arrangements have as yet not been com
lplated.

No Laughter for NeEly-WGd
Mate GrifithS.
STAR OF RUSSIA OFFICER
Made the Captains Daughter His
Wife-The Master Left With
the Young Wife.

TACOMA. Wash, Jan. 2.-Griffith
ship Star Of Russia, and Jessie Roberts,
the daughter of the vessels master,
were married aboard the ship here on
December 23d, during the captains alb
turn Mate Griffiths broke the news to
him. The captain said little, but went
to his daughters cabin and ordered her
to pack her trunks. Mrs. Griff1ths COM
piled. That night the captain and his
daughter took the train for San Fran
CISCO
Capt. Heathfield took command of
the Star of Russia, which sailed a few
days later for Honolulu, carrying coal,
with First officer Griffiths aboard.
Griffiths is a young Scotchman OF de-
| termination and his friends declare
| he will yet enjoy the love and COM
partnership of his bride of an hour.
| Capt Roberts wife died shortly before
the Star of Russia sailed from Antwerp
for San Francisco last May.
This decided him to take his mother
less daughter along on the voyage.
During the voyage Mate Griffiths and
the young woman were much together.
An attachment followed, which result
ed in an engagement. Capt. Roberts
was informed of their plighted troth,
but declared that no man should take
| his twenty-year-old daughter from
him.
| After discharging at San Francisco
the Star of Russia came here. Again
Capt Roberts consent to the young
couples wedding was requested and re-
fused. Just before the ship was to sail
Griffiths proposed a secret marriage.
Miss Roberts agreed and minister
was secured to marry them during the
captains absence.
| Griffiths is 40 years old. Capt. Rob-
erts comes from an aristocratic family
| in Scotland and he objected primarily
TO his daughter marrying seafaring
man. He has since settled his affairs
| in San Francisco with Moore & Co.,
the ships new owners, and returned 10
England with his daughter and little
son.
The Star of Russia sailed from Ia
coma December 26th for Honolulu and
like the other Star ships is seeking

DIsCREDITs a DEWEY INTERVIEW
German Emperor Talks of Relations
With United States

according to the BerliEer Tageblatt EN-
peror William received Representative
George Edmund Foss Of Illinois and United
states Naval Attache Beehler on board the
imperial yacht Hohenzollern last. Wednes-
day at kiel, granting them an audience of
three-quarters OF an hour.
His majesty began the conversation Inv
expressing the belief that Admiral Dewey
had not used the words attributed to him
suggesting the possibility of war be-
tween the United States and Germany. MIR.
Foss replied that he had just come from
Trieste, where he had had long talks with
Admiral Dewey, who had shown no hostil-
ity toward Germany
Inc emperor then declared his conviction
mat German-American relations would al
ways remain friendly. Germans in Amer
lea, he said, would take good care that no
aggressive or hostile policy should be pur-
sued toward Germany.
Formerly it was the strong German
army that chiefly preserved the peace of
Europe, said the emperor, ':but the fu-
ture of nations lies on the ocean The in
crease OF the German fleet involves no
threat TO any other power, for the stronger
q nation Is al sea the more others will hesi-
tate to- begin hostilities. The increase of
navies. therefore, is in reality the best
peace conference
The Tageblatt does not vouch for the
verbal accuracy Of the foregoing, but as
sertS that it is faithful reproduction of
the git of the emperor's remarks.

COLUMBIA OWNS AGAIN.
Defeats the Defender Bs, Over Tyventy-
Two linnies.

The run of the New J5orl, Yacht cIuh
cruise from Gardinec-s bax to Newnort yes
terday, a distance OF forty-tbree miles was
full of interestin9 brgshes. While the
yachts ran the last half of the forty-three
miles in constantly increasing southwest
breeze, the first half of the day was 1uky.
1t is no DISBURSEMENT to Columbia TO
say that her defeat Of thenDefender by over
% minutes was due imore.to Door judgment
and bad luck of the Defender boat which
left her in a soft spot, than to actual su-
periority. Still the new boat showed her
self very able in broad reach with q con-
stantly increasing breeze, and it is not too
much to say that she made an average of
fully thirteen knots in the run alongshore
from Watch Hill to Point Judith. so rapidly
dropping the Defender that when she pybed
round the whistling buoy off Point Judith
her rival was huh down to the westward
over five miles astern. On the run up from
Point Judith dead before the wind Column
bia gained a minute or two more so that
at the finish the old Defender had received
the worst beating in her history.
There was never a moment during the
day when there was not wind enough to fill
the sails while the last fifteen miles were
sailed in a grand breeze from the southeast
that gave each boat great move A huge
fleet of steam yachts watched the sailing
craft start and accompanied them over
most of the course. and all Newport saw the
defender of 1893, Vfgiant, leading the fleet
over the line after warm contest of ff-
teen miles with the schooner Colonia At
the finish there was % seconds between the
boats, but Vigiiant started 6 minutes
ahead the Colonia beat her easily on the
run, although, of course, the boats sailed
in different classes.
The race was a grand one from 2:45
o'clock on. At that time Defender took in
her spinnaker, Columbia soon following
suit. Away ahead. more than five miles N
the lead We're Nigilant and Colonia. The
sloop and schooner were making the hottest
fight of their career for the honor of fin
ishing first. For several miles they sailed
close together beam to beam. Both round
ed the whistling buoy off Point Judith at
1884, leading the fleet. Ariel came next, at
3:43. Columbia swept grandly around the
buoy at 3:4S.30 and NaVahoe at the same
time. Columbia could not overhaul and
pass Vigilant in the seven miles run to the
finish. Even Colonia was unable to do 1t.
The latter yacht gybed to starboard off
Narragansett and dropped aStern, just as
they both passed the Old cup defender Vol
unteer which with Hank Gaf at the
wheel, had come out to meet the fleet
Smartly the crew of Vigilant took in her
spinnaker just before reaching the light
ship. Then they gybed her and like an ar
row she shot around Colonias bow. She
crossed the finish line just 50 seconds ahead
of the schooner and finished first OF the
fleet. Columbia swept across the finish
line at 4:24.20 taking in her spinnaker
few seconds before reaching it. According
to the official figures the Columbia wins by

SAYS THE NEGRO MUST GO,
Declaration of President of the Geor.
Sia Agricultural Society,

Pope Brown, president of the Georgia
Agricultural Society, in calling that body
to order in Quitman, Ga, yesterday, de-
clared with emphasis that the time has
come when the negro and white man must
part He asked the society to consider the
race question seriously as one of the great
est which confronts the southern farmer.
and declared his own opinion in favor of
colonization Of the negro race. His speech
was loudly applauded by the several hun
dred farmers present.
The terrible crimes of negroes" Mr.
Brown said, force us to consider the oues-
ton OF dispensing with negro labor. The
question is one between the white men of
the south and the negroes. Let US alone
ana there Will be no trouble. The south
matters of the north are at the bottom al
the trouble. We need not flatter ourselves
mat these south haterS are few in number
mere are many of them. Mr. Thurber
rendered US service by telling US what
the north thinks of us. 1t is high time we
should let the north alone. Quit running
after those people; quit toadying to them
The negro leaders say this is not their
nome, and they are talking of colonization
schemes. l do not know whether these are
practical or not, but l believe it is to the
interest of the people of the south to aid
and abet the negroes in the effort to leave
US. The time has come for the parting of
the white man and negro

GEORGE f. BELL ACQUITTED.
Man Who Declared He Stole the Car
rama Letter.

dispatch from Montreal Quebec yes
terday says: George +. Bell, who recently
announced that it was he who had stolen
from the room of Lieutenant Carranza the
famous letter TO a kinsman in Madrid, was
today acquitted of the charge. Although il
had been generally understood that the let
ter was obtained by Ralph Redfern,
United States secret service agent Bell
swore during his trial that he had taken
at the time.
kellert took the stand today and said:
Until the publication of Bells story
never saw the man in my life" With an
oath Bell sprang al kellert, and. striking
him with his cIenched fist on the temple,
yelled, You're a liari" kelert sprang for
ward. pulling his revolver, but Magistrate
Lafontaine grabbed Kellert, while others
hello Bell
Bell was then taken before Judge Cho-
quet on a charge of assault. Kellert de-
clared that if Bell ever came toward him in
the street in threatening attitude he would
instantly shoot to kill him. The Judge gave
Bell lecture. fined him SO and bound him
over in $3.50 TO keep the peace.
If it could have been proved that Bell
stole the letter. and that from it an in
eliminating letter was forged. as he charges,
Carranza would possibly have suit against
the Canadian government for wrongfully
expelling him Bell. although apparently
