HAWAIIAN RELIEF SOCIETY.
Elects Officers and Plans for Luau in
February.

At the meeting of the Hawaiian Re-
lief Society, held at the residence of
MRS. s. {. Allen this morning, the fol-
lowing were elected officers for the en-
suing year: Mrs. S. c. Allen, presi-
dent; Mrs. James Campbell and Mrs.
Robert Levers, vice presidents; Mrs.
George G. Beckley, secretary; Mrs.
John F. Bowler, treasurer.
The treasurers report showed that
the funds of the society were limited,
and there was discussion on methods
OF increasing the amount on hand. 1t
was practically decided to give an elab-
crate public luau on February 22nd.
provided that day is observed as a ma
tlonal holiday. Attention was called to
the fact that two excursion steamers
will arrive here about that time, which
would probably bring patronage of the
curio stands

SHOOTING UP TO 2 p. NJ. AT THE
KAKAAKO BUTTS.
Low Scores the General Rule-Forty
four is High-Bad Wind-Camp Fire
Tonight.

The holiday has been observed in
government circles today. All offices,
including the courts, have remained
closed. The schools have also taken
day off
In town there was little observance
of the day. The banks closed at noon.
King Brothers and a few other mar
chants kept a sort of half holiday, but
most of the doors kept wide open. One
reason for this was the decision of the
steamship companies to have their ves-
sells leave on schedule. This brought in
the shipping business and made the
water front active
The city has been quite orderly
There has been little drinking and no
carousing. No luaus of consequence
have taken place.
The principal holiday event has been
the shooting at Kakaako butts. DR..
A. c. Wall was in charge there this af-
ternoon. This afternoon he is being as
sisted by Fred b. Damon. Following
are the scores thus far made in the va

M THIEVES CAUGHT NOT FAVOR THE ROAD HAWAII GOOD WUHM nth HONOLULU FIGURE ON BIG DAMAGES
POLICE CAPTURE TERRORs OF
THE BEACH.
Burglary of Harry Lewis Bath House
Leads to the Arrest of the Young
Miscreants.

There has been another robbery in
bath houses at Waikiki. This time,
however, the offenders have been
caught and a strong clew to the re-
mainder of the buglarious acts has
been found. BY tomorrow there will be
other arrests.
1t was Sunday afternoon that the last
robbery took place. Fred Lewis, Frank
Mcintyre, a soldier named Simpson,
and others, were in bathing at Harry
Lewis place. When they came out of
the water Simpson complained of hav-
ing lost a bunch of keys. Later he
found that a sealskin card case, con-
tanning a diamond ring, a seal ring,
four fine diamond studs and about S25
in gold and silver was missing.
Deputy Marshal Chillingworth was
notified and set to work Immediately
on the case. Information CLEANED
from natives at the beach led to the
arrest Of Mahi and Laupaki, two boys
residing in the neighborhood Upon
being cross questioned they admitted
having stolen the property and offered
to return as much of 1t as possible.
The case containing the diamond rings
was dug up out of the sand along the
beach. The bunch of keys had been ta-
ken about four miles away and buried
Most of the money had been spent 70,
soda water, cigarettes, buttons, etc.
The boys will be brought before
Judge Wilcox in the police court to-
morrow morning. In the meantime
Deputy Marshal Chillingworth has
gathered from them a story that thor
oughly unravels the mystery of other
Waikiki burglaries. They state that
they with others, whom they name en-
tered Theo. H. Davies house at the
beach on three consecutive nights and
greatly frightened the occupants. That
they burglarized the Kamehameha
building out there two weeks ago, TAX
ing canned goods, bathing suits, etc.
Numerous petty burglaries have ta-
ken place recently at the beach, and il
has become necessary for people out
there to be most particular about the1l
property. The arrest of the leaders OF
the gang, with the assurance that the
other miscreants will soon be in dur.
ance, is source of relief to Waikiki
residents.

BANKER FINDS PHILADELPHIA
TOO COLD.
Hon. p. c. Jones has Lost His Affec-
tion for the Frozen North-Balmy
Honolulu is Better.

Hon. p. c. Jones and wife will return
to Honolulu in the early summer to
remain permanently. Hawaii is good
enough for me-" says Mr.. Jones, in eX-
PLANTATION. "One does not know how to
appreciate the climate and natural ad-
vantages until he has experienced the
rigors of the seasons in the north"
Mr., Jones arrived on the China to at
tend the annual meeting of Brewer &
Co, which will take place on February
1st. He will leave by the Moana on
the afternoon of the same day to re-
turn.
The Jones left here on October 18th
for Philadelphia. Immediately after
reaching there they started house keep
ing. Both of their daughters have been
with them in the Quaker City. Miss
Alice is attending a preparatory school
there.
During my entire stay there" added
Mr.. Jones, II have done nothing but
try to keep warm. 1t was not until
within two days of Honolulu that | felt
thoroughly thawed out l have not
stirred around any and have seen
nothing. This has been a remarkable
trip for me in that particular. Usually
/ try t see a great deal, but this time
it has been too cold.
I'VE have a comfortable home in
Philadelphia where we keep the latch
string ever on the outside TO Hawaiian
people. Mrs Jones likes Philadelphia
and is enjoying excellent health. In
fact her health was perhaps never bet
ter. The cold climate seems to agree
with her much better than with me-"
Miss Jones Will accompany her pa
rents to Honolulu next summer. In
the autumn she will enter Smiths col
lege for course of four years.

JURY DECLARES AGAINST NEW
wAIALAE ROUTE.
A Scheme That Would Cost More Than
Improvement Would Probably be
Worth.

The scheme for a new road from Tel
egraph hill around mauka to Paul Is
enberg's gate, will be abandoned by
the government. 1t is hard to under
stand in the light of the investigation
by the road jury, just who wanted this
road or the idea for it's construction.
Bruce Cartwright and Cecil Brown own
the land through which it would pass,
and they were never anxious for it..
Paul Isenberg is the man to be direct
ly affected, and he does not want the
road.
The recommendation that a jury be
appointed to investigate the route came
from the Interior office. 1t is under
stood that President Dole introduced
the recommendation there. Chief Jus
tice Judd ordered the jury and Marshal
Brown conducted the investigation.
On the ground it was found that it
was proposed to remove the present
road in order, apparently, to secure a
lighter grade. The new route would
carry a grade of five, four and about
three and half per cent. The old
road carries eight and more in certain
places. To reduce the grade of the
present road to six per cent would cost
$1,000. To build the new road as pro-
posed would cost about $4,000 with
$1,000 more for removing the rock fence
to it.
When the jury was on the road Pres
ident Dole addressed the party. He
said the improvement was a mark of
progress, that it would facilitate pub
lie travel and traffic and he hoped the
| change would be made. After question
ing all parties concerned in the change
the jury returned the following verdict
unanimously signed
THE undersigned a road jury sum
| moned to report on the proposed i'm
provement to the Waialae road, report
as follows That we do not approve of
| the proposed change in the course of
! the road and are in favor of repairing
| the present road as intended by the
| Legislature, and according to the plans
submitted to us, viz reducing the road
from the hill to Isenberg's windmill to
six per cent grade, at an estimated
| expenditure of $1,000, and spending the
balance of the appropriation in extend
| ing the road toward Koko Head"
The verdict was signed by l.. c. Alb
les as chairman, S. b. Rose, George
Manson, John Lucas, F. w. McChes-
/ new.

CLAIMS OF THE OWNERS OF THE
CITY OF COLUMBIA.
All Based on the Hypothesis That the
Last Chinese Habeas Corpus Decision
is Adhered To.

The late owners of the City of Co
lumbia are watching with intense in
terest the outcome of the Chinese ha-
beaS corpus cases now before the Su-
preme court. If the decision of the
court in the last case, the one i'm which
Judge Perry wrote the opinion, is
adhered to, they count that they Will
have a case for damages against the
government of Hawaii. Their process
of reasoning is that if the Hawaiian
courts do not have federal jurisdiction
in the Chinese cases they do not have
it in admiralty cases, which by the
constitution of the United States are
specifically given to federal courts. IL
they have no jurisdiction in admiralty
cases, then the process by which the
City of Columbia was attached and tied
up here in the suits of Colegrove and
Berliner against the vessel is void and
the vessel was wrOngfully detained
here.
On this hypothesis the late owners
claim that they were damaged by this
void action to the extent of the value
of the vessel, $4,000, inasmuch as It
was her detention at that time which
caused them to lose her In addition
they lay claim to damages for the loss
of profit that would otherwise have ac-
crued to them. They claim they could
have chartered the vessel for $4,000
a month at any time during her en-
forced stay here if they could have got
her away and to the coast.
They also claim damages for the loss
of the business that would have accru-
ed to them as the result of establishing
line of steamers between here and
Seattle. In all they estimate their dam
| ages at about 100000.

FAST MAIL SERVICE.
Four Days Between New York and San
Francisco.

A new trans continental fast mail
service between New York and San
Francisco has been inaugurated which
reduces the mail time from 10 hours
So minutes, to 81 hours So minutes. The
first mail under this system left New
York Sunday night January LIST, at
9:15 p. M, Atlantic standard time, and
reached San Francisco Thursday, Jan
uary 5th at S:45 p. m, Pacific stand
ard time.
The average time for the 3,345 mile
journey was 1902 miles an hour. This
includes all stops. Between New York
City and Chicago the average was 40.03;
Chicago to Council Bluffs, 47.02; Coun-
ell Bluffs to Ogden, 1907; Ogden to san
Francisco, 26 miles.
No reduction in time is made on the
Central Pacific. All of the changes re-
sulting in reducing the hours between
New York and San Francisco, are made
east of Ogden.
Some very high rates of speed were
attained during the trip. One 80 mile
distance was made in 101 minutes. II
is asserted that if the system of trans
ferring mail was done away with and
a special mail train run direct from
New York the trans continental mail
could be landed in San Francisco in the
middle of the afternoon, making a gain
of about eighteen hours instead of on
ly thirteen hours, the record under the
new schedule,

POOR HONOLTLT.

The funny part of the whole thing is
that both sides in the matter blame
Honolulu for the troubles of the City
of Columbia. At first the captain the
owners and men closest to the enter
prise blamed Honolulu for the numer-
Gus suits against the vessel, alleging
that it was a local scheme to get the
steamer out of the way. Now the sal
lors are black in the face with rage be-
cause somebody did not buy the vessel
yesterday. They feel that it was a
conspiracy of this strange, wicked city
to cut them out of their due.
And they will all write roasting"
letters to their big little town near Ia
coma, Immediately after which Homo
lulu will have to shut up shop and go
out of business.

WALTER NJ. MCFARLAND.
Retires From the Navy for the West
inghouse Company.

The navy is about to lose one of its
brightest young officers, says the
Washington Star, in the person of
Passed Assistant Engineer Walter M.
Mcfarland, at present attached to the
bureau Of steam engineering as assist
ant to Engineer in Chief Melville. Mr..
Mcfarland leaves the navy to become,
assistant general manager of the Wes-
tinghouse Company at Pittsburg, at a
salary four times as large as that he
now receives from the government
The offer was a tribute to the COM
bined scientific and practical qualifica-
tions of Mr.. Mcfarland He was ap-
pointed to the naval academy In 1875
as cadet engineer, as a result of a
comparative examination among the
public schools of the District of Column
bia and at Annapolis he easily took
hrst place in his class. While attached
to the engineering bureau of the navy
department he had much to do with the
designing of the machinery for the Ves-
sells of the modern navy which have
rendered such good accounts of them
selves. He has just returned to Wash
ington from a long tour OF service, part
of the time on the San Francisco in the
Mediterranean.
Mr.. Mcfarland will lie remembered
by many as q popular young officer on
the U. S. S. Vandalia. which was sta
toned here during 1888 and part of
1889. He was very popular in society
and was a member of an amateur the
atrical organization that did some very
pleasing work He left the Vandalia
here, and so escaped when the Wanda
liza later went down in the hurricane at
Samoa.

al Months.

A daughter of General Weyler was a
resident of Honolulu for several months
during the past summer and autumn.

here with her husband. who was the
correspondent of the Chicago Inter-
Ocean and the New York Sun. They
came here by way of Victoria, arriving
early in August and remaining until
about month ago.

icent about speaking to strangers or
any but her most intimate friends
about her relation to the Spanish gen

in America and among Americans re-
garding him.
She is woman of about 26. Though

she is of striking appearance. She met
her husband about eight years ago

borrowed government piles and run in

everything else we could lay hands
on"
The latter remark was half in Jest,
but is more than almost true Being
of particular finish all the lumber for
the sheds had to be ordered. Thus far
only one of the sheds has been compIet-

third has not been started at all yet
