SU|C|DED At DAYLIGHT.
HAWAIIAN SHOOTS HIMSELF
WITH REVOLVER.
Despondent on Account of Illness-A
Small Bullet but 1t Killed-Deceas-
ed Well Known About Town.

Tintaro Osawa, a Hawaiian of ia
panese parentage, shot himself in the
right side with a 80 calibre revolver
this morning, and is dead.
The tragedy occurred at the suicides S
house in Pauao valley. The ball cut
through the cartilage at the fourth rib
into the lungs. Hemorrhages follow
ed quickly, and in a short time life
was extinct.
When the shot was fired Osawa call
ed loudly for his wife. A brother in
law rushed into the room. The suicide
was lying on his bed and was strug-
Cling to raise the hammer of the re-
volver, ostensibly to fire again. He
was too weak to use the weapon how
ever, and gave it up to his friend.
Deputy Marshal Chillingworth was
summoned at o'clock. He assembled
the following jury, which met at s,
examined witnesses and returned a
verdict before noon: John Kuaana,
William Kaluna, H. K. Aki, K. Ku-
kaulalii, G. w. Naholowaa and p. K.
Kalauoa. The verdict was that the
deceased "came to his death in Homo
lulu, Island of Oahu, on April T. 1899,
from hemorrhages, the result of a
wound at the cartilage of the fourth
rib on the right side, caused by bull
let which was discharged from re-
volver held in the hand of said Tinta-
70 Osawa, deceased
Osawa was born here and was in
every respect, save blood, Hawaiian.
He had a native wife and leaves two
children. For many years he was en-
plOyed in Lucas planning mill. About
a year ago asthma set in upon him so
badly that he was forced to give up
the mill and engaged in lighter employ
ment. Several physicians treated him
but without success.
Suicide was due to despondency on
account of his sufferings. He said to
his wife only few days ago that he
did not care to live any longer

Professor Henry w. Rolfe of the Uni
versity of Chicago will arrive by the
Doric next Tuesday and will deliver
the first lecture of the course and or
ganize classes Thursday evening. The
place where the lecture win be given

been settled.

THE HUNCHBACK.

The part of Julia in Sheridan
Knowles "The Hunchback," is one
which Miss Waldorf is particularly well
adapted to take. The character is one
in which feminine daintiness and wom-
anly force are combined and contrast
ed, and in either half of the almost dual
nature thus presented she is equally
at home. In the portrayal of the light
er part of the character there may at
times seem something akin to affec-
tation in the actress, but this wholly
disappears as the force and passion of
the loving woman are developed. 1t is
not in it's conception the strongest of
parts, but Miss Waldorf makes a
great deal of it, and that the audience
appreciates the fact was very evident

FRANK NJ. WELLS OF THE FIRST
TENNESSEE.
Is on His Way to Manila on the Zea-
landia-A Jealous Baptist and Sue
cessful Revivalist

Frank NJ. Wells, the new chaplain
of the First Tennessee regiment now
on his way to Manila on the Zeaiandia,
though young man, has achieved a
great reputation as a preacher and re-
vivalist all over the south and south
west.
When news was received of the de-
mise of Chaplain l.. J. Leland in Ma
nila of smallpox, church people all ov-
er Tennessee began sending petitions
to the governor asking for the ap-
pointment of Rev. Wells, to the vacant
position. He was pastor of Mt. Pisgah
Baptist church, Memphis, Tenn, the
oldest Baptist church in Shelby couu-
ty. 1t was established nearly ninety
years ago.
Previous to becoming pastor of this
church, he has been in evangelist
work for a number of years holding
services in churches and tents in
twenty-one different states and terri
tories.
Captain Wells, for that is his title,
though he was sent out on such short
notice that he hasn't had time yet to
get uniform, and still dresses in his
clerical black, is a graduate of the
Southwestern Baptist University at
Jackson, Tenn, and of the Southern
Baptist Theological Seminary at Louis
vile, Ky. In preparation for his evan
gelistic work he took course of Bible
study at the Moody Institute, Chicago.
He is typical southerner, courteous
| and polite but plain spoken, and with
! an engaging candor that is really mag
netic.
During his stay here Captain Wells
has visited a number of the nearby
| points of interest and made many in
| quiries regarding the customs and in
stitutons here. He has been a fire.
I quent contributor to Baptist church
| papers of the south, and will write
! letters to them from Manila.

THE MORNING STAR.
She Sails This Afternoon on a Ten
Months Cruise.

The missionary bark Morning Star
sails this afternoon for the Gilbert Is
lands and the Carolines. She takes six
teen passengers, including those who
came here from San Francisco. These
We're Mrs. Simpson and three chill
dren, who is going to join her husband,
and Miss Wilson, a teacher, who is
returning.
Those who go from here are Mr.. and
Mrs. De la Porte and child, who go to
engage in missionary work; Mrs. Gar
land and two children, who accompa-
MES her husband, Captain Garland,
master of the bark. Others are John
Higgins, a Gilbert Islander, and his
two children, who came up on the
Morning Star some months ago, and
Lanien and wife, Marshall Islanders,
who also came here on the Morning
Star. Lanien has been engaged in as
ssting in the translation of the Bible
into the Marshal Island language.
The course of the Morning Star will
depend somewhat on the winds she en-
counters. She will probably go first
to Butaritari in the Gilbert Islands,
and then to the Carolnes. 1t is eX-
pected that her cruise will occupy ten
months. Among her crew are several
Hawaiians.

MORE OF THEM USED.

There are probably more Singer sew
ing machines used in the United States
than of any other one make, This is a
very excellent guarantee that they are
one of the very best machines. The
points of merit are strength, durabil-
ity, easy running and simple construc-
tion. Very little mechanism to get out
of order makes repair bills small.
When IN need of a new sewing ma
chine examine the Singer before pur-
