.LUAU AT WASHINGTON.
To Be Given In Celebration of
LiIiOukalani's Birthday.

San Francisco, Aug. 26.-The steamer
Alameda from Australia via Apia, and
Honolulu brings the following from
the latter place under date of August
IS:
Washington City will have a real
Hawaiian luau, with poi, fish. other
deHcacies. leis, music and dancing.
Prince David Kawananaloa puts up
for the luau. By the Doric he shipped
two boxes weighing 1900 pounds, con-
tanning all required for putting on an
elaborate feast. He left for Washing
ton by the same steamer.
Poi, fish, Seaweed, etc, were frozen
in ice by the Hawaiian Electric COM
pany and then securely packed to keep
the cases Will go by express to Wash
ington. They will not be opened until
the day of the luau.
The feast is to be given in honor of
former Queen LiliOukalani and will
take place on her birthday, September
2. All the HawaiianS in Washington
and those visiting in the east at the
time will be invited to be present. Ar
rangements will also probably be made
to the the Quintette club and native
dancers from Omaha to Washington
for the day. There will be some prOmi-
nent American guests, chiefly members
of congress.
The luau is a novelty and will doubt
less create considerable of a sensation
IN washington. Nothing OF the KIND,
on so large a scale has ever been at
tempted before. If the weather be fine
the feast will take place in true Ha-
waiian style under a lanai on a lawn.
Otherwise a house will be used for the
purpose.
Prince David will spend about five
months in the east visiting all of the
big cities and points of interest.
The cruiser Boston sailed for San
Francisco, August 19.
There was cheering along the
wharVes as she sailed out of the chan
mel with her great flag flying and her
long homeward bound pennant stream

The ship Tacoma left on the 18th
with her cargo of cavalry horses for
Manila.
The trouble which has arisen over
the importation of labor from Madeira
to the Hawaiian islands has resulted in
the authorities at Washington asking
information of Special Agent Sewell.
Consul Jones' letter complaining to
the administration of the contract la
Dor system Of the Hawaiian islands has
been forwarded here from Washington
and is so replete with miSinfOrmatiOn
that the local authorities will pay but
little attention to the latter save to cor
turn it to Washington. To correct it,
it for there are very few words of act
ual fact in it.
The incident is important because 1t
shuts off a number of laborers the
planters had calculated upon for the
next quarter. In fact, Madeira as a
labor market may in the future be re-
garded as closed.

NEED OF THE HOUR.
1t Is For a City Hall, Says a
Man Who Knows.

1t is becoming more and more ap-
parent that the city of Topeka, the cap
ital of the greatest state in the union,
will be held in derision by the rest of
the state, and by other cities, if her
people allow the proposition to erect a
new city hall to be defeated. The peO
pie of the state demand that Topeka
shall have a hall in which state con-
ventions can he held, and there is not
a public hall in the city available for
that purpose at present.
John Macdonald, editor of the West
ern School Journal, who has Travelled
over the entire state attending teach
erS' Institutes during the summer, has
just returned from the extreme western
part of the state. and he says that
wherever he goes the people are watch
ing the action of Topeka with reference
to erecting a hall in which large state
conventions may be held. Topeka will
lose her prestige in the state if this
proposition is defeated.
Il was surprised said Mr.. Mac
Donald today, Ito note the interest
that people over the state are taking
in the matter. They are watching US
closely, and they expect US to put up
that building. They say that if To-
peka does not put up a convention hall
many of the large state conventions
will be compelled to go elsewhere. That
sort of thing would be a great calamity
for this, the capital of the state. We
had trouble with the State Teachers
aSSOC1dIlOu laSI winter. Inc legislature
was in session and we had to take the
association to the high school auditor
ium. We would have had a much
larger gathering if we had had a con-
vention hall centrally located in which
to hold it. The State Teachers as
sociation was attended last winter by
1,500 teachers from outside the city
Most of the school ma ans made con-
siderable purchases here. They spent
on an average from So to $40 each, and
they left at least So 900 in the city
This is only one state meeting of many
which must be accommodated by To-
peka. I was talking with a gentleman
from another part of the state as I was
coming home yesterday, and he said
that if Topeka did not build a conven-
ton hall some other city in the state
would do so, and that town would get
the big meetings
The travelling men who go over the
state great deal also report that peo-
pie are watching the fate of the city
hall proposition with great interest.
The travelling men who live here have
the good of the city at heart and they
are anxious to see the proposition carry.
One travelling man who makes his home
in Topeka, but who is required to be
Major Anderson as follows:
How is the auditorium question? Do
you think my vote will be necessary?
I see by paper that a two-thirds vote
is necessary. If it is not absoluteRy
necessary 1 will not go home-it costs
too much-but if 1 am needed I will
try to get there some way
Don't neglect to register and vote
for progress.

There is at WamegO, only a few miles
above st. Marys, a joint on an island
near the city.
A public bridge is suspended across
the river in Wamego, and under this
bridge there is an island. On the ISL
and is the joint and it is known as
Isle"
Running up from the island to a level
with the bridge floor is a stairway
any manner, but is only a step from
the floor to the platform surmounting
the steps. Patrons of the joint walk
out on the bridge; step over to the
platform and descend to the mystic
isle
Were these steps attached in any
manner to the bridge the jOintist would
be subject to heavy penalties, but he is
secure from prosecution while his tow
er of steps is independent of the county
property, and merry times are had up

Live Stock Commission to Make Mis-
souri, Quarantine Effective.

Taylor Riddle, secretary of the state
live stock sanitary commission attend
ed in Kansas City last night, a meeting
of the Kansas and Missouri live stock
commissions The meeting was called
preventing the smuggling of infected
cattle into southeastern Kansas.
The owners of infected cattle have
been smuggling stock into this state
by driving around the two Missouri
counties which are included in the list
quarantined against by the Kansas
commission. In the mountains and
woods of southwest Missouri they pass
the days and then move the cattle at
night. They are thus practically free
from detection.
The commissions have decided to es-
tablish a patrol of the state line and
offenders hereafter caught will suffer
the full penalty of the law.

Richest of the Year For Two
Year-OIds.
Opening of Fall Season of COney
Island Club
T SHEEPSHEAD BAY.
Candidates For the
$4,000 Prize.
James r. Keene's Chacornac Is
the FaY0rite.

New York Aug. 26.-The Sheepshead
Bay race track never looked better than
it did this morning on the opening of
the fall season of the Coney Island
Jockey club racing. Everything point
ed to a good day for the richest of the
2-year-old stakes of the year, the fu-
turity.
All of the horses engaged in the race
and there are % of them, and many
score besides were out for exercise in
the early morning hours and were
watched by a big throng trying to get
a line on the possible winner of the
big race. BY 10 O'Clock all the candi-
dates had their gallOpS and were in
their comfortable box stalls to await
the event that should make their own
er $4,000 richer.
Among the betting men, some agreed
that the Keene trio, Chacornac, Doub-
let and Virginia Earle were the best in
the collection and would be established
favorites in the betting at post time.
The weight of opinion was in favor of
ChacOrnac, the son of Juvenal, who
was purchased yesterday by James r.
Keene on his good work with the hope
that he would win the rich stakes and
most of the trainers who were not pre-
JUDGED because they had horse in the
race, thought his chance was a little
better than that of the others. as he
had not been raced too much and was
absolutely fit. In fact, it seemed as if
ming without stable companions
David Garrick had a lot of followers
in spite of the fact that he was down
to carry the top weight of 1874 pounds
and Iroquois Belle from the Bromley
string, was fancied to a considerable
extent.
Pluck's good races of late brought
him lot of friends. Okeete had a lot
of admirers and so on down the list.
The race bids fair to be closely con-
tested and any one of the lot appar-
emily has a chance. The horses,
weights and jockeys are as follows:

Nothing Can Induce Him to Run For

Ewing Herbert has been long in
Hiawatha, but he has escaped political
complication which has retired many
men to oblivion. This particular dis
ease has never had Herbert in its
clutches.
However, Mr.. Herbert is not yet safe
on this proposition. Bert Howard of
Horton wants Herbert to run for repre-
sentative, but before replying to How
ards kind suggestions, it is reported
that Herbert seeks personal satisfac-
ton.
Herbert says: Howard has always
been my friend and do not understand
what prompted him to suggest me as a
subject for a legislative calamity to be
visited upon"

her son had sold a horse; that two
tramps, knowing that he had money,
waylaid him. stabbing him three times

carbolic acid. The tramps are under
arrest at Albion. After the arrival of
his mother at Albion Charley. Jones ex-
pressed a desire to be brought to Atchi-
son and died while on the way.
