A SOLDIER SHOT.
Sergeant Jones Of the 25,h In
faltTy The Victim.
DRUNK AND OISUROERLY
Pauahi Street the Scene-Cuards-
man Nc ullum Fire d the Shot
In the Line OF Duty
OISUROERLY

Pauahl street was the scene OF a Sc
rious shooting ARRAY at about 8
o'clock Last night, and as a result Ser
geant Jones (colored) of the Twenty
fifth United States Infantry, en- route
to Manila by the transport Pensylva-
MIA, is lying at the hospital with a
hole through his body
Jones, who was under the influence
of liquor at the time. was seen by a
provost guardsman to leave house in
the locality of Pauahi and Smith
streets aourishing a 44-caliber Smith
& Wesson revolver, which was tied to
his wrist by a strap. The man was
counting trouble ana he got it, for the
grardsman-James f. McCullum, al
though only about q years Of age, is
stickler for duty, and Jones action
required prompt measures. Bringing
his rifle to ready" McCullum ordered
Jones to throw up his hands. The
drunken man responded with vile Ian
guage and the order was repeated
twice without compliance. McCul-
lum then fired, the bullet striking the
drunken sergeant's right breast just
below the collarbone passing clean
through the body and out again below
the shoulder blade. Jones continued
to flourish his weapon for a minute
after having been shot and then, with
curse, threw it down and walked
away from the guard for quite a dis
lance before he fell TO the ground. For
five minutes he did not appear to rea-
lie the fact that he was wounded
and then remarked: Boys, | cant
walk any further. I'm shot" The re-
port of the Krag Jorgensen quickly at
tracted a crowd, among them being
Captain Parker Jr., who teiephoned
for the patrol wagon after having
placed young McCullum under arrest.
Jones was conveyed to Dr. Cooper's Of
ice and after his wounds had been eX-
amined and dressed he was sent out to
The military hospital. Although seri-
Gus. the wound is not necessarily IA
tai. and at an early hour this morning
Tones was resting comfortably.
Young McCullum was taken to the
police station and held there for about
ar hour, pending the result of an in
vestigation by Deputy Marshal Chill
,ingworth and the Captain of his com
pany. which ended in the prisoners re-
lease and his return to the ship.
Throughout last evening and up to
10 O'Clock, squads of armed men were
posted near every saloon and wherever
the me-. were likely TO congregate, I'M
der strict orders to stop any disturb
ance, and as a consequence, most OF
the men behaved in an exemplary man
ner.
At 10 o'clock provosts guards were
patrolling the streets and every strag-
gler found, was taken in hand.

LOCAL CHARITIES
President Dole in the
Char.
The Monthly Report of the Manager.
Mrs Hyde'S Present of
Books.

President Dole occupied the chair al
the regular meeting of the Associated
Charities of Hawaii, held yesterday aft
! efnOon in the sOciety's rooms
/ The financial statement showed a to-
| tal of $40 received by donation to the
funds during the month, and also that
llthe institution is on a sound financial
basis.
The nucleus of library has been
formed by the donation by Mrs Hyde
of a number of ve1y valuable books
from the library Of the late DIR. c. NJ.
Hyde.
A general feeling of pleasure was ex-
pressed at the work of the society, not
only in the relief granted, but in the
number of appointments obtained for
applicants for employment.
Following is the managers report for
the month ending 18th inst:
The work of the Associated Charities
like organized charity work than that
of any previous month. Nearly all of
the persons applying for relief have
been found deserving. Relief has been
given at once, where needed, prompt
investigation has followed, the cases
referred to the societies under whose
care they would naturally come, and
the societies have been very prompt to
res pond with the aid required, thus o 1T
ting the work ON business basis. We
have now enrolled the names of fifty
five benefciaries of the affiliating So
cieties. The bulk OF the work falls OH
one society, which is dispensing more
than 5000 per month to it's benefciar-
les. We are trying to adjust this mat
ter SO that each society shall come for
the cases that legitimately fall to j.
This will be comparatively easy to ar
range with the affiliating societies,
since Mr.. Hackfeld's very generous Do
nations have made it possible for each
society to care for it's own, but with
the nOn-affiliating societies we find it
less easy, yet hope IN time to see it all
properly adjusted.
The Associated Charities seems ID
have established an employment bu-
reau in it's office, having many appli-
cations for work. AS per this month s
report, there We're eight applications
for work, and situations were found for
seven-all who really desired work.
It is now three months since the Of
flee was established. During that time
situations have been secured for sew
enteen persons and relief has been pro-
vided in food, clothing, rent and physi-
clans fees

Library OF NewpaperS.

MIR. Henry Davis of the postoffice
has a complete collection of the files
of all the newspapers published in Ho-
nolulu since the year 1886. He still
continues his collection and now mas
packing-cases full of local history,
some of it of an exciting nature dur
ing the revolutionary years which inn
mediately preceded the downfall of the
monarchy. Such collection is rar-
ity with private citizens and some OF
the volumes in Mr.. Davis files are now
scarce and all are valuable from an
historical standpoint.

leaving at 1:45 remains one hour in
stead of twenty minutes as heretofore,

The extended time here of No.

Election Notes Condensed.

Senator Hanna declared today that
Nash would be elected governor, but
declined to estimate plurality.
Troops are being equipped to keep
order at polls in Kentucky tomorrow.
Both parties confident of victory in
Maryland. Estimates are a tie in
districts outside of Baltimore and that
city, with 10000 voters is the debat-
able ground
Regarding the Ohio campaign ex-
Gov. Jas. 3. Campbell says that Nc
Leans plurality will be 10000 If the
Democrats keep united. Claims made
for Nash vary from 10000 to $4,000
wide difference being caused by un-
certainty about how Jones vote now
conceded to be well onto 100, 900 will
erect the Republican vote.
