BAD ROAD ACCIDENT.
Mrs. John A. McCandless and Several
Children Injured.

Mrs. j. A. .McCandless and child, and
two children of c. G.. Ballentyne, were
quite badly hurt in a road accident on
Punahou street Sunday afternoon. They
were in a double carriage, coming from
the direction of Punahou, when the
horses became unmanageable, and
dashed into a telephone pole. The shaft
struck the pole and a horse went on
each side of it. The result can be well
imagined. In second of time the vehi-
Gle was a wreck, the horses were torn
out of the harness and turned around,
and the occupants of the carriage were
hurled upon the road.
Mrs. McCandless sustained a broken
arm. One of the Ballentyne children
also had an arm broken and all mem
bers of the party were badly bruised.
The driver was quite badly shaken up.
The injured were taken into the Jaeger
place, where they soon received medi-
cal attention.

4 MISSION SECRETARY

DIR. Morehouse, secretary of the Bap-
tist home mission board, will remain
about five weeks in Honolulu. Dur
ing that time he will speak, perhaps
two or more times. The visitor finds
little room in Hawaii for another
branch of the Protestant church, and
the chances are he will make no move
toward establishing a mission.
Dr. Morehouse is stopping with the

SOUTH BEFORE THE WAR.

William McVay and his players VIII
present to theater-goers of Honolulu
next Saturday night Dion Boucicault's
famous comedy drama The Octoroon. No
play ever written of the slave days with
the exception of Uncle Toms Cabin, has
reached the popularity of The Octoroon.
1t is q drama of such intense interest
that 1t holds the spectator spell-bound,
until the end of the story. Salem Scud-
der, and inventive Yankee and Jacob
McClosky, a Northern slave driver, are
great contrasting characters. One is an
honest, good hearted soul, who would
shed his last drop of blood for his
friends; while the other is such an in
carnate villain, that he provokes almost
Immediately the deadly hatred of the
audience. Joseph Jefferson has brought
the part of Salem Scudder into such
prominence that it is said to rival his
Rip Van Wrinkle, in artistic execution.
Mr.. McVay's ability as a character
actor is such as to make this part par
ticularly suited to him. The whole COM
pany have been well cast and a perfect
performance is to be looked forward to-.

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.

chine examine the Singer before pur-
chasing any other make. b. Berger

fined $50 in the Police court this morn

quarantine some days ago, and had no
permit to come in. The fine is simply a
punishment, for the man is still on the

NEW FRENCH FIELD GUN.

The inwardnesS Of the Dreyfus af-
diplomats know it, but the press does
not seem to have become aware of it.
The French army is now being
equipped with a rapid firing field gun,
which is said to be the most destructive
weapon in existence for land battles
A French officer recently wrote to a
friend in England that 1--WE fired
twenty-five shells a minute per gun.
The target consisted of 200 wooden SOL
diers at a distance of two and one-half
miles. These We're all down in one
minute and three-quarters."
The strictest secrecy is kept regard
ing the mechanism of the gun. Only
picked and faithful officers are permit
ted to know anything about it. If it
needs repairing it is sent to one CEN
trail factory, where reliable men take it
to pieces.
The German army officials are aware
of the capacity of this gun, and have
been, and are, willing to spend enor
nous sums of money for information
regarding it. So far the German spies,
and the prodigal use of money, have
brought no definite information to
them about it. 1t is the attempt of
the Germans to buy the secret of the
construction of this gun, that is,
largely, the cause of the Dreyfus
scandal The concealment of evidence
in the trial of Dreyfus was done, in
order to prevent astounding revela-
tions, involving German efforts to Sc
cure the secret. No doubt the German
spies have reported to the army head
quarters the destructive power of this
weapon, and no effort or money will
be spared by the German military
authorities to obtain one of them, OF
sufficient knowledge to construct one
like it,

CALVIN s. BRICE.

The late Calvin S. Brice, whose tern
Ohio closed in 1896, was an excellen
type of the professional politician
He was the builder of his own for.
tunes, for behind him there was no.
thing but his energy, intelligence anC
luck He managed, in the reorgan.
dzation of a bankrupt railroad to make
considerably over a million of dollars
which ne subsequently lost. Retain
ing homestead in Ohio, he resided in
New York for some years. Wishing
for various reasons TO enter the Fede-
raj Senate, he coolly offered, it was
strongly asserted, the sum of $4,000
to the political machines in Ohio for
the place. Il was accepted, and he
was elected. Ohio had a nonresident
Senator for six years. Mr.. Brice was
recognized in Washington as the spe-
cial agent Of the Sugar Trust. AL
though his own fortune had been near
ly wasted, he gave the most lavish
entertainments Of the seasons in
Washington. His wife was a woman
OF remarkable social tact, and she
never failed to make friends. She
possessed the rare art of doing the
right thing at the right time. Mr..
Brice was not an attractive man per-
sonally. He knew it, and paid his
way
AS a politician he had studied under
the late Sam'l J. Tilden. When a
member of the National Democratic
committee, he displayed singular
strength in the organization of cam
paigns and in the grasp of details. He
looked upon politics as a business. He
once said inthe Manhattan Club of New
York City, that if he could afford the
but he regarded a Mugwump in prac-
teal politics as an "unregenerate
cuss," who ought to be exterminated.
The moralists will say that Mr..
Brice demoralized political thought.
He surely did not. He simply express
ed it. When, virtually a resident of
New York, he was elected by MAORI
ty of the votes OF the ohio Legisla-
ture to the Office of a Senator repre-
senting that State, the Legislature of
Ohio simply expressed the condition
of political thought in the State. The
conditions selected Mr.. Brice. AS the
conditions improve, the character of
the selections will improve.

thing. Campere has had considerable
experience in planning against the enc
mics OF fruit, but recognizes Prof. Koe-
! belle as the chief of the tribe making a
| speciality of this line of work. But the
story is about the cigars these chums
use. They both smoke light steam
boats. The smoke they blow forth
sends the most vigorous and active in
sect into a stupor in an instant. The
cigars are said to be from Mexico
The weeds are blacker than a cargo

is worse than knockout drops in stale
beer, and no ordinary individual can
stand IL minute. 1t drives microbes
from the atmosphere and outdoors
clouds the atmosphere like grasshop-
pers in Kansas. The murder-in-the-
first-degree feature of the case is that
Prof. Koebele and Campere will in
good faith offer these cigars to friends
who are not immune. 1t is believed
that the smokers are filed with pois-
onOus wood that has been ground fine
and soaked in raw sulphur and brine
from army contract picked beef. The
wrappers, it is thought, are pieces of
Indian blanket, discovered in some wet
caves in Old Mexico. Attempts have
been made to assay these cigars, but
they resist all chemicals known to
modern fertilizing works.
