DEATH OF MRS. GEORGE ]. TANNING,
"A Letter Conveys the Sad News to Her
Parents in This CITY.

Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas Long of this
city last Tuesday received the sad in
telligence of the death of their daugh-
ter, Mrs. G.. J. Tanning, which occurred
Thursday afternoon, April Goth at the
Hotel Dien, in New Orleans. D. Fan
ming is stationed at the Fort Eclknap
(Mont.) Indian agency as physician in
the employ of the government and. in
company with his wife, was spending
the winter in the south, expecting to
return to Montana about May 1st DR..
and Mrs. Tanning had resided at New
Orleans for several months to enable
the doctor to take special course at
the Tulane Medical college, when the
lady became afflicted with peritonitis.
When it was found that it would be
necessary to perform an operation, the
doctor took his wife to the Hotel Diem
"a private hospital conducted by the
Sisters of Charity, where Dr. Sims, a
celebrated physician performed the
operation. Everything possible was
done but it soon became apparent that
Mrs. Tanning could not recover, and
shortly before her death she told her
husband to write to her aged parents.
giving them her love and to convey the
sad news. The letter, written by the
bereaved husband, and which bears
every evidence of great sorrow, arrived
last Tuesday afternoon. 1t was a Sc
we're blow to Mr.. and Mrs. Long, who
had had no intimation of their daugh-
ters illness and the aged couple is al
most broken hearted. Mrs. Long was
taken i'll and has been confined to her
bed ever since the sad news was brought
to her and considerable anxiety is felt
concerning her recovery.
The utmost sympathy of the commu-
nifty is extended Mr.. and Mrs Long in
their sad affiiction.

PARADE LED BY A BRASS BAND
An Excellent Programme Was Rendered
at Miners Union Hall in the After
noOn-One OF the Most Bril-
liant Events in Granite,

The celebration of the eightieth an
niversary of the Independent Order ot
Odd Fellows last Wednesday, was ar
event long to be rendered by the peo
pie of that thriving little city. Fol
some days previous the members OF
Granite Lodge No 27, under whose di.
rection the festivities took place. were
busily engaged making preparations,
and the details as arranged were fully
carried out.
Shortly after the noon hour the mem
bers of Gable Lodge No. arrived from
Philipsburg in Carmichael's band
wagon. and the procession formed in
front of Odd Fellows hall about ?
o'clock. Headed by j. H. Viols sill
yer cornet band, the parade proceeded
with brilliant music, passing through
the principal streets of the city to
Miners Union hall, where the ami
versary ceremonies were held
Acting Noble Grand G.. A. Kent pre-
sided and delivered the opening ad-
dress, which was followed by several
musical selections.
George ". Suppiger, of Philipsburg,
was the orator of the day, and he de
livered very eloquent address, touch
ing upon the history of the order and
Odd Fellowship in general.
The exercises were concluded with
the rendition of several additional yo.
cal and instrumental selections, the
band playing "Auld Lang Syne.''
The real celebration, however, was
yet to come, and the ball in the even
ing at Miners Union hall eclipsed
any previous event Of that nature in
GRANTEES history. A second load of
visitors arrived from Philipsburg in a
band-wagon early in the evening, and
many visiting brethren, with their la
dies, arrived in carriages. Philips

tended in body. The town of Gran
ite was in its holiday attire, and the
occasion was an extremely happy one
the visitors were accorded the freedom
of the city and were most royalty en-
tertained. In due time dancing was
commenced at Miners Union hall, ex-
cellent music being furnished for the
occasion Dy frO1. WestphalS orchestra.
Mr.. James r. McRae acted in the ca
pacity of floor director. All had a
highly enjoyable time, and the visitors
from Philipsburg are loud in their
praise Of the reception and treatment
accorded them by their Granite breth-
reD.
Not least among the notable features
OF the great event was the banquet
given at the Cumming hotel at mid
night. A royal spread which would
have aroused the envy of Boss Gro.
RS Jeffersonian banquet here awaited
the guests, and from the way every one
enjoyed the feast it is doubtful whether
Croker's guests had half as good a
time as did the three link aggregation
at Granite. After the banquet dancing
was resumed and continued until the
early hours of the morning.

A VERY SAD DEATH.
The Little Son of Mr.. and Mrs. NJ. +. Doe
Suddenly Expires

Marshall Edwin, the eldest son of
Mr.. and Mrs. M. E. Doe, died this morn
ing at the family residence on South
Montgomery street, aged three years.
Edwin had not been very well for sew
eral weeks and last evening he was
taken with commissions, which resulted
fatally, and death brought relief to the
little sufferer shortly after o'clock this
friday morning.

THE WORK ON RIVER PARK
RETAINING WILL is NEXT TO BE
BUILT.
A Handsome Piece of Masoury-Sharp
Escarpment on River Side will Set
off Park Features.

River park is not to be left the des-
olate waste 1t now is, the resort for
empty tin cans and the lounging place
of rubbish.
A conference has just been held be-
tween a number of citizens interested
in having it become a park and Minis
ter King and Superintendent of Public
Works Rowell. After "A full discussion
of the matter it was decided best to
postpone pumping more material on
the area until the retaining wall on the
Eva side of Nuuanu stream between
King and Beretania streets is built
The work of getting out and preparing
stone for this wall is in progress now
though it will take some time to com
plete the job The wall when complet-
ed will show a handsome and striking
parapet with the escarpment on the
river side. From this wall the sur
face will be graded back, and when
turf and trees have been planted and
acquire growth, the park will be ex-
actly what the legislature intended it
should be.
AS soon as the retaining wall is COM
pleted the necessary additional mate
rial will be pumped on it, and the area
will then begin to assume something
of the appearance of the ground work
for a park.

PALLADIUM OF LIBERTY NEW PLANTATION IN SIGHT.
LANAI MAY BE HANDLED BY MEN
FROM ABROAD.
Quite Possible That Local Capitalists
Will Not Have a Chance in the Big
Deal.

1t is understood that the Lanai Plan
tation Company formed by r. D..
Walbridge about year ago, will lease
it's property to a hui of eastern capi-
talists-Montana men. A sugar estate
will at once be laid out. 1t is hardly
possible than any of the stock will be
let out here, as the promoters are men
of almost unlimited capital.
Little concerning the details can be
gathered on the streets. 1t is known
that Lanai is we'll fitted for the pur-
pose now mapped uut for it. The soil
has been pronounced the very best,
and it has been proven that water can
be secured. 1t is stated that it will
be possible to have 1000 acres in cane
within twelve months after starting
Lanai belongs to the Gibson estate. 1t
has heretofore been used for pasturing
stock. There is room on it for the
proposed sugar plantation and the cat
tie ranch as well.
Two more new plantations are pro-
jected, though 1t will be some weeks
before the details are settled. In the
meanwhile spectators and some bona
fide investors are busy with the older
stocks and at the same time looking
ahead to what may come.
There is an interesting feeling of con-
fidence in most local stocks. With the
stability of government and trade un-
der annexation people are beginning
to realize that many things are good.
The presence of eastern capital, and
the prospect of much more of it dur
ing the year, money that will be salts
fled with four, six or eight per cent,
will in all likelihood stir whirlwlnd
on the Hawaiian thirty to sixty per
cent stock market

TO A SCIENTIFIC STANDPOINT.

Nowhere in the world have the sani-
tary conditions of barber shops been
advanced to higher degree than they
have been in Honolulu. No expense
is spared, and every effort is put forth
to advance the conditions and guard
against infection.
Now comes the latest Improvement
introduced by the Silent Barber Shop,
on Hotel street. 1t is announced by Mr..
Fernandez the proprietor, that after
using, every razor brush, comb and
towel, will be thoroughly sprayed and
cleaned by an ordOrless antiseptic solu-
tion, which will make them as clean
and harmless as a new tool.
The spraying of BARRIERS tools is re-
quired by law in Paris, and will be
duly appreciated by the citizens of
Honolulu. 1t is a sanitary innovation
that Mr.. Fernandez deserves much
credit for introducing, and will tend
to make the Silent Barber Shop more
popular than ever.
The hot towel that some may prefer
will be used when requested, and a
customer at the Silent Barber Shop
can have every convenience obtainable
elsewhere.
After using the hot towel spray
over the face and head with the odor-
less antiseptic solution is very pleas
ant and cooling, and is an additional
sanitary precaution,

THE AVERAGE LIFE.

1t is difficult to determine accurately
the average life of a good bicycle, but
it is estimated that the ordinary per-
son, riding to and from his business
and for pleasure, covers about 1000
miles in year. There are Sterlings in
use that have been ridden nearly 40, 900
miles, which would be equivalent to 20
years of average service. One Sterling
bicycle was ridden in one year over
$4,000 miles, and in doing this the
wheels rotated in their bearings near
ly 25,000,000 times, and the bearings
when examined showed no appreciable
wear. The bearings for the '99 model
Sterling are the S. & j. special drawn
steel, corboniZed and ground bone, to
diamond temper, and ground on their
own centers, making them not only
true, but absolutely in line with each
other. Felt washers and ball retain
' ers are used throughout. The Pacific
Cycle & Manufacturing Co. have so
of the new improved '99 model Sterling
bicycles in transit They expect part
of this shipment to arrive on the Moa-
ma.

A MURDER and A FORGERY
TWO IMPORTANT CASES BEFORE
LOCAL COURTS.
Particulars of the Killing of a Woman
at Hanalei Kauai-Bogus Bills in
Honolulu.

There has been considerable curiosity
on the part Of the general public to
know the nature of the alleged murder
with which Jules Titcomb now stands
charged before the circuit court. II Is
matter that has been heretofore re-
ferred to briefly for the reason that the
result of the present preliminary ex-
animation could not be foreSeen. As
brought out at the hearing the case
may be briefly stated as follows:
Kahele was the name of the dead
woman. She received injuries during
the night of November 9TH at Hama
lei. Kauai, of which she died four days
later.
A cOroner's jury, composed entirely
of natives, looked into the matter and
returned a verdict of death as a result
of natural causes. SO much had been
said and so much known on Kauai
about the matter that this verdict at
once started all sorts of rumors. In
the meanwhile, or Immediately follow
ing, TitComb left Hanalei and came 10
Honolulu to reside, taking a place al
Palama.
There followed him to Honolulu the
ugly rumors concerning the death of
Kahele, the verdict of the coroner's
jury and the suspicion that Titcomb
was mixed up in it. Marshal Brown
sent David KAPPA to Hanalei to look
up the matter and he returned with
most of the long array of evidence put
in by the prosecution at the hearing.
Titcomh was married to a sister of
the dead woman. Upon her death he
lived with Kahele. On the night re-
ferred to the woman was horribly beat
en-. A rifle was one of the weapons
used. The affair occurred in the house
of defendant. 1t was first accepted in
the community that Titcomb did the
beating and there was some indlgna-
ton. When the woman died and the
coroner's jury returned its verdict the
fury of a part of the community was
unbounded.
Since the arrest the charge was
changed from murder in the first de-
gree to murder in the second degree:
A second case before the court at
present is that of Ed Aldrich, alleged
forgery. This matter is also exciting
a great deal of interest. The arrest
was made last fall, following by sew
eral months the appearance of spuri-
Gus Hawaiian treasury notes in town.
The first of these was discovered by
the late Edwin Jones, cashier of the
Bank of Hawaii, and was shown in the
hall of the Legislature last summer.
Others came out in town. Marshal
Brown conducted for several months n
| last Aldrich was arrested. A photo
graphic outfit and evidence that that
was the process of making the spurious
money were unearthed in the room
supposed to be occupied by Aldrich.
