Speaking Of luck" said a reminiscent
man. reminds me Of how fortune came
TO a boarding-house keeper in a mill
town where | once lived. There came
to the house when he first struck the
town a new millhand. This hoarder seemed
al first just like any other young man with a
good appetite, out Of whom the profit to be
made was likely TO be small. hut il was speedily
discovered that he was a man Of ability and
promise. who was likely to get on AT the mill
te made great progress AT the works. 1t wasn't
long before he was at the head Of the section
Of the forge department there, the boss. in
fact, of the Atom hammers.
As far as he was concerned the only thing
that marred his happiness was the toughneSs
Of the steaks they had AZ the boarding house,
and that they were tough nobody could deny,
But he, was equal to the OCCASION there as he had
proved himself To hc At the mill.
" Madam he said one day 10 the landlady,
II you will let me take the steaks you buy be-
fore you cook them viii make them just as
tender as can he, without any cost to YOU what
Now, he had paid his board regularly and he
was az that moment virtually the star hoardcr.
The landlady handed him the next morning
without hesitation the bundle Of steaks just as
just took 'en over 10 the mill this being before
the regular starting time IN the morning, and
adjusting one Of the four-ton hanmers to about
the right gau Q, started j W and ran the steaks
a couple Of times under the hammer
Good Why, th"y were inst simply beauti-
full, and every morning after that the genial
hammer boss used to run across to the mill be-
fore breakfast and quietly. without the knowl-
edge OF any one. run the landlady's steaks back
and forth once under the four-ton hammer
The fame OF the landlady's tender steaks grew
rapidly, rs did also, naturally, the number Of
Der boarders. = And 30 she accumulated wealth"

cutive meeting today that he had look
ed up the law and state precedents in

tion to be held on Tuesday, November
6, two delegates to Congress shall be
elected, one to fill the short term end
ing the fifty-siXth Congress, in DeceIn-
Der, and tie other for the fifty-seventh

The Executive this morning decided
to take into the courts the matter of
the filling up of the channel between
quarantine island and Iwilei point.
After a lengthy discussion of the mat
ter this morning the Attorney General
was instructed to confer and act with
the United States district attorney in
the matter. This means that the fed
eral government will be invited to CO.
operate with the Territorial government
in preventing the filling up of the
channel
There was long discussion of the ce-
metery matter but no action was taken.
Superintendent McCandless present
ed a map of the proposed extension of
Punchbowl street to the beach road,
and reported that Captain Merry, u.
S. N, did not favor the extension as it
will run over land that the United
States may later require. The matter
was dropped.

MANY MAUI CANDIDATES.
BALDWIN AND DICKEY SURE OF
ELECTION.
Makawao Republicans Name Their Fa-
vorites-Registration in the Maui
District May Reach 1000 Voters.

HAMAKUAPOKO, September 20.-A
meeting OF the Republicans of the Ma
kaWao district was held here last Tues
day eveninafo discuss legislative can
diuates. Tnere was large attendance
and the chances of party success was
tully gone into. MakawaD district feels
that it is entitled to one senator and two
representatives, out of the legislative
representation given to the third re-
preventative district. on this basis 1t
chose as its candidates to be nominated
at the district convention, III. p. Bald
win for senator, and j. e. Kekipi and
G. H. Dickey for representatives. In
addition to this a number of names
were talked of as available for the re-
mainder of the Maui delegation. Among
these names were those Of A. N. Ke-
poikai and NJ. H. Reuter- of Hama for
senator's Among others mentioned for
or seeking nomination for representa-
tives are j. M. Kaneakua, who formerly
lived in Honolulu, but has recently
taken up his residence In Maui, Henry
Long. p. n. Kahokualuna. A. F. Tava-
res, j. X. Nakili and George Hons. 1t
is said that nearly every Hawaiian on
Maui who was ever a member of the
Legislature is a candidate for election
to the Legislature this year on some
ticket or other. 1t is believed that H.
P. Baldwin and c. H. Dickey can be
elected, no matter who is in nomination
against them.
On the Democratic side, it is expected
that w. II. Cornwell John Richardson,
and T. B. Lyons will be the nominees
for senator. The Democrats have so rar
not had as many candidates for the
house of representatives come forward
or be put forward as either of the other
parties. F. H. Hayselden will undoubt-
edly be one of the Democratic candi-
dates for the house but who the others
will be has not been decided.
The Republican convention to nomi-
nate the legislative candidates for the
district win be held at Wailuku, Sep

Il HUNGCHANG AND CHING
RECOGNIZED AS CHINA's PEACE
COMMISSIONERS.
Will Negotiate with the Powers as to
Terms of Peace and Indemnity for
Outrages Committed.

SHANGHAI. September Ali Hung
Chang informed a representative of the
Associated Press today that he will
start for Tien Tsin Friday, September
IA, that he will go to Peking If circum-
stances demand it and that Prince
Ching and he had full authority from
the Dowager Empress and Emperor to
negotiate settlement with the powers,
explaining that there were no other
commissioners for China.
The Associated Press representative
saw Prince Ching today, thanks to the
courtesy of the Japanese guards. The
Prince said he trusted that in the Inn
mediate future every thing would be
settled satisfactorily. He thought the
treatment of Peking unnecessarily cruel
as was true as regards private proper
-ty. He was thankful, however, that
the Sacred City had been preserved.
He had come to Peking, he said with
full authority from the Emperor to
obtain peace by any necessary sacrifice,
but he felt sure the generosity of the
powers would not exact anything de-
grading to the dignity of China or en-
croaching upon Chinese territory and he
hoped within a month to see the harvest
gathered and homes being rebuilt.

PROPERTY IS NOT EXEMPT.
PAYING REALTY OF CHURCHES
AND SCHOOLS.
Important Opinion of Attorney General
This Morning-Oahu College Case
Must Pay Taxes.

Attorney General Dole this morning
handed to the Governor the following
opinion in regard to taxation of pro-
perty of churches and schools not ac-
tually used for religious and educa-
tional purposes:
Honolulu, September 20. 1900.
To His Excellency, Sanford B. Dole,
Governor of the Territory of Hawaii.
SIR; In regard to the claim of the
Trustees of oahu College for exemption
from taxation, referred to me, l have
the honor to say that an examination OF
authorities shows that the principle is
well settled that unless the terms OF a
statute are explicit to the contrary, a
general exemption of the property OF
educational institutions WIN be con-
fined to property actually and exclu-
sively used by the institution for edu-
cational purposes, and will not include
property owned by the Institution from
which it merely derives an income.
This doctrine was declared to be the
law of these Islands in the case OF
Charles r. Bishop ct al, Trustees of the
Kamehameha school against Charles T..
Gulick, Collector of Taxes, Z Haw. ST.
The exemption was claimed under the
Session Laws of 1886 which exempted
real property belonging TO ." incor-
porated or private schools" without
specifying whether it applied merely to
property in actual use by such schools
for school purposes, or to all property
belonging to such schools.
The Supreme Court held, Mr.. Justice
Dole dissenting, that the language of
the statute not being explicit to the
contrary, the exemption applied only
to property in actual use for educa-
tional purposes.
In 1896 the legislature amended the
statute so that the exemption now reads
real and personal property belonging
tn cd OT fa
and in the actual use of such schools"
I think there is no doubt that the
property of Oahu College. except that
in actual use for school purposes, is
liable to taxation the same as property
! in general.

Attorney General.

President Kruger in Sicily.
LONDON, September 12.-The flight
of President Kruger from what is now
designated as the Vaal River Colony
and his arrival last night at Lorenzo
MARQUEE are regarded here as indica
tive of an early end of the hostilities In
South Africa. Another message from
Lorenzo Marquee says the Transvaal
States officials accompanied President
Krueger into Portuguese territory.
LONDON, September 15.-According
to the LOurenZO Marquee correspondent
of the Daily Telegraph" Mr.. Kruger
is virtually a prisoner in the residence
of the District Governor. This is at the
instance of the British Consul, who pro-
tested against Mr.. Kruger using Por-
tuguese territory as a base for directing
his executive affairs.
The French consul has been forbidden
access to Mr.. Kruger, as have also the
latters own officials. The District Gov
netherlands consul that he, who had
acted as the Boer Consular agent at
Loufenzo Marquee can no longer be
recognized as a representative of the
Transvaal, which is now British terri
tory.

CANE FIRE At PAAOHAU
FLAMES WORK HAVOC ON !
PLANTATION.
Over a Hundred and Thirty Acres
Burned over Before the Laborers
stopped the Fire.

Paauhau plantation was visited by a
disastrous cane fire on Wednesday of
this week. Between 130 and $50 acres
of cane were burned over before the
fire was stopped, entailing heavy loss.
The cause of the fire is not known.
1t burned whole day. while all hands
turned 20 and fought it's advance with
vigor. Great clouds of smoke were seen
from afar and even on Thursday morn
ing, after the fire was out, there was
a heavy cloud over the plantation,
where smoke was rising from the char
red cane.
A sugar cane fire is very difficult to
stop when 1t Cnce gets fair start, as
the cane burns fiercely and stands so
thick in field that fire-fighters have
great difficulty in working. 1t is sus-
pected that some dissatisfied Japanese
laborer set fire to the cane at Paau-
hau, though the managers have not
been able to find out anything about
it, An investigation is being made.
The area burned over represents at
least 800 tons of sugar, when the cane
is full grown.

While this beetle is doing much dam
