London April > 1 a. m.-Intense excitement
has been aroused by the news Of the attempted
assassination Of the Prince Of Wales at the
Nord Railway Station, in Brussels At first
there was a general tendency 10 discredit the
report but when it was officially confirmed by
notice posted at the Mansion House last night
the utmost Indignation was expressed, more
especially II was felt that the outrage was
attributable 70 the anti English agitation on
the Continent. which has become so pronounced
since the outbreak OF war in South Africa and
which has been fOstered by foul articles which
have for months past disgraced the columns Of
the Belgian press. Even the leading newspa-
psrs Of Brussels have not hesitated 10 publish
scurrilous articles in abuse of England and the
English The minds Of the Belgian people have
also been poisoned by some Of the gutter prints
from Paris. The Petit Journal" which suffers
from chronic AngIophobia- enjoys a large circu-
lation throughout Belgium, while the notorious
earcarures Of La Rira" which have been
stopped by the police in Paris, still find ready
sale in Brussels and Antwerp. The young ap-
prentice who desired 10 murder the Prince Of
Wales because Of the action Of the British Gov
er1rnent in South Africa was no doubt unaware
OF the fact that His Royal Highness was about
as much responsible for the Boer war as was
the Shah 0f Persia.
When the news OF the outrage spreads
throughout the country this morning the feel

inanktuness, not only for the escape OF the
Frinoe, but also for the fact that the Queen is

THE SOCIETY IS FORMED
AGRICULTURISTS IN WORKING
SHAPE.
Organization and Speeches at the High
School Last Evening-President Dole
Speaks.

The Hawaiian Agricultural Society
met at the High School last evening
and perfected organization. Allan Her
bert presided. 7. II. Gibson, for the
committee, reported the constitution
and bylaws, which were adopted unan-
imously. These laws are based on the
regulations of the old Agricultural So
ciety which was born and flourished
from 1850 to 1858.
w. A. Bryan, ornitholOgiSt and tax
idermist at Bishop Museum, Was the
first speaker. His talk was on natice
and imported birds, and the effect of
each upon agriculture. He advocated
carefully investigating the destructive
ness of the mynah bird and the rice bird
and comparing this with their useful
ness in the determination of undesira-
BILE bugs. 1t was the off-hand opinion
of the specialist that the credit balance
would be on the side of the birds.
Miss Allen read a most interesting
paper on the subject of a girls indus
trial school showing how such could
easily be established on the site of the
present reformatory school which is
soon to be removed.
Col. VIII E. Fisher spoke earnestly
and impressively on the subject of small
farms in the Islands.
Byron O. Clark gave details of the
work being carried on by the California
one drawback was the number of pests,
including cut worms, but he believed
these would soon be exterminated. The
work at Wahiawa was no longer eXper-
mental
Christian Andrews spoke of forest
fires on the other side of the Island.
H. r. Hanna talked of artesian wells
and the water supply.
Prof. Edgar Wood referred at length
to the work the normal school was do
ing in the agricultural line, and advo-
eating more extensive industrial train
ing in the schools.
President Dole was the principal
speaker. He treated the general sub
iect of agriculture in the Islands, say
| ing that the safety and well being of
the country's social and political life
depended largely on the establishment
of small farms which carried with them
| the homes and schools and healthful
| influences. He referred to the California
| colony and said that he believed II
would succeed. Everyone should en-
courage this colony. The Government
intended doing so.
! At the conclusion of the meeting ev-
cry one present Joined the society; some
as life members, paying fee of $50.

OBJECTION TO EsTEE.
His Record in Radicalism Brought Up
Against Him.

WASHINGTON, May IA new fight
appears to have started against the APP
pointment of NJ. M. Estee of California,
for the United States District Judgeship
of Hawaii. His nomination was all
made out at the White House and
would have been sent to the Senate to-
day by the President, but for the fact
that objection was made, and Mr.. Es-
tees record brought up against him.
Allegations are made that long ago he
was a member of the dolly Vardens,"
who lost California to the Republicans.
Then, in 1894, when Debs was hurting
anarchistic firebrands, it is alleged Es-
tee sided with Debs and his followers
against the railroads. This Is cited as
showing that Mr.. Estee has an anarch-
istic streak i'm his character, which in
capacitates him from properly eXercis-
ing judicial functions in times of great
excitement. Mr.. Estee still has a bet
ter chance than any other Californian,
but this development is likely to give
the appointment to "a man from another
State,
