THE PATRIOTIC
HYMN AMERICA.

Two Meritorious s,anrz. cOatri-
buted TO the Famous Song by
Wellknown Local Writers.
The feature Of the literary exereis.s
yesterday was the two stanzas axidesi
to America contributed By Clarence
u. White and Daniel Logan. They
equal IN the purity and beauty OF their
sentiment the original lines written by
the Rev. Samuel F. Smith As they
have local flavor they should form
part Of the hymn to be sung on all
patriotic occasions hereafter in the
territory.
Mr.. Whites stanza is as follows:
All han this natal ssy,
or new Hawaii mel
With glad acclaim.
Eese may sweet fr-~sssn rss,
On Isles sap-smely hless.
Where geaer writes 90 the West
Her sacred name
Mr.. Logan's stanza runs
These Isles have waited hong.
For thy prOis-tfoH strung
Flag O, the free:
Forever Ger Hawaii.
Bright In the suniit sky,
Greai starry banner ny
Pride Of the SEA
Mrs. Margaret h Reid also contri-
0uted stanza as follows.
Hawal's Isles are free.
She shares the liberty.
Lei her rejoice;
With thee We now unite.
And side by side we'll fight.
For freedom and the right

minutes. Count the beats while sit.
ting and then while standing. A
healthy pulse beats from sixty TO
seventy-fve times per minute, lit
tie faster while standing than while
sitting or lying down. II your pulse
beats too fast or too slow, III II Is
weak or irregular and sometimes
skips a beat, your heart Is weak or
diseased, and you are in danger OF
heart failure at any moment. Pains
about the heart, palpitatiOn, smoth-
ering or fainting spells, shortness OF
breath, inability to sleep on left'side,
are further evidence of a dangerous
condition which demands immediate
attention. You have it in your pow
er to overcome heart weakness II you
will profit by the experience of
others. Mr. S. T. Oviatt, of Arling-
ton, Iowa, says: II had heart fail

HONOLULU TO HAVE A PURITAN
SABBATH
Restaurant Keepers Warned TO Close
at the Legal Hour and All Stores
Must be Shut.

Next Sunday is going to be a very
quiet day in Honolulu. The restau
rants, big and little, have all been or
dered to close up by Z o'clock and
everything else will have to shut up.
Anyone who is down town after seven
o'clock will have to go hungry, and
night workers will have to bring lunch
baskets down town.
The police are going the limit i'm en-
forcing the Sunday laws. -Four more
Chinese storekeepers were brought in
to court this morning and convicted and
fined IS each. David KAPPA went round
last Sunday with an assistant, buying
packages of cigarettes, and he has a
pile of about twenty packs, sales of
which cost the storekeepers So each.
Labor that is needful for the good or
der, health, comfort or safety of the
community is allowed on Sunday, by
the penal code and this might help
the restaurant men but for the plain
provision of another section. This is
322, which expressly commands all res
taurants to close at seven O'Clock on
Sunday evenings. Section 1923 declares
fine of from $40 to 800 for each Of
Tense.
Up to last Sunday all the small stores
have kept open with little or no restric-
tions and restaurants have paid no at
tention to section 322. Now the town is
going to be closed up well enough to
satisfy an old-time Puritan.

the Goodland (Kas), people after the
burning of the Union Pacific train rob-

office several prominent people of the
place went into the room where the
body lay and they sliced off pieces of
flesh from the dead robber as souvenirs
of the occasion. The dead robbers have
been identified positively as the Jones

City Council Moves To
 Raise Money.
HAVE POLICE COURT
City Attorney Requested to Prepare Two City Ordinances--Will Prob ably Appoint Judge Sehlbrede and Marshal Tanner to be Police Judge and City Marshal.

The city council at its special meeting last night requested the city attorney to prepare an ordinance providing for the ap- pointment of a police judge and q city marshal, who will have jurisdiction in matters arising out of city ordinances. Also an ordinance providing for poll tax.
 1t is the desire of the council that the ordinances be prepared for introduction Monday evening.
 The ordinance in relation to the police judge and city marshal will probably not carry any salary other than fees. and it seems to be the intention of the city coun- cil to make Commissioner Sehlbrede police judge, and Deputy Marshal Tanner, city marshal.
 The amendments submitted by the com mittees to the ordinances introduced last Monday, providing for dog tax and for fire protection, were considered generally, but no action was taken. =. i. ae
 There was bare quorum present at the meeting, Sylvester, Green and Laumester being absent.

NOT TfNABLE
Boundary Cannot Be Ten
 Leagues From Sea.
NEW POINT RAISED
Hon. Richard Mansfield White. Who Is Here, Maintains no Mountain Divide or Summit Where Claimed Because of Numerous Streams.

Hon. Richard Mansfield White, of New York, an explorer, mine owner, and life member of the Historical Society of New Mexico and of the Historical Society of Alaska, who is in Skagwav on his way to the interior, makes new point in regard to the Alaskan boundary dispute. He maintains that the line To marine leagues from the sea is crossed by numerous streams, and therefore cannot be the sum init of a range of mountains, and therefore cannot be the boundary which it is sought to locate. Mr. White last evening said:
 Being the son of Richard Grant White. of New York, and having had at hand in earlier days large library, looked into the matters of boundaries, and in partcu- lar that of Alaska. My father also studied the matter, and being friend of William Seward, who bought Alaska, he naturally took an interest in the matter.
 "Of late have also looked into the mat ter, and ind that line between Alaska and Canada al q uistaite@ 6s tes. sinarine leagues from the winding of the coast is crossed by more than thirteen rivers or streams emptving into the Pacific Ocean. between Portland canal and the I4Ist meridian, and that from that fact alone there cannot be summit or divide of drainage nearer than the said ten marine leagues, and therefore the contention of the British that the boundary should ap- preach nearer to the coast than the said ten marine leagues is not tenable.
 Also the summits of the White Pass and Chikoot Pass cannot be taken as the summit of range of mountains which ex- tend in a direction parallel to the coast from the 5oth degree of north latitude to the point of intersection of the I4Ist degree of west longitude, for those summits are not continuous for that length but are only the summts of passes between mountains, locally, and not the summit of such an ex> tensive range of mountains as the treaty contempates. If there are any ranges of mountains al all they lie between and sep arate the rivers running into the Pacific Ocean and are not parallel to the coast. but at almost right angles to the coast"

George N. Wright Goes Out and Joe Wright Steps In-Ninetsen Elm ployes in Postoffice-W Skag- wayans are Doing.

Word comes from Nome that Postmaster Geo. N. Wright formerly of Skagwav has been removed. What the cause for his re- nov al is had not been Teen stated. The information is simply to the effect that Inspector John P. Clum had asked for his immediate resignation, which was forth with delivered. Joe Wright, brother of the removed official was at once installed as acting postmaster.
 W. W. Boscow, writing from Nome to E. H. Hatch of this city. gives informa- tion of many SkaGwayans in Nome not heretofore spoken of. He says:
 "C. w. Everest is here in the freighting business and is making money fast.
 Bert Farrar is also freighting and says he IS clearing SIoo day.
 ''C. s. Moody is here and owns valuable mining property.
 Frank Brooks, formerly cashier for the Pacific Contract Company, is working in the postoffice with many other Skagwav- ans.

The property is on one of the reddish iron stained mountains along the lake.
 "A strike of gold and copper of promise has been made on the west side of the

Aqed Murderer Is Swiftly
 Condemned.
WILL HANG ON OCT. 2
Doomed For the Killing of Herbert Davenport Only a Few Days Ago. Old Man Asks to be Shot Next MOrning--Dramati Scenes.

Alexander King, the old and silver bearded man who murdered Herbert Dav- enport on the Yckon few days ago by shooting him through the heart with a rifle. has been swiftly doomed to death by tribunal of the Yukon Territory.
 The case was called in Dawson Thurs day of last week, and in less than four hours was ended, and the accused sens tenced to be executed October ?.
 It was only a few days ago that the story came out of King having shot Davs enport at Selkirk. Immediately after the shooting. King was arrested and taken di- rect to Dawscn for trial
 The Dawson News in reporting the trial gives three columns of space to the matter. and describes the old man as dramatically reciting before the court his story of the tragedy. When the witnesses were on the stand, the old mana typical and pictur- esque minet-would lean forward eagerly drinking in theiy testimo1N his gray eyes gIeaming nefvolislv and sSpieiouslv, ano smiling and shaking his head now and then in dissent.
 Placed on the stand himself, King gave d somewhat living picture demonstration of how Davenport acted when shot, and took occasion to pronounce the other witnesses perurers because of what he claimed was detects in the details of their testimony.
 King maintained Davenport displeased him in the way he handled the scow, and that Davenport endangered his life.
 The old man Is 54 years of age. He tes- titied he had been in the Yukon country as carly as '87, and had not heard from his relatives in 2s years. He thought he had brothers and sisters In Ohio. He had pros pected many years.
 Justice Craig heard the case. All was still as death when he pronounced sens tence. His Lordship was pale, and spoke clearly, May God have mercy on your soul." he said, and sank back in his chair.
 The condemned cid man leaning forward calmly said ''lt would be just the same, Judge, if you order them to take me out in the yard tomorrow at 10 o'clock and shoot me between the eyes; for prison life does not suit me"
 An officer led the condemned away, the judge leaning on his hands, shook and wept, and the little audience silently dis persed.

Comes to Erect Big Canti-
 lever Structure.
STEEL TO BE HERE SOON
Expert Bates Arrives, and Will Inn mediately Take up the Skilled Work at Switchback Gorge-Trav- elers to be Put In.

William Bates, of the Puget Sound Bridge X Dredging Company, which now has the contract for the building of the big steel cantlever bridge to be put in at Switohback Gorge between Skagway and the summit, arrived on the Topeka. He is to have charge of the erection of the steel, and will be at work within few days.
 The work of making the foundations for the piers for the big structure has been under way for several days, ard is in charge of MT. McDougaI from the Sound.
 The foundations will be set in the solid granite which comprises the sides of the gorge. Clearances and excavations for the foundations are now being made. When finished the piers of concrete will be set, and with the use of cement made as solid and as permanent as though part of the mighty rocks of ages on which they are to rest.
 In the construction of the bridge allow ance has been made, as is customary. for the contraction and expansion of the steel under the effects of heat and cold, but the jarring that may result from earthquakes was not taken into consideration. How ever, there is no fear entertained that the shocks of the earth will be so heavy but what the structure will be sufficiently strong or elastic to withstand what little nervousness the earth has been accustomed to show here at certain times. Division Engineer Alfred Williams yesterday ex- pressed an opinion there is not likely to be any damage to the structure from the quakeS.
 Some of the material for the bridge will be here in few days.
 One of the most important pieces of work Tn the construction of the bridge to be undertaken by MT. Bates will be the erection of large traveller for use in lifting the steel to here it will be set in position in the bridge.
 When finished it will be the finest and most costly of all bridge structures in the North.
