PLANS FOR PRIMARIES

Last night the districts committee
appointed by the Republican mass
meeting met In the Chamber of Com
merce room. A number of those elect
ed were absent, but there were plenty
present to make discussion of several
hours length on the proper methods OF
the organization Of the Republican par
ty.
A circular and call to the Republi-
cans OF tho Islands were adopted and
committees of three appointed to
send these cut to representative citi-
zens OF Republican complexion in each
district. A committee Of five was Sc
lected to take charge of the organiza-
ton OF primaries and to report a plan
at the next meeting on Tuesday at 1880
p. m. at the Chamber of Commerce.
When the committee met at 7:3O Ce-
ell Brown was elected chairman unani-
mously and j.. H. Boyd and Clarence
Crabbe tied in vote for secretary.
Boyd withdrew and Crabbe took the
desk. A lengthy argument on the
question OF whether a test of fealty
sfou.d be demanded from those voting
at rae pr snlartcs opened the talk. Va
rious speakers urged differing ideas.
A. 5. Humphreys believed that the par
ty should guard against deception by
maintaining pledge of fidelity to par
ty principles and the nominees of the
convention which every voter should
be compelled to take.
He cited history to show that this
was the best way to manage a cam
paign and that all precedents for wears
past proved 1t was the safest ulan.
George R. Carter antagonized this the
ofy. He said that there were peculiar
conditions existing here A large body
of the population had never been call
ed upon to express an opinion on the
subject Of adherence to Democracy or

Like an Earthquake.

Like an Earthquake.
People living next to the Canavarro
house were first impressed with the
idea or an earthquake, and then, as
they we're more thoroughly awakened
by fear and curiosity, they believed
that a large stand on the veranda,
holding heavy flower pots, had crashed
10 the foor with Its burden OF earthen-
ware.
AS soon as II was discovered where
the explosion had occurred, hastily
dressed men and women hurried to the
Portuguese Consul's house and began
calling oct TO know IL that gentleman
was all right; IL he was injured, what
had happened.
Canavarro called from his room that
he was not hurt, but that an explosion
had occurred and somebody had evi-
IDENTIFY been trying to take his life.
Some OF the Consu's friends, falling
TO see or hear anything of his son,
George, were afraid at first that the
young man had been killed or injured.
lie did not answer the inquiries Of the
little crowd when his father did. When
the excitement abated a little, howev-
er, and Canavarro opened the door for
his friends to enter, the son was found
In his room, more anxious to return to
bed and sleep than to trouble himself
much with what had happened.
A Fiendish Attempt.
IL did not take long for the Consul
and his friends to see that a devilish.
cowardly piece OF work had been done
and that an attempt had been made to
assassinate the Portuguese Consul.
Someone had thrown a bomb at
the house with the intention, doubt
less, OF destroying the building and
killing It's occupants. The Internal ma
chine had fallen and exploded just un-
der the bedroom window OF the Consul,
shattering the lattice work between the
iloOr OF the structure and the ground,
lifting n portion Of the floor near to
the head OF the Consul's bed, smashing
all the windows In one side OF the
house. dlstortlng a lead water pipe,
smashing flower pots. tearing up the
ground and scattering bits OF sheet
ron. the contents OF the bomb, to a
considerable distance around, the sharp
little metal bits penetrating or stick
ing into the woodwork OF nearby
houses.
Police Sent For.
Somebody telephoned for the police
about ten minutes after the explosion,
when ROma Of tho excitpmpnt had

the call as soon aS possible although
considerable delay was occasioned in
their arrival at the scene of the disas-
Ter owing to the fact that the officers
went first to Canavarro's former resi-
uence on Beretania street. When they

men TOOK In the situation and then
proceeded to patrol the streets in the
vicinity on the lookout for suspicious
characters.

mad naturally escaped long before the
police were even telephoned. The Por-
tuguese Consul did not seem tn he
much upset by the nights event. and
LOOK things very easily, showing obso-
iuteiy no fear and begging his friends
10 return to their homes and beds and
announcing 1t as his intention to 90
back to bed himself.

talking about the explosion, and per-

that they distinctly heard the sound
OF the explosion at an early hour in
the morning and wondered at the time
What mad happened.
Scene of the Outrage.
The Canavarro residence is one of
several similar one-story cottages sit
uated on the Waikiki side of Pensacola
street, about half block fnauka of XII
nau street; a white fiagpole stands in
the moderately spacious yard, sur
mounted by blue ball, and the house
IS Wen known as the residence of the
portuguese Consul. The cottage faces
on PENSACOLA street and contains sew
en- rooms. The Consul's bedroom Is To-
Gated on the mauka side OF the build
ing, between his Office in the front of
the mouse and his sons bedroom. There
are three large-paned windows on the
mauka side; the Consul's Is the middle
WINDOW. About thirty feet of yard
separate the Canavarro home from the
next mouse towards the mountains, and
a hedge divides this space in the mid
die the whole length Of the lot. The
mouse Is raised about two feet from the
ground and Is supported on posts rest
ing on stones laid in the ground.
Effect of Explosion.
An Advertiser reporter visited the
scene of the explosion yesterday and
examined the premises and the effects
OF the Internal machine. On the maui
ka side OF the house, Just beneath the
Consul's bedroom window, was where
the damage had occurred. The lattice
work had been blown to pieces for a
space of about eight feet; the post at
that place, which had rested on a fat
stone about ten inches square, had been
forced out from between the sill and
the stone; three OF the floor boards
nearest to the window in the Consul's
room had been raised an inch or two
from the beams and partially splinter
ed; the water pipe leading out from
under the house and connecting with
hose nozzle In the yard, Just below
the window, had been broken, twisted
and in several places plugged with
pieces Of metal which had been con-
tanned in the bomb.
Boxes and flower pots, holding large
ferns. standing in a row along the side
of the house, were in many aseSblown
to pieces, the fragments being scatter
ed all over the mauka side of the yard
and strewn also in the neighboring
premises.
Little pieces of iron and other metal.

EVANSVILLE AND VICINITY.
Delinquent Sales for Taxes Dating
Back to Civil War.

Special Correspondence of The Evening Star.
EVANSVILLE. Nd, December 1s. 1900.
Mr. J. II. Rogers Of this village has pur-
chased "Firwood, one of the most beauti-
full residences here, and at one time
owned by Mr.. S. Aman of Washington.
On the northeast portion of the lot
Mr. Rogers has begun the erection of a
two-story frame building, to be used for
business purposes 1t is understood a large
and commodous waiting room will beg
erected at this point by the City and Sub
urban railway.
James A. Blundon, road commissioner,
has secured an appropriation for bridge
to be built on the Metzerott road leading
from the Washington and Baltimore turn
pike, near Berwyn.
An event of unusual Importance to 3
number of residents Of this county took
place at Marlboro several days ago. Tre as
urer r. H. Ryon sold to the highest bidder
800 or more pieces of real estate which had
been sold to the county commissioners for
delinquent axes at tax sale held in
August, 1898, and which had stood unre-
deemed for more than two years. the statu-
tory limit. Many property holders falling
to meet the tax bill rendered by the county
treasurer, who is also the tax collector,
have, by this sale lost their property. The
advertisement Of the property was great
surprise to those interested for the reason,
1T is said. that successive treasurers Of the
county have rendered tax bills for the
properties sold without any mention of the
tax membranes disclosed at this time.
Innocent owners who hold receipts for year
after year for tax bills were confronted
with tax bill running through the years
of the civil war
1t is predicted that many suits will be
filed by those who have been sold out %
test the constitutionaity of the law author
izing the sale. The county realized about
$4,000 from the properties disposed of. It
is estimated that the real value of the
land sold exceeds 500, 600.
