The play over, we were entirely at
liberty to do what we pleased for the
rest OF the day, and some strolled over
to the back side Of the island, where
there Is a view Of the open sea, while
Others preferred to sit quietly In the
shade and tell, not how fields were won,
but how the slip went down at Mount
Desert Ferry. Ia this years excursion
party were nine Of the thirteen Of the
press party who went through the slip
at that time, and It was but natural that
when we once more got together we
should talk It over at uncomfortable
length. can sympathize with the man
who disgustedly remarked: swell, Its
no use to get into that crowd unless you
were In the Mount Desert Ferry acci.

DIE only once In Q lifetime, and you
can't stop them from talking about 1t

Most Of the party returned to the city

The death bed confession Of Rev.
Gibson, a minister of California, as
reported in the press, to the effect
that he was the murderer of Misses
Blanche Lamonte and Minnie Will
liams, for which crime Theodore
Durant was hanged few years ago,
is only another evidence that it is
not always safe to inhict capital
punishment where only circumstan
tial evidence points to the guilt OF
the accused party. Durant was a
young man whose reputation had
been good up to the time he was ac-
cused of this diabolical crime, and
throughout the long, tedious trial
and the subsequent ordeal of his
sentence and execution he protest
ed his innocence. His own mother
and the minister who took his last
dying statement protested that an
innocent man had been executed.
Rev. Gibson, whose recent coDfes-
sion clears up the mystery, was a
witness against Durant. He not
only committed the crime for which
Durant suffered but helped to send
Durant to the gallows.

Honolulu, July 2-Via San Fran
cisco, July 1O.-It is to the colored
people of the Southern states that
the plantation owners of the Ha-

the matter of the vexed labor ques-

day for the Southern states in quest
of negro laborers. They have as
surance that three or four hundred
can be recruited at New Orleans.
The plantation will pay their ex-
penses to this country and give
them $50 a month. If enough ne
gro labor can be secured the ser
vices of the Japanese will be dis
pensed with altogether.

TRANsvAAL LOSS OF LIFE,

Morahsts are discussing the ter
rible loss of life brought about by
the Transvaal war. Yet here life is
sacrificed for a purpose-tor an hon
est principle. 1t were better to
preach against the needless sacri
hce of life. Thousands of people
succumb to ailments which might
easily have been checked in the be-
ginning, Dyspepsia carries off more
people than are killed in war. The
use of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
would save many lives. Constipa-
tion may seem a little thing, but it
invariably develops into something
worse, and the longer it is allowed
to run, the harder it is to cure. The
bitters cures Indigestion, constipa-
ton, dyspepsia and biliousness, nat
urally and permanently, without
shocking the system. 1t is good for
everybody.

President Diaz has again been
chosen to rule over the destiny of
Mexico. He is now 70 years old, 43
of which he has given to Mexico as
an officer or soldier. He feels that
a younger man would be better for
the place, and so states, but adds
that he will serve his country as
long as it is the unanimous desire
of the people. President Diaz has
given the Mexicans good admins
tration, has peopled his country
with Europeans who have developed
the mines, built railroads and
opened the country to coffee cult
vation, If future administrations
are as liberal when Diaz is no more,
Mexico will continue to prosper.
