FROM PAUL THE APOSTLE.
Sends Messages to This Wicked World-Three Days in Trance-Abstains From Food And nk-CroSS-examined by
 a News Man.

The Indian population of Douglas Island are in high state of excitement and all because a native woman has been in a trance and imparted some of the knowledge gained while in that state. The English name of the woman is Jennie, and her nativename is Harsh Doc. Sheis a widow, about forty years of age and has five children, three girls and two boys. She lives 9 few doors south of the Douglas Steam Laundry with her children. She has been a christian for three years and belongs to the Friends church of this city.
 Jennie was in a trance for three days last week and she did some talking that caused no end of worry and excitement among the natives on the water front.
 It seems that some high crimes and misdemeanors have been committed by some of the natives and these have been referred to by Mrs. Harsh Doc. Two men were charged with an atro. cious' murder and another was accused of cutting off his brother-in-law's hand.
 A number of church people as well as others went to see the woman last Wednesday night and she got her work in on the crowd in good shape. MT. s. Annett was one of those present and Mrs. Harsh Doc informed him that he was far from being as good as he ought to be, although he has the reputation of being an excellent, conscientious, christian gentleman. There was one native who seemed to be the ideal of this woman and she plainly told the crowd that he was all right.
 A News man went to visit the woman last Thursday evening. William How ard the policeman and interpreter ac- companied him, for she does not speak English Mrs. Harsh Doc was lying in bed looking calm and composed.
 Her oldest daughter, girl of some eighteen years of age was standing by the bed side and seemed worried and careworn, from the constant attendance upon her mother for four days and nights. Aman, a visitor was sitting by the stove toasting his shins and two or three children were sitting near by ab- sorbing the heat that the friendly stove was giving forth in abundance. On the wall, near the foot of the bed was tack ed a picture representing St. Paul preaching to a large number of people.
 It was one of those commonly in use in the Sunday schools and it was so placed that the prostrate woman con- stantly had a good view of it.
 The News man commenced asking questions of the woman as to age, chil- dren and the length of time she had been a member of the church, all of which she promptly answered. She al- so stated that she first went into trance on the preceding Monday and remained in that state about three days. That she quit eating on Mon day but that she would again take some food on the following Saturday.
 That her fasting and eating were controlled by orders from above-that she was receiving messages from St, Paul, who had commanded her to eat on Saturday.

DucIled Him.

Last Wednesday night John Eicher, the pleasant mixographer at the Club, was sleeping soundly in his bed, and dreaming of-we won't tell what.
 Suddenly a large piece of wall paper which had been holding the water that leaked in through hole in the roof, gave way and down came bucket-full or more of the crystal liquid upon the head of the sleeping victim. His pleas ant dreams were rudely interrupted and he awoke with q sensation similar to a dive into the waters of the bay.

Mules and Things.

Bob Burdette gives Senator Petit grew, of South Dakota, another excuse for bIushing. Burdette says: q read how this people have made their name respected in every land, their flag to be saluted on every sea; read how her statesmen sit in the councils of nations and her scholars are reVered in every hall of oflearning. And so read on un- til come down to the history of Da- kota, and there read that a man in Aberdeen wanted everybody to know that he was ashamed of his country God save the mark! Oh, we'll my boy, I once saw Kentucky mare beautiful as a dream, victor in hundred races, sucking mule colt. And 1 have no doubt that sometimes that mule went hee-hawing around the pasture, bawl- ing that he was ashamed of his moth err

HAWAIIAN LAhDs.

WASHINGTON, January I1.-GeneraI
A. S. Hartwell( special agent of the Ha-
waiian Government, presented to Pres
ident Mckinley today statement of
the public land system of the islands
from it's inception to the present time
The statement was prepared by Presi-
dent Dole at the request of this Govern
ment to throw light on the contentious
over land grants.
Attorney Griggs recently de-
cided that under the Newlands reso.
luton passed at the last session of Con-
gress, Hawaiian officials have no au-
thority to dispose of land. This deci-
sion will hold good until Congress shall
pass some legislation on the subject
General Hartwell said today that the
present land laws were designed to
keep the public lands out of the hands
of spectators and to encourage small
settlers. The Cullom and Hit bills,
which are the result of the Hawaiian
Commissions visit to the islands in
1899 have the same purpose.

GUARDS UNDER MARSHAL
POLICE SUPERVISION OF THEM
IN FUTURE.
King and Nuuanu Streets to be Opened.
High Board Fence Will Bound Both
and Enclose Burned District.

Beginning with this afternoon Mar
shall Brown will have direct charge of
the paid guards of the Board of Health
and they will be handled precisely as
are special police. Salaries, however,
will be paid out of the Health appro-
priations and not the police. 1t has
been thought best to have the guards
under more set rules than at present
and to maintain a thorough supervis-
ion over them. This action was taken
by the Board of Health at the meeting
held yesterday afternoon.
King street between Nuuanu and
Nuuanu stream will be reopened just
as soon as a board fence can be built
around the sections of the burned dis
trict. From the corner of King and
Nuuanu the fence will run down on
both sides to the river. The street will
then be treated to a solution of sui
phuric acid and opened. Nuuanu street
will be opened in the same way All
the merchants from the waterfront uD
to the edge of the burned district on
posite Goo Kim's store, except Wing
Wo Tai Company, will be allowed to
resume business after Prof Ingalls, has
attended thoroughly to the work Of
fumigating.
1t was decided to order twelve odor-
less excavators by today's coast steam
er i'm place of four This will give the
department fourteen wagons which it
is believed will be quite sufficient.
j. Wakefield, of Theo. H. Davies &
Company, was appointed to separate
Ierishable merchandise in guaranteed
warehouses. Complaint has been made
that considerable stuff now stored is in
danger of spelling.
The Board of Health yesterday after
noon considered a petition from mer-
chants for a modification of regula-
tons in regard to shipping. 1t was the
! consensus of opinion that no change
should yet be made and the matter
| went over.

40 PLAGUE on KAuAI.

The report that cases of plague have
been discovered at Nawiliwili and Wal
mea, Kauai, is not confirmed by the
officers of the last steamers to come
from that island. The Iwalani was the
last arrival. Purser Christian stated
this morning that he had heard nothing
of any plague at any of the ports on
Kauai, and he did not think plague was
there. Captain Thompson of the w. G..
Hall, which also returned recently,
makes the same report.

LESS PLAGUE IN Japan

The plague situation in Japan was
much improved when the Nippon Maru
left. For nineteen days prior to her
departure from Kobe there had not
been a case there. Only one or two
new cases are reported from Osaka and
other places, so that the vigorous cam
paign carried on by the japanese au-
thorities appears to have had the right
effect.

We safer. A few days ago "a prominent gem
tleman OF Honolulu came rushing down to
the office of the Electric Company and said:
Give me figures for wiring my house, and |
want ~ done at once no more lamps for me.
Last night lamp tipped over and 1t came so
near setting fire to the house and burning my
children and take no.more risks"
=, This is the sentiment of quite a number in
the past few weeks, who have ordered their
houses fitted with the perfect light.
Just think it over and make up your mind
that you want the best and safest light send

We have a complete stock of everything in
