APPEAL b1 ROBERTS
He Calls for Five Thousand
More Volunteers.
AUTHORITIES INCREASE THEIR EFFORTS
British Offensive Operations Have Ceased for
the Present-Martial Law Proclaimed
Throughout Cape Colony.

London, Jan. l9.-Lord Roberts.
who was entertained priavtely at q
dinner last evening by United Service
Club. the guests including the Prince
Of Wales, the Duke Of York, the Duke
OF Cam bridge and some 800 officers.
has issued from the war office a stir.
ring appeal to the c>.intry for q
prompt response to the call for 5000
yeomanry. whose past services IN South
Africa he highly commends to the
gratitude of the nation.
The authorities continue to hold
hopeful view regarding the South Afri.
can situation. but they seem to recog.
nize that vigorous measures are neces-
sary. The proclamation of marital
law throughout the whole of Cape
Colony, Lord kitchener's strong meas
ures aaginst the population of the re.
publics, the placing on reduced rations
of the wives OF men In the field, and
similar measures, go to show that there
is heavy work.
British offensive operations have
ceased for the present. 1t is supposed
Lord Kitchener is collecting his
strength for final effort to crush or to
capture the commandos by q repetition
of the tactics which caused the SUR
render of General Cronje ard General
Prins Loo. 1t is alleged that the
Beers who are concentrating at Caro-.
lima and Ermole are preparing to de.
scend into Natal.
The casualty list issued yesterday
shows that the Beers have released 297
British who we're captured at Helvetia
and Belfast. The facts regarding the
capture ut Belfast have not been al.
lowed to transpire.
1t is asserted that more heavy naval
guns will be landed at the Cape. In
formation as to the doing of the in.
vaders is hard to obtain, hut # is clear
that they are getting very little help
from the Dutch. Twice they attempted
to capture Barley East, but both
times they were repulsed. For three
days they occupied Sutherland. but
they cleared out on the approach OF
the British. Some scattered parties
are reported operating in different
parts. Apparently the invaders aban.
doned the idea Of attacking Clan viii.
liam ON finding the town we'll defend
ed. A commando of 1000 has been
active in the Richmond district, but
there the Beers have secured only 100
Dutch recruits.

FORMER HONOLULU HACKMAN
FINED AT SEATTLE.
Convicted of Forcing Woman to Lead
Life Of Shame-she Claimed He Took
Her in Honolulu.

Charles Leonard, a well known hack
man of Honolulu, has gotten into an
ugly scrape at Seattle. on December
10, he was tried on a charge of forcing
a woman to lead a life of shame. He
was found guilty and fined 800 and
appealed the case
The name of the woman was Edna
White and from her testimony al the
trial, Leonard was a pretty hard pro-
position. Much of her testimony was
of such a character as to be improper
for publication, it implicated Leonard
to serious extent. She claimed that
Leonard had forced her and a woman
named Alice McCauley, to lead lives Of
shame and to contribute the greater
part of their earnings to him.
This alleged impure life was led in
Vancouver Honolulu and Seattle.
Leonard had permitted the woman
White to board at his house both in
Honolulu and Seattle and had charged
her such an exorbitant price that she
was practically penniless. He had held
her trunk.
Leonard took the stand and denied
some of the woman's charges. He ad-
mitted that he had kept her trunk but
claimed that it had been held in lieu
Of $50 which he had advanced her to
travel from Honolulu to the Coast. He
also said that he had allowed her to
bOdIu Win MS ldullly Wnlle III ltOHO-
lulu and Seattle.
William Mckenzie. an alleged sea
captain, and j. McCohn, both of whom
had known the defendant, they claim
ed, in Honolulu, testified as to his good
character The fellow was found guilty
of being a disorderly person and fined
500.
The conviction of Leonard on such
a charge, caused little surprise to the
police here. He is well known to the
{ local authorities and they give him
anything but a good reputation Meth
er the White woman, whose true name
| Is Mrs. Sullivan, nor Alice McCauley
are known to the Honolulu police. The
( officers say that Leonard bore the rep
utation of being a disreputable hack
driver who made a speciality of taxi
| ing his pattons to see immoral women.
He left here about six months ago, but
| SO far as is now known, there was no
cause for his departing other than his
personal interests.

TOPPLED OVER A CLIFF.
NATIVE FISHERMAN MEETS WITH
TRAGIC DEATH.
Thought to Have Been Siezed With
Heart Painting Spell and Fallen Into
a Maui Gulch.

News of a fatal accident at Maka-
makaole gulch, district of Wailuku was
brought today. Null a native fisher
man. met a tragic death by falling
over cliff while going to fish. Death
must have been instantaneous, as he
fell some distance and the skull was
terribly fractured by striking against
"a sharp rock.
High Sheriff Brown was informed
officially Of the accident. Null had
been subject to heart fainting spells.
on Thursday, December 20, he started
out on fishing expedition, but was
siezed by one of the attacks and re-
turned home. He started on the fol-
lowing day and as nothing was learn
ed of him for several days a search
was begun.
In an almost inaccessible spot in
Makamakaole gulch the body was
found on Friday, December %. The
skull was lying against rock, face up
ward. The fracture was very bad.
Other portions of the body were in
jured.
There was nothing to indicate foul
play. a trail showed mans foot print
leading to the edge of the cliff above
the spot where the body was found.
There We're no evidences of any other
person having walked to that spot nor
were there signs of a struggle or any
suspicious circumstance. The officers
were inclined to the theory that the Nj
uli had walked to the edge of the cliff
intending to make his way to the water
below to fish, but was attacked by one
of his heart faintng spells and toppled
over the edge of the gulch.
The body was buried where it was
found.

cided the sea to be too rough to venture
inside to the anchorage so steamed on
to Hanamaulu. The sea was reported
very rough along the Kilauea coast.
On the return voyage the weather was
squally. At Eleele, - the schooner
Churchill is dischargfng' coal and the

CAPT KESSEL a BENEDICT.

Captain William Kessel of the bark
Alden Besse surprised his many friends
i'm this port when he announced yester-
day afternoon after his arrival from the
coast that he h'd taken unto himself a
wife while in San Francisco. He was
married to Miss Clara Thumann at
Oakland on November 2l. He had in
tended bringing his bride down to Ho-
nolulu on the present trip but did not
do so on account of apprehending rough
weather. 1t was well that he left her
home for she would have had an un-
pleasant trip. From December l6 to
December 20, the vessel had to be hove
to on account of the strong southerly
gales and heavy seas. On Christmas
day, Captain Kessel sighted a full rig
ged ship standing about 20 miles away
to the northeast from where he was off
Makapu Point. The ship appeared to
be i'm some trouble for all sails were set
on the main mast but only the fore san
