THE FLYIEG JoRDANs.
A Big Show in Big Tent Will Come
TO Town This Week.

After a long interim, Honolulu is
once again to revel in a tent show
The Flying Jordans, who appeared here
with considerable success some years
ago, will arrive in the city the end of
the week with a vaudeville combina-
ton OF acrobats, comedians, singers
jugglers and clowns to open a weeks
to China and the northern seas. The
range of the acrobatic performances
being too large for the average theater
the Jordans will rear their canvas city
on the Drillshed grounds and give
their entertainment in an enormous
tent over one hundred feet square.
The enterprising youth of the city may
enjoy the privilege of all American
boys, and learn to squeeze under the
canvas for a peep at the rare show
The peanut man and the vendor of
circus lemonade will have a heyday Of
their own, and all Honolulu will turn
out to the novelty of a performance
under canvas
A large tent is quite an ideal theater
for a tropical climate, ana promises

era House and the Orpheum lack
Aside from the Jordans, a quartet Of

AS foretaste of the sensations
within, high diver, named Seabury,
will give a free performance nightly
outside the tent, and literally astonish
the natives by taking a back somer-
sault from a ninety-foot pole into a
tank of water six feet deep. This de-

is to form a free advertisement, and

NETWORK TRIBUNE ILLUSTRATED SUPPLEMENT-

Mr.. MumfOrd deals more especially with rugs
as floor coverings, but he cannot forget that in
the East they have for centuries also been en-
ployed hangings and for divans and tables.
He remembers, moreover. that to the Oriental
rug has from time immemOrial meant largely
what painting and sculpture mean to the West
He therefore considers the rug not simply as
utilitarian adjunct of household furnishing, but
as a work of art. Somewhere in its bewilderins
intricacies of design there doubtless lurk eie-
ments of mystical import, motives which SYM
bolze religious and other ideas On this point
however, it is futile to dwell at any great length

FINDING IN THE
 CHILEAN CLAIMS
The Commission Completes Its Work Relative to the Seiz-
 ure of the Itata

Washington. June 1.-The United completed it's work today The last case to be decided was that involving for seizure in 1891 of the Chilean vessel Itata by the authorities of the United States on the ground that she was car rying a cargo of contraband arms to Chile. The claim was for f44,051 with interest and was made by the South American Steamship Company, which had chartered the ship to the Chilean government. The decision of today dis misses the case. Minister Pioda, of Switzerland, president of the commission and Mr. Gage, the American commits sioner agreed in this view while Minis ter Vicuna, of Chile, dissented. The commission sums its findings as follows
 1. That the damage alleged by the plain tiffs was not occasioned by an unjustifi- able action on the part of the United States; that the Itata was not pursued by the naval authorities of the United States upon the high seas into Chilian waters, induced to surrender by display of superior force and brought back under duress.
 2. That the Itata was voluntarily placed at the disposal of the United States by the provisional government of Chilli.
 3. That there was probable cause for the detention of the Itata at Sandiego by the authorities of the United States, and therefore no wrong was done
 A. That the claims has brought suit in the courts of Chili against the govern ment of Chiii to recover damages upon the identical claim that is here set up against the United States; that the com pany has recovered judgment thereon and that these judgments have been paid to the company by the government of Chilli The case must therefore be dis missed Another case was that of the Central and South American Company against Chili growing out of tax of two cents on messages levied during the uprising of 1891. The commission award ed 5000 damages during the sessions of the commission there have been seven teen cases against Chili and two against the United tSates. The total American claims against Chili were s3,40O,00O and of this BPS, ,662 or .0S4 per cent has been awarded by the commission. The two Chilian claims against this government were the Itata case. disposed of today, and that of Richard Trumbull, who was awarded 5000 for services to the United States legation Tn Chilli in an extradition case some years ago.

Tuscaloosa, June 17.-(Special.)-A great deal of interest has been taken in the de- cision handed down by the Supreme Court relative to suit for damages carried up from this county by the Tuscaloosa Wa ter Works Company. L. l.. Herring,
 while employed by the defendant com- pany, fell down the steep steps at the pumphouse of the company and was rem dered lifelong cripple in both lower and upper limbs. He sued for damages and was given the full amount asked for by him by the jury in the lower court.

 My ordinance to allow white women to vote created shock, and many thought I was joking" said MT. Craig to your correspondent today, but I am quite se- rious It may be fifty years before we have another Constitutional Convention, and who can say that in that time 1t will not be necessary to let women vote? Elf ty years ago no one dreamed that women would be holding the positions they now hold and the time may come when wo- men will need the ballot for their pro- tection and that of the State. It is only our exalted idea of women which makes us think that giving them the ballot would degrade them, but 1t Is all a mistake and Senator Morgan agrees with me that wo- men never have been and never will be degraded by the use of the ballot'

 MT. Graham of Talladega introduced a resolution to extend thanks to the Vest ern Railway of Alabama and the Mobile and Ohio Railroad for courtesies ex- tended the convention. The rules were suspended and this resolution passed.
 Gov. Jones then arose to a question of personal privilege. He referred to his vote opposing a resolution condemning an editorial in the Advertiser. and stated that he had heard it said that he was the author of the editorial and that he wished to deny 1t. He had never yet written anything criticising anybody without signing his name to it.
 A motion to adjourn was then made by MT. Willet of Pickens This motion was lost.
 The House then took up the discus sion of Article thirteen of the report by the committee on executive. This de- fines the manner of passing bills and how passed over the governors veto. On Saturday when this section was under discussion MT. Lowe of Jefferson had moved to recommit it to the committee with instructions to eliminate that fea- ture which allowed the governor in dis approving a bill to return it to the House with a suggested amendment which if adopted would remove his ob- jections.
 MT. Jones, as chairman of the commit tee, said the House should give it In structons exactly how they wished it amended. Some discussion ensued be- tween Gov. Jones and MT. Lowe as to the effect of his motion to recommit. Gov. Jones then moved to adjourn, 1t being within a few minutes of the reg ular adjourning hour This motion was adopted. and the House adjourned until 10 o'clock tomorrow.
