HertZog was last reported at Van Wyk's Wei. kritZin- gers commando is still divided.

III Alleged Mutiny at Honolulu.

The Treasury Department has inves
tigated the report of mutiny among
Porto Ricans on the steamer Ke Au
Hou in the harbor of Honolulu bound
for sugar plantations on the Island of
Maui in January, and finds it to have
been highly exaggerated One of the
Porto Ricans, while under the influence
of liquor, threatened the master of the
vessel with a knife. The master, who
was somewhat timid, instead of confin-
ing his man in cabin, put back to
Honolulu and asked the police to take
the man ashore. AS this man had mon
ely belonging to other Porto Ricans,
they objected to his being sent ashore
and a policeman was brought on board
to protect the captain until Maui was
reached, when the only Porto Rican in
volved in the trouble sobered up and
the so-called "inutiny" ceased.-Wash-
ington Star, Ma arch 81.

STOCKTON. March 23.-Negotiations
We're completed today for the establish

and others have subscribed $4,000 and
have purchased block of land adjoin-

will be turning out fifty tons of ice
every twenty-four hours.
During the past three or four years
several companies have been organized
to Guild ice plants here, but none ever
broke ground, as the ice combine sub
sidized them; but those who are inter
ested in this company say positively
that they will not sell out and intend to
make fight for business. Joseph Mar

Many a mother of a peevish, rest

ARE MOLOKAI
NATIVES IN NEED?
DR.. Mouritz States That Destitu-
ton Prevails on LeeWard
Side of Island.

Destitution prevails upon the leeward
side of Molokai, according to state
ments contained in letter from Dr.
Mouritz to the Board of Health. IN
making a request for the appointment
of subsidized" physician for the dis
trict in which he resides, he states
that he has been treating nearly 500
patients since last fall and has re-
ceived no compensation from them, as
most of them are natives, and unable
to pay even the smallest fee
r DR.. Mouritz further asserts that
these people can barely obtain the
necessities of life, and he asks that the
Board of Health make an effort to
have paid physician supplied for that
portion of the Island. His letter reads
as follows:
Pukoo, Molokai March 81
l beg to suggest that the Board of
Health send a physician to this dis
trict, as there is considerable illness,
and consequent misery and suffering,
the greater part of which [ am unable
to attend. Since last fall l nave treat
ed over 500 people without fee or any
compensation, as the native Hawaii
ans have difficulty in procuring food,
let alone pay a physician. Patients
within a mile or two Of my residence
[ can pay occasional visits on foot
beyond that they remain practically
Unattended. There are many uncerti-
fled and unvaccinated school children,
possible lepers, requiring an examina-
ton, and many other matters falling
within the province Of an official phys
ician, and I cannot attend to it.
