he was attracted to the territory OF.
Minnesota, aud entered lands in LIE

years following. The year after
coming to Minnesota he returned to
his native country and gathered to-

join with him in helping to build up
the resources of Minnesota, one of
the party being his future bride.
The wedding occurred at Buffalo,

WHEN SHOULD MEMBERS BE
PAID MILEAGE?
The House Makes a Liberal Interpret
tation of the Organic Act and Re-
munerates Itself Accordingly.

A question of ethics, namely, whether
representatives should be paid mileage
when they had not actually Travelled
over the distance between Honolulu and
their respective districts was the first
matter for serious discussion in the
House of Representatives this morning.
The question arose whether or not the
Treasurer should acknowledge war
rants so drawn, and upon this followed
lively discussion. BY some it was
held that only those representatives
who had actually been home durin~ the
period between the two sessions should
be remunerated. Others claimed that
the strict letter of the law was not to
be observed, and that those representa-
tives who remained in this city pending
the calling of the extra session, were
entitled to their fees, without any ques-
tions or bubbles being raised in regard
to the matter.
Chairman Makainai said that he had
advocated the Withholding of mileage,
on the grounds that most of the MEM
bers had remained in Honolulu during
the interim between the regular and
the extra sessions. Makekau objected
to the opinion of the chairman of the
Committee on Public Accounts, and
read the Organic Act to substantiate
his position, which declares that each
of the members shall be entitled to $40C
for every regular session and 5000 for
each extra session in addition to mile
age at the rate of ten cents a mile,
each way, for each session.
Emmeluth laid aside his magnifying
glass long enough to say that the mat
ter of mileage was one of conscience
While it could be demanded even wher
the distance between the districts of the
representatives and Honolulu was moi
actually Travelled, at the same time
while the demand was technically legal
from a moral standpoint, it was a rait
on the public funds.
Makekau further continued, by de-
claring that the representatives did no
care for mileage but the United States
( Government had so framed it's laws
that the representatives We're forced tC
take the stipend. The motion, wher
voted upon was adopted unanimously

THEE MAKES RICH HAUL
GETS NEARLY $500 FROM THE
REMINGTON AGENCY.
No Clue to Perpetrator of Crime.
Broke Open Desk and Abstracted All
the Money

"A peculiar burglary was discovered
this morning in witch nearly $500 was
secured. The victim of the robbery
was the local agency of the Remington
Typewriter company. While there is
scarcely the slightly trace of the rob-
Der the affair was beyond any doubt
committed some time between 6 o'clock
Saturday afternoon and this morning
when the store was opened.
j. II. Harrison the manager of the
agency has his office and salesroom in
the store of the Pacific Cycle Company.
On Saturday he and his stenographer
left the office about o'clock. Before
leaving Mr.. Harrison placed about 5000
in cash, in gold, silver and currency,
in a small pasteboard box in the top
drawer of one of the patent typewriter
desks. These desks open and shut with
some patent arrangement. The robber
broken open the desk in which the mo-
ney was deposited and secured the
treasure.
Mr.. Harrison discovered the loss this
morning. The burglary was reported
to the police and Detective Kaapa was
detailed to investigate the matter.
Just how the entrance to the store
was secured is a matter of conjecture
Keys to the place were possessed by
only two or three persons. 1t is possi-
BILE that the robber may have secreted
himself in the store during the after
noon and committed the theft Satur-
day night after everybody else had
gone. Entrance may also have been
secured with the aid of skeleton key
or else through the front transom. An
examination of that place disclosed the
fact that it was open and the thief
might have gotten into the place by
that way.

MATTER OF CONSCIENCE BIG SHIPS At KAHQU|
STEAMSHIP HAWAIIAN ARRIVES
FROM FRISCO.
The German Ship H. F. Glade Arrives
$50 Days From Bremen-Goes to
Kaanapali-Other Shipping.

KAHULUI, May 1.-THE barkentine
]. l.. Eviston has q full load of sugar,
and she will probably depart for San
Francisco tomorrow, in case 1t does not
blow as hard as it is blowing now. The
tug Leslie Baldwin will probably tow
her out to sea. The ship Henry Failing
is now nearly discharged of her cargo
which she brought from New York. The
steamer Hawaiian after discharging
her cargo for Kahului, will take about
1000 tons Of sugar, and then proceed to
Honolulu, with the other part of her
cargo. The Hawaiian is of the same
size as the American, which was here
about three months ago. The Hawai-
ian is the first big steamer that comes
to Kahului direct from San Francisco
without touching any other port.
The German ship H. F. Glade Cap
tain Haesloop, arrived off Kahului last
Monday. a little over $50 days from
Bremen Germany. The Glade is bound
for Kaanapali, having been chartered
by Messrs. Hackfeld & Co. but as La
haina is not a port of entry, she came
to Kahului to enter at the custom
house. She received a wireless message
to wait at Kahului until one of Hack
field &S Co.'S agents would arrive on the
Kinau. She entered at the custom
house, and was ready to proceed to
Kaanapali on Wednesday but as the
wait another day, and sailed for her
destination yesterday, in charge of E.
Krueger, acting as pilot. The Glade
has a big lot of machinery on board,
and among other things, she brought
a launch which will be used more as
little freight carrier, judging the
shape of this launch.
The American-Hawaiian steamship
Hawaiian arrived at Kahului Yesterday
morning, in command of Captain Ban
! field. The big freighter was siphted
at 6:30 in the morning, and at o'clock
| the tug Leslie Baldwin went out to
meet her. The steamer steamed slowly
| into the harbor of Kahului, where she
| was safely moored. The Hawaiian has
load of heavy machinery to be land
ed at Kahului and from here she will
| take about 1000 tons of sugar. She
made the trip from San Francisco in
nine days, having left San Francisco
on May Z. DR.. Weddick, the duaran-
| tine officer on Maui, boarded the Ha-
waiian just as she was entering har-
bor and found everything in order with
no sickness aboard.
The Hawaiian brought machinery
and building material for the new
| Spreckelsville mill After unloading
/ tfIis she will steam to Honolulu and un-
| load construction material FOR the
| Young building.

SALARIES ARE REDUCED
THE HOUSE MAKES SWEEPING
CUTS.
Attorney General, Department of Pub
lie Works and the Territorial Trea-
surer are Materially Affected.

The cutting of salaries caused con-
siderable interest in the House this
forenoon. After a sleepy hour and a half
the body suddenly awoke when the
matters of renumerating those holding
public offices was taken up.
The first step was that of accepting
Dickey's motion to reduce the salaries
of the attorney general, the head of the
Department of Public Works and the
Treasurer, from $4,000 to $4,000 per an
mum.
Robertson made strong speech
against the proposed step. To obtain
competent officers he said, the Terri
tory must offer salaries of sufficient
magnitude to induce men of ability to
step aside from the paths of civil life,
and take upon themselves the duties
of public officers
Kaniho replied by stating that the
only way to make both ends meet for
the present was to cut salaries all
along the line. Those standing high in
authority should have reductions in
their salaries as well as those under
them. Such a time as this was a test
of patriotism and not time to see
who could obtain the largest periodical
allowance.
The same idea was carried still fur
ther by Makainai. He had the interest
of the roC is and bridges at heart. IL
the offioerS of the Territa my were paid
what they thought they ought to- get
and the customary appropriations Were
made to the leper settlement and the in
sane asylum, the roads and bridges OF
the territory would languish.
In order that the expense account oi
the Territory of Hawaii might be re-
duced, and in order that the officers
might be filled by competent men, Mon
sarrat suggested that the services OF
deputies and assistant CLERKS be done
away with. Makekau took up the same
line of argument when Monsarrat had
concluded, and said that if no other
method could be borrowed, If necessary
| let the money be borrowed. Governor
/ Dole had outlined loan bill which the
House had spurned with contempt
Now, the very men who had rejected
| the suggestion of the chief executive
were raising a cry because the territory
was short of funds, yet they offered NJ
substitute. The only way to help mat
! ters would be to pass a loan bill OF
some sort during the present session.
The matter of allowing a salary OF
| $1,000 to an assistant clerk for the Lane
| Commissioners, also salary of $1,000 70
salary to the Land clerk of the first dis
trict, was referred to a special com
mittee.
The hour of ~ o'clock having arrived
a recess was taken until o'clock.

ARE We ALL GONG CRAZY?
SEVEN COMMITMENTS THUS FAR
IN MAY.
More Than Twice as Many Patients at
Asylum as Five Years Ago-One
Committed Today.


Are we all going crazy :
It would seem so--that is, If figures
never lie. During the eighteen days of
the month OF May seven persons have
been comnTittedTto the asylum for the
insane from the city of Honolulu. This
is almost up 10 the tuberculosis record
Considering that Honolulu has a popu-
lation of only 39999 the figures seem alb
normally large During the eighteen
days referred to the following have
been sent to the asylum:
Manuel Ramos, Portuguese.
Joseph Silva Alves, Portuguese.
John Piki, Hawaiian.
John Reid, American formerly a
hack driver.
Annie Lopa, Hawaiian-P Portuguese.
Joe Richardo CantairO, Porto Rican.
Herman BetZalt, German.
There are in the asylum today 133
persons 102 of whom are males and
only 81 females. AS the disparity be-
tween the sexes in the general popu-
lation is among Asiatics, and there are
few Asiatics in the asylum, a solution
of this difference is not found there.
The number of persons in the asylum
is nearly twice that of five years ago.
Eighty was the maximum number for
years. Recently the hundred mark was
passed and it has rapidly swept up to
third of the way to another hundred
Herman BetZalt was examined Satur-
day morning by DR.. Emerson and sent
to the asylum. A number of witness
were questioned in regard to the case
II. A. Isenberg, acting for the German
consul, was present at the hearing.
