SAD CASE AT COLUMBIA.
Charleston Woman Driven TO shop
lifting for Snke of Her Children.

Charleston Woman Driven to Shop
lifting for Sake of Her Children.
Columbia, S. c., Nov. 22.--One of the
saddest cases that the police here have
had to handle in some time has been
worrying the officers for several days.
It seems that there was no doubt that
a neatly dressed woman, apparently
about "a years of age, who came from
Charleston, had been guilty of shop
lifting at several dry goods houses
here. On Thursday the police depart
ment decided to send Special Officers
Thackham and Strickland to Charles
ton to arrest the woman and bring her
here. These officers did arrest the wo-
man at her home in Charleston and
yesterday they brought her here, hav-
ing found articles in her house, show
ing that it was she who was wanted
She gave her name as Mrs. Julia E.
Riggs. She was neatly dressed and
showed in her manner that she was
not what conditions indicated. Soon
after her arrest she told the
officers a sad story. Mrs. Riggs
husband is confined in the state hos
pital here. She has young children at
home, two being almost invalids. She
had been supporting herself and the
children by taking in sewing. Finally
work failed and starvation seemed to
be staring her in the face. In her des
peration she came here with a lady
friend, and while her friend was shop
ping she was seized with the idea that
she might help her children by taking
some articles from the stores visited
When the facts became known to the
merchants yesterday they agreed not
to prosecute the unfortunate mother
provided she could return the articles
or their equivalent. The police inter-
ested themselves in her behalf and
communicated with those in Charles
ton who knew her and before evening
all the losers had been satisfied.

UNIVERSITY BOYS FINED.
Tried to Paint Lucy Cobb Goats in
Midday-Four Members of Foot
ball Tenn Dropped.

bail Team dropped.
Athens, Ga. Nov. 22.-From a time
when the memory of man runneth not
to the contrary. it has been a custom
among the freshman at the university
to treat the famous Lucy Cobb"
goats to coat of paint whenever uni
versity athletes won victory on the
gridiron or diamond. However, the
goats have, of late, been badly in need
of a smearing, and the class of 1905
have been waiting in vain for Geor-
gia to defeat her opponents on the
gridiron. So yesterday a band of five,
armed with paint and brushes, paid
a visit to the institute-not at mid
night as they have always done-but,
in broad daylight-at midday. The
police were summoned by telephone
and succeeded in catching the culprits.
who were fined $40 each and made 10
apologize to the principal at the insti-
tute. The young men all belong to
prominent families in the state, and
the affair has occasioned much COM
ment here.
A serious shake up in university ath-
letics has resulted from the expulsion
of several of the members of the foot
ball team. The charge against them
Is breaking training" The students
uphold the coach of the team in his
action, though they know that the loss
of the four players will be sorely felt
in the contest with Auburn on Thanks
giving Day, for the men were tower
of strength to the team.
The Italians, the Dramatic Club of
the university, will shortly present
their farce, "Shylock,' for the benefit
of the Athletic Association. Promi-
nent in the cast, are Mr.. Neyle Col
quit and Mr.. Paul Jette. both of Sa-
vannah, who interpret the lines of
Shylock and Tubal. respectively. The
ITALIAN performance is always one of
interest, and is the occasion for the
gathering of many alumni.
The alumni catalogue of the uni
versity is out. 1t presents neat ap-
pearance, the colors of the university
being represented on its binding. Three
thousand have been sent out by Sec
rotary Hull to the friends and alumni
Of the institution throughout the state.

since resided there. He wrote his

LIBERTY AND WHITAKER SITS.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1901-10-30

The revenue man is after us with a
sharp stick. Now there will have to be
stamps on all contracts of agreement
between banks and individuals borrow
ing money on stocks. The revenue
man will not reap a large harvest just
now, because no one will lend any mo-
ney on stocks in the present state Of
the market. If one only had the cash
to buy, however, what a fortune lies
waiting for the bold Spectator. De-
pressions are the opportunity of the
moneyed man.

THE MONUMENT.

The work for the monument To Nc
Kinloy has taken such shape that there
is no doubt but that the matter will go
through with dying colors, and to
John A. McCandless rs certainly due
the first inception of IT, When first
proposed there was disposition to
throw cold water upon the movement,
but there is no such disposition now,
the movement is too popular
1t is always said that a mans work
is not appreciated until he is dead. by
a very large number here the late Pre-
sidents work was not appreciated until
he had departed from this earthly
sphere, and it will be found that the
appreciation grows as the results are
more and more realized. The Hawai-
ian, who is represented by some as re-
senting deeply McKinleys action, is
learning, has learned that Mckinley
was his true friend. In what other
way could the Hawaiian have gained
the position which he now holds.
Through McKinleys influence the Ha-
and political power, such as he never
was in the time Of the monarchy. This
is being realized and understood now,
in spite of all traducers.
The various nationalities on these
Islands and in this Territory viii heart
lily join in assisting the committee in
its work. and viii subscribe literally.
The central committee has been well
chosen of representative men, and the
larger committee will be able to embrace
all the Islands and every nationality.
Little Mahukona has the honor of set
ting a good example. The example will
followed throughout the group. AS to
the form the monument that point need
not be argued now. We can wait and
see how considerable the fund will be-
1t will be larger than many people cal
culate upon.

MORE TROOPS.

There is a rush order for troops to the
Philippines. The terms of 10000 of the
troops on those Islands will expire dur
ing the ensuing three months, and
these are to be replaced, while 10000
additional troops are to sent to
strengthen the hands of the military.
As it is now put the military men in
control in the Philippines under-
estimated the power of the insur-
gents" In point of fact the military
men have never underestimated the
power of the insurgents, but the poll
ticians decided that the Philippine
Islands should be pacifed on paper,
should become self governing and
should accept American civilization
and American methods and the thing
was done.
There have been, however, people in
the Philippines who We're totally un-
biassed and who looked over the con-
ditions of the country and reported
without any fear of being called down.
These observers have told that though
civil government was established in
July last, the safety of Americans and
other foreigners in the Philippines gem
orally and even in Manila, depended
entirely upon the presence of the
troops. Let the troops be Withdrawn
and the city of Manila would be a
scene of massacre and license before
the last smoke Of the last transport
had faded on the horizon, or in other
words before the vessels were out of
Manila bay.
That these remarks We're correct was
shown by the number of homicides
which have taken place as soon as the
military protection has left. Indeed,
according to a credible witness who
spent several weeks in Manila, there
is always more or less skrmishing go
ing on within three miles Of the city,
and the troops are ever in readiness to
move. The massacre of a company Of
infantry at Samar, and another yigor-
Gus attack upon our small detachment
of troops on that Island has emphasiz-
ed what was already known, and has
blown away the Cobwebs WeaVed by
those who cry peace, peace, when there
is no peace, The administration does
not mean to take any chances. 1t
means to make the Filipinos under
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1901-10-30

DR.. Cofer's statement about the de-
crease of leprosy is eminently satisfac-
tory. The policy inaugurated forty
years ago is bearing its fruit, and the
time will come when leprosy will be
unknown on these Islands. But it has
only been a strict adherence to hard
and fast rules which has enabled this
to be carried through. Every time
there was laxness, just by so much a
backward stride was taken. 1t should
be remembered that some Of the mem
bers of the Legislature We're in favor
Of abolishing the settlement. This
would have meant the undoing of a
work which is nearly completed.

JOINT ACTION,

one would think that the Joint ac-
ton" craze would some time come to
an end. Joint action of practically
all the Western powers of the world,
has certainly not been success i'm
China, except SO far as the capture of
Picking and the flight of the Chinese
court is concerned But 1t amounted
TO nothing more, absolutely nothing
permanent has been gained. Picking has
been looted 1t is true, and the outer
barbarian has housed his soldiers and
stabbed his horses in the most sacred
precincts of the Forbidden city, but
the hated foreigner has gone, and YOU
cannot make Chinese think, even
here, that the whole Western nations
were not driven out of Picking through
fear of the Chinese Emperor.
with such "a lesson before them, and
with countless lessons taught in for
mer times i'm the Turkish question from
the naval battle of Nayarino which
was brought about 10y the merest acct
dent. through the Crimean War, the
Russo-Turdsh war, the Greeko-Turk-
ish war to the present time there has
been nothing gained by Joint action
1t is single action that will settle the
question, but then every power is so
jealous of any other power that may
occupy Constanunople that the mo-
ment one. moves, the rest are ready to
jump upon that one.
The Turk is astute enough to under
stand the situation to a dot. He plays
one power against another, and then
devotes himself TO cajoling the United
States. His scheme for getting even
with our own country has not panned
out quite as well as he intended, but
he will get even all the same. Every
country of the Western world has had
the Turk in hand, and every country
has burned it's fingers.
And now, once more there is a talk
of Joint action" of the powers to have
the unsettled condition of the interior
of Turkey settled. 1t has been unset
tied for a thousand years at least Ma
cedonia is to be pacihed vi ct arms,
by force and arms, and Miss Stone can
not be recovered. Crete's troubles are
a menace to peace, and yet we had the
warships Of half a dozen nations set
Ting affairs there two or three years
ago. 1t does really look as if the
phrase Joint action by the powers"
which is head lined through the press
of the world, and is whispered with
bated breath by diplomats, is the veri-
est kind of a farce. Looking over the
history of the century just closed and
the history of many centuries anterior
to it, it makes the philosophic mind
Chuckle to see how all these great
diplomats, Parliaments, Legislative
Chambers, Reichstags, Senates and
other representative bodies are going
TO be yet once again fooled by the 'un-
speakable Turk" Some one will come
along and finish up the Turk, but it
will not be diplomacy, but a mailed
hand that will do it. The Turk ought
to have been driven out of Europe three
centuries ago, but Joint action" of a
diplomatic kind will never do it, One
solution would be to put Constantine
pie in the hands of the United States.
She has a reason for interference now.
