HIS FIRST SERGEANT is ON THE
INDIANA.
The Honolulu officer has had His Share
of Civil Administration and Win now
Have Some Fighting.

Oscar H. Benjamin, First Duty Ser
geant of Company F, 40th Infantry,
United States Volunteers, is on his way
home on the Indiana, invalided because
of rheumatism.
Sergeant BENJAMIN is in Captain Paul
Smiths company and brings the latest
tidings of Captain smith to his home
town. When Sergeant Benjamin left
his company it was at Cagayan, Island
of Mindanao, under General Kobbe who
is in command of the department of
Mindanao and Jolo. A series of active
operations against the Visayans was
just commencing and Captain Smith
was likely to have opportunity to win
glory.
Captain Smiths company want to the
Philippines. by the transport Indiana.
The very night they landed at Manila
they were sent out on the firing line.
After remaining in and near Manila for
some time the company was sent to the
southern part of Luzon and remained
there until last March. Then it was
sent to Mindanao. 1t was intended TO
undertake some active operations
against the Filipinos in Mindanao. But
the Americans suffered serious reverse
almost at the outset and very little ef-
for to renew activities was made un-
til nearly the first of this year. Ser
geant Benjamin was on this expedition
in which the hill, where the Americans
suffered the reverse last June, was re-
captured. Although the hill is only
about three hours march from Cagayan
the Americans went around to the other
side, taking five days to do it, and
capturing the hill with artillery. Ser
geant Benjamin was out ten days on
this expedition and was brought into
the hospital suffering from rheumatism.
This action was understood to be the
beginning of active operations against
the insurgents of Mindanao.
While the troops were at Yligan, Cap
tain Smith was summary court officer
and gained an excellent reputation as
such. He was the ranking captain of
the department.
At Yligan, Sergeant Benjamin says,
there was very little trouble with the
natives. At Cagayan however, there
was evidence of different state of
feeling. In Mindanao and Jolo, part
of the population are boros, Malay
people, mahometans in religion and
governed by Sultans and minor OFF,
cials. So far they have not come in
conflict with the United States autho-
rity. If they ever are reused Sergeant
Benjamin thinks they will be much
more difficult to subdue than the, Ia
gals of Eisayans. s..
In Mindadao the Chinese entirely con-
troll trade not only the small retail
trade, but the wholesale trade and ex-
port business. They own and control
nearly all the steamships plying be-
tween different parts of the islands.

t IS NOW HER MAJESTY"
OLD STYLE FOR LILIUOKALANI
RENEWED.
Sets Example in a
Court Paper-First Time Since the
Overthrow.
Her Majesty, Liliuokalani. "

Her Majesty, Btliuokalani."
Those are the words on the face of an
injunction issued out of Judge Hum
phreys court today, enjoining the late
Queen and j. H. Wilson from remov-
ing sand from below high water mark
at Waikiki beach.
The words were written by the At
torney- General of the Territory of
Hawaii in the injunction and the paper
is signed by the First Judge of the
Court without alteration.
This is the first time since the over
throw of the Monarchy in 1898 that the
words Her Majesty" have been used
in Nan official paper in connection with
Queen Liliuokalani. Though suits and
state papers have contained her name
it has been made to read either 'Lili-
uokalani," Mrs. Dominis or "EX Queen
Liliuokalani." The name given in the
indictment against her for misprison
of treason in 1895 was Mrs. Dominis." :"
The change from Mrs. Dominis" and
all those other things to Her Majesty
Liluokalani," was not an accident, by
all accounts 1t is the intention of the
Territorial Government to so style the
be observed that the word Queen" is
left out
Sometime ago the Territory applied
for an injunction to restrain Liliuoka-
lani and j. H. Wilson from taking sand
from Waikiki beach. No answer to the
petition was ever filed. In the injunc-
ton it is ruled that the defendants are
bdeclared to be in default.

Manila, June 17.-Cols. Infant and

Sunday signed the name of their
principal to an agreement to sur.
render. Under the terms of this agree
ment Gen. Cailles is to assemble his
men at Santa Cruz, Laguna province,
as quickly as possible and there sur
render himself and his command to
the American authorities. The exact
number of his force is uncertain, but
there will probably be more than
600.
Washington, June 17.-Officials of
the war department are very well
pleased with the prospective surren-
der of Gen. Cailles, the Filipino in
surgcnt leader. Advices received at
the department indicated that this
would soon occur. Cailles is man
of considerable influence, and with his
backing OF some hundreds of men,
has been a menace to the efforts
of the military authorities to stamp
out the rebellion in Luzon. His capit-
ulation, therefore, is regarded with
much satisfaction by the authorities
here, who say they see in it another
evidence Of the general disiDtegration
Of the insurgcnt forces.

DUEL TO THE DEATH.
Together For Years, But One
Had Been wicked.

Columbus, O., June 15.-Two horses
belonging to dairyman named Craft
hever fought duel to the death
Friday night. The pair had been
driven together for years, but one
beast always has exhibited marked
dislike for the other, and whenever
possible has bitten and kicked his
comrade. The latter never retaliated
until Friday night, when the per-
secuted animal attacked his perse-
cutor.
The two horses were turned into
the pasture together in the evening.
Saturday morning the owner found
them dead, the bodies laying side by
side. One horse was frightfully
bruised and bitten, the wounds on
the neck and shoulder showing
where the teeth of it's enemy had
torn loose great strips of flesh. The
other was apparently uninjured,
though dead. The badly lacerated
horse was the prosecutor. The animal
which had suffered his persecution
day after day had killed him, and
then had died, presumably from ex-
haustion and overheating.

San Francisco, June 1.-THE battle-
ship WisconNin steamed into this port
Sunday morning after 4s-hour trial
In the Santa Barbara channel, during
which It was demonstrated that The
Illinois will have to look sharp if she
would retain the honor Of being the
swiftest sailer of her class in the
navy.
According to members Of the trial
board and the experts in naval con-
struction who were aboard the Wis.

final PAGES before being accepted by
the government, the battleship will
show speed of more than is knots
an hour if put under forced draught.
The Wisconsin left this port last
Friday morning, and during the two
days had fair sailing in an easy sea.
With full head of steam and natural
draft the official record for two hours
was 16.45 knots an hour. For the IS
hours the average was 1873 knots an
hour.
Last Saturday while being brought
to this port from Puget Sound the
officers in charge gave the Wiscon-

of seeing her put 37.2 knots behind

London, June 17.-The serious re.
verse which Lord Kitchener reports
is the first accident of the kind that
has happened to the Australian coz
tingent, and it is supposed to be
due to neglect of proper picketing.
Although it is offset by the defeat
inflicted on DeWet, the loss of the
guns is regarded as u serious matter,
which will encourage the Beers to
continue the struggle. More or less
fanciful accounts are published on
the continent of alleged peace nego-
tiations. but there is nothing in them,
