RAZOR IS
MISSING
indications Point
To Suicide Of.
Hornet.
TOOK ALONG
CARBOuC ACID
Evidence Seems Conclusive That
Missing Matchmaker Took
His Life.

The uncertainty attending the mystic
rious disappearance of Ernest Hornet
is gradually deepening into the con-
viction that he has committed suicide
A diligent search made yesterday by
his friends, though it did not result in
the finding of any positive evidence,
only made the theory seem more prob
able that in fit of dependency he had
taken his own life. All day Sunday the
former employer of the young man,
Mr.. Henry F. Wichman, and a fellow
workman and roommate, j. W. Red
house, searched among the rocks of
Waialae for either the body of the
young man or some evidences of his
presence.
The suicide theory was considerably
strengthened yesterday by the discov-
cry made by Hornets roommate, Mr..
Redhouse, that bottle of carbolic acid
and his razor was also missing, and
that the probability was that Hornet
had taken them with the avowed inten-
ton of committing suicide.
Hornet was last seen Thursday even
ing directly after dinner, when he left
his room in Kaimuki with the remark
that he was going for a short walk. La
ter a diligent search was made of his
room and effects but no message or
other Indication was found of his in
tentions. Only the day previous to his
disappearance Mr.. Wichman had given
him half-dozen watches to repair, but
they were found intact in his office in
the Boston building the following day.
His effects were all in good order and
the rumor that he had left town is not
borne out by the condition of his room,
| as nothing was taken which would indi-
| cate his intention of going on jour
ney. The disappearance OF his razor
and of the bottle of carbolic acid is
taken as the best evidence that he in
| tended to take his life, but his friends
still cling to the theory that he may
| vet be found alive and had only start
| ed off on a tramp through the noun
| tains Mr.. Wichman will lead another
Isearch for the missing man today, and
| still believes that there is possibility
| of his being found alive. He speaks in
1.-THE highest terms of Hornet, whom he
characteriZes as man OF exemplary
character. and far above the average
/ in intelligence, honesty and workman
ship. He came to Honolulu TOUR years
ago and went to work for Mr.. Wich-
man from the beginning. At that time
he had not been long out of his mother
country, Germany, and spoke Engllsh
only imperfectly. He had since acqulr-
ed a very thorough knowledge of the
language and spoke French and Ital1an
with fuency.
A few weeks ago he lost his house at
Kaimuki through fire and this, coupled
with other financial losses, preyed upon
his mind and made him despondent.
aside from this it is not known that
Hornet was in any difficulty and he had
already begun the construction OF a
new house upon the site of the old one
Mr. Hornet was about to be married 70
a Mexican girl, Miss Arcia, and the
wedding was to have taken place upon
the completion of the house.

MIDNIGHT RAID
ON JAP GAMBLERS

Deputy Sheriff Chillingworth with a
posse of four officers made a raid upon
"a japanese dice game in Pawaa Satur-
day night, which caused enough dis
turbance to keep the entire neighbor-
hood in a state of uproar for the re-
ing.
The keeper of the house escaped, and
the remaining crap-shooters were cap
tured only after a desperate fight,
which resulted in numerous blackened
eyes and badly bruised bodies.
Complaint had been often made of the
gambling games nightly in progress in
the raided district and Deputy Sheriff
Chillingworth thought that by making
the raid at midnight he would catch
the gamblers unawares and bag the
whole bunch. His officers did take the
Japs by surprise and barred exit
through the doors with their bodies.
The Japs seeing their last hope of es-
cape gone made a dive for the windows
and two succeeded in getting through.
One of them, Basuda, jumped from the
veranda onto step ten feet below, and
was badly hurt He could not run
away and was easily captured. The
proprietor of the house also dived
through window and made his escape
by jumping through a parlor window
and running through the house of Ma
/ or Wood of the Salvation Army The
family was awakened by the entrance
of the fugitive and also by the noise
! of the police following upon his foot
steps. He made his escape and has
not been found.
When the officers attempted to close
in on the gamblers still in the room a
general fight ensued. One Jap blew
out the lamp and in the darkness it was
/ impossible for the police to distinguish
! friend from foe. The police guarded
doors and windows, however, and when
a light was obtained half dozen Jap
anese were still in the room. The po-
! lice and Japs both presented sadly
battered and disreputable appearance
nearly every officer had a black eye and
the Japs were considerably the worse
! for wear At the station the gamblers
gave the following names: Sam vi, j
Koni, Aki Asi, Masuda Oku and ST Kos
Nata Two of them were released yes
terday on bail.

labor, and even in the extreme East it
is hard to get men to work in the

the Chinese exclusion bill is a question.
There is no sentiment in East, except
where it has been worked up by the
labor unions, and there will be hard

THE RUTLAND EXTENSION.

Last Monday the Rutland railroad
began its regular passenger service over
its news lines to Ogdensburg. Labor
troubles and other difficulties have de-
laved the completion of the connecting
link from Burlington to Rouses Point;
but now that these have been overcome
and the work brought TO an end, every
town along the line will rejoice with the
company. The opening means much to
the cities and villages of which the
Rutland is the natural outlet. 1t marks
their release from short rural-line SER
vice to that of a trunk system which
will give them direct connection with the
large cities and allow of through ship
ments of freight. Those business men
who have had experience in the delays
and other like veXations incident to the
isolated condition of the Old Rutland
short line, and the payment of two or
more rates on freight because of trans
fers, will appreciate direct city connec-
tons. The Rutland system already
owns a line OF freight steamers running
through the great lakes between Ogdens-
burg aud Chicago, and it is said passen.
ger boats will be added soon. This will
complete the system. The only regret is
that the Filchburg road could not have
been secured for the Boston end.

Letters from st. Petersburg announce
that extensive liquor reforms have been
instituted in Russia, involving the closing
of all liquor saloons, and prohibition of
the drinking of intoXicants in public
places. With the exception of Siberia,
in which portion of the empire the new
law does not 90 into effect until 1903, no
liquor saloons are permitted throughout
Russia and no man may deal in spirtu-
Gus liquors, the sale having become a
government monopoly. The farmers,
however, are still permitted TO distill vod-
ka-a native whskey made from rye or
potatoes-but they are allowed to sell the
product of their stills only to the govern
ment.
The spirits are taken from the distill-
cries To the government stores. refined in
the government mills, and delivered TO
the public from the government shops,
with the states stamp on each bottle. 1t
is not permissible TO open the bottles eX-
cept in the home of the purchaser, and a
person seen drinking in any public place
or on the road is fined from 81 30 TO $40.
The Russians have been conspicuous
for drunkenness, consuming more liquor
per capita than the people of any other
country, the Scotch possibly excepted /;
and the amount of resulting paupersm
among the peaSantry especially has been
so tremendous thar the Gar and his ad.
vlsers felt constrained TO apply a rem.
edy. The law has been in operation for
several months, and St. Petersburg cor
respondent of the New York Post reports
that the silutary effect of the reform has
been felt already. Drunkenness has
diminished TO an important extent and
deposits in savings banks are on the in
crease. In order to provide places of
assembly and recreation for the country
people, many private individuals have
opened temperance houses, that are scat
tered all over the country. In many in
stances small shops are attached to these
houses. Groceries, hardware, tobacco,
calico and other goods to supply the
modest demands of the villagers are TO
be found in these shops.
Reading rooms with newspapers and
simple books are attached TO many of
them, and the contrast between these
wholesome places of resort and the old
liquor saloons, which on Sunday espec-
Tally were scenes of coarse debauchery
aud lighting, is most noticeable.
In some of its features the Russian law
seems to resemble the South Carolina
State dispensary law; and as the sale of
liquors of improved quality at uniform
prices is giving larger revenues TO the
government than the former taxes on
distillery products yielded, il is likely TO
stand.

Some weeks ago the REGISTER prom
ised to resume the publication of its
popular quarterly illustrated supplement,
Vermont Illustrated" and we are able
to announce the appearance of No. of
the series during February. The maya
zine was discontinued because of the diff
ficulty of printing it on an ordinary
newspaper press. Our fine new Cottrell
book press was installed last spring, and
it was then hoped once more to begin
printing the magazine; but the failure of
the waterworks system caused further
veXatious delay, as the press is run by
large watermelon. The press has, how
ever. been IN running order for the past
two months, and is now rapidly turning
out the first edition of Mr.. Battell's latest
work, ELLEN" The press is showing
its capacity for fine printing, and we can
assure our readers that when the next
number of vermont Illustrated" reaches
their hands, they will not fail TO recog-
nize that the delay has been of great ad-
vantage. Inc magazine VIII, as hereto
fore, be full of halftone pictures of Yer
mont's beautiful sceneIy-pictures never
before published, and copyrighted at
that. The text will be a continuance of
the historical matter pertaining to Yer
mont's early days, gathered from origi-
nal sources and presented in most
readable form by w. II. Bliss, Esq. The
pictures and history make rare combi-
nation of that which appeals to the love
Of nature and of country; and, to quote
Senator Proctor, cit is a great credit in
the matter of style and will be very
helpful to the st te." No other paper in
the state can afford to give Its subscrib-
ers, without additional compensation, so
expensive all art supplement as "Ver-
mont Illustrated" and to secure 1t one

81 per year in advance. We shall pub
lish at least four numbers of this illus
trated magazine during the coming year.
