The Francis Murphy Temperance
Club Getting Installed.

An informal meeting of the Francis
Murphy Temperance Club was held
Saturday night at its new home in
Queen Emma Hall. and quite a number
of people were present and spent an
enjoyable evening. Everybody there
agreed that the club has a lovely home
and predicts that it will do better work
in its present quarters than in the
old ones. as the latter can be made
more homelike and cheerful. This.
however, will take time and assistance
as well, for considerable is needed to
furnish the house as it sho uld be,
such as pictures, rocking chairs, tables
and other articles. which it is hoped
the good people of Honolulu Will assist
the club in getting. If anyone desires
to donate he can notify the secretary,
+. G. Moves, 512 Beretania street, and
he will see that the articles are called
for and sent TO the hall.
1t was decided to dedicate the new
hall on Tuesday evening, November s.
if possible, with a special religious ser
vice. and it is hoped a very large au-
dence will be present. The entertain
ment committee have decided to give
the opening concert next Saturday
evening, November 9, and also to
charge an admission fee of % cents IN
order to raise funds for the expenses
incurred in fixing up the hall, and il
is hoped the hall will be filed to it's
capacity.
The regular meeting of the board of
directors viii be held this evening at
1:30 o'clock.

TWO ARE DEAD
AND TWO VERY ILL
Bottle of Methylated Spirits Is
Emptied by Hawaiians With
Fatal Results.

Methylated spirits are thought to have
J caused the death of two native workmen,
ard a third is lying seriously i'll at
Queens Hospital. while a woman, the
wife of one of the men, who also drank
| from the fatal bottle, Is also dangerously
affected.
George Apiki and ] Holopii, two work
men employed by Henry Bertleman, the
contractor, discovered a bottle containing
the deadly liquid while at work in Berthe
mans shop Friday, and both drank
therefrom very freely. After satisfying
their thirst, Holopii took the bottle con-
tanning the remainder 10 his home, and
his wife also drank some of the fatal
fluid.
The effects of poison did not become
noticeable until Saturday, when Apiki
who was at work at Bertleman's became
deathly III, and when a physician was
summoned told what he and Holopi had
done. Before the medical men could
reach Holopiis home in Palama he was
dead. Apiki was Immediately removed
TO Queens Hospital and Saturday night
Lepeke, the wife of Holopii, also eXh!b-
tied symptoms of having taken methylat-
ed spirits and was also hurriedly remov-
ed TO the hospital. Both were blinded
10y drinking the stuff, and the woman
is still in serious condition and may
not survive.
Saturday night a man named hdlpo
died. from pneumonia. which was caus-
ed by drinking either adulterated alcohol
or methylated spirits DR.. Noblitt at
tended this man, and was unable to state
from a hasty examination exactly what
the cause of death was 1t is not known
whether Kalpo had been employed at
Bertleman's or not.
y coroner's jury was impanelled by
Depury Sheriff Chilingwor-h yesterday
to investigate the death of Holopii.
Nothing was done by the jury yesterday
aside from viewing the body. The first
session will be held this evening, and
meantime Dr. Shorey is making an ex-
animation OF the liquid which caused the
death of the man, and Will report before
that time.
Mr. Bertlemau states that the spirits
were purchased by him recently. and on
that account his usual practice of put
ting shellac in the bottle had not been
with. The liquid is kept on
the premises for use in polishing wood
work. He states that both men were
good workmen and he is confident that
they were sober Friday. but drank the
stuff through ignorance of it's deadly
properties.
