TRAGEDY LATE SATURDAY
YOUNG LADY DEAD WITH BULLET
THROUGH BRAIN.
Suicide and Murder Theories are Both
Advanced-Girl Only Fifteen years
of Age-Mystery

Effie Gertrude Givens, the fifteen
year old daughter or j. w. Givens, OF
Uiaa, was found dead in the temporary
residence of the family on 'Anapuni
street near DominIs, about o.cIock
saturday afternoon. In her hand was
her fathers 3S-calibre revolver, one
ban from which had passed through
her head from point near the right
temple.
Mystery surrounds the case Mr..
Givens is inclined to the opinion that
his daughter was murdered, but has
no reason for thinking so farther than
the fact that she was happy when he
left in the forenoon. The father and
step-mother left in the forenoon to look
after fitting up their permanent home
leaving the young lady in the house.
the next they knew of the matter was
news that a neighbor had discovered
the dead body of the girl in a room of
the house.
Mr.. Owens was head carpenter for
the Olaa Sugar Company on Hawaii
his Wire, the mother of Miss Efiie, died
some years ago following which the
girl went to live with her grand parents
IN Iowa. She returned last April to
Oaa to live with her father ana step
mother, whom her father had married
two years AGO. The GiVens family ar
rived in Honolulu only two weeks ago
WIN the intention OF remaining here.
a close friend of the family gave out
this Statement this morning: II have
known the Owens family a long time.
They and l are wholly unable to ac-
count for the tragedy. SO far as we
know there was no cause for suicide.
The young lady was devoted to her
father and step-mother and she was
idolized by them. If she really shot her
self it was certainly in a moment of
temporary insanity. When her parents
left in the forenoon she was as happily
as lark; was telling them of how de-
lighted she was with Honolulu and their
new home and also spoke of going to
church the following day and what she
would wear. What followed it is impos-
sible to explain. we cannot get over the
feeling that a second parry was re-
sponsibie for the shooting. At the
same time Mr.. Givens' revolver was
used and nothing in the house was dis
turbed."
The funeral took place from the resi-
dence at o'clock yesterday afternoon.
The parents are completely broken
hearted over the affair. The follow
ing coroner's jury was subpoened Sat
urday, viewed the body and will sit
this afternoon: Thomas Krouse. A. b.

BUFFALO AND ELK.

In some of the big game preserves
in Vermont and the Adirondack noun
tains, said an Albany man recently
the buffalo and elk herds are rapidly
increasing in numbers, and this fact is
leading SpOrtsmen to hope that the eX-
tinctiOn of these animals may yet be
prevented. The difficulty in saving the
buffalo is that there is no longer any
wild pasture land for him to feed up
on. He is naturally an inhabitant of
the plain, and plains have grown to be
too valuable to be left in the undisturb-
ed possession of the bison. The elk, on
the other hand, thrives well in the hills
and if sufficiently protected by the law.
there is plenty of wild mountain land
on which he could live and multiply
for years. The buffalo will probably
never again roam in vast herds, but
the race at least can be preserved
While the elk and other deer ought to
populate our mountain wastes. secure

been theirs in the past."-New Bedford

TARO SITUATION BETTER.
Nearly Enough Now Being Received at
Molokai Settlement.

Superintendent Reynolds states that
fair supply of taro is now being re-
ceived at the Molokai settlement from
neighboring valleys, and that on the
whole, the people there are in no worse
fix than in Honolulu and elsewhere
Some weeks there is ample but at other
times a shortage occurs and flour has tc
be resorted to. Mr.. reynolds thinks
that the problem cannot be finally set
tied until the Health Board has a
steamer of it's own which can make
special trips to taro localities betimes
in quest of paiai
The superintendent states that the
Wilder Steamship Company is now
charging for the transportation of sus-
poets from the other islands to Kalihi
and is also charging him and other Of
ticials regular fare between Molokai and
Honolulu. In the past suspects and Of
hcials have been carried free of charge
but this has been merely a concession.

Taking the tip from the fire insur-

anyone bringing i'm an acceptable APP

NEW RULE ADOPTED.
Fire Insurance Agents Must Cut Out
Runners"


Hereafter no commissions will be
paid for writin~ fire insurance except
to agents and bona fide employees of
agents. This rule has been adopted by
the Honolulu Board of Underwriters.
In the past anyone taking a risk"
into an agents Office would receive a
commission for it, the amount of the
commission depending upon the term
of insurance rate and total premium.

keep rates up to the fixed standard,
the insurance agents have adopted this
new rule. Hereafter fire insurance can

He Saved the Boy.

We never tire of hearing stories
about our favorite heroes. There
fore the following will be read
again with pleasure, even though
it. is more than a "twicc told-tale. :"
When Washington was young
man about eighteen years of age,
nc was at one time engaged in help
ing TO measure the land.
He was in the midst Of a great
forest near a rushing stream of
water.
One day he heard the voice Of a
woman screaming in terror.
AS soon as she saw Washington
she cried out, "Oh, sir, will you
not help me3 My poor little boy
has fallen into the water, and these
men will not let me try to save
him -
cit is Of no use," said one Of the
men. eff she jumps into this rocky
river she will be dashed to pieces in
moment. She can not possibly
save the child, and will only lose
her own life."
But Washington scarcely waited
to hear these words. He remcm-
bercd the bright, sunny-baircd little
boy whom he had often seen play
ing before cabin nearby.
lie took n rapid glance down the
angry rushing stream. Soon he saw
the little boys white dress, and
without another moments hesita-
ton he threw off his coat and
lcapcd into the roaring rapids.
"Ihank God! He will save my
boy,' cried the mother. ooh, my
boy, my darling child"
How eagerly they all watched as
the brave young man struggled to
reach the child.
At times it would seem that he
would surely be dashed to pieces
on the sharp rocks.
Again the strong current would
bear him under till he would be lost
to sight. Twice did the child dis.

again. On and on struggled the
brave Washington, almost in reach
of him, but unable to grasp him.
at last they nearcd the most dan
gcrous part of the river, the falls
themselves. The mother tremblcd
with anxiety lest now the young
man would give up his pcrilous
task.
Not SO; he only rcdoubled his
efforts. Just before they reached
the falls, he seized the boy and
held him up with his strong right
arm.
What a shout Of joy came from
those who were watching from the
shore.
But, alas! suddenly both man
and boy disappeared over the falls.
The mother ran forward in terror,
but soon gave glad cry rs she saw
them ut the foot Of the falls un-
harmed, tho brave Washington
was still holding her child and
making his way towards tho shore.
Washington himself was nearly
exhausted when he finally reached
tho shore with the child safe, though
unconscious.
1t is impossible to describe tho
gratitude Of that mother when her
child was at length sleeping sweet,
ly in her arms.
"God will reward you," she said
to Washington, "IIc will do great
things for you in return for this
days work, and the blessings OF
thousands besides mine will bc
yours.'

Led by a Little Child.
RY MRS. S. S. WOOD.

She has a dear baby, who evil
IDENTIFY had seen little more than
one spring and summer of life, who
was being carried back and forth
on our block in the arms Of an in
toxicated father.
His steps were unsteady, and as
he crossed the uneven pavements
to the opposite sidewalk, he stubbcd
his toe, and for a moment l held
my breath, fearing lest the man
would fall heavily upon the child.
But the guardian angel Of this lit
tie one kept watch that no evil
should come nigh it, Presently he
recrossed the street, and seated
himself upon the steps of an adj
joining house, whence I could hear
the thick-voiced muttering words
of endearment as he sought to quiet
the fretful baby, and watch his un-
steady motions as he changed her
from arm to arm.
Presently, Fastening along with
an anxious air, and glancing hur-
riedly from side to side, came a
young woman dressed in black.
She caught sight Of the father and
baby, stopped and attempted to
snatch the infant from his arms.
But in moment he was alert, and
indifferent alike to her entreatics
remonstrances and angry words.
Again she attempted to take the
child, but the baby shrank away
with cry, and cuddled closer to
her fathers breast. Soon the woman
went away, only to return in a few
| moments, when similar scene
was enacted with a, like result.
Several times this was repeated,
and l became strangely interested,
wondering why the baby should
cling SO closely to her inebrlated
father, and dreading lest the mother
in her evident fear that some harm
come to the child, should summon
policeman. Finally, after a longer
absence than at any previous time,
she again returned, this time accom-
panied by bright-eyed, sunny
haired little boy of some three or
four years Of age. When he caught
sight Of father and sister, with a
little exclamation of joy, he ran up
to the man, and laying one chubby
hand on his knee, said pleading:
"Come home, papa, please, and
undress Bennie for bed; he's SO
s'eepy."
Unsteadily the man arose, grasped
his little boys hand, and together
the four started down the street.
Soon the baby was transferred to
her mothers arms, and thankful at
the happy ending, for "a little
child had led him." l drew my
window shades and turned away
with tear dimmeG eye to ask that
the father Of B.lnie and baby
might be saved through the blessed

Thoy did thoir duty in tho civil war

whom applied to another will not, in
our opinion, improve our prcsont
conditions, but may unsettle tho
ponco and thrift of our people and
dccronso tho wealth and prosperity
of our country"
Tho leading feature Of tho suf-
fr"go clause Of today by ex,Gov-
crnor Jones is that which donies tho
right to vote to "any person who
shall hereafter bo guilty and con-
vlcted of selling his own vote or buy
ing or bartering tho voto of another,
in any legal election Or in any pri
mary, caucus or convention held to
nominate persons or public ollicors
or to olcct delegates to any primary
or convention, or who shall make or
aid ill making any false count, corti-
ticates or returns as to tho result Of
such election, primary, caucus or
convention, or shall thereafter carry
concealed weapons"
- On all Of tho desks of tho Conven-
ton is an address by Senator Nor
gan and copy Of the suffrage
clause which ho has prepared for the
consideration of tho Convention.
Tho address is designed to support
tho clause. Senator Morgan's plan
ID simple. Nobody but white man
shall hold Office.
A Court of throo registrars is pro.
vided for each county and these
Courts shall have absolute power to
determine tho qualifications of every
voter, except that an appeal from its
decisions lios to tho Circuit Court.
Tho registrars arc elected to start
with, by the Courts of tho county
commissioners, but after tho first
torn of four years aro to be chosen
by tho people.
Tho roal feature of tho plan is in
the provision that only white mon
shall hold Office. The registrar plan
il similar to tho ono in mississippi
except that tho Courts Of registrars
have much wider discretion.
