GOVERNMENT TO BUY THE VAL
LEY PROPERTY.
VIII Give $4,000 for Lot on Which Elec-
trio Station Stands-Executive Meet
ing Today.

At the Executive meeting this morn
ing it was decided to buy the land in
Nuuanu valley upon which the Terri
torial electric light system is located,
provided the legislature Will supply the
money. This land is leased from Jo-
seph Marsden, but a provision of the
lease is to the effect that 1t may be
purchased by the government at any
time for $6,O00 AS the land is worth
much more than that amount, the exc
cutive now considers the property a
good buy.
The first matter before the Executive
meeting this morning was letter from
Superintendent McCandless, outlining
the agreement between Mr.. Marsden
and the government. 1t was recon-
mended that an item of Sc 900 be placed
in the bill to be recommended to the
legislature.
Mr.. Peck, of Hilo, applied for a
charter for a private bank. Granted.
Mr.. Lansing asked that If, under the
law, he could detail a substitute to go
to Hilo and count the money of the
proposed bank. 1t was the opinion of
the executive that he could.
Hackfeld & Company applied for a
wholesale liquor license for Lahaina,
Maui. Referred to Sheriff Baldwin fol
an opinion.
Mr.. McCandless referred to the Exc
cutive petition from residents of Fort
street, asking for a sidewalk between
Hotel street and Beretania street. 1t
was decided to require the property
owners along this section to put in the
walk at once. Should they fail so tc
do, the government will put it in al
their expense.

JOHN DOE IS SOLD OUT
DEPUTY SHERIFF CHILLING
WORTHS ACTION.
The Restaurant That Had Second Hand
Maraconi and Vermicelli-Sea Salt
and Table Salt.

John Doe was sold out at noon today
by Deputy Sheriff Chillingworth. John
Doe is a Chinaman who owed bill of
$24 which he could not or would not
pay. He ran a restaurant on Bethel
street and when the Consolidated Soda
sheriff swooped down upon the restau-
rant, moved it into the square in front
of the police station and at noon to-
day auctioned ii all off.
There was a plentiful assortment of
things for the bidders to go after Some
were new and others had been second
hand for long time. Some second
hand macaroni and vermicelh was part
of the seized stuff. Few people know
what second hand macarOni or vermi-
celi is, but John Doe had some If it
according to the list of seized goods.
-Four boxes of maCaroni and Vermicelli
more or less used" is the way the stuff
was listed. Patrons of John Does late
restaurant have probably not known
what unheard-of dishes they were get
ting.
There were pickles, lard, beans, syrup
catsup, lucca oil listed as salad in pa
renthesis, showing again that John
Does customers were looked after in
manner worty of the fame of the pro-
prietor's sheriff's sale name. Syrup
was there and some sea salt for cook
| ing, with other better looking salt for
table use, written down as table salt
and proving that John Doe didn't be-
| lieve in having sea salt on his tables.
A small quantity of oats and some
flour made up the rest of the stock
| of eatables.
| For furniture John Doe had half a
dozen wooden tables some chairs more
| or less used" and plainly showing that
| they had been more used than they will
stand for again, and large assortment
| of plates, cups and saucers. The cups
were of the kind from which no one is
likely to bite a piece. There We're
! knives and forks and lot of glasses
/ didn't propose to have the dish washers
color were in the collection. Syrup
! jugs, iron pals of all sizes, together
with various dishes, made up collec-
| tion that would have started a sue
! cessor to the establishment of John
! Doe, if any one man had bought all.
| There were two ice chests and last OF
all there was a dinner pail. Possibly
John Doe brought his lunch from home
when he came down to work in the
morning.
The Bethel restaurant was an old one
| well known to kamaainas. 1t didn't
keep up with the march of progress anC
so had to go. Perhaps the serving OF
macaroni and vermicelli that had beer
more or less used was too much fol
Honolulu people since annexation. Per.
haps the sea salt drove custom away
and perhaps John Does use of a dinner
pail made patrons suspicious.

BAKER HERE ON THE
TRANSPORT sOLACE.
Deserted and Joined the Filipinos and
Is Under Life Sentence Now-Fili-
plnos Taken to Guam.

The naval transport Solace, Captain
Winslow, arrived this afternoon from
Manila and Guam, on her way to San
francisco with sick, wounded and dis
enlarged men, and a few prisoners.
Among others she has on board is the
United States soldier Frederick NJ
Baker, who deserted his regiment to
fight in the Filipino army and is now
under a life sentence for desertion in
the face of the enemy. ......
Baker was a valued addition te-the
forces of the Tagals and they made him
officers uniform. He was tried h9s
court martial and though he escaped
the fate of being shot usually meted out
for desertion before the enemy, he was
sentenced to life Imprisonment in a
military prison which means that the
rest of his natural life will be spent in
breaking rock on Alcatraz island, san
Francisco.
There are IL other prisoners on board
the Soace, sentenced to various terms
for military offences. All will go to
Alcatraz, to pay for their offences
against military law in that terrible
prison.
I The Solace was employed on her way
up to take Filipii o prisoners to Guam,
Uncle Sans new st. Helena. She land
] ed on the island II Filipinos of various
rank, whom General Macarthur
| JnOuBnt dangerous enough men TO be
| worthy of being sent to the island,
| where they could no longer stir up re-
I bellion. This is the new policy adopted
= because prisoners caught and allowed
/ to go after swearing allegiance to the
! United States, frequently broke their
Oaths.
! Six officers and seventeen men in the
: hospital sick and wounded and two
! passengers from Guam make up the
| Solace's list of passengers. The men in
! the hospital are all sick but two. These
! are men who were wounded in the Tien
I Tsin sortie and have since lain In the
I military hospital at Yokohama. They
are members of the 9th Infantry. Both
! are recovering.
Captain Winslow is the man who had
much trouble with the customs authO-
| rites while here on his way to Manila
The differences were over the matter
of allowing Chinese in the crew to land.
One of the Chinese crew was arrested
for defyng the custom house order that
they must not land.

January and = ueTn on February ,3.-->-'

met his death in Luzon and was in
valided home afterwards. Lieutenant

one of the troublesome maladies for
which the Philippine climate is fam
Gus, but he is strong and healthy now
! and is going to tackle il again.

The Disease More Prevalent than Ever and
Quite as Fatal. The Best Treatment.
The grip has surprised the doc
tors and health authorities this season
by its rapid spread and by some novel
symptoms. While it spares nobody
it is proving especially dangerous to
middle-aged and elderly persons. In
many cases either a fatal onset of
pneumonia, or complete breakdown
of health and strength, is apt to fol
low an attack of grip.
The vie course for all is preven-.
tion. BY wearing a BenSon's Porous
Plaster on the chest and back you
protect the lungs from cold and chill
and with ordinary care) you are
safe from grip.
For those who are already suffer
ing from grip, or from the usual win
ter coughsand colds, ,Benson's Plasters
are a sure and speedy relief and cure.
