others will relate their travelling experiences and talk loud enough to be heard all over the car; some will comment on people near them in the car, often talking to angels unawares.
 On one occasion three in a party expressed themselves as very anx- ious to see Captain Hance, and kept hoping it would be possible to see him before their return. Un- known to them he was on that very train. Shortly the captain, dressed in his best suit, with his usual dig nifty, opened the front car door and stood looking in. One of those anxious to see him made the re- mark, "I wonder what country hay seed that is, and if that is the kind of people they have out at the Can yon2" Another said, ''I would not want that heavyweight to come along and fall over us."
 Shortly the captain closed the door and the party of three made believe to breathe a sigh of relief. Soon the captain returned with friend, who introduced him to some one directly opposite the people who had been remarking about him. When they caught the name of Captain John Hance the look on their faces told more than words.
 As the whistle is sounded for the Canyon and the station is called, there is another worry-how far do we have to walk2 Will we have to carry our baggage? All are agree ably surprised on alighting from the train to find a polite porter who relieves them of all packages Their next haste is to register, so as to secure rooms. Here we leave them for the next train load, to go over almost precisely the same perform ance.
 Mrs. Ainsworth returned from Grand View with her sister, Miss Hill, and took the train this morn ing for Williams.
 Miss Alice Lumsden was also a passenger this morning for Will jams.
 MT. Baker, who has been driving the Grand View stage for several months, is to leave us for other oc- cupation. All who had the pleas ure of the trip with MT. Baker will remember his many kindnesses and cheerful manner.

GRAND CANYON, Aug. 27.


 After the train has been placed at the station ready for the passen- gers to embark for the Canyon, the first person to enter is usually the dignified porter from the Grand Canyon hotel at Williams, with his hands full of baggage, which he disposes of in places most suitable to the owners. The west bound traffic being little light just now, the seats look empty until the ar rival of No. ? from the west.
 The porter is soon followed by a few passengers, who. seeing the car so unoccupied, begin to comment that they guess "this road" don't do much business and that they can use all the chairs they wish, so accordingly have half dozen satch- els occupying as many chairs, while the few confiscate a double chair each A few more travellers soon follow the first and likewise begin to spread themselves around over the car. During the short wait for No ? they utilize the time fretting about their trunks-whether they will be safe in the baggage room at Williams; which is the sunny side of the car; if there will be room enough for all when they get to Bright Angel; whether they can get supper or a lunch on their ar rival at the hotel. This last ques- ton can be answered in the mega tive, so it is best for all to eat substantial supper before leaving Williams, for you can find plenty of good things to eat there and more good things to drink
 Just before No. 2 arrives some individual on the Grand Canyon train thinks he is short a piece of hand baggage and rushes out to have some of the train crew help him find it, just as this crew is busy helping the crowd which came in on No 2 to change cars. He comes back disgusted because they will not let all else go, for him, when more than likely the lost article is safely in the car, and in his ner- vous state he has overlooked it.
 The party growls and says, "Well. if that conductor. brakeman and baggageman don't look exactly hdt WHICH of them" We fail to see any re- semblance.
 As the passengers from No. 2 be- gin to enter, and finding nearly all the chairs taken with baggage, take it upon themself to unceremoni- ously clear the seats. The first corners who thought to have the car to themselves wear a visible scowl. Finally the conductor calls all aboard, and all seems ready to depart, when there is more uneasi- ness on the part of some for fear some one will be left behind, and some one seemingly familiar with the surrounding offers the informa- ton that this train just runs to accommodate tourists, and will wait indefinitely, and another in the car gruffiy remarks, this train leaves on time. The train pulls slowly down and stops for the switch to be turned. We hear some one say, "I suppose this is the way it will be all the way to the Can yon-" As the train proceeds the passengers begin to amuse them selves in various ways for the rest of the trip. One begins with a nap and entertains his travelling com

MURDER AND SuLCLDE

John Williams, a native is lying at
the Queen Hospital at the point of
death from self inflicted gunshot wound
while the woman with whom he has
been living has a bullet wound in her
ear as the result of a jealous quarrel be-
tween the two.
Yesterday afternoon, Williams left
the Won Hamm Young store taking with
nm another mans S coat a revolver be-
longing to the store, 81 long Caliber
and other articles. This morning he
failed to appear and at noon a Chinese
boy was sent to his rooms ON the cor
ner of Liliha and Vineyard streets. The
boys knocks were answered with shoot
ing from within and, thoroughly fright
ened he ran away with Williams swing
ing the revolver around and firing as ue
left. Captain Parker went to the room
and found the man dying with two
wounds in his head one in the center of
the forehead and one passing upwards
through the palate of the mouth The
woman had a bullet wound in the ear
1t is probable that Williams took the
revolver with the intention Of killing
the woman and himself. She left him a
few days ago and returned yesterday
when it is supposed that her confession
to him of what had happened during
her absence determined HIM to attempt
the double crime.

WANTS LITTLE TIME
WILLIAMS ASKS FAVOR OF JUDGE
WILCOX.
Negro Says He Would Like to Get
Away From Honolulu-Court Could
Not Grant Request.

Edgar williams the Ebonian burg
lar wants to leave town. In fact he
caused no end of amusement i'm the
police court by asking the court for
little time in which to make the move.
The police department is doing all in
its power to give Williams time but
not the variety he seeks as the author
tities are trying to have him commit
ted to Jail to serve time on the rock
pile.
williams is one of the darllies who
was discharged by Judge Gear recent
ly. He was charged with committing
burglary in entering the jewelry store
'of F. A. Ward and stealing some jewel
ry. The defendant was aTraigned be-
fore Judge Wilcox this morning to an
swer to the charge of having made an
assault on officer MOssman with an
ak while trying to elude the officers
who were seeked to arrest Williams
for the robbery.
Williams was plainly embarrassed
and ill at ease as he faced the court
The defendant shifted from one foot
to the other and furtively looked from
the prisoners dock where his part
ner Bob Williams, was quietly enjoy
ing the trial, to the some of the numer-
GUS attorneys in the court room, but in
none of them did he see any encourage
men. Judge Wilcox explained to Will
llamS that The hearing in the lower
court, would be but perfunctory as the
real trial would in all probability, have
to be before jury, so he asked Will
liams if he had anything to say about
it or desired to waive examination.
mo sir amt got nuthin to say"
replied the darky.
We'll" replied Judge Wilcox, "I
don't wish to hurry any one. If you
want any time in which to consult
with an attorney just say so and I will
give it to YOU
At the mention of "time" Williams
saw a faint CLEAN of hope and he
clutched at it like a drowning man at
straw. Yes sir" he exclaimed.
I'D like to have enough time to get
out of this city in, if l could"
IF 1 had anything to say in this mat
ter" replied Judge Wilcox with a
smile 1T would be God speed you
"Well in that case" said Deputy
| High Sheriff ChillingwOrth, 81 will ask
that the case go over until Monday"
The continuance was granted. Bob
and Edgar Williams were also arraign-
ed on charges Of being unlawfully on
| the premises of another at night and
the same disposition was made of this
charge.

THE CASE IS CLOSED
JURORS GOING TO VISIT PEARL
HARBOR.
Honolulu Plantation Company Finds a
Witness Who Grew Crops on Some Of
The Condemned Land.

The taking Of testimony i'm the second
trial of the case of the United States
against the Honolulu Plantation Com
pany was finished this morning and
court adjourned to Monday, when ar
gument will be begun. Tomorrow will
be spent i'm a visit to the land involved
in the action
When the trial began, the stormy
weather caused a pOstpOnemeut of the
visit to Pearl Harbor, but now that
there is prospect Of less wind and rain
Judge Estee and the twelve jurors, with
United States Attorney Dunno, Judge
Silliman and Marshal Hendry will take
zig gag walks across the $40 acres OF
land, the jurors trying to size up its
value for raising sugar cane, or other
products.
There was some testimony in this trial
that didn't get in i'm the original hearing
Witnesses were called to testify as TO
the value of the buildings on the land,
about which little was said last time,
the defense having only Manager Low
statement that the improvements were
worth $4,000.
Another new witness was William
Ward, who testified this morning that
he had cultivated some of the land
about ten years ago, and said he had
grown tarO, bananas. corn, sorghum,
pumpkins, WatermelOns and other We
getables on the land. using about 81
acres of it. This is the only evidence
the defendants have got in as to what
the land will produce, all estimates of
what sugar it might be expected to pro-
duce having been ruled out by the court
as too speculative.
This morning juror Axtell was alb
sent when court opened, at $3.50. After
waiting ten minutes Judge Estee order
ed an attachment issued and marshal
Hendry was ordered to bring the juror
into court. AXtell arrived a few min
utas before ten o'clock He said that
his watch was wrong. The court order
ed him to pay the costs of the attach
mont. 81 20. hnt imnOsed no fine.
