a se-dIitx Powder

An elderly German couple presented
themselves at one of the local theatres
one night this weekRwith two tickets OF
admission, one white and the other blue
The ticket-taker politely informed the
man that the white ticket called for ad-
mission TO the first floor, but that the
holder of the blue ticket must go to the
family circle above.
"Vat is dat?" exclaimed the old man.
Again the ticket taker explained, the
man in the meantime edging his way IN,
but being gently restrained. Finally, be-
coming enraged, the old man said;
Vat you try to do, separate a man
from his frau9 | give you de tickets.
Vat | care if dey is blue and white. Vat

After this sally the ticket-taker called
an usher and had the old couple shown

Wallace and Habel reached the deck
of the steamer, but MoultOn, being
weighted down by a heavy OvercOat,
barely succeeded In grabbing the outer
rail, where he remained clinging for
fully fifteen minutes. Many times
MoultOn pleaded with his companions
to save him from being carried away
by the heavy sea. TO plunge to his
rescue probably meant death for both.
The two men on deck worked valiant

hands were benumbed by the cold

Alderman Wallace walked out as far
as possible lay down on the deck, and
taking Moulton's coat collar in his
teeth, held him above the water for
fully five minutes, or until help ar

The Tourist was finally towed back
and made fast to the dock. Several

rects or prevents mistakes This was
true in the case of the Indiana train
dispatcher mentioned in the news re,
ports as having given wrong orders
to two fast freights which, approach
ing each other on a single track, were
certain to collide. The dispatcher real
lied his error few moments after the
train had left his station, and It did
not take him many seconds to realize
that there was nothing to be done but
to Oyertake that train, as there was nc
signal station between the two points
from wtieh the two Were by this time
nearing each other An idle locomo
tive stood on a switch alongside the
station, and the dispatcher was aboart

The train was caught In ten miles
and switched to a siding with just g
minute to spare before the other loco

The other trades can organize their

VAN DER VELDE
GOT FIVE DAYS
Former Hawaiian Surveyor Gets
Off Lightly in Police
Court.

The San Francisco Chronicle says:
Ex-Lieutenant L. a. Van der Velde of
the Dutch navy. was yesterday sem
fenced by Judge Cabaniss to five days
Imprisonment on the charge of petty
larceny, to which he had pleaded gull
ty nearly two weeks ago. After re-
signing from the navy the defendant
had gone to Honolulu, where he Sc
cured a position as surveyor for one
of the large sugar plantations, but his
health failing, he came to this city,
arriving here with about 5000. This
money he expended on his health and
looking for work, and when he took a
bicycle from in front of the Public Lii
brary he had eaten nothing for two
days He has wealthy relatives and
friends in Holland, but preferred to
suffer in silence rather than that they
should know his condition.
In the Islands he met naother Hol-
lander of good family, William George
de Boer, and together they came to
this city. De Boer has money in his
own right in Holland, but he is good
liver, and his last remittance of $500
marks did not cover the period until
the next is due, so he was unable to aid
his friend. He was arrested at the
same time with Van der Velde, but
beyond the fact that he knew his
friend was desperate and intended to
do something he was not a party to
the offense and was released.
But he has stayed by his friend dur
ing his trouble, and has daily called at
the City Prison and visited with him
during the time allotted. In addition
to this he has cabled twice, through
the Dutch Consul, Wilfrid B. Chap
man, for funds with which to pay any
possible fine that may be inflicted but
no answer has been received. The case
has twice been continued, and yester-
day being the day fixed for sentence,
the court had no option but to impose
it. When his name was called the ex-
naval officer stood at attention, and
heard the judgment of the court with (
out apparent emotion other than a
heightened color. His attorney, Will |
liam Caldwell, made an earnest plea |
for clemency, which the court was will |
ing to recognize owing to the fact that |
the defendant had already been con- |
lined two weeks.
