surrender Puerto Plata without an Of
fetal notice from the government.
Governor Deschamps is said to have
been an aspirant for the presidency, and
has bitterly opposed the present revo

consul at Puerto Plata, on the charge OF
having conspired to overthrow the Jimin.
ez government. The consular corps has
objected to the release of Mr.. Loinaz.
Vice President Horacio Vasquez has
overthrown the government of Presiden.
Juan l. Jiminez after field operations OF
less than two weeks. There has been un.
til recently no apparent rupture OF
friendly relations between the president
and the vice president of the Dominican
republic.
Vasquez, according to his friends, en-.
deavored to support Jiminez, but owing
to contracts which the president is said
to have made to the financial injury of
the republic, the vice president has
turned against him.
Puerto Plata's governor, Deschamps,
has a small force OF troops and also u
warship in port, and may offer to Vas
quez the most determined resistance that
the revolutionary leader has met, but ii
is believed that the town will soon be
captured.
Vasquez is prepared to assume the reins
of government at once. He is of
Dominican birth, and has spent nearly
all the forty years of his life in that coun.
try His friends represent him as progress
sive, intelligent and honorable.

Football Receipts.

The close of the football season,
which resulted in the winning of the
series by the Punahous, by a score of
four wins and no losses, the Males
being second with two. wins and the
same lost games. the H. A. c. team
having a clean score, found the re-
ceipts for the season just $1.20 short OF
5000 for division among the clubs. This
was after the percentage of the College
had been taken out. While the amount
was not what the character of the sport
deserved, it showed that the people ap-
preciated the games played, and gives
the men heart to prepare for the next
season. There may be fourth CLUB IN
the league next time and with enclosed
grounds there will be fine series OF
games, for each club is already count
ing upon the next trial. There prom
ises to be several congratulations, the
older men stepping out and younger
blood being brought into the play.

Residents of Honolulu, like other
American citizens, in making an in
Yestment want to be sure of getting the
worth of their money. They want to
know all the why's and wherefores, and
In direct ratio to the value of the in
vestment they burrow and ferret until
satisfied with the collateral. Take an
instance in the realm of proprietary
articles. If we know of a friend who
has been cured we have some faith in
the preparation; If we know of two or
three our faith increases. If the cures
reach scores all well known citizens.
anyone who still maintains that there
is nothing beyond ordinary merit in
the said preparation, can safely be left
to the care of his fellow taxpayers. If
he wishes to pick a quarrel with them
on the question of their Judgment and
veracity, he has ample opportunity in
Honolulu to do SO. Begin with this
case.
