LIFE ON SLENDER THREAD
Hotel Guest is Found Barely Alive,
with Room Full of
Gas.

As a result Of a hilarious time Saturday
night Henry Wilson Of Arlington, Neb., had
an experience at the Klondike hotel which
came very near costing him his life. He
was found unconscious lying on the floor
of his room barely alive, apparently having
inhaled most of the gas that had escaped
from a Jet wide open near him. Police
Surgeons Hahn and Mick brought him
around after hard work and he is now out
of danger.
With Wilson when he went to the hotel
in the early part Of the night was a
woman whom he registered as his wife.
When his door was opened by the clerk
of the hotel the woman had gone and Will
son lay on the floor alone. The clerk no.
titled the police of the disappearance Of
the woman, and it was at first thought
that she had attempted to murder him.
After a thorough Investigation the police
said Wilson's condition was due to his
own car~elessness. His door was locked
and the key, which was in the lock, was on
the inside. The nigh eierk, who had gone
of duty before Wilsc lFas discovered, said
Wilson, after going 70 the room with the
woman, left the hotel and went to a sa-
loon in the neighborhood. where he re-
NAMED for some time. During his alb
sence the m left. Wilson returned in
toxicated.
Wilson was found near the foot OF his
bed, lying face down. His arms were out
stretched and his hands tightly grasped the
bottom of a washstand in the corner OF the
room. He was fully dressed and appeared
as though he had fallen Immediately upon
entering the room.
He does not know how the gas came to be
turned on and said he was positive that
after turning it off he held a lighted
match above the Jet to see that it was of.
He complained to the police that he had
been robbed Of 50. Wilson was discovered
by the day clerk at the hotel, who in pass
ing the room smelled the gas. The door

HAWAII FACES TROUBLE
Governor suspends officials Who Test His
Power in Court.
SAYS SENATE MUST APPROVE HIS DECREE
Many Public servants Under cloud Are
Ousted and One Fights to Re-
gain Admission TO His
once.

HONOLULU. Nov. 1-(Correspondence OF
the Associated Press.)-James II. Boyd,
local superintendent Of public works, has
been suspended from office by Governor
Dole and arrested on a warrant, charged
with the embezzlement of $3.50 of public
funds. Boyd's suspension renders a third
important territorial ONCE vacant and has
involved the governor in another legal
tangle as to his powers of suspension.
Boyd was in San Francisco when his
chief clerk, B. II. Wright, was arrested on
a charge OF entertainments aRgregating
over $4,000, the treasurer accused of abb
sconding with SIS, 900 of public money and
the auditor suspended under grave charges.
He returned here on October % and was
handed a letter from the governor notify
ing him of his suspension. The superin-
tendent declared he would resume charge
Of his ONCE, but found police on guard
to keep him out. When he appeared at the
capitol and attempted to enter his office
there was a violent struggle in the cor
ridor.
Boyd gave up and asked the courts for a
mandamus to compel the governor to allow
him to resume charge Of the office, as
sorting that he had no power to suspend
him without the consent of the senate.
1t is understood that the governor has
laid the situation before President Roose-
welt.
Stamp Tax Unconstitutional.
The supreme court reversed the decision
Of Judge Little of Hilo upholding the con-
stitutionality Of the territorial law impos-
ing a stamp tax on certain documents.
United States Attorney Breckons has be-
gun suit to condemn the steamer Julia F.
Whalen, in which Captain Rosehill recently
made his trip to Marcus island In the hope
of getting the island away from the Jap
anese. W.. G. Peacock, the owner Of the
schooner, is the defendant. and is charged
with having sworn that he was an Ameri-
can citizen In order to get an American
register for his vessel, when in fact he
was a British subject. The sum OF $500
or the vessel is demanded as a forfeit.
Last night saw the end Of the most ear
nestly contested political campaign Hawaii

two parties in the field, the home rulers,
headed by Mr.. Wilcox, who is a candidate
for reelection to congress and is endorsed
by the democrats, and the republicans, led
by Prince Cupid Kalanianaole.

FINE SPECTACLE AND
GOOD OBJECT LESSON
Maneuver Is Comprised In an Effort to
March a Wagon Train Through
Enemy's Country.

FORT RILEY, Kan, Oct. 14.-As
spectacle the military maneuvers OF To-
day would be difficult to equal; as an
object lesson to the officers of the ma
tional guard, for which purpose it was
carried out. it was full of instruction and
suggestion upon points of actual war serv-
ice which they could have obtained In no
other way. The weather conditions We're
perfect and the marching and the attack
and defense was full of snap and DASH
neuver was comprised in the effort to
march an urgently needed wagon train
through the enemys country. The de.
Tense of the wagon train was IN char0e or
M. 6. Sanno, of the Eighteenth infantry,
and the attacking force, which endeavor-
ed to cut off and cripple the train, was
under the direction of Capt. T. r. Riv-
ers, of the Fourth cavalry
AT the end, OF the maneuvers 1t was
estima ed mat Capl. hlVeIs. aad cr1ppled
about 35 to 40 per cent of the wagons, but
he had suffered a heavy loss in accom-
pliShing that much of his task. He had
in his command eight companies of cav
dent to long-range rifle and artillery fire,
three of his eight companies were wiped
off the map of the maneuyerS by attempt
ing to charge strong line Of infantry in
position
Although the umpires gave no decision,
it was the opinion Of the officers that the
wagon train would have reached its des-
tination, less the destruction caused by
the artillery fire.
As in ali the previous maneuvers the
most care was taken by the officers of
the regular army to see that the officers
of the national guard saw everything pos
sible. The methods of loading and hand
ling pack mules and army wagons We're
carefully explained, and the military Tea
lures of the maneuvers made as clear as

NEW YORK, Oct. 4.-Ever since
last Tuesday, when James Burke, an
electrician, slid from the roof Of the
Metropolitan opera house porch into
Inconsistencies, the surgeons Of the
New York hospital have had a most
interesting patient on their hands All
established precedents would seem to
show the man should have died in
stantly, or at least a short time after
his fall, as his skull was fractured at
the base and his neck was broken be-
tween the sixth and seventh vertebrae.
Much to the amazenent OF the sur
geons, however, the man is still living,
though unconscious. And, more than.
that, the surgeons say. there is bare
possibility he may recover, though, of
course, he always will be helpless.
Should he recover or live for few
years or even months, his case will be
one Of the wonders Of surgery, as there
are few instances where man SO
terribly injured as Burke lived even SO
long as he has now. The celebrated
case Of young Duryea is not a parallel,
as he suffered from no fractured skull
AN injury that in itself generally
causes death, where the fracture is at
the base. Nor is the case of the man
who was found with a broken neck in
Coney Island similar one, for the

but they cannot be relied upon for
serious adventures.
Baldwin started out to reach the
pole by the way of Franz Joseph Land.
From the amount of money expended,
the elaborate arrangements and the
reports of an exhaustive outfit, we
have supposed that Baldwin would get
very near to the pole. An expedition
starting out in this manner should
succeed. But evidently something Is
needed besides men, dogs and money.
There must be harmony among the.
members of an expedition, absolute
unity Of effort
There was never an expedition
without great deal of temper. In
Baldwin's case we do not know the
origin Of the trouble, but there does
certainly seem to have been an un-
usual amount of dissatisfaction. 1t is
TO this that We must ascribe Baldwin's
present misfortune"

THE HALLETT GLACIER
IN ESTES PARK, COLORADO
Beautiful Effects Seen in a Hall of
This Wonderful River of Ice.

Hto f0IV6F OF Ice.
Above Estes Park on the slope of
Hague's peak is a beautiful mass of
moving sea green 1ce-the Hallett
glacier. This glacier is not a large
one, but is one of the most beautiful of
natures pictures. Its gray and green
slopes. ribbed and shaped by wind and
weather, crevassed bv movement and
distractions, piled here and there rocks
or new drifted snow, sweep steeply
down from the crags above and break
UP into splendid icebergs in lake be-
low, piling it's debris into historic mo-
raines.
The magnificent crevasses in the
glacier entice one to explore their Won
ders. Judge Hallett-for whom the
glacier is named-nearly lost his life
in one of these crevasses. Always
snowy, these crystal crevasses have
never been so wonderful as at present;
the drouth and warm weather have
sculptured and toned them into artis-
tic halls of many colored translucent
marble.
J. H. Mackie, with a feeling for the
beautiful and with love for adven-
ture, descended into a crevasse, and
after many trials succeeded in making
an excellent photograph of the interior
Of a great crystal room, which extends
from the big crevasse. This grand ice
arched room is more than forty feet in
length, nine to twelve feet high and
from twelve to twenty feet wide.
The ice is dense and Of green, blue
and grayish color. Seen under the
softened prismatic colors of the sun
light passing through the translucent
ice it Is an enhancing spectacle. On
the smooth portion of the floor the
light falls in mosaic forms, interspers-
ed here and there with gray stalag-
mite, or coil of ice cordage.
The arching roof is a wealth of gran
ular crystals and limpid stalactites.
There are nichee and slender columns,
canoes, beautiful and dim, beneath
new enamel; half broken screens of icy
fretwork, and panels splashed with
drops that have frozen into grapelike
clusters.--Denver News.
