ALL WERE ENGLISH TO Her
eelIicose Wife Of French Attaehe
0ldnt Recognize Americans.

oN0u htbOSSO8ts&S NTUOUSSQUOs
A French woman with bitter
tongue who is the wife Of one of the
attaches Of the French embassy at
Rome has succeeded in getting her
husband into dificulties with his su-
periors. and all because she did not
know the difference between an Eng.
>lishman and an American.
The French attache and his wife
lived in a fiat beneath newly arrived
American couple, and the French wom-
an burned in her stove a particularly
sooty kind of soft coal which made
endless trouble for her neighbors
overhead. y
The American finally wrote polite
note asking the lady if she could not
use some other kind of fuel.
Within half an hour the American
received highly bellicose reply ad
dressed to The Englishman on the
fifth floor" 1t informed him that he
was exceedingly impel tinent, and that
he had better take his insolent orders
to the Transvaal and rid Europe of
the presence of such an obnoxious
creature.
The American sent the note to the
landlord. The landlord forwarded it
to the French embassy
The embassy formally excused itself
from taking any official action in the
matter. Then it proceeded to make
it so hot for the poor attache and his.
bellicose wife that he has since left
the embassy, after assuring his wife
that in future he will keep an eye on
the notes she writes to strangers.

SUNDAY SCHOOL
TALKS NOT
WANTED
Plain Talk InduIged in at the
Chamber of Commerce Meet
ing This Morning Must Show
Results,

The Chamber of Commerce at it's
meeting this morning appointed a COM
mtttee which is to lay out a definite
plan of work through which to encour-
age tourist travel to Hawaii, formu-
late ways and means for obtaining the
funds necessary and confer with the
committee already appointed by the
Merchants Association for a similar
object. Lecturer Weedon's talks to
Sunday School children were severely
critisized and he will be requested to
talk to adults in the future.
The meeting today was called for the
purpose of discussing the report of F.
NJ. Swanzy J. J. Kennedy and j. G..
Spencer on the various propositions
submitted to the Chamber for it's sup
port. These included advertising and
financial support for the book to be
published by the Pioneer Advertising
Company, the Friend, Sunset Magazine,
Paradise of the Pacific and a demand
for literature and some sugges tions by
lecturer Weldon.
The committees recommendations re-
suited in the appointment of a commit
tee on the encouragement of tourist
travel, named by the chair as fol-
lows. c. L. Wight, chairman, G.. p.
Wilder and F. j. Lowrey. Mr.. Swanzy
reading the report of his committee,
stated that while making certain re-
concentrations, the committee did not
believe in intermittent advertising but
in concerted effort. That the best ad-
vertising was produced by visitors.
Japan was cited as a advertising
country visited largely by tourists be-
cause of its surroundings. He advised
the work of a body of men who should
endeaVOr TO enhance natural adVan-
tages on all the islands by perfecting
Transportation and hotels on the prin-
ciple that tourists desired comforts and
conveniences as well as scenery and
climate.
Taking the applications separately,
that of the Pioneer Advertising Com
pany is held over until proofs are ready
to be submitted. The new committee
will have it in charge and are favorably
disposed towards the proposed book.
The proposal of the Friend was not ac-
cepted from purely business stand
point The interest of the issue was
appreciated but the circulation thought
not to justify the expenditure asked
for. The Chamber members will lib
orally subscribe towards the issue how
ever for sentimental reasons. -.-..-.-.-

WILL ASK OSCAR
TO FIX DAMAGES
PECULIAR POSITION IN WHICH
AMERICA FINDS HERSELF IN
SAMOAN ARBITRATION MATTER.

WASHINGTON, Nov 27.-The State
Department is preparing to present to
King Oscar, the arbitrator of the is
sues between the United States and
England on the one side and Germany
on the other, growing out of the Sa-
MOAN troubles of 1892 the second phase
of the case, and finds itself in pecu-
liar position. The recent decision of
King Oscar touched only the principle
involved. namely, the liability of the
United States and Great Britain for
damages sustained by foreigners as a
result of joint naval operations. That
having been decided against the Unit
ed States and Great Britain and in fav-
or of Germany, the next step in order
is to prepare and submit to the ar
bitrator detailed statements of the in
dividual losses. BY the terms of the
arbitration treaty each of the countries
concerned undertook to look after the
claims of it's own citizens. Thus it hap
pens in the case of the United States
that the Government is in the peculiar
position of presenting to the arbitrator
for payment the claims of number of
American citizens after it had, through
elaborate argument presented to the ar
bitrator by special counsel, specifically
denied liability for any such claims.

THE LAND OFFICE
AND NEW METHODS
LAND COMMISSIONER BOYD IS
IN PERFECT HARMONY WITH
SENATE RECOMMENDATIONS.

Land Commissioner E. S. Boyd de-
clares himself in thorough accord with
the comments of the committee of SEN
ators which reported on his depart
ment in the matter of the bookkeeping
system and the need of a reform. The
committee found that the methods of
keeping the records of the department.
were "obsolete and cumbersome" and
it was recommended that a more mo-
dern method be instituted.
THE system in vogue is the one that
has been in vogue for a long time, and
was the one here when l took hold,
said Commissioner Boyd, land it has
been continued practically without
change. l agree that a change is de-
sirable and shall take steps to see that
a less complicated system is introduced.
The records are voluminous ones, and
the matter of devising a better system
of bookkeeping is one calling for a good
deal of study. 1 shall secure expert ad-
vice and look into the methods of some
of the large corporations which have to
keep records like those of the land de-
partment The keeping up of the re-
cords of all leases, sales, payments, ETC.,
in this department calls for the best
kind of bookkeeping system that can be
devised"
AS to the proposed investigation OF
accusations that there had been favor
itsm shown in the department, Boyd is
satisfied that the committee decided to
have a thorough investigation between
now and the regular session of the
senate, and thinks that the cases on
the other islands will be shown to have
been all right when the committee
completes it's work.

vacation, but during his visit he con-

future of the local station.
THE prospects" said DR.. Cofer, "are
very excellent for this station. The
sentiment seemed to be that this place
should be made thoroughly up-to-date
quarantine station. It's Importance is
fully appreciated, and the intention is,
believe, to equip in every way that
will make it a fine station"
Dr. Cofer visited many of the lead

child returned with him.
