SAN FRANCISCO. June 2S.--Gaston
J. Doisse. foreman of the Hawaiian Ca
zette Companys press room, has had
a harrow escape from death Iloisse
has been FOR five weeks at the French
hospital here. ~ with typhoid fever. He
~ now convalosC and expects to re-
turn on the Alameda which leaves here
ON July i2 Boissc has lived In Homo
lulu for six years and came up here Tor
his first visit home i'm that time on
April ei lie had lots of fun for n fort
night, and then was stricken down.
Only his athletic training saved him
from passing away. Boisse was deliri-
Gus for many DAYS. and once while un-
der the impression that he was being
killed by the hospital attendants, he
lcaped out of bed and hurled himself
at the nurse. Alphonse Diderot. AL
phcnse was badly bruised and ran for
his life. This gave the head nurse an
opportunity To ask What is CASTOR
after" and the pursued n chance to
answer: After me, your dear AL
phonse!" Boisse is still weak but is
gaining flesh at the rate of pound a
day. He will spend few days with
relatives at Corte MADEIRA before he
sails for Hawaii.
Charles Guest, who has been the rep
resentatiVe of Milliken Brothers iron
work in Honolulu. has recovered from
an operation for appendicitis. Guest is
well known in Hawaii. He was taken
ill here and went to the Waldeck Hos
pital. Now he will have the great
pleasure of taking his vermiform nui-
sance to South Africa in his pocket. 1t
has become quite the fad to have one s
extracted appendix mounted suitably
as a pocket-piece. In New York there
ig a social club formed OF those who
are minus this useless part of one S
anatomy, and at the meetings of the
members they take delight in reciting
their experiences under the surgeon $
knife.
II. c. Freck. formerly of the Adver-
tiser's art staff and who has been
making a series of funny pictures for
the colored supplement of the Sunday
Chronicle. has gone East. Freck made
a big hit here. but considered the OPP
portunities in the East superior. He
has developed as cartoonist very
much since leaving Honolulu, and un-
doubtedly has "A brilliant future.
Ralph .. Yardley, who earned fame
as the Advertisers cartoonist, has taxi
on a desk in the Chronicles art room,
al least for while. Yardley has been
spending several weeks with his fami-
ly in Stockton, and is now just getting
down to work again. He longs for the
sunny skies of Hawaii, and 1t would
not surprise me If he journeyed down
there again within a year
An editorial paragraph in the Chron-
icle explains the foolish error made in
the newspapers which stated that Judge
Estee's wife had died in New York, as
follows: 1T appears that the Brooklyn
Eagle was responsible for the publ
cation of the erroneous story that a
former wife of Judge Morris NJ. Estee
had died in a clearinghouse in that
city. Just how the bunder was made
is not clear&but it was doubtless due To
the fact that the office of the Eagle Is
infested by some one who thinks he
knows something about California af-
fairs Not long ago the Eagle publish
ed a story regarding the pastor of EN-
manuel Church in this city which ii
was compelled to retract. The TWO
yarns bear the same earmarks, and
probably had the same origin"
