What July Owes Us
Chicago Tribune.

From the Chicago Tribune.
July owes us immunity from the tyr
Ianny OF the umbrella and from the
necessity OF WEARING winter under
wear 1t should permit us to contem-
plate frozen dainties' without caus-
ing teeth to chatter and to attend sum-
mer gardens unmuffed in furs. To
women it owes opportunities for wear
ing the lawns that have long languiEh-
ed in closet, and of carrying the gay
sunshades that have for many weeks
been supplanted by the somber UNI
brella. To the gardener July owes the
pleasure OF going about his domains
without the necessity Of wearing rub
Der boots and Of using the hose which
has long sighed for the touch Of van
ished hand. The golf player hopes ion
unswamped golf grounds during this
month"; and the croquet lover dares tC
hope that all the colors of his stake
will be out of. water. OF course, July
may be as untrue to its nature as was
June. out if there is wetness in its wake
human nature will rise to invent some
rain preventing machine

this bill should be paid, and when
this was done they granted the fran
chise on It's merits. They had no need
of making a bargain, since the means
for its collection were in the hands OF
the city officials. To attempt to twist
and distort this simple transacticn. is
on a par with a great deal Of preiudiced
newspaper gush which we have read
lately.

There has been a great dead of fool

whereby the Peoples railway was to
pay the city a sum due and owing in ex-
change for an extension Of its fran

Of loose talk which brings the utter

HAD TO MAN THE PUMPS.

SAN FRANCISCO, November o.
During the entire voyage of the Anne
rican ship William H. Macy from
Ladysmith the crew was compelled to
man the pumps to KEEP the vessel from
sinking. When the ship arrived in
port today she was leaking at the rate
of two inches an hour. The William H.
Macy left Ladysmith fifteen days ago
with 5000 tons of coal. Scarcely had
she reached the open sea when she
was beset by a fierce southeast gale.
The ship labored heavily and a leak
was sprung. Gale followed gale, and
the strain on the vessels timbers caus-
ed her seams to open. The water COM
menced pouring in and all hands were
ordered to the pumps. Watch and
watch the men stood at the pumps and
it was only by continual work that the
water was kept from gaining in the
hold. The William H. Macy will be
discharged and repaired.

FOOTBALL GAME SATURDAY.

An announcement has been made by
the oahu College Foot Ball Team to the
effect that the lineup on Saturday for
the match with the Honolulu Athletic
Club will be the same as that of the
victorious team of last Saturday
against the Males. The H. A. C.s will
not have the big Yale man at center, as
Cunha has temporarily at any rate,
dropped athletics for business. c. F.
Chillingworth is the captain and quar-
terback Russell vice captain. Hough-
failing will take Cunha's position at
center. Joy and Chillingworth will play
tackles and two Cocketts guards. Scott
and Lawrence are scheduled for the
ends. The rest of the lineup is not de-
cided upon. The lineup is a heavy one
throughout, far heavier than the Pu-
nahous, and the team is fairly quick
considering weights. The collegians
have no occasion to feel down-hearted
over the results, however, if they can

THE HEARST COMPLAINT.
Railroads Have Until goth to Answer
Charges.

WASHINGTON, November 5.-The
Interstate Commerce commission TOOK
action today on the complaint of Will
liam Randolph Hearst against the an
thracite coal carrying railroad COM
panies. Notice of the complaint, which
was formally before the commission to-
day, was sent to the defendants. The
compares are the Philadelphia and
Reading; Lehigh Valley; Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western; Central of
New Jersey; Susquehanna and Western
Erie; New York. Ontario and WESTERN
Delaware and Hudson; Pennsylvania
and the Baltimore and Ohio. The rail-
roads have until November goth to file
their answers.
The complaint alleges that the rates
subject the consumers and such pro-
ducers as are not common carriers or
corporations owned and controlled by
common carriers to unreasonable pre-
JUDGE and disadvantage, in violation Oh
the Interstate Commerce Act.
1t charges that the rates are discri-
minating and prejudical to the interests
of dealers and consumers of anthracite
coal, as compared with the transporta-
ton ratesfor bituminOus coal for much
longer distances and also as compared
with the defendants rates and charges
on other carload freight traffic general

FIVE DOLLARS
FOR CAMPAIG
MONEY GIVEN BY DEMOCRATS OF
KING COUNTY FOR STATE FUND.
IT WAS BORROWED.

SEATTLE, October 26.-Everybody
has heard of the man that stood up in
his pew as the collection plate was
being passed around and loudly sang
the hymn that counsels spreading the
gospel among the heather. And the
closer the plate came the louder he
sang and the more he ignored the col
lection. That is exactly the position
of Democrats in King county. They
shouted that the Jeffersonian gospel
should be spread among the unenlight-
ened-and contribute So to the cam
paign fund
The Democrats of King county have
contributed just S. to propagate their
beliefs in the state, and the contribution
came in one sum, a S. note being in
closed in an anonymous letter to the Sc
cretary of the state committee. At
present the guiding spirits of that COM
mittee are undecided as to whether they
shall spread So worth of Democratic
principles with the money or have the
note framed as a lasting memorial to
the Bourbon spirit of King county.
The force of this Carnegie-like gift is
increased by the fact that a few days
ago the secretary of the county COM
mittee protested to the state committee
against the manner in which the King
county Democracy was being drained
of it's treasure for the benefit of the
state at large.
1t must not be concluded however,
that the anonymous generosity, for in
his letter he states that he took the pre-
caution of borrowing the IS. 1t looks
as if the man that loaned it will be out
of his money for some time.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
Various Advertising Schemes Before
That Body.

Local endeavors to interest tourists
and the outer world in the beauties of
Honolulu made up the prime subject
of the Chamber of Commerce meeting
held yesterday afternoon. Secretary
j. G. Spencer read communications
from the Paradise of the Pacific, The
Pioneer Publishing Company and the
Friend asking the endorsement and
help of the Chamber.
The Paradise of the Pacific proposes
to get out an elaborate Christmas num-
Der profusely illustrated and, as in
former years, asks the Chamber TO
subscribe for a certain number of
copies for distribution and recommen-
ton to Honolulu merchants to advertise
in the periodical. The Pioneer Adver-
Using Company intends issuing book
on the islands containing complete in
formation for the tourist, statistical
and otherwise and very largely illus
trated. The Merchants Association
has already endorsed this scheme.
The Friend is getting out a special
edition after sixty years of issuance. A
big circulation is promised and already
subscribed for. The edition will be
widely illustrated and the management
asks for the insertion of an article, to
be appropriately illustrated and spe-
cially written for the merchants of the
city. The Chamber of Commerce and
the Merchants Association are asked
to combine in paying for this article.
In view of the number of applications
on this subject, basing their merits on
Their value for attracting attention to
the islands and their advantages of
living here, a committee was formed of
which F. NJ. Swanzy is the chairman.

BRUTE RECEIVED
PROPER SENTENCE
JOHN COMES GOES TO PRISON
FOR FIVE YEARS AND FINED
$1OOO-COURT NOTES.

John Comes yesterday received
practically a life sentence from Judge
De Bolt, the sentence being the first
heavy one the judge has imposed.
Comes was found guilty by jury of a
most horrible assault upon little girl
five years old. He is a man over 80
years of age, and had no defense to Of
fer. He asked for mercy on the ground
that he was drunk when he committed
his brutal crime.
Deputy Attorney General Douthitt
asked the court to impose the heaviest
possible sentence and the court did 80,
ordering that Comes be imprisoned at
hard labor for five years and fined a
thousand dollars. The thousand dol
lar fine will have to be worked out at
the rate of fifty cents a day, so that
Comes is really in for over ten years,
excluding costs. The jurors in the
case were A. *. Vierra, j. d. Cockett,
w. L. Peterson, L. j. N. Hipa, Henry
Hickey, G. A. c. Maertens, b. S. Greg
Dry, Caesar Nierra, X. b. Porter, Let
Z. Fernandez, Warren Boyle and John
Makaena.
Ichihasi, alias Kadoka was found
guilty of assault and battery, was sem
fenced to four months hard labor.
In the case of Pedro Moline, found
guilty of receiving stolen goods, Attor-
ney H. w. Robinson made a plea that
imprisonment was not allowable under
the statute, as the defendant had made
restitution of the property received UNI
lawfully by him. The court overruled
the plea and gave Moline a sentence of
three months and fine of $25.
In the case of A. Sac, charged with
assault and battery, a nolle proseuui
was entered.

is kind, good husband, an amiable

FREE FROM DEBT.
Western College at Toledo Clears on
All Membranes and II Gem
eral Jubilee Is Held.

Western college at Toledo is out Of
debt, the first time in all its history.
At citizens meeting in Hotel Toledo
they finished raising the $4,000, and
made little surplus for contingent
expenses besides. When President
Lewis Bookwalter took charge of the
college in 1894 it was $4,000 in debt
and had almost no students. In six
years students We're secured and the
debt reduced to $4,000. Then an effort
was made to put it out of debt. All con-
tributions were made conditional on
getting the full amount before Janu-
airy l, 1902. The cooperating territory
was canvassed after good start had
been made at home, and two weeks
ago President Bookwalter and his eff.
cient field secretary, Rev. n. Il. Hicks
came home with $S,242 to raise. This
was raised and a general jubilee was
held,
