the possibilities for profitable in
vestment here. H. J. Croker, a San
Francisco merchant and capitalist, and
Mrs. Croker came down to spend a few
weeks in the islands. Mr.. Croker is

But BattIeship Oregon Will Get a
Number of Recruits in
Honolulu.

No word was received from the
Coast as to the exact sailing date of the
battleship Oregon from San Francisco
for the Asiatic station by way of Ho-
nolulu, but private letters were re-
ceived saying that the man of war was
still waiting for crew The crew will
be picked up on the Coast and in the
East, and on the vessels arrival here
about fifteen men who have been re-

Captain Rodman finds such rush
of recruits coming to him that he is
able to pick very good men. The
Iroquois is now so full OF rockies"
that the captain has had to relax his

A retired naval man in Honolulu,
who has seen most of the recruits here,
states that they are fine class of men.
They are a well made lot, physically,
and much superior to the run of fell
lows picked up for the navy in the
larger American sea ports. A great

MORE TROUBLE
FOR THE HERMAN
Sutton TO Meet Treasure Schooner
in Sydney and Oppose
Hoffman.

Speeding away southwark for Sgd
ney on the steamer Sierra is George
w. Sutton, who has authorizations
and orders from the syndicate search
ing for the Cocos island treasure, said
to amount to sixty millions and which
is said to be buried on some South
Sea island, which will be a veritable
bombshell when dropped aboard the
treasure steamer Herman, which spent
some time at Honolulu recently.
Sutton was a member of the original
party which came from San Francis
co in the Herman and had so much
pilikia while in Honolulu. AS the boat
was leaving here, Hoffman, brother
of Southland Hoffman of Honolulu, and
Sutton had trouble. Sutton and two
friends wanted Hoffman to leave the
party here. Hoffman refused, and,
armed to the teeth, boarded the little
vessel with Frank Sharretts. Seeing
that some shooting might occur, SUIT
ton and his two friends made arrange
ments with Captain Brown for him to
make a leisurely cruise to Sydney and
wait there until Sutton had time to go
back to the syndicate and get author
ity to put Hoffman out of the enter
prise.
hn loft Ii Hf,ffn1
and Sharretts thought that Brown
would take them direct to the treasure
island and that in few weeks they
would be simply swimming in old
Spanish gold coins. But Brown decided
to fool them, and sent Sutton on his
mission, which has proved successful.
When seen yesterday during the stay
of the Sierra in port Sutton said that
Hoffman would be put off the vessel
at Sydney and that the schooner would
remain there until about January, as
the island where the treasure is located
is in the paths of hurricanes and can
not be easily reached before that time.
uOH L Ln1ilh lnclL LuStS Will OC any
shooting said Sutton, when l meet
Hoffman this time, but I've got the
shooting irons along, as usual. DR..
Luce and Chetwood, who also left the
schooner at Honolulu, will join the
vessel again at Sydney, and 1 think it
will be next September before we can
complete our enterprise and arrive
back at San Francisco.
81 don't think that Brown will ma
room Hoffman on any South Sea island,
as he threatened when leaving Homo
lulu, but think that Hoffman may
have found out by this time that old
Captain Brown is the boss of the yes
sell"
Mr.. Sutton is accompanied by D.
Stoney, a San Francisco man who has
invested money in the enterprise of
finding the missing gold.

Attacked by, a Whale.

NORFOLK ISLAND, September 81.
"A most unfortunate and fatal acct
dent, the first of the kind that has ever
occurred here, happened to one of No.
Company's whaling boats when whal
ing off the island on the 10th instant,
whereby the man in charge, Byron
Adams, the boat header, lost his life.
1t appears that the boat went out from
the Casctde in the morning, and got
fast shortly after, and while the crew
were busily engaged lancing the
whale another whale, which nobody
appears to have seen distinctly, sud
denly appeared alongside Of them, and
striking with its flukes, stove the boat
badly, and fatally injured the header,
Byron Adams. The crew at once cut
cut the line, tied the oars across to
keep the boat upright, and otherwise
took all the precautions they could for
the safety of their lives; nevertheless,
the men had a trying time of it for
over an hour in the water before the
mates boat got up and rescued them.
While in the water the injured man,
who had some life left in him, was
supported by two of the men, but ex-
pired shortly after being picked up.
The distress signal, two watts, set by
the boat had been observed from the
shore, and the news spread very quick
ly, so that when the boat approached
the Cascade landing with the sad bur-
then there were number of people
present, and the scene, the weeping wo-
men and the men with their anxious
looks, was very saddening indeed, and
one not likely to be forgotten.

The two mail steamers, the Sierra
and the Peru, spent the whole day in
Honolulu yesterday aud did not get
away for their respective destinations
until late at night. The cause of their

A District Flower.
he Editor of The Evening Star:

10 the Editor OF The Evening star:
The Evening Star Of December 1 called
attention to the desirabiity of a floral en-
blem for the District Of Columbia, and gave
a list Of most of the state flowers which
have been chosen by the states and terri
tories.
France has her lily, England her rose
And ireland her shamrock so green"
And nearly half the states and territories
in this country have adopted more or less
appropriate plants for floral emblems. The
California poppy, a very dainty and beau
tiful plant, is native in California, and is
quite distinct from the old world peoples
cultivated in our eastern gardens. The
blue columbine of Colorado is native In that
state and grows more abundantly there
than anywhere else. Michigan and Arkan-
sas both have several plants characteristic
of their native horas that would have been
appropriate as state flowers, but they have
chosen the apple blossom, pretty enough as
a flower but common In cultivation in
nearly every state and territory, and not
even native on the American continent.
The same is true in greater degree of the
red clover Of Vermont, for that state Is not

Made His Own False Keys.

There were also found in his room about
200 keys. Dickinson always entered houses
by means of false keys Being an expert
machinist, Dickinson made his keys him
self.
Another important find was an electric
pocket lamp, which explains the fact that
neither candle grease nor half-burned
matches were found in any of the houses
robbed. Dickinson did not confine himself
to silVerWare, but also stole jewelry, brio
a-brac, musical instruments, and even chill

son, is still suffering from shock over dis
covering that his associate was burglar
and was only using his business as blind

suggestion, backed by sufficient cash, he
was taken in as partner.

Mr.. We'll. He worked for me as a sales
man, and showed rare ability. Two months
ago he proposed that 1 take him In as a
partner. He had money and bought an In
terest in the concern.
He was here every morning bright and
early, and all day long he paid strict at
tention to business l rejoiced that 1 had
secured so diligent a partner. I never had
a suspicion that he was anything but q
business man, although 1 knew that he
occupied himself a great deal in the fash
ioning of tools. 1 ascribed this to his taste
for mechanics
1t looks as If Dickinson, who is about
thirty-fve years old, had been a burglar
over a dozen years. 1t was testified today
that he had served prison terms in Boston,
Trenton and Charleston. Over one hundred
robberies are believed to have been com
mitted by Dickinson here. He was held for
court.
