FEARS COLONIAL PLAN
Buencamino Advises Against
Colonial Plan for Governing
Filipinos.
Answers Some Sharp Questions
by the Antis.-Iiumanity OF
American Army.
Aguinaldo's Prison Palatiai
Residence Costing $500 a
Month.

Washington, June 5.-Senor Buenca-
the committee on insular affairs ex-
planning the address to the American
congress made by him advocating Phil
ippine independence. He said the or
iginal document showed that he wrote
it as Aguinaldo's secretary. He said
he might be obliged to divulge some Sc
crets of Agoncillo and Lopez. He stat
ed there were four Filipino agents
abroad working at odds and making
independence impossible.
Some sharp talk occurred between
Chairman Cooper and Representative
Jones over questions put to the wit
ness, especially regarding religious
matters in the Philippines.
Chairman Cooper declared that in
putting the questions palbable at
tempt was being made to arouse reli-
gious prejudice. Mr.. Jones commented
en- the fact that the witness, who had
his views, enjoyed fat Of
fee" while Aguinalto was a prisoner.
Senior Buencamino stated that he as
well as Aguinaido had been captured,
and that he was alive today was due to
the humanity of the American army.
The witness said Aguinaldo had a pail
ace for prison. 1t was formerly occu-
pied by Commissioner Worcester, and
the government paid $500 Mexican per
as rental for it. 1t is as large as
the white house In Washington. The
witness said Aguinaldo lived in this
house with his family, with a physician
at his disposal, retinue of servants, a
carriage and an allowance to provide
food for the establishment.
Senior Buencamino resented the sug-
gestion that Il government office had
his testimony favorable to
the United States, and declared that
his law practice at Manila was worth
$1,000 a month, so that the $3.50 paid
him as salary could not have been an
to him to sacrifice his bust
ness. He strongly opposed colonial
system, declaring that system made
Spanish rule a failure, saying that fall
ure should be warning to the United
States. For the present, he said, the
Filipinos were obliged to have Ameri-
can guidance, as they had just emerged
from Spanish darkness into American

Pearls in Pike River.

Menominee, Mich, June 5.-There
has been a small stampede from the
northern towns to the Pike river during
the past few days on account of the
fact that several log drivers have pick
ed up clam shells containing pearls.
Frank Rasor. a young fisherman of
this city, showed evidence of remarka-

President Considers Strike.

Washington, June 5.-President
Roosevelt spent some time yesterday
afternoon considering proposition of
the New York board of trade and
transportation that he appoint COM
missioner to investigate the strike stu
alton in the anthracite region, with the
view to effecting an arbitration of the
differences between the miners and OPP
orators. 1t Is stated that the president
has not yet decided what action he
will take in response to the suggestion.
Senator Hanna of the civic fedora
ton, when interviewed last night, pro-
fessed to know nothing of the New
York boards action, but 1t is intimated
in official circles that If commissioner
is appointed the president will look to
the senator to undertake the task.

wonderfully profitable is beyond ques-
ton. The Kimberley diamond mines.
about coo miles from Cape Town, now
supply IS per cent of the diamonds of
commerce, altho their existence was
unknown prior to 1867, and the mines
have thus been in operation but about
thirty years. 1t is estimated that $780,
100000 worth of rough diamonds, worth
double that sum after cutting have
been produced from the Kimberley
mines since their opening in 1862. and
this enormous production would have
been greatly increased but for the fact
that the owners of the various mines
there formed an agreement to limit the
output so as not to materially exceed
the worlds annual consumption.
Equally wonderful and promising are
the great "Witwatersrand" gold fields
OF South Africa, better known as the
Johannesburg" mines. Gold was dis
covered there in 1888, and in 1884 the
value of the gold product was about
$4,000. 1t increased with startling
rapidity, the product of 1888 being
about $5,000,000; that of 1890. 100000
GEO; 1892, over $20.000000; 1895, over
$i0,00000O: and 1897 and $685. about
SSt'.000.000. Work in these mines has
been practically suspended during the
war in progress in that section within
the past two years. The gold produce
ton of the Rand" since 1884 has been
over S3o0,000,000. and careful surveys
of the field by experts show beyond
question that the gold in sight prob-
ably amounts TO s3.5O0000,O00, while the
large number of mines in adjacent ter
ritory, particularly those of Rhodesia.
whose output was valued at over 81
50p,0OO last year, gives promise of adj
ditional supplies. SO that it seems
that South Africa will for
many years continue to be- as it is now.
the largest producing section of
the world.

Fallen from Grace.

Santa Cruz, Cal, June 5.-Rev. James
Laurier Rogers, formerly a well-known
Baptist minister, who recently en-
braced Mohamnedanism, has confessed
himself guilty of arson and is now in
custody. He set fire to several build
ugs at a dairy where he was working
for the benefit of his health, as he ex-
planned. His motive for the crime, he
says. was revenge on those who had
compelled him to do mental service. The
fire destroyed his clerical library, three
ministerial suits and a gold watch pre-
scented to him by his former congrega-
ton at Ocala, Fla. While in charge of
4 church at Jacksonville he taught En-
glish to many Cuban refugees. He will,
be examined as to his sanity.

of great and distinguished people pass
ing through our portals. Soldiers, sal
lors, diplomats, and scions of royalty
pass along the highway, and if we care
about it we can get a glimpse of them
and learn something of themselves, as
well as knowing them by repute. Nine
times out of ten the great ones of the
earth prove very insignificant in their
personality. There are few places where
there is more chance of seeing well
known people than in Honolulu. 1t is

making as an industry, means the es-
adjustment of central lace art
school, from whence the knowledge
would pass from district to district of

day, and an industry is not establish

established this industry in Ireland,
where hundreds of thousands of dol

duced by the English into some parts
of China, where the Star is informed
that orders many months deep are on

If we are to do anything of value in
this line, we must do it thoroughly, we
must do it professionally and not in a
reason why we should not train the
fingers to work deftly at this filmy

gers we will also need the artistic eye
and brain, which will furnish original
ideas and patterns for the deft fingers
to carry out To those who are en-
gagged in large operations of argicul-
ture, this proposition may seem vision

sale of lace is a commercial venture,

MYSTERIES.

The finding Of the remains of Hornet

suicide and to hole himself away so
that even a most diligent search will

the trees and un6erbrush are so thick
that anyone can hide away, and only
accident brings the remains to light.
If men can hide their stills away,
within a few miles of the city, when
they are being hunted for by the police
and the revenue officers, it certainly is
not very difficult for a man who is
tired Of life to find a secluded and sell
dom visited spot in which to bring that
life to an untimely conclusion. Many
of the disappearance can be account

out of sight and many theories are put

but in a majority of cases suicide is

In the case of Hornet it seems very
probable that the remains have been

which there was no clue. Witness the
