My Dear General:
Your letter of the 9th inst, came
safe to hand, as we'll as your official re-
port of the affair Hainesville, for both
of which please to accept my thanks.
Though your name no longer appears
on the Roster of the Brigade, yet your
history is identified with it's history
and though in the Providence of an
all wise God we may no longer be per-
mitted to serve together in the same
organization, yet trust that
We may both meet each other often,
the fruits of lasting peace
for which you have labored so hard
and successfully.
Should you ever come near me either
in peace or war, hope that you will
not fail to honor me with a call.
Your much attached friend,
T. J. JACKSON.

IL made that papers which before cost
only $3.50 are paid for at the rate of
Sl250 by the patrons Of the present con-
sulate. 1t is alleged that an affidavit
was sent making charges connecting
the consul with opium transactions.
The fact that the matter has reach
ed this stage creates only satisfaction
among the friends of the consul who
say they will be able to prove the
counter allegations they will make. and
that they want TO see the whole matter
sfted to the bottom.

ian hotel greeting Bishop Nichols and
Miss Nichols, and extending to them
the welcome of the city. The reception

drews and st. Clements drew to the

SOME LOCAL ITEMS.
(From Wednesdays daily.)

The Honolulu Athletic Club team has
been withdrawn from the athletic con-
tests to be decided next Saturday, and
the club will be unrepresented at the
meeting.
The directors of the club decided on
this course owing to their team having
been weakened by several unlocked for
occurrences, and on account of a lack
of enthusiasm among the rank and file
of the clubs athletes.
The withdrawal of the team is greatly
to be regretted, for it viii deprive the
meeting of a great deal of the interest
which would otherwise have been at
tached to it. and will leave number
of men who have trained conscientious
ly without club to run for.
Meanwhile the Male Ilimas have been
steadily strengthening their forces un-
til today they are conceded to have "a
show for the premier honors. one of
their men, Ben Clarke, entered in the
mile run, has done the distance in prac-
tice in 5:1l, and is confidently expected
by his club mates to land the race.
There are other contending elements
in the long distance event, however.
Brown, of Punahou, who won the dual
meet mile, is said to be several sec
onds behind another runner of the
Punahou Athletic Club. Mayhall of the
Y, NJ. c. A. is also regarded as being
dangerous If he starts, and if he runs
UP to his old country form will about
win. Then the Artillery have a man
who can step better than five minutes
II necessary. Taken altogether, the
mile run promises to be one of the best
contested races on the card.
There will probably be another big
athletic meeting in the fall at the close
of the baseball season, held under the
auspices of the Mckinley Memorial COM
mittee. At this meeting, at which all
the local athletic clubs will be repre-
scented, the Hawaiian championships
for the year will be decided, and valua-
BE individual prizes offered.
The Merchants Association held a
meeting yesterday afternoon, at
o'clock in the Stock Exchange cham
Der and endorsed the resolution of the
Chamber OF Commerce regarding the
fire claims, and gave authority to j. G..
