MADE FUN OF NOAR
PRACTICAL JOKE THAT NEARLY
WENT TOO FAR.
Hoax Played On Local Politician Who
Made Big Contracts For the Coming
Commission.

A practical joke has been perpetrated
upon Isaac Noar, the real estate agent,
mat in the opinion of many prominent
business men has been carried too far.
Mr.. Noar was formerly of New York
where he dallied with matters political
and, on coming to Hawaii kept up his
liking for national and local affairs.
Some time ago he drew up petition
which was signed by many citizens
asking for the Senatorial commission
to come to Hawaii. This was drawn
up by Judge Humphreys, it is said, in
the latter's best style, and sent on to
Senator Mitchell, who replied person
ally to Mr.. Noar.
In the last mail a typewriter letter
on the paper of the Palace Hotel, TAX
ing up two pages and purporting to
bear the signature of the. secretary OF
the committee, was received by Mr.,
Noar. A special delivery stamp was
upon and the matter inside was urgent
in request.
In it Mr. Noar was asked to, in his
capacity of chairman of the Citizens
committee" to meet the commission
at the wharf with suitable convey
ances, as they were all strangers. He
was asked to obtain ten suites of
rooms at a prominent hotel, preferably
at the beach, for the members of the
committee which included several
ladies'. a hall was also to be secured
and no expense was to be considered
funds being ample. Mr.. Noar was tc
be reimbursed. The letter had many
ear-marks of legitimacy, although the
signature was ilegible and might have
been Jones, Brown or Robinson. as fan
as general appearance went.
After showing the letter TO one Ol
two in conjunction with the persona
letter from Senator Mitchell with 6
genuine signature. Mr.. Noar went tC
Mr.. Peacock who drove him to the Mo,
ana Hotel where arrangements were
made for the rooms required. Manager
Allen smelt a rat, however, and die
not become over-elated at the prospect
Mr.. Noar was then closeted with Sena,
tor Burton for a long time yesterday
morning in an unsuccessful endeaVO
| to get him to change his hotel. Judgt
| Estee's court room was secured, Gov
ernor Dole interviewed in the mOrnin,

| Noar who is Jealous party worker
went to no little trouble in the matte
before some kindly intentional peopl

! 1t is generally felt to have been il
bad taste to have associated the com
ing of the committee with a practica
| joke, as being a matter of too seriou
interest to Hawaii to be tri1ed with
| and the selection of a man Of MI
Noar's age also not thought in the bes
of form. 1t is understood that quiet in
| vestigation among local real estate of
fees might show traces of the perpe

TOOK NO CHANCES
CAPTAIN OF JOHN G. NORTH
STUNNED PUNALUU.
First Sailed in, Then Sailed Out, Then
He Sailed Back and Then He Sailed
Away.

According to the reports brought
from Punaluu by Captain w. Thomp-
son of the steamer Niihau, the Ameri-
can schooner John G. North was fitting
in and out of that harbor, this week as
her captain was afraid to risk his YES
sci inside of what island captains seem
to consider a dangerous place.
The North arrived at Punaluu the
morning of August 10, 25 days from
Port Gamble She had 250, 900 feet of
lumber. Captain Erickson did not drop
anchor but he took a survey of the
place, felt the brisk northeast trade
that swept around the south curve
of the shore and fairly sucked his
boat inshore, and then immedi-
ately put about and sailed out of
the harbor. He did not seem to like the
prospects. for he stood about 10 miles
off shore.
On Wednesday morning, the North
was put into the harbor once again but
Captain Erickson again did not fancy
the prospects. and without a very
long investigation again put to sea.
Yesterday the schooner was still IL
miles off shore. Evidently Captain
Erickson did not like the looks of the
place for he seemed to be determined
to wait until there was no chance of
his boat getting into trouble.
The experience of the schooner Metha
Nelson which has taken 16 DAYS in
which to discharge a cargo that would
have been gotten out in considerable
less time under reasonably favorable
conditions, can be taken as an indica-
ton of what the masters of vessels GO
ing to Punaluu have to consider. The
North will probably stand off until the
weather conditions improved, There
was a nasty chOppy sea running at the
time the North tried to enter.

IN DOMESTIC DIFFICULTY.

Annoy Manuwai "a native woman.
and f. Remillard. were before Judge
Wilcox this mUrning TO answer to the
charge of adultery. Milo. the husband
of the woman, swore to the complaint.
1t is claimed that the woman has not
been as constant to her husband as she
should be- and that she was, in fact,
caught in rather a compromising sit
uation with Remilard. The latter was
given a severe trOuncing as the result
of the discovery. Judge Wilcox con-
tinued their cases until next Tuesday,
as both pleaded not guilty today.

authorized the Star to state
that Senator John M. Thurston
had undergone a slight surgical
operation and would be con-
fined for several days. DR.. Gal
braith further stated that SEN
ator Thurston would be in good
condition again on next We'd
nesday. This information post
pones the meeting which was to
take place tomorrow night. The
Young Mems Republican Club
will select another date as there
is a strong desire to hear Sena-
tor Thurston. The ex-senator
is an eloquent and powerful
orator and is much sought after
by managers of political cam
paigns on the mainland. His
address will open the campaign
of the Republicans in the Ter
ritory. The meeting is expect
ed to draw a very large crowd.

METHA NELSON TO SAIL.

The schooner Metha Nelson was to
have sailed from Punaluu yesterday
for Port Townsend in ballast. The
schooner had to remain for l6 days in
the harbor discharging her cargo. She
had 1876, 900 feet of lumber, 1l2 tons of
freight and 600 bundles of shingles. The
weather was such at Punaluu however
that the work could not be done any
faster although the captain worked
day and night.

TOOK CANNED PINE APPLES.

The baTkentine Coronado sailed this
afternoon for San Francisco. She had
500 tons of sugar, 1000 cases of canned
pine apples and considerable general
freight. Tbs is the biggest shipment
of canned pine apples ever made from
Honolulu, and it is hoped that the pres
ent shipment will be the forerunner OF
an extensive market for the Hawaiian
fruit

CORONADO VS.. ANDREW WEIGH

There is likely to be a brush be-
tween the bark Andrew Welch and the
barkentine Coronado on the way to
San Francisco. Both vessels left with
in few hours of each other today.
The Coronado is much lighter than the
other vessel as the Welch has a full
load, so it is thought the barkentine
will be the first to touch San Francis
co with the winds that are now pre-
Vailing.

I'LL GRADES OF
SOFT {UGARS
IRE ADVANCED

NEW YORK, August 11-Tak-
ing advantage of the active de-
mand which has sprung up for
refined sugar, the big and little
trusts-namely the American
Sugar Refining Company and
the National Sugar Refining
Company, which are popularity
regarded as closely allied-today
advanced prices s cents per hun
dred pounds. All grades Of soft
sugars also were advanced, but
in this case the rise was 10
points The ArbuCkles did not
follow suit, but are expected to
do so forthwith, for there is no
actual rivalry any longer. The
time was considered ripe for an
advance because sugar prices
really have been very low and
because the fruit canning season
needs evidently will eventually
be very large.
