vass of the city made by the sub-com-
mittee of the executive committee for
suitable property and stated that the
work would be resumed tomorrow.
The property of Claus Spreckels on
the corner of Punahou and wilder

letter has been sent to Mr.. Spreckels
asking for a price. which il is hOppd will
be lessened by concessions College

at the end Of King street were visited.
| The latter site was abandoned owing to
| the cost Of improvements Kalihi. and
Nuuanu valley will be visited tomorrow
and the committee is anxious TO secure
| suggestions for possible Sites
Committees were formed to commence
to raise the fund by calling on the mer-
chants of the city and a discussion,
which was left unfinished, was brought
up on the desirability of a large certt-
hcate being designed with space for the
names of members of schools or secret
orders to group their names around one
amount.
Committees were formed who will
canvas the schools and me foreign
speaking portion of the community. The
athletic clubs are expected to contribute
with benefits some of which are already
promised and a considerable amount is
anticipated from various secret socie-
ties, the late president having been a
member of many such organizations.

VAUDEVILLE.


The house was practically sold out at
the Orpheum last evening for the Sec
Ond performance of the Worlds Enter
tainers and it was noticeable that many
of the audience occupied the same
seats that they did the night before 1t
is evident that Honolulu. thoroughly
realizes a first class performance when
it sees one and is equally ready to res
pond i'm fashion that should prove en-
couraging TO promoters of good attraC-
tons and serve also as warning sign
boards to those who dream of unloading
poor ones upon the market.
SalernO deServedly has taken the town
by the cOnsumate ease and mastery
with which he accOmplishes his feats
the last one of which is a veritable
MIRACLE of balancing.
On an inverted cue are balanced three
billiard balls, fun size, ivory, perfectly
round, they are handed out for inspec-
ton. cube of chalk forms a link in
this pile, upon the balls rests still an
other cue with at the apex a small plat
form on which are arranged a set Of
billiard 6kittles If the reader will
amuse himself for several hours I'm the
vain endeavOr to balance one billiard
ball on top of another he will get some
idea of the really marvellous nature of
SalernO's feats. But they are all good
in this company and comparison is invi-
dious. The program is excellent, as
everyone in town knows by repute or
experience by now. Tomorrow night
there Will be radical changes i'm the bill
and matinee is announced for Satur-
day. 1t will be a bargain matinee at
popular prices.

OHIOANs WANT MONUMENT.

The bi-monthly meeting of the Buck
eye club of local OhiOans was held yes
terday evening at the residence of Mr..
and Mrs. w. A. Bowen when, after
musical program contributed to by To-
cal amateurs, followed by dainty re-
freshments the good folk from McKin-
leys state dispersed until the next
meeting which will be held at the resi-
dence of Mr.. and Mrs. G. H. Atherton.
A paper on Ohio's importance as an
educational center was contributed by
the Rev. w. ID. Westervelt and a dis
cussiOn on the Mckinley memorial re-
suited in the sense of the meeting be-
ing expressed in favor of monument
rather than a memorial park The So
ciety pledges itself to raise $500 on that
understanding. The question of the
choice of memorial will finally be put
to vote, every fifty cent contribution
counting as one ballot so that the
Ohioans have a solid vote of 1000 in
favor of their wish if the Memorial
Executive Committee will allow them
to cast provisional ballots.

WIFI HAVE 10 WORK,

BY the time that Manuel Sava and
Joe Castro, Porto Ricans, come out of
Oahu prison, they will probably not
have any more desire to play" with
hacks. Castro received a sentence of
six months and Sava, three months at
the hands of Judge Wilcox yesterday
afternoon for violating section $50
The pair are the individuals who tried
to hold up a hack in which was
Mounted Officer DevauChelle. The POr-
to Ricans explained that they had not
intended any wrong but We're simply
foOling. Their stories of good nature
did not carry weight with either the
court or Deputy High Sheriff Chilling
worth and both the defendants were
given heavy sentences for unlawfuIy
dangerous weapons.

ANOTHER DEAL,

NEW YORK, January 1S-The Sun
says: For the past several months
stories have been current in New York
and London that merger If some Of
the great British steamship lines with
the American line would be effected
soon by j. Pierpont Morgan. It may be
now stated positively that within a
short time an announcement VIII be
made of the most important union Of
oceanic steamship lines ever before at
tempted and completed For the past
few months Morgan has been at work
on the matter, and within the past few
days details of the merger have been
practically completed i'm his New York
office.
The scheme involves a union Of the
American and Leyland lines with the
freight lines of the Cunard and White
Star lines the united lines to be under
the management of the present man
ayers Of the American line Such a
union would clear the way for the trans
portation of the European freight of the
Pennsylvania, New York Central Bal
timOre and Ohio and other railroads in
whose direction Morgan cuts a large
figure by a line of steamers practically
owned by the owners Of the railroads.
1t also means that the products of the
United States Steel Corporation will
have clear advantage in freight rates
over the products of all competing COM
panies in the world.

A FAKE FIGHT.

PHILADELPHIA, January 17.-Some
1000 gentle Quakers and two or three
hundred mild-eyed New Workers. were
tonight subjected to a most fragrant
swindle in the twenty-four-foot ring,
Offering announcements to the effect
that Thomas Sharkey and Peter Maher
would contest for the Irish champions
ship completely filled Industrial Hall
Sweltering thrOngs sat i'm the smoke
shrouded han through four preliminary
contests and waited until nearly mid
night for the appearance of the gallant
sailor and the bold Irishman.
The people who paid their mony eX-
pected six rounds at least of interesting
boxing between these two heavy weights
But to the rage and establishment Of the
spectators, Maher and Sharkey got into
the ring and boxed two and a half
rounds Of as palpable taking as ever
was seen within ropes. 1t was not a
good exhibition even, il was so tame
and so evidently prearranged that the
crowd hOoted from the time the first
weak blow was struck until the indig-
nant referee finally ordered the pre-
tenders out of the ring I'm the middle
of the third round Not a blow was
struck that would feaZe a feather
weight and the spaTing was so crude
as to cause amusement
The men had been arrested early I'm
the evening and bound over i'm $1,000
bail TO keep the peace. But this was
not the only thing that prevented the
bout, II was admitted by the manager
of the Industrial Athletic club while in
court that the contestants had pre-
arranged agreement that neither was TO
be knocked out nor in any way injured.
The fighters even got their money be-
fore entering the ring.

ately to the scene Of the suicide
Chillingworth later directed his clerk
Harry MOssman TO impanel a coroner's
jury and send theW to Waikiki and an
inquest is probably being held this
afternoon, although it may be decided
to have the inquest tonight
So far as can be learned this after
noon, the Japanese took his own life.
Nothing reported from the affair so
far tends To indicate that he was the
victim of foul plav But not until the
Deputy High Sheriff win have return
ed from the scene of the affair can
this point be definitely settled how
ever.
What caused the young man to be
come Respondent is not known. His

THE DUTCH IN HOOK.
One of Our Late Visitors Goes To
Jail

SAN FRANCISCO, January ELK
Lieutenant l.. A. Van der Nelde of the
Dutch navy was Yesterday sentenced by
Judge Cabaniss to five days imprisOn-
ment on the charge of petty larceny, 10
which he had pleaded guilty nearly two
weeks ago. After resigning from the
navy the defendant had gone to Homo
lulu, where he secured a position as
surveyor for one of the large sugar
plantations but his health failing he
came to this city, arriving with about
5000. This money he expended on his
health and looking for work and when
he took a bicycle from i'm front of the
Public Library he had eaten nothing
FOR two days He has wealthy relatives
and friends in Holland, but preferred 70
suffer in silence rather than that they
should know his condition.
In the islands he met another HOl-
lander of good family, William George
de Boer and together they came to this
city. De Boer has money i'm his own
right i'm Holland, but is a good liver
and his last remittance of 25O0 marks
did not cover the period until the next
is due, so he was unable to aid his
friend. He was arrested at the same
time with Van der Waldo, but beyond
the fact that he knew his friend was
desperate and intended to do something
he was not a party to the offense and
was released.
But he has stayed by his friend during
| his trouble and has daily called at the
City Prison and visited with him dur
ing the time allotted. In addition to this
he has cabled twice, through the Outer
Consul, Wilfred y. Chapman, for funds
| with which to pay any possible fine thai
may be inflicted, but no answer has
/ been received. The case has twice beer

! fixed for sentence the Court had no op.

/ was called the eX-naval officer stood a

These effects We're a piuful lot. Rub

speaking candidly though not when

marked the CObblers place of labor

a top boot i'm black paint on a white
ground, weather beaten and old; a box
full of lasts most of them old and
broken; lapstOnes and avis; thread and
shoemakers wax, and the odds and
ends that collect through years of cob
bling
In the lie of things were a few that
evidently were treasured for some as
ISOLATION. There was a stein i'm gray
Bavarian pottery with a medallion Of
Ludwig surrounded by the Bavarian
arms. There were some portraits in
crayon, mostly of boys and girls, chill
dren perhaps, or brothers and sisters of
the deceased These We're all heavily
framed and as the auctioueer put them
up for sale it seemed like a parody or
hurlesque on the scene from THE
School for Scandal" where Charles
Surface auctions off the portraits of his
ancestors.
The whole accumulation of eff
fects was a pitiful reminder of the mar
row and pitiful life their owner led.
Truschler who had long been regarded
as peculiar and as unwholesome in
his relations with women committed
suicide because he had been deserted
by a japanese woman with whom he
had lived and she had refused to pay
him $50 he claimed she owed him.
