Politics are beginning to liven UP
again. Tonight caucuses Of delegates
will be held in several precincts. The
fourth precinct of the Fourth District
will meet at Republican headquarters.
| Informal meetings of other delegations
have already been held. No slate has
been yet fixed.
Henry Davis announced himself yes
terday as a candidate for auditor. c..
NJ. White and Harry Murray both made
public announcements of their candi-
dacy for auditor and clerk respectively.
For the clerkship. Vida claims to have
| nearly a majority of the delegates
pledged.
e. C. Peters is the latest possibility
for the district attorneyship. 1t is
reported that if Atkinson refuses the
| nomination it will be rendered to the
present deputy attorney general.
The second precinct of the Fourth
| will instruct its delegation tomorrow
evening. A meeting for that purpose
will be held in a tent at the Makiki
grounds.

Fourth District Committee. They are

BEES STING
MULE TO DEATH

Bees, enraged at having their honey
taken away from them, severely stung
two horses and killed a mule recently
at Pearl City.
A team of horses belonging to Nc
Candless, with a mule and cart belong
ing to e. C. Smith Of Pearl City were,
| a few days since, employed in carting
comb from an apiary on the Pearl City
the mule that his assistance in the
| matter was an understandable intrusion
and the mule, following out the trsdi-
tons of His race, got stubborn and re-
fused to bulge from the spot although
/ he vigorously objected to the attack by
Switches and tail switching with vicious
tanning of his ears.
Meantime the driver of the horses
was laughing at the antics of the mule
until warned of the close proximity
of the Fees by the plunging of the
horses. He hastily whipped up and
succeeding in getting free with com
paratively few stings but the mule re-
manned obdurate to Establishments ana
reyilings alike while the bees con-
centrated their efforts upon his obstf-
nate carcass.
The head of the unfortunate animal
was surrounded by a cloud of the in
sects and their angry buzzing was dis
tinctly audible at the very safe dis
lance of two hundred yards to which
the onlookers retreated. Still further
retirement was found prudent and the
ultimate return some hours later found
the mule dead.
The bees had apparently centered
their attack upon the mules eyes
around which their stingers were rayed
like the fuzz on a prickly pear. Accord
ing to popular belief, many hundred
bees had sacrificed themselves by i'm
planting their venomed stings in the
mule, but they We're amply revenged
and died with the satisfaction that the
enemy was annihilated.

TALLEST OF SKySCRAPERS.
New Bank to Be rs Stories and Highest In
the World.

New York (SpeciaD .-Workmen are
now busy upon the foundations of what
is to be the talest office building, from
basement to roof in the world.
From basement to roof the building
viii be 337 feet high, which means about
327 feet from the street level to the
roof. This excels even the Park Row
building, which is now the tallest Office
structure in the world, for, while the
towers of the latter rise 382 feet above
ground, the roof itself is only 300 feet
The proposed structure is being erect
ed for the National Bank of North
America. and is to be known as the Wall
Exchange Building. 1t will be rs sto-
res high, the lower 10 of granite, those
above of brick and terra-cotta.
Charles w. Morse is the real leader of
the enterprise. Several months ago Mr.
Morse and his associates got control of
the bank, which then had capital of
100000, absorbed and merged it into
the Bank of the State of New York,
which had a capital of 81, ,zoo,o 900, and
moved the enlarged bank to the home
of the latter concern at the northwest
corner Of William street and Exchange
Place.
That corner plot, containing only
5000 square feet, has since been sold for

ton which purchased the plot adjoining

Waiting Impaticntiy for the Signal to LET
Them Know That All Was Resdy-.The Line

San Francisco, Cal. (SpeciaD.-San
Francisco and Honolulu are now con-
nected by cable. The first words
passed under the ocean a few moments
after IL o'clock. The wire worked per-
fectly.
The Silvertown, just before splicing
the ends, some thirty miles off shore
from Honolulu, telegraphed both ways
for the land stations to wait until II 10
o'clock, San Francisco time, before
trying the cable. That time was de-
sired to insure the perfect hardening

the Joint should be lowered overheard

water.
Operators sat anxiously and eagerly
about the instruments in King street.

ON Market street, in San Francisco,
waiting for the time lime limit TO ex-
pire.
Just after II O'Clock a signal went
from this end to Honolulu. The first
response from Honolulu came into
San Francisco at exactly II.o3 o'clock.
1t was S.4I in Honolulu, the time diff
ference being two hours twenty-five
minutes and few seconds.
The FIRST message received was from
Goveror Dole to President Roosevelt.
1t was merely a formal greeting and
congratulation from the people OF Ha-
waii to the people OF the United States,
from one chief executive to the other.
The message was transmitted at the
Market street Office to a wire leading
directly to the Executive Mansion at
Washington. and its receipt was i'm
mediately acknowledged
Alter the first message came a sec
ond message from Honolulu. i was
greeting from the people OF Hawaii
to Clarence H. Mackay, president OF
the Gable Company. congratulating
him on the completion of the cable
and expressing sorrow that John W.
Mackay had not survived to see the
instantaneous bond between the islands
and the American Continent. This
message was signed by Henry E Coo
per. Secretary OF the Territory OF Ha-
waii.
The paper ribbon containing the rec
ord OF the first experimental work be-
tween San Francisco and Honolulu
was cut into little sections OF a few
phrases each and divided among the
score OF spectators who were assem-
bled about the instruments when San

each other under the Pacific ocean.
