.RAN TAYLOR
IN. NEW YORK
HE is SEEN BY BISHOP RESTARICK AND TELLS AN EX-
TRAORDINARY STORY OF MENTAL NBERRATION-
DOES NOT KNOW WHAT HE DID, BUT WOKE TO FIND
HIMSELF IN ENGLAND

Taylor was agricultural commissioner
of Hawaii for many years, also or
ganist for the Anglican cathedral here
and a well known citizen. He left on
January last to go to San Francisco
on business connected with his depart
ment, securing a leave of absence from
Governor Dole in the regular way. Az
ter arriving at San Francisco he was
heard from several times, and sent
some seeds back here. He called up
on State Commissioner Craw of Cali
fOrnia, also upon Professor Koebele,
who was in Alameda. The LATTER af-
forwards remarked that Taylor appear
ed TO act strangely
Taylor suddenly dropped out of sight.
On Investigation here it was discovered
that he had drawn n check for $500,
from the Chinese fund, just before
leaving He was indicted by the Grand
jury aud A. Lindsay, now district ira
gistrate was sent after him. Circulars
containing his picture were distributed
among police all over the country, but
no trace of him was found with the
exception of reports that he had been
seen in Boston and New York.
The information of his reappearance
came in a letter from the bishop to
Mrs. Restarick. AS the Territory has
a reward of $500 out for him, 1t Is
thought that he will be arrested il he
shows himself.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1903-12-14

Wray Taylor has been heard from
and with most remarkable story.
Extraordinary as is his explanation ac-
counting for his innocence, there will
be many in Hawaii to believe it, for
most of those who knew the former
agricultural commissioner have stead
lily refused to accept the theory that
he embezzled eight hundred edollars of
public money. According to Taylors
story he has no recollection of his do
ings from the time he was in San
Francisco until he suddenly found
himself in England.
Taylor was seen in New York. by
Bishop Restarick of the Anglican Epis-
copal church of Hawaii The bishop
has been travelling in numerous East
ern cities, and was surprised while in
New York to receive a call from Tay-
lor. Taylor haC returned. fEom Eng
land. He told the bishop that he. did
not know how he had got to- England,
having no recollection of making the
trip. His mind was a blank from a
time when he remembered being in
San Francisco. Taylor said that he
had been a victim of one of the eX-
traordinary mental lapses which have
been well atteSted in some cases. 1t
Is said that his father and one of his
brothers suffered a similar experience
and died shortly afterwards.

WHAT IS A COUGH2

A spasdomic effort to expel the mu-
Gus from the bronchial tubes. A cold
causes a more abundant secretion of
mucus, and when the lungs and bron-
chial tubes are inflamed, they are eG-
tremely sensitive to the irritation. I'M
less care is taken, the cold may result
in pneumonia, which is swift and dead
ly. If the cold is a lingering one, the
more leisurely but equally fatal con-
may set in. Do not neglect
a cold or cough. Take Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. 1t always cures and
cures quickly. Sold by all dealers.

1t is evident that the officers figure
on the Panama troubles being of con-
siderable duration. The fact that the
families of the officers are coming to
Honolulu for the visit of the Ieet in
this port, shows that the belief of the
men of the fleet is that they have been
ordered to Honolulu in connection with
the Panama troubles. 1t is not likely
that the families would take the trou-
BILE or go to the expense of coming to
Honolulu If the fleet were to return
soon to the -Asiatic station. 1t is not un-
likely that the fleet will remain in port
at least a month.

FLEET MAY Be HERE A MONTH.

Evidently the officers of the Aneri-
can Asiatic fleet expect to remain sn-ne
time in Honolulu. Mail advices by the
S. S. Nippon Maru today announce tina:
there will be an exodus of officers
wives and families from Yokohama to
Honolulu. The families of the officers
of the fleet are coming to Honolulu by
the S. S. Siberia which is due here De-
cember 21. From the statements of the
letter, the indications are that there
will be an unusually large number of
arrivals for Honolulu. The presence OF
the officers families will add to the sue
cess of the stay of the fleet in port.

The meteorological summary for the
month of November is out, with a re-
view of the volcanic and seismic dis
turbances of the month, as follows
The month closed with continued vol
canic activity, that oil Mauna Loa's
summit cI;,~ar Mokuaweoweo, was re-
ported at the end of the month as be-
ing about the same as when first visit
ed in October. The crater of Hale
maumau in Kilauea, was discovered in
eruption at 2:30 a. m. of the 25th, and
akjtiVity has since continued. The
lava lake at the end of the month was
reported as being 300 by 125 feet in size
and not more than $50 feet from the
crater's summit This crater lis 1.95
miles wide and 2.93 miles long, con-
tanning an area of Ala square miles or
1850 acres. Mokuaweoweos dimentlons
were given in the October summary.
There have been no earthquakes re-
ported to this office, but a newspaper
report gives one in the Kona and Kau
districts on the 18th, followed by in
creased activity of Mokuaweowea, and
the steamer Mauna Loa reports dis
turbance of the sea while the vessel
was at anchor off Punualuu, Hawaii on
the nth The sea suddenly became
churned up and disturbed to such an
extent as to capsize one of the ships
boats lying along side, throwing its
occupants into the water where,
though they were natives, they main
tained themselves with difficulty and
the ship itself was swung around from
its former position. This disturbance
is reported as last ten minutes. Later
in the day a huge black cloud was seen
to belch from the summit crater. fol-
lowed bv the usual column of white
smoke and steam. High seas in the
channels and heavy surf a-ong the wind
ward coasts have been the rule. Tidal
waves were reported from Pelekuna
Molokai; Kahului and Honokohau,
Maui on the 29th. At the latter place
one wave rose to a height of 30 feet
as measured by the mark left by the
sea on the pail, doing considerable
damage. From Kohalalele, Hawaii
comes a report of heavy seas lasting
some hours which swept clean over the
