SHOT IN DARK
MISSED LESLIE

A battered leaden bullet is carried in.
the pocket of Lieut.. Sam Leslie's uni
form coat, as a gruesome memento OF
an attempt on his life. There is little.
doubt that some one tried to assassin
ate him for the bullet was fired through
the window Of the bedroom in his house
on Houghtailing Lane, Kalihi, and but
for the fact that Leslie slept in another
room, he might easily have been killed
At 4 a. m. yesterday Leslie heard the
discharge of firearm. but thought it
was Chinaman shooting at rice birds,
although he heard a Gathering in an
adjoining room. Smelling powder
smoke Leslie arose and investigated
and found that bullet had been fired
through the wire screen across the
window, and had gone through the
head board of the bed in which he
commonly slept. close to where his
head usually rested on the pillow. The
bullet had then penetrated the parti-
tion and fallen to the floor.
The person firing the shot evidently
stood on the lanai in front of the win
dow. for the curtains behind the screen
were singed.

Jewett and the police department are

The insulted sign was being painted
on fence on the mauka side of King

line Don't be a Pelican" illustrated
with picture of that maligned bird.
After nightfall the Goth came along
with pot Of green paint and in un-
couth lettering added some letters, the.
sign reading this morning:

The addition was hastily Inscribed
and the green paint stopped on in such
fashion as to run streaklily all over the
vacant spaces. 1t will cost consider
able time, trouble and paint to replace
the sign in it's original condition of ad-
visory remarks.
The High Sheriff was appealed to and
seemed to be as roth as the painter

to trace the offender, not such diff

ed notice because of his ability as q
debater and speaker which, in his case
was associated with executive force
In 1871 he largely contributed to the
) success of Newto Booth, who de
Heated and succeeded Henry H. Haigh
as Governor of California, and, two
years afterwards, he participated in a
revolt against certain Republican ele-
lments that resulted in the election of
an independent legislature. Judge Es-
tee as a representative of San Fran
cisco, became the Speaker of the AS
sembly, where he achieved a high repu-

and close application to details.
CHOICE FOR THE SENATE.
In 1887 he was the choice in the Re-
publican legislative caucus at Sacra-
mento for the Senate of the United
States, but the Democratic candidate
was successful. He took leading part
in the Constitutional Convention in
California in 1878, and was the author
of several important parts of the Con-
stitution, then framed and adopted the
next year. He served as a freeholder in
the preparation of a new charter for
San Francisco in 1880. Twice he was
the Republican candidate for Governor
of California, and was defeated at the
polls by narrow majorities. He barely
missed two appointments to the Cabinet
at Washington, and rarely was there
vacancy in any important Federal
position when, in connection with it,
his name was not prominently men,
toned. 1t was, howevef, noted on the
Pacific Coast. especially among those
who knew him best, that, while his
capacity to fill any Office to which he
might be appointed was unquestionable,
IL success depended upon his personal
efforts on his own behalf, failure was
inevitable. He was uncompromising in
his adherence to principle, frank and
even blunt in his opposition to what
he conceived to be wrong, fully per-
suaded that, in the United States, the
office should seek the man and that no
man should run after an Office, and, for
these various reasons, while he became
a political factor Of far more than Or
dinary consequence, he was inexpert
in what are termed practical politics."

THE LATE FEDERAL JUDGE-MORRIS
M. ESTEE.-BY HENRY {. HIGHTON

California. Judge Estee, Henry f.
Highton and the octogenarian and
eminent lawyer, John T. Doyle, were
appointed a committee to prepare a
memorial to Congress against the meas
ure, and each Of those gentlemen draft
ed memorial, which expressed his own
views. There were some Emergencies
between the three papers, and at Judge
Estee's suggestion, Mr.. Highton became
a committee of one to mould them into
consecutiveness and harmony. The
work was done and the bill was de-
feated-one Of the unfrequent instances
of failure by Mr.. Huntington in the
legislative department of his work
A NATIONAL HONOR.
In 1888 Judge Estee was accorded the
distinguished honor of presiding over
the National Republican Convention,
and the skill, courtesy, rapidity and
precision, with which he performed the
duties of that trying position, attracted
the admiration of the country. AS a
presiding officer over any body, state,
municipal, political, or fraternal, he has
been rarely, If ever, excelled by any of
his contemporaries. Always unpre-
tentious, never dogmatic, homely and
lucid in his language, free from temper
or partisan intensity, and yet firm in
his opinions, when they were once
formed, and strong in their expression,
and also possessed of a pungent humor
that in no way weakened his argu-
ments, as speaker and a debater, he
was invariably interesting and attrac-
tive, and dangerous antagonist to the
opposite side of any question. His dis

places in the State Of California, is
firmly impressed upon political his

Judge Estee was also Mason and an
Odd Fellow of high distinction, and had
filled many of the most important Of
fees in each order. The services of
this morning, like the court proceedings
of yesterday. will attest the esteem in
which his name is held, not only in
fraternities, but in the profession to
which he was so long attached and in

Judge Estee filled the measure of a |

just and incorruptible judge. He has |
