WHALEN WILL NOT

WHALEN WILL NOT SAIL TODAY.
The schooner Julia E. Whalen Will
not sail for Midway island today. She
was to have gotten out this afternoon
but it has been found necessary to get
some sails and otherwise rig her up.
The vessel is not in the best condition
as regards the condition of her stays,
so it is proposed to fix them up before
she starts for the cable station. The
vessel will probably sail on Monday.

DICK
TURPIN At WORK
STOPPED AT KAPUKA.
III HILL YESTERDAY AND
WOUNDED AND ROBBED.

\ new STYLE Dick Turpin is at york
on the highway. He is a stand and
deliver" hghwayman bu. beyond this
particular feature of his work being
similar to that of the old knights of the
road. there is no further resemblance
to the old patrons of she art. The
Highwayman is a Chinese who rides
on a bicycle upon his victims and
forces them to surrender their. money.
When they do not surrender, he shoots
them down and then robs them at
leisure On Thursday Fujikawa a
Japanese was shot down by the UNI
known Chinese highwayman and yes
terday another outrage was perpetrat-
ed on japanese named Oda. The
victim of yesterdays robbery was Sc
riously wounded in the conflict with
the highwaymen, and is not expected
to survive the wounds. operations of
the Chinese highwayman are conducted
with such a disregard of apprehension,
that the police are inclined to the
theory that they were pepetrated by
an insane Chinese. Certainly both af-
/ fairs appear to have been the work Of
the same criminal.
/ The latest victim of the robbery was
! a Japanese who had completed work
| ing on the Honolulu Plantation yes
! terday and closed his accounts with
| Manager Low. The japanese went to
Honolulu and in the afternoon walked
toward the plantation. At Kapukaki
Hill, in practically the same spot where
the other Jap had been Shot and rob-
bed the day previous, Oda was attack
ed by the highwayman. The Chinese
rode on a bicycle from behind and
pointing a revolver ordered Oda to
give him a dollar. Oda instinctively
grasped the revolver. A struggle en-
sued which ended by the pistol being
forced down until it pointed at Oda's
abdomen when the Chinese fired, the
bullet entering the abdomen of the
japanese. The latter fell and was
shot asecond time in the stomach. The
highwayman then rifed the pockets
of the Japanese, taking $3.50
The police were notified of the af-
fair and Deputy High Sheriff Chilling
worth and Detective McDuffie and Re-
near started for the scene of the out
rage.
From the statement of some linemen
who had been working on the road, the
Chinese must have mounted his bicycle
Immediately after the outrage and
hurried back to Honolulu. Several
people saw him and the following des-
cription was taken of the man: Tall
Chinaman, about feet 8 inches tall;
face splotched with white marks from
a skin disease: wore a dark coat, light
trousers, canvas shoes with rubber
soles rode a low-frame bicycle with
brown rims and open-out handle bars.
Tracks of a bicycle in the vicinity of
the robbery were found by the police.
The detectives are at work searching
about Chinatown for the highway man.
1t is said that the japanese on Homo
lulu Plantation claim that the Chinese
highwayman has been employed by
other Chinese who took their places af-
ter the strike, to frighten the Japs
away. The police think that the out
RACES We're committed by a Chinese
from Honolulu.
The wounded Japanese was removed
to Honolulu yesterday afternoon. He
was sent to the Japanese hospital. 1t
is not thought that he can recover from
his wounds.

DECISION IN TAYLOR
CASE EXPECTED TODAY
Accused Woman Makes Unpleasant I'm
preston on Witness Stand.

MONTICELLO. y. Y, Nay 29.-The de-
cision in the Taylor murder case viii
probably be reached today. The evidence
closed this morning. and Judge Howard
limited the attorneys on each side to two
hours for summing up. Before o'clock
the case will be given TO the jury.
Mrs Taylor was in the witness box
over four hours yesterday, and made
damaging statements which undoubtedly
Influenced the jury against her. The
thread OF her story of the killing OF
Lafe Taylor. her husband, agreed l.
many respects with the statements OF
her daughter, Ida May Dekay, except
that Mrs. Taylor claimed the shooting
was accidental, and while Taylor was
trying to take the revolver from her.
She admitted the shooting. but would
not say how she disposed of the body.
Her testimony was, il part. that Lafe
came home intoxicated and abused her,
as he always aid when under the in
fluence of liquor. He found the revolver
and attempted to shoot her. After he
had fired one shot she took the weapon
from him. He attempted to get it again,
and it was discharged in the struggle,
the bali striking him in the head, and
killing him. The revolver was purchas-
ed by her, she said. TO protect her from
tramps, and a bear that had been seen
near her home

THE Country Cousins" in which ap-
peared. Pauline Holer. Mrs. L. NJ. zim-
norman. Mrs. A. L. Jarrel, Mrs. Charles

ciety of the home, and the Hon. Simon
Wolf, president of the home, and the
Rev Paul a. Mcneil closed the exer-
cises with prayer.
Mr.. Wolf said in part:
THE rearing OF orphan children to
become good citizens is an important act
of modern civilization and one that can
not be too highly commended But in
your noble effort to evidence your good
Will toward that Institution do not, i beg
Of you, ignore your duty to this. for,

WU'S APPOINTMENT
etsf
A NOTABLE TRIBUTE
Position Was Made for Him to Employ
His Talents.

News of the appointment of WI Ting
fang, formerly Chinese minister to the
United States, to be a member of the
Chinese foreign office, is regarded in Of
fetal circles here as a special compli-
rnent to that diplomatist's long and sue
cessful career in his country's foreign
service Only those persons having a
clear idea of the scope of world poll
tics are selected for membership In this
branch of the imperia< service. The
creation OF sixth place in the board
IN order to secure Mr.. Wu's services. is
taken as a clear Indication of the value
placed upon his ability by those close
to the powers that be in China.
II is believed that on account OF Mr..
Wu's thorough acquaintance with West
ern customs and civilization, his new
duties may have especial reference to
the negotiations of China with the great
world powers and the maintenance of
the open door in the Celestial empire.
In such a position he would come into
direct contact. automatically, with
Count Cassini. the Russian ambassador
here, and several others OF his former
colleagues in Washington.
1t IS taken for granted that his per-
sonal acquaintance with the great dip
lomatists of other countries will give
him much advantage in conducting such
negotiations in behalf OF China to a
successful termination.

CONCERN HAS NO RIGHT
To SCALE POLICIES
License to Be Refused to Reserve Life
Insurance Company.

Arthur H. O'Connor. Assistant Corpor-
alton Counsel. has submitted TO the Dis
trict Commissioners q legal opinion
upon the right of an oldline legal re-
serve insurance company to scale its
policy claims. Incidentally with this
opinion another is submitted to the ef-
feet that the application of the Mutual
Reserve Life Insurance Company for a
license under the law should be re-
iected.
The question relative to the right of
an old-line company to scale its policy
claims, grew out of the taking over by
the Mutual Reserve Life Insurance
Company of certain policies of the
Northwestern Life Assurance Company
of Chicago. In doing SO the local com
pany agreed to establish a reserve fund
as required by law, and the reinsurance
at less amount, figured at per cent
interest upon the premiums computed
according to approved actuaries' tables.
Mr. O'Connor enters into discussion
of the scaling down of the policies, and
reviews the argument submitted by the
company in defense of its action. He
comes &c the conclusion that there was
a scaling OF the policies, the company
to the contrary notwithstanding.
Mr.. O'Connor takes the ground with
reference TO the issue OF the license that
the company has not c implied with the
law contained in section 653 of the code,
in that is has not for the twelve months
preceding the application paid the
maximum amount named in the policies
or certificates OF membership. He ad-
vises that the license be not issued.

THIRTY YEARS AWAKE

Coffee causes insomnia and physicians
are agreed that this is one of the most
distressing of all nervous complaints It
Is seldom indeed that a man who has
reached the advanced age of eighty-one
years Is entirely cured of insomnia of
thirty years standing. An old gentle
man or Philadelphia says: II have been
d great sufferer for many years from in
somnla. | am eighty-one years of age
and can truthfully say that until l quit
conee and commenced the use of Postum
rood Coffee | had not known real re-
freshing sleep for more than thirty
years.
POSTUM was prescribed for me by my
doctor, who made me quit coffee. I have
now used Postum for more than two
years and its good effects are both Won
dertul and permanent. | regard 1t as a
good friend not only as a remedy for
conee Ills but as a pleasant and nourish-
ing food drink with a fine flavor. Several
OF my friends are using 1t to great ad
vantage and think it much superior TO
coffee.

Followed closely 1t cannot fail to give
