Roosevelt In Favor.

on the eve Of the State Republican
convention in Ohio. at which the mat
ter Of an Endorsement of the Hon.
Theodore Roosevelt for President. VIII
be presented, here comes the Hon.
Charles Dick one of Senator Hanna's
most trusted lieutenants, with a posi-
tive declaration in favor Of the Presi-
dent. and the prediction that nothing
can stop his nomination or election.
This would seem 10 indicate that all
talk about Senator Hanna becoming d
candidate for the Rep-oiIcau uomina-
tion is useless. IN case the Ohio State
convention indorses the President. and
calls for his nomination. Senator Hanna
cannot well become q candidate.
Speaking o. the President. this is
what Representative Dick says:
He surely viii be nominated and just
as surely Will he be elected. Nothing
can stop it, What VIII nominate him
is sentiment. The sentiment Of the
party as a whole is for him, and you
cant beat sentiment. I happened TO
be with Mckinley when Chauncey FiHey
Of Missouri, predicted his nomination
and election for similar reasons.
The major treated the prediction
jokingly, but Fjlley rejoined: 7 made
The same prediction after Garfield S
nomination in 1886, when many were
dubious Of his election. / found then
that sentiment was Tor Garfield. and told
him he would win. And now I have
found the sentiment Of the country is
TOT you and you VIII win And he was
right. You can't beat sentiment and

GIBSON DOWNS
INSURRECTION
REPORT FROM RE-
FORM SCHOOL THREATENED TO
DETAIN THE MILITIA.

superintendent Of Public instruction
A. T. Atkinson came down this morn
ing prepared to take extreme measures
to quell rebellion at the Boys Reform
School. A report reached Honolulu
yesterday that instruction had broken
out and an army of tough youths was
reported to be on the march to Homo
lulu, making one of General Smiths
bowling wildernesses of the territory
en- route.
Knowing that the National Guard
was to head for Kapiolani park early
this morning, some people thought that
the bad boys had purposely chosen the
occasion for a descent on the helpless
city. 1t was not too late to stop the
soldiers, however, and they could have
been headed the other way had alarm
ing reports continued to come from the
Reform school.
This mornings bulletins were re-
assuring, however. The insurrectos
were found to number only three and
one of them was only II years of age.
General I. H Gibson had sent the
army in three directions which was as
many as it could take, and had cap
tured one third of the forces opposed
to him. Then came an aide from the
police with news of another important
capture, reducing the army to John
Comes. Superintendent Atkinson dis
solved the board of strategy he was
forming and resumed civilian duties,
one of which was the reading of Glib
sons official report of the trouble, as
follows:
Three Portuguese boys, Frank Cal
deira, John Borges and Jonn Gomez,
aged about Is, Is and II years, escaped
on Saturday afternoon while in charge
of one of the guards on the sea beach.
They made a break and got into a
cane field. They were pursued and
Frank Caldeira captured, but the
others succeeded in getting off. have
notified the police and the High Sheriff.
otherwise we are getting on all
right. All the boys are in good health
and work is progressing"

BILLY WOODS AND
M|LLET MATCHED
COHEN'S PROMISING YOUNGSTER
AND A VETERAN OF THE RING
TO MEET IN SQUARED CIRCLE.

A match was made today and arti-
cles signed for a fifteen round go be-
tween Billy Woods and Joe Millet3 The
event is for purse of $1,000, the winner
to take 1000 and the loser 5000. 1t
will take place at the Orpheum Theatre
Saturday night, July IL. Both men
will go into training at once. Millet
will train at Paddy Ryan's place, Ka-
lihi.
Billy Woods has had wide ring eX-
perience, and has always sustained an
excellent reputation. He has fought
nearly every man of high rank in the
fistic profession in America and has
been the sparring partner at different
times of Corbett, Jeffries and Fitzsim-
mons. He had supposed he had retir-
ed from the ring, but the promising
qualities shown by Millet, and the in
terest shown in the sport here in Homo
lulu, has led to a number of business
men of prominence in the city interest
ing themselves and urging Woods to
prepare to go into the ring to meet the
youngster.
People who keep en- rapport with
ring matters, and know the relative re-
putations of men, say that this match
between Millet and Billy Woods, is as
big an event for Honolulu as the Cor
bett-Jeffries match is for San Fran
cisco.
