The Story Of Brissndsge Told by
Young Cooper Ms cts General
Public Incredulity.

Three daring disciples of Pat Grove
are said to have made a bold attempt
to abduct Theodore, the thirteen-year-
old son of Superintendent of Public
Works Cooper, shortly before o'clock
yesterday morning, while the boy was
leaving the basement of the Punahou
Preparatory School. After securing
the obedience of the boy by flourish
ing a revolver and a rifle the quartette
went along the ridge above Manoa
valley, crossed into the valley on the
other side, and when two of his cap
tors were off their guard young Coo
per made a dash down the gully,
rounded Round Top and came into

The story of young Cooper's exper-
fences reads like page from book on

in the basement he was accosted by an

by two other men, one armed, and the
three forced the boy to take to a trail
leading past the old Manoa quarries
to the Manoa ridge. The boy was
compelled to go barefootad because his
shoes slipped on the grass and retard-
ed his progress.
Three hours after his capture, the
boy reached the Cooper residence on

It was suggested that Camp Nc

The UNION
Carpenters Tell
Why They Won't
Work.

The Carpenters Union held a meet
Peter High and his difficulties, but it
was stated after the meeting that
there had been no trial of the Portu-
guese laborer upon charges preferred
by the Union. President Thos. o.
Brien stated that the carpenter re-
ferred to had asked that his name be
Carpenters Union cheerfully granted
the request.
President O'Brien and other members
of the union denied also the truth OF
some of the statements made by Mr..
High. Particular objection was made
to the statement that a union man had
asked Mr.. High for employment, but
refused to work en- the schedule. The
carpenter in question says that Mr..
High called on him twice to secure his
services, but that he wouldn't go, al
though better wages were offered, for
the simple reason that he believed it
an attempt to break up the union.
"The Carpenters Union is not an
tagonistic to building contractors and
we get along all right with all of them
but Mr. High" said President O'Brien.
I'VE haven't got any special fight on
Peter High, but if union men don't
want to work with Japanese and at the
hours he fixes, they are not compelled
ter High and don't intend to. We
simply intend to leave him severely
alone.
Union men are willing to work
nine hours a day, or ten hours or all
night. if necessary to finish a hurry
contract, but they are entitled to ex-
ira paw for all over eight hours. Two
years ago the bosses and the carpen-
tiers signed an agreement at four dol
lars for an eight hour day, and agreed
not to hire japanese. All of them
have kept to their agreement but Pc
ter High He was fined fifty dollars
once for a violation.
THE whole trouble is that he can't
get carpenters to finish his jobs. He
has been taking small jobs about town
at low figures in order to beat out the
union. This Kerr building contract
has a specification which requires him
Ia employ citizen labor. and the only
trouble is he can't get enough men to
finish the work.
Then Peter High isn't the only man
that gives his men half holiday on

ADMIRALTY LIBEL
FOR HOUSE BOAT

Mary K. Almy has brought a libel in
admiralty in the United States District
Bcourt against Cotton Bros. &c Co.,
claiming s25OO for the loss of a house
& boat. She states in her complaint that
the house boat was the sole and separ-
ate property of herself, free from the
management control, debts and obiiga-
tons of her husband.
It is alleged that the boat was wreck
ed on August 4, near the entrance OF
Kalihi harbor while under lease to the
4 libellees. who had undertaken on that
day to remove the vessel from Pearl
Harbor to the harbor of Honolulu. The
house boat was being towed by the
steam tug Kaena, having been placed
between that tug and two heavily laden
seows. 1t is alleged that the total loss
of the house boat was caused directly
and proximately by the carelessness
and negligence of the libellees. in re-
zspect to the position they gave it in the
7s<<y. to the selection of time having re-
md to conditions of wind and sea and
1 in particular to the attempt to tow too
much.

fbor and to pay $4,000 to the lessor in
case of it's total loss. A. S. Humphreys

OFFICIAL BOTTLE
PAPER PICKED UP

Mrs. P. Danson Kellett, Jr., on Sun
day last found bottle paper of the
U. S. photographic Office, enclosed in
a bottle. which contained the follow
ing memorandum:
Name, N McCallum.
Vessel, Drumcraig.
Date, August 7th, 1908.
Latitude, 10 deg ION. n.
Longitude, 154 deg. 20 m. W.
The bottle was picked up on the
beach at Mokapu Point, Kaneohe, Koo-
laupoko, Oahu. This is in latitude
p deg. Pm. 3.5s., and longitude ISL deg.
Ann. Sos How long the bottle may
have been lying on the beach cannot
be guessed. The location of the Drum
craig, as shown by the data, when the
bottle was thrown overheard, was on
a parallel of latitude that would cut
the southern end of the island of Ha-
wall a few miles inland, and on merid-
ian of Longitude that would run about
20 miles east of Cape Kumukahi, the
extreme eastern point OF Hawaii. The
Drumcraig was bound from San Fran
cisco to Sydney and arrived at her des-
tinatfon after a long passage.
Mr.. Kellett, husband of the finder,
after consulting the Survey office,
filled out the blanks on the paper and
mailed it to the photographic Office
at Washington as the printed instrue-
tons thereon direct.
