just as the United States gave freedom
to Cuba, with protectorate. Memorials
would be given to the members of the
convention for their signature. and he
hoped all would sign. This was greeted
with applause. These and any other
memorials to be passed by the conven-
ton, he said, should be sent to Wash
ington by the Delegate elected last fall.
He closed with an appeal for unity.
Curtis P. Iaukea was next called up
on for a speech. He said that he felt
something like a prodigaI son coming
back to his people, but he was glad
to see the faces before him. 1t panied
him to see attempts made to disrupt
the Home Rule party for he thought
the party of the Hawaiians should be
kept in existence. He blamed the Re-
publicans for insincerity, but said so
that there were Home Rulers who were
false to the declarations of the party
in its platform. That he could not join
the Home Rule party in it's fight, he
said, was cause of sorrow to him, but
he had chosen his party and would
abide by it. The choice of his party
for Delegate was the young ALI, who
had knocked at the door of Home Rule,
and had not been received.
The convention adjourned to meet
this morning at o'clock.

was said that two members of the COM

Poepoe said that the members must be

There were a number of nominations to
of Henry Meheula, ]. Kealoha, Peter
Makia, Ben Akala, J. a. Akina, and
the name of Curtis P. Iaukea was sent
up by Motley but withdrawn. The dis
cussion grew over Poepoe, there being
any number of declarations of friend
ship for him, and protestations that he
must not be permitted to quit. Finally
to secure peace the matter was per-
mitted to go over to today.

DECLARES FOR INDEPENDENCE
Former Delegate Wilcox was then in
troduced for a second speech and held
the audience with him for a half hour
He declared that the time had come for
unity. He said there must be no more
of the talking of the outbreak of fac
lions in the party, that only by pulling
together will there be gained the vic
tories that are wanted. He reviewed
the fights of the past. saying that three
years ago the fact that the people were

quently the Republicans won handily.
Likewise he told just how the Repub-
licans came to win giving the delegates
some information of the organiza ton of
the Republican methods of carrying on
the war.
Taking up the local campaign which
is now to open, he said that it was a
time for the people to select the very
best men among the Hawaiians to lead
their tickets. There are many rel:
gions, he said, and a man is not judged
by the church he attends. So with
the parties. there are good men in each
and the duty of the convention was to
make up a ticket of the very best men
possible, but of course making sure
that all were Hawaiians.
Taking up his plans Tor the future

Flight of the Spirit.

A case recorded by Plutarch would
seem to support the theory that during
periods of protracted insensibility the
spirit of the sleeper, freed from the
body, wanders away to realms and
scenes not conceivable by the ordinary
senses. A man named Thespius, he
tells us, fell from a great height and
was picked up to all appearances dead.
There were no external wounds about
him, but the physicians were satisfied
Of the fact Of the decease.
Arrangements were made for his
burial, but on the third day after his
fall he revived, much to the consterna-
ton of his friends. In a short time it
became quite evident that the whole
tenor of the mans life had changed.
Previously his character was that of a
reprobate and a vicious man, but after
his insensibility he ever followed after
virtue. On being asked the reason of
the change, Thespius related that dur
ing his long sleep his spirit had been
liberated from his body and had scared
away to strange land, where it had
Joined a whole company Of other spir-
its.
His past life was disclosed to him in
all its hideousness, and the glorious
capabilities which were before him
were revealed IN such a manner as to
make him ambitious Of attaining them

RED PETE'S
LAST RIDE
BY c. B. LEWIS
Copyright, 1909, BIZ McClIre's Neirs paper
Syndicate

! Outlaw, thief, robber and murderer,
they had him safe in Jail at last. Red
Pete, as he was generally called, had
rendered himself a terror for years,
but the law had finally laid hands on
him, and he was tried for his life.
There had been a great deal of ro-
mancing over Red Pete. He was a
Robin Hood to many men and cheva-
lier and a hero to most women. There
was a general disappointment when
he was brought in by a sheriff's posse
with his feet dashed together under
the saddle and his arms tied behind
him. He was a young man Of twenty
four long haired, low browed. The
sentiment of chivalry had never been
awakened in his breast. and, as for be-
ing hero, he had robbed cripples and
shot men from ambush.
"A natural born tough" was the
popular verdict at Sunset City, but
among the few females who could not
rid themselves of the feeling of ro-
nance his adventures had called up
was the sheriff's daughter. a girl of
sixteen. Unfortunately for her. she
was motherless.
The widower sheriff. whose only child
she was, kept house in wing of the
Jail and, owing to the poverty of the
county, was allowed only one turnkey.
This was old Roberts. who was almost
a cripple and part of whose work
was often done by the girl. 1t fell to
her to carry the daily meals to Red
Pete, and he at once discovered that
he had friend in her. They did not
depend upon the brick walls and iron
bars of the old Jail to hold such a
man as had been run to earth. They
chained him to the wall, and they put
on an extra guard to pace the corridor
all night long.
1t was only when she carried his
meals to him and opened the wicket
of his door that Susie could pass few
words with Red Pete, but he made full
use of every opportunity. He praised
and admired and asked for sympathy.
and long enough before he was put on
trial he felt that he could reckon on
her aid whenever he asked for it.
1t took weeks to get witnesses to-
gether. and there were technicalities

of law to create further delay, but
ton made short work of the terror.
The jury returned verdict of guilty,
the judge sentenced him to be hanged
by the neck. and he was returned to
his cell and his chains to await the day
Of execution.
The verdict had filled the sheriff's
daughter with horror. 1t seemed to
her as if all the world was against one
man. That man might have been
somewhat wicked, as she would admit,
but he had been led astray by evil
counsel and was more to be pitied
than blamed. Her natural sympathies,
fed by the lies and protestations of the
man behind the grated door. finally
brought her to promise her aid that he
might escape disgracefuld death. They
were to ride away together. They were
to ride far. far away, and he would
make her his girl wife and love and
cherish her and become an honest man.
A mother would have destroyed his
plot in a moment, but there was no
mother to speak. She listened, SYM
pathized, admired and loved. In help
ing him out of the hands Of the law
she was helping him to reform; in 60
ing away with him she would encour-
age him in his new resolves.
:, The Jail was without cellar. On
the west side, where Red Pete was
confined, was an old shed used for fuel
and storage. Every night for twenty
eight nights the girl rose from her bed
when the jail had grown quiet and
slipped outdoors and into the shed.
With spade and iron bar she worked
for three or four hours each night to
tunnel under the walls to the prison
er's cell. She found heavy walls, car
ried far down, and there was a bed OF
cement as hard as rock and stone
door to the CELL 1t was hard, cruel
work for girl, but she was melted by
romance and love to persevere against
all obstacles. Each night she tofied
and labored, and each morning she re-
ported progress and received the coma
mendations of her hero.

A Debt of Honor.

The inconsiderate creditor pressed
for immediate payment of his promis-
sorry note.
But l have no money" said the
debtor YEARLY.
81 saw you pay that man who just
went out" retorted the creditor indig-
nantly.
"That was debt of honor" replied
the other, with hauteur.
The creditor Immediately tore up the
promissory note which he held in his
hand and threw it in the fire.
$50 is mine a debt of honor" he re-
marked simply.
So far so good, and the matter is pro-
ceeding along the proper lines for such
cases made and provided.
The debtor assured himself that the
promise to pay had been really con-
sumed.
pardon me-" he then politely said,
"but you tore up that note voluntarily
and from mercenary motives. I cannot
therefore recognize it as debt of hon.
or"
Which proves that nice sense of
honor is a good thing to have lying
about handy.
The creditor smiled indulgently. ooh,
that was only a copy tore up" he re-
piled. He took another note from his
pocket. ':This is the original, you see"
he remarked, with pardonable pride.
Which proves again that a careful
man before burning his bridges assures
himself that the ferry is still doing
business at the same old stand.

came the horses would be ready at

Few women could have carried that
secret through the long day without
betrayal, but the girl gave no sign and
aroused no suspicion. At o'clock at
night she passed out Of the Jail, made
everything ready and then waited at
the mouth of the tunnel. The con-
demned man above settled himself for
sleep. but removed his chains with the
file she had passed through the wicket
as the guard paced to and fro in the
corridor, let the stone sag under his
weight and two minutes later was in
the Oil shed beside the trembling girl.
Two horses stood near by, and she put
money, food and rife into his hands.

were prefaced with sneering laugh.

Each word struck the girl like the

strapped the rifle to the saddle and
mounted.
"Ain't you-you going to take me?"
she appealed at last.

out on the night air Red Pete threw up
