FOUND STREET

A police officer found the door of the

Rosenwasser proprietor, open early
yesterday morning. When the officer
tried the doors on his beat Mrs. Rosen-
wassers was closed but the spring lock
was shot back. Mrs. Rosenwasser was
sent for, and an investigation OF the
premises did not disclose any loss.
Mrs. Rosenwasser believes the small
desk she uses for her books and papers
was ransacked, but she left no money in
the store when she closed up on Sat
urday night. A tin box used for val
liable papers was undisturbed. Mrs.
Rosenwasser says that when she closed
the establishment she tried the door as
usual and found It was safely locked.

mopped his perspiring countenance.

His office duties, however, did not
relieve McGurn of serving papers in
new suits sent down from the Circuit
Court, levying executions, etc. McGurn
was also very strict In exacting sa-
lutes from the patrolmen. One of the
officers had the temerity to call him
Mack, and was frozen by glance
from the Chief
On the whole, McGurn proved a very
satisfactory High Sheriff, pro TEN.

SOME HUMORS
OF THE CAMPAIGN

One Of the Home Rule candidates
for supervisor in West Hawaii former
ly served as a deputy tax assessor.
Recently tax receipt issued by him
was found, which bore in its date the
year 1903. Some of the Republican
spell-binders, with that document as
a text, roasted the Home Ruler to a
finish. They asked the people whether
they should entrust county business
to a man who was off seventeen thou
sand years in his reckoning of time
under the Christian era
One of the nomination papers from
the island of Hawaii designated, I'm
the way 1t was worded, Secretary Geo.
II, Carter as candidate for super
visor.
A candidate on Oahu drew his check
FOR the nomination fee of s25, payable
TO the treasurer of Oahu county. He
may have had conscientious scruples
against giving the "effete" centralized
government any money.

NOTHING IN
THE POINT.

Col ]. II. Fisher has raised ques-
tion about the Oahu county election,
which is causing earnest discussion.
He has submitted to Registrar Buck
land the proposition that the entire
body of voters should vote for all seven
supervisors under the following section
Of the County Act:
Section 10. The County Of Oahu
shall have Board of Supervisors con-
sisting of seven members, two men,
bers thereof to be elected from the
Fourth district, two members from the
Fifth district, and the remaining three
to be elected at large and without re-
gard to their place of residence within
said county,"
Attorney General Lorrin Andrews
was asked for his opinion OH the ques-
ton and responded as follows to an
Advertiser reporter:
Il don't think there is anything in it,
THE clause is that two supervisors
shall be elected from the Fourth and
two from the Fifth district.
IF it said that two should be elected
who lived in the Fourth, and two who
lived in the Fifth, there might be
something in Col. Fishers contention. !
Undoubtedly, in my mind. it means
that they should be elected from their
respective districts.
"Otherwise, the provision might in
volve the result of one districts hay-
ing no representative, as the votes of
the whole county might elect seven
supervisors all of whom lived in one
district. This eventuality would of
course void the election under the pro-
vision in question"
A. S. Humphreys. who Is quoted by
an evening paper as the author of a
legal opinion supporting Col Fishers
point, met an Advertiser reporter at
he Judiciary building and stated that
he had merely answered Col. Fisher in
L restaurant. His opinion went no

TAKES WOMAN'S FORM

ABOUT midnight the volcano was giving
most brilliant exhibition when nil
or sudden an immense smoke cloud
began to form. Illumined from below
1t first took the form of an enormou,
palloon. Then changing slowly 1t form
ed perfectly into the likeness of n
gigantic woman. 1t was so distinct as
to be almost startling. The form re-
manned for some minutes, one arm OK
'ehueu over kau as If in benediction,
the other arm extended toward Kona
apparently holding stick or spear.
The form then changed into that of
cat or tiger sitting on its launches
with It's tail curved up behind.
OF what these forms are omens is not
known. Fennell says it was Madame
Pele leaving Mokuaweoweo to descend
to her other abode, Kilauea This may
or may not be.
The display Of Mokuaweoweo crater
has continued undated since the first
explosion last week. Several parties
have already returned from the crater
and state that, while there has been
no flow, the crater is a seething mass
of molten lava, bubbling and roaring
and full Of fountains of shooting many
feet into the air and falling back in
cascades Of sparks.
The Home Rule spell-binders are now
holding forth in Kau. They have been
received all along Kona with the ut
most enthusiasm and claim an easy
victory on election day
