London Neglects Shakespeare.

London has never had q memorial to
Shakespeare. Recently q resident Of
that city offered to donate $12, 500
toward the purpose, If the county coun-
Gil would accept a financial RESPONSE
bility in the undertaking and secure
other contributions. This the council
declines to do, and, as much as it ap-
preciates the fitness of thus honoring
the greatest of English poets, some one
else must guarantee the full funds be-
fore it will entertain the provision of
a site. Meantime the city which Shakes
peare so highly hcnored will ignore the

would respect his memory, and confne

Left-Handed Appendicitis.

A we'll known minister of the gospel,
who has a delightful charge not 1000
miles from Brooklyn, tells a good story
on himself. During his vacation this
summer he was suddenly seized dur
ing the night with a severe pain in the
side. He is extremely nervous, but,
withal, brave. His groans awakened
his wife, who tremblingly asked:
"Why, dear, whatever is the mat
ter?"
ooh, l have a terrible pain in my
side"
II know" said his wife, cts that
terrible appendicitis. 1 have been
afraid you would get it some day"
1T can't be appendicitis, my dear, it
is on the left side"
"But, John, you must remember that
you have always been left-handed."-

plants which he has on his land, other
wise the eggs will not be sent. The

Whole Thing Himself.

The only name on the list of voters for

he appoints himself overseer at the an

Ancient French Fairs.

An unsuccessful effort has been made
in France to revive the fair Of Beau
caire on a scale comparable to that of
the good old times. These fairs began
in the thirteenth century, and gradually
rose TO such proportions that in 1890,
for instance, the business transacted
amounted to 10000, 1000 francs. Before
the middle of the last century the rail-
way changed all this, and to-day the
fair is a mere shadow of its former self.

DONE BY TRYING.

Nobody can tell what he can
do till he tries. When a thing
ought to be done the modern
spirit moves us to keep working
away at it until it is done. In
the face Of this idea the "impos-
sible" vanishes. Where there's
a will, there's a way. eff we
could but rob cod liver oil of
its sickening taste and smell and
then combine it with two or
three other ingredients we should
possess the best remedy in the
world for certain diseases that
are now practically incurable."
So said a famous English physi-
clan twenty-five years ago. "But
it will never be DONE" he added.
"You can no more turn cod liv-
er oil into a palatable medicine,
than you can turn the Goldfish
itself into a Bird of Paradise"
Yet he lived to admit that in
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
the impossible had been &C.
complished. 1t is palatable as
honey and contains all the nu-
tritive and curative properties of
Pure Cod Liver Oil, extracted
by us from fresh cod livers, COM
bined with the Compound Syrup
of Hypophosphites, Extracts of
Malt and Wild Cherry. This
remedy is freed from the bad
peculiarities DR.. rockingham so
detested, and it is precisely the
splendid medicine he wished for.
Use it freely and confidently for
Hysteria, Wasting Complaints,
Anemia, Blood Impurities, Asth-
ma, and Throat and Lung Trou-
bles. DR.. W. II. B. Atkins, Ply
stefan to Toronto General Hos
pital, says: 81 am much pleased
to state that the results from
using Wampole's Preparation of
Cod Liver Oil have been uni
formly satisfactory; it appealed
to me as being prepared accord
ing to correct scientific princi-
pies" 1t increases the appetite
and influences the digestion of
food; it is delicious to take, will
not disappoint you, and is effec-
tive from the first dose. One bot

Big shipments of potatoes have been

on the way will bring them from Seat

but few island potatoes on the market.
A shipment from KuIa, Maui, a few
days ago was eagerly snapped up but
the potatoes are said to have been
small. Old potatoes are now selling
from one and three-fourths to two
cents pound. New potatoes are bring
ing two and one-half cents and fancy
ones range as high as three cents.
The Australian onion shipments are
now about over for this season and
the California market is just opening.
Fruit men say that the crop of fruit
here this season is disappointing. It
is now the height of the season for
alligator pears and mangoes but neither
of those fruits are making a good show
ing. The mango crop is much less than
usual. There are few alligator pears
and most of these are of inferior quail
ity. So fruit men have possibly bought
more oranges and other California
fruits in order to make up for the loss
of Hawaiian fruit.
Wet weather is blamed for the small
fruit crop and this has also affected
the grapes.

Verdict Guilty Against
]. Kumalae and

Notion in Arrest Of Judgment
Particulars in Land Office
Fraud Cases.

Jonah Kumalae, a Representative for
the Fourth district, and Enoch John
son, attorney-at-law. were found guilty
of conspiracy by the jury before Judge
De Bolt yesterday afternoon at 3:O9
O'Clock, after a elaboration of about
twenty-five minutes. Defendants were
indicted for conspiring to defraud the
| Territory of $S12.5O under the head of
expenses OF the House special commit
tee on the Chinese fund.
The jury consisted of David Hale
manu-, VIM. F. Erving, F. L. Dortch,
E. r. Bath William Dunbar, L. c.
Ables. r. w. Davis, Thomas Andrews,
Charles P. Osborne Henry P. Roth,
j. w. L. Mcclure and Frank E. Nichols.
In the jury room Mr.. Ables was elect
ed foreman.
Mr.. Ashford made a clever address
great stress on the authority claimed
for Kumalae, as chairman of commit
tee. to appoint it's clerk and choose it's
legal adviser, Johnson having been
paid for services in both those capa-
cities When he followed the practice
of abusing the attorney for the other
side, which he did by sarcastic refer
ences to the fishery decision at Wash
ington, it is doubtful if ne made any
impression upon the practical men of
business who formed a large majority
Of the jury.
Attorney General Andrews made a
very able presentation of the case for
the Territory, although at the disad-
vantage of having to break off in the
middle for the noon recess. Still his
concluding remarks were if anything
more closely reasoned and direct to the
points at issue than his beginning.
The claim of Kumalaes authority in
mourning expenses at pleasure was in
part answered by quoting Representa-
tive Kumaiae, in his place in the
Legislature, as saying: Let Mr..
Chillingworth read the report, as he
has done all the work. referring to
the report of the Chinese fund COM

After the verdict had been returned,

ground that it was contrary to the law
and the evidence and to the weight OF

The Lawless ShoaI.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 14.-Captain
Lawless of the steamer Australia. who
claims to have discovered a shoaI in
the Pacific, in about the neighborhood
OF latitude 20 deg. north, longitude 1876
deg. west, for which the cruiser Ia
coma recently searched in vain. has
mad a talk with Captain Nicholson of
the Tacoma regarding the alleged shoal.
captain LaWless is as firm as ever in
his belief that he saw a shoal in the
region described, as evidenced by dis
coIorauons on the surface. At the time
captain Lawless was trying to make
time in the Australia and did not Iinger
TO investigate. But ne insists that
shoal water. or comparatively shoaI
water, exists in the position mentioned.
Seafarlng men say that the four days
search made by the Tacoma might have
missed the shoal, and that the war
ship could have passed to and fro with
In two miles OF it without making out
the discoioTation on the surface. In
captain Lawless' opinion, a vessel look
ing for the shoal should remain in
those seas several weeks, if necessary,
before returning here with a definite re-
port.

MUST PAY
MORE DUTY
Tasmanian Shells Are
Classified AS
Jewelry.

The Tasmanian shell leis which are
worn SO extensively in Honolulu are
now classed as jewelry by Collector
Stackable, instead of curios or shells.
The difference in the classification
means an increase of duty of twenty
five per cent, and the importers have
appealed from the decision through
Broker Johnson. The appeal is in the
form of a protest against the assess
ment of duty on the shells as articles
Of jewelry. The importers claim that
the Ieis, as a matter of fact, cannot be
called jewelry and are not on sale in
jewelry stores. They say that the leis
are known nowhere as jewelry, that
they have no clasp, but are simply fas-
tened on a cotton string, and the shells
cannot by any stretch of the magma
ton be construed as being precious
stones. The assessment on the shells
as curios was at thirty-fve per cent,
and the duty on jewelry is sixty per
cent, making a considerable difference
in the amount of customs duties which
the importers are now required to pay.
The shells are imported from Tasn1a-
MIA In great quantities and find ready
sale not only in Honolulu but to visit
ing tourists. Recently the price has
been increased slightly because of the
added duty, and there is shortage of
the shells in the city. This is due to
the fact that the importers are taking
the leis from the custom house only
under protest, as they are required to
deposit the amount of the Increased
duty. Until there is a decision from the
higher authorities there Will be prob
ably shortage of the leis in the city.

July 1. 1902. to July 1. 1903, the income
of the Territory was $2.S97, S25-24.
Factors have come into the situation,
the Governor considers. which may
make the income for the year last men,

tions of revenue. Taxes are liable to
fall in amount owing to depreciation

upon which to estimate expenditures.
THE appropriations viii have TO be
either that amount, or under it, the

He has steam, and is a bad man for
throwing to first base. The latter by
