FUTURE SPANISH KINGS.

The Infanta Eulalia of Spain, who

Chicago, with her pretty coquetry and
Hne insignificance of her husband

her two sons. Alfonso. and Luis. not

sent them to Heidelberg university
The boys are now respectively Is and IS

@. S. S. SONOMA
GETS AWAY LATE

The Sonoma resumed her voyage to
the Colonies shortly befor, three yes
terday afternoon. Upon her arrival
here she was expected to get away
at nine in the morning, but delay in
getting out the freight held her up.
The Sonoma had about 500 tons of
freight for this port, there being about
a dozen buoys for Captain Niblack, the
Lighthouse inspector.
The delay in getting out the freight
was caused by the poor judgment of
the stevedores in San Francisco. sgd
ney freight was piled on top of that
for this port, and another fault was
in putting the majority of the freight
IN one place, Decessitating slow work.
Work on unloading began at ) o'clock
Wednesday afternoon and went on
steadily until the time the Sonoma
sailed.
Through passengers We're hanging
around from nine O'Clock in the MORN
ing, waiting for the vessel TO sail. The
band was not in attendance and the
long wait was extremely monotonous.
Only six passengers Joined the So
noma at this port.

RED LINE BOATS
STOP AT TANNING

The Vancouver Province of Wednes-
day had the following interesting note
about the present trip of the steamer
Moana:
The fears of the Dominion Govern
mental postal authorities that if the
steamships of the Canadian-Australlan
line, plying between Vancouver and
Sydney. were allowed to call at Fam
ming island the mail service would be
disadvanta geously affected. appear to
have been groundless if the voyage of
the steamship Moana may be used as
a criterion,
The first call at Tanning island, the
bare little rock which forms a rest.
ing place in mid-Pacific just above the
Equator for the British Pacific cable,
was made by the steamship Moana on
Sunday. A message stating the arrival
and departure of the Moana was re-
ceived from Tanning island to-day via
the British cable. The Moana reached
Tanning islaI9d on Sunday morning and
left after stop of couple of hours,
during which time supplies of mails
were sent ashore to the cable oper-
ators. Six calls per annum on north
bound trips are to be made at Tanning
island by the Canadian Australian lin
ers. Notwithstanding the run of two
hundred miles out of her regular track
to call at Tanning island the Moana as
on time and she is scheduled to touch
at Honolulu to-day and to arrive here
a week from tomorrow.
The Moana is coming from Sydney
this voyage under command of Capt.
John Glib. who succeeded Capt. Carey,
who retired some months ago when
the vessel was laid up at Sydney for an
overhauling. This will be the first call
of the Moana at this port for many
months. While off the route the Moana
which made three trips on the run.
Capt Glib, although long in the SER
vice of the Union Steamship Company
on the coasts of New Zealand and Aus
tralia, is making his first acquaintance
with the ports of call on the Canadian
at Brisbane previous to taking the Mo-
ana in there on his present trim. All
the other ports of call were likewise
new to Capt. Glib, but notwithstand-
ing he is making the best of time. At
the Hawaiian islands the Moana will
take on 500 tons of raw sugar consigned
to the British Columbia Sugar Refining
Company at this port.-Victoria Colo

GRAVEYARD
INSURANCE
Masonic Concern Takes
Risk That Others
Decline.

! a contest over insurance money of
$4,000, less a small banking charge for
collection. left by the late Allan B.
Scrimgeour, occupied the attention OF
Judge Robinson most of yesterday. The
amount was collected by the admin
istrator, David Dayton. under two GER
tfficates of $4,000 and $1,000 respectively
issued by the Western Masonic Mutual
Benefit Association. Cecil Brown APP
peared for the administrator, whose
legal adviser he had been throughout.
w. A. Whiting and Robins B. Anderson
appeared for the creditors of the es-
tate, and Royal D. Mead of Smith &
Lewis for two nephews of the de-
ceased. The last mentioned are AL
Ian B. and Harold, sons of the
late r. S. Scrimgeour, who died
here a short time before his brother,
whose estate is now the, subject of con-
troyersy. They are just entering man
hood and live at Oakland, Cal.
The creditors claim that the insur-
ance money is part of the estate of the
deceascfd for regular administration On
the other hand, the nepnews claim, as
sole heirs, to be entitled to- the whole
amount. Their reliance is on the word
ing of the certificates and the tenor of
the bylaws of the Masonic benefit con-
Germ, which, it is claimed, make pay
ment of the insurance to the heirs at
law obligatory.
Mr.. Brown testified to the advice and
direction he had given to the admin
istrator and to the collection of the
money through the First National Bank
of Hawaii, of which he is president.
the drafts having been paid by the Ma
tional Bank of Yankton, South Da-
kota.
Mr.. Dayton gave evidence of
his doings in the matter of cor
respondence, including a letter from
Oakland warning him that he
was subject to fine and imprison-
nent" if he did not Immediately pay
over the money to the heirs. He an
swered a question, saying he did not
inform the association that he was pro-
ceeding to collect the money as trus-
tee for the heirs.
John S. Walker testified that he was
q partner of A. B. Scrimgeour and
knew from personal discussion with
him when alive that he sought life in
surance for the; benefit of his creditors.
None of the regular insurance COM
panies would insure his life, but a man
named Woolley dropped into town rep
resenting the Western Masonic Mutual
Benefit Association. According to the
witness there was not much trouble in
obtaining the two certificates of insur-
ance alrhady mentioned through Mr..
Woo1ley's agency.
The insured man, it was shown by
exhibits at the hearing, had paid but
little more than $50 in membership
fees and premiums before he died.

Notes from letter of Rev. Charles E.
Hurlburt of Kijabi to Mrs. A. W.
Gulick, of August 16, 1904
Mr.. Hurlburt went to the Kijabi sta
ton on June 10, to meet Mr.. Gulick
whom he found quite Frustrated. He
had consulted physicians at Nakuru
and Kaiyasha, all of whom agreed that
he only needed rest and milk diet to
be all right in two or three days. The
train was run two miles near to the
mission station. and Mr.. Quick was
carried the remaining half mile in a
hammock He was delighted to find
rest among friends, felt quite COM
Portable. and rested well that night.
On the morning of the nth he was
very cheerful, and asked many ques-
tions about the missionary work. But
in the afternoon the bowel trouble re-
CURED with much pain, and tempera-
ture 102 degrees. The pain was
promptly relieved by hot applications.
Mr.. Hurlburt at once sent a messen-
ger to the mission doctor, who was "a
miles away. DR.. Henderson lost his
way in coming, and did not arrive till
1880 p. m. of Sunday, the 18th, when
Mr.. Gulick was quite comfortable, He
seemed much improved on Monday
and took broth with relish. On the
18th, at noon, the doctor pronounced
the disease absolutely under control
and that his presence was not longer
needed. But about 4 D. M the patient
experienced q sudden change and fell
into rapid collapse from which all
possible restoratives only slightly rail-
lied him.
He was buried on the 10th in
lovely spot under the cedars and wild
olives. Besides Mr.. Hurlburt and the
doctor, Messrs. Stauffacher and Will
liam Judd were present to bear the
coffin. Mr.. Hurlburt addressed the
whites and DR.. Henderson the natives,
and after prayer and song, Jesus calls
us DER the tumult of our life's wild
restless sea- we laid the body to rest"
Owing to desire to keep the patient
quiet. and to expectation of his speedy
recovery, all statement about Mr.. Gu
lick's own family had been postponed.
and Mr. Hurlburt was able to report
his death only to his companion, Mr..
S. t. Alexander, then far in the inte-
rior. Not until two months later did
Mr.. Alexander's arrival cause the let
ter to Mrs. Gulick to be written.

The Friend. which was issued yes
terday, contains the following about the
last days and death of the Rev. Thomas
| S. T. Alexander to Africa:
Mombasa, British E. Africa,
| August p, 1904.
Dear Mrs. Gulick:-
After three months absence in the
| interior of this great continent Annie
and 1 are back again here at Mombasa.
1 am pleased to report that we are
| both in very good health and are start
ing for South Africa From Cape Town
we will take a steamer to England and
I hopa to see you about the first of
November next.
I wrote you at length from the north
extremity of Lake Baringo after re-
ceiving the overwhelming news of poor
Toms death. The first news was stun
ming, but if anything, the sense
of bereavement and loss has grown
upon me. I can realize how lonely and
sad you must feel without his kindly
face and cheering presence. I feel now
that I more fully appreciate Toms
worth. There is no one that will fill
his place. During the rest of my brief
life that remains to me, notwithstand-
ing my family ties and friends, there
will be an aching void which nothing
can fill.
On the first receipt of the sad news
my first impulse was to abandon my
caravan and rush off to Kijabi, but on
reflection I realized that there would
be nothing gained by doing 50. Tom
was gone, and / could not bring him
back to life again. / had gone to great
expense in colfspting a gang of men
and provisions; more than that, Annie
was with me and I had to consider her
in the matter, so We concluded to leave
out the trip to Lake Albert Nyanza,
Ruwenzori and the Toro country, and
visit only Gaushen Gishu and LaE9 Vic |
toria Nyanza.
Well, We have had two months of
wild life. We have been among wild j
tribes and wild animals. We have |
heard the lions roar by day and by |
night and we have chased them and /
saot them, too. We have seen vast {
herds of CRATES and zebras. We have |
killed rhinos and elephants, besides |
specimens of most all the animals in |
this country. Annie will have skulls /
and skins by the dozen for the Uniyer- (
sity of California. She has taken a |
great many photographs. too: several |
in which Tom appears viii interest |
you. We have the skulls of three ami |
mails which Tom shot, which in due |
time you will receive.
After leaving Entebbe we went d.

rect to kijabi and spent four days
with the Hurlburts. I vas amazed TO
find that Mr.. HurIburt had not written
you the particulars of Toms last i'll
ness 1 took it for granted that he
would do SO. At my request he sat
right down and wrote you. Annie has
taken photographs of the house and
people and of the lovely spot where
Tom rests, which we will Ike TO you
on our return. Where Tom rests is
indeed a beautiful spot. but, oh. the
inexpressfble sadness that came over
ME as 1 looked on his grave. 1 almost
wished that I slept beside him. oh.
for the touch of a vanished hand and
the sound OF voice that is STILL
l was very much pleased with the
Hurlburts. They are kindness itself
and most devoted people. I felt at
home the moment I came under their
friendly roof. All the children, I'VE in
number, are very interesting If love

I concluded from all that 1 could
learn. that Tom did not suffer much.

trouble on the way to Nairobi. must
have had something to do with it. I
remember that while we We're at the
Nakuru station, we took a walk down
to the lake some four miles distant,

am satisfied that he felt that he ought
to give it up. but poor fellow, he want
ed to be with US and join in the fun.
Later on his hip gave out, and start
ed him back in a stretcher. but he had
not been carried many miles before he
concluded TO return. If he had come
back then. L think his life might have
been saved.
I have been gathering his things to-
gether. His baggage 1 will
send as freight through Anderson and
Mayer to Alexander & Baldwin, 81
Wall Street, New York, who will be
instructed to forward it to you.
Hoping to find letter from you at
