ExTENUATING CIRCUMSTANCES.

The Indians all knew Senator Quay
as their friend. a few months ago a
pretty Indian girl, from somewhere
away out West, journeyed to Washing
ton to secure the kindly offices of Sena-
tor Quay in procuring a pardon for her
brother. He had committed murder.
SeAator Quay listened to her story and
then asked:
Were there any extenuating circum-
stances connected with the shooting %
Yes, my brother killed at 500 yards, :"
said the maiden
This brought ray of hope to the
senator. He thought that any man
who could kill at 500 yards would APP
peal to the president Attorney Gen
eral Knox was visited. Mr.. Quay said:
81 have never asked you for anything
since you have been in office. I now
want something. l desire pardon for
this Indian"
The case was carried to the president,
and he was told of the extenuating cir
cumstances. There We're probably
others than his fine shooting. for the
Indian was pardoned.

GREATEST FIGHT
YET Is COMING

The next contest to be decided at the
Orpheum Theatre will be between the
above named and from ali accounts
will be a hot go. Both men are train
ing hard Murphy at the Healanf Boat
House and Riley at the Peninsula, and
win be in fine condition by next Satur-
day night when the contest will take
place. Riley, the new man, is quite
an old hand at the game, having been
in the ring over years and would have
been matched to fight Joe Millett be-
fore he left San Francisco but the local
clubs could not agree on dates to suit.
He is now on his way to Manila to fight
off here to get a match with Dave Bar
ry, but Barry having made all arrange
ments to leave here, Riley could not
be accommodated by Dave.
His contest with Murphy bids fair
to be the most exciting ever seen in
Honolulu, as both men are fast and
can stand great punishment and have
each a punch that Will do the business
when it lands. Every indication points
to Riley making the weight without any
damage to his chances, and as Murphy
is building up there will not be such a
in weight as there was at his
last contest.
There will be several good prelimin-
aries arranged to go on the same night
and popular prices will prevail.

Court. The district judge had impos
ed a fine OF $4,000 upon the editor fol
criticising his action in an injunction

editor was sent to Jail.
The amount Of the fine suggested a
spirit of vindictiveness that was GER

been discharged by the circuit judge.
But the important thing in the case is,
that had the action of the lower court

How the Change From Colored GAR

1t puzzles us often, too, to know how
it Is that for so many different occa-
sions black Is considered to be the
most fashionable shade for our mascu-
line attire and not merely fashionable,
but the only proper one, for which in
our society there Is no alternative. It
may be argued. as II is with the silk
hat, that it Is so severely respectable,
but If we could accustom ourselves to
the idea the same might be said OF
white, which would have the advan-
tage OF being much less gloomy. Clear

for its application TO evening dress, in
which ii is most Of all de rigueur now,
while there was n time when our an
cestOrs might tastefully dress them
selves in almost all the colors of the
rainbow for the evening. the adoption
of black simply came about through a
paragraph in celebrated novel, and
Il is the latter we have to thank for the
fact that we are not now permitted to
wear aught but the most solemn gar
ments at the time when we feel, to
say the least. more satisfied with all
about us and the world In general than
at any other period Of the day. Bnlwer
Lytton's novel, Pelham was the cui-
prit. and it is a letter in this book purs
porting to have been written by Lady
Frances Pelham to her son that set the
fashion. Lady Frances writes: "Apro-
pos of the complexion, | did not like
that blue coat you wore when ! last
saw you. You look best In black,
which is a great compliment. for peo-
pie must be very distinguished in APP
pearance to do so" The man of the
day read these lines and weighed them
and what more natural than
that he should straightway come TO the
conclusion that black was the one
