SOME TROUBLE
At THE MEETING

a little band of men and women hold
interesting religious services at Oahu
Prison for the cnnvicts every Sunday.
Tho services have been going on for
months and have proved of consider
able benefit to the crowd of miserable
men confined there. Under a magnifi-
cent shade tree the convicts are group
ed in neat seats while their visitors
speak eloquent sermons. sing, and
pray for them but there is one feature
of the afternoon services that Warden
Henry had to put his foot down on
hard. He had to muzzle the convict
preachers"
The missionaries thought it would
be nice to permit some of the more in
telligent, religiously inclined convicts
to also do some speaking on Sundays.
Men like George Wade, who is serving
life Imprisonment and ten years adj
ditional for the murder of Gillespie,
were among those who Joined the
preaching fraternity. Wade is a very
i telligent and fine looking colored
man. He had some enemies among
other prisoners and proceeded to get
back at them on Sunday afternoons.
If he had a grudge against some man
he would look up a chapter in the
bible which specially fitted this mans
case and then would solemnly read it
on Sunday afternoon. Perhaps George
would also look the guilty party in the
face at the same time. Others did the
same as Wade and they managed to
make life pretty uncomfortable for
some of the other convicts. The offend
ed ones promptly made complaint 10
Mr. Henry and hereafter the service
will be conducted entirely by persons
who reside outside of the confines Of
the fell.
Il IS said that Wade hopes for
pardon. He is at times quite a sick
man.

A DANGEROUS DISEASE.-Every
one knows that cholera morbus is one
of the most painful and dangerous
diseases known to humanity. The fact
that it is SO swift and so often fatal
in its results makes it more to be

It often terminates in death before a
physician can be summoned or medi-

family should be prepared. Chamber

REPORTED LEPROsY CURE

subject Of a reported cure of leprosy
in Louisiana, which was read and dis
cussed. The preamble mentioned a
newspaper clipping attached as the
basis of the report.
DR.. Mays while expressing approval
of the purpose of the resolution, stated
his belief that the alleged remedy was
simply Chaumoogra oil, which had been
tried in every leper settlement in the
world. Tt had well-known palliative
effects, but there had never been a
welI-authenticated case where it had
cured leprosy. Tht re was a furore
over the claimed Writ es of this oil
fifteen years ago, but thorough tests
made in this country and elsewhere
had not yielded the results anticipated
After some general discussion. DR..
Mays seconded the resolution, which
passed as follows:
Resolved, That the President Of this
Board be and he is hereby instructed
to forthwith communicate with the Of
ffcers of the Louisiana Home and as
certain the means employed with full
particulars as to the diet and daily
routine in the case discussed or any
other case in which it is claimed that
a cure has been affected.

HIS NARROW ESCAPE.
President Roosevelt Thrown from His
Eorse-Lies Unconscious in
Field.

Washington, Nov. 3.-President
Roosevelt had an escape from death, so
narrow that it was almost miraculous,
while he was riding through the country
near Washington week ago last Sun
day afternoon. The accident did not be-
come known until Wednesday. The
president was approaching high fence
at top speed, when his horse stumbled
and fell, throwing Mr. Roosevelt heavily.
He struck squarely on his head, and
was so severely stunned that he was
unconscious for some time, just how
long he does not know, as he was riding
entirely alone. When he regained his
senses he found his horse standing near
him. The president tried to mount, but
was SO dizzy from the shock that he
could not stand. 1t was some time be-
tore he regained full control of his legs
and arms He then remounted and rode
at a slow pace to the point where his
orderly was waiting for him. BY that
time there was a great lump on the right
side of the presidents head and blood
was trickling from a long but shallow
scalp wound above the right ear, where
his head had grazed a stone. The cut
extended down onto the forehead and
the evidences of it are still there. The
president regards it as miracle that his
neck was not broken by the force of his
fall. The president ordered that not a.
word be said about his accident. A
prominent official told the story to show
how close Secretary Hay had been to
the presidency.

Charlotte, N. c., Nov. "a reservoir

The north side of the reservoir, which
is 80 feet high, tumbled over, falling
upon the home and barn of Martin
Peoples. There were about 100000 gal
Ions of water in the reservoir, and the
mad stream rushed northeast to the
Southern railway cut, and thence to
Belo's pond, a distance of half mile.
Four tenement houses were washed sew
eral hundred yards.
The thousands Of gallons Of water that
flowed from the reservoir formed a pond
in the vicinity and it was thought that
several people might have been drowned
in this.
