Enjoins Work on Ithmian Canal.

Warren b. Wilson, not a "Phila-
delphia lawyer" hitherto supposed to
be the embodiment OF legal acumen,
but plain Chicago lawyer, noted for
futility OF resource and boldness Of
endeavor, on the 2Sth nit, filed in the
district Supreme Court at Washing
ton, bill in equity for an injunction
against Secretary Shaw. the Republic
Of Panama, the new Panama Canal
Co. OF France, and Others, to stop con-
struction OF the isthmian canal.
Mr. Wilson asks that Secretary
Shaw be enjoined from permitting the
payment of any money under pre-
tended authority OF the act OF June
2Sth, 1902, entitled "An act to pro-
vide for the construction OF canal
connecting the waters OF the Atlantic
and Pacific Oceans" and AYERS that
there has been no appropria ton by
law Of any money payment for any Of
the constructive expenses, and contends
that the said act is in violation of the
Constitution Of the United States, and
null and void. He holds that the
treaty is wholly unconstitutional and
invalid, both in the United States and
Panama, and confers no rights and
imposes no obligations on either Of the
parties directly concerned.
He further charges that, even were
the act valid, its terms and conditions
have not been complied with, and do
not authorize the proposed payments,
which will, therefore, he alleges vio-
late the cons titution.
Mr.. Wilson declares that he visited
Washington solely to institute these
proceedings; that he represents no
person or persons whatsoever, except
himself; that the question appealed
to him personally, and that he pro.
posed to fight the case along to the
U. s. Supreme Court, which was the
only tribunal competent to pass upon
so important matter.

NAMES IN THE EAsT.-It seems a
little strange that many of the names
in the East are different at home than
abroad. Take for instance, Nippon at
home, Japan abroad; Korea, or Corea,
is known as Chen Sun, within the
little kingdom, meaning morning
calm" 1t is known abroad also as
the :" Hermit Kingdom" because it
has favored the policy of exclusion for
all foreigners, but the inhabitants do
not know that II has attained that
distinction among their neighbors.
Korea kept out foreigners long after
China and Japan had adopted a more
liberal policy. Then again so widely
known a sovereign as the Gar Of all
the Russians, is called Tar in his own
country.

A GIANT Now LOOMING UP IN THE
EAsT.-George Aver, an eight-foot
high circus giant in New York, is hav-
ing some trouble to obtain bed long
enough to sleep in, and has about
made up his mind to rent two Harlem
flats, remove the partitions and thus
provide room enough for him to
stretch his limbs. His trip over on
the French liner was beset with trou-
BILE, and the only way he could eat his
meals in comfort was to stand in the
main hatchway and eat from the deck.
He wears a shoe nineteen inches long
and hat 81 inches in diameter and it
takes as much cloth to make him
pair of pants as for two ordinary suits.
His appetite is in proportion, and a
twenty-cent meal would have to be
amplified at least six times to arrive at
the final course of pie and pudding.

\ QUEER DISPOSITION OF MORTAL
REMAISs-Col. c. NJ. Strader, U. S. A.,
who died on the Goth ult., in Phila-
delphia, left peculiar provision in his
will. After directing that all his debts
be paid, he directed that his body be
cremated and the ashes taken to
Louisville, his birthplace, and there
scattered in the waters OF the Ohio
river. elf" reads the will, latter this
process, the angel Gabreal, for whom |
have all due respect, can with his
trumpet arouse me from the dead, /
will take off my shadowy hat to him."
That Col. Strader was an agnostic is
shown by further quotation from his
will, in which he says, al pass away
believing in no other duty than is
specified by Pope as being 1.-THE First
Great Cause" believing that my first
duty is to my fellow man, and that he
who lives this life in justice to his peo-
pie and follows the precept of Him
who said Love thy neighbor as thy
SELF has nought to fear from the here
after, no matter what it is" Col.
Strader was a West Point graduate,
and one of the few Southern officers
who remained loyal to the Union. He
served, after the civil war, with Custer
and other we'll known commanders, in
Indian warfare.

A FLY-LEG CHANGES BANK STATE
MENT.-How trivial things sometimes
figure into LIES perplexities is shown
by employment of an expert account
ant for period of several months in
the St. Paul Bank of Commerce. 1t
was an apparent error of an even one
hundred dollars and the books were
gone over hundreds of times to find it,
when the accountants pencil hap
pened to rest on figure /, and the
point broke in two and slid down the
page. 1t turned out that the sup
posed figure Il" was a fly leg which
had become attached in front of $40,
making the item to all appearances
$l4O. The fly had evidently been
jammed in the book when closed, and
when the body dropped out one OF the
legs had adhered to the page in way
that had bafiled the expert.

DEATH OF Historic CHARACTER-
Benton Norvill Harrison, lawyer of
New York and husband Of Mrs. Bur.
ton Harrison, the authoress, died in
that city, last week, aged G5 years. He
bore no less distinction from having
been Jefferson Davis private secretary,
during the whole of war of Rebellion,
and, when the rebel chieftain was cap
tured, shared in his imprisonment
rather than to forsake his fortunes at
their fall. When Mr.. Davis was car
ried to Fort Monroe for imprisonment,
Mr.. Harrison was sent to prison in
Washington, and finally to Fort Della
ware, where he remained in solitary
confinement till 1866, when he was
released. During the latter months OF
his Imprisonment, he studied law, and
went into the Office OF former Judge
Fullerton in New York, where he had
since continued in practice.

RARE PICTORIAL
HISTORY OF FAIR
THAT'S WHAT OUR READERS SAY
ABOUT THE ST. LOUIS WORLDS
FAIR VIEWS.

Readers who are wisely securing the
parts as issued of the beautiful Forest
City series of Worlds Fair Art Port
tolios highly appreciate the fact that
they are getting them practically free;
the only charge being the cost of hand
ling, wrapping, addressing and mail
ing.
AS a rule, distributions of books and
pictures which are thus free or prac-
tically so are looked upon with sus-
picion by people who are of a care
full turn Of mind, and, frequently, not
without reason.
1t has often been found that the book
or picture so highly lauded was of little
value, by reason of blemishes or defects
discovered only after close inspection
A good book or a good picture, as we
all know is well worth having; they
afford mental and visual food, without
which life would be a waste
But damaged or badly printed book,
or Indifferent, imperfect picture is
worse than nothing; for it is a constant
offense against good taste.
1t is a wise precaution therefore, to
inspect these, so-called, free offerings
to ascertain if they are not too cheap
to be worth shelf room.
Readers have evidently done this in
the case of Forest city" series; ait any
rate the distribution is taking on I'M
expected proportions and the popularity
of the Portfolios is increasing from day
to day.
At the outset, readers were assured
that no more beautiful complete in
teresting and instructive popular SOU
venir and record of the great EXPOSE
ton at st. Louis could be secured.
1t indeed constitutes a complete pic
torial and descriptive history, not only
for the millions who will see the Fair,
but for the thousands who will not be
so fortunate as to attend
Announcements regarding the distri-
button are printed at frequent intervals
and readers are earnestly requested TO
read them, so they may form an ade-
quate idea of what they are to receive;
or, better still clip out one of the little
coupons and send for Part l of the
Portfolios, with ten cents to cover cost
of handling wrapping, addressing
mailing, etc Any part issued will be
promptly forwarded on receipt of a
coupon and ten cents coin or stamps.

BY A SCORE OF 2 TO 1 AFTER A
BRILLIANT MATCH.

Baseball in Honolulu touched the high
water mark on Saturday when in the
first game the Honolulus defeated the
Kamehamehas by the score of two to
one after a brilliant contest. The Rams
scored their one run in the seventh and
