Her Jewels STOLEN.

New York, Dec. 6,--Jewels valued al
$4,000 are reported to have been
stolen from The apartments Of J. X.
Weiner a wealthy merchant, IN Man
haitian Square near Seventy-seventh
street The jewels were the property
OF Mrs. Weiner and her daughter.
They were left IN a secret repository
while the family were driving and
were not missed Tor some hours.
The apartment apparently had been
entered by the use OF duplicate KEYS
as there were no signs OF the burglary
except about the Jewel casket which
had been forced open. City detectives
who have searched the pawnshops
nave thus far found no clew to the
u,eves or the missing gems They
attribute the robbery TO a gang Of
sneak thieves who have recently made

Licensing
OF THE CLUBS
HIGH SHERIFF HENRY CITES
THE CASE OF THE UNION LEA
CUE CLUB.

High Sheriff Henry discovered a pre-
cedent for the licensing of private clubs
that supply liquor to members in the
columns of a San Francisco paper to-
day and drew the attention of the Gov
ernor to it. The article stated that
the Union League Club of San Fran
cisco had had to take out retail IL
cense and a number of other clubs
which are similarly licensed were nam
ed.
1t happens that the Union League
until very recently occupied quarters
on the New Montgomery street side
of the Palace hotel. The club was then
supplied with liquors from the Palace
though under a separate bar Of its own
Now that the organization has moved
to ne wquarters it has taken out its
own license.
While the principle involved here is
the same as i'm San Francisco, the fact
that a license i'm San Francisco costs
only $S4 a year may be said TO bear a
good deal on the question.

.HILO MEN AFTER
THE POST OFFICE
SEVERAL CANDIDATES ARE Az
TER THE POSITION OF POST
MASTER MADEIRA.

HILO, Nov. 25.-Rumors are rife over
the prospective change in the post office
at Hilo. Rev. S. L. Desha brought the
news from Honolulu that owing to the
promotion of Postmaster Madeira,
there would be a vacancy. He alleges
that the position was rendered to his
brother, George L. Desha, who is an
employee of the Honolulu post office.
In response to an inquiry, Postmaster
Madeira says he has received no official
notification of his promotion to an in
spectorship, and declares that he has
not resigned his office. No one can be
appointed as long as Madeira holds
his commission.
However, the woods are full of candi-
dates. Rev. Desha, is pulling for his
nephewin-law, Charles Siemsen. Two
members of the Lyman family, Nor
man and Henry, are spoken of. w. H..
Beers has been favorably mentioned as
a satisfactory successor to the office
There does not appear to be any white
candidates for the place, as the billet
is regarded as a political plum to be
given the Young Mems Republican
Club.

GRAND JURY AND

JUDGE PARSONS ON THE FAILURE
OF THE NEW JURY LAW IN
HILO.

HILO, November 25.-The business of
the Fourth Circuit Court was delayed
owing to the fact that many of the
jury panel were disqualified by reason
of absence, exemption or otherwise.
When the roll was called by clerk
Quincy, not enough jurors answered to
their names to make up a grand jury.
Judge Parsons ordered a new vennire
to issue and adjournment until Friday.
Subsequently when it was found that
thirteen grand jurors, the minimum
provided by law, had been summoned,
the court vacated the order for new
venire.. Instead Of twenty-three MEM
bers, the grand jury therefore consists
of thirteen jurors, as follows w. S.
