miles. OF course some of these are only

miles, about equal to the North Attain

can read and write his own language.
The population is 100000. There are

coal stands as one of it's chief products,
the output is over 100000 tons. In tex
tile goods there has been a great in
crease, the output amounting to 1885,
900, 900.
As a progressive country Japan is far
ahead of Russia. The Japanese have
adapted themselves to progressive
methods, while the Russians are if any
thing retrograde, Japan's credit is bet
ter than that of Russia and with her
continued success in the present war,
the progress of Japan is fairly assured.

The recent conviction of Matsutaro
Moritaro of the murder of young c.
H. Glennan on Kauai is one of the
most efficient pieces of work ever done
by the authorities in these islands. The
murder of Glennan was one of the
most atrOcious affairs of the kind ever
committed. The affair was for a
time shrouded in the most complete
mystery there seemed to be no chance
of bringing the perpetrators to justice.
The Kauai police incarcerated a num-
Der Of Japanese but the murderer was
captured by the Honolulu officers. The
credit for the successful outcome of
the case lies of course, with Chester
Doyle, the official japanese Interpreter
OF the local courts. Doyle went to
Kauai shortly after the commission of
the crime and through his keenness
and sagaclty succeeded in securing in

1t is stated that reductions in income
of the Bishop Museum has made neces-
sary reduction Of the working force Of
the institution. Outside of the trustees
of the institution, among those who are
tntereBtedin it, and try to keep in touch
with its work, the opinion prevails very
extensively, that changes are made in
the staff very largely on the within or
caprice of the director whose jealousy
of other persons connected with the in
stitution receiving any credit for work
done is a matter of common belief.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1904-04-14

formation that led to the conviction of
the murderer. Doyle through his in
innate acquaintance with the Japanese
language overheard a conversation of
certain japanese which furnished him
with the basis on which to work to
unravel the mystery. Within few
days after Doyle had established the
theory on which he decided to work,
he had succeeded in securing a com
plete confession from the murderer and
establishing such a positive case a.
gainst the man, that conviction was
the only logical outcome of the affair.

President Crabbe having returned,
speaking from the floor, said the Leg
islature had no right, under the Or
ganic Act, to appoint a commission or
any board of a public character.
Mr.. Isenberg-"That is the best argu-
ment we have had vet"
Mr.. Dickey-"The very best argu-
ment."
The Organic Acts provision relates to
boards Of a public character created

a commission organized and appointed

standing committe of the House or

Matters are not in a pleasant posi-

A rumor comes that a Russian at
tack upon the Japanese lines upon the
Yalu has been repulsed. This would
mean, presumably that the Russians
had at last taken the offensive. It
does not look as if the Japanese were
going to be swept out of Korea and
the treaty signed in Toxic as General
Kuropatkin thought would be the case.

FRESNO. Oct. S.-Pretty Miss Ora
Mcdowell, the 16-year-old daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. George Mcdowell Of
this city, disappeared about week
ago. About the same time Charles L.
Lane, a man OF family, having a
wife and FIVE children, also disap-
peared. It was said that they had
eIoped, but the parents of the girl
were 10th to place credence in what
they termed silly rumor.
Now comes word from a reliable
source that the couple did elope and
from here went to Seattle. The lit
tie girls parents are heart broken
over her rash step and threaten to
bring an action for abduction against
Lane.
Lane is d contractor and was in
good circumstances. His wife is at a
loss to know why he deserted her.
The man knew Ora well. but no one
noticed anything more than friendly
relations between the two. The girls
father stands we'll in the civil service
