All SANG WAS
A SLICK ONE

All Sang, the Chinaman who was
locked up Tuesday night in order that
the police might investigate the char
acter of some alleged crooked trans
actions confessed yesterday morning
and he viii have a chance to answer to
a charge of obtaining money under
false pretenses. The Chinaman was
arrested by Detective Arthur McDuffie
and the particular swindle that caused
his arrest was perpetrated on Mrs. C.
H. Dickey.
The willy All Sang rented a house on
Nuuanu Avenue some time ago for his
rich father whom he represented as
coming from China. In order to relieve
temporary financial embarra ssment
he borrowed $50 from Mrs. Dickey Civ
ing as security a gold filled watch
which had the appearance of a solid
one. After the house went empty for
some time Mrs. Dickey became suspi-
cious and notified the police with the
result that the rich father was found
to be a myth. The police say that the
man has been guilty of similar swim
dies before and has served time in the
penitentiary.

| finally resulted in the establishment of
the Pacific Commercial Advertiser;
named after the we'll known New York
Advertiser, with which the writer had
been connected. The first number was
issued July ?, 1856, from new types,
new press, a new building and in short

A MAN OF AFFAIRS.
While Mr. Whitney was in charge of
the government printing works on his
first return TO Hawaii he undertook the
establishment OF the Hawaiian postal
system and it was under his regime that
Mr.. Whitney was the first Postmaster
General OF Hawaii, holding office from
1880 to 1856. The stamps he issued dur
ing that time now command fabulous
prices as but few of them are in ex-
istence At later periods Mr.. Whitney
also held the post of Postmaster Gen
eral and during the period from 1883
TO 1886 he established the first street
letter boxes here. After he went cut
OF office, Charles T. Gulick. under the
new ministry, removed all OF these
letter boxes and had them stored in a
government. warehouse until Postmaster
Dat discovered them in 1000 and had
them again placed about the streets
Mr.. Whitney was a member of the
Royal Privy Council OF State for more
than twenty years and also served in
the Legislature, during his entire career
taking an active part in shaping the DO

On one occasion Mr. Whitney had a
narrow escape from death. 1t was at
the outcome of the Civil War in the
United States and Mr. Whitney at once
announced himself as in favor. of Lin
coins policy against the Confederacy
The American minister here was a
southerner, a Judge Borden, and one day
he visited Mr. Whitney's office and de-
manded that he stop publishing editor
ials in support of the Union. Mr.. Whit
ney told the minister that he did not
propose to be dictated to by anyone, at
which the minister became very angry
Borden drew long bowie-knife Whit
ney jumped to his feet, seized a chair
and pushed Borden against the wall with
it. At the noise of the scuffle Judge
Austin, who had offices below, rushed
to Mr.. Whitney's aid and disarmed
Borden. A great crowd collected
around the Office when news of the
affair got on the street. but Borden was
allowed to depart unmolested, although
there were threats of doing him violence
for the paper was always popular on the
streets of the town and among the
Yankee whalers Mr.. Borden was dis
tinctly unpopular The American gov

STORIES OF EARLY HONOLULU
1T is just fifty years since the writer
arrived here from San Francisco. :"
wrote Mr.. Whitney on Jan. I, 1000, ''in
company with Gorham D. Gilman, of
Boston, DR. Robinson George Hardy of
Hawaii, and several other fellow pas
sengers. AS we had left that port with
a forest OF shipping in the bay, all were
surprised to find another similar forest
here, comprising the large feet of
whaleships, which at that time found
the Arctic and Okhotsk seas nearly as
profitable as were the gold placers Of
California There were not far from

did in those prosperous years, and at
one time over one hundred vessels were
in port, packed as closely together as
was possible. 1t was difficult even for
boats to steer among the fleet, or at
night 10 find the vessels that they belong

ORIGIN OF THE ADVERTISER.
Concerning the origin of the Adver-
tiser, Mr.. Whitney wrote three years
ago: In 1880 the Polynesian-a week

principal paper here, though there were
several other small weekly and monthly
papers issued, the only one among them
that has survived 10 this date being

WANT TO MARRY HER.
Mary McCann, Girl Heroine of New

One Thousand Proposals.

New York, July 21.-Mary Mccain,
the 17-year-old girl who, although only
three days out of the hospital at North
Brothers island, where she had been
i'll with scarlet fever, saved six persons
from drowning after they had jumped
from the burning steamer General Slo-
cum, has appealed to the postal au-
thorities on North Brothers island to
help her with the enormous mail which
arrives for her each morning. Since
the testimony at the coroner's inquest
established the fact that Miss Mccain
was a heroine, she has received more
than 1000 letters containing an offer
of marriage. There are offers from
young men and old men, from bach
elors and widowers. The girl refuses
to consider the sentimentalists, how
ever and declares she will receive no
more mail unless the offers cease.
