LIFE INSURANCE.

There is no question that life insur-
ance is a good thing; the difficulty lies
i nmaking it as good a thing for the
policy-holder as for the director.-The
Washington Star.
1t looks to us as though the life-in-
surance agent We're the innocent by
stander in this investigation. Soliciting
business at this time must be about
as pleasant a job as carrying an ele.
plant up sixteen flights of stairs.-The
Chicago News.
Now that the Mutual Life has de-.
cided to investigate itself, we may soon
have an impartial and disinterested
showing as to what the facts really are
instead of the onesided and prejudiced
findings of the State.-The Kansas City
Journal.
Cunliff, the express robber, says it is
difficult for man to be honest on a
salary of $65 a month. The life-in-
surance Investigations indicate that it
is difficult for some men to be honest
on a salary of $65 an hour,-The Wash
ingtOn Post.
Now that President McCurdy has ap-
pointed a committee of three directors
to investigate its affairs we may con-
fdently expect to be surprised almost
any day when we find out what a really
good company the Mutual is,-The De-
troit Free Press.

IN POLICE TOLLS
BILL HUIHUI LOCKED UP ON SUS-
PICION BY POLICE-WIGWAAI
SALOON ROBBED LAST NIGHT.

Bill Huihui, the x-prizefghter, is
locked up in the police station for Tn
Yestigation." A saloon, some bottles
of whiskey some money, a dog and
Bill are mixed up in rather a peculiar
way and the police are going to make
careful inquiry into the circum-
stances.
The Wigwam Saloon in Kakaako was
entered by some one about midnight
last night and robbed of four bottles
of whlskey and 81 in cash. Bill Hui
hui was seen by some boys in Kal1 llIo
coming from the direction of the sa-
Loom He had apparently some pack
ages under his arms: Sometime later
Bill reappeared and told the boys he
had sbout so cents about his clothes
and he would treat them. They said
he could not for the SELDOM was close I.
B!ll went to W. Reuter-, the mounted
officer on the beat and informed Reut-
er that he, Bill, had gone to the Wag-
wan Saloon to get a dog that had been
tied there and had discovered that the
saloon had been robbed. Reuter- took
Huihui into custody.

FROM THE COAST
MARSHAL SHINE BRINGS THREE
MEN WHO WE'RE INDICTED IN
HONOLULU.

United States Marshal Shine, of the
district of Northern California, arrived
here this morning on the S. S. China,
bringing with him three prisoners who
are wanted here on indictments charg-
ing them with attempting to pass coun-
terfett money. They are men who
We're on the transport Sherman when
she passed through here at the time
when District Attorney Breckons and
Marshal Hendry took half a dozen men
off on suspicion that they were con-
cerned in making or passing counter
feits.
The three men brought from San
Francisco are ]. Duffy, ], Rooney and
j. Shea. Investigations here after they
had left for the coast indicated that
they were concerned in the use of the
bad money, and cable was sent to
have them arrested. The Grand jury
here indicted them for attempting to
pass counterfeit money.
Deputy Marshal Winter went out to
meet the steamer this morning( and
had the men placed in Oahu Jail. They
had preliminary hearings in San Fran
cisco, and are here now for trial.

the quotations, which reached 20 11-16d.
per ounce in London and 645s cents in
New York for commercial bars. These
figures are notable, as they are tie
highest which have been recorded in
the silver markets here or aboard
since the year 1900, when the prices
touched 30 3-16d. and GA cents respect
lively. 1t would seem that the demand
from the East has been large and
steady of late and that the rise is due
mainly to this cause, being, in fact an
entirely legitimate movement. An in
teresting question has also arisen as to
whether the Mexican government will
not take advantage of the situation to
sell at least a part of its silver reserve
carried against note circulation and
thus provide a gold reserve"
All of which indicates that elections
may not always settle economic aues-
tions.

LAND
FRAUDS

Every all brings in fresh evidence Of
the gigantic land frauds which have
been committed by Puter, Mckinley
and their accomplices. A local bank
took up to the clerk Of the land board,
late yesterday afternoon, seven forged
certificates to land in the Deschutes
country. Each certificate is for 800
acres, and the payments have been made
on them by the Muller bank, Of Daven.

seeing the notices Of the land frauds In

They were all forgeries, and were &C
