HUNG FROM
MANGO LIMB
Murderous Jap Takes
His Own
Life.

A terrible tragedy took place early
yesterday morning on Wyllie street,
two Japanese, man and woman. be-
ing the principals. The woman lies in
the Queens Hospital suffering from
cruel looking wounds about her head
and shoulders inflicted with a sharp axe
in the hands of L. Kato, whose body
was found afterward hanging from a
rope attached to the limb of mango
tree in the Hoffman premises on Wyllie
street.
The tragedy reveals the story of
japanese husband who came here from
San Francisco On the Ventura for the
purpose of taking his wife back to the
coast. Blind rage and jealousy are be-
lieved to have been the motive of
Kato when he welded the axe. That
he did not succeed in killing the woman
is almost unexplainable, for the axe,
of the Globe Axe pattern, was new and
woman's body, one severe wound being
in the left cheek the blow also break
ing her jaw. The other wound is in
the left shoulder.
Yoshi, the woman has been in the
employ of Mr.. Cooley of the Oahu Rail-
way Company, his residence being on
Wyllie street. The husband had writ
ten to her repeatedly to join him at
San Francisco, but evidently she paid
no attention, and it is thought she had
an attachment for a japanese here. AT
any rate Kato is said to have given no
notice of his arrival in the city, but

HILLS OF TINY GEMS.
The Sands of the Colorado Desert Are
OF Marvellous COmpo-
sitiOn,

The Colorado desert is level plain
of clay, relieved here and there by hills
of sand. 1t was formerly the bottom
of a great shallow lake, the rocky
banks of which still remain in the
shape of stony cliffs that bear the an
cient water-marks upon them. 1t is an
arid wonderland. says the Philadelphia
Saturday Evening Post.
The hills described are not station
airy, but travel constantly, though
slowly, Journeying over the plain as
the winds direct. The sand of which
they are composed is not of the ordi-
nary kind, but of nature marvellous
Most of the grains are transparent,
others are translucent. while many
are of rainbow hues, being, in fact,
small gems of red carnelian, green
chrysolite, and vari-colored garnet
Seen beneath a microscope most of
them are perfect spheres, rounded and
polished by attrition with each other.
Composed of these strange materials,
the sand-hills look like great snow
drifts, with here and there a CLEAN of
color Continually they gle forth
rustling sound, as the tiny spheres are
shifted by the winds, rolling slowly
onward
The northern portion of the desert
is paved with the most wonderful peb-
bles in the world, in many parts so ex-
quisitely laid as to defy successful
imitation by the most skilled worker
in mosaic flooring. These pebbles are
of porphyry, agate. carnelian. quartz
crystal. garnet. and other such beauti-
full materials. They are packed to-
gether SO that the surface composed
of them is like a floor, and they look
as if pressed into it with a roller.

ELLEFORD'S OPEN
TO STANDING ROOM

THE Play is the Thing" or at least
it was at the Orpheum last evening
both from an artistic and box office
stand point.
The Ellefords opened their fourth an
nual engagement in our city presenting
the beautiful Southern Romance 1.-The
Belle of Richmond" The company as
whole is the best that w j. Ellie
ford has ever brought to the island,
each and every member doing meri-
torious work. The play is one that
made an emphatic hit last year in
New York and the average theater
goers can readily understand why as it
contains all the necessary elements
that go toward making a successful
production, a forceful and interesting
story. beautiful costumes and pleasing
scenic accessories.
Among the old faces were those of
Pietro Sosso, who gave a mastery
performance of the role of Gerald Cor
don, Chas. Elder, who, as Col Lee. the
old kentuckian, gave a finished inter-
probation of difficult role and Myrtle
Selwyn was her own clever self in the
pleasing ingenue role of Winnifred
Mason. Her speciality received several
well merited encores. Miss Auda Due,
the new leading lady, has a fine stage
appearance and gave a pleasing per-
Torrance of Nellie Mason, the Belle.
George Hernandez. an old Honolulu
favorite, was in his element as Silas
Smart. Albert Fent, who was here last
with Katie Putnam, was very good in
the character of Judge Mason. Will
liam Marion in the role of the false
friend, William Osmond, played the
part in a manner that won him the dis
like of the audience. Grace Lamont
made an attractive Roslin Mason, An
ma Dodge's Aunt Betty was a neat
bit of character work, VIM. Daull made
the most of Charley Lee and Frank
Howes Nose, an old negro servant,
furnished a neat bit of the comedy
element. The company delighted the
large audience and the season bids /
fair to exceed all previous engage
ments. The same bill will be given
this afternoon and tonight.

A QUESTION OF AUTHORITY

gambling paraphernalia seized by King
in a raid the other day on some Shaw

Sheriff Grace who had I'm away
from home met his under sheriff en-
route to Shawnee TO carry out the or
der of the judge to consign to the
flames all the satanic and costly de-
vices Of sin which he had previously
captured, and King was ordered to re
turn home When he had reported to
the judge that he had failed in his mis-
sion by reason of the countermand of
the sheriff the court sent for the latter
and put him on the carpet. The sher-
4 explained that he wanted TO do the
cremating himself and was only wait
ing for the wind to go down In order
to start The holocaust Judge BurwelI
had reasons Of his own for not wanting
to entrust the sheriff with so trying a
spectacle and he went over the heads

TAE GOLDEN MEAN.

The press dispatches told the other
day the remarkable story Of a school
teacher who had been able to accum
late half a million dollars in so years
from a salary ranging from $1,000 to
$1,000 a year Professor Alpheus Du
Bois- that was the savers name-was
not connected with any Of the great
life insurance companies at that. The
a erage mind can scarcely see how It
is POSSIBLE to save so much. Three
thousand dollars a year. for so years,
aggregate $4,000. which is S35O,0O0
less than a half million of dollars. The
mathematical possibility OF the feat,
however. is easily proved by a refer
ence 20 the compound interest tables.
{ is the psychological phase of the ac.
accomplishment which is calculated to
astonish the average men--the grim
determination of the young man on less
than $1,000 a year TO die rich, aud the
wonder that after he had accumulated
q hundred thousand he stin kept on at
his comparatively small salary, prefer
iiog the safe and steady gains to the
excitement of taking chances.

OF its advent there were not more than

Light on Female Diseases.

What used to he called female diseases
by the medical profession Is now called
pelvic catarrh. IT has been found by
experience that catarrhal diseases Of the
pelvic organs are the cause of most
cases of feTpale diseases.
DR.. Hartman was among the fret Of
Americas greatest physicians to make
this discovery. For forty years he has
been treating disease peculiar to women
and long ago be reached the conclusion
that a woman entirely free from ca
tarrhal affection Of these organs would
not be subject TO female diseases. He,
therefore, began using Peruna for these
cases and found il so admirably adapted
10 their permanent cure that Peruna has
now become the most famous remedy
for female diseases ever known. Every
where the women arc using IL and pals
ing 1t. Peruna is not palliative sim
ply; it cures by removing the cause Of
female diseases.
Peruna builds mp the nerves and re-
stores the appetite and digestion.
Dr.. Hartman has probably cured more
womeu Of female ailments than any
other living physician. He makes these
cures simply by using and recommend
ing Peruna.
