I'm my opinion Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy is the best made for
colds" says Mrs. Cora Walker. of Por-
terviile. California. There is no donbt
about Its being the best. No other Will
cure a cold SO quickly. No other is
80 sure a preventative of pneumonia.
No other Is SO safe and pleasant to
take. These are good reasons why It
should be preferred to any other. The
fact Is few people are satisfied with
any other after once using this reme-

Y]UNG HOTEL THIEF
At LAST CAPTURED

Some light was thrown upon the
Young Hotel burglaries which have
been battling the detectives ror some
months. by the arrest of All ChOy, ali
as All Sing who cooked q the hotel for
nine months and was room boy for
Manager Lake. A few weeks go ne
was discharged and went TO wCla for
VIM. Brash on Emma street. Yester-
day he took $45 from one of Mr. .,rash's
coats and was captured b. Detective
Flint. A great pile Of silverw;tre. silk
handkerchiefs and other articles were
found among his things and many Of
them were positively Unidentified by Mr.,
Lake as having been stolen from the
hotel A note book with the name Of
Mrs. Judge Galbraith was found and
it is thought that he is the man who
took a watch belonging to Judge Gal
brsith. together with other articles. Al
Choy admitted the theft OF the arti-
cles found though at first he denied il.
He denies further stealings.

A food of light poured from the up
per windows OF the DisDensary building
last night Silhouetted against the light
was the n1otionless form of a policeman.
Within that room the chemists were at
ten,ptines 10 determine the exact cause
of the death of Mrs. Jane Lathrop STAN
ford b,.t not a word concerning the re-
suits of their Investigations was &uoWed
to escape the walls of the building.
Rumors of all sorts flew about town all
day yesterday and last night. The tele-
nhones at the police station and the
newspaper offices nearly jingled them
selves out of order with the queries OF
people who had heard fresh rdnofs.
All these reports were dismissed in a
word by High Sheriff Henry.
THE chemists are not through with
their Investigations he said last night,
.and nothing will be known definitely
until they report to me. They promised
fndL report III NiAIthS chb
possibIe moment and said that 1t would
probably be ready in the morning Un-
+iI that report is made and we are sure
of the exact cause of Mrs. Stanfords S
death it is folly to try and cook up
lot of theories
Although the first examination of the
powder taken from the bottle marked
bicarbonate of soda strengthened the
Yoisoning theory, it was determined that
,,otbing definite should be reported until
the most searching tests known be
made in order that there be no shadow
of a doubt as to the presence of strych-
nine in the medicine. The Territorial
analyst. Mr.. Duncan. assisted by Dr.
Sborey. the chemist of the experiment
station. were engaged upon these tests
Yesterday. The doctors are also at
work on the various organs which were
removed at the autopsy. A most search
ing examination of these is being made
and no stone will be left unturned that
the cause of death may be determined
to an absolute certainty

last night. and unless the nomination
of Lindsay. is sent TO the Senate today,
the second judgeship of the First Cir
cult will be vacant. For there seems TO
be a practical unanin1ity of legal sentf-
ment that Gear ceases to be Judge as
soon as his term expires, not holding,
as some other officials do, until his sue
cessor is elected and qualified.
1t IS. of course, possible that Presf-
dent Roosevelt Will send in the name
of Lindsay at once. and that the nOmi-
nation will be hurried along in the Sen
ate to the confirmation stage. But there
is no real necessity for doing this. The
Senate will adjourn at midnight on Sat
urday. the life of the present Congress
expiring on that date. Unless the Pres
ident calls an extra session. and he has
so far given no decided intimation of
any such purpose, Congress Will not
meet again until the first Monday In
December. It is. however. perfectly
practicable for the President to make
n recess appointment. and AIr. Roose-
Welt may prefer that course to taking

1t develops now that it never was the
intention of Judge Gear to come back
TO Honolulu to live. although he may
have intended to return when he went
away. At all events. he would have
come back for a little time if things
had gone his way in the matter of the
reappointment TO the Circuit bench.
Mrs. Judge Gear. conversing with
friend on the mainland while the mat
ter of the Judges desire for reappoint-
,nent was pending. said as much as this:
The Judge does not want to go pach
70 Honolulu to live" the lady said.
"Ha would not live there. And If he IS
reappointed. he Will only sit on the
bench eighteen days. at the END OF
which time he viii resign But ne
wants 10 be reappointed, because ne
wants To have his course vindicated-

Al MOST FIND
THE AFRICAN
Changes Strangely
in New County
Bill.

One of the tribe of Africans that has
been scented in the new County Act
drawn by the Commission was almost
uncovered at the meeting of the Coun-
ty Act Joint Committee last night-al-
most, but not quite.
The point had arisen on the duties and
powers of tax collectors and assessors,
when some of the committee men be-
gan to discover that there had been
some very material -;Langes made in
the bill since it had come into the e'hands
of the committee. There were words.
and in some cases lines, era sed, and
other words put in their places. The
changes We're read, first. by Chairman
Holstein who suggested that words be
stricken out, and other words put in.
Who made those changes ?" asked
Rice of Kauai What does this mean,
anyway"
L would like to know" said Carl
Smith of Hilo, what the Chairman is
reading from. There are no such words
in this printed copy
oh" answered Chairman Holstein,
L am reading from the typewriter
copy"
We'll, who made those changes p"
asked Smith.
They We're made by member of the
Commission, replied the Chairman.
Il understand exactly what you
in hn
present at the hearing. Il made the
changes. to conform to the provisions
OF a bill which was drawn up by Sena-
tor Achi and myself
This is the bill that was reported
from the Senate Printing Committee
yesterday, and referred to the Ways
and Means Committee-the bill to fl
nance the proposed counties under the
act.
by what authority did you make
them 2' asked Smith.
You forget" replied Stewart, that
agreed that Mr.. Cooper and myself We're
to make certain minor changes in the
interest of uniformity.
And did you consult Mr.. Cooper with
reference to these changes2"
We'll, in a general way. And 1 in
tend to see him again tomorrow
Stewart was inclined TO grow argu-
mentative, but received rather scant in
diligence. Mr.. Smith saying, briefly: Il
do not care to argue the matter with
you. You are a Commissioner, and
your duties with reference to this bill
have cea sed.''
And then the gentleman from Hilo
addressed the chair, going somewhat
at length into the very serious matter
Of changes made in a legislative bill by
anybody on the outside after il had been
given into the hands of a committee.
When it comes to a question of the
payment of taxes" said Mr. Smith, lit
strikes me that it is more than a mere
matter of conformity"
The committeeman We're on hot trail
but there was hardly enough charged
or admitted on either side to disclose
the joker thoroughly. Maybe the Coun-
ty Act hearings will get a little more
interest, however, after this. The COM
mittee agreed 10 leave the matter of
fixing salaries of county officers to the
representative of the several counties,
who are TO report 10 the meeting to-
night
