FRENCHMEN dine
At M0ANA HOTEL

A few friends, faithful children of ia
Belle France" celebrated the glorious
anniversary of the fall of the Bastille,
in true French style, at the Moana
Hotel Friday evening. Monsieur JUS
tin Chosson, chef of the popular hos
telry, was the host, and he outdid
himself for the occasion. Words of
praise were not spared to congratulate
and thank him for the splendid manner
in which he treated his guests. The
table was beautifully decorated in
blue, red and white, and each guest
wore ia cocarde tricolore." A nice
French flag of beautiful silk was be-
fore each plate and was taken as a
souvenir by the fortunate ones, as was
also the menu, card beautifully
painted with French, American and
Hawaiian flags entwined and view
of Diamond Head. Toasts We're made

dents Loubet and Roosevelt, and to the
dear beloved parents and friends left
at home. The affair will long be re-
membered by all those who attended

Attorney Heney occupied the morning
and the early part az the afternoon In
n powerful presentation Of the evil
dcnce on which the prosecution relied
for conviction. In marked contrast
10 the appeals made by the defendant .
counsel TO the sympathy of the jurors,
Hcney addressed himself strictly to
the facts as shown by the evidence.
Logically, tersely and with vehe-
mence that bespoke absolute conviction
of the defendants guilt, be rehearsed
the proofs of the prosecution. The
specific charge was that Senator Nit
chell appeared before the State De-
partment TO expedite land claims for
which his partners had received fees.
Heney concluded his argument at
2:35 clock ths afternoon and Judge
de Haven Immediately delivered the
instructions to the jury.
The gist of the statute under which
the Indictment was brought, the court
held, was the receiving of money by
the defendant for services rendered.
The mere rendering of services was not
sufficient to indict, for it was not UNI
lawful, but if he had knowledge at the
time he received the checks from
Tanner that they were in part made
up of the money paid by Kribs and if
he had done the work before the de-
partment expecting compensation, then
he was guilty under the indictment.
This fact was for the jury to decide.
The Judge cautioned the jury
against placing too much credence in
circumstantial and collateral evidence,
though at the same time telling them
that such evidence should be given all
the weight deemed worthy by the jury.
The fact that the defendant had not
testified was not to be taken against
him, for it was his privilege not his
duty to testify.

THE CONVICTION OF
SENATOR MITCHELL

PORTLAND, Ore, July 3.-"We,
the jury in the case of the United
States against John H. Mitchell, find
the defendant guilty as charged in the
indictment, and recommend him to the
mercy of the court for leniency.
"G. STEINER, Foreman.
With the reading of this verdict at
II O'Clock tonight closed the greatest
trial in the history of Oregon. With
exultant patriots firing bombs in the
streets outside, United States
Senator, for years the Republican boss
Of the State, whose SEVENTEEN birth
day occurred on the opening day of
the trial two weeks ago, heard him
self convicted of aiding to defraud the
United States. 1t was a most dra-
matte ending of the great land fraud
Investigations.
The jury had been out ever since 8
o'clock this afternoon. At 1890 they
called for writing materials and it was
known that the end was near. Judge
de Haven had held himself in readiness
up to IL o'clock, and he was sent for.
As soon as the jurors appeared after
their long vigil, the packed, hushed
throng in the little room knew the
Purport of the verdict, for every man
looked carefully at the Judge, never
casting an eye at the old man on the
bench before them, who, stroking his
long gray beard with nervous fingers,
awaited his fate.
Not a muscle of the Judges face
moved as he read the sealed verdict
and handed it to the clerk to be an
nounced. Senator Mitchell IS shoulder:

THE WORRIED WOMEN. a

They say men must work and
women must weep; but alas, in
this too busy world women often
have to work and weep at the
same time. Their holidays are
too few and their work heavy
and monotonous. 1t makes them
nervous and irritable. The de-
pressed and worried woman loses
her appetite and grows thin and
feeble. Once in a while she has
spells of palpitation and has to
lie up for day or two. If some
disease like influenza or malarial
fever happens to prevail she is
almost certain to have an attack
of it, and that often paves the
way for chronic troubles of the
