tual murder of Swedish domestic in
the home of wealthy man in Cam
bridge more than five years ago. She
was buried secretly, without death Ger,
tificate or inquest. In the opinion OF
DR.. Powell Attorney Streed was mur.
dered because Streed knew the truth
behind the woman's death Streed

broken up end the guilty persons
shielded, it is alleged, by an infiuen

Chicago, Oct. At has been de-
cided by the physicians in attendance
upon President Harper Of the Uni

of heroic character. 1t is admitted
that there is practically no chance Of
saving his life unless the cancer
which is killing him can be checked by
the removal Of portion of the large
intestine. 1t is proposed by the sur
geons to make an examination in a

ever, admitted that the chances are
greatly against the permanent relief
of the patient if the operation is per-
formed.

LORRAINE FOR FRANCE.

NEW YORK, November IA ca
BILE to the Journal from Hamburg says:
Considerable discussion in diplomatic
and political circles has been aroused
by the serious publication in the Ham
burger Correspondent, well known for
its close relations with the imperial
chancellory at Berlin, of a proposition
involving the exchange of the province
of Lorraine with France for cession to
Germany of Dahomey and the Gamer
DON Hinterland
The article, which is generally be-
lieved to be inspired, proposes the alb
rogation of the treaty of Frankfort,
concluded after the Franco-Prussian
War of 1870. The new treaty is pro-
posed between the two old national
foes to be based on the recession of
Lorraine to France in consideration
of the addition of French possessions
IN Africa to Emperor William 8 pet
scheme of a German African empire.
1t is known that the Emperor has long
cast covetous eyes upon the CAMERON
Hinterland.
Lorraine has resisted Communication
more than any other of the provinces
allied to the German empire. It's re-
cession to France would get rid of
what Germany does not want for the
acquisition of that which it desires.

NEW YORK UNDEFENDED.

NEW YORK, Nov. 10.-In the course
of an interview with Prince Louis of
Battenberg, about the defenses of New
York, the Prince said:
Any war would be disastrous to
New York-more disastrous to New
York than any other lily in the world.
This is Impressed upon me by the
tremendous amount of hustle and traffic
that YOU see as you come up the har-
Dor. What New York wants above all
things is peace. The two combined
fleets in New York harbor could, I
think, reduce New York 10 atoms in
the time it takes my cook to fry an
cmelette."
He said that this possibility of a be-
sieging feet destroying New York was
one of the features of his present visit
that had interested him most.
Describing his impressions of Ameri-
cans, Prince Louis said: II should say
that District Attorney William T.
Jeromes success is clearly explained
in his charming personality and ear

0 NEIL TO APPEAR
IN TIE FORENOON

1t has been decided to set the time
for the Nance O'Neil matinee at 1920
o. clock in the morning, instead of at
noon, as previously announced. This
on account of the uncertain hour of the
sailing of the Sonoma.
Also it will be more convenient for
the audience as the performance will
be over by one o'clock and the play
goers will be enabled to have their
lunch at near the usual time.
The Sonoma is somewhat foul this
trip and in order to make time to San
Francisco so as to connect with the
overland mail the boat will undoubt
edly pull out at two. A matinee given
at noon, therefore, would not finish in
time for the players to board the
steamer.
No part of the play will be cut and
the management desires to produce 1t
in the same manner as in Boston and
Australia, so it will require some time
to transfer scenery to the boat after
the performance. The decision of set
ting the hour at 1920 in the morning
will meet with favor on all sides and
avoid any chance of cutting the play
snort or not giving IL at all, IN Wn1cn
latter case the ticket money would have
to be returned to purchasers. The
show, therefore, will begin at 1880 a.
m, Tuesday morning.
Speaking of Nance O'Neil recently
the Boston Sunday Herald had the fol-
lowing to say:
Miss Nance O'Neil's matinees at
the fremont continue to be among the
most distinct attractions for society as
well as the larger public, and the young
tragedienne' drawing power and ex-
ceptional talents are being discussed
everywhere. Her personality is every
whit as charming as her genius. In
deed, she is even more magnetic in |
private than when seen from the stage. /
She has met some of the very best .peo- I
pie socially, but has so little time to !
herself, as rehearsals are called every
morning, that she has been unable to .
accept most of the invitations that are
continually coming to her. Her mod
esty and absolute naturalness are as
charming as they are rare. Miss
o Neil has apparently not been one
atom spoiled by the wonderful hold she
has gained upon the Boston public for
her manner is as simple and genuine as
a child -

ceiving the notice, and knew not how
to act. Finally she went to the mayor
OF the commune in the hope that he
would get her out of her dilemma But
the mayor advised her to join the reg1-
ment.
Mile. Bernard took the mayor s adj
vice and went TO the railway station,
where a ticket at quarter fare was
handed to her. At Brive, where the
regiment she had to join was stationed,
the ticket Inspector wanted her to pay
full fare. But she declined ard as
proof of her assertion that she was in
reality conscript, produced the notice
summoning her to join the regiment.
When she presented herself at the
barracks the sergeant on guard would
not receive her as a conscript. The
matter had to come before the military
authorities for decision. Ultimately
the girl conscript was sent to the judi
cial authorities, who were charged to
rectify her baptismal certificate. This
done, Mile. Bernard returned to her
home, where banquet was given in
her honor.

DAVID DOUGLAS
and HIS GRAVE

Editor Advertisers: With reference
the scientist, and the question as to
whether his grave is marked or not, I
most cheerfully accept the correction
of "Another Kamaaina.' What ap-
peared on this particular part of the
subject in my previous communication
was based partly on the statement
made in 1S41 by. Mr.. Edmund Rogers
1ong since deceased), the printer for
the American Mission and partly from
similar statements made by others in
subsequent years. The explanation of
the seeming discrepancy between these
statements and those of "Another
Kamaaina,' is probably that at some
time after the original interment in the
west corner of the general cemetery
the remains We're removed to the Mis-
sion Plot where they now lie and so
long time may have elapsed before
the arrival of the stone as to give the
impression that the grave was I'M
marked, as the writer certainly be-
lieved it still to be, never having heard
anything to the contrary until the pres
ent time. In those early days news
Travelled slowly and it may have been
a whole year before Mr. Douglas
mother in Scotland heard of her son s
death and possibly several more before
the stone she sent reached Honolulu
Having always taken great interest
in the story of Mr.. Douglas and his
tragic death and having always re-
GREETED that his grave was, as I sup
posed, unmarked, L am sincerely glad
to learn that this was a mistake and
that his grave really is marked with a
suitable stone erected to his memory.

JUDGE BATCH ON
FORMER GOVERNMENT

Editor Advertiser: I was very much
interested in an article in this morn
ing's Advertiser headed Hatch Takes
Issue With Rev Kincaid." Mr.. Hatch
gives a clear and sensible reason for
the exodus of white mechanics, but I
decidedly disagree with him on one
point. He says as follows: 1.-The boom,
if it may be SO called, resulted from the
fact that the residents of Hawaii who
had been for years struggling against
bad government in almost every vicious
form, gave themselves over to joy at
the hosting of the Stars and Stripes,
etc" Before annexation we were visit
ed by a prominent American states
man q can not recall his name at pres
ent). On his return to the mainland
he said, in a speech to the American
people, that we (Hawaiians) had the
tbest government on the face OF the
earth Does Mr.. Hatch mean to say
that the Provisional Government and
later the Republic of Hawaii, under
President Dole (whom he himself serv-
ed as representative at Washington,
was a bad and in every way a vicious
government? If so, he is certainly
casting a stigma on his own party and
some good men who served that gov
eminent M.
Judge Hatch probably referred to the
years of corrupt and weak Royal gov
eminent a return to which had been
made impossible by annexation. AS
Judge Hatch was part of the govern
ments of the p. G.. and the Republic,
and a mainstay of their policies from
first to last, he could not have referred
to them in the scathing terms which
