Advertiser Bureau,

Selma, Dec. 2. F Last night a thief entered the store on the south side of Water Street in the St. James block, between Frank lin and Washington Streets. occupied by J. F. Doherty and J. P. Woods The store is rented Jointly by the two young men. The front part is used by Woods rear part is used by Doherty. who Is agent here for brewing company. One side of the front part of the store is partitioned off for an office and in this both of the men have desks and safes.
 The front doors of the store have no glass in them, the glass having been removed so as to allow plenty of air in the store to keep the perishable goods from spelling. There are a number of iron bars across the doors to prevent anyone from tampering with the locks. Above the door there is transom which was not fastened last night.
 The thief evidently had an accom- plice waiting on the outside for him. He made an effort to enter the store by the front door, but could not suc- ceed in doing so. Then he climbed up on the bars, opened the transom and entered the store. Finding Doherty's safe open he went through it.
 There was no monby in the safe, only deeds and insurance papers. These papers the thief took out and threw on the floor. When he found no cash, he turned to the other safe which he could not open. He then turned his attention to the goods in the front part of the store. He handed out three hams and a box of sausage. There was nothing else missing this morning when the place of business was opened.

asked why he asked for S.
- wanted five dollars" ne answered
with signs Of astonishment at such q
stupid question. BY further questions
Wilmington finally got the reason why
Jurick went to Bray and not to some
one else: What for should I go to
someone else when Bray owed me $50"
Did you have any conversation with
the Shipping Commissioner" was an
ether question. "T never had nothing
with him" Jurick replied.
Juror G. L. Wight wanted to know
what had been done with the money
and Jurick said he spent it. adding.
Moneys no good at sea-"
Four sailors who shipped on the Sta.-
buck were called and all testified to
having assigned allotment notes for S25
to Bray and to having received advan-
ces Of cash from him. They were charg-
ed $l.5O as a fee, or as interest, for the
taking up of the notes. The shipping

The Honolulu Chinese cadet corps is
called the Young Mans Mou Hook Ke

been under way for but a short time
there are already forty members enroll

connected with the reform movement.
Most of them are of Hawaiian birth,

young men who dress i'm the white
mans fashion, have eschewed queues
and are i'm every sense occidental rather

their hall on Nuuanu street they prac-

nightly, the japanese movements and

Naturally enough the members Of the
