They were ascending the steps at the

litical and personal ENHANCEMENT to
give Kent one more opportunity to
hear his word of negative comfort

any good reason?"

There was the excellent reason

"She knows nothing at all. l was

"The more fool you," said Loring,
bluntly. "You call yourself lawyer,

the first principles of common justice,
which is that woman has some rights
which even a besotted lover is bound

Kents smile was a fair measure Of
his unhopeful mood.
You can't well lose what you have
never had. I'm not such an ass as to
believe that she cared greatly"

INFORMATION

Reception in
City,

II have met with a very favorable
reception in your business community
said w A. Mears, special representa-
tive of the. Portland Chamber of Com
MERGE yesterday. Il have been listened
to and have listened to them with
great deal of interest and am piling up
data which our business men in Port
land Oregon want
Mr. Mears has also been visited by
several Honolulu men and he has put
them in the way of establishing re-
ciprocal trade relations. One man who
has koa, or Hawaiian mahogany, TO
dispose of. learned that in Portland
there are three big furniture manu-
featuring concerns and branch of the
largest furniture factory in the United
States is there. Portland disposes
of a tremendous lot of furniture every
year, San Francisco, from which place
furniture is shipped to Honolulu, being
one of its best customers. There is
one opportunity opened up to island
products.
Then a pineapple man was put in the
way of working up considerable bust
ness in Portland and Whereabouts. An
other man who has honey for sale can
find market and a ready one there.
These are but samples of the way Mr..
Mears is dispensing information and
getting island data in exchange.
Next Tuesday he goes to Hilo, return
ing the following SATURDAY.
At an early date there will be a joint
meeting of the Chamber of Commerce
and the Merchants Association which
Mr.. Mears win address. He will be
armed with data to answer questions.

with it, but, seeing that the noise had
aroused the camp and men were run
ming to succor, dropped the rock
within two feet of the victims head.
The assailants then ran to the road,
where they got into an express wagon
and drove away.
J. H. Wilson, who has his camp at
the same place, was aroused by the
noise and at first thought that it was
a row among his Porto Ricans. as he
heard the voice of his Porto Rfcan
luna, and therefore went out to pacify
them. He arrived just as the Japa-
nese were driving off. Securing a Ian
tern. he went down to the road and
there found that a wagon arriving
from the Waimea direction had turn
ed there and driven back over the
same road. He therefore at once teIe-
phoned Deputy Sheriff Crowell to
watch out for the men, with the result
that, when they arrived at the Wal
Hea bridge, they found the police there
ready to convey them to jail. There
two of the men at once confessed.
Two Porto Ricans and two Hawai-
ians had witnessed the affair from the
distance and it was they who had
raised the alarm which scared the as
arrival of the express wagon with a
lot of men, without of course. sus-
peeting their intention.
The victim has a number of wounds
in the head and only the fact that ne
warded the blows to some extent with
his arms saved him from having it
crushed to a jelly. His arms and legs
are so swollen and lacerated that the
doctor declares that he can not be
moved for eight or ten days The per
petrators will be held to await trial a
