ALL HOPE
ABANDONED
DEATH OF GEN. WILLIAM r.
SKATER NEAR AT HAND.
Veteran Soldier Making an Heroic but
Losing Struggle in His California
Home.

BAKERSFIELD, CAL, Nov. H.
His life hanging y thread and the
doctors having given up all hope
Maj. Gen. VIM. r. Shafter, u S. A., re.
tired, is making an heroic struggle
against death at the ranch of Capt.
W.. H. McKittrick, his son-in-law,
twenty miles from this city.
For six days past the veteran sol
der has been confined to his bed,
but not until Friday night was it
known to attending physicians that
acute pneumonia was sapping the life
out of their patient. DR.. Hertzstein,
of San Francisco, arrived here at 2
o'clock this morning He was at once
conveyed to the McKittrick ranch
and after consultation came to the
conclusion that his efforts would be
of no avail and returned a few hours
later to San Francisco
A supply of oxygen, medicine and
a trained nurse were ordered from
San Francisco and will arrive in Ba-
kersville at 10 o'clock tonight. Dur
ing the day Gen. Shafter grew worse
gradually and at 5 p. m. his condition
was alarmingly critical. Offers of
sympathy and anxiety from friends in
all parts of the United States have
been pouring in.
At 5 o'clock this afternoon DR..
Schaefer, of Bakersville, made the fol-
towing statement concerning the con-
dition of Maj. Gen. Shafter
The General is constantly growing
worse. He is approaching a general
breakdown, and unless radical
change occurs within the next TWEEN
ty-four hours all hope must be aban-
doned."
His temperature is 1923, and his
pulse 140.

MEMPHIS 20
LICE MIDDLE
Mayor Malone to Submit charoes
Against Chief o'Haver Today.

+! MEMPHIS, Tenn. Nov. 1S.-The
Chief of Police fight is due to come be
fore the City Council tomorrow. and
a large crowd will be on hand. Mayor
Malone completed his formal charges
today, which make Up quite a volum.
nous document. Beyond stating that
they fully set forth O'Haver's action
on election day and since that time. the
Chief Executive would not go into de-
tails. He said that he did not think
1t proper TO give out the charges for
publication in advance OF their for
NAL presentation, but did say that
"Mr. o'Haver will be notified to be on
hand"
The idea of the supporters of the
Mayor will be to set the trial for De-
cember 6. Mr.. Walsh and his asso-
ciates will insist that no grounds for
trial exist and that o'Haver has
already been reinstated by the Fire
and Police Commissioners. Upon this
a vote will be taken.
At the session of the Board of Po-
lice and Fire Commissioners Mayor
Malone filed formal charges of insub-
ordination, naming the December
meeting as the date of trial. Vice
Mayor Walsh asked that in the mean
time o'Haver continue as Chief. This
was carried over the opposition of the
Mayor. Thereupon the Mayor played
his trump card, praying Chancellor
Heiskell to issue an Injunction re-
straining O'Haver from acting as
Chief pending trial More testimony
is wanted by the Chancellor and he
will render his decision Saturday. Ru-
mors are flying fast that sensational
testimony will develop at the hearing.

Why Many Women Suffer
From Constipation
The Natural Remedy.

The delicate and intricate character
of the female organs make them most
susceptible to irregularity, and for the
same reason it is most important that
each one should be kept in condition
to perform its functions in a normal
manner. At all of the special periods
when womankind is performing the
functions peculiar to her sex there is a
decided tendency to sluggishness of the
bowels. Nature then requires a gentle
assistant. Not powerful and expensive
drugs, that must be taken at frequent
intervals and are SO drastic as to dam
age the tender lining of the stomach
and bowels and do more harm than
good, but a pure and harmless laxative
such as is the famous Natural Mineral
Water-HUNYADI JANOS-one dose of
which will move the bowels gently but
copiously in natural manner. The
dose is u a tumblerful drunk on aris-
ing in the morning (slightly warmed for
best results). One bottle contains
many doses and costs but trifle at all
Druggists.

Manager VIM. Stoddart's report
showed that the drought caused
shortage in the crop of 1905 amounting
to between 500 and 1000 IONS and, by
its influence on the young cane. would
cause the crop of 1906 to fall below TO-
600 tons against an estimate of 49,
Gt0 tons when the cane was six months
old. This experience had constrained
the company to hasten the full devei-
cpment of water by electric power from
the plant Of the Kauai Electric Co..

June. Two new pumping stations in

pAUOA MEN
IN EARNEST
Promise to
Help Them to
Progress.

The Republican club of the Third
up the matter of the Improvement of
Pauoa valley at a meeting held at
the residence of Charles Booth last
night, and did things. The meeting
was very largely attended, Supervisors
Lucas and Adams, and Road Super
visor Sam Johnson being present by
invitation.
After the meeting had been called
to order, the following petition already
adopted by the Pauoa and Pacific
Heights Improvement Club was pre-
scented and read:
To the Board of Supervisors, County of
Oahu.
Gentlemen: WE the undersigned,
residents, taxpayers and property
owners in and around the District of
Pauoa, Honolulu, hereby petition your
Honorable Board to give this valley
the attention it should be entitled to,
in view of the fact that the adjacent
valleys, namely, Kalihi and Manoa,
have steadily gone ahead with extern
tive improvements ana IndL large SuHlS
of money have been expended by the
government for rights of way and
materials are donated, thereby saving
the government large sums of money.
Therefore, we respectfully urge your
Honorable Board to take immediate
steps for the extension of Fort street,
and the making of horseshoe road in
Pauoa valley, (Which is one mile from
= to- T o1,r1,v
tended at the back maps and surveys
of which have been completed by the
government.
This petition is signed by over two
hundred residents and property own
ers of Pauoa valley and the adjacent
region, among these being the names
of Hon. S. B. Dole, Hon. A. S. Cleg- |
horn. the Bishop Estate. j. o. Carter, |
G. P. Castle, Mrs. B. c. Coleman, the
Hawaiian Trust Co., j. B. Atherton
Estate, c. c. Van Horn, E. A. Mott |
Smith, E. 0. White, c.. w. Booth, A.
w. Nelly. and Mrs. Mary Foster.
After the petition was read, the
members of the Board of Supervisors
present suggested that it be presented
to the Board of Supervisors of Oahu
County in the regular way. and a
committee of three consisting OF
Messrs. Booth, Kerr and Nicely was
appointed to present the petition to
the board at it's next regular meet
ing.
The Supervisors present at the meet
ing, Messrs. Adams and Lucas, both
expressed themselves as favorable to
the objects of the petition, and prom
missed to give it the strongest support
when it should be presented to the
board.
The Pauoa people are very much in
earnest in this matter of the opening
of one of the most beautiful valleys
fact that the improvement matter
should have been taken UP so earnest
ly at a political precinct club meet
ing. In fact, whether the Pauoaites
are doing politics or whether they are
not, they are always doing work for
the opening up of the valley and for
a closer connection with the balance
of the city. 1t is a most astonishing
thing, when the location of Pauoa is
considered. that it should remain so
remote from Honolulu as it will con-
tinue to be until Fort street is ex-
tended.
With that work done, however, and
the circular road around the head of
the valley built, Pauoa will become
one of the citys choice residence sec
tons, and a show place as well.
