WOODS EXCURSION
FROM Los ANGELES

II. p. Wood. secretary of the Hawaii
Promotion Committee. is planning a
Los Angeles business mems excursion
to Honolulu. to take place some time
before the regular excursion season

Angeles should get much of the island
trade which now goes to the northern
seaports.
Mr.. Wood is planning to take about
100 representative business men to the
islands. He plans to start late in No
vember and get back about Christmas.
He is optimistic about the future OF

A BROWN TALKER.
| Among the hardest workers for
/ Brown is the one-armed man who
takes his place at the corner of King
and Bethel streets every noon. He is
loud of mouth and has the virtues of
| the party for which he works as pat
as pat. When he was on a mission of
! mercy for the Republicans, he spouted
as IL he believed what he said. Then
he became a Home Ruler, for reve-
nue., and told of the good things that
would come to the Hawaiians after
the election. That was during the CAM
paign when Iaukea had the Congress
sional chair on his mind. He then told
the Hawaiians that If they elected Iau-
kea instead of Cupid he would work
for the Acknowledgement OF the Ha-
waiians. He talked so much OF this
that they were beginning to believe
him, and the result Of that election
was traced partly to this cause. Final
ly he was arrested for criminal libel.
The case dragged along for a time and
was finally dropped, when this same
man, Umauma, went into court and
admitted that he was a liar and then
made affidavit to that effect At that
time he wrote an article which was
published in native paper here at the
time. In the office of a law firm In
Honolulu there is a document of which
copy is here given. 1t reads:
Col. c. p. Iaukea, Honolulu.

charges that have preferred against
you in certain affidavit published by
me on the 4th day of November, 1904.

RANGE LIGHT
IS ORDERED

Authority for the construction OF the
new range light for Honolulu was re-
ceivei yesterday from Washington by
Captain ]. r. slattery U. S. A., Corps
OF Engineers. The Lighthouse Board
has selected the intersection OF Fort
street and the Esplanade as the site
for this concrete pillar.
The height of the tower from base
TO the floor of the balcony Is fifty
feet, and the height TO the focal plane
above mean tide is sixty feet The
height of the structure from the base
to the top of the lantern is sixty-two
feet.
The light will be OF the fourth-class
order, flashing n white light every five
seconds. This flash will be visible six
teen miles at sea from the deck of a
vessel like the Manchuria, twelve miles
from the deck of a steamer like the
Kinau and eight miles from a row.
boat.
This is a rear range light, the harbor
light being the front light. The plans
for this harbor light, new one, have
not been acted upon yet.
The range light pillar is to be built
of reinforced concrete at a cost of
&c. 600.
The Lighthouse Board is putting in
a new beacon at Hilo which will con-
sist of a thirty-two-foot stone monu-
ment, on the top Of which n lantern
will be placed. The board is also soon
to renew the beacons at Pepeekeo.
where a sixty-foot steel mast will be
raised. and at Nawiliwili, where a
thirty-two-foot mast is to erected.

ing upon the advice of Police Officer
Logan, his road men had struck work
1925 day. but he refused to yield.
and with few of the faithful he con-
tinued the work. He was afterwards
Informed that he could have all the men
he wished in Laia for 81 per day each.
The matter OF ballots for the coming
election was up for discussion, a sec
ton of the County Act providing that
they must be inspected by the Board OF
Supervisors not less than two days be-
fore election. In order to get them
into the outside districts II was thought
best for the board to meet again on
Friday. November 2, at which time the
budget for November will be con-
sidered.

THE STRANGE STORY OF A
KIDNAPPED NATIVE WOMAN

Mrs. Flora X. Crowell, native
woman, after being sought for ten
months by Board of Health officers, was
apprehended and conveyed to the Ka.
lihi Receiving Station. 1t is not the
long pursuit of her, though, which is
of particular interest, for in that re-
gard her case is but one of many
old stories and some of them tragic.
There is tragedy, too, in Mrs. Gro
wells narrative.
Since the woman has come into Gus
tody of the Health authorities she has
given information to the effect that
she had been kept prisoner.
She was the daughter of Hattie X.
Hiram who died Nov. 5, 1905, and was
married in 1900 to Clement C. Gro
well at which time a daughter was
born. Six months afterwards she was
arrested as n leper suspect and taken
to Kalihi Receiving Station. She was
permitted to reside outside while re-
ceiving treatment. Her mother then
sent her to Japan, in company with
another leper suspect, for medicad
treatment.
Owing to some irregularity in re-
ceiving the money sent for her main
tenance there she returned to Honolulu
within nine months. On arriving here
she went to her mothers house on
Beretania street where she has been
faithfully concealed from 1900 to the
date of her mother s death, her pres.
ence being known to no one but her
mother, woman named Keluia, and
George Kaia. On the date when her
mother was alleged to be sick she
heard loud language and thinking all
was not right presented herself. Her
mothers brother, Solomon Hiram, was
there wrangling and was as much sur
prised as any one at her putting in
an appearance. He, together with
Keluia and George Kaia, took hold of
her and forced her into cottage in
the yard and locked her up. The fol-
lowing day, and while her mother was
still alive they took her off to George
kaia's house on Young street.
From there she was taken to n place
up in Kalihi valley where she lived
when they took her to small grass
house above Punchbowl, on the way
to Tantaus. She escaped from there
and got back to her own house on
Beretania street, where she has lived |

whereabouts except an old man who !

ter days of her stay there he failed |

to her own house on Young street.

mother died, so suddenly, he was call

learned for the first time that she was
in this country. He sent many mes
sages and messengers to her, but was
utterly unable to get communication

hunted condition and used every pos
sible endeavor to reach her without
avail.
Solomon Hiram had gone away with
the Hawaiian band and had left writ

of her (Which she afterwards saw.

mothers clothing had been taken so

She made power of attorney to

power over her property. He, being
advised, made trust deed to w. o.

stronger man than himself to collect

The following day she made another to

tFrom saturdays Advertiser,

The meeting OF the Board OF super

from the fact that there was no dis

members TO active work. The politi-
clans whose interests are centered
here were In their seats as usual rath-
err than on the stump working for

For several months past rumors
have been numerous that the Union
Pacific management was endeavoring
to gain possession of the Illinois
Central from Stuyvesant Fish, the
president and controlling factor in
that property. Mr. Hartman at
tempted within the last ten days to
gain possession of the road. This
proved of little avail, as Mr.. Fish at
tained enough support from the
stockholders to stave off the aggres-
sion Of the Hartman party. For
the time being the Illinois Central,
therefore, will continue an independ-
ent property and the latest report is
that Mr. Hartman proposes to build
a road of his own.
