JAPS VIEW
OF SENDING
WARSHIP
MANY THINK SHE is COMING IN
ANSWER TO THE RECENT DE-
MAND.

The Japanese war vessel which is
coming here is a training ship sent
here for the purpose Of giving those on
board a chance to have some expert
ence. She will carry large number
of new naval officers who have never
been away from home. Most of them
were made officers during the late war,
when they were compelled to stay in
home waters, and the government, it is
stated, is taking the present opportun-
ity of sending them abroad.
The war vessel win arrive here about
October 10 and will remain to the end
of the month. 1t is expected that
there will be numerous entertainments
and local Japse will spread themselves
in doing honor to their naval represent
tative.
The visit of the vessel is being con-
siderably discussed i'm connection with
the article recently published by the
japanese Daily Chronicle. demanding
that a vessel be sent here by the Toxic
government to see that japanese here
were better treated. A large proper
ton of the japanese, it is said, re-
gard the visit of the vessel as a re-
suit of that demand and they are cor
respOndingly elated.

DEFENDS ARCHER'S
REPUBLICANISM
ALBERT wATERHOUsE COMES TO
THE VERY VIGOROUS DEFENSE
OF THE EVA SUPERVISOR.
Pearl CITY. sentemher 4. 1906.

Pearl City, September 4, 1906
EDITOR STAR; In your editorial on
practical Politics in this evenings
paper, you appear to have condemned
Supervisor Archer, before the report of
the Supervisors on the Eva appropria-
lions has been made public, or before
he is given a chance to defend himself.
AS to his relations to the Republican
Party, 1 would like to state a few
facts.
First. At the July elections of pre-
cinct club officers, our precinct Re-
publican Club considered Mr.. Archer
Republican and showed its confidence
| i'm him by electing him a member of
its executive committee.
Second. At the meeting on August
goth for the purpose of nominating de-
legates to the conventions, a resolution
was introduced by Senator McCandless
and carried expelling Mr.. Archer from
the Club. This meeting was composed
largely of those who arrived on the
plantation train.
Third. After the passage of this re-
solution, Mr.. Archer declared himself
good Republican and was allowed
to sign the club roll.
Fourth. At the primary election last
Saturday, Mr.. Archer was refused the
right of casting ballot and having it
counted.
Fifth. He is now told that "If he is a
party man, he must accept the result
or in other words, I'VE have expelled
you and refused you a vote, but you
are bound to support us"
Sixth. The suggestion that Mr.. Ar
cher no longer direct road work in his
district is, perhaps, open to argument
It cannot be said that his attitude in
politics is different today from the
time, a year ago, when he was elected
as an Independent Republican candi-
date and, by the way, Mr.. Paele, a
Home Rule member of the Republican
Board of Supervisors directs road mat
tiers in his district.
All 1 ask, Mr.. Editor, is that the pub
lie withhold judgment until the report
of the committee of supervisors inves-
| tigating the charges against Mr.. Ar
! cher, makes a report.
Respectfully yours,
ALBERT WATERHOUSE.

BOARDS
Piece OF ICE
STOLEN
REGISTRATION OFFICERS, RUSH.
TINE FOR POETIC PROTEST.

The following alleged poetry has
been posted on the ice cooler of the
Board Of Registration:
The man who steals the ice from here
Deserves not fish nor poi nor beer.
We know his fate, alas, too well,
He'll shovel coal deep down in"
The cause of this rhythmic effusion
was the stealing of the ice from the
cooler yesterday afternoon. The
Board meets in the morning from sew
en- to nine and in the afternoon from
four to eight. Among the supplies of
the offices is a ten cent piece of ice per
day. But yesterday, at some time be-
tween the evening and morning ses-
sions, the ice was "stolen, taken and
carried away"
The rush for registration has begun
in earnest now, and there was a long
line of voters, practically all natives,
at the Board this morning, Governor
Carter registered yesterday afternoon
after leaving his office.

SURF VERY HIGH
ALONG The COAST
SURF REPORTED HIGHER TODAY
AT WAIKIKI THAN IT HAS BEEN
FOR MONTHS.

The surf at Waikiki is reported to-
day to be the highest seen at that place
for number of months past. Huge
breakers are rolling in and piling up
on the beach in fashion that is sell
dom seen on this side of the island.
Many natives and others went out to
the beach this morning to take advan-
tage of the high rollers and had enough
exciting sport of surf riding.
late last evening the surf was high
off the harbor and the Healani crew on
its evening pull went outside of the
buoys and came very near being
swamped in the high waves. Con-
slant bailing of the boat was required
on the pull back. The boat was at
times over half full of water.
Many are expressing fears for the
Transport Sheridan, ashore at BARRIERS
Point. The surf there must be high
also and that is bound to work con-
siderable hardship on the stranded ves-
sell en-
There is no apparent cause for the
high surf as the weather conditions
seem to be about the same as they
have been for the past two weeks. Some
attribute the cause to the unusual dis
turbances at Hilo noticed during the
past two days.

DR.. Nicholas Russell sailed by the
Hongkong Maru to resume the work
in which he was engaged throughout
the Japanese Russian war.
This work is the propaganda of the
doctrines Of free institutions and rep
resentative government among his

long ago there was brief account in
one of the Japanese newspapers of the
work done by DR.. Russell, in the course
of which it was stated that the in

very widespread.
DIR. Russell's wife remains in Ha-
wall, but DR.. Russell intimated that
he might close. out all his interests
here and leave the islands for good.

PROF. MUENTER WRITES
PARENTS OF HIS DEAD WIFE RE-
CEIvE STRANGE PAMPHLET.
Either Suspected Murderer Is Insane or
Is Trying to Appear to Be
a Maniac.

CHICAGO, H., June 5.-Eric Muen-
ter, the Harvard instructor whose wife
died April Is in Boston under mysterious
circumstances, has been heard from.
The relatives of his wife received today
pamphlet un9uestionably written by
him, and mailed from New Orleans The
document, which consists of several
thousand words, is entitled, Protest"
and although it is unsigned it is evil
dent that it was written by Muenter.
As an introduction several hundred
words are devoted to burlesque ac-
count of a supposed death, and then fol-
lows an extended criticism of those who
have written and talked about him.
AS a last word in his own defense
Muenter says: And if my fellowmen
call this protest of mine insanity, then /
will spend the rest of my life on my
knees and beg the merciful father in
heaven to take away all the rest, if need
be, but to leave me my insanity"
CAMBRIDGE, Mass, June 5.-Evi-
dence relating to the death of the wife
of Erick Muenter, a Harvard instructor,
on April Is, was presented to the grand
jury today. Several physicians, an agent
of the company in which Mrs. Muenter
was insured, and several others were
witnesses. District Attorney Sanderson
announced that in case the grand jury
did report an indictment it would be
kept secret until Muenter was arrested.

COST WAS $4,000, 900.
More Than 100000 Falls to Dressmak.
ers, Milliners, Tailors and Jewellers
as Result of Wedding,

LONDON, June lit is estimated
that the royal wedding involved the ex-
penditure of $10,OOO,OOO. The outlay for
decorations by the municipality and pri-
yate citizens amounted to $125,OOO.
Since every woman invited to the we'd
ding ceremony and various festivities had
to buy an elaborate new robe, ornaments,
and in many cases jewels, it is estimated
that not less than $3,5OO,OOO was paid
milliners, dressmakers and jewelers.. An
instance Is that of dowager duchess,
aged 70, who bought a new tiara for
$4,000. A majority of the $500 noble
men and others had to get new uniforms
and court dresses. The cost of these is
placed at $457, 800.
The restoration Of the royal state
coaches, new harness and trappings, cost
more than $4,000. More than $1,25O,-
600 was expended in preparing and re-
decorating the Pardo palace, including
the building Of new kitchens, in furnish
in the chateau of La Granja for the
honeymoon, and restoring the apartments
in the palace at Madrid for the new
Queen.
New uniforms for troops and court
servants cost $4,000. In addition to
all this there is the outlay for the bull
fight, military review, various fetes,
which it is known will amount to many
thousands of dollars.

CHAPTER XVI

At the risk of being accused of betray-
ing the secrets of the sex, this opportunity
is taken of recording an observation made
respecting men. 1t is simply this That
we all turn sooner or later to some won
en- in our difficulties. And when a man
has gone irretrievably to the dogs his
descent is applicable by the simple argu-
ment that he happened to turn to the
wrong woman. Matthew Mark Easton
had hitherto got along fairly we'll with
out feminine interference, but this in no
manner detracted from his respect for
feminine astuteness. This respect now
urged him to brush his hat very carefully
one afternoon, purchase new flower for
his button hole, and drive to Miss Win
ter's. He found that lady at home and
alone.
''I thought" he said, as he entered the
room and placed his hat carefully on the
piano, that I should find you at home
this afternoon. 1t is so English outside"
1.-THE weather does not usually affect
my movements" replied Miss Winter. Il
am glad you came this afternoon, because
am not often to be found at home at
this time Tell me, how is Mr.. Tyars?"
He is WE'LL" was the answer, thank
you. His arm is knitting nicely"
There was little pause, then he add
ed, with a marked drawl-an Ameri-
canism to which he rarely gave way:
"Ho-w is Miss Grace?"
Agnes Winter looked up sharply. Mat
thew Mark Easton met the gaze of those
clever northern eyes with half smile.
She gave little short laugh, half pleas
ed, half embarrassed, like the laugh of
some fair masker when she finds herself
forced to lay aside her mask.
II wonder" she. said, show much you
know?"
The strange, wrinkled face fell at once
into an expression of gravity which rem
dered it somewhat wistful and almost
ludicrous.
"Nothing-I guess!'
"How much do you surmise?' she
amended, unconsciously using a word to-
ward which he had a decided converse
tional penchant.
Everything. My mind is in fevered
state of surmise."
