FORTY PRISONERS RELEASED
Holiday Following Sunday Makes Day
for Trial Too Far Away and
Jail Is Crowded

Forty men who were arrested Satur-
day and Sunday on the charge of
drunkenness were released yesterday
morning by order of Chief Auble
Some of them had been arrested Sat
urday morning and at the time OF
their release had served two days with
out having any trial whatever, owing
to the fact that another day must
elapse before the police court would
have a session, 1t was deemed best to
release them.
Another reason for their release was
that the jail was overcrowded and room
was imperative.

The various beaches offered attrac-

the day at the waters edge while
thousands of others flocked to Agri-

day was the monster celebration of the
Native Sons and Daughters OF the
Golden West at Naples. Almost every
parlor in Southern California was
represented in the great picnic at the
popular resort.
Sports Add to Enjoyment
Sports on land and water made the
day lively and the prizes offered gave
an added zest to the various contests.
For the evening, dancing and musica
selections formed an enjoyable ending

INJURED ONE BABBLES OF
GREEN FIELDS
Hears Distant Music as Ambulance
Bears Away Shattered Remains
of Once Handsome Pseudo
Dress Buyer
"on your marks. get set, go!"

There was a wild charge, a rare
view of lingerie and 500 women MEM
bers of the best families of Los An
geles dashed madly across the upper
floor of certain downtown cloak
house yesterday morning, and fell
bodily upon so fine evening gowns dis
played there at cut rate prices. and
those who were lucky enough departed
with them.
AS a bargain sale. so far as the
management was concerned the sale
was a decided failure in the money
line, but as a football rush according
to the old rules of the tandem buck,
1T was a decided success, and shows
what a woman might do on the foot
ball field If the proprieties of society
with the helping hand of fad gave
her chance to display her capabili-
ties with the pigskin.
1t was obscurely advertised that the
evening gowns would be on sale at
SIS per gown. Sunday the women
of Los Angeles who could afford such
gowns gazed at the enhancing crea-
tions and straightway went home and
began training to get in condition.
From the days of Adam, when Eve
used to chase out early every Monday
morning and "cop" out the best fig
leaves before the omnivorous animals
of the gardens saw fit to eat up the
dress goods, men have wondered how
women succeeded in rushing bargain
sales.
1t is true statement that a woman
trains as conscientiously for bar
gain sale as a prize fighter does for
fight, for life and limb must be pro-
tected In those sales.
Men FooIlshIy Enter Contest
There are no rules governing a bar
gain rush and so none of the delicate
courtesies Of the prize ring or the foot
ball field are observed. No woman
recognizes a friend In bargain sale.
All women are her enemies and, If
the other woman gets In trouble, let
her die of exhaustion, for 1t is the sur
Vival of the fittest.
And such was the condition yester-
day when 500 women trained to the
minute, and eight sad faced but ex-
pectant male buyers lined up in the
early dawn before the doors of the
store waiting for the opening sale.
There were slender women with the
light Of determined battle in their

A regular Kona storm began early
this morning and by the time that day
light was upon the city and people
went to the water front there was big
surf piling over the reef and the wa
ters in the harbor were choppy and
nasty looking. Overhead there was q

but the wise ones knew that the rain
would not come from that source for

direction and they were right. About
$3.50 o'clock this morning a heavy show
er of fine rain came up and with the
wind behind it the rain made travelling
in the open very disagreeable, as well
as difficult The shower lasted for
about ten minutes and it has been fol-
lowed during the morning by other
showers.
The approach of the storm was in.

STREAM OVER WHICH THERE IS

The case presents some new points
here, 1t is said, owing to the fact that
the only water that ever reaches the
settlers who are complaining is storm
water. There is no regular stream to
their places, but after heavy rains the
water gets that far, probably running
for about three months of every year

AUDITOR HOLDS UP
THE PARK MONEY
COUNTY ATTORNEYS AD-
REFUSES KAPIoLANI COMMISSION
APPROPRIATED Neutrality-suspicious.


The County Auditor has held up the
1884. O5 that was appropriated last
evening by the Board Of Supervisors for
the maintenance of KapiOlani Park.
He did this upon the advice of the
county attorney, which was not to draw
warrants for it. The county attorney
bases his action upon the opinion which
he handed to the supervisors at their
meeting last evening.
"The .Kapiolani Park Commissioners
will carry the matter into the Supreme
Court" so said L. A. Thurston, secre-
tary of the Kapiolani Park Commission
ers this morning. 1t is not thought that
the opinion handed o the supervisors by
County Attorney Douthitt last evening,
in which he said the Board had no
power to appropriate money for the
keeping of the park, will stand before
the Supreme Court
Without money the Commission
would be powerless in a very short
time, as there is no surplus money The
appropriations have never been as
much as were needed, to say nothing
of saving any for "rainy day"

WHY PRISONERS

REMOVAL DOES NOT AFFECT THE
INFAMOUS PUNISHMENT DECI-
SIONS AT ALL.

High Sheriff Henry is removing pri-
soners from outside districts to the

proper accommodations for them ex-
cept In the Jail here. Complaints were
received from the Hilo Jail that there
was sickness due to lack of sufficient
room, and the removals were advised
by Attorney General Peters on this
ground
The habeas corpus proceedings in
which one of the points raised was that
Henry had a right to confne prisoners
in any jail he chose, have nothing to
do with the removals, it is stated. In
fact the adoption of a new system by
the sheriff would not at all affect the
cases in question according to the
lawyers. The arguments of the law
yers showed the law as to Infamous
punishments to be based not on what
punishment actually is inflicted, but
also on what might be imposed il the
sheriff saw fit

business of Peacock and Company is
going on this afternoon, while the at

They rad a consultation with Judge
Lindsay this morning, after which the
preparation of the injunction papers
were begun, and the papers to be pre-

judges expressions of opinion in the
matter.
The decision of Judge Lindsay in
favor of Peacock covered only the
proposition of presidency, it is claim
