THINKS he WAS
A BUACO VICTIM

The Hawaii Shinpo says: II would
be well for the Oahu r. r Co and
| The Wells. Fargo & Co. to watch theil
agents with greater care. and protect
their business and the passengers on
their cars, if the following commune
cation be true:
Aiea, Oahu, Feb. s, 1906.
| Mr.. c. Shfozawa. Hawaii Shinpo.
! Dear Sir: Permit me to bother you
by submitting the following statement
OF facts to you:
At point near MOanalua, while /
was going to Eva in one of the cars of
the O. r. r. Co. a native boy OF 10 or
Is years of age came into the car ana
said that he was an employee of the
r. r Co, and demanded of me a fee
for my personal baggage. 1 told him
that l understood no fee was required
for carrying baggage and refused to
pay any. Again while I was coming to
this plantation (Aiea) by the SIS p. m.
train, 9TH inst, the same boy and an
other native youth of some % or 20
years of age entered the car No. %.
which was connected with the engine
and Selling my baggage, asked me
what it was and l tod them that it
was Photographic instrument. Then
they strongly demanded of me % cents.
Although 1 felt suspicious of their
right, 1 paid it: because 1 could not do
any thing under the circumstance, as
the demand was made in the name of
the railroad company. But they have
left the baggage where it was and went
away. Pretty soon they came back
and asked my name and seemed as if
making an entry in their book, and
suspicious, and as soon as 1 reached
the Aiea station [ told the station
agent all about it, as best as 1 could
with my poor English. The station
agent was very kind to me and told
me, as I understood with my poor Eng
lish knowledge, that the boys were en-
ployes of the Wells. Fargo & Co. and
that they are not the r. r. Co.'S en- |
ploye, and that no extra charge should |
be made for the personal baggage and !
that / ought to be more careful be- t
cause they are too smart and that |
when the boys would come back next |
morning he would rebuke them.
Be kind enough to publish this letter ,
in both Japanese and English columns
Of your paper so as to give warning to
the unsuspecting travellers and the |
companies concerned l |
regret that l was swindled of % cents, |
but 1 would save other fellows from |
the same bunco game being pracriced |
upon them.

COAST TO HAVE
BIG SQUADRON

VALLEJO, February 3.-The move
nent started at Bremerton, Wash.
and seconded by the commercial inter-
ests in this city for the enlargement
of the Pacific squadron, has received
temporary set back owing to the grave
condition of affairs in China. Vallejo
ties have been advised that as soon
as the readjustment of affairs will
permit the matter VIII be given serious
cnsderation by the department.
The movement started by the Brem-
erton and Seattle Boards of Trade and.
taken UP at Washington by Senator
Piles OF Washington, assisted by the
membersi of the Oregon, Washington
and California Congressional delega-
lions, will no doubt bear fruit. The
plan to keep the newly cOmpleteE
cruiser Charleston, promised for the
flagship of the Pacific squadron, wi n
the North Atlantic fleet, has been nip
ped in the bud through the activity OF
the Western Congressman, and it is
announced that the new cruiser will
soon be on her way around the Horn.
She will be accompanied by the gum
boat CaStine. Commander Cameron
Winslow viii bring the Charleston
around.
Advices received here state that the
famous battleship Oregon, in which
Californians take SO much pride. will
return to San Francisco harbor i'll
March after several years absence
She comes to San Francisco with a
great number of expired term officers
and men and will make quite a stay
in the harbor before she will leave for
Bremerton navy yard, where She will
be placed out of commission and re-
built two years having been allowed
for this job.
1t is the opinion of the naval officers
here that the policy of the department
to combine the strength of the "''E
in two large fleets means the estab-
lishment of fleet on this coast that
will be worthy rival of the famous
North Atlantic squadron.

services are still held. Please tell me
which OF my informants is correct
KING WILLIAM.
The Old Church in Isle of Wight couu-
~. near Smithheid. was fitted up about
seven or eight years ago and Is now
in use. The exact or even approximate
date Of its building is not known. il is
supposed by many TO have been built in
1882. and as evidence to prove this two
bricks bearing that date were found in
the church. Mr. r. s Thomas, in the
Virginia Historical Collections. Vol. IL.
1891. has an elaborate argument to prove
the church was built In 1892 on the
other hand. Governor Harvey mentions
in letter of 1884 that the first brick
house In the colony had just been built.
which statement rather bears against
the building of 1892. Most experts. both
in history and architecture. place the
building Of the church about 1850.
