DEATH OF MRS. FRANCES
6. HOBRON AT A GREAT AGE

pitality was not confined to Hawail-
mel.
Although educated and brought up
in luxury in the East she willingly fol-
lowed her husband to these far isles,
where foreign society was scarce, and
quickly adapted herself to her sur
roundings.
Wherever she lived, either in Maka-
wac, Honolulu or Oakland, Mrs. Hob
ron could be found teaching a sunday
School class or taking part in the work
of some of the charitable or church
societies.
She delighted in the society of the
young and she had such genial hap
py disposition that they all felt they
could go to her with their cares and
We're sure of sympathy and assist
ance.
Although. she had reached far be-
yond the allotted term OF life, Mrs.
Hebron did not appear old, as the lines
had fallen on her In pleasant places
and her beautiful face bore the same
genial smile to the last.
She had buried her father. Captain
Grey, her mother, her husband, and
two. sisters and had much grief in her
long life, but she maintained through
out the same uniform serenity as
though she confidently felt that they
had only gone before.
She leaves as her immediate family,
her daughters, Mrs. w. II. Bailey of
Oakland. Cal, and Mrs w. o. Smith
and her son, Thomas w. Hebron, to
mourn her, as well as many grand
children and great grandchildren.
Truly, a lady of the highest type of
Christian motherhood has been taken
from our community and one whose
loss win be deeply felt by all who knew
her and her circle of acquaintance was
very large one.
Her funeral will take place at p.
m. today from the residence of w. o.
Smith, Esq, on Nuuanu street.

TAFT ADMITS THAT OUTLOOK Is
GRAVE.

CHICAGO, February 21.-Secretary
of War Taft, who was the guest here
tonight at dinner given by the Yale
Club, in discussing the situation in the
Far East, revealed some little govern
ment uneasiness as to the outcome and
he did not deny that the detachment
OF 5000 troops which has been dis
patched to the Philippines may be
needed in China in the near future.
The Eastern situation is problemat-
ical." he said. China IS now In a
state of unrest. To many 1t seems
that the conditions which prevail there
are similar to those which preceded
the Boxer uprising. 1t must be hoped,
however that the outcome may not be
the same. The detachment of troops
was not sent to China, but to the Phil
ippines."

DUPLEX THE WHOLE LINE.

In a short time instruments will be
received by the local cable people for
converting the cable line between Ho-
nolulu and Midway into what is known
as the duplex system, which now pre-
walls between Honolulu and San Fran
cisco.
BY the duplex system messages can
be sent and received at the same sta
ton over the single cable strand be-
tween two points. thus giving the sys-
TEN an advantage Of one hundred per
cent.
The plan OF the cable company is to
make a duplex system out of the whole
Pacific Ocean division. In time the du-
pick system viii be adjusted to the
strand between Midway and Guam and
thence to Japan and Shanghai.

RUSSIA TAKES POSSESSION


ST. PETERSBURG, February 20.
Chinese relations and the negotiations
of Minister Pokotiloff with the Peking
Government are engrossing the atten-
ton OF Russian diplomacy, even to the
exclusion Of the Algeciras conference.
Minister PokotiloH is chiefly interes ted
with Manchuria and the preservation
of Russia's special rights there.
Apprehonsions of an indefinite result
are voiced in dispatches from Picking.
The negotiations are directed to securs
ing Russia in her favored position in
Mongolia. These apprehensions are
rather belated in view OF the fact,
though this is not generally known,
that two OF the easterly provinces of
Mongolia. Tsetsenchan and Tuschetu-
chan, were long since given over to
Russo Chinese bank exploitation and
are thus actually part OF Russia's
sphere of influence under an agree.

troops. consisting of infantry, cavalry
and artillery, have been introduced at
lection of Russian Consuls." These
military "outposts OF the empire" have
been pushed forward into Chinese ter

The cat was let out of the bag con-
corning the presence of a considerable
force AT Urga including infantry and
Cossacks and several guns. by the in
cautious publication in an obscure
provincial paper of "A casual account OF
celebration of the departure of one
company of the garrison and the ar
rival of another.
The two provinces given over to the
Russo Chinese Bank cover the route OF
the proposed railroad from Baikal to
Picking, for which concession was OBJ
tanned, but the money was wanting.
The Russo Chinese Bank also has val
liable mining rights including gold.
The Manchurian situation has given
rise to a sharp difference of opinion in
the government one side urging
speedy realization of the provisions OF
the treaty of Portsmouth for the
evacuation, except by railroad guards,
end the complete abandonment OF the
Manchurian adventure, and the other
side working for delay, pleading in
justification of its attitude the claim
that the decision of China to send sew
eral corps to Manchuria is directed
against Russia. A special session Of
the council for national defense has
been called to consider the question.

1t is with deep regret that we are
called on to chronicle the death OF Mrs.
Frances f. Hebron.
This estimable lady. widow of the
late Capt. T. II. Hebron, passed away
at p. m. yesterday after quite a
long illness which she bore most I'M
complainingly. She was eighty-one
years, two months and twenty days
old and had lived on the islands since
1852.
Her husband was one OF the pioneers
in the sugar industry, having estab-
lished a plantation at Grove Ranch,
Makawao. Maui, and was the first, as
an individual, to engage in inter-is-
land steam navigation, having built
the "Kilauea- hou." He had built the
schooner Kamoi in New London, Conn.
and brought her round the Horn and
at one time owned also the Moiwahine
and Moi Keiki all of which piled be-
tween Honolulu and Maui In his BUSH
ness as planter and ship owner he
amassed fortune.
Mrs. Hebron was member of the
Society OF the Daughters of the Amer
lean Revolution, her grandfather hav-
ing taken active part in both the Colo
NAL and Revolutionary Wars.
She was an active member of every
charitable association ON the islands
ana an earnest, lifelong Christian.
on the plantation, in Makawao, she
was interested in the welfare of the
home-life of all the natives in her
husbands employ and her hand was
always ready to assist any in distress
without regard to their nationality or
social rank
In the olden time the planters were
compelled to entertain all visitors to
the islands, as there were no hotels,
and Mrs Hobron's reputation for hos

PECULIAR FIRES.
The Manner In Which Many Disas.
trouS BiazeS Originate

Dust is wonderful producer of fires.
There have been instances in post
offices where the dust of the mail bags
suspended in the rear of close room
exploded with terrific force. Dust ex-
plosions are Of frequent occurrence in
-four and drug mills. The origin Of
many fires in tailor shops may be
traced to the so called dry cleaning Of
clothes. a rag dipped in naphtha is
frequently used in removing grease
spots from garments. The rag soaked
with infammable fluid is thrown upon
the floor. When the shop is closed up
and the air is confined the naphtha
soaked material will of itself generate
fire. Bales of cotton placed in the
hold of a ship are often the cause Of
disastrous fires. Frequently a spark
from cigar finds a resting place in a
cotton bale, where it smolders for
weeks. The dark hall in tenement
houses is the indirect originator of
fires. Greasy mating or small heaps
Of paper lie about. A match not extin-
guished or a cigarette stub is thrown
down, and a blaze results.-Fire and
