''The fact is that San Francisco has

A FILIBUSTER'S DESIGNS
ON THE CROWN OF KAUA!
Golfers Gives New Story in Connection
With the Morrow-Aarkowe Scheme to Re-
store the Hawaiian Monarchy

Several years ago the Chronicle de
teeted and exposed a Hawaiian filibus
tering scheme led by one Markowe who
proposed to come here with a shipload
of armed men, restore the monarchy
and reward himself with the title and
emoluments of ''Prince of Honolulu. -
An interesting sequel to this story is to
be found in recent Golfers wherein
! it appears that when the soldier of
| fortune, Baron Harden Hickey, lost his
"kingdom of Trinidad, Markowe Of
fered him a consolation prize in the
| sovereignty of Kauai But here is the
story:
The attack made by Great Britain
and Brazil upon the independence of
the principality, while it left Harden
Hickey in the position of a king in
exile, brought him at once another
crown, which, by those who offered it
to him, was described as of incompara-
bly, greater value than that of Trini- !
dad.
In the first instance the man had |
sought the throne; in this case the !
throne sought the man.
In 1895 in San Francisco. Ralston J.
Markowe, a lawyer and one-time Off
Ger of artillery in the United States
Army, gained renown as one of the
Morrow flibustering expedition which
attempted to overthrow the Dole gov
ernment in the Hawaiian Isles and re-
store to the throne Queen Liliuokalani. >
In San Francisco Markowe was nick q
lamed the Prince of Honolulu as it g
vas understood, should Liiiuokalani re-
rain her crown, he would be rewarded

COMPLAINTS ABOUT
TIE DAM INVITED

Today will be devoted by Exper
kellogg to hearing the complaints o
all who have any knowledge of th'
Nuuanu dam construction and wh'
care to visit the scene of the worl
and point out the places objected to
There will be free hearing by Mr.
kellogg of any one with pertinent
facts to offer, although expressions o1
private opinions, while not expressly
barred. will be quite unnecessary.
A report from Engineer Smith last
night was to the effect that If the
progress of yesterday could be main
tanned during the night the water in
the core trench would be down so as
to allow an examination of the bottom
of the wall today. Mr.. Smith also re-
cavations.

going over the correspondence between
the contractor and Mr.. Howland,'' said
Mr.. Kellogg last night
II found great deal of this CORE
spondence on file. some of which I
find comes within the scope of my in
vestigation. L could not examine it
all today. but will take it up again
at the first chance. I think it will be
necessary too for me TO go through
the reports sent in by the engineers on
the work
II hope to make an inspection of the
core wall tomorrow morning, provided
they succeed in getting the water
pumped out enough, and I am in hopes
that there may be some at the dam
to give me some pointers on places
that 1 may possibly have overlooked. |
You know the grass is pretty long up
there
The correspondence between the con-
tractor and the Assistant Superinten-
dent of Public Works, which was gone
over in part by Mr.. Kellogg, is volum1-
nous and deals with practically every
feature of the work SO far completed
More especially does it refer to those
parts of the contract where the specln-
cations have not been followed, the al
terations being ordered by Mr.. How !
land under the clause allowing such
in the opinion of the engineer IN
charge
AS the work progressed and unfore- i
seen conditions were encountered II /
was found necessary for the engineer
n charge Mr.. Howland, to direct many
such alterations some of which did not
commend themselves to the contrac-
or. The latter. to avoid all respons-
bility in these. insisted upon every :
rider being given to him in writing.

act that all work has been done under n
government inspection. relieves the h
of all responsibility From

With the Queen in prison and absolute

The matter of prohibiting stock from
running at large within the city limits
was also DISGUST and the sentiment ex-
prest indicated that an ordinance
would be past prohibiting stock from
running at large.
The clerk was instructed to purchase
such books for the use OF the treasurer
and himself as We're necessary.
The great necessity for some kind OF
safe crossing for the school children
who have to cross the railroad tracks
in going to school was brought to the
notice of the council and preliminary
action was taken by instructing the
clerk and attorney to call the attention
OF the railroad company to the great
danger OF serious accident under pres
ent conditions. 1t appeared that this
matter had been taken upby the county
commissioners last spring, before the
town was Incorporated. The railroad
company then signifed its willingne IS
to put in an overhead crossing, but be-
cause of the improvements the company
is making inside The town limits they
have delayed the crossing matter.
The matter OF appointing a marshal
was again laid over until the next
meeting, it appearing that ordinances
having not yet been adopted there was
nothing for a marshal to do.
The next meeting of the council will
be very interesting as Il number Of or
dinances will come up for final adop-
tion.

On Saturday last the grand prize Of
fered for the best general display of
fruit was awarded to the exhibit from
the Wenatehee valley.
The prize secured in competition
with exhibits from many counties in
Central Washington, the Wenatchee

of the others. Stevens county was
given the third prize of $500. No Sc
cond or fourth prizes were offered as

Considerable interest has existed for
the last two weeks among the railroad
men over the new class Of engines that
the Great Northern has ordered for
mountain work.
The 1900. the first one of this class
seen in Leavenworth arrived Wednes-
day night. 1t was in charge Of Denny
Loughin and brought eighteen hundred
tons from Wenatchee with ease, say
the railroad men. This is some six or
eight hundred tons more than the
heavy class heretofore used to haul.
There are six sets OF drive wheels and
two sets of cylinders or steam chests.
The rear drivers are propelled by kigh
pressure cylinders, from which the
steam exhausts into the forward low
pressure cylinders which are attached
to the forward drivers. In this respect
it differs from all other engines used on
the road. II is very much larger than
the other class but does not really look
so much So As it really is. The large
ness consists more in weight than out
wardly appears.
The company has bought six OF this
class all to be used on mountain diyis
ions where the grades are higher. Tive
or three will likely be used between
Leayenworth and the Cascade tunnel
They are calculated to draw from hal
again to twice as many tons As othei
heavy engines, and will be employed
altogether in freight service.

KRYPTok ToRIscus LENSES.

The Toriscus lens is generally ad.
mitted by the best oculists and op'
ticians to be a great Improvement
over any other single focus lens in
use; it is made for old and young
alike, in any combination ebtainable
in regularly ground lenses. We are
now able to make Kryptoks in Toris'
Gus shapes also.
We employ only skilled workmen
in our shop and use only the finest
quality of flint and crown glass in
the production of our Kryptok Toris-
Gus lenses. The many processes which
these lenses must undergo, and the
strict inspection placed upon the work
in its different stages, render our
product perfect in every respect. We
are thus able to guarantee entire sat
isfaction. We employ only the best
opticians who have made the subject
their life study. Write to the Colum'
bian Bifocal Co., Temple Court, Den
yer, Colo, if you wish further infor-
nation about these wonderful lenses.
They are the exclusive manufacturers

Ownership by the People.
Chicago's recent municipal election
may be taken as an indication that the
people are In earnest In the matter or
owning and controlling public utilities.
This Is something entirely different
from operating those utilities. Natu-
rally u people so Independent as the
American chafes at seeing valuable
franchises and monopolies practically
given away and the public which
makes them valuable treated as
mere convenience.
Chicago's vote for city ownership
and against operation by the city
draws a line just where other commu-
mites will draw 1t until public seryice
In this country Is divorced from poll
tics. Mayor Dunn's Glasgow expert
on municipal railways warned Chicago
against the evil of politics, and 1t Is III
this matter of operation that the polit-
lcal evil will strike. When our Ideals
of public service have become clearer
and cleaner communities can run sue
cessfully anything which they are able
to own and maintain. A step In that
direction is the public control Of cor
poratlons which operate the utilities.
and In some cases that control can only
be Insured when the corporation Is u
lessee, with the municipality as the
owner
