TWO CALVES AT ONE MEAL.
Haddam Neck Farmers Securing the
 Woods for tho Animal.


 East Hampton, May 10.-Down Haddam Neck way there is great ex- citement over a large animal that has been seen roaming the woods. Merrill E. Shepard and George West, both of Haddam Neck, have seen the animal, which they describe as re- sembling panther. A hunting party of twelve or fifteen men has been organized and has been looking for the animal for the past two days. They tracked 1t mile and half toward East Haddam and the tracks resemble those of cat, only much larger. They measure nine inches the longest way. MT Shepard said it stood as large as fair sized deer. The hunting party did not catch up with the creature. The people in the neighborhood are so frightened that they are keeping in the house at night.
 Last night report came from East Haddam that two calves owned by Lyman Sexton of East Haddam were killed and probably eaten the night before, supposedly by the ani- nal. It Is thought that the animal escaped from some circus.
 During the past winter large an- final was seen down Millington way which was described as a large wolf.

THE ELAMo CASE.
Coroner Mix Is Expected to Render
 a Decision Soon.

Coroner Mix Is Expected to Render
 Q Decision Soon.
 Though many witnesses have been examined by Cononer Mix, who is holding the inquest in connection with the murdering of Rocco Elamo. and from the information learned. the po- lice are confident that Lorenzo Aquila- no Is the man wanted, it Is the general opinion that the evidence is not strong enough to hold the accused. Coroner Mix Is expected to come to this city late in the day and to render his find ing either tonight or tomorrow morn- ing.
 This morning a we'll known tusi- ness man from Brooklyn went to the police station to see if he could ident- ffy the prisoner as the person who en- tered his store in company with Fla. mo on the day that the man was nur. dered. Two or three other Italians were placed with the accused. hut the man from Brooklyn failed to Identify the prisoner. On the afternoon that Elamo lost his life be. or at least q man answering his description entered Brooklyn, in company witE another Italian. They inquired what was the shortest route to where the laborers of Frank Ley were working. near the Middlebury road. Though tine busl- ness man thought nothing of the ques- ton at the time. In view of what be learned later, he had e suspicion thaa the man was Elamo. Though the two men who were placed in quarters with Aquilano on Wednesday ev.n- ing for the purpose of trying to pump him. received little information. the plan was not the success anticipated.
 The detectives and Superintendent of Police Beach think that the eoro- ner win not order the prisoner to be held unless some new witness puts In an appearance.
 IL was rumored that couple of residents in the vicinity of the mur- der could give some valuable infor- nation In regard to the case. but were keeping mum under the fear of getting Into trouble. The police de- clare they have been unable to loC ate these parties and have heard of no threats made by friends Of the nan held ct the station. N

NOW HOLMES & BULL
C. L. Holmes will Devote His
 Time 10 Trust Co.

The well known brokerage firm of lC. l.. Holmes & Go is to be succeeded iby that of Holmes & Bull, c. L.
 Holmes retiring from the concern to Igive his attention to the new Water bury Trust Go which will hold a meeting in the Holmes block on Grand street, in few days, for the purpose of completing the re- Organization and electing officers. The capital stock of the new com pany is $200,000, all paid in. It is in the hands of thoroughly reliable men and starts of with bright pros poets for a successful career. It is understood that c. l.. Holmes will be chosen presideno and Henry s. See 1 ley treasurer.
 The brokerage business of c. L.. Holmes & Go was originated by c. l.. Holmes in 1898 on Center street. In 1901 w. w. Holmes was admitted to partnership, the business at that time being conducted at 63 North Main
 street. Soon after the big fire the firm realized the value of owning their own quarters and accordingly their present location on Grand street
 was bought of the New England En- gineering Go and the Holmes build- ling was built for investment and per-
 manent location. In October, lS05, IC. Sanford Bull was taken into the I firm to provide for the retirement Of IC. L. Holmes who was in need of a iprotracted rest from active business. < MT Holmes health is vastly improved
 but new alliances have been made and it seems best to him to now make
 the announcement of his retirement. | MT Holmes has also sold his in
 terest in the Holmes building to the
 new firm. The new project is some
 thing which MT Holmes has had in
 mind for the past 20 years. but for
 one reason or another the final step
 was deferred until now. He Is a young man of wide experience, great
 personal integrity and comes from
 stock that has been prominently
 Identified with the development Of Waterbury.

partment states that the total expen-
diture at Mare Island for the fiscal
year ending June 80, 1907, was $324,-
50O.34, about equally divided between
labor and materials. Repairs were
made to thirty-four tugs, gunboat is,
cruisers, submarines, transports, and

charterers that she will be able TO
secure japanese passengers at the rate
of at least three hundred a month
during the time she will be kept on

All the arrangements for this steam

.FREAR' TALK
At MUSkOGEE.
Relates Territory's Claims and
Urges Pearl HarbOr
Resolution.

James F. Morgan, president of the
Honolulu Chamber of Commerce. has
received a letter from Governor Wal
ter F. Frear, enclosing copies OF the
two addresses delivered by the Gov
ernor at the Transmississippi Con-
gress, together with the text of the
resolution he presented there on be-
half of the Chamber of Commerce.
Governor Frear states that the pres
ident of the Honolulu Chamber of
Commerce was elected as one of the
vice presidents of the congress.
He also gives the pleasing informa-
tion that President Loveland of the
Transmississippi Congress expects to
visit Honolulu in January.
Other items conveyed by the Cow
ernor are already known to Adver-
tiser readers-the appointment of H.
P. Wood. secretary of the Chamber
of Commerce, as a member of the
Congressional Committee, and the Sc
lection of san Francisco as the place
of next years meeting of the Trans
mississippi Congress.
Following are the remarks Of Gov
ernor Frear on the opening day of the
congress, when governors We're given
the right of way on the floor:
GOVERNOR FREAR'S GREETINGS.
Hawaii, the newest of the Terri
tories, brings greetings and felicita-
tions to Oklahoma, the newest of the
States. These, / regret to say, are not
greetings of welcome-for Hawaii, al
though she has ultimate hopes, does
Inot yet belong to the sisterhood of
States. They are rather felicitations
of Godspeed to the parting one from
the sisterhood of Territories. In the
very nature of the case, they are not
and can not be merely perfunctory,
for the unexampled growth of Okla
homa has been such in rapidity and
solidSly as to give her not only su-
oerabundance of right to enter the
galaxy of States, but also unquestton-
ed and unquestionable assurance that
she will be a star of the first magnf-
tude in that galaxy.
Hawaii can not boast any such IA :
fpidity of growth, but she yields to

MONUMENTAL SCIENTIFIC
WORK TO BE UNDERTAKEN
Pacific Scientific Institution Fully Organized
Will Make Scientific Survey of
the Pacific.

I kind than that to be expected from the
| accomplishment of any similar under
| taking.
MIGRATION OF RACES.
| The chief energies of the Institution
will primarily be devoted to the solu-
| ton of chronological questions. The
origin and migration of the various
races of man inhabiting the vast region
to be explored, are matters whose solu-
tion would illuminate the evolution Of
! civilization and the condition of the
human family anterior to written his
tory or the records of reliable tradi-
ton Intermingled with the elucida-
tion of these perplexing problems are
many other questions affecting the in
habitants of the Pacific which must
be satisfactorily solved before COM
plete history of the human race can
be attempted
Of nearly equal Importance with
chronological matters, and centering
around them, is the work of compiling
a complete record of the data that can
yet be gathered concerning the zoology
and botany of this vast ocean realm.
The knowledge which will thus be ac-
qufred will materially assist in a
affecting the origin of species and their
development and evolution. The work
which has already been achieved in
the Pacific by such great naturalists as
Darwin has been greatly instrumental
in formulating and developing the
great modern doctrine of evolution. In
this way the work of the naturalist
in the Pacific has directly stimulated
modern research and greatly assisted
the progress of mankind.
WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE.
To collect the whole OF available Pa
cific lore and to make it so available
to the scientific worker that its innu-
merable data can be investigated and
compared, the assistance of scientific
workers in many departments of nat
ural history must be invoked. The
ocean itself must be made to yield the
secrets of its currents. These together
with the winds of this vast region have
no doubt played a great part In the
distribution not only OF the more hum

WILD AND WOOLLY

The Pioneer Day Exhibition Brings Out Pick of

Events on Program.

Wild West Day at the baseball park
yesterday afternoon was enjoyed by
everyone except the steers, while even
they had their little. season of fun as
they fooled the pick of the cowboys of
Hawaii sent out against them. Forty
dashing COW punchers rode and roped;
sombreros tapped about the ears Of
maddened bucking bronchos as they
plunged and writhed to rid themselves
of the impertinent bipeds who essay
ed to ride them; astonished calves felt
themselves seized upon by hilarious
creatures with hairy chaps, giving
themselves up to be butchered to make
a Honolulu holiday, and greasy piglets
played the football in a grand scrim-
mage of two score grasping boys.
Despite the rainy weather and the
fact that the muchIy heralded cham
pion roper of the world, Angus Nc
Phee, did not arrive IN time to enter
the contests, the attendance at the
grounds was good, the grandstand and
bleachers being well-filled, while ii is
expected that an even better attend
ance will be out this afternoon to wit
ness the conclusion of the roping and
broncho busting contests and the hold
up of the stage by the Indians. Nc
Phee will be himself also and will ex-
hibit his skill as a roper.
The roping yesterday would have
been much better had the steers not
been rope wise. These animals have
evidently been up against the game
often enough to know what to do when
the rope falls and cowboy after cow
boy circled the critters trying to throw
them while the animal pivoted with his
head to the galloping horse and won

The corporate organization of the Pa
clfic Scientific Institution is now COM
plete. A meeting of the trustees was
held yesterday afternoon at o'clock
in the directors room of the Bank of
Hawaii. The charter of Incorporation
as it was granted by Treasurer A. ].
Campbell and Acting Governor E. A.
Mott-Smith was formally accepted.
Bylaws in accordance with the char
ter were adopted, and officers elected
and committees appointed.
The officers of the Board of Trustees
are: Chairman. Governor Walter F.
Frear; vice chairman, l. A. Thurston;
secretary, President A. F. Griffiths Of
Oahu College; treasurer, Richard H.
Trent.
William AIanson Bryan, who con-
ceived the undertaking of the great
work the Institution is created to carry
on, and who formulated its plans, was
chosen president of the Institution. On
accepting the appointment he made
report which showed the very substan-
tial support the undertaking has al
ready received from influential citizens
in Hawaii. In fact the gifts to it which
have already been practically made,
when they are announced. will chal-
lenge interest by their munificence.
oBJECT OF THE INSTITUTION.
The main object of the Pacific Scien-
tific Institution will be to organize,
equip. and carry out complete scien-
tific exploration of the Pacific Ocean
and of its two thousand islands. The
Importance of this work has long been
recognized by scientists, but its extent
and cost has, until now, appalled,.
The isolated portions of the Pacific
are not only the least known and least
explored of any of the globe, but the
scientific investigation of its mysteries
IS among the most important work yet
TO be accomplished. and its successful
achievement VIII result In knowledge
