HONOLULU.
CRUISER OFFICER WHO LONGS TO
BE BACK WHERE THE QUINTETs
PLAY.

Honolulu made a deep impression
with the Big Fom squadron, as witness
the following extract from letter
written by one of her younger officers
to a Honolulu acquaintance: Although
l am subjected to the blues at present
on account of leaving Honolulu, can
hardly realize that l have been there,
though l had a splendid time. Yet it
seems only like a dream, yes, like
dream of heaven How sorrowful to
be awakened and find myself where l
am. The music of Hawaii, so simple
and so very sweet, had a tremendous
effect on me. Fverytime I close my
eyes in the rustic and hustle on board
ship imagine I hear the echo, which
makes me have a longing as If Hawaii
were my home. l haven't had a full
nights rest since I heard the quintet
at the Seaside. l have made up my
mind to return to Hawaii shortly after
my time expires, May 10, 1908. I ex-
pect to be en- route to Honolulu by the
latter part of July or early part OF
August. Honolulu is called the Para
disc of the Pacific and I must say it
is properly credited with the name.
The person who christened it as such
was no fool nor feeble minded maniac. D."
Private portions of the letter re-
ferring to various members of the
West Virginia's company would indi-
cate several cases of love at first sight,
and the fact that the letter-writer
thinks of returning may mean a soft
spot in his own heart for something
besides music.

SCHOOL
CONTRACT
LOCAL BUILDERS DON'T WANT
TO CONSTRUCT SCHOOL FOR
SUM AVAILABLE.

Only one bid was submitted for the
building of the new High School build
ing for Honolulu, up to the time set
for the opening of the bids at noon
today in the Offices of the Public
Works department. This bid was
made by w. c. Chalmers, and is for
S55.371. The time asked for the con-
struction is 27O days, and the offer
was accompanied by certified check
in the sum of $4,000
Although there was but one bidder
there was a number of contractors
present when the time for opening
came. to see what was done. Most of
them expressed surprise that there
was any bid, owing to the fact that
they had not been able to see their
way clear to bid within the limits OF
the appropriation which is $56,177
Even Mr. Chalmers bid as it stands
cannot be covered by the appropria-
ton, when added to it is the 81 per-
cent for architects fee and possibly
IL percent for superintendent. How
ever there are a number of things
specified in the bid which may be eli
minated, so that it will possibly come
within the amount named.
One prominent contractor who was
present afterwards showed figures
which he had made on the job, which
were 1852, 489.
OF course the building of the school
house is conditional on some arrange
ment being made to assure the Terri
tory a title to the land, which is a
part of the land acquired through the
Lanai deal, with Chas. Gay, and which
is being contested in the U. S. SUI
preme court at the present time 1t
is possible that this matter will be
settled in the court this fall, and
steps are also on foot to make some
arrangement on the side for securing
the property clear, even though the
Lanai deal should be declared inva-
lid.

detailed story of his dealings with
Wallach, and what led up to his re-
cipes being taken when a recess was
taken until two o'clock.

WALLACH'S libel
CASE ON TRIAL
THE DOCTOR" A POOR WITNESS
AND APPARENTLY INVOLVED
IN CONTRADICTIONS.

The libel suit brought by ]. Lor
| Wallach against George Somma the
barber came up this morning in Pc
lice court and furnished amusement to
many spectators present. r. o. Ma
theson, representative of the Adver
| tiser, and the man who wrote the
| alleged libel of Somma against Wal
ZACH in the edition of October g. was
the first witness called. Matheson' s
testimoney consisted of the interview
he had with Somma the day before
the article appeared in the paper of
the 8. He stated that he had taken
the substance of the interview he had
had with Somma, and had Incorporate
ed it in the so-called libellous inter-
view. One question was asked sew
eTal times, and on which great stress
was laid were the words swindler and
stole, which appeared in the article
of October 5. To the best o.. his men,
DRY Matheson said that Somma had
used words to that effect.
In the examining of Matheson, At
torney Peters referred to Charles Not
ley as Wallachs Business Manager
which caused even the Judge to smile.
Henry Kinney of the Bulletin, Officer
Weed and Mr.. Spencer of the Adver-
tiser were called to answer if they
had read the Pacific Commercial Ad-
vertiser on the morning of October
5, and if they had read the so-called
libelous article referring to Or" Wal

alive.
81 am a qualified voter" were the
words DIR" used as he approach
ed the witness stand Peters was on
his feet and demanded what he meant
by those words. For a moment Wal
ZACH refused to answer, Judge An
drade asked him then what he meant,
and he replied that Peters was one
of his worst enemies, and that he
was going to try and make me out
to be a perjurer, and it was my bad
feelings had against him that made
me say what did"
The famous answer which was used
by Evelyn ThaW when she was on the
stand during the recent trial of her
husband for murder, was used by
Wallach nearly every time, 81 don't
remember"
Peters asked Lor where he had been
living for the best part of his life,
and the answers were conflicting.
The question did you not state before
the United States Court when you
applied for citizenship papers that you
had been in the United States IS
years, Wallach had repeated to him
three or four times and finally answer
ed don't remember"
When asked when he was born, he
did not seem to know.
How long were you in India" was
asked and after a dead silence of at
least 5 minutes, he replied: 81 don't
know. asked if he had ever been
friends with Somma he denied ever
being friendly with him at first, and
then stated that he had become friends
later on with Somma. A number of
questions were then asked the fam
Gus worm Doctor" about his first
becoming interested in Sommas cures
and recipes. At the request of the
court he answered that it was a few
months ago, but how many months
he did not know.
SOmma was next called to the stand
and told the court how Wallach had
