SEWALL'S MASTER
IS VERY UNLUCKY
THE CAPTAIN OF VESSEL WHOSE
CREW is BELIEVED TO HAVE
BEEN EATEN.

SEATTLE, October 30.-Captain
Gaffney, master of the big sailing ship
Arthur Sewall reported to have been
wrecked near Cape Horn, seems to
have been born under an unlucky star.
Captain Garfney was in charge of the
full-rigged ship Roanoke when she
went down; was master of the Susque-
hanna when that vessel foundered;
commanded the IroquOis when she
went on the rocks and took the Ken
ilworth into Montevideo in a leaky
condition.
The Sewall was under charter to
the Pacific Coast Company to bring
5000 tons of Pennsylvania Anthracite
coal to Seattle.

ROAST BARNEY

The Examiner says: Barney Joy
made his last appearance yesterday as
box artist with the San Francisco
team. The big Kanaka celebrated the
occasion by being himself and blowing
up, as per usual, at the critical mo-
ment. Since the race for the flag is
over and the present season is in its
last week, Barney's ascension had ei2-

To add to the gayety of the day
Charley Street and Nick Williams
traded positions. Handsome Charles
has been anything but enthusiastic
about working with the Honolulu lad
throughout the season. Barney has
accused him Of deliberately throwing

more or less fitting that, in Barney

The RECITAL

The Schumann recital given last ey-
ening at the home Of the Kilohana Art
League by the Musical Circle of the
League, was one of the most appre'
ciated entertainments in a musical line
that have been held in Honolulu for
a long time. The attendance taxed the
capacity of the hall, there being prob
ably $50 persons in attendance and it
is safe to say that no one went away
disappointed.
Mrs. Bruce Mackall's rendering of
Schumanns Frauen Liebe und Leben,
or Woman's Love and Life, was the
leading feature of the evening, and
was a very finished effort. Mrs. Mac
kall's voice is admirably adapted to
the sentiment of the beautiful compo-
sitiOn which make up a most wonder
full idealistic portrayal of a woman's
deepest emotions. She sings easily,
| and has great volume of tenderness
and varied expression while the quail
ity of tone is good. Considerable cri-
! ticism was made of the acoustic prop
critics of the hall which probably did
detract from all Of the WORK of the
evening
| Mrs. Mackal was accompanied on
the piano with much skill and sympa-
thy by Miss Clark.
Mr.. E. A. Mott-Smith sang two of
Schumann's most popular compost
tlons-'T Murmur Not" and THE Two
Grenadlers'-in mastery style, and
was accorded hearty applause His ac-
compartment was played by his wife
Mr.. Mott-Smith has a good voice, and
is a well-known local amateur singer
A quintet Of violins played the al.
legro Brillante" in finished manner
and ELECTED much flattering comment
The quintet is made up OF Mr.. W. A
Love, 1st violin; DR.. o. e. Wall, 2nt

Ramus, cello; Mrs. D. Howard Hitch.

Mrs. w. d. Westervelt's piano se.ec-

as to technique and expression. II was

In opening the evening Mrs. w w

which was a careful and analytica

LOWRIE CASE.

The Lowrie VS.. Baldwin, ct al, S400,-
900 damage case, which has been on
in the courts for several weeks, oc-
cupied all the time in Judge Robinson's
court this morning. 1t was up on a
motion of the plaintiff to amend their
bill of complaint, and was urged at
length by the attorneys. Several mo-
tions for introduction of supplementary
affidavits have been submitted by either
side. Thus far the case has been ex-
ceedingly technical, and apparently lit
tie real progress has been made
tons prevail in many of the states OF
this union and have extended to the

Whereas, it appears that balances
due from banks of eastern states are
not being paid to the banks of this

Whereas, it further appears that
this condition has resulted in a tenn
porary lessening of the source of sup

current payments due from California
banks, and that coupled thereto there
has arisen an extraordinary condition
due to the withdrawal of deposits from
such banks; and

CUSY'S remark about my strong

must go back to it. All through
the first ten years of my married
life l kept constant and discreet
watch upon my tongue while in the
house, and went outside and to dis
lance when circumstances were too
much for me and l was obliged to
seek relief. l priced my wife's respect
and approval above all the rest of
the human races respect and ap-
prevail. l dreaded the day when she
should discover that l was but a
whited sepulcher partly freighted
with suppressed language. l was SO
careful, during ten years, that l had
not a doubt that my suppressions
had been successful. Therefore was
quite as happy in my guilt as could
have been if l had been innocent
But at last an accident exposed
me. l went into the bath room one
morning to make my toilet, and care
lessly left the door two or three inches
ajar. 1t was the first time that l had
ever failed to take the precaution of
closing it tightly. l knew the neces-
sity of being particular about this,
because shaving was always trying

carry it through to finish without
verbal helps. Now this time l was
unprotected, but did not suspect it.

A Family of Editors
THE children always helped their mother to edit

belief was well grounded in them that whenever
she particularly satisfactory passage
she would strike it out Their suspicious We're well

to them always had an element of strength in them
which sorely needed modification expurgation,

protests of the children, l often abused my

is THE TIDE OF PROSPERITY

James ]. Hill, the railroad man,
has just been telling things which
are being taken more seriously in
some quarters than he probably ex.
pected. In an interview in New
York he declared that the tide of
prosperity is turning, and added:
"The year 1908 may be hacd and
thousands of men may be out
of work. General policies, of re.
tfenchment are under way. Less
money is to be spent on new works
While l would scarcely call it re.
cession in business, it is more of a
drawing ia. The railroads IN gen
ersl are curtailing their expenses
and placing fewer orders" Many
newspapers are showing a good deal

mendoas maj jority, but the country's
prosperity has been moving up
ward "a higher levels constantly
since then.
The signs of a turning in the tide
OF prosperity are even fewer than
they were in 1879, when Mr.. Hill
was sounding the alarm in shrller
notes than he is now. Our domes
&c and our foreign trade is much
more active in 1907 than it was in
1903. Bank cleanngs are larger
than they were then. Railroad
earrings are greater. The railroads
which have thus far reported, which
represent nine tenths of the
country's mileage, show gain in

After all, in any business or pro-
fession you may name it is not all
smooth sailing All callings have
the ups and downs, their pleasures
and their reverses. The farmer
does not have all sunshine and the
other fellow all the trouble. Life
is a somewhat complex affair. Sue
cess depends mainly on the man be
it farming or other callings. Push
energy and intelligence with econ
omy, will succeed almost anywhere.
If a man likes the work of the
farm and has the necessary industry
and intelligence he can succeed
and be happy. Yet he must be
ready at all times for little unplet.
sand jobs and must be prepared to
see many of his fondest hopes
blighted. The really independent
farmeris to be envied and she uld be
happy But the one who does not
like his calling and shirks the things
that should be done at the time they
are needed and who is bowed down
by debt and scarcely able to meet
the interest, must needs live life
of gloom rather than sunshine.
A farmer must drive his work and
not let it drive him. All things in
season and everything well done,
will make of the farm a success and
pleasant place to live.

SUDDEN DEATH

David J. Campbell, living one
mile west of Leanna, died at his
home Monday morning of some
mysterious ailment that took him off
suddenly.
He came to 'Chanute Friday and
bought at the Brown Pharmacy, a
quart of alcohol, making affidavit
that it was wa red for sick horse.
He and his brother in-law, Geo.
w. Jordan drank of the alcohol and
both become deathly sick. Jord n
is recovering but Campbell died.
There is much talk and specula
ton in the neighborhood over the
matter. Many seem is think that
the alcohol was the cause of the
trouble and the first report that
went out was that it was wood aco-
hol they drank.
Mr.. Brown who sold the material
himself, says that was impossible as
he waited ON Mr.. Campbell himself
and drew the stuff out of the regu-
lar cask from which he has sod
others with no bad effect.
Z here is something very peculiar
about the sickness of These two m n
4 postmortem examination was TO
be held over Cainpbell's remains
Wednesday. This may devel'r
something. We can hardly believe
that as careful as Mr.. Brown is he
could have sold this man wood
alcohol through mistake.
We understand that considerable
of the liquid remained in tn bottle
and this matter can be easily deter
mined. We hope the matter will be
thoroughly Investigated, that no un-
just suspicious may rest against any
one.
