DEMOCRATS ARE
HUNGRY FOR JOBS
BUT IT LOOKS AS IF CHAIRMAN
KINNEY WAS GOING TO BE A
POOR SANTA CLAUS.

There was a meeting OF the Demo-
cratic County Committee and some Of
the prominent members Of the party
Monday at Democratic headquar-
ters relative to the appointment to po-
sltions in the road department and po-
lice force.
w. A. Kinney, the chairman Of the
Territorial Committee, took a leading
part i'm the discussion. He expressed
the belief that A. p. Taylor of the Ad-
vertiser should be made chief detective
if he could be induced TO accept the
position. Sheriff elect Iaukea also was
agreeable to this appointment. Kim
ney expressed the sentiment that some
of the men on the force should be kept.
The names of a very few of the stall
warts were discussed for office. so the
meeting was far from satisfactory to
the rank and file of the party. Another
meeting will be held this evening
when various applications for jobs will
be considered.
Taylor has agreed to accept the ap-
pOintment,

SUICIDES VICTIM
may NOT LIVE
KALUI IN HOSPITAL WITH THE
CHANCES AGAINST HER RE-
CONERY.

Kalui the Hawaiian woman who was
shot Monday afternoon by the negro,
Charles James who then killed himself,
is in a most critical condition at the
Queens hospital where it is said that
the chances are against her recovery.
Deputy Sheriff Jack Kalakiela is in
vestigating the shooting that may
prove to be murder and then the sui
eide which followed. At present there
is nothing definite in regard to what
aroused the demon in James.
The story is that the negro was in
sanely jealous because of admiration
other men sometimes expressed for his
wife James was a night Waterman
at the railroad depot for several years,
working on Captain Bowers patrol,
and he has time and again been seen
patroling his beat accompanied by the
woman who was his wife. 1t is said
that he was of such a Jealous DISPOSE
ton that he would not permit his wife
to go home and sleep while he was
attending to his duties as night watch
man, but insisted that she go thei
rounds with him, to have her near him
and be able to watch her every act.
On the other hand there are those who
declare that the woman tramped about
with her husband at night through ex-
ceeding love for him; so there are two
Stories the one about as well sub
stantiated as the other, from which the
probable truth may be selected.
Be these things as they may, James
is dead by his own hand and the wo-
man is in the Queens hospital, under
the care of DR.. Judd, with wounds in
her interior occasioned by the bullet
which was withdrawn last night by
delicate operation and "she is holding
her own"
A witness to the tragedy on Liliha
street, two doors above Kukui, was
the ten-year old daughter of the couple
who was terror stricken at the crime
and speechless when the officers ar
rived and attempted to question her.
A neighbor, Nicholas by name, heard
a couple of shots and investigated. He
found the negro dead and the woman
moaning for assistance. 1t was the
morgue for the cOlored corpse and the
hospital, in hurry in the patrol wa
gon, for the wounded Hawaiian wO-
man. There it was found that the bull
let had entered the woman's right side
above the hip and ranged downward
through the abdomen.
Kalakiela swore in a jury which
viewed the dead man and is to meet
again tomorrow night. The weapon
of death was found beside the corpse,
being a 9S-caliber, six-shooter, with
two chambers emptied.

PETERS LAUGHS AT PATTERSON.

PETERS LAUGHS AT PATTERSON.
1.-THE statement made by Mr.. Patter-
son that attempts had been made to
force him to leave the Territory, is
without foundation. Mr.. Patterson
made some complaint to Mr.. Fleming
of the attornuey generals department,
about not being able to get along here
and Fleming replied that he, Patterson
was foolish to hang around Honolulu
under the circumstances. Patterson
was told by Fleming that there GER
tainly was better prospect in San
Francisco than in Honolulu, for me-
chanics. Any insinuation that the at
torney generals department had at
tempted to drive Patterson out of the
territory, is absolutely without found
alton and is ridiculous in the extreme"

HOW DIPHTHERIA IS CONTRACT
ED

One often hears the expression, MY
child caught a severe cold which de-
veloped into dlphtheria," when the
truth was that the cold had simply left
the little one particularly susceptible
to the wandering dlphtheria germ.
When Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is
given it quickly cures the cold and less
ems the danger OF diphtheria or any
other germ disease being contracted.

GOVERNMENT OWNS TARGET ON
 PATTERN SHORE.
Soldiers VIII Ge There Tomerrevv fxoiR Mobfle for Their First Practice.
 First fn the
 State.

H
 Mobile, July 2.-(speciai. )--rhe South Alabama target range. which will be opened tomorrow, July (. at Daphne-on- the-Bay. will be the first permanent rife range to be established in the State.
 The United States Government has not spared expense to make it complete in every detail, equipping 1t with the most modern appliances for developing accurate craftsmanship.
 The range is 1000 yards long, and Is laid 6utson land leased by the Govern ment for five years. If. at the end of that time, the United States desires to purchase 1t. it reserves that right. The range Is equipped with silhouettes, tele- phones and 6 rife pit 200 feet long has been dug The pit is eight feet deep and four feet wide. A two-story house'in the neighborhood of the range has been secured and will be made into a club house for the officers and men of the battalion. It will be large enough to accommodate all of them.
 The range will be opened promptly at 12 o'clock Thursday, when the ua- tional salute is fired all over the coun- try.
 The site across the bay Is ideal. and 1t is expected that much good will re- suit from the excellent facilities for rifle practice, which the men of the 1st regiment will have.
 The local battalion, in charge of Ma jor Hagan, will embark at s:30 o'clock Thursday morning on the Pleasure Bay for Daphne. Colonel du Mont, with Captain Van Liew, Capt. A. E. White, Capt. William E. Mickle and Capt. Jules A. Smith, members of his staff, and the officers of the three Mo- bile companies, will go over on the Pleasure Bay.

PEARLMANRELEASED
CASE AGAINST YOUNG MAN IS DIs-
 MISSED.
Nudge Afford of Mobile Court Holds That Money Secured from J. H. Zuckerman Was
 Merely a Loan.

Mobile, July 2.-tSpeciaL)--A B. Pearlman, the young white man. who recently returned to Mobile to see his sweetheart after having gotten as far as Montgomery on his way to New York to visit his parents, and who was arrested on warrant sworn out by the young mans uncle, J. H. Fucker mani immediately after returning to this city. appeared in the Inferior Court this lmorning to answer the charge of emhezzlement, and the case against him was dismissed.
 Zuckerman, 1t will be remembered, claimed that Pearlman had promised to marry his niece and after getting him (Zuckerman) to stand" for a ring for the young woman. took the ring and left town.
 Pearlman swore in court this morn ing that the money which he paid for the. ring belonged to him and not to Zuckerman, as the latter claims.
 Judge Afford said, in dismissing the case, that even if Pearlman did bor- row the money from Zuckerman, the latter could do nothing more than sue him for the amount, as 1t was only an ordinary loan, regardless of the pur- poses for which the loan was nego- tiated.
 PearIman, it is understood, will re" sume his trip to New York.

Boat Filled With ExcursfOnists But All
 Were Saved.
 New London, Conn, July 2.--While at a moderate rate on her regular trip from this city to Block Island, with a big load of sgNcursionists, the steamer City of LawreRce, in a heavy fog, ran high on Black Rock, a small island about an eighta of a mile off Eastern Point today and stove big hole in her bow. Water poured in and the hold was filled but her position on the rock was such that she could not sink and this afternoon tugs were put to work on her in the hope of getting her off the rocks,
 The City of Lawrence recently took the place of the Block Island in mak- ing daily trips between this place and Block Island and today carried hun. dreds of excursionists, big party com ing from Springfield.
 When the steamer struck. the pas sengers were somewhat frightened, but there was no semblance of a panic, the officers of the boat assuring them that there was no danger. After a short wait the passengers were taken in the steamers boats to Eastern Point. The water at the time was smooth.

FINE HOUSE BURNS
OLD CALHOUN PLACE WAS USED AS
 SCHOOL.
Huntsville Students Had Narrow Es- cape from Fire in the Early MOrning-LOss is Esti-
 mated at @l2,5OO.

Huntsville. July 2.-(SpeciaL )-The old Calhoun residence, one of the his- ! toric landmarks of the old South in this city, and during the last few years the home of the Conder Training School. was burned this morning be- tween 230 and o'clock
 Prot. J. E. Conder. principal, and several of the students of the school were asleep in the building and mar rowly escaped with their lives. The blaze gutted the main part of the build- ing and 1t Is practically a complete ruin.
 The loss Is estimated at $10,000 on the building. insured for $2,OOo and $2,- 500 on the school furniture, insurance being $1,so0. The building iS owned by Captain Milton Humes.
 All of the students were aroused in time to make their escape with a part of their personal belongings. The sweeping destruction wrought by the fire leaves the Conder School without a home.
 The Calhoun building was one of the most interesting structures in Hunts vile. It was many years old and it's history is interwoven with that of this section It was built by a member of the celebrated Calhoun family many years before the war between the States and for time 1t was conducted with feudal magnihcence, the garden which surrounded 1t occupying a city block. The cost of the building alone was $46.O00 to $50,0OO.
 The magnificent old place was de- spoiled by soldiers during the war and 1t was never afterwards restored to it's original beauty. After the war 1t was used as headquarters by the provost guard and later was altered to suit the requirements of Federal court build ing.
 During recent years 1t has been the home of several different schools.

SCOTT AND THOMPSON
THEY HOLD POLITICAL CONFER
 ENCE IN BIRMINGHAM.
state Republican Committee win Meet in Montgomery within Thirty Days--,Factions are stiu Di-
 yfdcd.

sS Birmingham, Ala. July 2.--(Special) IA conference was held here today be- tween Joseph O. Thompson, collector of internal revenue. and Capt. Charles H. Scott. of Montgomery. national Re- publican committeeman. The confer ence was held in the office of Er. Thompson and was attended by sever- al republicans whose names could not be learned. M
 At the conclusion fthe meeting 1t was given out that the state re- publican executive committee would be called to meet in Montgomery within the next thirty days. The exact time has not yet been decided upon but will be left optional with Mir. Thompson. who is chairman of the state republican executive committee.
 Republican politics in Alabama which has been simmering for some time is expected to begin to boil at the meeting of the executive committee of the regular. or administration fac- ton of the party. A meeting of the Davidson faction was held here last week but the expected endorsement of some presidential candidate was postponed, It is thought that the reg ular republican executive committee will not be so backward in its decla- rations but will come out in the open for President Roosevelt for q third term.
 Students of Alabama republican politics are fully aware that present plans embrace the endorsement of the President. and vice president Fair banks Is known to be a good second choice. When the Alabama delegation goes to the national convention the vote of the solid delegation will be in the pocket of President Roosevelt if present indications count for anything.
 The Davidson faction is expected to play for q contesting delegation, but will have to muster additional strength before they can hope to make good.
