AS reported in yesterdays Adver-
tiser. the runaway Chinese crook, Chu
SEQ, was captured near Kahana, on
windward Oahu, above Renken's place.
by a Hawaiian and a Chinese, on Mon
day night, while he was busy smoking
opium Renken telephoned to Sheriff
Iaukea, High Sheriff Henry and Chief
Of Detectives Taylor that he had the
man in custody, and asked what he
should do with him. Chief Taylor,
after satisfying himself that the pris~
ken to take the man over to KaneOne
and hand him over to the jailor. Tay-
Tor prepared to go across the Pail in
a buggy before daybreak and bring the
prisoner back.
Meantime, High Sheriff Henry
thought it advisable TO get Chu SEQ
at once, as he placed little faith In
the Kaneohe Jail as a place of deten>
ton for such an able criminal as Chu
SEQ, knowing it to be a very weak
structure. He drove to Kaneohe,
where the prisoner was delivered to
him, and he brought the man back to
town and turned him over to Taylor.
The reward goes to the men who cap
tured Chu SEQ, the Hawaiian and the
Chinese.
Chu SEQ states that he got out OF
the police station about the middle of
June between and o'clock in the
evening. Turnkey Melanphy had taken
a port1o1IpSa ont of the cell leaving
the cell unlocked. Chu SEQ saw his OPP
portunity and slipped out. Later. when
he saw the turnkey lock the cell, he
concealed himself and says he effect

FORT SHAFTER
WAITS FOR WATER

Fort Shafter, Kahauiki, will not have
its water supply plant in operation for
six or seven months yet. Until then
the garrison will continue to be de-
pendent for its domestic water supply
upon two tanks served by a small gas
oline engine. Although the artesian
wells were bored, as well as mains and
hydrants installed, before the buildings
had been completed, the system had to
await the placing of the pumping ma
chinery, which, it is said, will not be
done for the time already mentioned.
There has been some talk of making
temporary connection, in the mean
time, with the city water works, for
the purpose of more adequate fire pro-
lection to Fort Shafter, but no definite
action would appear to have been
taken in this matter. No doubt the
military sentry duty of such place
is in itself a considerable means of
protection from all dangers.

FINE EXHIBITION
Of DAINTY CHINA

About seventy-five china-painting en-
thusiasts responded to Mrs. ]. L,
More's invitation to view the work
done during her recent visit to the
mainland. over sixty pieces, each diff
ferent, and few even in the same style,
spread on seven daintily-covered ia,
bles, make good display. BY special
request, the exhibition will be open
each afternoon of this week from two
until SIX o'clock.
Two pieces that are attracting spe-
cial attention are the two stems done
in underglaze, the latest fad in
ceramic art. A huge punchbowl in
grapes, with a border in conventional
design, is one of the most prominent
pieces. Two vases in figure designs of
Morning" and "Poppies'' and several
quaint flower holders in roses met with
much praise.
Mrs. More was assisted in SERVING
the buffet tea by Mrs Walter Combe,
Mrs. 7. Creighton and Mrs. Graham.

CHU SEQ BROUGHT TO TOWN
AND SAFELY LODGED IN JAIL

passing through the station doors and
through the receiving station. The
police disbelieve this statement and
are certain that marks on the station
wall were made by Chu Seo's toes az
he climbed over. Chu SEQ went to Ka-
lfhi Valley and secreted himself in the
house of Portuguese. He walked to
Aiea, caught a train to Kahuku and
then went to the Chinese camp at
Laie plantation, where he was con-
cealed by his uncle, one of the labor
ers. Chu SEQ left the camp the day
before Chief Taylor and officers ar
rived there. He was a day ahead of
them all the way to Kahana, wher&
the trail was lost.
Last Friday officer Apana went to
Koolau by way of the Pail and traced
the man to Punaluu. Chu SEQ was
concealed by a Chinese in the place
where he was eventually captured. Let
tiers found on him indicate that he had
friends in Honolulu assisting him. To
one he addressed a request for a loan
of SIS. and to the other he told the
names of those who were helping him
in Koolau.
Chu SEQ was brought before Judge
Whitney yesterday morning and
charged with having committed lar
oeny in the first degree, on the ground
that he had stolen jewelry belonging
to Chinese woman at MoanaIua to
the value of $15S. Chu SEQ waived eX-
animation and was held to await the
action of the grand jury, his bond
being set at $500.
Ernest Renken, who informed the
police of the capture and who delivered
the man to the authorities, is an ex-
member of the mounted patrol and now
manager of Mrs. Mary E. Fosters
ranch at Kahana.

multiIudes of girls is want of
proper nourishment and enough
of it. Nowadays they call this
condition by the learned name OF
Anemia. But words change no
facts. There are thousands of
girls of this kind anywhere be-
tween childhood and young lady
hood. Disease finds most of its
victims among them. Some of
them are passing through the
mysterious changes which lead
up to maturity and need especial
watchfulness and care. Alas,
how many break down at this
critical period; the story of such
losses is the saddest in the his

HEAD TAX GOING OFF.
OTTAWA COnt.). July THE $25
head tax which the British Columbia
Legislature is putting on all Japanese
entering British Columbia will not re-
main in force long. The Dominion
Government will veto or disallow it,
as on former occasions, for four rea-
sons. First, a head tax imposition can
only be by statute, and at present Chi
nese are the only people so discrim-
mated against. Second, this cannot be
done according to the terms of the
British japanese treaty Third, many
of the Japanese coming from Honolulu
to Canada are already United States
citizens and consequently free to en-
ter Canada. Fourth, Grand Trunk Pa

SIDELIGHTS ON
JAP QUESTION
Germany PessimistiC on the
Outlook for a Long
Peace.

/ BERLIN, July THE conviction OF
an ultimate conflict between Japan and
the United States appears to be wide
spread in Germany. It is one of the
subjects certain to be referred TO wher-
ever diplomatists and military and
naval officials and others accustomed
10 follow international politics, meet.
The newspapers agree that President
Roosevelt is earnestly trying to satisfy
the japanese requests. They agree also
that Japan asks nothing unreasonable.
They recognize that the difficulties are
the question of race, the economic an
tagonism of the Californians against
the Japanese, and the constitutional
impossibility of Federal coercion.
1t is believed by many that the group
of ruling statesmen in Japan are pre-
pairing 10 fight the United States for
the mastery of the Pacific, regardless
of the San Francisco incidents. The
strategists of the admiralty regard a
naval war between Japan and the
United States as the most interesting
problem of the day. Careful studies
that have been worked out are unfa-
vorable to the United States, because
the American fleet, although of greater
power than that of Japan, would have
to seek a fight in Japan's home waters.
NO JAPS ON FORTIFICATIONs.
All of the japanese working on the
Notifications and around the Olongapo
and Cavite naval stations have been
discharged, including experts who have
been in the service for some years. 1t
is asserted by officers stationed here
that orders for this action came direct
from Washington and were peremptory.
Nhen interviewed, Rear-Admiral
Hemphill and other naval officers de-
MED that any extraordinary prepara-
tions were under way. Men who have
watched the situation here, however,
including those high in official life, be-
lieve that General Wood and Rear-Ad-
miral Hemphill are carrying out plans
to put the defenses of Manila and two
naval stations in the Philip
pine islands on a war basis.
LABOR MEN EXCITED.
BELLINGHAM (Wash.), July 5.-A
special to the Herald from Vancouver,
B. c., says: Labor men of this city and
Province are up in arms over the
threatened invasion of thousands of
japanese from Honolulu. The labor
market is already overstocked and they
will not stand for the coming of such
numbers of Orientals. immigration
records show that $500 have arrived in
British Columbia since January LIST,
most of them from Honolulu.
DR.. Alexander Monroe, Dominion I'm
migration Commissioner, declares the
thrush must and viii be stopped if pos
sible, and that the law will be rigidly
enforced, and that all who can not
qualify will be refused admittance. The |
requisite qualification is the possession |
of $25 cash. Past experience shows |
that not one japanese in ten has this !
amount, and it means that they win !

daughter of ordinary cultivators OF
the soil She is and always has been
in perfect health. Although educated
at the convent schools, she knows
nothing, nominally. of drawing or art

motto trance Fraulein Smitch paints
tie most ravishing pictures. Con
noisseurs pronounce many of these
TO be masterpieces.
Some months ago doctor in
Geneva, wishing to make some hyp-
motto experiments, desired some sub
iects. In particular, he wanted
healthy and robust country maid, one
with the simple, unlearned mind of
The peasant And in this way Jo-
hanna Smitch became one of his sub
iects.
He questioned the girl about her
knowledge of things and found her
greatest ignorance lay along the
INES OF art. ne girl Hdu never le-
ceived drawing lessons. she had never
seen any real paintings except the
few that adorned the walls of her
village church or the whitewashed
walls OF the convent. And, moreover,
she was coior blind She could not
distinguish clearly between blue and
green and violet, or place any of the
shades of red.
AS far as being hypnotic subject
vas concerned, the doctor speedily
found she was an excellent one. He
mt her under the influence and com
handed her to draw picture, one of
those in her village church. Quickly
nd almost perfectly she drew a head
If the Madonna. The doctor provided
.er with a box of water colors. and
ordered her to color the drawing.
This she did most excellently and cor.
,ectly.

Waiting till Clara apparently had for

other night. uttering weird means,
Clara suddenly awoke. and, rushing to

requisite materials for an oil paint

noted paintings to the doctors cham

Under the hypnotic influence Frau

large picture, which included many
figures. She handled the palette and
mixed the colors as If TO the manner
