More About City Extension.

The Worlds canvas of the pro-
posed territory north of city limits
for the purpose of annexation to the
city discloses the fact that. taking
it as a whole at the present time
is out of the question. Last summer
the same proposition was agitated,
and after investigation I found the
same conditions prevailing as the
World finds now. We believe the
proper solution at the present time
is for the city to annex the territory
lying between the city limits and
Ninth streetbounded on tho west by
Miller street and on the east BY Col
umbia river. According to the can
vas taken last summer and ire
Worlds canvas recently taken, this
territory is favorable. It comprises
about 100 acres of highly improved
property, with actual valuation Of
something like quarter of a mil
lion dollars. 1t was our intention to
bring this matter before the council,
but owing to press OF other matters
and the unsettled condition of the
water proposition 1t was not done.
Now is the proper time for a move
ment to be ins3urated to annex this
district.
The only objection outsiders seem
to have to the annexation idea is
that they assume taxation will be
greater. An examination of the rec
ords shows that the levy does not
vary to exceed two mills, and should,
if the city is properly governed, be
less inside the city than outside in
time to come. Our city levy this
year was six mills. The road levy
made outside of the city limits we
understand was five mills. There
fore, the difference was only one mill

MEMOR|A WINDOW
To DR.. WETMORE
yillafuerte (death)

A most beautiful and impressive Ger,
emony was held in the Foreign church
at Hilo, Sunday, September l. when
a handsome memorial window was un-
veiled in honor of the late DR.. C. H.
Wetmore.
DR.. Wetmore, it will be remember
ed, was missionary physician, the
memory of whose beautiful influence
and good deeds still lives in the. hearts
of many of Hiio's older residents.
Arriving in the islands in 1S49, he
settled at Hilo, and soon, by his ex-
treme love for children, drew a class
of young people around him, and de-
lighted TO lead and encourage them
along educational lines.
DR.. Wetmore was one of the prin-
cipal founders of the Foreign church
at Hilo, and throughout his life was
its mainstay. 1t is fitting that a me-
mortal to him should be placed where
he lived and wrought.
This stained-glass window is the gift
of the Lidgate family and the curtain
drawn by Mr.. A. Lidgate revealed a
PASkaAS OOoAkhui anu ialS. IL
represents the good Samaritan as hs
bends solicitously over the almost life
less body of the man who was the VIC
tim of thieves. The expression on the
good Samaritan's face is a beautiful
one, and the picture is typical of the
life of the friend in whose memory it
was given.
The memorial ceremonies were open
ed by a short talk by Rev. c. E.
Shields, pastor of the church.
The presentation address was then
made by Rev. ]. NJ. Lidgate Of Kauai.
who told with feeling of his intimate
association with DR.. Wetmore and Of
the pleasure and benefit he had de-
rived from such an association.
Hon. F. S. Lyman then responded for
the church and Rev. C. w. Hill spoke
in the name Of DR.. Wetmore's family.
two of his daughters-Dr. Frances
wetmore and Mrs. Lucy Wetmore
Lewis-being present the the time
1t is not an uncommon thing for
memorial windows to be given by ones
relatives, but it is rare thing for a
man to so entwine himself around the
hearts Of his friends as to create in
them a desire to make a lasting testi-
mony of their esteem for him.
1t speaks we'll for the life and work
of DR.. c. H. Wetmore that he should
deserve such a memorial. 1t also
speaks we'll for the Lidgate family that
they should so show their appreciation
and love.

NEW GUNS FOR
THE COLORADO

Army and Navy Journal.-Four new
eight-inch guns for the U. S. S. Colo
rado were shipped from the Washing
ton Gun Foundry on August 16 to the
navy yard at Puget Sound. Bremen
ton. Two OF the eight-inch guns of
the Colorado burst near Cheefoo, Chi
ma, while the vessel was at target
practise, as we have mentioned previ-
ously. 1t is also the intention to re-
place some of the guns on other ves-
sells of the Navy with stronger ones,
as the occasion offers. The new guns
for the vessel are hooped to the muz-
zle to better stand the srnokeless pow
der charges. For some time the Bureau
Of Ordnance has been considering the
advisability Of replacing the old types
of gun, which were built before 1901.
when smokeless powder was adopted.
Accidents to the battleships Iowa and
the Colorado convince the officials that
the old types of gun were not safe
when used with smokeless powder. II
was then decided by the Bureau Of
Ordnance to replace these guns by late
models in the near future. The Colo
RADIO has been ordered to Bremerton
for oyerhauling.

A D|VORCEE WHO
IS QUICKLY WE'D
(From Saturdays Advertiser.)

(From Saturdays AdvertiSer.)
Mrs. Jennie E. Stackable, until last
Friday the wife of E. R. Stackable,
was yesterday afternoon married to F.
NJ. Bechtel, who was formerly at the
head of the immigration bureau at this
port, and who for the past year has
been in the employ of the Pacific Mail
Company at Yokohama.
Mr.. Bechtel arrived here by the
steamer Korea yesterday morning.
During the forenoon a license author
izing the marriage of the two was is
sued by Tonizo Katsanuma, an agent
to grant marriage licenses, and in the
afternoon the marriage was performed
by the Rev. E. B. Turner, being al
most his last ministerial act before go
ing to his new field of labor, Paia,
Maui
It is not known whether the mar
riage was planned before the arrival
of the Korea and the groom yesterday.
or not The groom had left Yokohama
several days and was in the middle
of the ocean before the divorce, which
made the marriage possible, was grant
ed. But, whenever the marriage was
planned, Captain Sanberg of the Korea
had been informed by noon that it was
TO be, for he told some local friends
that Mr.. Bechtel was to be married,
though he did not say whom he was go
ing TO marry.
But, whenever it was planned, the
marriage occurred early yesterday af-
ternoon, and shortly after 8 o'clock the
newly-married couple went aboard the
Korea, both departing for San Fran
cisco by that steamer. It is understood
that Mr.. Bechtel expects to go into
business there unless he succeeds in
getting back into the immigration Ser
vice, which it was reported from Yo-
kotama some time ago that he was
trying 10 do.
Mrs. Stackable's libel for divorce was
filed last Friday afternoon. An i'm
mediate hearing was had before Judgs
De Bolt and a decree of divorce was
granted By the decree Mrs. Stackabls
was allowed lump alimony Of $4,000, but
the custody of their child, girl OF
seven, was given to the father.
It was thought by some, when they
heard of the marriage and the proposed
departure of the newly-married couple.
that Mrs. Stackable might try to take
her daughter with her But there seems
no evidence Of any attempt or desire
to do this, and in any event 1t would
have been impossible. as the child was
in the company Of its father all day.

Filipino Leaders Who
Ordered Torture
for Prisoners.
Montalan (death)

Death by hanging for four bandit
leaders. imprisonment for thirty years
for another and for twenty years for
five others, are the sentences passed
in Manila by the Supreme Court on
July 25 on the surrendered leaders who
for so long terrorized Cavite, Batan-
gas and adjacent provinces. These
bandits, through their lawyers, plead
ed for clemency from the fact that
they surrendered voluntarily TO the
American authorities, but it was
pointed out by Chief Justice Johnson
that such surrender was only on the
guarantee that they would not be i'm
mediately shot but would be given s.
fair and impartial trial.
In answer TO q further plea that
what acts they had committed had
been from patriotic motives and in de-
fense of the rights of the people OF
their country, the Justice read series
of letters, put in as evidence against
them, showing the cruelty practised
and ordered to be carried out by them
in their revolt. One of the letters was:
"Senor Pho del Pillar, Major General.
Upon receipt of this order, please
comply with the same and direct the
troops TO enter the town of Teresa
and carry out the following:
list: Get all foods, such as palay,
which you can carry, also take the
money in order TO defray the expenses
of our soldiers and the war.
'.2nd: Arrest the Consejal. Memi-
mino Grebillos, and all persons con-
cerned with him in arresting our COM
missioners and as soon as arrested
carry out on them the punishment
provided in Order No. 9, April 10. 1904,
providing that the tendon Achilles shall
be cut and the fingers Of both hands
crushed.
''Srd: Should the townspeople offer
resistance to the troops, burn all the
houses without showing mercy to the
inhabitants.
All the provisions of this letter have
been passed on by the Supreme Junta
on account of the treachery committed
by the inhabitants of Teresa to our
commissioners.
"(Signed) MACARIO SAKAY.
"P. S. In this connection would
warn you that before entering the
town Of Teresa plan must be devised
so as not to expose our soldiers"

CHR|ST|ANsON's
TWO STOWAWAYs

The good clipper barkentine Irrn-
gard. now in port from San Fran
cisco. changed masters UP lin the
city" Captain W. A. Christianson.
formerly for some years in the IL. S.
n. Co.'S service In Hawaiian waters
succeeded Captain Smith. The Irmgard
came down in twelve and half days.
She had full load OF freight and one
passenger-Henry Steiner. son OF Jas.
Steiner of Honolulu.
Captain Christianson reports that
when three days out the Irmgard en-
countered a strong southerly current.
This Kept increasing in strength until
Honolulu was made the night of the
1st inst. 1t showed the Irmgard in one
day out of her course by thirty-thrse
miles north. Captain Christianson will
report this current TO the U. S. Hydro
graphic Office. After comparison of
notes with other shipmasters, he be-
lieves it to be a recurrence of the cur
rent to which the stranding OF the P.
Nj. S. S. Manchuria, about one year
ago. has been attributed. According to
CohsehsuS OF mariners opinions this
southerly current is regarded as one
of annual periodicity.
Another incident of the Irmgard's
voyage her master says is something
that has never before happened on
board vessel between the Golden Gate
and Honolulu In San Francisco har-
Dor four sparrows came aboard the
barkentine. Some ways out two of the
birds became missing. The two other
sparrows, however. stayed by the yes
sci all the way down. They fed regu-
larry on the deck and were great pets
with the. ships company. On arrival
Captain Christianson facetiously re-
ported his little feathered passengers
to the quarantine doctor as stow
aways"
