THE FACTS OF HISTORY.

Editor Advertiser: The statement
accompanying the picture of the adobe
house at Lahainaluna, published in the
Sunday Advertiser of this date, that it
is "where the first printing press west
of the Rocky Mountains was set UP Id
1888, does not accord with history.
BY reference to A1exander's history it
will be found that ''the first printing
in Hawaii was done January Z, 1922 =
when impressions of eight pages of a
Hawaiian spelling book were made.
This at Honolulu.
An error is also made in the name of
the first newspaper published west of
the Rock Mountains. This paper, Vol,
/, No. 1, dated February IA, 1884, was
called the Lama Hawaii Iight of Ha-
waii), not ''Ilima Hawaii the trans
lation of which is Glover of Ha-
waii.'' r. C. L.

YACHTSMEN DANCE BY
THE WHISPERING WAVES

a fitting finale to the entertainments
rendered TO the visiting yachtslnen was
the dance given by the Hawaii Yacht
Club at the Moana Hotel last night.
The large dining room was cleared
and the floor was soon undergoing a
system of bright-work polishing from
the soles of many nautical shoes after
the band struck up for the first dance.
There We're many local people pres
ent besides the yachtsmen, but the lat
ter were the favorites and the ladies
gave preference to the jolly amateur
tars who leave this morning on their
voyage back to the Coast.
All the visitors were delighted with
the dance and expressed themselves as
particularly pleased with the effect of
the colored lights and decorations. In
the balmy air of Honolulu they found
an added delight to the pleasure Of
dancing, for it is something new to
most of them to be able to walk along
the shores of whispering ocean with
the glamor and mystery of tropical
night around them.

WHITE GIRLS FOR CHINESE DENs

CHICAGO, July 15.-Twenty-seven
white girls have been kidnapped and
sold into white slavery among the Chi
nese residents of Chicago through a
clearing house organized for such traf-
fc, according to reports made to the
police today. Many of these girls are
daughters of refined families, and all
are now voluntary or involuntary in
mates of Chinese dens. Pending efforts
to find and rescue the young women,
the police refuse TO reveal their names.
The wholesale marketing of young
womanhood was made public through
the arrest of Sam Gee and Gee Fong.
Their accuser, Isabel Held, seventeen
years old, amid sobs and tears told a
story to Lieutenant Joel Smith which
convinced that official that a clearing
house for white slave traffic was in his
precinct.

LONDONDERRY MAN
NO DAVID HARUM
Went to Boston Tuesday to Buy Some
Horses and Came Home "Stung"
for the Sum Of s200-Game
Worked by City sharps.

Benjamin Beattie of South London.
derry was feeced out of $500 in Bos.
ton Tuesday by a crooked horse trade.
In company with Robert Kirkwood of
South Londonderry. Beattie left Brat.
tleboro Monday night for Boston for
the purpose of purchasing some horses.
Tuesday morning at a well known
sales stable in that city Beattie bought
five horses, two pairs and single
horse, and was TO pay si00 for them.
| He deposited 5000 in checks and was
TO send the remaining 500 when he
got home. Both young men waited
around the stables for some time in
the belief that papers were being
drawn up creating mortgage on the
horses for the remaining Sl00.
After an hour or two stranger ap.
peared and inquired of the men from
South Londonderry if they we're the
buyers of the five horses, aid learning
that they were the stranger with
show of much regret said that he was
very sorry that he had not been pres.
ent as he would never have allowed
his men to sell such worthless horses
at such n price. "They are no good, y
said the stranger, "and if you do not
believe what / say, | will hitch them
up and show YOU. Three of the horses
are 'whistlers' and the other two are
worthless, One pair was given a
short try.out and before they had re-
turned one horse was just able to
stand and the other would have drop
ped if driven two rods further. The
new owner was thoroughly discouraged |
at the way he had been taken in and |
exchanged the five horses for a pair |
that looked to be of great deal more
worth. For this pair he was to give
$3.50, and he made ont another check
for $50 to complete payment. The
horses were placed in the stalls and
left there subject to Mr., Beattie S call.
Thinking that it would be cheaper
and pleasanter to drive home Mr..
Beattie fastened to the railroad sta
tion in the hope of obtaining an auto.
mobile guide. When he returned for
his horses he discovered that he had
again been tricked, other borses hav
ing been left in their stead. Wild with
such deception Beattie rushed out for
a policeman who returned with him to
the stables to ascertain the exact con-
dition of affairs. Several men, how
ever, in the employ of the statesmen
,wore that the horses had not been
changed and that they were the ones
he unhappy purchaser had bought.
Threats and entreaties were of no
wall and Mr.. Beattie with Mr.. Kirk i
wood returned to Brattleboro Tuesday
light. |
One of the checks for $3.50 was {
lrawn on a Brattleboro bank and pay
nent was stopped. The other two were '
ashiers' checks. The matter has been |
,laced in the hands of A. +. Schwenk 4
