JAP WRESTLERS
AT THE COAST

Honolulu isn't the only place where
japanese and white men contest for
supremacy on the mat
a japanese wrestler in san Francisco
has accepted the def of a white Crap
pier and says that he would rather die
than suffer defeat.
Sooner than be defeated by a Eu-
ropean. I would die on the wrestling
mat" is the startling statement made
by Fukamachi who is camping on the
trail Of Leopold McLaglen, the Dublin
mastodon, who claims to have beaten
all corners at jiu jitsu.
Fukamachi is so confident that he
can take the big fellows measure that
he will be satisfied with nothing less
than a fight to a finish. He said:
( I will fight McLaglen to finish for
any side bet he may name Sooner
than be defeated by a European, will
die on the wrestling mat. l would
never give the signal of defeat for the
blood and honor of my country"
McLaglen has offered to meet Jeffries
or Jack Johnson in the ring, he to use
the Oriental style of wrestling and the
latter their own style of defense.
McLaglen is the man who was to
have been brought to Honolulu to
wrestle Hans Froelecher had the Swiss
not left for the Coast. He tips the
beam at 225 pounds and stands six feet
seven inches.
His last opponent was De Raymond.
a Frenchman weighing $50 pounds,
whom he defeated in San Francisco
several weeks ago. Before giving in
the Frenchman sustained a fractured
arm and dislocated shoulder.
McLaglen claims that he has never
been defeated and has credentials
showing a long string of victories In
Japan and British Columbia. In Van
couver $1,000 persons attended his bout
with Kanada whom McLaglen defeated !
in one hour and fifty-eight minutes,
after the Japanese had sustained a |
broken limb.
Jiu jitsu is built upon a scientific |
application of anatomy, a series of |
bone locks which, when once applied |
make it absolutely impossible for an |
opponent to escape. Should the oppo-
nent be stubborn and refuse to give
the signal, the result is usually a
broken limb. In jiu jitsu there are a
series of nerve holds, which act as
to certain bone-locks.
For instance, when a strangle hold is
obtained, the contestant who is being
strangled Immediately grasps his as
sailant by a nerve hold which at once
renders his arms powerless.
Jiu jitsu is supposed to be the oldest
art of weaponless defense in the world,
and at least ten years of hard, con-
scientious study is required in order to
gain perfection in it. 1t is taught only
to the better class of japanese. 1t is
said that a jiu jitsu expert can kill
any other opponent in twenty seconds.

NAVY MEN WANT COTS ASHORE

why doesn't this entertainment
committee get to work on fitting up
places for the men of the big fleet to
sleep ashore while here?'' inquired a
sailor of the U. s. S. Iroquois last
night. 4ttU 81
Continuing, he said: There is Moth
ing that would disappoint the boys
more than to find they have to go
back aboard their ships at night for
want of accommodations ashore. When
the Asiatic Fleet was here in 1903 the
main complaint was that there were
not enough places ashore where the
men on twenty-four and forty-eight-
hour shore leave could spend the night.
They get all of sleeping aboard they
want, you can count on that, and what
they look forward to in port is to be
able to have a bed ashore. I'm sure
they'd be willing to dig up two-bits
or a half for the privilege of having
cot in some vacant store or ware
house with a Waterman at the door to
see that their pockets were not gone
through or their shoes stolen during
the night; somebody on guard, you
know, to give them call in the morn
ing and to look after their effects
while they slept.
when l was in the Orient with the
Asiatic Fleet l remember there were
accommodations arranged for the sail
ors ashore at many places. You can
put in a lot of army cots, using
number of large vacant stores or
warehouses for the purpose, and give
the boys a blanket and pillow and
you will have accomplished something
practical in the entertainment line.
I'm sailor and 1 know what I want
when my ships in port, and the rest
of us want the same"

INFLAMMATORY
RHEUMATISM
Most Treatments Are Unsatisfac-
tory but DR.. Williams Pink
Pills Have Cured So Many
Stubborn Cases That They
Command a Trial.

It is unnecessary to tell the sufferer
the ordinary treatments for this disease
are unsatisfactory.
Physicians are not of one mind on
the subject but the highest authorities
hold that rheumatism is a disease I
the blood. All admit that in attacks Of
rheumatism there is a marked and
rapid thinning of the blood. This is a
condition that a treatment with DR..
Williams Pink Pills at once arrests
and corrects. The thin blood is en-
riched, the strengthened organs of the
body throw off the poisonous impure
ties and the patient gets well.
Mr.. John F. Crichton, retired gro
Ger, of 1887 Fulton street, Chicago, Ill,
and a veteran of the Civil war in which
he served as member of Co. A, Hath
Illinois Infantry, bears witness to this
truth. He says:
81 was afflicted with inflammatory
rheumatism for twenty years and had
received only temporary relief from
the doctors. About three years ago 1
was helpless in bed with it. I could
not use either hand or foot for over two
months and suffered intense pain. My
limbs were swollen and 1 could not
move at all without great pain had
sleepless nights and thoughto1 would
never be able to get around again. My
friends and comrades thought was
going to die.
Il had paid out a lot of money in
doctors bills but was not cured One
day an old war~comrade urged me to
try DR.. Williams Pink Pills as he
knew of cases they had cured. Before
I had taken them a great while,o was
feeling much better. 1 improved rapid
ly and was able to get out of bed and
move around. 1 am now In perfect
health and have not had a touch of
in any part of my body
SINCE"
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are sold by
all druggists, or will be. mailed, post
paid, on receipt of price, so cents per
box; six boxes for $3.50, by the DIR.

BIRD LEAVING
FOR THE COAST

The latest in the boxing situation
is that Private Marsh and Corporal
Bird, both of Co. G, goth Infantry, will
leave for the Coast on the next trans
port to attend a school of musketry
in san Francisco. They will be gone
about six months.
This means that two good boxers
will be unavailable when the fleet
comes. Bird, it was hoped and be-
lieved, would have been able to have
made a good showing with anyone OF
his weight who is likely to come this
way.

ment. states that he will be willing to

OVERTIME IN THE
B|ERCE LAWSUIT

After a days arg ,ment in which
citations were made from at least a
wagon load of law books, Judge De
Bolt yesterday afternoon overruled the
motion of the defendant for nonsuit
In the Bierce case, and the presentation
OF the testimony for the defense be-
gan. j. w. Cathcart was the first wit
ness for the defense and was on the
stand about all afternoon. His testi-
mony was chiefly in relation to the
efforts made by the defendant to re-
turn the railroad which had. been re-
plevIned, to the plaintiff. 1t is the
claim of the defense that as the re-
plevln bond called for them to either
restore the property or pay it's value in
certain contingencies, when those con-
tingencies occurred they tried to re-
store the property to the plaintiff and
the latter would not take it.
In the course of the argument on
the motion for a nonsuit the doctrine
was asserted that the defendants in
their replevin bond had contracted in
view of the fact that at that time
the decisions of the Supreme Court of
the Territory as to the law of the land
were inality But that when, through
the efforts of the plaintiff, the Organic
Act was so amended that the decisions
of the Territorial Supreme Coure were
no longer a finality, that changed the
scope of their contract so as not to
bind them
Both Mr.. Prouty and A G. NJ. Rob
ertson, the attorneys for the plaintiff
want to get away on the China so
expedition in the trial is to be sought
The hearing is to begin at 8 o'clock
this morning instead of 10, and the
noon recess is to be cut down to an
hour, and night session is to be held
if necessary.

The Chamber o. commerce, Honolulu,
Hawaii
Dear Sirs: Your joint cablegram of
yesterday in regard to my coastwise
shipping bill for Hawaii, is received.
Acting on the advice of our friends
in Congress, we have refrained from
pressing this bill during the tendency
of the mail subsidy measure as it was
known that if we did press it, all the
supporters of the shipping interests
would be arraved against it.
At the present time, the Democratic
flibuster totally prohibits the consid-
GRAFTON of any bill by unanimous con-
sent. The only other means by which
such a bill as this can be gotten up
for vote is under suspension of the
rules; this latter requires a two-thirds
majority IN order to pass bill, and 1
am not at present willing to risk de-
feat by one-third vote against my
bill
Many members who would vote
against the bill at present would sup
port it if the other relief is not pro-
vided
If therefore the subsidy bill is finally |
defeated, | think it may be possible to /
get my bill through in the closing days |
of the session.
Very truly yours,

PRINTER BOY, PROMISING
PROPERTY NEAR aoLDFIELD

The Goldfeld Printer Boy company
has let a contract for doing the annual
work on their four claims in the neigh
borhood of Cactus spring. Considerable
work has heretofore been lone on the
group and fairly good values have been
obtained. On one of the claims a good
strong ledge carrying values which
have gone las high as $50 have been OBJ
tanned and which caused the sinking of
a shaft so feet. The annual work is to
be performed on ground which has here
tofore been untouched but from which
splendid surface showings have been
found. A. Keller, who owns numerous
claims a short distance from the
Printer Boy, has the contract, and be-
ing an expert miner, expects to find
something good during his work on the
claims.
On many of the properties adjoining
the Printer Boy valuable lodges were
found during the past summer and the
owners expect that they will surely find
something this winter to encourage
them to continue the work.

The Mazuma Consolidated Mill e.
Leasing company operating the Prior
C%hadbourne lease on Mazuma Hill havc
cut the Reagan vein in the west cross
cut from the $50 level of the mine. The
vein was encountered about 40 feet
from the shaft and drifting both ways
on the vein is in progress. Work is
being pushed as rapidly as possible and
the indications are all most favorable,
says the Seven Troughs District News.
Some of the richest of the Reagan ore
was taken from this level on the Rea-
gan lease and at but a short distance
from the present workings of the Con-
solidated.
The Mazuma Hills Leasing company,
commonly known as the Reagan lease,
is just entering the vein in the cross
cut from the 275-foot level of the shaft.
This work will prove up the Reagan
vein for another hundred feet and will
demonstrate it to be the richest vein
so far disclosed in the district. Prepar-
ations are already under way for extcn-
sive stopping and within a short time
the lease will resume milling and ship
ping.
The mine has been practically at a
standstill for a couple of months as far
as production is concerned, owing to the

however, is taking out over 10000 gal

Every time one makes a visit OF in
spection to the Great Western mine at
Hornsilver, he leaves with al approx
nation of its value considerably en-
HANGED, and frequent visits cause the
query: When will the increase reach
it's limitg says the Hornsilver Herald.
Recently a Herald mar went through
the area of activity on the 200 level
and into the long stope, about 100 feet
in length, from which ore is being ex-
tracted in the immense eastern shoot,
which shoot on this level is known to
be nearly 200 feet in length. The re-
porter was struck by the general
strengthening of the ore body both in
volume and value.
About midway in this stope at ~
feet above the level, the great deposit
of ore is distinctly divided into three
grades. the richest being next to the
hanging wall. The assay of this streak
shows it to yield SOL, in gold and sill
yer. and the streak is a good healthy
one of ten to twelve inches solid. Ad-
Joining is the second grade, carrying
an average value of 1914. Thence TO
the footwall, 8, 10, IL and more feet
distant, is what they term the low grade
stuff assaying $40 to the ton, and a
solid body at that.
Almost throughout the entire length
of this Slope the same general condi-
tions prevail, the high, low and inter
mediate grades are maintained, with a
GRAND average that guarantees a good
profit in handling.
Now the main shaft has reached inc
800 level and night and day the cross
cut is being pushed to enter the VEN.
Euorvtbinp indicates that the drifts on
the 800 level will encounter larger ana
richer ore deposits in the
of the several shoots opened ABOVE
should the same vein ratio OF increase
no maintained between the 200 and ooo
levels as has been proven from the loo
TO the 200 level, the question naturally
will arise:
when will the increasing generai
va,ue of the mine reach its limltf
Al 500 feet, 1000 or 1880 feetf
Tho drifts on the 200 level extend
-. most over 600 feet with ore
continuous and the strike OF the ore
sboots indicate that the same shoots
will encompass greater length OF driits
!, almost continuous ore on the ''o
level. g
Consequently, it is not a question: u
wbether or not the Great Western is a
valuable mine, but the question ieal'y
is: How great is its value and now
,reat will it bef Only depth ana 'a'eia
york will decide the question ana 'he
management will do this developments

result has been that he has opened
up three distinct leads near the top of
the hill.
Sphinx Mine and Mill
Superintendent George Weber of the
Sphinx mill stated that the mill run for
the first half of the current month was
particularly satisfactory but he was not
at liberty to make public the figures in
asmuch as the report is not yet in the
hands of the officials of the company.
The mill is steadily putting through
the regular quota for twenty-four hours
and the grand general average of the
ore now being treated will run between
fifteen and twenty dollars per ton.
Every pound of the ore which is CON-
ing up out of the mine is being put
through the mill and every bit of this
comes from where the men are carrying
on the development work. In other
words nc stopping is being done and the
ore which is at the present time feed
ing the mill comes from the various
drifts, WINES, etc, which are being
opened up for the purpose of explora-
ton.

REJ0ICES OVER
ELECTRIC POWER PROJECT

Mining activity on the east size is
assuming a ~iivclier state ad there will
be some very attractive showings in
thar section before long, says the Mail.
A power p.mping plant arrived in
camp YESTERDAY for the Toquima copper
company and will be put in position at
once at tn company shaft. mae To.
quima Copper company ground lies at
the east end If the Manhattan district,
ard on the west side Of Ralston valley.
The eompaay . main shaft is down IT'S
feet, at which point they encountered
such a body Of water as compelled it to
put in a power pumping plant. At the
175-foot point the company has IL feet
of ore that runs fro 3h to 5 per cent
in copper, and an average of SO to SIS
in gold. The shaft is an incline and
from top to bottom is in ore.
The Hoosier Mining company have
their power plant working nicely and
the shaft is now down over $50 feet. In
sinking this they cut one ledge of low
values, but intend doiag very little level
work until they reach at least the 400
foot point. This ground has fine sur
face showings and strong lodges out
cropping, and it is their present inten-
ton of going to the water level before
doing lateral work.
On Mineral Hill the main shaft is now
down 240 feet and the ground is becom.
ing softer and shows more mineraliza-
ton. Lime spar and quartz seams are
now cutting through the shaft, and it is
thought that they are getting through
the lint or approaching a tedge. The
company did not expect to encounter
ore in the shaft but intend to make a
crosscut to the ledge at the 300-foot
point.
On the Toyabe a drift is being run on
IA inches of ore that will run close to
$15, and the Gre body has widened out
in the last 6 feet in the drift from 10
inches to IA inches.
On the Otero the drift run at the So
foot level is all in ore of an average
grade of about $25.
On the Kismit the patries holding the
lease and bond have opened up the
property in % different places, all of
which pan free gold. In one particular
place they have a feet of ore that will
