night, leaving Pensacola at 10 o'clock,
and was yesterday located in Atlanta
where she was taken into custody by
the police, upon request of relatives
in this city.
The girl gave no intimation of her
Intentions, and it was only through
some questions she had asked mem
bers of the family that il was sITs-
piciOned that she had gone to Atlanta
She asked brother Wednesday after
noon the distance to Atlanta and the
amount of fare, but it was not thought
for moment that she intended run
ming away, so no attention was paid
to her.
Early yesterday morning, however,
she was missed from home, and the
family Immediately remembered what
the girl had said regarding Atlanta.
They requested Sheriff Van Pelt to
telegraph the Atlanta officials and ask
that she be apprehended and held IN
til an officer could reach there for her
Late in the afternoon a reply was re-
ceived stating that the girl had been
taken into custody as she left the
train at the depot, and would be held
until an officer arrived from Pensa-
cola.

Schley is not merely an officer with

from that he has held a number of

There Is no doubt that the proposed
promotion of Schley, who is now a
rear admiral of the retired list, will

Admiral Schley has not been ap-

Washington, April 29--Admiral
Winfield Scott Schley will be offered
the secretary ship of the navy in case
William J. Bryan is elected president.
II viii be the first time in history that
any naval officer has received this 20
sitioD. The position of secretary OF
the navy has always been more or
less a joke. The department has been
run by the bureau of navigation and
the secretary has not been much more
than a chief clerk who registers the

department for years, first under one
president and then under another.

is no one who combines the neceS-

officer and of having reform ideas so
completely as does Schley.

AN AMERICAN CITIZEN

There is something of a squeal
among contractors for the reason that
Japanese have been employed by Cap
tain of Engineers Otwell to remove the
old light house in the general scheme
of deepening, widening and improving
the harbor.
Reference to Captain Otwell causes
the situation to be Illuminated in the
following facts:
Captain Otwell called for bids and
received several. The lowest was that
OF a Japanese contractor. The next
lowest was for five times the amount
for which the Japanese offered to do
the work.
It is lighthouse work and lighthouses
are for the benefit Of navigation, for
international navigation and therefore
Of international benefit Lighthouse
work has several marks of difference
from fortfcation work. What would
be done in a case Of fertilization work
has nothing to do with the present
case. The present case is a lighthouse
case, a case Of international interest,
and the various nationalities were well
come to bid and the japanese have the
job and It Is whispered that Captain
Otwell will fight It out on these lines
II It takes all summer.
There are long lines Of pretty flags
attached to poles running on the Eva
side of the harbor makal, beyond Rot
ten Row, and also on the reef and
waterfront people are wondering con-
cerning their use. These are range
stakes and are used to gauge the posi-

TWO MORE
STEAMERS
FRENCH LINE HAS ADDED TO THE
STEAMSHIPS CALLING HERE
FROM THE ORIENT.

Theo H. Davies & Co., local agents
for the Chargeurs Reunis, the round
the-world French line whose vessels in
nearly every case are named after adj
miras of France, are in receipt of ad-
vices from the company's headquarters
to the effect that within few months
two large new steamships will be put
on a new run including Honolulu, in
dependent Of the circumterrestrial
route.
The new line will be established
between Kobe, Yokohama, Honolulu,
Mexican ports and Puget Sound and so
back to Japan.
These boats will call at Honolulu
from Kobe and Yokohama but will
probably take the great circles route
from Puget Sound ports home to Japan.
The local agents have not yet been
advised as to whether the new ships
will carry passengers, nor are they at
present informed in regard to the
schedule to be maintained.
The new line means slight competi-
tion with the Togo Kisen Kaisha for
Oriental freight for Honolulu, for it Is
thought that the French company will
endeavor to leave Japan full-loaded
for Mexican ports and the stop at
this port will be chiefly for coal, land

WANTS "OPEN" TOWN
EX-MANAGER CHILD OF THE ROYAL HAWAIIAN HOTEL IS EN-
THUsAsTC OVER TOURIST ATTRACTIONS HERE, BUT THINKS
LAWS ARE STRINGENT is GOING DO
GUS HUsTLING FOR HONOLULU

Edwin o. Child, who has been man
ager at the Hawaiian for some time
back, left this morning on the Ala
media for the Coast, where he will es-
tablish tourist headquarters in every
city of size from Vancouver down to
Los Angeles The main headquarters
will be in Los Angeles, where every
thing in the way of literature concern
ing Hawaii will be on hand for those
who are thinking of making the trip
down here.
Just before the steamer left Mr.,
Child made the following statement:
Il am going to get tourists down to
Hawaii and if | don't it will not be my
fault, as l intend to make the name
Hawaii as famous on this coast as
Monte Carlo is to the people on the
Atlantic seaboard. There is no place
in the world like Hawaii, and ] do not
see why people do not come in larger
numbers, and that is the reason why
am going away to try and get them.
They can be had with a little hard
work and | think I am safe in saying
that it will only be a short time before
