A BOLD FRAUD DISCOVERED.
swindIine Game Perpetrated on Bryan
People in July Disclosed.

The preparation of a bold swindle
early in July in which number Of
Bryan people suffered has been laid
bare in letter received by Mr.. E. b.
Lomax a day or so ago. In a number
Of instances citizens contributed to
what was believed at that time to be
good and charitable object but
which investigation now proves to
have. been rank deception and opera
ted wholly with dishonest motives.
On a date in the month named plau-
sible talking and respectable looking
negro came to Bryan, and represent
ing himself to be an agent of the Gil
mer colored orphanage, made the
rounds of the prominent places in
town and by an effective story of the
needy condition of the institution, Sc
cured cash contributions varying from
small amounts to quite substantial
sums He also arranged with several
to take children for household work,
obtaining their fares to Bryan in ad-
vance. The boys and girls placed
were to have reached here several
days ago, and their non-arrival
aroused suspicious which eventuated
in an investigation being instituted.
DR.. ]. NJ. Mcfarland who has charge
of the orphanage, was communicated
with, and the fraud was promptly de-
yeloped, but not before numerous
charitably disposed people had been
made victims. The swindler is now
under arrest in some point in the
State, and the evidence against him is
absolute and conclusive.

JAPANESE OPINION

Upon reading the information given
by the American railway companies to
the American traders announcing that
on and after November LIST no goods
to and from the Orient would be dealt
with by them, the Mainichi Dempo
expresses surprise, not because Japa-
nese trade will be jeopardized but be-
cause the Americans will be caught
in their own trap. The above an
nouncement will, if carried out, des-
troy the American shipping business
in the Pacific which has hitherto been
regarded as future competitive field
for commerce and navigation. Frank
ly1speaking, the action of Americans is
more extraordinary than that of any
other people. The American Gov
eminent is going to enlarge its navy,
especially in the Pacific, but the Anne
rican navy will be of no practical va
lue if it is not to shadow merchant
men.-Japan Gazette.

UNDERGROUND
TRIP OF CHILD
THRILLING ADVENTURE OF FIvH
YEAR-oLD SON OF EDITOR COKE
OF MAUI NEWS.

WAILUKU, August 29.-Ellis Coke,
son of Hugh Coke of the News,
was playing with his twin brother
and the eldest son of Rev. Canon Ault
lust below the Enos store in Waikiki
Wednesday morning when he and
Ralph Ault tried to get a cocoanut
that came down the underground
flume at great speed. At the vent
where the children were playing the
flume is open and a constant menace
to the safety of the many children
here. The child lost his balance when
reaching for the nut and fell head
first into the flume. He was carried
instantly under the sidewalk and
down HE underground fiume thatt
is covered for a distance OF over
three hundred and forty feet. Part
of the way the flume is. underground
and very narrow. There was great
rush of water at the time and an I'M
usually full head of water. The child
Instantly Strengthened out and threw
his arms over his head. His play
mates gave the alarm and Police VI
ficer John Fereira tore up the plank
ing above in the hope of finding the
lost child. He was joined by w. T.
| Robinson. Antoine Do Rego and 9TH
ers, but while they were searching
the child was washed out below
distance of exactly three hundred
and fifty-two feet from where he fell
in. Hhis cries attracted Mrs. Rod
rigues who sent Albert Decker out to
see what was the trouble. He at
once pulled the child out of the fiume.
The child was badly bruised about
the forehead. mouth and base OF the
head and scratched up about the
knees, but to the establishment OF all
was able to stand alone.
The flume is about ten by Twelve
inches and has a Uniform fan of six
per cent and as it was nearly full OF
water at the time rome could see how
the child could possibly go all of the
distance he did at such great speed
without being either killed or drown
ed
At one place in front of the Bis
mark Stables a gate is in the hume
and three inch timber bars the way.
The flume here is underground and

The child is but five years old but
unusually strong and active. Two
hours after his experience he went
to lunch and played about the lawn
, all afternoon with other children.
This is not the first narrow escape
from drowning Their but is the frs
instance of a child being washed un

THE GREAT WORK
DONE IN ZAZA''

The work of Virginia Thornton and
the various members of the Lumley
company who are supporting her at
the Orpheum in "Zaza" has raised
this stock presentation of New York's
big success away above the usual
stock standard and set a new mark
for stock players to reach after in
the future.
Miss Thornton shows a capacity for
powerful emotional acting tina had
not been imagined by her most ar
dent Hon lulu admirers previous to
the first production of the play Thurs
day night
"Zaza' was written by David Be
lasco for Miss Leslie Carter and has
been her most successful play. ''Za-
"a" is a wonderfully constructed COM
edy drama of love and life in France.
1t tells in a profoundly human man
ner the story of an actress, love- The
story grips one at the very start, and
so mastery is the playwright's art
that the audience becomes fairly be-
side itself in the emulation of ex-
citing events. A charming picture of
Bohemian life is offorded by the au-
thor, a happy relief to the intense and
searching experience of Zaza and her
lover.
"Zaza" being such an artistic sue
cess, Managers Cohen and Lumley
have decided to run the play the first
three nights OF next week, Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday. Seats now

Peter Lee new volcano hotel propo-
sition. The Mauna Kea is going some
these days in the matter of passenger
transportation. She went up with SO
passengers in her cabin and returned

on the come back. Purser Phillips re-

steel bark ktme. an American ship
is within the shelter or Staten ISL
and She arrived there yesterday, az
ter a voyage Of Ill days, from Port
land Oregon. The trip was replete
with incidents. The stirring time for
those on board really began on the
trip from Kobe, Japan, to Portland,
where she went to load for this port.
Fer seven days the vessel rode a
terrific sea, practically on her beam
ends, with her crew working despera-
tely between decks shifting ballast to
bring the Acme back to an even keel,
So far over did she go that her main
and lower topsail yard arms dragged
in the sea. Captain A. F. Mckay was
obliged to have the crew chop away
the stand rigging of the fore, main and
mizzen top gallant masts with their
yards. s. ae
The Acme is -3,28S tons. one of the
biggest sailing ships under the Ameri'
can flag. Her. crew is American, many
of them having gone to San Francisco
to help rebuild that city. They ship

KEYES MADE HEAD
OF HIGH SCHOOL

OAKLAND, May 15.-Charles E.
Keyes. principal of the Lafayette
school at Seventeenth and West
streets, has been selected as principal
of the Oakland high school, to sue
ceed James II. Pond, who has rendered
his resignation, effective in June, to
take up the practice of medicine
Keyes has been the principal of the
Lafayette school for several years. He
came from Portland to enter the local
educational department. and was at
one time the principal of the Portland,
Ore, high school His selection was
made by the board of education in ex-
ecuttve session tonight and was unani-
nous.
Keyes is highly esteemed in this city
both for his personal and professional
qualities. He has won a. high place in
educational affairs on account of his
excellent administration of the Lafay-
cite school, which for scholarship and
discipline ranks with the best public
schools in the state.
The unanimous decision of the board
to select Keyes was a direct blow at
Bill Dargie and the Oakland Tribune,
which published nasty attack on
Principal Keyes' administration, an at
tack which members of the board de-
clared was utterly unfounded in fact.
1t was said that Dargie was attempting
to influence the board to appoint a
candidate of his own. The scheme
failed completely.
Principal Pond, who voluntarily re-
tires, has held the post for eight years.
He was formerly principal of the Sac
ramento high school.
