MRS. ATCHERLEY
GIVES CORRECTION

Mrs. Atcherley says that what she
telephOned the Advertiser was that
the Hawaiian Sons are to have mass
meeting Saturday evening or a week
from then to express their disapproval
of the Board of Healths attitude to-
wards the natives who desired to be
treated by Dr. Atcherley, their repu-
diation OF the new policy of the board
as a trick and their committal to le-
gislative measures directed toward the
eviction Of that board from the public
service"
AS printed in the morning paper the
attitude" was represented to be to-
wards Dr. Atcherley instead of his
would-be patients, who, Mrs. Atcher-
ley says, have been rushed away TO
Molokai.

HIGH SCHOOL
BUILDING TO BE OPEN FOR PUB
Lie INSPECTION ON FRIDAY,
SEPTEMBER ELEVENTH.

According to Superintendent Babbitt
of the Department of Public Instruc-
ton, the new High School building is
going ahead rapidly towards the final
completion. He states that it will
be a model of its kind and that Ho-
nolulu will certainly be proud of its
memorial to William Mckinley.
1t has been decided to set apart FRI
day, September II, as the day on which
the public will be invited to make an
inspection of the building and its fin
ishings By that time everything
will be in place for the commencement
of the school term which will start on
the following Monday A program of
some kind will be arranged for but its
character has not yet been decided on.

TAFT has honorable discharges from
various transports, having for over six
years served in the stewards depart
ment in the transport service and he
knows nearly everybody employed on
the trans-Pacifc transports.
He rightly figured on being able to
work his way, and as matter of fact
was not aboard as a stowaway as has
been stated enormously.
1t appears that Jack left power-of-
attorney with Jack Roberts and $50,
asking Roberts to pay TAFT $50 and re-
cover the diamond. But TAFT claims
that it was not loan, but sale, and
he has witnesses, he says, to prove it
The matter came up in police court
this morning and was continued unit
this afternoon. E. A. Douthitt re-
presented Roberts, acting for Jack, and
e. c. Peters appeared for TAFT.

and gold, coins and jewels, souvenirs
of the time when pirates stripped
sacred edihces of the sun and other
holy houses on the South American
coast.
There are pearls ranging in size from
babies tears to ladies' eyes and larger;
there are anciently revered ornaments
of gods and goddesses and little god
dies, no doubt.
Buried under two or three fathom of
coral, in a cave, are precious things
the Monetezumas may have known.
Captain Brown is the only one who
knows exactly where all these riches
are and he helped to bury the world
of wealth. So he says.
Fifty-eight years ago Captain Brown,
of Providence, r. l., shipped in New
York as second mate bound for the
West Indies. At Jamaica he met Cap
tain Henry Smith of the schooner Sea
Foam Brown Joined the Sea Foam
and was told by Captain Smith, after
being at sea some time, that the real
mission of the vessel was to do to the
Cocos Islands after treasure which had
been buried there by his father.
His father, master of the schooner
Black Witch, of Salem, Mass, was on
the coasts of Peru and Mexico while
the Spaniards were fighting the Peru
vians in 1920 and came in contact with
their treasure-laden ships, from which
he took treasure amounting to between
sixty and one hundred millions, in
GLIDING diamonds and other jewels,
church ornaments and loot from old
temples, all being taken to the COcos
Islands and buried
The Sea Foam arrived at the hiding
place, secured the treasure and moved
it to another island in the South Seas,
There all the crew except three died,
being poisoned by the captain. The
schooner went ashore and was des-
troyed. Brown, the captain and the
steward set out for Australia In the
longboat with nearly a million of the
treasure. On the terrible voyaging
to Australia the captain killed the cook
and attempted the life of Brown,
Brown killing him in self defense.
Three weeks later Brown. alone in
the longboat with a million in wealth,
reached Australia.
Now he is fitting an expedition, a
regular treasure-seeking corporation,
to go after the big pile buried where
none but he knows. Should his plans
not change and he comes here, there
will doubtless be men on the Honolulu
waterfront who will want to join-if
they may.
1t is the schooner Hermann over
again.

Attorney General Hemenway is up

has but one month left before his de-
parture for Washington where a num-
Der of extremely important Hawaiian
cases come up before the Supreme
Court of the United States. He will
leave this city by the Korea on Sep

Washington, possibly taking up the
John Marks case before the Circuit
Court of Appeals in California on his
return to the coast.
The NOSE important cases which will
come up are the Territory VS.. Cotton

the Lanai land matter. In the first
the local courts have awarded the
Territory a verdict orr $4,000, which,
with costs and interest to date has now
reached nearly $4,000. The Terri
tory needs this money and the Attor-

MoHta Kaizo appeal is on the ground
of alleged irregularity in the granting
of citizenship by circuit judges of the
Territory. 1t is a matter of life or
death for Keizo, who is under sentence
of hanging.

talked of, however, is the Lanai suit,

A LEGEND.

A little legend of the Saviour when
a child, came into our mind this morn
ing; and while likely some or many
of you are familiar with the same, we
are tempted to write it out.
The legend says, that our Saviour,
when very little boy, was playing, In
the moist clay or mud; and, some of
the children were trying to fashion a
little bird out of the clay, and would
then say, in merry way: Fly up my
little bird, fly up, into the sky!" $50
there must have been birds, in Bethle-
hem.) And the Saviour also stopped
down with them, and He made a little
bird, then saying too Fly up little
bird, fly up into the sky" And to
the wonder of the children, that gazed
awe-stricken as you and would do,
it flew up into the sky, farther than
their eyes could see.
And they all ran home to tell their
mothers of the wonderful work of the
God-child, Jesus.

WALLACE EXPECTS
To RETURN HERE

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. Al. Lor
Wallach, who disrupted the islands of
Hawaii recently over his alleged cure
for leprosy, returned yesterday on the
liner Siberia.
He failed to get an opportunity to
try the efficacy of his cure, was fined
by the Board of Health at Honolulu
Tor practicing medicine without a Ii
cense, and was execrated by the white
inhabitants of the islands. but he re-
turns confident that he could have
cured all the 800 patients at Molokai
if he had been given the chance.
The native Hawaiians idolized Wal
ZACH and thoroughly believed in his
power to cure, which the doctor swore
by affidavit he could do and had done.
The Home Rule party took up the
doctors cause and demanded of Gov
ernor Frear that he give Wallach the
opportunity he desired, but still the
doors of the leper colony were closed
to him.
Some of the regular Democrats and
Republicans, fearing the power Wal
ZACH was gaining, even requested that
he be given some of the lepers upOa
whom to experiment, and all the lepers
offered to take the cure But the au-
thorities on the islands dubbed him a
"quack," and so yesterday he return
ed to prepare for a fresh attack upon

McCandless will be represented in
Washington by A. B. Brown, of the
firm of Britton & Gray. He states
that the case is in a very good posi-
ton on the calendar and will probably
come up at the October term.
There are two tax appeal cases of
the Rapid Transit Company to come
up also, but the one which is of most
interest to the public and to the street
railroad company may not be heard.
This is the Liliha street case. 1t is
far back on the calendar and in order
to have it come up it would have to be
taken up out of its regular order An
other trouble in this case is that the
records have not yet been printed and
without these it would be hard to
prepare brief. Both the Attorney
General and the company would be
glad to have this matter settled in the
near future.
There is but one more case which
