all from Hustace, although the latter
refuses to acknowledge that he is not
as certain of the nomination now as
he was three weeks ago. The work OF
Achi to hold the Hawaiian delegates
to their support of Hustace, for his

through the work of Cupid in Lane o

coupled with the candidate IS abortive
bid for support from the Home Rulers,
has been more harmful than favorable
for the chances of the chairman of the
Board of Supervisors and the exposure
of Achi's ulterior motive in boosting
him, which has never been denied, also
helped in the slump.

Another FIutter of the Flag

The habeas corpus case of George
Wade occupied the whole of yesterday
forenoon before Judge Dole and was
not completed, There will be further
hearing on Monday. The case though
somewhat technical is interesting.
In 1898 or 1899 George Wade shot
and killed a cook or steward on the
steamship Australia by the name of
Gillespie. The crime was committed
just as the Australia was sailing for

question of whether the constitution

Wade was brought before Judge Gear
by habeas corpus and was released on
the ground that the constitution did
follow the flag, and that therefore as

ATKINSON ASKED
To LEAD PARTY
Wanted to Head the Central
Committee by the
Leaders.

Much of the interest~attached to the
convening of the Republican delegates
TO the Territorial convention, which
meets here tomorrow, centers about the
probable selection of men for the Ter
ritorial Central Committee. 1t is fore
gone conclusion that the nomination for
Delegate to Congress will go to Kuhio.
There is no opposition to him and any
opposition that could possibly develop
between now and the nomination hour
would be useless. Kuhio will receive
the nomination and be reelected, the
latter with only slightly more difficulty
than before.
The man whom the party leaders de-
sire to select as chairman of the Cen
tral Committee is A L. G. Atkinson.
Jack is a man who knows the game
and who would go in to win, always by
fair means and aboveboard tactics.
With him at the head of the committee

now in some eases. Mr.. Atkinson was

will shortly come before the Prussian
courts. -s
A wealthy silk manufacturer Is SUI
ing an actress for damages in connec-

after brief acquaintance, asked the
actress for a kiss. and received the
reply that he must frst shave OF his
mustache.
The mustache, OF the approved
kaiser type, was locally famous, but
its wearer visited the barber and had
the mustache shaved on.
When he claimed the reward, the
actress informed him that she had
since become engaged 10 another man,
and could not keep the bargain. The
manufacturer now asks the cour.
either to compel the actress TO kiss
him or to award him 1878 for breach
