A NOME NEWSPAPER
MAN IS IN TOWN

"Seven and half years ago stop.
ped off in Honolulu for a few hours
on my way from New Zealand to San
Francisco, and said that some day |
intended to come back to Honolulu to
live" remarked B. M. Stone yester-
day "And here / am
Mr.. Stone has been living ever since
he went to the mainland at Nome,
where they have days six months long
and half days communication year
with the rest of the world; where they
thaw the ground all the year round to
sift the gold out of it, and where they
race dogs for sacks OF nuggets, cali
walking "mushing" and where ice
cream is no luxury. Mr. Stone has
been connected with the Nome Nugget,
daily paper, having been it's manager
for the past couple of years. He has
| grown wearied of frost and snow and
malamuts, however, and has moved to
| the Crossroads, arriving on the Hilon-
| ian to become foreman of the Paradise
of the Pacific shop.
"We have pretty good time dur
| ing the winter darkness, in spite of tho
| fact that the sun doesn It show itself, +"
| he said. "We have all kinds of
sports and the biggest thing in Amer

ry mush, in which the first prize Is
$4,000. The race won t come off for
some weeks yet, but when left Nome
the betting had started. One man
sent out all the way to Winnipeg for
dogteam for the race and is betting
thousand dollars that, he does the
500 miles in less than four days. Last
year, although held up for ten hours
in blizzard, the racers made the dis
tance in four days and twelve hours.

was trying to communicate with Sitka
or California. One of the members
went in and requested him to moderate
his voice, as he was interrupting the
business.
There was a slight cessation, and the
Fire Superintendent took his departure
very noisily. The respite was brief.
Soon there were heard sounds as though
the building was being shaken t, its
foundation by an earthquake. The
stircase seemed to be struck several
times in succession by some heavy body,
and appeared to be about to collapse.
1t was only the chief coming back to
resume his conversation over the wires.
AS soon as he could make himself
heard, Richards got up and moved that
the board communicate with the Hilo
Fire Department, recommending that a
new Fire Superintendent be appointed
to replace the present holder of the
office. He remarked that the exhibi
| ton just witnessed was a sample Of
the regular state of things.
The motion was unanimously carried
and the secretary instructed to wirC

DO NOT BUY CLOTHES
FROM THE SOLDIERS

and not more than five years and $4,000
fine for each offense.
Recently good deal of stir was
raised on the mainland concerning the
sale of soldiers clothing to civilians
and the War Department issued very
strenuous order against the custom
Possession of such military clothing by
persons other than soldiers is consid-
cred prima facie evidence that the
person holding it has bought it from
soldier and the burden of proving
that it came into his possession other
wise is upon him.
The only difficulty the military au-
thorities have found in making this
statute fit is the fact that discharg-
ed soldier is entitled to keep the cloth
ing acquired by him during his mill
tary service, and the question has not
been fully decided whether, after he
leaves the army, he is entitled to dis.
pose of such clothing as he sees fit.
However, the military authorities
here are not alarmed about the dis
charged soldier end of the matter, for
very few soldiers receive their dis
charges in Honolulu, and therefore the
amount of clothing disposed of through
that source would be quite small and
far out of proportion to the amount of
United States clothing property dis
posed of to citizens.
A considerable portion of the cloth
ing of enlisted men of the navy and
the marine corps also frds ready
market among civilians.
The Chinese and Japanese buyers are
not aware of any law, apparently
against buying soldier clothing, and
they are always in the market for the
stuff, first or secondhand.

W|RSCHULE|I AND
ELLIOTT ARRIVE

United States Marshal q. Il. Elliott
of San Francisco arrived here on the
steamship China from the Coast yester-
day, bringing his wife with him. Mar
shall Elliott has been in illhealth for
some time past, and decided that a
trip to the Islands would do him the
most good. Although Captain Il.
Wirschuleit, the defaulting witness in
the Wynne trial, was on the same
steamer. he was not in the custody of
the Marshal. Wirschuleit was placed
under bond of $4,000 by the United
States Commissioner in San Francisco
to appear in court here.
He put in an appearance at the Ju-
dietary building yesterday, but as the
Federal Court had adjourned until
Monday, he will appear and face a
charge of contempt of court at that
time. Captain Wirsehuleit had no re-
luetanee against giving his evidence in
the case of John Wynne, but failed to
obey the summons issued out of the
local court because of the inconveni
ence that trip 10 Honolulu would
cause him. He is master of the steam
ship Bandon, and would have had tc
surrender his place for the time being
at least.

Army overcoats, shirts, trousers and
shoes found ready market in town
Saturday night, much of the clothing
coming from the Fifth Cavalry canton
ment at Leilehua. Soldiers parted
with these articles of uniform at any
and all prices and they found ready
and willing purchasers.
The overcoats were mainly Of the
old "Army blue" pattern with rows
of military brass buttons. The shirts
were blue and khaki color; the shoes
were regulation and the trousers like
wise. Orientals were the buyers main
". 1t is reported that the Japanese
purchase the army coats, dye them and
ship them to Japan, where they fetch
good prices. The shirts, trousers and
shoes, however, are worn here. Por-
tions of army uniforms can be found
in all parts of the Islands, in fact.
The army authorities, however, ex'
pect to keep close watch on this trad.
ing off of government property, and
some day scouting party of the mill
tary forces may make a search of the
city to recover what belongs to Uncle
Sam.
When asked for the law and regula
tions covering the matter, Major Dun
ming, commandant of Fort Shafter
stated yesterday that section of the
Revised Statutes of the United States
covers this point explicitly. This sec
ton prohibits any person from buying
from soldiers any part of uniform
and the penalty for violation of the
law provides for not less than one
Yenr's imnrisonment and $1,000 fine

ALLAN R|CANS
ARRIVE FRIDAY

Next Friday Miguel Fishers base
ball PLAYERS will arrive in Honolulu on
the Mongolia, and the first game Will
be played at the league ground on the
following day. Saturday, Sunday, ana
Wednesday games will be the baseball
program, and the much-touted lads
called the All-Amercans will cross
bats and match cleverness with the
premier ball.tossers of the Territory
of Hawaii.
There will be things doing in fan
dom. That goes without saying.
And why shouldn It there be! Sew
eral weeks ago scare.head story was
printed in these columns, warning the
locals that they must get busy if they
wished to stack up against the best the
United States can send forth in the
baseball line. 1t was limited that prob
ably the professionals wouldn't stop
off here if word reached them of the
state of affairs then existing.
Since that time the Honolulu team
has been working-working hard. Ed
die Fernandez got busy, the trustees OF
the baseball league got busy, everyone
got busy but the fans. It's up to the
latter from now on.
Twenty to nothing was the score by
which the -Hawaiians walloped the
Marine aggregation at the ball park
last Saturday, and those sea-soldiers
are not babies at the game either.
That IS a pretty big score, ana 1T illus
trates the condition in which Eddie
Fernandez has gotten his team.
1t was walkover, of course-Just
the easiest kind of snap imaginable Tor
the All-Hawaiians to pass out goose
egg score to the Marines But the
burning question of the day is; what
will they do against Americas best
PROFESSIONALS We don know-and
wouldn t tell if we did-fDr the fans
are wanted to go out and see for them
selves.
But it wouldn't be a bad proposition
to make a wager on. The All-Hawan
ans ought to hold the professional
down pretty close in the first game.
Fishers bunch will not be ripe TO
the best class of ball on account of TIT
long sea voyage from the Orient, blu
they will play like fends to make
good impression the initial day. How
ever, the Honolulu boys should hol
them down to neat score, if not wi
out.
Bill Hampton was ON duty at the oil
stand last Saturday. He met speed
one OIL the nose and lost it on the fla
side of the fence. Hampton didn
think he would play this season at frs
but the "call of the ball'' was to
much for him.
The boys viii settle down, begnnin
to night, to the most consistent kin
of practise. Every afternoon will lin
the whole bunch doing stunts at I'll
park under Fernandez. Five more day
and then the opening game. Let
all be there.

RE|LLY-SM|TH
BOUT IS NEAR

Charlie Reilly and frankie Smith
are nearing the time when work il
Stacked and condition is perfect for n
hard contest. The bout between these
two lads that was so much looked for
word to by local fans during their last
visit, though deferred, is to come off at
last, and interest in the go next Sat
urday has lost nothing by the delay.
When Charlie Reilly decided to go
to the Coast and not stay to meet
Smith, there was some adverse criti-
cism of the lad & action. but it appears
that he was really under the weather
at the time and was anxious to get
back to his wife. who had been urging
him to return. BY the readiness with
which Charlie agreed to come on here
and meet Smith he has silenced all
criticism and he is just as much the
little Honolulu favorite he was before
he went away.
This is one bout the result of which
it is impossible to forecast, as Smith
has not been seen in real action here
1t is true that he appeared twice, but
he was not in condition and was quite
unable TO do himself justice. One
bout was mere exhibition at the fish
market, and the other was an unexpect
cd go with Sailor Trinkle, in which
the latter had the better of the going
but outweighed his competitor by sey
eral pounds.
Smith Is Willing.
In spite of his lack of condition
, Smith showed willingness to bore il
and sufficient cleverness to let US sup
pose that he is in Reilly's class. Here
is one lad that is liable to make Refill,
loosen up and go at it. So far the lat
ter has not extended himself to an,
great extent here. In his first 90 witt
McFadden he let out a few rights tina
did terrific execution, but he slowed u
during the last rounds, thinking tina
( he had an easy decision.
When he took ON Young Weber h
had an easy thing of it, and hardl
had to exert himself, and when he me
Lahey he was up. against SO clever
performer that he could not throw dii
erection to the winds aud make roug
and tumble mill of it.
But with Smith it is. liable to b
different. Reports of Frankie's pas
performances go TO show that he is
diamond drill when it comes to BORN
in. and he is liable to jar Reilly int
prompt use of his right. Both lad
are good little generals, and, once the
get properly warmed up, there is lab
, to be something doing of no mea
order.
