TOXIC On THE
COELHO FOLLY
Japanese Press Praises Local
Legislature for Its
Stand.

Toxic newspapers seem to have been
very well pleased with the Douthitt
resolution which was introduced into
the House by Representative E. A.
Douthitt and passed by that body. The
resolution was cabled to the Foreign
Office at Toxic by japanese Consul
General Uyeno of Hawaii, promptly at
the time it was passed here The fol-
lowing translation has been made from,
the Jill Shinbun, considered the fore
most japanese newspaper in Japan,
copies of which were received on the
s. Al. Siberia:
GA bill purported to exempt Japa-
nese fishermen from the fishing rights
in Hawaiian waters, which was intro
duced in the Senate of the Hawaiian
Legislature, is now being reported as
tabled indefinitely. 1t shows the atti-
tude of the more responsible majority
in the Hawaiian Legislature.
ave can only express our gratifca-
ton to know that such is the attitude
of the responsible element of the Ha-
waiian Senate towards our country
men, in spite of the agitation on the
Pacific Coast.
''The latest from Honolulu is that
another resolution, which endorses the
attitude of President Roosevelt with
regard to the California agitation, was
introduced in the House. 1t is ONLY
natural that we hear true sentiment
of the American people toward Japan
from some part of the States. We are
perhaps better understood in Hawaii
than in some other parts of the Unit
ed States, for Hawaii and Japan come
in closer touch with each other.
"This is a good sign, and we are
pleased with the expression of such a
kind sentiment from Hawaii. We have
no doubt that such is the sentiment
of the American people toward us-at
least, of those of the more responsible
class.
"While we know all the while that
our countrymen were contributing to
the industry and welfare of the Ha-
waiian Islands, we were somewhat
afraid that the Islands might be in
tested with the anti-Japanese feeling
prevalent on the Pacific Coast. How
ever, the resolution now introduced in
the Hawaiian Legislature proves the
contrary.
cit is very fortunate that in the
outpost of America, and in the cross
road of the Pacific, where United
States and Japan must come into
friendly contact with each other, there
exists such sound sentiment of aloha
between us.
"We can congratulate the Hawaiian
Legislators for their action, and hope
that the friendly feeling between US
which they express now may last for
ever.

is one of the places which has been
favored as a site for the lighthouse
and is understood to have a number of
strong supporters. Captain Tullett,
who represents the local mariners at
Washington, is understood to have ex-
pressed himself as being highly in ia
vor of the site at Kilauea, as opposed
to the one at Mana, on the southern
side of Kauai.
The question of where to place the
big light has been held in allegiance
for some time past, but the settlement
will undoubtedly be made ON this trip
of the Kukui The money for the
lighthouse, which will be equipped
with all the latest and best appliances,
comes from a Federal appropriation.
Besides giving this matter their at
tention, Lieutenant Moses and Major
Winslow will inspect the light at Ma
wiliwili, and will take a look at the
buoys which are placed at different sta
tions along the coastline. The Kukui
will probably be inside the harbor at
daybreak this morning.

 Talent is power, tact is the sk:'l to use It.

'Tis the steam that makes the wheels re- volve and causes it to rush through the lengths of space.

 The conductor handed the passen- ger a half dollar, a quarter and three dimes. The thin little man saw the three dimes and quickly thrust his change in his picket. He didn't wait until the car got to Fourteenth street, but alighted at Eighth street When he had gone a passenger said to the conductor:
 You gave that man three dimes in stead of two"
 The conductor did not smile, but said:

in his hand to Barclay. Barclay cast
a look over it, took pen in hand, and
was just about to dip the pen, when
every one round the table started at a
sharp sound, and all eyes turned TO
Barclay. for they had heard from him,
uttered in a high kind of cry, the
words:
"I desire to say now that it was I
who stole the five hundred pounds"
And the cry was repeated: Eyes, it was
I, Charles Barclay!"
Astounding to see, however, this cry
seemed to sound from him without any
opening of his mouth. He had sprung
upright, and the candlelight glaring on
his face showed him ghostly in his
whiteness, his eyes wide, but with no
opening of the lips, till he opened them
to blurt the words:
"I beg to say-I am the victim of
some trick. 1 never uttered those
words" But one moment afterward he
was heard to say; Eyes, I did utter
them-I know that 1 did" This time
without any opening of the mouth.
BY now they had all bounded out of
their chairs to stare at this marvel of
Charles Barclay alternately accusing
and excusing himself, like two Bar
clays savagely gnashing at each other:
"I stole the money" he was heard
to say, land. being in fright when

Ten pounds!" exclaimed the doctor.
Where on earth did the girl get ten

'I gave it to her." admitted Lady
Bowden, land no doubt did wrong; but
the child begged me, assuring me that
it was for a good purpose. and, know
ing that she was to be depended upon
for truthfulness at any rate, in one of
the lazy-minded moments l did it.. l
don't see that that's SO much-she was
ever such a persuasive little beggar;
and as for keeping Dick within bounds
that was really out of the question:

In such talk the afternoon passed,
evening bringing little hope, though
some little in one of the wires from
Scotland Yard; and at about 9 the
dowry rite, to which some relatives
had been invited, took place in the
library. Six candlesticks of smooth
old gold stood on the table, whose
polish blushed at their sheen; a butler
and a footman hung mutely upon the
scene Charles Barclay smiled in his
hard smile. and Hope had the smile Of
a saint who is being taken to the stake.
There came a moment when Mr..
Stone, the attorney, after droning a
great many words, gave the document

would see my face-for 1 am not un-

creep under Mr.. Bawn's bed and called
out through his mouth that he was the
culprit; for l am a music hall ventril-
oquist, as little Dick found out one
night in London when she got out of

boards; and it is no one but little

in the alcove at this moment with one
Mr.. Bawn and a police sergeant, so
perhaps some of us had better be MAX

Barclay was a man of action, and
quick as thought he was in flight
through a doorway, the sergeant
after him-too late-Dick, always "a
good sort" having purposely given him
"the tip" A second afterward the
long-legged girl herself ran in, drag
ging Bawn after her, and was gar
nered in her fathers arms, who
groaned in her ear:

And Hope stood before Bawn with
