New York, July 15.-Omnipotence
end omniscience viii te opposed to
mite intelligence in New York next
week, when Pierre A. Bernard, other
wise known as Dom the Omnipo'
tent, will be placed on trial on an
indictment charging abduction.
Whether his all-seeing eyes will en-
able him to convince jury of his in
nocence is Il matter for such grave
doubt that "Oom" has engaged a COM
mon or garden earthly lawyer to con-
duct his defense.
Bernard conducted a so-called in
stitute in West Seventy-fourth sreet,
where he gave instruction to women
in an alleged Hindoo religion and the
art of curing ills without drugs. For
the feminine initiates" he had a
special course, very occult and mys
terious, and which apparently re-
ceived its sanction from the chron-
cles of Boccaccio, rather than the
Hindoo sacred books.
One of his alleged victims was
Zelia Hopp, who caused his arrest on
the abduction charge. "Oom" was
formerly a resident of Portland, Ore,
and evidence as to his practices In
that city will be brought out at the
trial.

DR.. w. H. Freeman, of Brooklyn, is
responsible for the latest theory in
regard to ills and pills, which he
terms the medical affinity" This
is the way it is: If you are large,
portly person, with an over-supply of
chin and abdomen, then you have
medical affinity" for a certain kind
of drug, and that is the kind of pill
you want to take when anything goes
wrong with your interior arrange
ment.
But if you are lean and hungry
individual, with figure that would
make a toothpick look corpulent by
comparison then scme other kind of
pill is your medical affinity"
The same theory applies to blondes
and brunettes. Brunettes are said to
have bromine as their affinity, while

LIQUOR BOARD
GIVES DAVIS
SCU[LY'S JOB

The liquor license board met yester
day afternoon, commencing operations
at four o clock. Without the portals
of the board s meeting room, which
happened to be the throne room in the
palace, or capitol, there stood a goodly
number of men interested in the liquor
business.
There was but a brief meeting as
far as the public was concerned, and
then the board went into executive SEES
sion, excluding the reporters, to con-
slider the personal characteristics and
other matters pertaining to the morals
and reliability of men concerned in the
applications for liquor responsibility.
In the first place, as far as import
ance is concerned, though it was not
the first matter considered by the com
mssioners, the request of Jack Scully
to transfer his Fashion Saloon license
to Dickey Davis, and also the request
of Dickey Davis to receive the saloon
transfer of Jack Scully, were granted,
and that was all there was about it.
1t is reported that Davis pays Scully
$24 900 for the stock and good will and
business but what proportion of that
sum is cash is difficult to say.
There is talk of Scully getting out
of the liquor business so as to shine
in politics These facts. if they are
facts, are more or less clouded by I'M
certainty.
One of the first matters that came
before the board was the request of
T. Dias to transfer his interest in Dlas
& Dias, in the Waipahu Saloon, to J.
Moniz. and action by the board was
deferred until the next meeting thereof.
There was received protest from
Waipahu residents against the posslbll-
| itv of the beard of liquor license com
missoners issuing any more licenses for
the Waipahu section.
The application of Nakamura for a
saloon license at Waipahu was denied,
as was the application, for the same
district of NJ. Tsutsumi, and also the
application of r. Ota, both the latter
being japanese.
O. Kazaki wants to run a saloon at
/ Eva, and F. l.. Peterson wants to run
saloon at Waipahu. Both of these
matters were referred to the liquor
| inspector, William Fennell. ]. Lemon 5

While searching through the archives
in the course of routine work, Archivist

scripts of poetry written in the hand
writing of the exQueen. He brought
the papers to the Governor at once, and
after a consultation between them and
Secretary Mott-Smith, the Governor

| papers Lydecker paid his respects to
the Queen yesterday.
| The poetry was returned to her with

upon the ruins of her throne. 1t was
the happest gift of the many that were
presented to Her Majesty yesterday,
and she acknowledged them as such.

BOY SCOUTS To
Be ORGANIZED
NEXT WEEK

When The Advertiser editorially sug
gested the idea Of a Hawaiian branch
of the Boy Scouts yesterday, it did not
know that the matter had already been
taken in hand by Il. s. Gault, the
superintendent of the Boys Club, who
has been in correspondence for the
past two months with the headquar-
ters of the Boy Scouts in New York
and who has his plans SO far under
way that in all probability two patrols
of scouts will be enrolled next week.
The Boy Scout movement should re-
ceive the greatest encouragement in
are to develop the best that is in the
boy, to encourage manliness, selfreli
ance, honor. proper pride and a spirit
of independence, doing such by direct
ing the natural activity of the boy
| along proper lines.
4 committee Will meet on Monday to
60 over the plans OF the local organ
ization as outlined in the light of the
advices from New York. If these plans
are approved, as they probably viii
be, the work of forming the pioneer
scout patrols Of the Islands will pro
coed. The boys are ready and eager tc
enroll.
Local conditions will make necessary
some few changes from the mainland
and British organization, particularly
in the matter of uniforms. 1t would
be out of the question for boys here
to wear the heavy uniforms adopted
elsewhere, but a neat khaki uniform
has been planned
