There have been other and similar
incidents, all of them apparently keep
ing the fact in mind that Colonel Nor.
ris was an eccentric individual To
the freqnenters of Notes, Norris was
a familiar object. Of medium height,

promise. Norris was afraid Of the
result and left the East. Shortly after
taking up ranch life he was struck
in the head and temporarily lost his
memory. The court upon the applica-
ton of someone put him under guardi-
anship of two men who have since be
come prominent in business circles in
San Francisco.
When Norris came back to a realiza-
ton of events, he found that his prop
erty Interests in the State had been
transferred to his guardians and they
were 10th to give it up. Then he
brought suit to recover and about the
same time the breach of promise suit
was brought against him. Norris, as
plaintiff. carried his land suit through
all of the courts in the State and fin
ally to the highest tribunal in the land,
the United States Supreme Court. He
was defendant in the love suit and the
woman got judgment for a large
amount for her wounded feelings while
old Sam got nothing. No record of the
settlement of his land suit was fled
in California until recently when, after
twenty three years. the State court was
notified the decision was for defend
ants To pay the Judgment of the
woman to whom, as a young man, Nor
ris had made love- he was obliged to
mortgage his property to q local bank
ing house.
A Strange Man.
If Colonel Norris has been considered
eccentric, not to say peculiar, during
the passing wears. there was a reason
and the records of the court of Cali
fornia will furnish it. He did many
strange things in the management of his
property in Kan. When Jones sold out
to him, v0ung Arthur Jones was con
sidered competent to manage the place
and was employed by the colonel but
at the end Of six months he was told
to move Charlie Nacomher was the
next in line and he filed the place for
the same length Of time only to be told
at the end that it was not right for
man 10 stay too long in one place.
Macomher took MP a place in the neigh
h0rh0od and continued a warm friend
of the old man. Changes We're abrupt
and frequent until finally there was no
che left but a lone Chinese herder to
look after the great property. It IS IN
history that once he sent his men out
to round up the cattle and brand the
calves. They were Put into corrals and
one morning the old man came down
and ordered them turned loose as he
ala not believe in keeping them locked
up There has been little attention
paid to the management during recent
wears and other ranches have profited
by the addition Of mavericks that have
straved over to them.
\ half-dozen times during the past
fifteen wears the property has been

considered a good buy for Norris,
whatever he paid for it. If there was
an objection to the place it was due
to the fact that an occasional flow of
red lava came down over the grass and
made feeding scarce. In 1868 there
was a gusher that nearly put Kahuku
out of the running. Again in 1887
something attracted the lava toward
its succulent grasses and another pile
Of IA spread over the soil. These lit
tie disturbances had the effect of de
pressing the value Of the place as
ranch and then a lawsuit bumped the
colonel and depressed him.
It seems that IN the long ago, the
colonel became enamored of a French
woman, or she of him, and an engage
ment was the result. Suddenly the
swain in the case disappeared from his
haunts and soon after California had
a new resident. This was Colonel n
found where lie had located and brought
suit for damages for battered heart.
A Visible Streak.
Colonel Norris is Dane with a
streak of eccentricity that is visible at
all times. Years and years ago, when
John {. Fremont was appointed min
ister to Denmark, Norris called on him
At his residence in Copenhagen. He
tells the story of meeting Mrs. Ere
mont coming down the stairs and in
quiring of her if she had seen Mr..
Fremont,
"There is no such person. replied

''Y0ur pardon, madame, I should

Won His Title.
He was directed to the office Of the
representative of the United States
and there began a friendship that last
ed for many years.
just when Norris came to Hawaii is
not of record. In 1913 he kept a coffee
shop at the foot of King street near
the river and in that same year he
left for the mines in California. He
made occasional trips between the Is
lands and the mainland, travelling often
with Captain Fuller. Suddenly he was
lost to sight Of his friends and when
heard Of again he was with the Walker
flibusters n San Joaquin in Central
America and it was there he became
colonel III a regiment of soldiers of
fortune.
Later he cropped up in Mexico and
interested himself in a revolution
against Diaz and was forced to flee
the country between two days. Next
he was heard Of in California IN the
Sacramento Valley as the owner Of a
valuable ranch property. It was in
New York he met the French woman
who later brought suit for breach of

Promptly Sat On.

Be that as it may, his speech added
fuel TO the prohibition fire. And be
fore the sessions closed he probably
was sorry he spoke. The chief address
on Tuesday night was by J. A. Magoon
Of Honolulu. He referred with great
respect to the splendid manner in
which this big conference was handled
as sufficient evidence that the Hawai-
ian people were capable Of caring for
themselves ana could not help but feel
that the large attendance and the very
great interest manifested was the most
hopeful sign he had yet seen for the
success of the election IN July.

Reply to Opposition.

Rev. Z. B. Turner had been asked
to reply to some of the objections com
monty raised against prohibition. He
confined himself to three points, show
ing conclusively:
That drinking beer, even moderately
has harmful effects physically, mental
~ and morally.
Men training for athletic teams are
not permitted to use liquor in any
form. because ii effects their strength
and power of endurance. Life insur-
ance companies have statistics to
show that the death average among
drinkers is 1912 to every 81 600 and
only 800 among abstainers.
BY a recent test with in0typprs
(typesetters) men who were given only
TWO glasses OF beer a day lost ID per
cent on their speed,
In the State penitentiary Of New
York ont of 1900 inmates, seventy five
per cent are committed for crimes due
to drunkenness and incompetence.
That the Bible does not sanction the
use of liquor.
Any attempt to make any text 10 so
is to distort it from its original con
text, which is wholly unjustifahIe if not
rank hypocrisy.
That the statement that the loss of
license revenue viii increase taxation
is misleading and untrue
"CarroIl. our greatest statistician,
he said, shows that for every 81 Of
license revenue paid in if costs the
government $23 in the maintenance Of

Of the league for the organization of

the significance Of the present move

Pile not only of Hawaii but of the en-

He paid high tribute to Delegate

the objection raised by the antiprohi-
