NO MORE RESERVATIONS.

Owing to the fact that so many per
sons booked for the Kauai-Maui ex-
cursion and then failed to respond
when they were asked to pay for their
tickets it is probable that in future
the Inter-Island Company will decline
to book for excursions the names of
those not heard from.
The Mauna Kea will leave at ten
o'clock tonight and will return to Ho-
nolulu at daylight Tuesday morning
There has never been an excursion out
of Honolulu offering the delights of
this one and those who have the time
and the price are making a mistake
not to go.

To the arched handle was caught

was about to seat himself at his desk
in the Patent Office about o'clock yes
terday morning. Joseph Tyssowski, six
ty-six years old, of 1907 Twenty-second

bile in apparently fair health. Several
moments later he went to the office of

ped to the floor. A physician was called,
but he pronounced life extinct.
Mr.. Tyssowsh was born in Carno.

Washington Daughters of the Amer
lean Revolution expressed great interest
Yesterday in the article in the current
number of Verita's Magazine, and first
ma/4> Ldbllc in The Washington Herald
refuting certain scandals which had
been in currency about Mrs. William
Cumming Story, honorary State regent
of New York, and twice candidate OF
the conservative members Of the ID. A.
r. for president general.
On all sides the sentiment appeared TO
be for Mrs Story, and the general feel
ing was that the New York woman had
completely refuted the lies circulated
about her private life for alleged po-
Iitical reasons. Even among her oppo-
nents the opinion appeared to be uni
versal that the article in Verita's had
thoroughly refuted these scandals and
left the circulators of them not a foot
to stand upon.
Discordant Note Struck.
The only discordant note struck was
voiced by Mrs. Matthew T. Scott, presi-
dent general of the organization, who
had been exonerated from participation
in the circulation of the scandals in the
Verita's article. Mrs. Scott, while re-
fusing to give a set interview on the
subject. much TO the surprise of many
Daughters, seemed to object to Mrs
Story's refutation Of the scandals, or, st
least, criticised them, for she said:
Whom the gods would destroy they
first make mad" When 1t became known
that Mrs. Scott had thus spoken OF
Mrs. Story, Indignation was expressed
toward her by some Of the most prom
inent members of the organization. They
pointed out that Mrs. Scott had evil
IDENTIFY stepped aside from an impartial
viewpoint in making this comment pub
licly.
Calls Them All Lies.
Among the Daughters now in town
who appeared pleased with the publi-
cation of this story were Mrs. Henry
F. Blount, a charter member of the
society and prominent for years in
d. A. r. activities. Mrs. Blount said:
IL sympathized with Mrs. Story when
learned of the circulation Of these
ISLANDERS. 1 dislike underhand tales,
which the lies told OF Mrs. Story were.
I am very glad the truth In the matter
is established. Furthermore, I am moral

ly certain that the circulation of these
canards had much to do with Mrs.
Story's defeat the two times she ran for
president general of the d. A. R., and
I am sure that every good Daughter
will rejoice in this refutation of an un-
derhanded lie.
mirabIy under these trying circumstances
and always displayed herself as a cul-
tured, gracious gentlewoman."
Mrs. George NJ. Sternberg, wife of the
former Surgeon General Of the United
States army, and also a former vice
president general of the D. A. R., was
leaving town last night, but paused long
enough to express her qualification over
the publication of the story and her be-
lief that the scandals had both hurt Mrs.
Story in her candidacy and that they
had been circulated for some time.
Mrs. Lockwood Pleased.
Mrs Mary S. Lockwood, one of the
founders of the Daughters of the Amer
lean Revolution, and who is an ardent
supporter OF Mrs. Story, and who is
loved and revered throughout the mem
bership of the D. A. r. by both the Scott
and Story women and who was unani-
mously elected State regent of the Dis
trict of Columbia last congress, does not
hesitate to express her delight that Mrs.
Story has been vindicated from the
charges made against her during her
campaign for president general Of tha
Daughters.
IT think It was an honorable thing to
right a woman who has been wronged.
These stories about Mrs. Story were
false, but they were repeated many times
last spring, and in previous congresses
1t Is too bad that the people who op-
pose Mrs. Story cannot be generous
enough to be glad that this insidious
scandal that has so long blackened our
organization IS at last undeniably re-
futed. Any one who jeers at Mrs. Story
in this matter Gons very far out Of their
way, and shows themselves in a very
unenviable light"
Mrs. Merwin, president Of the District
division OF the United Daughters of the
Confederacy, and who is also a men,
Der Of the D. A. R., said II like to see
q wrong righted. / admire Mrs. Story
as much as any one might who wit
messed her conduct during the trying
time last spring, when she knew false
hoods were being used against her."

Dr.. Wiley commends Cotton Oh

For over quarter of a. century DR..
Wiley, the famous government expert,
has conducted an active campaign for
pure food in the interest of public health.
His advocacy in a recent speech of the
use of Cotton Oil as a food is, there
fore, especially significant; it simply en-
phasizes the wholesomeness of Cotto-
iene-the vegetable oil shortening
which is composed so essentially of Cot
ton Oil. the use of which he so strongly
recommends. Cottolene Is endorsed
by physicians generally, because OF its
purity and wholesomeness. 1t has been
the leader in Cotton Oil products for
oyer twenty-five years.

Vegas Has
A Big Fire

LAS VEGAS, New. May 20.
What was probably the most disas-
trous fire in the history OF Las Vegas
started Wednesday night in the Ov-
erland Hotel Building, tenanted by
Pollard & O'Neill's Saloon, Frank
Metzdorf's restaurant. J. Schwartz
Happy Hour Theater and Rawriz
Brothers Clothing store.
The fire was s~trenuously fought i'll
a high wind with three streams OF
water. but the building is a total loss
with practically all its contents. The
guests OF the Overland Hotel had
many narrow escapes, but they were
all saved. The fire started in the
kitchen of the Overland cafe.
The building, which was construct
ed OF reinforced concrete, occupied
one OF the nos prominent corners
Of Las Vegas, directly opposite the
park and across the street from the
Nevada Hotel. 1t was considered one
OF the most modern structures in the
city.
The guests i'll the Nevada Hotel
opposite we're thrown lin a panic and
crowded into the street, returning to
their rooms only when il was appar-
ent that the fire was under control.

law which aolishes the State Audi
tor. Mr.. Adamson takes his place and
will look into the affairs OF Sheriff a.
J. Putler OF White Pine County, who
is reported short in his funds and ac-
counts.
In the meantime the County Com
missioners have declared the Office
vacant and have appointed C.. 5. Grain
to fill the position. Since the ap-
pointment the Commissioners have
doubted their power and the matter
is in the hands of the District Attor-
ney.
The Expositor states that a short
age from $1,000 TO $1,000 is believed
to exist, but this can only be deter
mined by auditing the county books,
which has been ordered.
Butler evidently planned his fight
as he transferred his property TO his
wife some time ago. The Expositor
says regarding the new appointment
The action of the Commissioners
was taken about 5 O'Clock last even
ing when the board adjourned until
this morning. At to-day's morning
session nothing was accomplished
except the arrangement with Mr.. Bel
ford to look into the law in the mat
ter and render an opinion. This he
said he could no do until about 4
