ELks TAKE TIE WHARF.

Alakea street wharf will be out OF
commission as far ms the ocean.going
steamers are concerned from the 18TH
inst until the 23rd, or thereabouts,
for It has been handed over TO the
Elks by Marston Campbell, superiu.
tendent Of Public Works, for use in
connection with the festivities of the
22nd. The Elks vii start decorating
on the 18th and thence to the date
mentioned will have full control of
the wharf Between those dates the
Chiyo Maru, from the Orient and the
Wilhelmina and Siberia from San
Francisco are expected to make port,
but instead OF the Chiyo and Siberia
docking, as usual, at the Alakea street
wharf, they have to find accommoda-
ton elsewhere. OF course, the WI
helmina will dock at the Matson Ma
vigation Company's wharf as custom
airy, while the Siberia will in all pro-
liability be locked at the Oceanic
wharf, and the Chiyo Maru at the
Hackfeld wharf. The Sierra will be
in and out again before the Siberia
arrives, so that the Oceanic wharf
will be free to take the Pacific Mail
steamer. Under ordinary Circumstance
es, now that Castle and Cooke have
the agency for the T. K K, the Chiyo
Maru would probably have locked at
the new Matson wharf, so that really
the giving over of the Alake street
wharf to the Elks has not made any
difference so far as the Chiyo Maru
is concerned.
The Wilhelmina, with the visiting
Shriners, will probably leave for Hilo
from the Alakea street wharf.

A RELIQUARY GONE.

PARIS, Jan. 24.-Almost as much
excitement has been caused in France
by the disappearance of a famous re-
liquary from a village church as was
created in Italy by the theft of the
Ascoli cope, which j. Pierpont Morgan
purchased, and later restored to the
Italian government.
The French reliquary, the loss Of
which is now reported, is believed 10
have gone to America. 1t dates from
the fifteenth century, and was pre-
served in the church at Soureille-sur-
Ussel, in the Department of Correze.
1t is of enameled copper, represents
the head of st. Martin, was exhibited
at the Paris Exposition in 1909, and
was classed as an historical monu

Government to allow them to sell It

ination of the reliquary, with which he
was well acquainted, discovered that
clever, but valueless imitation hal
been, substituted for it. An inquiry
was instituted and several days later
the authorities learned that a suppOs-
eddy genuine reliquary, together with
an antique censor, had been sold by
the Town Council for Al 900 francs,
($S,200) The local Deputy appears
to have assumed the responsibility for
this transaction, and to have pleaded
the pressure of financial necessity IF
the municipality.
Curious to relate, however, he APP
pears to be under the impression that
the reliquary which was sold was the
original one. The Paris dealer who
bought the reliquary now seems to
agree that, judging by the character
of the pearls and other precious
stones which adorn it, the article
which he was induced to buy is not
genuine. AS far as can be ascertain
ed the dealer was acting on behalf
of American clients.
The situation today, therefore, is
that there are two heads bf ST.
Martin in existence. One has COM
pletely disappeared, while a copy
which was made from it has been
sold out of the country.

A Timely Budget Of Old
World News and Gossip

witness the coronation ceremony In
Westminster Abbey. The inquirers are
evidently ignorant of the fact that all
the seats in the historic edifice are
reserved for that occasion for people
who have a prescriptive right to be
present. Your correspondent can say
there is just one chance for a couv-
ageous and also a wealthy American
possessing no real right to view the
ceremony
There is a certain Irish peer who
is not overburdened with this world 8
goods, but who is an excellent good
fellow, and willing to make deal
with an American by which the latter
could obtain a seat in Westminster
Abbey during the coronation. Publ

avoided for the plan is simply that
the Peer in question will allow his
own place to be taken.
His substitute would have to wear
the Peers robes and coronet and 9TH
erwise so disguise himself as to pass
the scrutiny of those who guard the
doors. Furthermore, this Irish Peer,
with Characteristic humor, stipulates
that should his alien substitute be dis
covered and rudely elected from the
historic edifice, he would have to
grin and bear it, and could neither
seek redress nor restitution of the
money which he would have to pay
down before the date of the ceremony.
The sum which will induce this Irish
Peer to clinch the bargain is a goodly
one

DAUPHINs ESCAPE DOUBTED

PARIS, January 24.-As the parlia-
mentary committee proceeds with it's
investigation into the claims of the
Naundorffs to see whether or not they
are descended from the last Dauphin,
those who believe that little Louis
XVII escaped from the wicked cobbler
OF the temple and went to Holland
are decreasing in numbers.
The great and crushing argument
against the Naundorff claim is that
the first bearer of the name was abb
solutely disowned by the Duchesse
d'Angouleme, who would have been
his sister if his account Of his ESCAPE
from the temple had been true.
L'Echo de Paris publishes a fac
smile of her will, which was written
out by her at Fronsdorff on July 1,
1851. The document is signed Marie
Therese de France, Comtesse de
Marnes," the name officially taken in
her exile by the Duchesse de Angou-
leme. After a touching preface, in
which she forgives, following the ex-
ample of her parents" all who have
injured her. expressing her love for
France and her gratitude to the EN-
peror of Austria, she proceeds to the
list Of her requests:
Having always regarded my nephew
Henri, and my niece Therese as nv
children, give them my material
benediction, I institute my
nephew, Comte de Chambord, as my
universal legatee give and be-
queath to my niece, Therese, Arch
duchess of Austria. Comtesse de
