HILO, February 23.-Plans are ON
foot to establish a branch of the Y.
Nj. G. A. in Hilo and L. A. Thurston
is interesting himself deeply in the
matter according to reports received
from Honolulu, and there is no doubt
that such an organization would be
huge success in this city.
The st. James Hall gymnasium
would appear to be the ideal begin
ming place for the proposed branch
of the Y M. c. A. and, later on,
larger place might be secured. Ho-
nolulu people subscribed a couple Of
hundred thousand dollars for the new
lrilding in that city, and there is no
doubt that the wealthy men of Hilo
V ould help out a local movement on
a smaller scale.
The new gymnasium at the Homo.
lulu Y. M. c. A. will be fitted out
with apparatus which has been
bought in the States. The fittings of
the old gymnasium could, no doubt,
be purchased for Hilo, and as all the
appliances are in good order, there
would be a chance of fitting out the
local athletic hall at very little ex-
pense. The movement is an excellent
one and it is to be hoped that L. A.
Thurston gets all the backing needed
in the affair

the circumstances surrounding the disap-

lowing the conviction Of her husband,
Count Patrick 0'Brien de Lassy, OF the
murder OF Count Vassilli Bourtmln.
The countess was discovered on Sat.

sicians was said to have disclosed that
she had lost her mind.
1t now appears that during the trial
the countess received letters from per-
sons who offered to organize plan
through which De Lassy might escape
his sentence to penal servitude for life.
This has given new turn TO the
temporary absence OF the countess from

rogated to determine whether or not she
is really insane as at first thought.

GROUNDS HER In HARB0R

Mazatlan, Mexico, Feb. 2l.--With al
most the whole population of the city
praying, screaming and wringing its
hands, an unnamed pilot of the Pacific
steamship Benito Juarez won race
against flames that outrivalled that of
the Prairie Bell and Jim Bludso.
Starting miles out at sea on a vessel
that was a column of fire from stem to
stern, this man held the wheel of the
little steamer until he had beached her
in the shadows of the harbor, where
her crew and every one OF her liz
scorched and singed passengers We're
caught in the arms of waiting boat
men and launchmen. Then perhaps he
jumped, or il may be his charred body
will be found in the blackened pile OF
debris
The Benito Juarez long piled between
Mamtlin and lnglaterra, carrying cargo
and passengers. She was popular and
her commander, Capt, Miranda, was
known as a skilful navigator. Her cargo
as she left Inglaterra on her last trip
was tequilla (which contains heavy
percentage Of alcohol) and heavy ship
ment of matches.
1t is now known that the fire had
started in the coal bunkers several hours
before the pilot boarded, but he was the
first to detect the strong sulphurous
odor An investigation showed that the
flames had about reached the matches,
and before a hose could be attached there
was flash from this inilammable mate
rial which shot the fire into the te-
guills.
After that il was only a question Of
getting to shallow water, for it was seen
no power on earth could save the ship
The watchers on shore saw the fire
shoot up from the forward and after
matches and from the cabin companion
ways simultaneously. Those with
glasses could see the passengers huddled
to the windward side Of the ship by
the captain, and they saw the hose
turned for time on the flames, then
Oh the passengers These men, women
and children hung half over the rail-
and the pumps, as long as they worked
threw the water over them in showers
In the meantime the pilot stood at
the wheel with the fire and smoke roll
ing around him in broad sweeps. The
engines held. and the crowd which had
grown to thousands. burst into shouting
and tears when, coming at her highest
speed, the little ship swung out Of the
channel and showed her burning PROV
into the mud. Then came the scramble,
men, women and children going over
board headlong, followed BY the crew.
By the time Capt Miranda made his
jump there was a crash, bridge and pilot
house had gone in. No one saw the
pilot jump

USE DYE TO SAVE
FISH SHRINKAGE
Seizures Show Smoked" Products Are
Treated with Coloring to Prevent
Loss by Smoking.

Philadelphia, Feb. 81 The dairy and
food bureau OF the state agricultural
department has discovered that large
number of delicatessen and other stores
of this city have been for long time
selling dyed" fish as a substitute for
smoked fish. When Harry 2. Cassidy,
the agent OF the bureau, told the retail
store proprietors what they were doing
they were surprised, as they had pur-
chased the stuff as genuine smoked fish
Cassidy's attention TO the food article
was attracted by it's rich red color Pur-
chasing some of the fish, he had it exam.
ined, and the expert reported that he
could dye wool with the eoloring matter
extracted from it. In smoking fish there
is loss of 10 pounds to every 100
pounds, it is said, but in dyeing the
article there is no loss at all. This per
mitted the violators of the law to under
sell their competitors in the smoked
fish industry. The dairy and food bu-
reau promises prosecutions this week
against certain wholesale dealers.
