grancy some time ago when he was
ordered out Of town by Officer Walter
George. The man would not talk af.
ter his arrest, except about matters
that have no close connection with
the affair with the chief Of police. He
merely said that he believed that he
is losing his mind and tried to imply
that he was not responsible for his
criminal attack upon an officer Of the
law. When asked concerning his
work he said that he was not certain
whether he worked at the glass fac.
tory Tuesday or not. He is a large
negro and, according to statements
made after his arrest, has been a
bully, more or less, among his negro
associates.
Chief Clements was taken to his
home on East Hamtramck street after
his wounds had been dressed and is
recovering from the effects OF his ex.
perience. He did not intend to arrest
the man when he learned his condi-
tion on first arriving at the Latherns
home, but merely intended to protect
Mrs. Latherns against any possible
violence and to attend to Rice in such
ways as the occasion might demand.
He had little time to use gentleness,
however, but was forced to exert ev-
cry effort to save himself from ser.
ious injury from the hands Of the
man. The chief said that the first
thought that entered his mind after
having been struck the cowardly blow
was to use his revolver, but what he
termed better judgment came to him
just in time. There was not third
person In the room and he was afraid
that he might have considerable trou.

charge may be placed against the man
In the cage, he will. in all probability,
be unable to attack anybody else with
a chair for some time.

HoFFMAN'S APPOINTMENT
DISSATIFlES HARDESTY
(From Thursday Advertiser)

James Lynch, prominent Democrat
and a delegate to the national cOnven-
ton of his party, has been removed by
the new board of supervisors from his
position as examiner of chauffeurs, TO
make room for Theodore Hoffman, said
to be recent convert to the party, and
thereby n division has been created
among the Democrats, with some bitter.
ness of feeling.
Supervisor Hardesty, strong Lynch
adherent declared yesterday that the
appointment of Hoffman was trough
work. "I'm a Democrat, said Har-
destY" and i don't approve of GUST
ing a man who has been prominent in
the affairs of the party, and least of
all to make room for a man who only
joined the party last Saturday. ! un.
derstand that Markham and Hoffman
were once business associates, and
furthermore Hoffman is now an en-
ploye of the Alexander Young Hotel
Company which is interested in an au-
tOmObile agency. II looks very much
to me az if Hoffman owed his appoint
ment TO the auto agency, and ! have IL
on good authority that this same agency
hiss been forward in the past in protest
ing against the appointment of en-.
plOyes of other automobile agencies as
examiner of chuufeurs
understand that when the Office was
created this company was the only con
cern 10 file a protest against such Hp.
pointments and that IL also protested
the appointment NJ liilo of ma employe
Of another auto agency
'Tho auto agency in question may
have had nothing 10 do with Hoffman =
selection, but IL doesn't look rightg'
Friends Of Hoffman assert with
fery0r that Bic is not recent convert

BUILDING ACTIVITY
IN HIL0 KEEPS UP

HILO, January 6.-The building ac.
tivity of ililo during the past month
or so has been unusually great, the total
represented in permits issued during
December alone amounting to $ll0,-
$50. This is due to several reasons.
First of all, the permit for the con.
struction Of the Union school, which
was issued to Lord and Young, accounts
for 100000 Then the fear that the
building ordinance might pass, COMPEL.
ing the construction of only fireproof
OF fire resisting buildings within the
business section, caused many property
owners to take up permits in the way
of getting anchors to windward.
The biggest single builder is Judge
w. s. Wise whose building on the cor
ner of Waianuenue and Bridge streets,
for which the ground is now being
broken, will cost $4,000. The permit
taken for the other Wise building, on
the corner Of Bridge and King street,
states a valuation of $l3, 800.

out of these hundred applications
only one is from a white man. The
others are all Hawaiians.
At the present time there is one
vacancy on the foot police through the
dismissal of Officer Peter Kihea and
three vacancies on the mounted police.
Added to this, the new board of SUI
pervisors will give Sheriff Jarrett six
new policemen for his patrol squad,
making ten appointments that are now
in order.
But under the new procedure that
is to be put in force by Sheriff Jar
rett TO raise the efficiency of his force
some of the applicants may receive n
shock, In the first place he is going
to put all of them through "a personal
examination in which letters from
