Leaders Busy Today and To-
morrow Drafting PIanks
for Introduction

Planks of much interest to the city
and county of Honolulu will be pre-
scented next Monday morning when
the Republican delegates who repre-
scented Oahu at the recent territorial
platform convention will meet as the
county platform convention. The con.
vention will be called to order at 10
o'clock in the makai pavilion OF the
Young, Hotel by K. NJ. Duncan, vice
chairman of the county central COM
mittee.
B. Won Damms resignation as chair.
man of the county committee has
oeen on file long time, but the com
mittee at its meeting last night re-
fused TO accept the resignation. or
rather first accepted IL and then re-
considered its action. The reason for
this is that the committee does not
wish chairman VINO has taken sides
in the Rice-Kuhio competition for the
.delegateship nomination. and no chair
man is available in the present county
committee who can Till the Qualifica-
tion of not having declared himself
So II is probable the committee will
not have chairman until after the
primary election. Al that time new
committee will be chosen and of
course either Rice CT kuhio viii have
been eliminated as party candidate
For chairman OF the county plat,
form convention next Monday A.
Lewis, Jr., Clarence Crabbe and Law
renee NJ. Judd are mentioned. There
is no fight for the place and the cleo
ton will be harmonious. In fact,
harmony will be inst as sincere as it
was in the territorial convention ac-
cording to reports today.
Among the important matters to be
brought up for possible county issues
are a change of municipal election
dates on this island and an amend.
ment to the frontage tax laws.
The last legislature changed the
dates of county elections in Maui, Ha-
wall and Kauai counties from Novem-
Der to May, in order to separate the
county and territorial campaigns.
Senator A. F. Judd introduced bill
making a similar change for Oahu
but the bill got little support from the
Oahu delegation and eventually was
buried. The idea has been strongly
Endorsed since 1912 and will be pre-
Sented to the next Legislature. The
Municipal Research Club, a non-par-
tisan organization devoted to the study
of municipal problems, has once in
dorsed this change and today sent
around to it's. members circu-

HILO, July 24-"Henry Martin. Hilo
-nothing-A. w. Hanson, Honolulu"
This succinct message, received by
Deputy Sheriff Martin Wednesday
afternoon clears up to some extent
the mystery surrounding the death
last week of David Hawai-. a home
steader of Pepeekeo, who passed away
after a series of commissions on Sun
day of last week and in whose stom-
ach DR.. Sexton afterward found what
he believed to be traces of an unusual
poison.
The case aroused considerable spe-
culation among the authorities, with
the result that Dill Bailey, a negro
boy who had been with Hawai- when
the latter took III, was placed under
arrest, coroner'S jury called and the
body eventually sent last Friday to
A. w. Hanson. the government chem
list at Honolulu, for examination.

In connection with the turn over
In .Servia, Theodore Macmillan Streu
may appear again as claimant for
the throne. A few years ago Streu,
who was then station agent at Coun-
ty Line, la, introduced himself to the
public as the riehtful heir to the Ser.
Wan throne. He exhibited documents
to show that he was a descendant of
King Lazar of Servia, who was con-
quered by the Turks In 1904, royal
lineage which goes hundred years
further back than that of the present
ruling family of Karageorgevitch.
"Peter has no right to the Servian
throne" said Streu. "Neither had the
murdered King Alexander or Queen
Draea. If my proofs were examined
and treated with fairness, the Servian
government would have no aIterna.
tive but to make me king. have
made formal application to have this
done, and have placed in influential
hands copies of the documents.
"When King Lazar was killed, two
centuries ago, Milosh obiliteh, prince
of Shumadia and Shabatz, husband OF
the daughter of the king and heir to
the throne, was killed also. Madame
obiIftch lived for a time in the cas-.
tie of Shabatz near Belgrade but was
murdered by the Turks. Her son, An
dria Royn Won Lazar, who was seven
years old, escaped by reason of the
faithfuIness of an old servant. He
saw his mother cut to pieces and his
home burned. The boy and his fol-
lowers lived for long time in the
Shumadian. forest. . .-......

From this time on the family rec

cendants of King Lazar had taken.
