Had Lincoln Beachey's life been
spared, it was his fondest desire 10
visit Honolulu. His death Sunday, due
to the collapse Of his birlane, not to
any failure of his own control, de
stroyed the possibility Of what hi
hoped to make one Of the most spec,
tasular. flights Of his, career. 81.
He and his manager, ftBin - Pickens
frequently called at the San. Francisco
Offices Of the Hawaiian promotion com
mittee during the past few months Il
discuss the possibilities OF a flight from
Honolulu TO one Of the other islands.
Hawaii was, their FIRST thought bul
when they learned the distance the.
subsequently decided on. Maui. Some
thing that never had been done befof,
was the idea in their minds--a fligh
rom one island to another in mid

Include Period In Academy 2

An item OF cong ressional news \of in,
terest Ito IDEAL army and naval officers
is contained in the Washington dis
patches to the Coast papers. On the
day before Adjournment the senate
passed Claims Bill which provides
Cor an alteration Of the army and
navy officers longevity service act, to
make the term Of service begin with
the date Of entrance into the military
or naval academy. Two years ago con
gress altered the act, making the five
years for the first "fogy' begin with
the date of commission in the army
to begin with the classes graduated in
June, 1913. The passage of this act
will tend to increase Immediately the
pdy of officers who have been gradu.

With officers of longer service. Included
in the same bill is provision to pay Ger

PIONEERING PROBLEM

Even in his moments of emotional en-
thusihsm the hard,headed Chinese does
not lose control of his reflective and
critical faculties. .....
After a night of oratOry and en-,
thusiasm, after appaluding speeches ad
vising them to resist Japan TO the
utterinost of their strength and the last
dollar, In their pockets, the, Chinese of
Honolulu are taking forty-eight hours
in which to think II over.
Tomorrow night, the Chinese United
Societies, in its King street rooms, will
decide whether. after all. It is ~"
part of wisdom TO raise money here for
the overthrow of Yuan Shih-kai il Meet
be, and a campaign Of resistancr to
what many Chinese feel to be the Ell

LETTERS FROM TEACHER

Numerous letters from teachers on
the mainland, have greatly puzzled Sec
rotary Taylor of the promotion commit
tee during the past six weeks. Every
mail brings queries from some teacher
who has made application for a teach
ing position in Hawaii. Mr.. Taylor
thinks some educational paper has con
fused Hawaii with the Philippines,
where education is under government
supervision.

Ellamar Supt. was
 Tried at Valdez
Charged With Failure to Report Ac-
 cident but Was Acquitted.

L. L. Middlecamp, superintendent of tie mine at Ellamar, was tried last week in the commissioners court at Valdez on the charge of failing to re- port an accident at the mine. The jury acquitted him and the papers a. Valdez made no mention of the fact that he had been brought up at all. The prosecution was caused by Will liam A. Molony, the territorial mine inspector. Ellamar has its own United States Commissioner but as he is the bookkeeper of the company the trial was transferred to Valdez. Two men were recently killed at Ellamar but that was not the accident from which the charge arose. Gas blow outs occur from time to time in the mine and cause some rather strong explosions.

BRITISH WANT TO QUIT BALKANS

LONDON Dec 8.-A serious difference of opinion has risen between the British and French in the matter of the Balkans according to reliable information secured here The British government favOrs withdrawing from the Balkans altogether as it believes the allies have at tempted late to stem the Teutonc and Bulgarian tides in that quarter but the French insist upon carrying on the campaign there to the bitter end In the council of recently held in Paris the British representatives tried to show where the forces in the Balkans could be used to better advantage elsewhere. Some of the French authorities apparently believe that Britain chiefly cerned with the defense of her territories in Egypt and elsewhere but France evidently determined to stick it out The French minister of at the council is said to have struck the table with his ist when the British proposed to abandon the Balkans and to have cried out the famous words of Marshal MacMahon; "Jy sus; Jy reste"-"I'm there; I'll stay there"

ADMITS LETTING ANOTHER
 DEFECTIVE BABY DIE AWAY
Chicago Has One More Sensation Like That Created by Dr.
 Haiselden.

CHICAGO, Dec. 8.-Dr. J. Falter- mayer has admitted that he let an infant named Grace Werder die when an operation would have saved her life. He also says he consulted Dr. Haiseden who was charged with having let another baby die some time ago. Baby Werder was an imbecile and Faltermayer had come to the con- clusion that she would be an imbecile all her life. He declares that letting her live would have been a crime while letting her die was an act of grace and mercy. He candidly de- clares that he could have saved her life without a doubt and the case has given rise to another passionate con troversy. The doctor will probably have to answer the charge but it is expected that, like Haiselden, he will be acquitted.

DEMOCRATS TO
 MEET ST. LOUIS
RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED FOR WILSON'S NOMINATION
 AND ELECTION.

WASHINGTON, Dec. S.-As had been expected the Democrats las, evening chose St. Louis as the Nation. al convention city for the com ng eIcc- tion. The convention date has been fixed at Juneu IA.
 The National Committee also adopted resolutions calling for the re- nomination and reelection of Wool row Wilson. The feeling is practical ly unanimous in favor of the presi- dent. There is a strong body Of opin- ion which seems to suggest the be- lief that the coming election will be fought on different issues from or dinary elections. One new issue will likely arise from the differences of opinion about the European war. Wilson's attack in his message to congress on "hyphenated Americans" has apparently added fuel to the fire in pro-German ranks and they swear to fight the present administration. They even claim that they won some of the recent elections for the Repub- lican candidates, and they particular ly claim to have elected Mccall over Walsh. Republicans hardly deny the belief that every former Democrat of German nationality will vote Republi- can next time.

GERMANY TO RECALL ATTACHES

WASHINGTON, Dec. 8.-Gemany is now apparent y yielding her position with respect to the request for recall of BOyEd and von Papen and she will most likely not insist on demanding the giving of for the call It is known that von Benstorf has advised his gov enment to acquiesce the desires of the American gov ernment when he found that Wilson would rather risk breach of all diplomatic relations than to accede to the de mand of Berlin to give reasons why two attaches should be recalled.
 NEW YORK; Dec. 8-It was announced this after noon from source that can be regarded almost official that Boy-Ed and von Papen will depart from the United States next Tuesday, This statement is regarded here as confirming the belief that the German government had recalled the attaches even while asking the United States for an explanation.
 LONDON, Dec 8.-Sir Edward Grey, foreign minist- CT informed the house of this afternoon that Great Britain will refuse to grant safe transportation to Boy-Ed and vOn Papen even If Washington requests it.

First Passenger
 Electric Arrives
Famous Milwaukee Overland Enters
 Butte Without Steam.

BUTTE, Dec. S.-The Olympian crack Milwaukee passenger train ar rived here yesterday under electric power and this is the first time on record that an overland passenger was run without coal. She made just as good time if not better and her trip is regarded as sccess and as the marking of new era in railroad work. Today the regular freight train over the mountains will be sent out under electricity to be tested and the test is being watched with the greatest interest as it will probably have strong influence on the future running of trains all over the country.

Republicans Still
 Continue Winning
Fourteen Cities in Mass. Defeat Democrats on National
 Party Lines.

BOSTON, Dec. S.-The Republicans yesterday carried fourteen cities in this state in elections fought on strictly national party lines and the feeling is general that the state will go overwhelmingly Republican at the national election. Northampton re- turned from the dry ranks to the wet and knocked prohibition out cold by a good majority. In few instances local questions might have exercised some influence but there is no ques- ton that the Republicans have good reason to be encouraged by the re- suits. The pro-German vote is said to have been thrown entierly to the Republicans.

FL PASO, Dec. 8.-Fourteen wo- men all in one bunch and at one time have been lined against a wall and shot by order of General Villa, and only short distance from the American line. They were accused of being Carranza spies and Villa claims that he found discriminating letters on them. The scene at the execution is described as one of the most awful in the annals of war. The sentence was carried into effect two days ago and nearly full company of soldiers was used to take the women's lives.

AUSTRIAN SHELLS AMERICAN

WASHINGTON, Dec. 8.-The commander of the United States cruiser Desones reports that the Stand ard Oil tanker Petrote has been shelled by TeutOnc super-submarne and that one of the wounded The submarine carried the Austrian flag but until the de- tails of the occurrence have been reported this govern ment will be content with asking the Austrian govern ment for full report. The Petroe was formerly ship running under German registry but when sheed she had American flags painted both sides This is believed to be the first time that ship with American flags painted on the hull was interfered with.

REPORT BIG TANKER SUNK

Standard Oil tanker Communipaw has been sunk by a Teutonic submarine the Mediterranean with the loss of
 hirtynine lives including the lives of five American of icers This report however conflicts with another re- port which says the vessel arrived at Alexandria Egypt last Sunday and will remain there several days The lat
 report seems to be the better founded of the tWo The first story includes the statement that the ship was sunk by an unidentified submarine. It is thought here that if that story is fact and if five American officers lost their lives the United States government can no long, CT refuse to take serious action
