Lovely Composition With

LiIiuokalani, reyered Quen OF Ha
wall, seated in an armchair in one oil

lulu last night through the voice q!
Madame Mariska Aldrich.
"Kuu Pua ! Paoakalanf' was the
name of the queens song. sung last
night by the Metropolitan Opera Com
Pany diva, and its singing was one ot
the many impressive moments OF
Madame Aldrich's second concert in
this city. The song had never been
sung In public prior to last night, and
were given emphasis by the singer.
Madame Mariska Aldrich was In
superb voice last night She showed
conclusively her ability to convey def.
nite emotions and moods in her sing.
ing and swept her hearers along in
songs grave, light, haunting, sensu.
Gus, somber and CHEEKY. ..."
Opening the program we're songs
in four languages. She gave as the
initial number Still Vie Die Nacht,
by C. Bohm, and sang II with a depth
CT feeling and wealth OF expression
reedful to the lovely verse. ..
"Mein Schatzelein," a gay thing in
vivid contrast to the sofnber tints Of
the preceding number, displayed the
singer in mood entirely opposite
Her next number, however, "J'ai
Pleure en- Reve," gave her opportunity
to free her great dramatic ability, and
this song struck home note of poig-
nant, throbing sorrow. A lifting Hun.
garian waltz, "Hullo Falevel," and a
brilliant show piece, the aria from
Madame Butterfly" concluded the
group.
When Ernest Gay appeared in four
songs, Allah" when Song is Sweet"
Moon Lullaby" and "Invictus," he
sent thrill of agreeable surprise
through the audience, particularly II
his second number, true lyric sung
from the heart. Gays voice is rici,,
vibrant and of a pronounced sympa-
thetic quality.
One of the most delightful periods
of tho evening was a group of three
duets by Madame Aldrich and Mr..
Gay. "Abschied Der Vogel," "a
Sire inlet Full of Flowers" and Near
est : hid Dearest" These were excep-
tion lily lovely and called forth re-
peafkd encores. A group of songs by
MAI me Aldrich, followed by thu
queens song, ended the program.
Before the concert was two-thirds
over bouquets fairly filled the stage,
which had been adorned with tropical
verdure. Mr.. Gay was given SO many
leis at the same time that he was
nearly hidden in gorgeous blossoms
when he tried to wear them all.
The work of Bernice Steven, accom-
PIANIST, was especially notable, her
playing never obtruding on the yocab'
zation, yet at the same time follow
ing in perfect accord the varying
moods of each number. The audi
ence was not large, but its aloha for
both singers was manifested spon-
taneously and frequently.

BELATED POLICE REPORT
SHOWS BIG BUSINESS IN
GAMBLING AND DRINKING

A rather belated police report for
August which was signed late Wed
nesday afternoon by Sheriff Charles
H. Rose and presented TO the board
of supervisors Wednesday night shows
more arrests and large total of fines,
costs and bail forfeitures In the same
month for the last 10 years. The lat
ter was $3790.50.
Dry as it may appear, there are
some interesting bits of information
to be cleaned from this report. For
instaa.s, the Chinese come first in
Der of offenders, japanese second
and Hawaiians, in whose land the
whole game is played, are third. An
other remarkable figure is the one
showing 2S6 arrests for gambling with
$1SS2.20 realized from gambling penal
ties. Sixteen we're arrested for hav-
ing opium.
There were 572 arrests made last
month of which 1870 were Chinese, 118
Japanese and As Hawaiians. Gam
bling came first in numbers, then as
sault with 81 and drunkenness third
with As. The roll of the boozers,
however, properly belongs second, for
all those intoxicated ones detained tor
the provost guard and put in for the
night for safe keeping are not inelud-
ed in the report.

AMERICAN TROOPS
TO Be WITHDRAWN
AMERICAN AND MEXICAN COM
MISSION FINALLY COME TO
UNDERSTANDING.
BORDER PATROL ARRANGED
Forty Days Withdrawn From Mex
lean Soil Without Capturing
Bandit Villa.

| Atlantic City, N. J.-Withdrawal of
the American troops who went into
Mexico in pursuit of Francisco Villa
| after the Columbus raid, and the pa
| trolling of the border by the respective
armies of the United States and Mex
leo was agreed to in a protocol signed
here Friday, Nov. "a, by the members
of the American joint commission
seeking to adjust differences between
the two countries. Adjournment of
the conference sessions was taken i'm
mediately to allow Alberto j. PAM, one
Of the Mexican commissioners, to go
to Mexico end place the proposals be-
fore First Chief Carranza for ap-
prevail.
The plan, characterized by Secre-
tary Of the Interior Lane, chairman Of
the American commission, as the be-
ginning of a policy (which will make
a Mexico that we can live with" pro-
vides that Gen. Pershing shall bring
his men across the border within 40
days after the protocol is finally ap
proved by the two governments.
The admonition is contained, how
ever, that the United States reserves
the right to pursue into Mexico any
bandit force that crosses the interna-
tional line. The question Of co-opera-
ton on the border is left to the COM
handing officers Of the two armies
there.
After the protocol was signed Sec
rotary Lane issued statement defin-
ing to a certain extent the policy of
the United States government toward
Mexico. He stated that he believes
Carranza a strong man and should be
given "full chance" adding that
Mexico will either do right without
our help or with 1t. This is her
choice"

FAMOUS AUTHOR is DEAD
Jack London Dies Suddenly From an
Attack of Uraemic POISONING,

Attack or OracmiC FoiSonin9.
Santa Rosa, Cal.-Jack London, the
author, died at his Glen Ellen, Cal,
ranch near here Tuesday, victim Of
uraemic poisoning. London was TAX
en- i'll Tuesday night and was found
unconscious Wednesday morning by
a servant who went to his room to
awaken him.
His condition at first alarmed his
sister, Mrs. Eliza Shepard, who sum-
moned physicians from this city. 1t
was at first believed that the author
was victim of ptomaine poisoning.
DR.. J. Wilson Shells of San Francisco,
a close friend of the writer, was sum
moned during the day and declared
the patients condition was serious.
From the time London was found
in the morning he did not regain con-
seriousness. About midday he seemed
to rally, but later suffered relapse
and sank rapidly until the end came.
Besides his sister, Mrs. Shepard,
London is survived by a daughter,
who is a student at the University OF
California; his mother, who lives In
Oakland Cal, and his wife, Charmion
London. Mrs. London was with her
husband when death came.

WILL PASS ON ADAMsON ACT
Hearing vii Be Expedited Before U. 8.
Supreme Court-AIl Attorneys
Concurring.

Washington. - Atty. Gen. Gregory
and lawyers speaking for most of the
important railroad systems Of the
country were in a long conference,
but failed to agree on terms by which
one Of the many railroad suits attack
ing the Adamson act might be made a
test and expedited to the supreme
court for an early decision on it's con-
stitutionality.
Both the encouragement and the
railroad counsel declined to name the
point of disagreement, but it was un-
derstood that both parties still are of
the opinion that test case should be
had and that the main question is in
selecting the particular case.
The department of justice is said to
have insisted that the case of the Mis-
souri,, Oklahoma & Gulf, in which Fed
eral Judge Houk in Kansas City held
the Adamson act unconstitutional
should be made the test case. The
railroad attorneys, however, were not
convinced that the issues presented in
it are sufficiently broad to cover all
points that might be developed
against the Adamson act in a case
involving much larger property. They
were inclined to insist that the Atchi-
son, Topeka & Santa Fe case should
present the questions in issue more
completely and with more justice to
the carriers.
1t was pointed out that the railroad
men here have had no opportunity to
read the complaint filed in the Mis-
souri,, Oklahoma & Gulf case, although
they are familiar with the actions be-
gun by the larger roads and are salts
fled that they cover the ground so
thoroughly that the entire argument
for the railroads could be made on
them in the supreme court.

Fight on State Tax Board.

right on SLdt6 ak 6Odr0.
Mississippi's new state board Of tax
equalization has a rocky road to tray
ell. A test of its powers is soon to- be
made before the supreme court, and If
that tribunal fails to impose the re.
strictions sought, referendum cleo
tion to vote the organization out of ex-
istence is probable.
Antagonist to the state board Of
equalization is due chiefly to the fact
that a horizontal raise of personally
assessments, affecting practically ev-
cry county in the state, was recently
ordered, and the taxpayers who are
now going to the county seats to set
tie their annual obligations are indulg-
ing in bitter complaints in many in
stances double what they expected to
pay.
The supreme court test of the pow
ers of the state board of equalization
comes in the shape of an appeal made
by the First National Bank at Hatties-
burg in which the contention is made
that the CODY is without authority to
review the findings of the board Of SUI
pervisors in assessment matters. The
contention is also made that the stat
ute creating the board is unconstitu-
tional.
Thus far no organization has been
formed for the movement to carry the
issue to the polls, and it is hardly prob
able that this will be done until the
supreme court passes on the test case.
IL that tribunal should hold that the
state board of equalization is acting
within its rights, then it is practically
certain that in each county petitions
will be circulated, directed to the Sec
rotary of state, asking that an cleo
ton be ordered on the subject, which
can be done If 5000 signatures are
secured.
Opponents of the state board Of
equalization are encouraged to believe
that they can defeat the measure at a
referendum election.

AGED AUSTRIAN RULER DIES
Emperor Francis Joseph Dies After
Occupying Throne for Sixty
Eight Years.

London.-Emperor Francis Joseph
cied Tuesday night at Schoernbrunn
| Castle.
Franz Josef has been called the lem.
peror of sorrows" of Austria because
of the long record of tragedies that at.
tended his reign. The curse of the
Hapsburgs" has haunted him in his
declining years. OF all the figures in
contemporary history his was at once
one of the most magnificent and the
most pathetic. With long and event
full life behind him, life overcast by
disasters that would have unseated a
feebler ruler and saddened by sorrows
that would have wrecked a weaker
man, in the evening of his days he
bore the burden of the dual crown I'M
bowed.
His was the proudest house in Eu-
rope, and his the most solitary and
isolated of all royal lives. There was
little comfort for him in his sorrows,
but he worked on unrelentingly and
died "steadfast" at his post.
There were many who said that the
unprecedented list of family disasters
that attended his life was due to a
curse that hung over the house Of
Hapsburg, uttered by the aged Coun-
tess Carolyn, whose son was put to
death for participating in the Hun
agrian uprising in 1S4S. She called
n hnn IN hor
piness of the emperor, to exterminate
his family, to strike him through those
that he loved, to wreck his life and
ruin his children.
Ruled Since 1848.
Franz Josef was born Aug. IS, 1880.
He was the son of the Archduke Fran
els, son of Emperor Francis l of Aus
$ria. He came to the throne in 1848
as the successor of his uncle, Ferdi-
nand I, who had been forced to alb
dictate
The emporor's first task was to sub
due the Hungarian revolt and to eff.
feet the pacification Of Lombardy.
This being accomplished, an era of re-
action began. In 1859 Lombardy was
coded to Sardinia, and by the war
with Prussia in 1866 Austria was al
together excluded from Germany. At
the same time she was forced to hand
over Venice to the king Of Sardinia,
who had fought as the ally of Prussia.
After this the emperor adopted a
policy of Cancellation toward the ma
within his dominion. A few
years later he became king Of Hun
gary and took the oath on the Hun
garian constitution.

Carranza Troops Return Fire of Raid.
ers and Succeed In Putting Them
To FIight-Heavy Artillery
Fire Won the Day.

JuareZ, Mexico.-Four times Thurs
day Villa attacked the first line
trenches which defend Chihuahua
City, and each time he was repulsed
leaving his dead and wounded on the
plains outside the city to the south,
reports to military headquarters re.
ceived by Gen. Gonzales here from the
besieged city said.
At IL o'clock Thursday morning
(mountain time) the high-crowned
hats of the bandits were seen to the
south along the Mexican Central main
line, according to these messages. The
battle was opened few minutes later
with a salvo from cannon on Santa
Rosa Hill, the key to the state cap
ital. The first and second line trench
es, protected by barbed wire entangle-
ments, took up the fighting, and by
noon a general engagement was in
progress along the entire southern
line, which continued through the ear
ly afternoon.
At that time the booming of large
caliber guns on Santa Rosa Hill and
other artillery stationed along the first
line trenches was so deafening that it
was almost impossible to hear the click
of the telegraph instruments, the mil
itary operator in Chihuahua City told
the operator in Juarez.
At o'clock the battle was still
raging, the apparent advantage being
with the government forces Villa is
reported by Gen. Gonzales to have at
least $500 men, practically all of whom
are armed and mounted. He is also
believed to have machine guns, but no
heavy artillery. For this reason, the
20 or more heavy field guns of Gen
Trevino's command were able to rake
the advancing lines Of Villa bandits,
the messages from the state capital
stated.
Bandit Leader Carries crutch.
A sortie by Carranza cavalry, sup
ported by artillery, resulted in the cap
ture Of many Villa prisoners who were
without ammunition and had gone
since morning without food or water,
another message declared.
Villa in person was leading his
forceI against the Carranza troops, ac-
corning 10 the reports received at the
Juarez military headquarters from
Chihuahua City.
The bandit leader was said to be rid
ing horseback, with his crutch strap
ped to his saddle. He was said by the
de facto authorities to have approx
mately $500 men. AS he is reported
to have more than 5000 troops under
his command the remainder of the
bandits are believed to be advancing
to re-enforc him.
