MAKES VALUABLE FIND.
HONOLULU, Oct. 17. Archi-
varian Lydecker has made another
interesting find while delving in
the musty nooks and crannies of
the Capitol for old documents. He
found in tho closets of the Gover
nor's olhco a number of old books
dating from 1844 until 1889, in
which the names of those who call
ed on the sovereigns, who sat on
tho throne of Hawaii during that
period, have been inscribed, in
most cases by the callers them
selves. A more interesting collec
tion of old autographs it would be
hard to find. Mixed amoncr the
names of prominent kaamamas
who diecL long ago, but whose
names a'ro still 'familiar to the
generation today, ono finds tho
signatures of various celebrated
persons from tho outer world, who
happened to pass by Honolulu
many years ago.
Tho first of these books was start
ed in 1844, the first entry being;
'George Brown, Esq., United States
Commissioner, to pay his respects
to His Majesty on his coming to
Honolulu."
This is followed by: "R. C. Wyl
he Esq., H. B. M. Pro-Consul, to
present his respects to His Majesty
and the respects of Admiral Tho
mas."
This is followed by pages and
pages of entries, among them boing
numerous lists of officers of various
naval vessels who called to pay
their respects to tho sovereigns
Among them tne fallowing is es
pecially interesting.

Wm. Bradley, Asst. Surgeon.
This call was paid just previous
to tho time when the Levant left
Honolulu on her last voyage. She
started for San Francisco and was
never heard of again, although she
is believed by many to have struck
an unknown island in a portion of
tho ocean which is out of tho way
of the general run of vessels.

pears: "February 22, audienco by

(Signed) Laura Keene.

played in Ford's Theater during
tho performance at which Lincoln
was shot.

The
signature of Lord Charles Beres
ford, tho celebrated British Ad
miral, who is now in charge of the
Mediterranean squadron, appears
as follows: "Charles Beresford,

was a jolly midshipman, whnatt ad
ventures and pranks here are still
remembered by old residents,
Under tho date of Sept. 25, 1872,
appear the signatures of the Princes
Augustus and Philip of Saxe Coburg
Gotha.
After this, on the next pace, is
tho following solemn entry:
"Lot Kamehameha, born Dec.
11th, 1830. Ascended this throne
November 30, 1863. Died Dec. 11th,
at 20 m. past 10 a. m, 1872 at Iola
ni ralace, and his remains laid in
tho Royal Tomb, in Nuuanu Val
ley, Jany. 11, 1873."'
"William C. Lunalilo, elected
King January 8th, 1873, and inaU'
guranted at tho Stone Church,

signature of S. L. demons, better
known as Mark Twain, the incom

GETS AFTER THE DOCTORS.
HONOLULU, Oct. 17. Tho 1B-
sue between the doctors and the
Territory in the matter of phyai
cians securing licenses is to bo test
ed. A test caBO was begun this
morning when tho name of Dr. J,
T. McDonald appeared on tho police
court calendar. Ho was- served
with a penal summons which read
as follows:
"That one, Dr. J. T. McDonald
did at Honolulu, Island of Oahu
Terntorv of Hawaii, during one
month laBt past, prior to and in
eluding tho 6th day of October,
1905. violate Section 1068 of tho
Revised Laws of Hawaii (as amend'
ed by Act 48 of the Session Laws of
1905), for that ho did at Buch time
and place practise medicine and
surgery without having first ob
tained from tho Treasurer of the
Territory of Hawaii a license so to
do."
This law which he is charged
with disregarding was passed at the
scsaion of tho last legislature The
doctors have resisted tho law and it
had been decided to bring tho test
case. Tho caso will probably bo
called again this afternoon. A de
murer will probably bo hied and
tho matter takon to tho upper
court.

WOULD KILL TO END PAIN.
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 11.-
Miss Helen Hall of Cincinnati for
hours today vainly endeavored to
have tho American Humane Asso
ciation place tho seal of its indorse
ment on tho proposition to put an
end by tho use of a'nacsthetics to
tho lives of persons hopelessly in?
iured or lying in agonizing death
throes from disease.
While pleading with the society
to take Uub up aB part of its work
she graphically portrayed tho tor
turo of an engineer in a wreck,
pinned underneath a ponderous
engine while tho flames were slow
ly roasting him. She said that she
asked for just the same mercy that
is extendend to a wounded ani
mal without question-a quick end
to its sufferings.
Miss Hall added: "For tho past
two years I havo always carried
a vial of choroform with mo when
riding on trains for use in case of
emergency, as I was brought to
consider this subject through this
horrible experience."
Supporting Miss Hall's proposi
tion, which was ruled out by Chair
man Dr. William O. Stillman of
Albany on the ground that the
articles of incorporation of tho
society confined its operation to
cases of cruelty to animals or chil
dren, Mrs. M. Totten of Washing'
ton. ono of tho founders of the
organization, warmly exclaimed
"If I wore in a wreck and saw
cases such as havo been described
and had a pistol, I would certain
lv shoot tho sufferer to put him
out misorv.'' Tho Convention de
cided with Stillman.
