Body of LaU?CtpUtn King to Lie In
State Thirstily.
Bather .act exciting scene was
enacted oft the Oceanic whatf
early yesterday afternoon,
There were crowds of soldiers
on ths dook at the time, men of
the regiment on board too City of
Para that was shortly to sail for
Manila.
Presently a hack containing
several yonng officers nnd driven
by haokman Charles . Dunwell
drove through tho gateway on to
the middle of the wharf and its
occupants alighted.
A Second Lieutenant, who was
apparently conducting the party,
handed tho haokman a dollar after
making somo inquiries of him in
regbrd to the expense of a propos
ed drive to Waikiki. The offioers
were not satisfied with the terms,
and, dropping the subject, turned
to go aboard tho trannport. The
hackman, however, addressing tho
officer who had paid him, com
plained that a dollar was not the
required fare. "way yon toiu
us yourself that it would only bo
a dollar" said tho officer, "I know
that" replied Dunwell, "but I
thought there were only four of
you, now I Bee there are rive."
The officer insisted that whore-
as tne price naa c-oen previously
Arrlred From Kueefae Lite XNteffcj After
noon Wu At Osoe Tikes to Iftdor-
taking; Parlor A SUU Fnml.
The body of the latevOaptain
agreed upon nothing more was to
bo said. It was then that Don
woll mado a remark to tho effect
that American' soldiers were ap
parently dishonorable, suppli
menting his speech with the as
sertion that tbo officer was no
gentleman.
Bv this time numbers of soldiors
were Bothered around, some of
whom were holding tue horse's
head as ho showed signs of
restlessnoas. " What's that you
said ?" inquirod tho officer; the
haokman repeated what ho had
said, when tno officer reached for
him and catching him by the coat
pulled him down on tho seat and
administered sovoral blows on his
head with hiB band, after whioh
ho released the haokman.
Dunwell continued to talk in no
complimentary manner and the
officer jumping into the haok went
for his man again; Dunwell fought
desperately but was overoome and
severely punished bv the officer.
The otber officers now grabbed
their brother officer to pull him
out of the fight, thinking the haok
man had received punishment
enough. Observing this, several
soldiers pot bold of Duuwell and
pulled him away also Dunwell
shouted oomethiog at the Boldiors
and ono et them slapped his faoe.
At no time did any but the young
Second Lieutenant handle the
haokman roughly.
Tho noise of the affair attraoted
tho attontion ' 6f a mnpr on the
transport and ho came luhore, ad
moniehed the young oilicor and
ordered the haokraau uwiiy.
During the excitement several
officers offered the haokman his
desired money difforoucu.
Dunwell complained at the Po
lice Station and several attempts
were made to servo warrants
aboard the Oity of Pra, but the
sentries bad been ordered to let
no man pass under any pretence.
Deputy Marshall Chillingworth
made the attempt himself but met
with no bettor success.
Dr. Hjrtli'a Oiru.
The lato Dr. Hyde some time
ago presented the Seaman's Club
with a picture (a boy saying fare
woll to his mother) whioh the
manager is confident has been the
means of causing hundreds of
seamen and soldiers to write
letters to absent friends and re
lations who had previously om
milled to do so.

Bertio Bean, better known as
"Babe Bean" is a journalist and
believes in getting tbe news at
any pr:ce; sbe wanted to go to
Manila ai correspondent for cer
tain New Yoik and San Francisoo
papers, so donned man's apparel
and went aboard tbe Oity of Para
in San Franoisco just before tbe
transport sailed for Honolulu.
Thoro were several civiliani
aboard and Babe Bean's presence
was not remarked. Sbo took her
mesB with tbo soldiers and slept
on deck ana spent nor time writ
ing.
It was not until a day or two
before the Para got into this port
that Babo waa discovered aboard;
then it was her turn to be vaoin
ated. She had to undergo that
formality with tbo rrst and was
consequently exposed much 'to
her confusion.
If it had not hroo for tho vaoin
ation, Babe would h ivd had her
passage to Manila ensured; na it
in, howevor, tho lady was pu
ashorohore, where she immediate
ly set about socuring a passage to
the Philippines.
San Francisco papers havo re
corded somo of Miss Bean's form
er exploits in tha newspaper line,
she will get to Manila if previous
adventures are any indication.
Miss Beau was at ono timo a
famous girl duteotivo and has also
been conneoted with tho Stockton
Mail.
Babe has friends in Honolulu
who speak woll of her merits as a
journalist.

dially invited to attend.
An important meeting of. tbe
stockholders of tbe Ewa Sugar
Go. was held during the latter
part of last week.
On statements mado the stock
holders were givon to understand
that the present mill at Ewa will
bo too small to handle the increas
ed crops of 1900 and 1901.
It was at onoe decided to in
crease tha capacity of the mill by
putting over it a now mill frame,
making a fireproof building. It
was also decided to purchase now
machinery, put in nw pumps,
build new laborers' quarters and
raise tho present floor so that tbe
sugar may be emptied into tbe
bags from tho osntrifagala direot
instead of by means of tho shovel
ing procoss, now employed.
To bandlo thti criu ot tue next
two years it wonld take the present
mill tbat length of time, working
everyday. Iho manager basal
ready been allowed $160,030 to in
crease tho capacity of tbe mill so
that tho o.opj may be haudlod.
Ot this, $GO,000 has already beon
spent.
The company voted at the moot
ing to barrow o)U,UOO, tnis
amount to be raised by ton year
bonds on tbe whole plantation as
security, tho plantation reserving,
tbo right 'to pay book the monny
in tbreo years time, should this
be found possible. The Hawaiian
Trust & Investment Co. was
named but it was thought best to
spocify no company or individual
aa thero might be a change io
plans.
ft was also voted to rescind tbo
motioa passed at the last mooting,
making a reserve fund of $30,000.
Tho shareholder wore given an
insight into the financial condi
tion of tho plantation Tbo ex
penses per month, not including
dividends had amouuted to $71,
000, approximately. Thero was
$80,000 of tbe plantation's money
on band at tho office of tho agents.
Tho sugar sent by the George
Curtis brought in $120,000 and
reoeipta from more sugar waa yet
to be reported. According to eal
oulations there will probably be a
ahoitage of $12000 during the
next five months, the period when
the plantation is not working.
