COMMISSIONER BOYD
GOES ON LAND MATTERS
To Give Information While Hawaiian
Land Legislation is Pending
Difference Between Kohala
and Nahiku.
Hy the Alameda today U. S Iloyd,
Commissioner ot Public Lauds, leaves
foi Washington. Ho goes loaded with
maps nnd other exhibits of the status
of the Territorial public lands, which
ore now subject to tho control of Con
gress. Delegate Wilcox has lntroduc-'
cd a bill to supersede tho Hawaiian
land law now In force hy sufferance of
Congress. Some of Its provisions aro
deemed by the 'territorial Government
to be Inconsistent with local condl
tious.
Commissioner Hovel has desired,
ever since taking promotion to the
head of the local land office, to visit
Washington while Congress was In
session nnd explain to the leaders of
national nffalrs tho clrcunistnuccs ot
Hnwallau land administration. Ills
trip has been discussed In the Hxcru
tlvo Council for three weeks past, but
without nny dlvulgcnce of thu matter
to the public.
Governor Dole said this morning that
the object of Commissioner lo)d's
visit to Washington was for the pur
pose of giving Information while 11a
wallan land matteis weio pending be
fore Congicss.
Tho Governor was risked where tho
dlffereuco lay between the Kohala wn
ter privileges and thoso of Nanlku, tho
latter having been voted for disposal
lifter tho disposing of tho former had
been rorbldden from Washington.
"Tho Kohnln privileges wero sought
to ho conveyed by n license," was tho
unsvver, "while thoso of Nahiku aro
put In tho form of a leaso. While tho
law allows tho giantlng of earth, rock,
timber, etc., on public land. It docs
not mention water. It was ou this
ground that tho Kohala water license
was dlsnppiovcd In Washington. On
tho other hand, tho Government Is on
thorlzcd to lease public lands, ns It Is
piup3cd to do In tho matter of tho
Nnblkit water pilvllegcs."

MASKED GROTESQUELY
UPON HEAD AND BODY
The Intruder Makes Several Attempts
to Assault Mr. Cheek and
When Pursued Shows "
Fight.
Most desperate characters arc abroad
In the most peaceful residence sections
of Honolulu, no doubt. Arthur Wil
der knows it from tho cut across his
cjo and a worse gush upon his buck,
results of an encounter he hud with a
prowler In his houso the other night.
M. A. Check, clerk In the Hank of
Hawaii, had a skirmish with tho bold
est sort of an Intruder in and about
his dwelling at 'the darkest hour before
dawn this morning. He lives at tho
corner of Spencer and Magazine streets
where a steep elope of Punchbowl be
gins. It was probabl) after 3 o'clock when
Mr. Cheek was aroused from sound
slumber by the barking ot James Lyle's
dog on the adjoining premises In Spen
cer stiect. This paitlcular dog not
being given to disturbing the quiet of
night. Its barking so lustily now gavo
cause for thinking that something un
usual had disquieted the animal.
Just as Mr. Check had become fully
nvvake ho heard n ciunchlng of feet
unnil finnil thnt tin. tntn fiiwliot tin,.
washed from Arthur Coyne's lot above.
This was on Mr. Check's lanu ou thai
Magnzlne street side. All of his house
doors and windows were open as usual.
The next moment Mr. Check heard
footsteps entering hla parlor from tho
lanal.
Springing out of bed the goodmun of
tho house, without a weapon in his
bund, darted tluough the portieres to
confront the Intruder. In the darkness!
ho descried a figure, most strange-look-,
Ing in more wajs than one. The riif-l
flan made u lunge at Mr. Cheek ns if
with a weapon, causing him to sldestop !
anil cast about for a defensive weapon.
Having mado this attempt nt assault,
the villain rotrpnteil 11m unv tio ,nn,M
f v VH...W ,
and out through the gate on Magazine I
street .Mr Cheek had no gun and tna
handiest thing lie got hold of wus a
shoe.
Mr and .Mrs. Cheek raised a huo and
cry. while Mr. Cheek followed tho
prowler out to the street He was In
hopes that the uelglilims hearing tho
alarm might turn out and Intercept thi
supposedly lleelng rnscnl. It was liU
uellcr that the fellow had taken llight
toward town, hut on reaching the guts
he discovered him in ambush behind
tho hedgo on tho outside. As Mr.
Cheek appioached film, tho desperado
made nnother rush at him. At thl i
Mr. Cheek let fly tho shoe and think
ho hit him, then slammed the gato in
hit, face and bolted for the houso to
look for a more formidable weapon.
There was nothing he could grasp
which ho could find In the darkness hut
n heuvy lannl rocking chair, llesldes,
ho stumbled unit fell on entering the
hoiifcc.
Then, turning, Mr. Cheek saw and
heard tho malign Ultor ntreatlng up
Magazine street toward the mountain.
With still nothing In his hands ho
started In pursuit. On the street ho
found. Ilko David of old, pebbles of
goodl) caliber With theso he opened
up n lively fusllndo at the retreating
figure The audacious scamp turned
nt D Logan's gate 100 feet nvvny nnd
letiuncd tho compliment. Stones Hew
between tho combatants for seveial
minutes before tho prowler again took
to his heels and disappeared Into Pros
pec t street, at the baso of the moun
tain summit rise.
Hy this tlmo Sam. t.vle, hearing tha
row, Joined Mr. Chcok Ho had snatch
ed a tovolver out of a dinner in his
father's room. Together tho two men
gave chase up the hill, but saw v morn
of the fugitive.
Mr Cheek dcscilbcs the Intrudea

and body, In most giotesquc disguise

Instead of the regulation face mask ot
n burglar or hlshvvujmnn. there was a
hand upon the forehead with strip of
rng depending fiom It About tho
shoulders was a rude tippet fiom which
nlso streamed rngH In profusion. Again,
there was n girdle around the man
waist, with similar fringe to tin- oth
ers, giving the figure a rough resem
blance to that of n hula dancer. When
the fe'ovv lunged nt Mr. Cheek th
latter saw the sheen of a weapon In
Ids hand. Mr. Cheek thinks it must
have been ii knife, as had It been a
plKtol he Is runlldent the rascul would
have taken a shot nt him.
The matter has been reported to the
police bj Mr. Cheek, who ha alio
bought it lev oh it. "
Late Monday night, a native boy
called nt the police station nnd said
that he had been held up. As evidi nee,
