A man, supposed to be a burglar, attempted to elTeet an en trance .to the apartments on the sec ond tloor occupied by Mrs. C. Fair child, of Galveston, and her niece, Miss Heesley. The ladies were awakened and screamed with terror. The prowl er leaped to the ground and disapJ peared in the shrubbery before the arrival of a score or more of gentle men guests, who had been awakened by the alarm and rushed to the rescue. HONOKAA ALL RIGHT. A block of stock amounting to 5G21. shares of the Ifonokaa plantation has recently been sold for $70,000 and a later sale yesterday was made at the rate of $105 per share. This looks as if the people who have money have a very thorough appreciation of the value of sugar securities. "EVERY LITTLE HELPS."

Reynolds, executive officer of the Hoard of Health, will leave for Hilo on the next steamer to select a site for the new go eminent hospital to be erected there, and to commence building operations. President Smith, of the Hoard, while on a vis't to Hilo a few weeks ago looked over the avail able sites, and will be able to give Mr. Reynolds some valuable advice as to the best location. As tlie appropriation for the build ing is only $2500, the Hoard will not be able to erect a very large hospital, but they hae planned to use the avail able money in such a wny that it will build a structure that may be added to from time to time as the needs of the community increase, and the Re public is better able to expend the money. All of the appropriation is available for building, as the Hilo peo ple have expressed a willingness to furnish the hospital from top to bot tom. The architects' plan show n plain frame building, one story in height, with a broad veranda on three sides, the interior cut up by broad hallways, which extend from front to rear and from side to side, giving the rooms that open form and affording them plenty of ventilation. The medical jward will be 20x12 feet, and will eon- lain seven cots. There are, besides, three private rooms, each 9x12 feet, for patients who can afford to pay. The surgery and dispensary are in front and also the nurses' living quarters. In the rear are the dining room, bath rooms, etc., and the kitchen is to be in an outhouse. The cross halls are so arranged that they can be extended into any new build ing. When additions are made to the hospital, the frontage of the old building will remain as part of the frontage of the new. Mr. Smith thinks that he will have to ship the lumber from here, but that the labor can be secured at liilo. lie wants to commence building within ten days, and will push matters so that the structure will 1h completed and ready for occupancy within thirty days from the commencement of the work.

Talk of a Scries of Games Rctweeu Local nnd Colonial Players Harry Musgrove Will Arrange for Games. The local ball players may be given nn opportunity to try conclusions with the All-Australian Club that is shortly to attempt the conquest of the United States. Harry .Musgrove, the Austra lian manager, who was a passenger on the steamer Alameda, on his wny to Chicago to arrange for the American tour, spent a few hours in the city yesterday, and went away impressed with the idea that if the local ball teams could be interested in a series of matches it would pay well for him to stop Aver a steamer on the islands. When he arrived in Honolulu Mr. Musgrove had never given the matter a thought, but a chat with some chalice acquaintances, who are base ball 'cranks, set him to thinking and to askifig question. He soon learned that Honplulu can boast of some line nmn ateur teams and that the sport is suf ilelently popular to warrant a large ;it teu(ance when good, clean cut, ama teur sport is offered. The question of "gate receipts" is of importance to Manager Musgrove, for he must make the trip pay expenses, but lie went away convinced that a week's stay in Honolulu would prove a success from a llnancial standpoint. He did not have time tq call upon various man agers of teams, but promised to open up a correspondence with them if he succeeds in arranging the American tour, and finds that he can spare a week or ten days here with his team. The base ball season will be n full blast in tlo near future, and promises to be an unusually interesting one. it the Australians decide to visit Hono lulu a special team could be picked from the leading nines, to do battle with them, in case victory perched nirtf.f the banners of the local team, and then the Australians won honors in. the States the matter would bring Honolulu ball players into intcrna t'onal prominenc". The Australian team will be made up of gcitlemcn who engage in the sport purely for the sake of the sport, whose amateur standing cannot be questioned. THE FAREWELL CONCERT.

Mr. Hoover Is Charmed With Honolulu and Says It Is an Ideal Winter Re sortThinks Annexation Will Come, President J, Hoover, of the Ex change Merchant's National bank of Spokane, Wash., is a distinguished visitor in Honolulu, having arrived by the Australia. Mr. Hoover is staying at the Hawaiian and his plans are to return to the States by the Australia next week: "1 am just on a little pleasure jaunt," said Mr. Hoover this morning. "Desiring to get away from my busi ness for a brief time I went to San Francisco and afterward concluded to take a run down to Hawaii. During the two days t hat I have been here 1 have seen much of your city and must say that the metropolis of the Ha waiian Islands far exceeded my fond est expectations. "It is my regret that I cannot re main longer. Hut 1 am coming again soon. You have undoubtedly got the ideal winter resort of the world and some judicious advertising would sure ly bring an exodus of tourists to the country. The majority of people who are able to travel do not know where to go. It was by mere chance that I came down here and I found just what I was after. There was a number of Spokane people who were anxious to take an ocean voyage and would have all been down here with me had we known anything of Honolulu. This is bound to be a garden spot for pleas ure seekers in the next year or so. "There is one little drawback which the business man takes into considera tion. Hawaii is shut off from the out ulle worm fji.m.fully. jt ls the desire of the average business man to be in close communication with his busi ness. Hut from what I can gather it would seem as though this difficulty will l obviated before the close of the century by the laying of a cable from some point on the Pacilic ocean." "What, do you think of annexing the Islands, Mr. Hoover?" "They are excellent. I have given considerable attention to the absorp tion of Hawaii by the United States and I nm an enthusiastic supporter of the movement. My idea would be to secure a solid delegation from Califor nia or the Pacific coast to present the claims of Hawaii to Congress. The country being in direct communica tion with the Coast States, both in commercial and other ways, Congress will be almost obliged to recognize the petitions of such a delegation. It was the Coast delegation that first brought the Chinese question to the attention of Congress and afterward made a suc cessful issue of it. "Senator Wilson of Washington is a particular friend of mine, and I know that he is in line for the annexation of these isles. When I left home the Washington Legislature was In ses sion and balloting for a United States senator to succeed Senator Squire. Judge Turner of Spokane was in the lead, and It is very probable that he "will be the choice. W. C. Jones and Hamilton Lewis are the Congressmen. The entire Washington delegation, I believe, will be found fighting for an nexation when the question is brought to an issue." "And you ask how I know this," continued Mr. Hoover. 'Heeausc for the simple reason that their constituency is for annexation' pure and simple. Those people who have given the matter any thought at all are decidedly for annexation. This sentiment is popular and growing and to oppose it a Senator or Congressman would be arranging for his own fun eral. It is my firm belief that annex ation is bound to come, providing it ls the wish of tills Govcri..iient to be come A part and parcel of the Great Republic." Mr. Hoover is a prominent Demo cratic politician of his State. He tendered his influence to secure the election of both the present Congress men and Is a warm supporter of Judge Turner. THE VKUISCOPK. The Veriscope will be exhibited at the theater this evening for the. first time in tills city. The curtain rises at S o'clock. One of the features to be presented, is the great New York Re publican parade. Thousands of spec tutors are seen enthusiastically cheer ing, ns the different association's march by tunny famous faces are shown, numerous brass bands are seen, nnd It will make a wry interesting sight and prove worthy of witnessing.
