IS id A CRITICAL CONDITION At the Hospital Shot By Wm. Hamilton A Surrender to the Police A Drunken Row. No additional sentences will be re quired to include a temperance lec ture in this account of a shooting. The lesson strong as it can be given, goes with the barest report. Wm. Hamil ton, a young white man, who has been here since 1S93, is in the No. 1 cell at the Police Station. Moaning and twisting and struggling for life on a cot at the hospital lies Andrew Davis, a young half-caste. Hamilton sot Davis Saturday night. This was in Hamilton's room on Queen street, back of the Wilder & Co. establish- ment. Davis has been employee! ior a long time at Tom Hollinger s norse shoeing shop. Hamilton for a year or two has had charge of stock for Wilder & Co. The men were friends of long standing. Davis was supposed to be dying Saturday night, but was better yesterday and last night. The doctors and nurses say he has about an even chance. A pistol bullet .38 caliber in size entered Davis' body just above his heart. It passed through the lung and stopped just at the skin imme diately beneath the small of the back. Hamilton came to the Police Station at 8:30 Saturday evening and said he had just shot a man. This was told to Capt. Parker. Hamilton was very much excited, very nervous, said he wished he had killed himself and urged that a surgeon be, sent to the man wounded. Hamilton and a Pake who accompanied him went below and Capt. Parker started to look after the victim of the shooting. Davis was found lying on his back in Hamilton's room. The wounded man was taken to the hospital so soon as possible. Dr. N. B. Emerson, Mr. Eckhart of the hospital and a couple of nurses gave Davis attention. Mr. Eckhart put his hand under Davis' body while Dr. Emerson was probing and felt the bullet. As Davis was turned over the blood, gushed in a stream the size of the hole. The bullet was felt, an In cision made and the battered piece of lead removed. All night Davis was very restless. When it was thought he was dying he refused positively to make a statement and all of yesterday and last night was in the same reti- ppnt or stubborn mood. When asked who shot him he answered: "Nobody; I got hurt." Davis did a good deal of cTi-Mrinjr will e nis wouiiu as ucius rirAPd nnd all throusrh the night when awakened by the pain. An attendant stood over him constantly to prevent him rpmovins the bandages. He is a ctm fpiinw. with lots of vitality and mnir mill thrnn?h. thousrh sorely hurt, TavU i verv well known around town nr.fi hepn regarded as a trouble- eomo mnn when in liauor. kJVlllV I Tho r,niifP found in Hamilton's room u-hnt thP drinkers had left ot a gai- Ion of wine.

He j tc-f onntrifmn over PXUICSSCU ll.lt UCCJJCCl, x. uim i w - - the fact that he had hurt Davis, as he said thev had been friends for a long time. According to Hamilton the two men had been in the room drink ing and talking and smoking from very crnn aftpr 4 o'clock to a short time after S. Both were quite drunk Hamilton wanted Davis to go home Davis refused to leave the cottage and replied with oaths and threats. Once he started away after being given the bottle of wine. Then he came back Bv this time Hamilton was thoroughly frenzied and Davis was tantalizingly contrary. Davis said he would not j leave the place ana ' wanted the room lefl j warm and Davis m ever. Hamilton deck force his order at leave the place and Hamilton said he wanted the room left to possession of arrel became very more abusive than lared he would en force his order at the point of the n-cfnl nml tnnV flip wpnnnn from a trunk- Davis shouted that Hamilton u-ns nfr.mM tn np the nistol and in- vited a bullet, saying he was not afraid of guns. The men were very close to gether. Somehow the shot was fired and Davis fell and the blood came in a rush from his breast. Davis was hit with the only bullet in the pistol. There were three empty shells. Then Hamilton went up to the Police Sta tion with the Chinaman, a restaurant keeper, who had happened along. Davis had his shirt and flesh burned from the powder of the catridge. Hamilton went from the Fire de partment to the employ of Wilder & Co. Before being a fireman, Hamilton had jobs as a teamster. At one time the latter part of 1S94 and early in 1S93 he was in the Police depart ment. He was one of the men "held up" on the beach beyond Kakaako a few night before the uprising of 1S93 took place. Hamilton is a native of Vermont, but was in California for a time before coming to the Islands. Aside from his drinking he has been regarded as a worthy man. In a couple of days, when the nature of Davis case is a certainty, Hamilton will be brought before the District Magistrate. If Davis dies the charge will be man slaughter in the first degree. If Davis Survives his heavy wound the indict ment will be for assault with a deadly weapon. At 1:30 o'clock this morning Davis was quite low. His pulse was irregu lar and he was still loosing blood. BACCALAURIATE. Address o I Rev. Mr. liirnie to Oaliu Class of 1S9S. The auditorium of Central Union church was well filled with young, people last evening, eager to listen to Rev. Douglas Putnam Birnie's address to the graduating class of Oahu Col lege. The pastor referred to the occa sion as the parting of the ways. The students had ended their school days in Hawaii and would now brush up against the sterner realities of life. Mr. Birnie stated that he would not speak of the pathway of sin and vice. That way did not appeal to them. He would speak of two roads that run along closely to each other. One was good but the other was better. He was confident that the student who follow ed the road of selfishness would bring on bitterness in the years that are to come. He urged that every member of the graduating class of '9S would seek to spread their knowledge. He con sidered it every man's duty to do this. The pastor referred to the success at tained by Hawaii's illustrious son, General Armstrong, during his life time. One of the grandest monuments in all the United States today stood to his memory in the Hampton school which was founded by him. Mr. Birnie sincerely hoped that there were Arm strongs in the class of '98. ca "GENERAL QUARTERS." Alarm on 3Iohican Caused by W. G. Hall Lights At about 2:30 o'clock Sunday morn- in o- tho i lisinms omceis aim uuicis , i fT ,J li'M . along the the water front were startled by the sharp notes of a bugle aboard the U. S. S. Mohican, calling the wnoie ship's officers and men to "General Quarters." There were he rattle o chains, the sounds of orders given by I it officers and the general ousue oi ac tivity to be heard, l-ar out in me ai- rection of Barber's Point could be uiainly discerned a searcfiJignt maK- mg what seemeu to De. a bt;ii signals, -central omce nau wcu in- formed by someone that a bpanisn 1 . , . .1. man of war was oil port, ine watcn- 1 - ers on the Mohican had seen the ngnt I n n ,1 n-oro nrpnnrpil for the worst. The uiiu '"-'v- i i m(?n who had given up nope, oi a ugni felt that a special act of Providence had thrown a little something their way. At about 4 o'clock the W. G. Hall came ud the cnannei ana men n was learned that the light that had ere ated such a commotion was none other than the searchlight on the deck of that steamer. The captain had de cided to try it for the purpose of ascer taining what powers it had. The Mohican people were unaware of the fact that some of tha Inter- Island steamers are provided with Bpnrrhlifrhts. The men stood at "Gen eral Quarters" from 2:30 to 4 a. m.

Parker's Company. A quorum of the House, a number of Government officials, the members of a golf club, representatives of the press, a hundred tourists and visitors from the other Islands, a dozen mili tary men and a strong delegation of citizens, including many ladies and gentlemen awheel, witnessed the police parade and drill in Punahou pasture, Manoa valley, on Saturday afternoon last. Marshal A. M. Brown directed the display. The elements of his hand some and smart command were forty eight foot police under Capt. Robt. Waipa Parker and the company of mounted officers under Capt. Spillner. The sun was shining brightly and there was a fresh breeze from the head of Manoa. A tent with refreshments for distinguished guests had been pro vided by the commander-in-chief. At the head of the House party was Rep resentative Isenberg, who held the reins over a spanking team. Repre sentative Pogue was the principal critic on horsemanship. At home this gentleman is one of the rough riders of Maui. The field for drilling is a level sweep between two knolls, and if the stones were cleared away would be an absolutely perfect place for maneu vering a much larger force than the police can muster. It was a happy thought to carry the foot officers from town in 'busses. The .way is long and part of it dusty and sharply "P grade. The drill began about 3 o'clock and continued in a spirited manner for nearly two hours.i First the cavalry was put through company movements ami executed every command with the prettiest pre cision. Then came a skirmish line showing and next, in the company formation, a battle formation. The firing line was sent out on foot. A good many blank cartridges were used. The cavalry company does ex ceedingly well at fancy drilling. One formation is a circle with the horses all lying down and the officers firing over their prostrate mounts. There was the flavor of the theatrical in the rescue at one time from the firing line of a wounded man by two messengers from the reserve. The man was raised un behind one .of the riders without any dismounting and carried to the rear with the horse 'bucking. It was in such work as Capt. Spill ner s men are called upon to ao in the course of patrol duty that they ex celled at drill. A native pony pulling a light break was sent across the field at a top gallop. Two of the officers were started in pursuit and on each trill succeeded in overhauling the out fit in-short order. Geo. Moau, one ot Capt. Parker's men, sat in the brake and plied the whip vigorously. This was a very exciting act. A bov was mounted on a horse and rode for the hills at break neck speed. Two of the cavalrymen went fter the runaway. One officer lifted the hoy from the saddle while the other took charge of the frightened Tho mmintpfi torce is in a. hi'rh -state of -nroficiency. IIUIC-.

The triumph of Parker ana m men came at tne ten-mmum fAnu of manual of arms and bayonet with out command. In this climax the fortv-ei-ht men did something tnai appealed to all the spectators a, mm. less than marvelous. The manual of arms was old style, but neat and like everything else, in absolute unison. The bayonet exercise was from the British. German and American roxu lations anil it would require extensive traveling to see anything quite bo good. Marshal Brown, Spillner, Parker and the men themselves were most heartily congratulated on the splendid showing made and during the drilling the applause was frequent. The only drawback to the field work was the necessity of operating in single rank and the errors of the afternoon, such as would be checked by military judges, were very few indeed. The accouterments of the men are in first class condition and quite com plete. The mounts of the cavalry company are handsome Island horses well trained. Heavy Realty Deals. Paul It. Isenberg has sold to A. V. Gear a large tract of land on the town side of Telegraph hill for $20,000. Mr. Isenberg bought the property a num ber of years ago from the late Dr. Geo. Trousseau. It is supposed that the firm of Gear & L-ansing will plot the tract at an early date and put the lots on the market. W. C. Achi has secured by purchase the old Government Agricultural gar den in Nuuanu valley and will sub divide the property. TENNIS TOURNEY. Championship in Singles Will Re Settled Today. The championship in tennis singles now rests between C. H. Cooke of the Senior branch of the P.T.C. and Willie Roth of the Junior branch. Thesis two players will cross rackets on their courts, Palace Square, at 4 p. m. today and a very exciting contest is expect-" ed. Cooke is an old player with a lot of sand. On an uphill game he is steady and will pull a game out of a hole where it would look almost im possible for such a thing to be done. Then he has a "chop" stroke, a short deceptive ball that bounces but a few nches from the ground and tics the player into all sorts of knots in at tempting to make returns. In the con- est with E. It. Adams, another very strong player, Saturday afternoon, he won with the score of 5-7, 0-4, C-3. The match was stubbornly contested by Adams and the play was careful and deliberate. Cooke lost the first set, but hi3 climbiing abilities, already re ferred to, were too much for the ene my and he pulled out winner. Willie Roth is a junior player of whom tle P. T. C. boys are very proud. When he went into the Club he hardly knew hew to hold a racket but now, he not only knows how to do ths, but p.'ays with his left hand. In his drives he is a wonder and many balls go down the side lines of .the enemy before there is time to make a step in their direction. He plays with excellent judgement and is fond of fighting at half courts, where he is able to get everything.. In his contest with S. G. Wilder on Saturday, ho came out an easy victor with a score of 6-1, 6-3. Some of the preliminary sets in doubles will be played on the Bere tania and Pacific courts this after noon. Suicide on Kauai. The James Makee brought news from Kapaa Sunday morning that a Chinese contract laborer, aged 18 years, had committed suicide by jumping into the Kealia river. This happened on Tues day last and the body was not found until Thursday. He was a new laborer at Kealia and it i3 supposed that he became despondent over certain re verses.
