Siberia sailed at noon today for San Francisco. The ves- sel did not take a very large crowd of passengers with her, although many people had hooked to depart by her. She was able to accommo- date more than had been first ex- pected. , Among those who departed were Governor George R. Carter and family. W. H. Hoogs, another of the Republican delegates to the Chica- go convention went. The plans of the governor and Mr. Hoogs have not been definitely determined. The pair may wait in San Francisco- - for the members of the delegation or they may go independently East to Chicago. It is understood that Prince Kuhio, the delegate at large, is to arrive here week after next, and to return to the mainland immediately. F. W. Macfarlanc, the commis- sioner to the St. Louis Exposition, departed for the mainland. Captain and Mrs. Glen Collins Teturned to the mainland after a brief stay in Honolulu. Capt.

There is one startling possibility in connection with Atkinson's tak- ing the gubernatorial burden. As governor he is the superior of the other officials.. Among them is his father, A. T.

TOGO STILL AT IT. The land office shortage is esti- mated by those who have done the investigating so far at probably in the neighborhood of $10,000, but there is nothing to show that it is not a deal larger. Land Com- missioner Pratt is in possession of a list of old accounts due which show that $20,000 is overdue to the government. A part of this has really been paid and is in the shortage. Possibly all of it has been paid, and a lot more that is not ac- counted for. The public is in part responsible for giving the opportunities for em- bezzlements in the land office. As in the Hilo irregularities, there was nothing in the books to any opportunity for discoveries by ex- perts or investigators. The payments do not appear in the rec- ords of the books at all, and the reason is that instead of giving offi- cial receipts for the cash, who received it at the land took plain commercial personal receipts. "There is an official form of receipt for everything," said Com- missioner Pratt, "and there is no reason people should accept and other kind of receipt. Money for. whi&uany but an official receipt is givempay be simply pocketed by the receiver and there is absolutely no way to find it out except from the man who-pay- s it." In the present case the way to find out where the department stands will be to send to each party having an account with the depart- ment a statement of his or her ac- count, as by the books of the office. Those who have paid in more than thev are credited with will of course promptly make a kick and nroduce their receipts, and in this way the books can be corrected and the exact shortage made known. In all the departments there are official forms of receipts for money. Stocssel, the mulcting severe on 1 lie and wounded, while tha Russin 0:0 - o- - T of the Church. The four Star.

THE THE great long give other those office Land why only shown losses losses Cable ONE When such forms are used, the clerk and others cannot help turn- ing in their cash, for the forms are all in stub books and are numbered. Each stub must be accounted for and entered, hence discovery must naturally quickly follow withhold- ing cash receipts. The department heads are inclined to think that those who pay in money are partly responsible if there are embezzle- ments, when plain receipts for pay- ments are accepted. Several suc- cessive examinations of the books of the land office failed to show any shortage, simply because the money taken does not appear in the books at all, except as money due and not paid in. Commissioner Pratt dis- covered it by coming to the conclu- sion that the money had been ow- ing long enough and that it was about time he took proceedings to enforce collections. Auditor Fisher is working on a plan to have receipts for money all countersigned by the audit office. It is believed that this will be a very effective check, and a law embody- ing the plan will be submitted to the next legislature. It will pro- vide for official receipts and will make it compulsory on those who pay in money to take only such re- ceipts. "The only one way to absolutely prevent losses to the government," said the auditor, "is to have every- one who handles money under bonds. Of course many precautions may be taken, but there is no possi- ble system which a dishonest man may not get round in some way or other." Auditor Fisher is at work on the books of the department. It will not be known what the shortage is, however, until Pratt receives replies to those to whom he is sending statements, showing whether the accounts are correct. Such replies mav show a shortage far in excess of $10,000. FF TO THE jj WILLIAM H. IKKKnS, WHO SAILED TODAY BY THE. SIBERIA FOR THE CHICAGO CONVENTION.

The duty to.be collected on the cargo amounts to $62,000. The biggest part, of this duty is to be collected from the heavy im- portation of gunny sacks. The duty on gunny sacks will be $40,000.

The duty collected then amounted to $65,000. The reason for the duty being so much more on that cargo than the Sibe- ria's which is larger, was because a. heavy shipment of rice was on the Doric that trip.

Burns, Phllp.and Co's Island Meet, which 'has Justcompleted an extensive cruise amongthe Elllce and Gilbert Groups. Whenthe Titus reached the Island of Tara-wa, Captain Vov and his officers wereInformed that a murderous attack hadbeen made a few days previously on anative at the Island of Little Maklnan atol situated at the extreme north-ern end of the Gilbert Group. Onlymeagre particulars of the affray wereavailable, but It was learned that astwo natives were sitting on a reef en-
gaged In the pastime of fishing, an-other native stealthily came behindthem and attacked one of the fisher-men with an axe. The unfortunateman, who had no time to defend him-self, was struck a heavy blow on theback of the head, the sharp edge of theaxe penetrating the skull. Death wasInstantaneous. The assailant at oncemade good his escape, but Informationwas given to the authorities by thedead man's mate, and the perpetratorof the deed was soon laced under arrest. The prisoner was conveyed tothe Island of Tarawa, where the Deputy 'British Commissioner for the Gil-
bert and Elllce groups resides, and hewas awaiting his trial when the Titussailed. In all probability by this timethe prisoner has paid the penalty ofihls offence.The scene of the murder. Little Makln-
Is a very small Island formed of coral,and the Inhabitants who are few Innumbers, subsist on cocoanuts and fishThe Islanders are described as a verypeaceful people, and tribal wars areabsolutely unknown. It Is thereforesurmised that the murder was theoutcome of some quarrel between thetwo men.

SENATEALARMED
HOUSE 01- - REPRESENTATIVES TAKING A MORE INDE-PENDENT POSITION IN THE GOVERNMENT SEN-
ATE DEFIED 1JY HOUSE UNDER CANNON AND DE-
PRIVED OP ITS POSITION AS "THE WHOLE THING."
The speaker is a heavy embarrassment to the Senate. His ambitionfor the speakership was founded on his desire to rescue the House fromits subserviency to the Senate and restore it to its old place as a co-equ- al
branch of Congress. As soon as he became speaker he undertook tocarry out his plan, and, short as the session was, he met with notablesuccess. He met the Senate with a resolute front at the be'ginning ofthe session, and from that time on until the close, whenever there was aclash between the two houses it was the Senate which yielded. Themost notable occurrences of the kind were when the House forced theSenate to give up its own bill for the government of the Panama canalzone and when the House forced the Senate to accept the former's riverand harbor bill.
The Senate was particularly set upon the canal zone bill, and went sofar as to threaten to defeat the adjournment of Congress and hold thetwo houses in session indefinitely. Mr. Cannon would not yield, andthe Senate was obliged to back out for it did not care to make good itsthreat. The river and harbor bill was ever dearer to individual sena-tors, who had loaded the House's little $3,000,000 down with surveysThe House stripped these surveys off in disregard of the feelings ofsenators, who thought the "pork barrel" was to be opened again, andthe Senate, after growling a good deal, surrendered.
These were the most important achievements of the House, but allalong the way Mr. Cannon's path was studded with countless little vic-- ,lories over the Senate. The session was too short and business-lik- e andtoo little was done to give the speaker a chance at the great victory iiehopes to achieve, but he already has gone far toward the fulfilment ofhis purpose.
l lie benate is much perturbed over the outlook. It has so long beenthe American Congress, with the House an unimportant tailpiece, thatit does not relish the idea of relinquishing its assumed domination.There arc few men in the House of speakership size who could carryout Mr. Cannon's purposes as doggedly and as skilfully as he docs, evenif they desired to, and the senators think that if he were out of the waythe House would sink back into the subordinate place it occupied uncle.Speaker Henderson. Hence the Cannon boom for vice-preside- It isneedless to say that in that office he would be powerless for harm fromthe Senate viewpoint. He would preside over the Senate, but the Seiate, unlike the House, governs itself, and the presiding officer is simplya figurehead.
This is also the reason why Mr. Cannon so bitterly resents the idea!of being taken away from the House. It is commonly said that thespeakership has been the goal of his ambition, and this is true, but itwas not so much the office he longed for as the chance to carry out hispurpose of rescuing the House and making it at least equal with theSenate.

:o:THIS CURATE IS A BRICK.
Preacher in England Adopts Original Method of Getting Near thePeople of His Parish.
The Rev. P. W. Francis, M. A., curate of Christ church, NorthFinchley, England, has adopted a novel method of securing the confi-dence and friendship of the men employed in building new villas in hisparish.
He mounts the scaffold, and, seizing a trowel, works with the menwhile he talks to them.
"You can't help liking him," said one of the bricklayers, "for he'sa man as well as a parson.
"When a visitor comes on the scaffolding it's the custom to ask himto pay his 'footing.'
"We hardly knew how he would take it, but he only smiled and paidup like a man by 'standing' us tea all round. Pic doesn't believe in giv-ing us the money to buy alcohol
"Pick, shovel, and trowel all come the same to him."Mr. Francis has announced that the members of his Bible class an
going to build a drinking fountain near what used to be Finchley com-mon.
"And I am going to help them," he added. "I shall take off myblack coat, and help to dig the ground ready for the laying of the waterpipe from the main to our drinking fountain."
The action of this practical curate calls to mind the cases of theStepney priest who cleaned his own church; the Pcckham pastor who,with the help of the congregation, painted and decorated his chapel, andthe Aston vicar, who personally took part in the voluntary toil of Iug
parishoncrs to repair their church.

, ...... A.NQTHER SCANDAL.
It is to.be hoped that we have reached the last of the scandals in thegovernmental departments. The land office is the latest discovery. MereLand Commissioner Pratt discovered that there had been a system of.wholesale plunder, going on for a number of years. What the exactamount appropriated will total no one can tell till a very thorough ex-
amination has been made. It is estimated at between $ 10,000 and $20,- -'
000. 1 lie peculations were commenced when E. S. Boyd was clerk mthe office and continued, to the time when he resigned as Commissionerof Public Ltjjjds on (jovcrnlor Carter's assuming office.
But not only' is IVoyd charged with embezzlement of public funds.but the cashier, Stephen Mahaulu, is also accused. The two seem tohave played into one another's hands, though they naturally accuse oneanother now. It certainly is an unpleasant episode.
.The amount that ,hasbc(cn made away with by government employesduring' the 'ldit"fi'vb or 'six years might have saved the administrationfrom the necessity,. fi ,citfting down Some of the salaries. It must beclose on to $50,000, .if it is not more, and this sum would have been

, It must not be thought that misappropriation of public funds hasbeen confined, to he present period. It is only that with more strictmethods these matters come to the surface. Furthermore there is nobrushing up. ,If a man peculates and is found out, the fact is publishedThere 'are ,m4n!ya,lkhig round the streets of Honolulu today whose"shortage" on accounts has .been "squared" by their friends. Kameha- -meha V used to say he was, kept poor making up the deficiencies ofsome of his owii; appointees;
But the tfcdcjn'cy to hush lip and square the account is disappearingMore arid jnqrfe, iS it, brought home to people that leniency in such matters only leads to more and more commission of crime.

.. .... NO DUST.
Dustless roads! If we could have dustless roads life would be muchmore worth living. We have been makinc experiments with crude oilIn France, according to-a- official report from the Department of Roadsand linages, they have solved the problem by coating the surface withtar. '
The engineer for the Seine and Marnc Departments reports thatafter an unsuccessful trial of a mixture of oil and petroleum, a coating01 in was ; summer 01 iyoz iaiu down on seven tutterent lengths olroad. After darefully observing these during a period of twelve monthslie remarks that dust and mud had wholly disappeared and the cost omaintenance of-th- roads has been considerably reduced. Further comparing the previous outlay on the roads with that of those with tarredsurface, he says: '
"It appears thafit may be assumed that the tarring method requiresno greater outlay, and at the same time very considerably improves thecondition of thc-rdadw- In La Cher two lengths of the Chausee Na-tional were coated with tar in June and August of 1902. Both these ex-periments have been entirely successful, the road now being coveredwith an elastic skin, while the sound of tread is muffledand horses and draft oxen require only one-ha- lf the effort they put forfftbefore. The noise and vibration caused by vehicular traffic is much re-
duced and neither 'dust nor mud is formed on the tarred surface. Again,the inhabitants of St. Ainando and neighborhood, as well as the officialsof the Bridges and Roads Department, are satisfied as to the beneficialeltect of the tar coating. '

A Woman's Wealth,
Paine's CeleryCompound
GIVES VIGOE AND
STRENGTH TO DEBILITATED AND
RUN DOWN WOMEN.
It is maintained by many distinguishedwriters that the greatness of a nation dependsmuch upon the physical condition of itswomen. The general condition'! which con-tribute to health and long life, arc thue whichdo not imply a rapid and unequal exhaustionof those powers by which life is maintained.While we assert that the women of our landstand peerless for lcauty and the virtues thatmake them lovable, we cannot hide the factthat there arc thousands in our midst who,owing to overwork, worry, household cares,and an unequal exhaustion of life power, haveliecomc weak, nervous, sleepless, and debili-
tated.We bring to the attention of all weary,
despondent, hopeless, and sickly womenearth's great rescuer and health builder,Paine's Celery Compound. Thousands ofhealthy women around us owe their presentvigor, activity, and robustness to l'aine'sCelery Compound. Mrs. Stephen Smith, St.I'aul, Minn., tells how she was snatched fromthe grave; she says:
" I had a bad attack of la grippe this springand was at death's door, and no one everexpected me to recover. I was so weak thatas soon as they brought me out of one faintI was in another. I could not take anynourishment, and doctors' medicines did meno good. A friend advised my husband toget me a bottle of l'aine's Celery Compound,which he did, but had no faith in it. Thesecond day after taking the Compound, 1
began to get real hungry and took an interestin things. I had everything that money andloving care could supply, and with that andl'aine's Celery Compound, I am now doingmy own work, while three months ago I wasalmost in the grave. I know that I owe myhealth and strength to l'aine's Celery Com-pound, and shall always recommend it."

ONION STICKS IN EAR.PHILADELPHIA, Pa., May 2. Ethel
Hoot, 22 years old, of 2020 Lambertstreet, found a pungent piece of onion

he took the bandage off the onioncould not be removed and she had togo to the Samaritan hospital, whereDr. Carpenter extricated it.
