Since Leaving That Territory He Has Been in Honolulu and Now Aspires to the Supreme Bench. e Spectal Dispatch to The Call. TUCSON, Ariz., April 1L.—Abraham 8. Humphries of Honolulu, Hawali, formerly a resident of Arizona, a native of Missis- sippl, is a candidate for appointment on the Supreme bench of Hawaii. Humphries left Arizona about five years ago and went direct to Honolulu. He married an hefress, and it is said he has gained dis- tinction in his profession. His candidacy for judgeship, announced here yesterday, | caused much acrimonfous comment on ac- | count of the unfortunate reputation he | gained for himself while practicing law | at Phoenix and Florence. W. F. Cooper, District Attorney of Pima | County, has sent serlous charges against Humphries to Washington, among others that he embezzied large sums of Insurance | money from two widows, paid by the | Anclent Order United Workmen on ac- | count of death of their husbands. _This | was at Florence, where, when he lef?, he | | stated he was golng to Prescott and would | | return in a few days, but went right through to Honolulu, where he has since | | been. ~ A number of creditors at Florence | mourned his loss. The charges also al- lege that Humphries has been placed un- | der arrest at Phoenix on a charge of com- | plicity in procuring a criminal operation | on a woman named White. A mob threat- | ened summary punishment, but he es- | caped. The next day he got into a street shooting scrape with P. Minor over the matter ~ and = several shots Were ex- | changed. ! At Florence, it is alleged, Humphries got | into several disgraceful fights, in one of which he attacked an old man named Gil- | bert with a knife, cutting him badly. | “'Those most intimately acquainted with | Humphries state he was betimes men- | tally unbalanced, which accounted for his peculiar and erratic conduct. His aspira- tions to the Supreme bench have cauged many to take active Interest in the mit- ter here. STANFORD HADPDENINGS Specfal Dispatch to The Call.

The game is of interest In college circles, masmuch as the teams are com- posed exclusively of young ladies who at- tend the two big colleges. They have no officlal connection with the universities, however, as the Stanford faculty has ex- cluded the game from its list of athletic contests. S CLARK WILL RESIGN DR. KILMER'S SWAMP-ROOT.

At the annual meel- | ing last evening there wes Such an oppo- ! sition to Rev. N. A. Haskell that he was [ not_re-elected pastor for the ensuing year. For the last twelve years Rev. Mr. Has- kell has been pastor of the church. Dur- |ing the past twelve mdnths the oonfi:o- | gationt has become divided, many think- ng the pastor was not sociable enough.

To-day's news from Alaska shows the Sitka and Chilkat Indians at the head of Lynn canal to be greatly wrought up over the arrest of a dozen of their fellows as a result of the Horton double murder. There are ten Indians to every white nlet, Chilkat River and Klukwan. An uprising would result disastrously to whites if it should occur quickl, To make mafters worse the C] Sitka tribes are at outs, and last week had a severe fight in which a number on both sides were injured. Both tribes have organized salvation armlies, after the one at Skaguay. run high, each side claiming that the other tribe should disband its army and join theirs. It also develops that the Indians in custody at Skaguay for the murder of the Hortons are about equally divided be- tween these two tribes. Hanson, who first confessed, is a Chilkat, and the Sitkas want to kill him for having caused the arrest of their own tribesmen. MELBOURNE M'DOWELL AND BLANCHE WALSH QUARREL Actor Takes to the Flowing Bowl and All but Falls Stupefied on the S Special Dispatch to The Call. OMAHA, April 11.—Mclbourne McDowell has been playing Marc Antony to Blanche ‘Walsh's “Cleopatra” at Boyd's Theater. Monday night after the play they are said to have had a genuine lover's quarrel, McDowell being desperately in love with Miss Walsh, who does not reciprocate. She declined to stop lonfi!r at the hotel and ordering a cab took her lliht luggage and went post haste to another hotel. Mc- Dowell became despondent and sought to drown his troubles in the flowing bowl. This conduct had a depressing effect upon his rt of the performance last night. After forgetting his lines more or less through five acts he was saved fram an embarrassing finale by Miss Walsh, who supported him when he persisted in falling to the floor, dead to_the world. Ben Stern, the manager, says Miss Walsh is in no wise to blame and has no expla- nation to offer. McDowell will not talk about it.

WASHINGTON, April 11.—Senator Clark’s seat in the Senate.will become va- | cant by resignation, and not by vote. The resent programme contemplates a delay Y‘n final action in the Clark case until the eve of adjournment, when, just before action is likely to be taken, Senator Clerk will present his resl%natlon to the Gov- ernor of Montana. Should he resign at the present time the Governor of Mon- tana would immediately appoint an anti- Clark man, and this Mr. Clafk hopes to avoid by having his friends in the Senate antagonize any effort for Immediate ac- ion. b Senator Clark has been in consultation with several of his closest friends in the Senate to-day for the purpose of deciding upon a plan of action for staving off a final vote. With appropriation bills crowding for action and other pending business it will require only a few speeches to be made at opportune times to keep the Clark case dragging along in- definitely. Of course, if a vote should be precipitated there is no doubt Mr. Clark’s seat will be declared vacant by an over- whelming majority, FINED FOR KILLING GULLS.
