Although 115 names were drawn to
make up the May Jury ift the Circuit
Court, only 37 were left to do duty
yesterday after Presiding Judge Mor
row had heard the excuses. Some of
these had asked to be excused, but had
been refused by the judge because
their reasons were considered insuffi
cient. ...
One of them wished to be relieved
of jury duty because he could neither
read nor write. The judge told him he
probably would not be called upon to
do either, and that if he did others
could do It for him.
The Judge was somewhat amused
when, in the midst of excuses on ac
count of sickness and other serious
matters, H. C. Wall, a hotel keeper,
said he hadn't time to serve on the
jury.
"We haven't time to let you go. Mr.
Wall." was Judge Morrow's response.
"Well, I am getting too old, anyway;
I'm 51." he replied.
"I -am older than that," was the
judge's rejoinder.
"But r am losing money by it," per
sisted Wall. "I have some real estate
to selL"
"It's a mistake to sell it now," said
the judge. "The price is going up."
"But I am acquainted too much
here."
"That's just the kind of men we
need, business men. not floaters." And
with that Wall gave It up, remarking
that the judge could talk better than
he could.
Phil Harris did not wish to serve
because he is a census inspector, and
thought Supervisor Beach might need
him. He was not excused, however.
A large number were too busy to
serve on the jury. Many of them were
excused for a part of the term only,
time being given them to arrange
their business affairs for jury duty.
In drawing the grand jury J. Wahl's
name was called. Judge Morrow said
this was a mistake, that he had ex
cused Wahl, so J. W. Hickman was
drawn to take his place, and was later
appointed foreman of the grand Jury.
Judge Morrow charged the seven
talesmen Just after noon, reminding
them of the law against prizefights,
the selling of liquor without a license,
and criminal libel.
He called their attention also to the
local option law. They were also
pledged to absolute secrecy regarding
their Investigations. The first session
was held In the afternoon. ....

Ex-Hawaiian Army General
Hears of Oregon.
UNIQUE FIGURE IN ISLES
Honolulu Is Strategic Key for Con

cific, Says VisltorDrjdock
Is Largest in , World.
Commander-in-chief of the revolu
tionary forces of Hawaii at the time
when Queen Lllluokalanl was deposed
from the throne. General John H.
Soper, a well-known capitalist of the
Island possessions at the present time,
is in Portland with a view of invest
ing in Oregon lands.
Passing through numerous revolu
tions unscathed. General Soper is a
unique figure In the history of the lit
tle group of islands known as the
"Paradise of the Pacific." He was
marshal of the monarchy under King
David Kalakaua. the last reigning
potentate, later becoming chief-of-staff
under President Dole, of the Pro
visional Government.
General Hale and Hearty.
Born in 1846, General Soper is today
as hale and hearty as -he was 20 years
ago. He went to the Hawaiian Islands
in 1S77, and has since occupied high
official positions under three distinct
forms of government. He was com
mander of the revolutionary forces,
fighting against Queen , "Lll" in 1893,
resigning this post to become Presi
dent Dole's chief-of-stanT. He issued
the famous order through which Queen
Lllluokalanl was placed under arrest

during the troublesome times of 1895,
Just previous to the annexation of the
islands by the United States.
"Conditions have greatly changed
since those days," said General Soper
at the Oregon Hotel yesterday. "Now
Honolulu is being made into one of the
best fortified places on the Pacific,
and I do not believe it will be long
before there are between 10,000 and
15,000 United States soldiers there.
Honolulu is the strategic key for the
control of military activities on the
Pacific, and Uncle Sam, is awakening
to this fact.
"At the present time there are be
tween 1500 and 2000 soldiers on Oahu,
the island on which Honolulu is sit
uated. Battery Harlow, at the base
ef the famous extinct volcano known
as Diamond Head, may well be called
the "Gigraltar of the Pacific," for it
virtually commands the entrance to
Honolulu harbor and overlooks the
city Itself. There are eight 12-inch
mortars at the base of ' the volcano,
with tunnels Tunning to the ocean side,
750 feet above the water.
Drydock, Largest in World.
-Then there is the Waiklkl Battery,
where guns of the coast artillery will
be placed; Fort Shatter; the Marine
camp; Schofield Barracks, where the
Fifth Cavalry Is stationed, and the for
tifications at Pearl Harbor. Dredging
the channel to the latter has been
contemplated, giving a passageway 400
feet wide and 36 feet deep. The dry
dock, which is being constructed, will
be the largest in the world. Notwith
standing the military activities in the
islands at the present time. I think
between 10,000 and 15,000 men are
needed to properly protect Hawaii in
case of war."
General Soper came to Portland after
hearing of the wonderful opportunities
to be found in the Oregon country,
and he probably will make a number
of investments here before leaving. He
expects to return to Honolulu, where
he resides, the latter part of this
month.
