A MISUNDERSTANDING 1C0HtRe by
the name of Maria was brought up
this morning charged with drunken
ness. When she stood before His
Honor, she hid her face behind q
piece of red rag, and, after the charge
was delivered to her, peeped over it
and pleaded guilty. Maria had to
hand out sc worth of Kalakaua
silver. Keoni was charged with
battering his wife. He keeps all his
wife's aunts, cousins, grandmothers
and other relations, and they wanted
him to further keep an old hen and
chicks, to which he would not con-
sent. So they got to high words
and keoni let drive at her and dam
aged her wrist. The Court fined
him 50 and costs for his pugilistic
efforts at family government.

knowledge of itself is not sulil-
cient to develop good character or to
ensure good conduct. 1t must be
supplemented by other and subtler
influences that act, not upon the in
tellect, but upon the heart. If we
would truly help men and women to
better life in any respect, we must
not only explain to them the nature
of right and wrong, not only show
them the consequences Of each, not
only enligten them as to the methods
Of cultivating one and discounten-
ancing the other; we must also in
some way so act upon the feelings as
to put them into sympathy with the
right, and bring the desires into con-
sonance with duty.

pied with the case of Pedro Nuneo,

wards Antonio Oliviera. The de-

Supreme Court. Bail was fixed at
$1,000. A nolle prosequi was en-
tered against the boy Jno. Quincy,

LAST evening about 8 O'Clock,
Mr.. w. G. Wood, of Lycan & Co.,
who resides on BeretOnia street,
locked up his room door and went
out to make call. Returning about
half-past nine O'Clock, he found a
sneak thief had entered the room by
a window left partially open, and
carried off very costly guitar. He
has not the slightest clue as to the
perpetrator.

Ii there are any lamp posts to
spare, we would suggest that one
be placed half way up the lane in
Nuuanu Valley leading to Iolani
College. There is a good deal of
traffic up that road, and large num-
Der of natives live back of the
school, who, not being of q very quiet
disposition, frequently cause con-
siderable disturbance in that dark
lane, which is very annoying to
the neighbors. a lamp with bright
light might have a good effect.

LIquoriee Culture.

Among the many industries recently
introduced into California the eultiva-
tion of liquorice promises to be one of
considerable Importance. Some
thirty years ago the cultivation of
liquoriee was attempted on Long
Island. but the climate was too cold
and the roots were soon destroyed by
freezing The plant might be raised
in any of our Southern. States, as well
as in California but for some reason it
has been neglected, and. in consequence,
we import vast gu lntities Of the roots.
Liquorice requires a very deep and
rather moist soil, because the roots
penetrate to a considerable depth and
in all directions, and the crop is not
gathered until the ground is pretty
well filed with the long rope-like
roots, which usually take from three
to four years from the time OF planting
to mature In gathering the crop, the
entire soil to the depth to which the
roots penetrate has to be worked over
with forks and spades, or many pieces
will be left to grow again. Mao York

getting ahead 50 fast that it must
