The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1889-04-16

In "TFustees Of the Good Shop
herd " Us. Boston, 100 Mass. 212.
Held that in order to exempt real
estate of a body corporate for reli-
gious and charitable purposes it is
not enough that the income derived
should be applied TO the purposes
for which it was incorporated, it
must be occupied for those pur-
poses.
In Third Cong. Soc. Us. Spring.
field, cited above, held that a
parsonage built on the church
premises and let free of rent
to the pastor was not exempt as
being used for religious purposes.
That funds for the support of the
ministry, held by religious soci-
ETY., are taxable whether invested
in real or personal estate. The case
cites line of authorities besides
the Mass. in the n. J. and Mime
sofa Reports.
The statutes of Massachusetts,,
Illinois and Michigan seem to ex-
pressly limit the property of incor-
porated schools, which may be ex-
empted, to property by them in ac-
tual use or occupation, and not
leased for profit. And the cases
cited for the plaintiffs turn upon
the question of what is actual use
and occupation, e. g., whether a
farm being cultivated by the stu
dents, the products being consumed
by the school, is use and occupa-
ton which allows exemption They
are aside from the issues in this
case.

$40, the facts are, in an important
particular, not parallel to the case in
hand. Property had been devised
to the Bishop of the Roman Catho-
lie Church in trust for the use and
benefit of the Roman Catholic
Church. The Court held, against
the contention that it was benevo-
lent institution, that the Roman
Catholic Church or any other church
did not come within the terms of the
then existing statute exemptions,
viz: "religious societies for church
sites, burying grounds and houses
of education and literary and be-
nevOlent Institutions" and that the
property, while it remained in the
trust and was not appropriated to
an exempted object, would not be
exempt, concluding that "what-
ever property can be legally ex-
empted must be set aside and be-
come part and parcel of the object
itself or dedicated for its promo
tion." Private schools, however,
are in terms an exempted object |
and may derive benefit from the
Act if the view is held that what is
in their use belongs" to them.
But this question we have said is
not before US, and the case cited |
the decision of the lower
court.
The judgment for the defendant |
is affirmed.

creened Potatoes.

A potato that has been greened in the
sun is spoiled for eating, but for seed it
is all the better. Such potatoes will be
from week to ten days earlier than
others Of the same variety planted at the
same time. With late varieties they will
produce larger crop, as the growth will
be more vigorous on the same kind of
land. This secret of exposing potatoes
to the sunshine for a time before plant
ing has been worth fortunes to potato
growers who learned it. 1t may be done
with the hills selected for seed by partly
uncOyering the potatoes while still at
tached to the roots, taking care that it
be done in not very hot weather. and
that potatoes so exposed be dug before
danger from frest

The Work.

work on the Colby roller mills has been
stopped. and just when it will be resum.
ed Is not known, but the delay is NOT
caused by any fault of Messrs. shrimp and
woodruff. They have fulfilled every let.
ter OF their contract, so far. and the bull.
ding was ready for the placing of the ma
chlnery by Sept. 5. as they agreed. The
indianapolis company that was to put in
the machinery has not complied with its
part OF the contract, and the damage
done to Messrs. Shimp and Woodruff and
the farmers of Thomas county can hard
~ be estimated. 1t seems that the ma
chine company took the contract at a
small figure. and would now like to have
changes made in the contract. This will
not be permitted, as the interested par
ties propose that the contract shall be
filled. One change has elready been
made in favor of the indianapolis COM
pany, and they still want more. Had
they brought their machinery by the 9Th
inst, as agreed. the mill would be in
running order by Oct. 18th. We hope
the differences may yet be amicably set
tied. and the machine company made to
ill their part of the contract.

Tho Residence Of L. 4. Lewis A.
most Totally Destroyed.

On last Monday night the house of Mr.
L. A. Lewis, in the west part of the city
was discovered to be on fire. and in re
Spouse to cries the neighbors, Mr.. JaI
Fulkerson, Mr.. jackson, Mr.. Flood, Mr.
Copeland, r. K. Beymer and others
assisted Mr. Lewis in getting mastery OF
the fire before the large crowd gathered
This was no easy task, as water had to be
carried some $50 yards from tank in
buckets, and the whole west inside OF
the house was ablaze before drop OF
water could be got to the house. After
getting the fire out in the west side, il
was discovered that the fire had spread
or started in the second-stOry room on
the east side. and by vigorous effort on
the part of Mr.. r. K. Beymer. Albert
Csnfield. DR.. Eddy and others, this part
of the fire was also quenched. While
the boys were at work in the east room,
they came across some old blankets, stuff
fed under the floor, which had been cut
open apparently for the purpose, the
blankets being thoroughly saturated with
kerosene oil. 1t is great wonder, the
fire having obtained such a start, the
force being so few and the water Mt such
great distance, that it would have in Sc
short time be got under control. The
determined efforts of a few cOOl-headed
men shows however, good results from
work under adverse circumstances. Had
any wind prevailed the whole structure
must have been destroyed, but as it was the
damage was all inside. and to the walls,
stairs and floors, and probably will no,
exceed $500. The building is story
and half frame building costing about
1900, and was insured for $500. Mr..
Lewis says that the fire originated from
the explosion of a new lamp rs he was
carrying it upstairs. He does not know
how the kerosene saturated blankets
came to be where the boys found them.
He had just returned from trip to the
country, and on his Way home purchased
the lamp which within a few minutes af.
ter lighting began to sputter, ending in
the explosion. Certain it is that when
the neighbors arrived ON the ground,
they found him hard at work endeavOr.
ing to put out the fire.
Dick Beymer is worth his weight in
gold at a fire-brave. prompt and cool,
he puts in the work and water just where
it is needed, and Jap Fulkerson is not
far if any behind in excellent work.
Colby ought to have fire company-at
least bucket brigade, if nothing else.
