HAWAIIAN DECISIONS.

Col. M. Thompson, of the Homo
lulu bar, is preparing an Index
digest of the points of law decided
by the Supreme Court of the Hawai-
ian Islands.
The work will be in the alphabet
ical order of the points decided,
with cross references, to the name
of the case, book, and page, where
the case is reported in ectenSo, and
in this way, it will be time-saving
and valuable to judges, lawyers and
laymen.
Col. Thompson's Digest of the
laws Of the District of Columbia Ga
copy of which we have seem, was a
complete success, and is an acknow-
lodged authority in the Supreme
Court of the United States and Dis
trict of Columbia and the States.
We understand that many points
of law have been decided that are
not alluded to in any of the syllabi
of the reports, and that much of
the syllabi simply shows that some
thing was decided, without showing
what was decided, and that Col. L.
will examine every case and include
in his digest every important and
interesting point of law and equity
that has been decided by the court.

GERMAN ENTERPRISE.

Germany has recently made such
rapid strides for supremacy in the
markets of the world, that her latest
move in this direction will not excite
surprise. A direct line of steamers
is to be established between Ham,
burg and Calcutta. The project is
all the more significant, as at pre-
sent there is no distinctly German
line trading with India. The North
German Lloyd's, running to Austria
liza, only touch at Colombo, and are.
therefore, for all practical purposes,
useless as regards the Indian trade.
Should however, the new line be estab-
lished to Calcutta, some British steam
ship companies, and more especially
the Peninsular and Oriental, will
sustain loss of valuable freight.
The latter corporation, which not so
long ago had the monopoly of the
Eastern carrying trade, is thus
threatened with further competition.
1t has in many instances carried all
before it on previous occasions
when rival companies have encroach-
ed on its preserves, and it may be
still depended on to hold its own
against the new German enterprise.
The p. and o. Company are on the
spot, they have steamers without
number, and an old established re-
putation, and even if other means
fail they can carry the war into the
enemy's country by instituting a
service of their own between Ham
burg and Calcutta. English ship
owners will only be quickencd into
action by the latest move in the di-
rection of German commercial de-
velopment.- Home News.

EXCURSION TO PEARL RIVER.

Tuesday, January 1st, was the
9TH anniversary of the foundation of
the "Sociedade Luzitana Benef-
cente de Hawaii" and through the
efforts of the President, seconded
by Mr.. Dillingham;, who kindly
placed the steamer Eva at his dis
posal for the day, an excursion was
agreed upon to Pearl river harbor,
and q start made at 0 a. m. About
$50 members were expected, but
not over GO showed up, owing to
foolish reports being circulated
about poor accommodated and the
sailing qualities of the steamer. AS
matter of fact she is most COM
Portable little vessel and could easily
have accommodated one hundred
passengers.
After hosting the Portuguese
flag at the Association Hall on
Punchbowl and saluting it with p
guns, and the playing of the ma
tional anthem by the band, march
was made for the wharf A detach-
ment of Coo. of the Honolulu Rifles,
as well as the band, accompanied
the party.
MIR. Dillingham; drove out to Eva
and met the party shortly after
landing, and complying with a re-
quest, showed them around q little,
and gave them some notion of the
site of the coming city. To many
who had never visited the place be-
fore, Mr.. Dllingham's remarks
were extremely interesting, and the
party carried with them q very
favorable impression of the spot.
1t is much to be regretted that
the President. p. A. Dias, should
have been taken quite ill on the trip
down, so much so as to be unable
to land. This is all the more to be
regretted as he was anxious to visit
the place, TO enable him to write up
the railroad and land scheme in his
paper, the Luso. He proposes,
however, to visit the locality again
with another excursion at an early
date, being DESTROYS of bringing so
important matter clearly and for
chilly before his countrymen. The
party enjoyed themselves very
much indeed and returned to the
city shortly after four o'clock in the
afternoon.

LEAP YEARS.

The following explanation is given
why the year 1900 will not be count
ed among leap years. The year is
800 days, five hours and forty-nine
minutes long; eleven minutes are
taken every year to make the year
3G54 days long, and every fourth
year we have an extra day. This
was Julius Caesars arrangement.
Where do these eleven minutes
come 1rom? They come from the
future, and are paid by emitting
leap year every hundred years.
But if leap year is omitted regu-
larly every hundredth year, in the
course of four hundred years it is
found that the eleven minutes taken
each year will not only have been
paid back, but that whole day
would have been given up. So
Pope Gregory MIL, who improved
on Caesars calendar in 1882, de-
creed that every centurial year
Invisible by four should be leap
year after all. We therefore bor-
row eleven minutes each year, more
than paying our borrowings back by
emitting three leap years in three
centurial years, and square matters
by having leap year IN the fourth
centurial year. Pope Gregory
arrangement is so exact, and the
borrowing and paying back balance
so closely, that we borrow more
than we pay back to the extent OF
only one day in $500 years.

U. S. S. ADAMS.
ARRIVES FROM SAMOA WITH no LATER
NEWS.

The U. S. S. Adams, Capt. r. p.
Leary, arrived in port at O'Clock
last evening, twcrty-siX days from
the Samoan group, and anchored in
the stream between the u. S. S.
Alert and the British yacht Nyanza.
She left Apia on the 9th of Decem-
Der, the same day as the Royal Mail
steamer Zealandia, consequently
does not bring any later news con-
corning the state of affairs at Apia.
The Adams experienced fine weather
nearly all the passage. Crossed the
equator on Dec. 27th in long. l45
deg. w. Steam was used till the
line was reached, after which only
the sails were used. Took the n.
+. trades in lat. deg. N, thence
had very light winds till off Hawaii,
when q very severe gale was en-
countered which prevented her pass
ing on the windward side of the island
and obliged her to change the course
and come TO Honolulu on the lee
ward side of Hawaii. When the
Adams left Apia there was a cessa-
ton Of hostilities between the
Tamasese and Malietoa men, but
there was every appearance of q
battle being fought before many
hours. The L. S. S. Nipsic relieved
the Adams at Apia. She calls here
for coal and will probably leave for
San Francisco the day after the ar
rival of the Australia with the for
eign mail. A number of her officers
were ashore during the evening.

THE EDITORS CHAIR.
uDW THINGS LOOK FROM
OUR STAND POINT.
The Opinion Of The Caucasian and
the Opinion of others which we
Can Endorse on the Various
Topics of the Day.

Does liberal and judiciOus
advertising pay? No one doubts
that it does. What kind
Of men advertise q? Public spir =
tied and pro sressive business
men, men who appreciate the
value Of good newspaper and
who know what is necessary to
Keep it to 5nch a standard also
elrnwd, wise business men who
know tD p. Ospe", who know
that the surest and speediest
road to SUCCESS is through the
means Of printers ink.
In the light Of these two facts
the ADVERTISING columns Of TIE
CArcAsIAN this week tell O.
story that is full of meaning
story that Speaks volumes for
the character, thrift and wis
dom Of the citizens of our pret-
ty and prOgra. sive town. Yes,
Clinton has just cause to be
proud of the showing which she
makes 10 the world through
these columns, for there is not
another town, of equal size, in
the State that does an equal
volume Of business.
If there are any who doubt
this let them read the sketch Of
the business each one Of our
home advertisers in the other
columns Of this page and then
challenge our statement If they
can The volume of business
done by our town advertisers
shows not only that the mer-
chants are thriving and prosper
Ous, but also that the town has
u fine back country and is peo.
pied by prosperous farmers,
mechanics and laborers, for 9th
erwise the goods could not find
purchasers.
We cannot close this article
without referring to the class of
goods kept at this place as well
As to the business done. A lire
OF dress goods and millinery
are kept in this place, than
which it would be difficult to
find anything more elegant and
tasty in any of the larger towns
Of the State. There are, in fact,
ve,y few cheap and shOddy
goods of any kind kept in this
place. Nearly everything is
either first-class or at least OF
good substantial quality, and
sold at prices that will sample
favorably with any market OF
or acquaintance.
