HENRY A. P. CARTER, the Hawaiian

The Gallant in the Edmunds A ct Gas,
as Peace Maker-A Breezy Affair.

The case of United States against a
lady charged with violation of what is
VI popularity known as the Edmund act
for the suppression of gallantry, came
up before Commissioner Ainsa this
morning at the district court room, and
was heard with closed doors. Fearing
breaches of the peace, an unusually
large number of officers, fede. al and

decorum and maintain the dignity OF
the court.
The charming defendant, in tasty
black dress, gloves ana straw hat, was
the only person present who ap; cared

doubtless mitigated by the evident ad

present.

thoroughly convinced, after a. protracteO
interview with his wife, that she was
guilty of mo more than an indiscretion

appear, to the satisfaction of the COM
missioner at least, that the gallant in-
volved in the indiscretion was in no
wise guilty as suspected, having acted
at the husbands solicitation as peace
maker and mutual friend between
husband and the wife on trial, and was
unremitting in his efforts to reconcile a
slight arrangement between them. He

The WAYS 30; Of Old rim. Boston.

Visiting in Boston seems IN old times
TO have been attended with some diff
culties, and if the differences which one
would naturally draw from certain en-
tries in the old records are correct, the
authorities of the town were not accus-
toned to be overgiven to the encourage
ment of hospitality, whatever may have
been the case with individuals. For a
meeting of the selectmen of the town
held ON Nov. 10, 1740, for instance, the
record begins as follows:
Mrs. Rebekah Young, Appearing In
forms that She with One Child is lately
come into this Town, from Harwich t.
Visit her Sister, that She intends to re-
turn in the Spring, & that She hsth

witch with her Child or give security to

The good folk of Boston were in a per
petual panic in those days lest they
should get upon their hands to take care
of psupers that really belonged to SONS
other community, and it is very likely
that they had good reason for their fear
and their precautions. One would sup
pose, however, that woman who could

pounds in gold and gear might be of suf-
