The Supreme Court met st 10
o'clock yesterday morning to hear
what Fred Wundenberg had to say
in regard to the charges preferred
against him. The full Court wss
in attendance. Attorney-Genersl
W. o. Smith was the prosecuting
attorney, and Paul Neumsnn and
c. W. Ashford appeared for Wun-
denberg.
The Acknowledgement read the
charges that he had preferred
against Wundenberg, and as soon
as he had finished, the defense put
in 8 plea to have the charges made
more specific. Mr.. Neumann
claimed that his client was entitled
to specifications, and should not be
tried without them
Acknowledgement Smith objected
on the grounds that the specifics
tions were fully set forth in the
summons 10 appear before the
court.
Mr.. Ashford said that as the pro-
ceedings were of a criminal nature
Wunderberg was fully entitled to
hsve fall specifications. He then
took the pains 10 make few re-
marks derogatory to the Constitu-
ton of Hawaii, for which be was
promptly squelched by Chief JUS
tice Judd, who also said that this
was no criminal action, but simply
misconduct in Office.
After argument had been made
on both sides, the Court, after &
short consultation, gave their de-
cision in favor of granting Wun-
denberg's plea for fuller specifca-
tons. Attorney-General Smith then
said that he would be ready to pro-
eeed on Wednesday, and the case
was postponed until that day.

The investigation Of the alleged
misconduct in Office of F. W
Wundenberg, the clerk of the Su-
preme Court, was continued in the
Supreme Court all day Wednesday,
Only three witnesses were examined
Marshal Hitchcock, J. NJ. Vivas and
Wundenburg himself.
Marshal Hitchcock was the first
witness. His testimony was substsn-
tally as follows:
Il called st the clerks Office on the
10Th Of March LAST, and had 3 conyer-
sstion with Wundenberg. He was
bitter in his denuncistion OF the Pro.
visional Government and said that il
was simply 6 family and missionary
Arrangement, and that we Hawai-
isus' had no show; that strangers
were given all the lucrative posts and
that those who had been born here
were left in the cold. He cursed the
Government and talked like s man
who was disappointed about some
thing. 1 saw him again in the latter
part Of April, or perhaps the first part
Of May, at his house on Richard
street He was again bitter against
the Government and its methods in
not providing positions for men born
in the country. He objected to those
people who hsd only been here g short
time being placed in positions under
the Government, and mentioned the
names Of Morgan and MeCandless as
instances"
J. u. FiEas was the next witness
called He said that he had met
Wundeuberg ST the Office OF VOlney
Ashford in last April He had been
talking over the situation with Ash
ford and r. ". Wilcox. When Wun-
denberg came in, the talk turned on
the landing Of the United States
troops from the Boston. Wgnden-
J l=rg claimed that the revolution took
place after the marines had landed.
EiTas said that Wundenberg had told
him that if he was convinced that
such was the fact, he should go to
Blount and tell him so. st the same
time, he characterized Minister Stew
ems as "an old rascal" Vivas told
Wundenberg that he did not think
that any conspiracy had existed be
tween Minister Stevens and the Pro-
visioual Government. Wuudenberg
claimed that there was such a con-
spiraey, and that it had existed, but
what his exact words were, the Wit
ness did not remember. During the
conversation Wundenberg sEOre at
the Provisional Government and de-
nOunced il for some OF its acts which
did not seem TO suit him.
When Wundenberg was put on the
stand, he was Questioned by his at
tOrneys as TO his actions, and Of
course, put them in the most favor
able light to himself. When he was
being crOss-examinsd By Attorney
General Smith, however, he got nerv-
Gus at several Of the questions put
him, and seemed to act as though a
personal insult was being offered him
because he was required to answer
questions that would cause q not very
favorable conclusion to be drawn as
70 his double-faeed dealings with the
Government.
He was asked on the eross-examin-
alton II he did not know that the Pro-
Tisiou2l Government had been formed
70 exist until some terms Of union
With the United States had been
agreed upon2

He LOSES his GLERKS4IP IN
TaE SUPREME COURT.
The Full Text of the Courts Decision
il This Cause CeIebre Given
Below.

The Supreme Court Friday
handed down its decision in the
Wuadenberg case, which is very
disturbing to that gentleman's feel
ings. The Court found that he had
violated his oath of allegiance to
the Provisional Government and
that he deserved to be removed.
The foil text of the decision fol-
lows:
BEFORE THE JUSTICES OF THE ST.
PREME COURT.
In the matter Of the alleged miscon-
duct Of F. w. Wundenberg, a
Deputy Clerk of the Judiciary De-
partment and Clerk Of the Circuit
Court, First Circuit.
JUDD, CD, BIcKERToS AND FREAR, u.
OPINION OF THE JUSTICES.
By the statute, Section SO of the Act
to Reorganize the Judiciary Depart
ment. which went into effect January
l, 1893, "aII clerks Cof the Judiciary
DEPARTMENT., shall be liable to remov-
al for ineficiency or misconduct by
the Justices Of the Supreme Court"
By implication and by well considered
decisions on similar statutes a removal
can be made, not at the pleasure of
the Justices, but only after charges
have been preferred against the Off
Ger, a reasonable time given him to
prepare his defense, and opportunity
to cross-examine the witnesses against
him, and be heard in his own defense.
1t will thus be seen that the tenure
Of Office of the clerks of the Judiciary
Department differs from that Of clerks
of other departments, who ara remov-
able at the pleasure Of those appoint
ing them. The requirement Of the
statute has been complied with in the
present case. This Is quasi-judicial
investigation and, although it need
not be conducted with the forInality
and soIemnity Of a criminal trial, we
have thought il best to proceed in this
instance according to the rules Of ju-
dicial procedure.
The information was presented by
the Attorney General on his official
oath charging misconduct Of the re-
suondent, who Is a clerk Of this de-
partment, and was amended at the

The case of F. W. Wundenberg
was continued Thursday morning
before Chief Justice Judd and JUS
tees Bickerton and Frear.
The first witness called was
Harry Won Holt, who testified as to
the alteration between the defend
ant and Cathcart.
Acknowledgement W. o. Smith
testified that he did not know of the
statements alleged to have been
made to Marshal Hitchcock until a
few days ago. He had heard of an
alteration between Wundenberg
and Cathcart. He had not brought
this inquiry on account of any,
thing that had been printed in the
newspapers. What had been rep
resented as having been said to
Blount was one of the causes.
After Chief Justice Judd had
told of some other evidence that
had come to his hearing, Judge
Cooper was called to the stand.
He said he had not asked Wunden-
berg to sign any paper, in spite of
the lstter's statement that he had.
When Judge Cooper had finished
his testimony the attorneys for the
defense and prosecution argued
their cases, and the case was sub
mitted to the Court for decision.

this clever invention, do not know,

she resumed her seat, laughing merrily;

twinkle in her eyes, =" l think this is
the kind of talisman your little daughter
deserves for having such clever
mother" -Harper'S Magazine.

Before the Doctor Comes.

Many wise woman has helplessly
wrung her hands when disease has
stepped over her threshold because she
had no remedies with which to fight
the enemy, writes Helen Jay in the
May LADIES' Home Journal. Perhaps
the doctor cannot come or she has no
one to send for him, and the drug store
is miles away. Every wife and mother
should, in some degree at least, learn
what to do in an emergency of this
kind, and she should never be guilty of
that crime against the well-being of her
household-an empty medicine chest.
She should see to it that the hot-water
bags or bottles are always ready for use,
and that the jar is full of mustard. A
bundle of cloths for bandages and plas-
tiers should be within these, so that no
matter how great the panic into which
she may be thrown she cannot fail to
find them. To get the patient into bed,
surrounded with hot-water bags, after
soaking the feet in hot water and mus
tard, is to forestall some of the good
offices of the best physician. To re-
store failing circulation there is nothing
better than mustard plasters, made with
hot water, and placed upon the sole of
each foot, the back of the neck, each
wrist and the stomach.

Habits of Night Birds.

Nocturnal creatures are generally
supposed not to see we'll in the daylight,
but facts collected are gradually dis
peling the idea. 1t is well known that
felines, which see well by night, seem
10 be able to see quite as we'll by day,
and this is being found true of many
other creatures. The bat sees admir-
ably by daytime, as any one can ascer-
tain by threatening it with a twig. The
owl, also, has first.rate day sight. Night
flying Lepidoptera, when disturbed in
their places of refuge during the day,
have no difficulty in seeing at once where
is the nearest and best places for a
temporary refuge. These and similar
facts are being made use of by those
interested in the study of development.
1t might be assumed that all were
originally light-.overs, but prote ctive
cor siderations, or better chances of
getting food, led to the development of
the night-roving disposition. The owl,
for instance, is hated by all birds.
Where one is discovered by other day
loving species they subject it to the
direst persecution. Owls could scarcely
live as day-loving bird under the pres
ent order of things. Itwould be driven
from the earth; and, supposing it took
on gradually its thieving habits for a
living, it has had to love darkness
rather than light because of these evil
deeds. At any rate, the naked fact
seems to be that night working crea-
lures can generally see well in the day
light when they want to go.

Preparing for Autumn.

Many of your plants will require re-
potting before you take them in for the
winter, writes Eben Rexford in the
valuable department "All About Flow
ers," in the August Ladies' Home
Journal. Begin TO get material ready
now. You will find it a pleasant task
to 90 into the woods and pastures with
a basket and trowel, and gather turfv
matter and leaf-mold from about old
stumps and in the corner of the fence.
And while you are getting soil together
for reporting plants this fall be sure
and get more than you need for that
purpose, and store it away for winter
use. There will always be plants that
need top dressing with fresh soil, and
some will require an entire change of
earth, and there will be new ones, and
80 supply of potting material will
cone handy all the year round. Don't
wait until cold weather is at hand be-
fore you begin the work of reporting.
Do it while you have warm and pleas
ant days, and the work will be done
better than it would be in cold, raw
weather. Another reason why it
should be done now is: 1t will give
your plants chance to get established
before it is time to take them into the
house. If you wait until the last mo-
ment, they will not have recovered
from the disturbance which their roots
must undergo, and they will go into
winter quarters in condition far from
what it ought to be.

Etiquette i'm Persia.

DIR. Wills, an Englishman who lived
many years in Persia, says that until
lately it was the rule that no male per-
son over ten years of age should be
found on the road over which royal
wife or daughter was to pass. A viola
ton of the rule was punished with
death. Even now, be says, Europeans
wisely avoid unpleasantness by turning
aside when they hear the shouts which
indicate the approach of the "palace
ladies'" The late American minister,
Mr.. Benjamin, made great mistake on
one occasion by neglecting this pre-
caution. With true American simple
ity he was accustomed to ride through
the streets with only one servant. Meet
ing the procession one day he failed to
turn out of its path. The result was
that this servant was beaten and he
himself was hustled into by-road. The
next day he duly lodged a complaint of
his treatment, but he had to put up
with the apology that, naturally, the
royal servants would not recognize
one horse minister" An Austrian
service of the shah, was wiser in his
generation. He met the late queen
mother and the royal ladies when he
was on foot, lurnod his face to the wall
like native, and as each carriage
passed deliberately saluted from the
back of his head. The ladies screamed
with laughter and told the shah, who
persuaded him to repeat his novel sa-
lutes and then congratulated him on his
scretion.-PiOneer Press.

A Romantic Wedding.

We often hear of marriages taking
place under the most romantic condi-
tons, not only in novels but in real
life. Jack and Jill, resolved to wed,
not infrequently find the path of true
love bestrewn with thorns in the shape
of stern parents and other obstacles
to the attainment of the matrimonial
estate, and quite as frequently do Jack
and Jill rise superior TO those obstacles
and, swapping their fingers at cavilers,
settle down to the enjoyment of domes-
tic life. Possibly as romantic we'd
ding as was ever celebrated was that in
which, according to an often-told anec-
dote, the venerable Dean Swift played
an important part. The dean, while
wandering through the countryside, as
was his wont, was one day overtaken
by storm. Seeking shelter beneath a
tree, he found there party of young
girls waiting for the storm to cease.
One of the girls was weeping bitterly,
and the dean, upon making sympathetic
inquiries as to the cause thereof, learned
that she was on her way to marry a
young man who was with her. Never
mind, III marry you," said the dean,
and taking out his prayer-book then
and there performed the ceremony.
To make the ceremony complete, he
tore leaf from his pocket-book and
with his pencil wrote and signed a GER
tifcate and handed it to the bride.
The certificate was as follows:
Under tree in stormy weather,
| married this man and woman together;
Let none by him who rules the thunder
Sever this man and woman asunder.

A Bit of Royal Vanity.

The only trait of vanity which l ever
noticed in Empress Elizabeth was the
pride she took in her magnificent chest
nut hair, which fell below her knees.
She used to have it brushed for hours
every day, whilst her reader" Mile.
F., read TO her English. French, or
Hungarian novels. Her Majesty was
particularly anxious that the dressers
who brushed her long tresses should
avoid pulling cut single hair. This,
of course, was an impossibility, and the
unfortunate maid concealed carefully
in the pocket of her apron any hair
which became entangled in the brush.
One day the empress, happening to
glance into the looking-glass, caught
sight of the maid cOncealing a small
roll of hair in the above described
fashion. Jumping up from her rocking.
