RECENT DISCOVERIES.

Although many new and important discov-
cries have recently been made in various
sciences there is probably none of greater
Importance to the people than the one recent
Iy made by DIR. SHoOP, which is attracting
the attention of physicians and all classes Of
people throughout the world.
We refer to the discovery as to the cause of
chronic diseases of the stomach liver Kid
neys and internal organs.
The doctor has traced the cause to certain
nerves that have control of these organs, and
a preparation he prepares to act upon these
special nerves. the cause is removed and with
it the disease.

Cleveland and the "Reformers."

The Hon. Carl Schurz, editor of Har-
per's Weekly, in pointing out to the
Democratic party some Of the lessons
it should take to heart in the great de-
feat of November 7, admits that "bad
times" cannot explain it. "Great poll
tical upheavals are not explained in
such way, especially when they occur
in off years. when ordinarily the in
terest in politics is but languid," says
Mr.. Schurz. 1.-The truth is that the
Democratic party has in conspicuous
manner failed to justify the confidence
of many good citizens who last year at
the Presidential election gave it their
support

Christmas falls on Monday this
year We have the authority of an
old poetic philosopher for including
this fact among the signs of a hard
winter. The document, according to
The London Times, twas unearthed in
1865 from the Harleian manuscripts
No. 2252, folios 1884," in the British
Museum. It reads as follows:
If Christmas Day on Monday be,
a great winter that year you'll see,
And full of winds both loud and shrill;
But in summer truth to tell,
High winds shall there be, and strong,
Full of tempests lasting long;
While battles they shall multiply.
And great plenty of beasts shall die,
They that be born that day, ween,
They shall be strong each one and keen;
He shall be found that stealeth aught;
Tho thou be sick, thou diest not.

AFTER HIS SCALP.
McDoWelPs Men Want the Con.
tractors to Pay Their
Wages.

Failing to float the Miowera,
after stalking all he had in the
world on his chance, was not the
only piece of bad luck that Arthur
Mcdowell has had during the last
three or four days. He is unable
to pay his men their wages and his
alleged "backers" refuse to, and
Mcdowell is between the devil and
the deep sea. On the one hand is
a debt of a little over $3.50 staring
him in the face, and on the other a
crowd of fifty or sixty men, all
swearing vengeance if they do not
receive their money.
The fence around the lot oppo-
site the marshaPs Office had the
said fifty or sixty men seated on it
all Monday afternoon, waiting for
Mcdowell to appear with their
money. But he didn't material
ize, and the men are still waiting.
Monday morning Mcdowell
heard that the men were looking
for him, and that there was blood
in their eyes. He went to the po-
lice station and asked for protec-
ton as he thought he was in bod
lily danger. He sat in the station
for two hours and thought over the
bitterness of his fate.
In the afternoon, his timekeeper
appeared at the station house, and
each man checked over his time as
entered on the books, and ex-
pressed his opinion as to the likeli-
hood of his ever receiving it.
Numerous offers were made to
sell their claims for from 80 to rs
per cent. discount, with no takers.
Just how Mcdowell is going to
get out of his scrape, he alone prob
ably knows. He promised the men
three dollars day and double pay
for night work, and double this in
case the scheme was successful.
But it wasn't, and now it looks
very much as though the men had
devoted their time to the contrae-
tor for love.

session by defendants so as to bring
it to the notice Of the owner, nor
that the claim of defendants was
distinct and hostile to the rightful
papel title nor the points above
stated.
The second point of plaintiffs
motion | override.
The motion for a new trial is
granted, and the verdict set aside.
BY THE COURT.
The trial of the case occupied
several days, and the evidence ad-
duced was very voluminous. We
have carefully examined and consid-
cred all this testimony, and we are Of
the opinion that the findings of the
trial Judge and the grounds upon
which he granted new trial are well
sustained by the evidence. It is clear
~ case of permissive holding on
the part of the defendants and not
one of adverse possession. Elikai,
one of the defendants, says, "The
first time that 1 publicly stated to
anybody that 1 owned the land aud
would not pay rent, was when Mr..
Dowsett, junior, came there and
asked, and 1 was the only man, the
one man of the whole lot that re-
fused to pay rent, and said that the
reason was that the land was mine;"
and when asked how long ago that
was, he says, "Not very long ago; /
don't remember what year it was,
but not very long ago" The evil
dence of other witnesses would in
dictate that this visit of Dowsett,
junior, took place about six or seven
years ago.
This case seems to US to be almost
a parallel one to the case of G. r.
Bishop ct al, trustees, vs.. Kals ct
al, 7th Haw., $50. In that case the
verdict was set aside and new trial
ordered, the Court saying, The
weight of the whole evidence is so
clearly and decidedly in favor of the
plaintiffs, that we feel that the jury
must either have misunderstood its
effect or have acted, when they
returned a verdict for defendants,
from some bias or prejudice" We
feel that this language is applics-
bic to the case at bar. We
have before US the charge of the
Court to the jury in this case, and the
law was we'll laid down and explain
ed, as to what constituted adverse
possession and what constituted only
permissive occupation or possession.
This must have been disregarded by
the jury, for if they had applied the
law as given by the Court to the evil
dence, they could not have found
the verdict they did.
The decision and order of the Cir
cult Court setting aside the verdict
and ordering new trial is sus-
tanned.
Exceptions overruled.
G. Brown for plaintiff; G. w. Ash
ford for defendants.

SEPTEMBER TERN, 1893.

A publication may be libellous. although it
refers to person indirectly, as where
it is allegorical.
a publication may be libellous, although it
does not impute criminal offense.
1t is for the Court to say whether publ
cation is capable of the meaning at
tached to it by the Innuendoes, and for
the jury to say whether that is the true
meaning.
Where words are libellous only when read
in the light of extrinslc facts, such facts
must be averred. and the words must
be connected with them by cOllo7uia.
An innuendo can explain words, but can
not add to them a sense which they do
not ordinarily bear.
An indictment for words capable OF libel
lous meaning may, upon demurrer,
be amended by the insertion of aver
ments and colloguia to show that the
meaning is libelious.

that Mr.. w. G. Irwin was detained

The secretary, Mr.. w. o. Smith,
announced that twenty-eight plan
tations and eight individuals were
represented.
At 10:45 President Irwin ar
rived.
AS soon as he took the chair he
announced that but few were
present at the meeting. He had
conversed with prominent members
of the association, and, after such
consultation, it was his opinion
that the interests of the Planters
Labor and Supply Company de-
manded an adjournment. Mr..
Irwin said so few were present at
the meet that he thought it would
be well to adjourn the meeting to
December 4th.
Mr.. J. 0. Carter moved that the
meeting stand adjourned to De-
cember 4th, at 10 AM.
Secretary Smith said the delay
had been caused by the early ma
turity of the crops, which had
forced the grinding a month ahead
at least this year.
Mr.. Irwin said that the crops had
matured at least a month before
the usual tine, and he also pointed
out that several important ques-
tons would come before the meet
ing this year. He suggested that
in keeping with these facts it was
necessary to adjourn the meeting
of the Planters Labor and Supply
Company to the time specified.
Mr.. Schaefer suggested that the
secretary send notices to all the
members of the company.
Mr.. w. o. Smith, the secretary,
said he had already sent notices to
the members, but that should the
company recorder he would again
send them.
The motion to adjourn to Decem-
Der 4th, at 10 AN, was carried.
After the motion was carried,
Mr.. Irwin stated informally that
certain important matters were to be
brought up at the coming meeting
under the auspices of the Planters
Labor and Supply Company which
would need the consideration.
Secretary Smith said another
matter of some Importance would
come up before the meeting; he
referred to the employment of Prof.
Koebele to exterminate pests in
Hawaii. Secretary Smith said that
during the past year there had been
an alarming increase in the nature
of pests on these islands, and that
it was necessary to check them at
once.
After the informal remarks
offered, the meeting adjourned to
December 4th, at 10 o'clock AN.

A prominent cash prize advocaS de-

when the former announced their inten-
ton TO found a makers amateur class.
Messrs. Howard Perry, James q. Sulli-
van and w. B. Curtis are strongly in
favor of continuing the alliance. A
number of members of the A. A. L.
contend that they should have repre-
sentative upon some Of the L. a. w.
boards.
1t is reported that the National
Cyclists Association rather anticipate
that the Amateur Athletic Union will
take some steps 10 independently as
sumo Jurisdiction over amateur cycle
racing, considering the stand that the
L. A. w. people are taking.
The whole trouble between the A, A.
c. and the L. A. w. seems TO be that
the L. A. w. allows very liberal prizes,
while the A. A. y. goes to the other ex-
IRENE, and a medal is the highest award
for winning an event.
Local wheeImen aver that the discon-
tnuance of the articles OF alliance be-
tween the A. A. u. and l.. A. w. will
not interfere with their organization one
bit. They acknowledge that the ALI
ance was entirely in favor of their body,
and that a break will make no material
difference in the relations between the
two organization. The L. A. w. men
would not say what the result would be
if the A. A. U. refused to recognize
their riders In the class b rule. The
subject OF discontinuing the alliance
has been discussed at the recent meet
ing OF the A. A. u.
