The Remarkable Experiences OF Man
Who Married -Four sisters.
Living IN the mountains OF this county
e. family which has a singular history
IN a matrimonial way. The father owns
a little farm aud four daughters, or did
own the latter. A man named Phillips
about Is years AGO married the eldest Of
these daughters, and after few years OF
married life the lady ran away with the
husbands sworn enemy. He procured a
divorce from her and wooed the second sis
ter and took her home. but the next day
the woman turned up at home and said
she wouldn't live with Philips and after
a time succeeded Ia getting legally free
from him.
Then the third sister. undaunted by
what had gone before. married the hus-
hand Of her two sisters. soon after this
the fellow was sent 70 the penitentiary for
an offense that kept him three years there,
and when he came out he found that his
wife's tickle fancy had strayed while he
was absent and had fixed itself upon a
neighbor, John Callahan. BY law she
was entitled 10 a divorce from her hus-
band, as ho was a convicted felon, so get
ing Il she married her lover.
In the meantime the flrsl wife had found
that the man with whom she had eloped
would not marry her after Phillips had
divorced her and returned home. Then
Mrs. Callahan wandered back TO her IA
Their, for husband No. would not support
her. So in this way the old man had once
more his four daughters onahis hands, and
Phillips was still free.
The youngest daughter was now about
Is. and she also fell a victim TO the fascina-
ton the man Phillips appears to have ex-
erted over them all at first, and becoming
infatuated with him consented TO marry
him. Phillips went % the father for the
fourth time 10 ask for q daughters hand
and was told that he might have her on
condition that he kept her.
Phillips promised, and the ceremony
was to take place the following night,
when the ex-wives, growing jealous, arm
ed themselves and swore that the mar
riage should never take place. So Phillips
rode 20 town and swore out warrant
AGAINST the sisters. telling Of their threats.
The women were sworn then TO keep the
peace, but Phillips thought it prudent,
however, TO run away with his bride to
Kentucky and marry her there This time
his venture seems 20 have terminated hap
PLY, for he has three children and is pros
pcring. -Murfreesboro Cor. Philadelphia

those with Great Britain, France
or Russia, the expression is clear
and free from ambiguity.
Unfortunately, however, the re-
lations of Hawaii would not be free
from difficulty, even if it could be
shown that japanese under this
treaty are not entitled to the fran
chise upon the same terms az other
foreigners. The treaty affords a
peg quite good enough to hang a
claim upon, and it is to be feared
that our friends the japanese, will
construe the treaty in their own
interest rather than in the interest
of Hawaii.

A QUICK-sTEP.

The account of the proceedings
in the House of Commons, looking
toward the abolition of the House
Of Lords will be read with keen in
terest by all who are interested in
catching the strain of that mighty
music of progress to which the
whole creation moves. The march
of events in England seems
to be qutck-step just now,
where the House of Com
mons, even on snap vote, can
pass resolution in favor of abol-
ishing the House of Peers, and the
Prime Minister of England-him-
self peer to boot,-can declare
the hereditary Legislators an ano-
maiy and an anachronism.
It is not impossible that the
opening of the twentieth century
may see the last traces of medieval
architecture removed from the no.

THE GLORIOUS FOURTH.

The Fourth District has elected
Tim" Murray and Edward Towse
az It's representatives TO the Cen
trail Committee OF the America n
Union party. The Fourth is
Tommy" Lucas's Old district. It
is always distinguishing itself. NJ.
Towse is a most amiable gentle
man, but, unless we are much de-
ceived, he has not been in the
country long enough to vote.
AS the poet judiciously observes,
he voted others, himself be could
not vote.

As for the Monroe doctrine, it is
beyond doubt very comforting
one for Hawaii, but it will not fit
all situations. 1t may protect
Hawaii from a japanese seizure,
but will not secure her labor in
terests from the consequences of
japanese hostility. When Hawaii
is part Of the United States her
industries will enjoy the same pro-
lection as is enjoyed by the plan
tations of Louisiana. She can then
lay aside her painful industrial
dependence. Until then, she can
not afford to quarrel with Power
$4,000 of whose subjects reside in
Hawaii, and who constitute the
backbone of her labor force.
The actual power which the
japanese Government has over its
subjects in this country is an en-
tirely unknown quantity. No
doubt there is no legal power in
the home Government to withdraw
them. Whether, however, the
force of the paternal system and
the habit of unresisting submission
to feudal authority would be strong
enough to do the work of direct
legal authority, seems to be, so far
az we have been able to ascertain,
an uncertain matter. In any case,
the adoption of such a policy could
hardly fail to be embarrassing to
Hawaii.
In the meanwhile, the proper
course for this nation is to estab- |
lish suitable franchise and create |
a free and republican government,
without regard to pressure from
foreign powers.

THE JAPANESE TREATY.

The relations between Hawaii
and japan are regulated, apart
from the provisions of international
law, by treaty and convention
The first was negotiated in 1871
when G. G. Harris was Minister OF
Foreign Affairs, notifications being
exchanged by the respective pleni-
potentiaries, G.. Z. De Long for this
country and Messrs. Sawa Iusanme
Kiyawara Noluyoshe and Terra
china Jusee Fugiwarra Munemori
for japan. The second is the Labor
, Convention, negotiated in 1886.
The treaty of 1871 was a COM
mercial one, and it is very brief.
1t contains two articles which bear
upon the question of political
rights. They are as follows:
Article III. The subjects of each of
the two high contracting parties,
respectively, shall have the liberty
ships and cargOeS to all places, ports
and rivers in the territories of the
other, where trade with other nations
Is permitted; they may remain and
reside in any such ports, and places
respectively, and hire and occupy
houses and warehouses, and may
trade in all kinds of produce, manu-
features and merchandise of lawful
commerce. enjoying at all times the
go l.
may hereafter be granted to the citi-
zens or subjects of any other nation,
paying at all times such duties and
taxes as may be eXacted from the
citizens or subjects of other nations
doing business or residing within the
Territories OF each of the high cons
tracing parties.
Article w. 1t is is hereby stipu-
lated that the Hawaiian Government
land its subjects, upon like terms and
conditions, will be allowed free and
lequal participation in all privileges,
immunities and advantages that may
have been or may hereafter be granted
by His Majesty, the Tenno of Japan,
to the Government, citizens or sub
jects of any other nation.
/ L. is far from clear that these ar
ticles intend to grant political priv
fieges among the others which are
accorded. The context of Article
III plainly refers only to CONNER
cial privileges. Article " is pos
Fibly somewhat broader in its
scope, but it should be noted that it
contains the phrase, "upon like
serms and conditions" which would
teem to be a reference to the pro-
TisIoDs of Article ". In that case
be second article would be con-
rolled by the first, and its mean
ng determined by reference to the
lormer.
There is no settled form that we
ire aware Of for the favored ma
Jon" clause. At the same time it
significant that, in treaties like

ter Stevens, the conclusion Is reached
that the act IF the Minister was with
out authority, and was void for want
of power. This act, as Will De remem-
bered, was disavowed by Secretary
Foster under the last administration.
The majority say, however, that while
the precedent is not one TO be justified
it has resulted in no actual HARM

Mr.. z. Z. HESDRY, Manager Hawaiian
Hardware Co., Honolulu.
DEAR SIR:-I have just completed some
three miles of the Jones Locked Fence"
and must say that am very much pleased
with it, in fact it is THE fence for a ranch.
1 had about a mile to construct over
''pahoehoe, where it was nearly impos-
sible to get post down and found, in this
case especially, the Jones Fence was
great saving of labor. There are places in
this fence where the posts are at least IS
feet apart, the space between filed in with
stays. There is no sag to it and 1t Is as
springy as a wire mattress. am confident
that it will turn ordinary stock.
l have some two and a half miles more
to construct over a country where wild cat
tie are very plentiful, and as soon as it has
undergone the test there will write you
further. If it will turn the stock on this
part of the land, and 1 am confident it will.
you can rest assured that it will turn most
anything except lava flow.
Very truly yours,
j. MONSARRAT.

Curiosities Of Arithmetic Tables.

There are two or three standards Of
measurement that appear in the tables,
but which comparatively few people un-
derstand. The hairbreadth, the barley
corn and the ell are the most common
stumbling blocks and need explanation.
The table of measures says that three bar
leycorns make one inch, and so they do.
When the standards of measures were first
Established, three barleycorns, well dried,
were taken and laid end to end, three be-
ing understood to make an inch in length.
The hairbreadth, now used indefinitely
and conventionally for infnitesimal space,
was regular measure, 16 hairs laid side
by side equaling one barleycorn. The ell
was the exact length of the forearm of Ed
ward III, who established, or rather re-
vised, the system of weights and measures
in use in his time.-St. Louis Globe Dem
