Q-How did Mr.. Getchell treat YOU?
A.-Pretty good.
Q.-Was he niwsys a pleasant m n?
A Yes. When he would come home
full i,c was sometimes kind of fcetty, but
not TO amount to anything.
Witness had heard Mr.. Getchell say he
didn't want to live any longer; that he was
tired of living.
He said little while before he died
that If he had the courage he would tie a
rope around bis neck snd around the limb
of an apple tree and jump out Of the apple
tree.
Cross-examined-Saw Getchell and Fow-
Ter come directly int) the house that Satur-
day noon.
She was certain he went for water after
he came.
Odd you state before the grand jury
thss ne went for water!
Aim sure did.
Saw him drink some cider the first of the
week.
Didn't you tell the grand jury he had
nothing to drink 10 the house that week:
Al told he had some cider the first of
the week
Was 10 the house, after returning from
Nash's, all the forenoon Of the day that
Henry died. Didn't see the gin bottle that
day and indi gnantly replied to the question
whether she put anything in it, There was
no one there save self mother and George.
Odd MIR. Track stay there Thursday
night?
Al can't remember. | don't think he
did.
Q-IIow many times has he been there
since!
Al don't know. Two or three times.
He was hauling hay there.
Witness was sure she told the grand
jury she saw him drink some cider the first
Of the week.
Should say that afternoon she was in the
house 90 minutes before she took George
ont to play. He was noisy, and Mr.. Getch-
ell couldn't bear it. Was gu. with George
most of the afternoon. Ddn't remember
a square fl At bottle in the buttery.

the day of the meeting. The
"kick" is against handicapping
PAGERS by making them go to
road carts while trotters go to
sulky. We are generally averse
to see a race programme made up
with special horses, in view as
entering for special horses, but
we admit that in a very small
country like this with very
limited number of race horses
conditions alter cases. The Idrer-
riser kicker" states that there
are eight PAGERS ready to start in
the race to which objection is
made, if the handicap is taken
of and he also says that "the
trotters eligible for this race have
better records than the PAGERS
We would like to have the Ad
uertiscr mention the name of the
eight PAGERS ready to start and
also of the records of the "eligi-
BILE trotters. The best known
PAGERS like Creole, Silky, Gerster
and others, cannot enter in the
2.40 class-in fact we know of
only one PAGER and one trotter
eligible. The PAGER belongs to
Mr.. r. Davis and was imported
from California while the trotter
is Mr.. C. Macfarlane's Hawaiian
bred horse. Fred Mac. we are
always anxious to learn and if of
other horses are to be entered in
the class we may change our views
in regard to the handicap.-The
best time made by Fred Mac, is
2:41 while as far as we know Mr.
Davis horse has no public record.
There is another race on the
programme for PAGERS and
trotters, free for all and without
class restriction and without
handicap and that ought to be
satisfactory to the owners of the
eight wonderful PAGERS. We
believe that horse-races under
the patronage of the Hawaiian
Jockey Club should have as an
object the true sport and the
improvement of the breed in
Hawaii. They certainly should
not make a chance gambling
little or no better than the games
s'ruu in by the ever vigilant
Captain Lorrin Andrews.-We
shall return to this subject and
probably furnish our readers
with some information that will
prove that the handicap in the
2:4O class is justiable. The
dark" horse business is played
out here. Neither true horse
men nor the public approve of
that principle.

Coercion.

We have refused to believe
that there was any truth IN the
generally circulated report that a
certain local firm had instructed
his employees to register or
resign. As the employees of the
said firm have neither registered
nor resigned. the rumor ought to
iall dead or go to the Adwrtissr.
Today it is told that a number OF
faithful Hawaiian workers for a
certain lumber firm are told to
register before Saturday or git :
If the provisional government
thinks it makes supporters in that
manner it ;s ''out of tune"

The Old Cry.

I'VE should consider that these
people are enlightened human
beings, products of the same stock
that produced the patriot fathers
of 1776 and the heroes of 1875.
We should consider that they are
of the race that has carried
progress, liberty. and light to
every quarter Of the earth. And
We should ask ourselves whether
human freedom is likely to perish
ut our or any other demand so
long as they have it In their
charge. Tue truth Is that we
shall be the chief victims OF such
a folly as is contemplated In the
proposed abrogation OF the
Hawaiian treaty. We shall lose
our hold over the most important
strategic point in the Pacific
ocean, our claim to the confidence
and sympathy of a brave and
admirable people. : And what we
lose some other great power will
