DEMURRER SUSTAINED.
The Complaint In the Grifrey Damag,
suit Was Defective.

suit Was Defective.
Superior Judge Johnson has rendered
a decision on the demurrer in the case OF
Lucy Griffey against the Southern Pa
cific Company for $4,000 damages for the
loss of her husband in railroad accident
at Davisville on October %, 1892.
The defendant demurred to the COM
plant on three grounds, the most i'm
portant of which was that there was a de-
feet in regard to the parties plaintiff. The
demurrer was overruled as to TWO of the
grounds, and sustained on that referred
TO. The court says:
1.-The complaint alleges that plaintiff is
one of the heirs of the deceased We
must presume from the text of the conn
plant that there are other heirs beside
plaintiff. Section 81 OF the Code of Civil
Procedure reads:
"'When the death of person, not be
ing minor, is caused by the wrongful
act or neglect of another, his heirs or
personal representatives may maintain
an action
This implies that the action may be
commenced in either of two ways That
is, that the personal representative of tho
deceased, or his heirs, must be parties TO
the action. II the latter, then all must
be-not one of them, as in this case
made parties"
The plaintiff was allowed to amend
her complaint.

HARD FIGHTERS IN LAW.

The Kind of Modern Lawyers Who Sue
ceed Best.
"Clients love a hard fighter, and the
on-loOkcrs are impressed with his zeal"
says Richard D. Doyle in an article on
Law and Lawyers" in the Southern
Magazine. I'm my own experience 1
have had cases where 1 advised my
clients not to sue because I was sure
they had no chal ce, and although they
followed my advice instead of employ
ing other counsel, they refused to pay
a reasonable fee and in one case left
me to pay the court costs. And 1 have
seldom advised a client to compromise
or submit to arbitration that did not
displease him. It requires moral cour-
age to advise one against his inclina-
tions,' but 1t is sometimes a lawyers
sacred duty. Whatever may be said as
to its morality or true wisdom, yet /
must say I regard this aggressive and
partisan spirit more conducive to mod
ern success than profound Judgment,
for l have seen lawyers succeed chiefly
by reason of it in whom the logical fac
ulty was not at all conspicuous. In
speaking of success, it will be observed
that l do not mean the cminence OF
such men as Ersl1ine, Writ, Webster,
William Pinckney, Rufus Choate and
Charles O'Connor, but such success as
is attained by the leading members OF
the bar in every town or city of the
United States, who have good prac
tice, sometimes very lucrative, though
they are unknown to fame and for
gotten outside their neighborhood
when they are gone"

The Monarch will win" is
an expression heard in bicycle
races oftener than anything else.
1t has not yet been heard here
because Monarch Bicycles have
not yet been introduced, but
when they are they will not take
second place in speed, weight or
quality of material.
The Monarch is Just what its
name implies, the King of bicy-
cles, and we are authorized agents
for the Hawaiian Islands.
This wheel is made by a COM
pany whose standing in the manu-
featuring world is at the head;
they are putting money in their
wheels and selling them at low
price because they are not anx-
ious to made themselves rich in
a year. For that reason they
have put the price within the
1each of everyone.
The coming models in the
Monarch are Nos s, 9, 10, II and
II. These include racing and
ladies wheels. They are fitted
with either Demon OF king
fisher" lamps, and with this on
the front end you can see so far
ahead of you that night riding is
moro of a pleasure than you have
been used to. With Monarch
Bicycle you don't have to keep a
lamp on the back to keep drivers
from running over you; the
mechanism Is such that a high
rate of speed is attained without
much muscular power.
Oar prices of the genuine
Monarch wheel will he twenty
1--WE per cent less than you ever
heard of first class bicycle be-
ing sold for. We can do it be-
cause we are the manufacturers
agents and have no middle mans
profits to pay. Call at our store
and examine our Agency papers
and secure a handsomely illus
trated catalogue.
A second hand Columbia safety
can be had of us very cheap, the
owner wishing to dispose Of it
and buy a Monarch.
If you are sceptical call on us
and learn that the place to buy
the best bicycle is at.

FINE ENTERTAINMENT.
~. Louis College Literary Society
in Music and Drama.

~. Louis College Literary Society
in Music and Drama.
Former pupils of st. Louis
College some time ago organized
under the name of st. Louis Col
lege Literary Society for mutual
improvement. Last night the
society, assisted by present pu-
pills, gave a musical and dramatic
entertainment in the large hall of
the college, in connection with
the terminal exercises taking place
this week. Brother Albert directed
the choir and orchestra, and
Brother Francis was piano ac-
companist.
There was an audience that
filed the hall, and therefore
easily estimated at between five
and six hundred people.
The performances of the or
chestra and the choir were most
delightful, evidencing the efficient
tutorship Of music afforded in the
institution. A chorus with panto-
mime, the "Cantate of the Frogs"
preceding closing march by the
orchestra, caused Uncontrollable
mirth. The representations of
the croakers in a forest swamp
were exceedingly clever.
THE Prescribed Her," a drama
in three acts, was given by j. G.
Crowder, Chas. M. Murray, Alf
Rosa. Chas. Rose, Jas. A. Thom-
son, Harry E. Murray, Chas. K.
Hopkins, Ant. Fernandez, Thos.
White and number of "supes
from the school. Thompson spoke
his lines and acted like a profes-
sional in the comic part of Blaise.
Hopkins made an excellent justice
of the peace. Harry E. Murray's
address as a peripatetic quack
was very we'll delivered and set
the house in a roar.
Between the acts p. Gleason
and J. Hansmann gave violin
solos of wonderful power and ex-
preston.
In the second part Ed. Crabbe
in an excellent treble sang the
Wreck of the Hesperus."
Model Tenants" a farce, was
well done and highly amusing.
The characters were taken by
John c Crowder, G X Hopkins,
CL Murray, VIM Jarret, Chas
Rose, II L Murray and j A
Thompson.
This was the first public enter
tainment given at the college
since the stage was furnished
with new scenery. There is a
beautiful drop curtain represent
ing a Roman chariot race, and
some of the scenery is superior to
much of what was in the lately
destroyed Hawaiian Opera House.
