the courts will give that Interpretation

the courts will give that Interpretation
the force of law.
In the hat trimmings cases the er-
ror was the omission from a para
graph of the law Of 1883 of the word
vegetable" No one knows just
where this word dropped out of the
law, but the law as passed provided
that duty of 20 per cent should be
collected on that's, ETC., materials,
braids, plaits laces, trimmings, will
low sheets and squares used for MAX
ing or ornamenting hats, bonnets and
goods composed of straw, chip, grass,
palm leaf, willow hair, whalebone or
any other substance or material not
specially enumerated or provided for"
1t was intended to have the word
vegetable" precede the word Sub
stance" so that the material not spe-
c1ally provided for, to be admitted at 20
per cent, should be limited to vegetable
substances. Silk ribbons used in part
for the trimming Of hats were classed
by the treasury as unenumerated manu-
factures Of silk and paid duty at the
rate Of so per cent under another para
graph Of the law.
In 1885 an importer named Langfelt
brought suit against the collector of the
pert here, claiming that some cotton
back ribbon, Of which he had imported
very large quantity, was dutiable at
~ per cent only, ana that excessive du-
ties had been collected from him. He
won his suit in the lower court before
jury which was instructed by Judge
McKennan that If the chief use Of the
ribbons was the trimming of hats they
came under the paragraph quoted
above. This decision was affirmed in the
supreme court eventually, and Sc, 6,000,-
600 were refunded on it, A man named
Edelhoff, who imported hatbands, after
ward brought suit in New York, and
he also received a verdict and hand
some refund.
Then Meyer & Dickinson, of Philadel-
phia, brought suit on another class Of
goods used as hat trimmings and got
a verdict for $63240 from a Philadel-
phia jury on the 10Th of June, 1891
That verdict for $632.40, If sustained,
meant loss Of probably $25, 900 to
the government. The attorney gen.
eral of the United States gave instruc-
tions to have the cases appealed to the
supreme court. There the judgment Of
the lower court was affirmed.
The Langfelt case was reheard by the
supreme court, and the judgment in
favor of the plaintiff was affirmed final
ly on the very day when the Meyer &
Dickinson case was decided by the fury
in. this city. Tt is probable the rehear-
ing to be given by the supreme court in
a short time will be the last Of this IA
nous litigation.

compromise the hat trimmings cases

The City Of Washington is an object Of
perennial interest to all patriotic Americans.
Not alone because it Is the great throbbing
heart of the mightiest and grandest Republic
the earth has ever known, but also on account
of its material magnifcence. All Americans
take pride in Its beautiful avenues, majestic
architecture, stately homes and well-stored
galleries and museums things Of grandeur
and beauty in themselves, apart from the his
toric interest with which they are invested
1t is a hope and aspiration Of all young
America" at least, at some time or other to
visit the Capital of this country.
The Baltimore Ohio r. R. offers unequaled
facilities in aid of this desire. All its through
trains between New York, Philadelphia and
Baltimore on the east, and Pittsburg, Cincin-
natl, St, Louis and Chicago on the west, pass

The disbanding of the Olympic Athletic

fighting in America.
Joe Werrick, who played second base for
the Minneapolis club last season. has a griev-
ance against Manager Wilmot He claims
that he was kept on the reserve list of the
Minneapolis club until it was too late for him
to secure another position in the Western
league. Had he been footloose he would have
signed with Grand Rapids, but that oppor-
tunity is now passed.

NATURAL SOUP SPRING.
1t Is Boiling Hot and SatfsGen
Hunger of Travellers

The free soup houses might have been die.
pensed with during the hard times if the peo
pie oI nevada had only put up barrels of
tne chicken soup that bubbles from the foot
Mills OF the Sierra Nevadas, in Elko county.
New. and dispatched it to the poor in our
great Cities
Incredible as it may seem, It is neyertba-
Iess TACT that soup is natural product and
nave often satisfied my hunger from this
oolilng hot SPRING which, judging by the pal
ate, Is simply natures hot soup tureen.
Ine pool, scarcely 100 yards in diameter,
lies just off the stage road among the foot
hills of the Sierra Nevada mountains. The
traveller comes upon 1t just after crossing the
TOLL bridge over the Humboldt river which
rushes like cataract through the Humboldt
qvalley, far below, making Chicken Soup
spring seem rather Insignificant; but In re-
ality this wonderful little body of water has
been sounded to the depth of 1000 feet, while
the turbulent waters below are shallow in
comparison.
The south side Of the pool is deepest, and
seems to be the source from which the pe-
culiar solution flows, for the bubbling, boil
ing water at that point will cook goose egg
In Two minutes. 1t Is a common sight to see
tourists vending their way with bags of
crackers and cups in their hands.
. The neighboring roadbed is ballasted on ons
side of what appears to be a covering of
crushed lava of unmistakable volcanic origin.
for lying in close proximity are evidences of
volcanic eruptions.
The pool has been dragged many times.
but nothing has ever been taken from its
depths but cedar. Cedar trees once abounded
in this locality, and the bark, which bears
marks of considerable age was probably
thrown in by the Indians while building their
RATS and canoes
This wonderful freak lying about three and
one-half miles from the rough little mining
town OF Elko, is never visited by the inhab-
itants unless they are passing that way and
feel hungry. The miners and the rest Of the
matter-of-fact population have long ceased
to wonder at natures partiality, and accept
the existence of this boiling soup cauldron
as convenient fact. Whether 1t is due to
the mineral properties of the soil or to the
close proximity Of lava beds, or is itself
volcano in mild state of aqueous erup-
tion, know not. But there it is, and any
one who will go to Elko can easily find the
spring and sample the soup to corroborate my
statements.-Frances Fox in Baltimore Her

tensively, still, without them, the

lulu, who have stated it as their
intention to take part in the con,
test. The committee of the Ha
waiian Tennis Association who
have had the matter of arrange
ments in their hands have spared
no pains to make the first of the
tournaments held under the aus
pieces of the association a worthy
one in every way. The respect
i've players will have nothing at
all to say in the matter of arrange
ments for playing, thus Obviating
all complications. Those who in
tend to enter should not forget
that the entries for all events will
close on Thursday, April 3Oth, at
4 p. M, with Edwin A. Jones, at
the office of the Hawaiian Safe
Deposit and Investment Co. Any

ter the close of same.

THAT MAUI AFFAIR.

OOTTGSISu oldLSIlSHI Oh DlIISTSnSS
Between. Two Physicians.
In the Advertiser of April 18th
there appeared an article con
corning disagreement between
Drs. Raymond and Armitage of
Maui. From subsequent Informal
ton this paper is notified that the
following is the correct statement
of the affair:
On Friday. April 10th, DR.. Ray
mOnd and Mr.. Hugh Howell. by
invitation of Mrs. Heapy, through
Mrs. L. A. Andrews, made a social
call on Mrs. Heapy, who was then
in the Waikiki Hospital, under
charge of DIR. Armitage. While
the two gentlemen were CON
versing with Mrs. Heapy, DR.. Ar,
mitage entered the room and
brusquely requested them to
leave him alone with his patient.
His manner was so pointed that
DIR. Raymond, as he was leaving
the room, said to him, 81 would
like to speak to you when you are
through with your patient" To
this DR.. Armitage replied, "What
does he mean? 1 do not speak to
the fellow"
Shortly afterward, when DR..
Armitage came out of the room.
DIR. Raymond renewed his re-
quest. Upon receiving the an
sWer from DR.. Armitage that he
had nothing to say to him, and
that he was an impudent fellow,
he said he would brand DR.. Ar.
mitage as a contemplate coward
If he would not come into anOth- |
er room and speak to him like a |
man. DR.. Armitage then asked |
DR.. Raymond if he wanted "a
thrashing.
That same evening, shortly be-
fore 9 o'clock, DR.. Armitage ap-
peared before Mr.. F. W. Carriers
house, at which DR.. Raymond was
then residing. DR.. Raymond was
standing on the inside of the fence
and Mr.. Carter on the outside. Be
tween DR.. Raymond and DR.. Ar
mitage a few words passed, in
which DR.. Armitage threatened to
thrash DR.. Raymond if he. would
not apologize for his conduct,
while DR.. Raymond proposed they
settle the matter AMIGA
bly,. DR.. Armitage would not lis .
ten to this, however, and again
threatened to thrash DR.. Ray
mOnd if he would not apologize.
Mr.. Carter then tried to concili-
ate the parties, but DIR. Armitage
insisted upon his threat. Draw
ing himself up and looking DR..
squarely in the face he
asked him for the last time.if he ;
would apologize or take thrash
ing, accompanying the threat with
4 movement of his hand to his hip
pocket, as if to take out a whip.
At that very moment DIR. Ray {
nOnd struck him, and again as he
scrambled to his feet and attempt )
I'd to strike at him, delivering
both blows while facing his assail- c
INT. e
Shortly afterward, while DIR. II
Raymond was standing on the V
of Mr. Carriers house Il
about the affair, some a
ne was heard approaching. DR.. S
Raymond, mistaking it in the t
lark for Mr.. Mckay, approached "
0 meet him, when DR.. Armitage
truck at him with his fist. DIR.
raymond lodged the blow and re-
urned it, knocking DR.. Armitage
nto the flower beds.
Mr.. Carter lead DR.. Armitage
way and put him under bond to b
eep the peace. a

BEET SUGAR.

The numerous experiments made
by private citizens extending over
a long series of years, followed by
the more exhaustive careful numar-
our tests of the experimental sta
ton at the Washington Agricul-
tural college at Pullman have dem
onstrated beyond all question that
the conditions requisite for the pro-
duction of beet sugar are present in
this state. The beets grOTn are
the richest in the world, that the
soil has proven suitable for the pro-
duction of these economically In
large quantity is demonstrated; the
question of cheap fuel is assured;
lime is abundant-in a word, all
the conditions are present except
the capital aud enterprise Of our
citizens to inaugurate this great
work.
The republican party has inaug-
urated a system of protection on
sugar by bounties, which, if there
had not been a change in the policy
of the government, would doubtless
have before this more than doubled
the domestic output and soon
placed this nation independent of
all nations for our supply of sugar
would not have asked England
first.
This state, ere this, would have
had this industry firmly estab-
lished in our midst had there not
been a change and doubtless soon
will have, upon the election of Nc
Kinley and inauguration Of pro-
lection.
More than hundred million
dollars goes abroad annually to pay
for our sugar.-Tacoma Ledger.
