and already the number of
orders for this kind of work,
convinces us that there has
been pressing need for such
work in this city.
Without making the slightest

so certain that we can please

Come BEFORE a Magistrate.
In the District Court yesterday
afternoon Judge Wilcox was hear
ing the case Of Fujiwara VS.. Noio,
for desertion, in which a peculiar
state of affairs was developed.
More than seven years ago
Fuiiwara was farmer in Japan
and married Noio, the girl of his
choice, and in due course of time
son and heir was born. After
couple of years Fujiwara
thought he had had enough OF
welded happiness, and made up
his mind to come to the promised
land of Hawaii. He told his wife
of his decision to separate from
her and in accordance with the
law in Japan went before pro
per officer and signed a contract
of separation before witnesses
and told his wife to go home to
her folks, which she did.
This was five years ago, but
| about ten days since Fujiwara
unexpectedly met his former wife
on the street, and he asserts that
all his former love for her return.
ed TO his bosom or the
place where love is supposed
to reside and he determined she
should be his once more. He
traced her out Vd with a couple
of friends went after her. But
she was living with another man,
who refused to let her even see
her former husband and threat
ened to kill him on sight if he
came round the ranch any more.
Fuiiwara then had the woman
arrested for uesgytigu. On the
trial the above fucts were brought
forth together with the additional
ones that he had never written to
his wife during his stay here or
lsent hes any money and
would not have thought anything
more about her IF ne had not seen
| her ON the street in Honolulu.
Judge Wilcox decided that the
japanese divorce was go5~und
that if it was not the woman was
certainly not guilty of deserving
her husband. The complaining
witness differs with the Judge on
his construction of the law and
the evidence and will appeal
to the higher court. He is $3.50
out of pocket for costs as far as he
has got.

Now that the Fourth of July

again, we desire to call the
attention of the residents of

matters of interest.

more particularly in the Elgin,

The MEETING PLACE.

IN beautiful valley we all have seen.

green,
where the birds are singing their musical
throughout the beautiful sun-lit days.
FROM crystal spring, meath red rose

In the heart of a forest, we have all passed
through,
"here the branches above US hide sun
shine and blue,
"here the shadows are black. and the
wind makes moan
where there are paths that we ever must
tread alone,
FLOWS river so dark and deep and wide:

meet,
And here we must dwell with friend and
foe, -N

Marking Linen.

Right in line with the embroidered
linens, now so fashionable for decora-
tive purposes, is the marking of ones
linen, both for personal and domestic
use. Many of our mothers numbered
these articles with indelible ink, and
when an article became too much worn
to be used, it was promptly replaced by
one of the same number. This fashion
is once more in favor, but the marking
is now done with the needle. The fa-
vorite working material is Asiatic flo.
Only one strand is used, and the work
is done solidly. OF course besides the
numbering, most of the nice linens are
marked with the initial or monogram.
In many of the larger shops they stamp
free of charge all linens purchased
there. Linen may easily be marked at
home by the use of carbon paper. 1t is
still popular fad to mark mems hand
kerchiefs with a facsimile of their anto-
graph.-Philadelph Press.

An Ancient Family.

The mikado is the religious head of
the Japanese as well as their ruler. His
place is hereditary, and it has been
filled by members of his family for
more than $500 years. His is incom-
parably the most ancient lineage
known. The mikado is the ICED of the
line. The founder of it, whose hope of
posterity in his widest dreams could
not have equaled the result, was con-
temporary with Nebuchadnezzar, 660

her valise, which her maid had already
put into the cab.

night. How near came being robbed

thoroughly angry. so much more

Before purchasing her ticket she in

for an empty table, when suddenly
she dropped the valise and almost
screamed aloud-wasn't that her hus-
band, "her" Gus sitting there in COR
her and snoring loud enough to make
everybody in the room smile at his
nasal powers? He looked tired and
worn and his garments appeared damp.
How did he get here and why was he in
such dilapidated condition? She
stood for moment undecided and un-
able to take her eyes off his drawn,
worn out features.
Suddenly the sleeper opened his eyes,
Whatever the outcome she must avoid
a scene in public room. Anything
but that! The walters had more than
once looked wonderingly at the man
who had drunk three cups of coffee and
then fallen sound asleep hours ago.
Annie tried to appear quite uncon-
cerned, and took seat beside her hus-
band. Somehow her anger had sud-
denly vanished.
"Oh, darling. what brought mel
mean rather what brought you
here?" he asked, astonished at the un-
expected appearance of his wife,
dressed for a journey.
"Never mind, dear. Don't bother
about that now," she whispered.
Come, let us ride home, where | will
explain all.'
Gus acquiesced in silence. His feet
felt heavy and hardly able to carry his
weight. He was sick. All he could
do was to drag himself to cab.
And then explanations were in order.
Annie had no reason to doubt her hus-
bands narration of his adventures dur
ing the night, and what the landlady
had told her about the broken KEY
tended to corroborate and exonerate
him. But he could not make out from
her explanations what had taken her to
the railway station. He was, however,
too i'll to ask many questions.
Arrived at home she simply told the
astonished servants that "they had
changed their mind and would not go
away because her husband, who had
preceded her to the depot, had been
suddenly taken sick," and sent her
after a physician.
Gus was very sick; for two weeks he
could not leave his bed. A compli-
Gated and aggravated attack of influen-
"a was the result of his experience
during that ill-fated night.
Annie never left his bedside, and now
it was her great care and tireless de-
voted nursing that opened his eyes as
to the depth and unselfishness of her
great love for him.
AT last Gus got well, and though he
would now and then go to have So
cial game of whist, his wife never again
doubted him, even if he stayed out
later than "11."-From the German.

The Dutchmen were confined within
the narrow bounds of their island prison
which, as Kaempfer tells us, was by
his own measuring 236 PAGES long by So
PAGES broad-and shut in by high pal
isading topped with spikes. A more
monotonous existence could scarcely be
conceived In the earlier days some half
dozen ships would. arrive during the
year, but from the beginning of the
eighteenth century not more than one
or two annually-generally about Sep
tcn1ber. They had scarcely anchored
when the resilient, with his retinue, had
to set out ON his long and costly journey
to. Tokyo. to deliver the customary pres
ents to the shogun.~ The humiliations
these poor Dutchmen were compelled to
undergo are well described by ,Kaempfer
in his immortal history:
"AE soon as he (the Resident Van
Brutenheim in 1691) came into the en-
peror's presence the commissioners cried
out. 'Oranda Kapitaiu.' #~% Accord
ingly, he crawled on his hands and
knees to a place between the presents
and the emperor : Then, kneeling,
he bowed his forehead quite down to the
ground, and so crawled backward like
crab, without uttering one single
word. So mean and short thing is the
audience we have of this mighty mon
arch. T"
In the following year, 1902, the new
resident, Van Outhoorn, was subjected
to even greater indignity. I'VE were
commanded, writes Kaempfer, "to sit
upright, take OF our cloaks, stand up,
walk. turn about. sing songs, compli-
ment one another, be angry, ETC., to
jump. dance, play gambols, ETC., and
even ito kiss one another like man and
wife. which the ladies OF the court
showed particularly by their laughter
they were well pleased with. ."-Athe-
