A suggestion is made in one OF
our contemporaries that the next
Legislature probably will have to
pay an indemnity to those property
owners al Makiki who recently pur-
chased lands from Bruce Waring g.
Co., because the title to those lands
is clouded, We refer to the Ii
property sold by A. F. Judd, admin
istrator of the Ii estate, the sale
being approved by the Court. Since
the original sale, a question has
arisen in regard 10 the construction
of the meaning of the Ii will, and
our learned judges and lawyers are
now wrestling with the matter But
why the taxpayers ever should be
called on to indemnity the parties
who tangled their moneys up with
clouded titles rememb beriug' the
maxim "Caveat Emptor," we fail to
see. If Judd had no right to sell
the Ii lands at Makiki let Judd set
tie the matter with the purchaser.

Doctor G. 5. Cooper and Miss
Katherine MCGreW Joined
In WedloCk.
A Large Gathering of Friends az
Church and Residence

Very rarely has Honolulu witness
ed more brilliant aud popular
marriage ceremony than the one at
which last evening DR.. Charles B.
Cooper, formerly of New York, was
joined in holy wedlock with Miss
Katherine Christie McGrew, OF this
city.
The ceremony took place in St.
Andrews Cathedral, the Rev. Alex
ander Macintosh officiating. The
invited guests filed the large church
to its utmost capacity aud many OF
them were unable to find seating
accomod atoms, The Cathedral was
beautifully decorated with abund
auce of flowers, palms and ferns,
and presented a very fascinating
appearance.
At 8 o'clock the bridal party en-
tered and was greeted with the
wedding hymn "How Welcome Was
the CALL" sung by the me nbers Of
the full choir Of which the bride for
several years has been the acknowl-
edged star. Mr.. Wray Taylor pre-
sided at the organ.
The bridal procession was very
imposing, First came the ushers,
DR.. II. V. Murray, Marshal Arthur
Brown, Geo. G. Potter and j. w.
Jones. The bridesmaids came next
making very pretty picture. They
were the Misses Widdifield, Pauahi
Judd, May Damon and Emily Hal
stead. Preceded by Miss Gay, the
maid OF honor, came the bride with
her venerable father, DIR. John S.
McGrew. The bridegroom with his
best man, DR.. j. H. Raymond, met
the procession at the head OF the
nave.
The marriage ceremony was then
performed in conformity with the
Anglican Church service and was
followed by few feictious remarks
from the officiating clergyman.
After signing the register, the bridal
couple and their followers left the
church and were driven to the resi-
dence of the parents of the bride on
Hotel street.
The old McGrew residence had
put on holiday appe arance indeed,
worthy of the happy occasion. The
beautiful gardens were illuminated
in very artistic manner and the inte-
rior of the home was profusion Of
rich flowers OF the Paradise OF the
Pacific interspersed with electric
lights arranged in an effective and
picturesque fashion.
While the twain received the con-
gratulations OF their numerous
friends in the large parlor OF the
home the Ha Uaiian band was play
ing in the grounds.
In the library the numerous cost
ly and appropriate presents were
placed, each witness of the popu-
lsrity Of the two young people and
the good will of their friends in this
country.
At IL o'clock the bridal couple re-
tired and we're driven to the Oahu
Railroad depot where special train
awaited them, and swiftly carried
them to Aiea, DIR. McGrew's country
seat, where they will remain until
the 9TH OF April, when they depart
, by the Australia on prolonged
visit to their many friends in the
United States.
During his comparatively short
residence in the islands Dr. Cooper
has gained much popularity and
, many friends, All congratulate him
on having won an accomplished
sweet and beautiful girl who can
never be better described than by
the unanimous verdict Of all who
know her-~a true gentleYoman.
