ed that he had been told by the Mar
shall that he had reason to believe
Houghtailing was selling spirituous
liquor without a license.
Attorney Creighton called attention
to the fact that the warrant was dated
July 18th. and that with Judge Will
coX's name attached. 1t called for the
arrest OF Houghtailing forthwith" "
The actual arrest was made on the
25th
KAPPA stated that he had been told
by the Marshal in case no one was
found on the Houghtailing premises
on the 18th, he need not make the ar
rest.
Attorney Creighton called attention
to the fact that Judge Wilcox had or
dered the arrest of Houghtailing for
the 18th. What authority had the
Marshal above and over that of Judge
Wilcox, he asked?
Marshal Brown introduced the liq-
uor captured by KAPPA as the case of
the prosecution, while Attorney
Creighton moved for a discharge on
the ground OF a total failure on the
part of the prosecution to prove the
charge of liquor selling without a Ii
cense.
Marshal Brown admitted that there
was no evidence to convict defendant
and said that he had no objection to a
discharge.
Judge Wilcox then found defendant
not guilty and discharged him.
This finished Marshal Brown said
that he had another charge to prefer
against Houghtailing-tha of selling
spirituous liquor without a license, in
Honolulu, one month prior to July
18th, and more particularly on July
4th.
Attorney Creighton was willing and
anxious to proceed with the case inn
mediately, but Judge Wilcox thought it
better to continue it until Tuesday
morning.

Houghtailing up on Charge of I'm

The Houghtailing liquor case came
up for trial in the Police Court before
Judge Wilcox yesterday afternoon.
Marshal Brown appeared for the
prosecution and Attorney Creighton
for the defense.
The men who were found in Hough-
tailing's place last Sunday morning,
told a man that the beer and whisky
they got there was a present from the
owner of the house. One had gone
there on business, another to make a
friendly call and so on.
Detective KAPPA took the stand and
testified to finding beer, gin and wills

The Cost Of q Dinner.

Recently a gentleman who is fond of
ari, hmetic made up his mind that he
would find out how much a dinner
really cost. This gentleman asked how
much simple dinner that he was eat
ing cost, and he was told rs cents. He
ccr-radicted this. and then made out
the following statement about the cost
Of that dinner: The pepper he said,
cane from 10000 miles away. 1t grew
on little bush about eight feet high,
which must have had a growth of at
lea: five years. The pepper was picked
green; it had to be dried in the sum-
and this meant employing women. 1t
took Cne ship and a thousand miles of
railroad to bring the pepper to the
United States. The tea on the table
came from China, and the coffee from
South America. The Goldfish had to be
brought from Maine. Men had to be
emf loyed to catch the fish; other men
and women were employed in drying
packing, and boxing it, and it. too, had
TO make long railroad Journey The
flour of which the bread was made was
grown in Dakota: some one owned the
land. and that meant the investing of
capital; ard then he had also to pay
wages to workingmen. The flour had
to e ground, and the building of the
mill and the plant, or machinery,
mea 1t more money invested. The mill
ers had to be paid: coopers had to be
paid for making the barrels: and, of
coul sc, the wood of which the barrels
were made had to be cut and sawed
and shaped, and this meant the en-
ploying of more men. Then the flour
mad to be shipped over the rail-
road and handled again by cartmen
before it came into the house. The
salt came from the Indian Reservation
in tee northwestern part of New York
state. The canned peaches came from
California, and they tco represented
the employment of capital and labor
The spices in the cake came from the
spice Islands in the Indian Archipelago.
After the gentleman had pointed out
VIVA the dinner really cost, he asked
what on the table could be raised with
IN the limits OF the county where they
were living. The answer was: Only
lhe corn bread. the butter. and butter
milk, and it was decided that the fam
lily could not live on those alone. The
gentleman estimated that that little
dinner represented. directly or Indirect
~, the employment of five hundred mil
Hons of dollars of capital and cf five
mllllons of men. 1t would be quite a
iesson in geography for each of the
nttle folks to try discover where their
dlnncrs came from.-Outlook

w. H. Long, who has the franchise
for base ball club in this city for the
coming season, arrived. Monday after
noon, from Boston, where he has been
the past ten days. Billy says that.
on the rising OF Tuesdays sun, he is
going at the base ball question to fnd
the mind Of the people. The season is
coming on with great rapidity, and the
time is now ripe for action. Billy has
some good players In view, but, before he
does anything towards engaging them
he naturally wants to know just where
he stands. What he wants TO know Is
just how badly the people want base
ball. If the opinions recently out
spoken by some Of the faithful are any
criterion, and they generally are. there
is good strong sentiment in favor OF
having team here. What think you?
Do you propose to live the summer
through without base ball?
