A popularity of Hawaiian law is that
descent is through the maternal side,
instead of by the father. If IA member
of any of the families of the high chief
marries a woma of the people the
children, while perfectly legitimate, do
not inherit the lands or honors OF the
father, while if a man not of noble
blood marries n woman connected
with the noblest families her children
by him are nobly born. Succession
to the throne is first by descent. The
reigning sovereign possessing no heir
has the right to adopt and name an
heir to the throne. In the absence of
descent or nomination, election by the
Legislative Assembly, with the proviso
that the choice must be from the fam
lilies of the highest chiefs, provides for
the succession.
Princess Kaiulani is the niece of
Queen Liliuokalana, and was named
heir-apparent on March 8. 1891, the
fact being officially communicated to
this Government and acknowledged by
the United States. But the young Prin-
cess was not at this date in Honolulu,
for on May 10, 1889, or in her 14th
year, under the charge of Mrs. 7. r.
Walker, wife of the British Consul, she
had left that port for England. There
she has been ever since with the fam
lily of Mr.. Davies, and with him Prin-
cess Kaliulani visited this country to
protest against the Harrison treaty of
annexation.

Sweden's most popular king, GustavN
Adolphus, whose direct descendant
Gustavus w., was depOsed in 1909 BE-
cause he embroiled the nation in tw
many foreign wars. Miss White thinks
that she could give a better sample Of
ruling than her unfortunate ancestor.
Every Swede knows that King Oscar

back was not wen a noble one, but i
Oscar is handicapped in the line Of an

The responsible office of chairman or
president of Il legislative body is one
that generally carries with it both
powers and privileges, says the Lon
don Sunday Magazine. There are,
however, exceptions to the rule. In the
British House of Lords it is not the
lord chancellor but the whole house
that is addressed as "My lords"
The speaker is the sole judge of all
questions of order in the House of
Commons. In the House of Lords such
matters, when there is a conflict of
opinion, are decided by the whole
house and not by the lord chancellor.
If several members of the House of
Commons rise simultaneously to take
part in a debate the speaker decides
who shall speak first, but if two or
more peers rise together in the House
of Lords the lord chancellor cannot de-
eide who shall first be heard. 1t is the
voice of the house that determines.
Happily etiquette is so strong in the
gilded chamber that it rarely happens
when the house by cries expresses it's
desire to hear one of the %contending
peers that the others do not give way.
But some years ago there was a nota-
BILE scene over the question whether n
peer who had risen from the front
tory bench should be heard in prefer
ence to a peer who had risen from the
: front liberal bench
Neither lord would give way, and to
bring the curious situation to an end
Earl Granville moved that the liberal
peer be heard. The house divided on
the question and decided by a big ma
1ority that the tory peer should be
heard first.
1t is difficult for the average man 70
understand why the lord chancellor
should not be able to exercise author
ity which is vested in the chairman of
every public meeting, but there is n
subtle constitutional point involved in
this apparently ridiculous procedure.
All peers are equal rs legislators in
the House of Lords. No one of them
can be vested with authority over the
Others. Therefore, when a point of or.
der is involved it is the whole house
and no the lord chancellor that must
decide the issue.
