to the events on Admission day.


Rubber Bill" Hatton one of the earlyl
outlaws of California, made so by the
racing board for participation in Sunday
racing last year, is now prominent
rider in the City of Mexico, where he has
been whitewashed by the controlling
body of that country. He Is competing
in the amateur class down there He
was professional in this country. AS
the new Mexican controlling board works
in conjunction with the l.. A. w., it is
improbable that Hatton will be long
allowed to ride.-The Sporting News.

stepped out on the track in front of a
bunch of riders in a race, causing seri-
oue SPILL. in which two Of the riders.
including Hatton, the Los Angeles rider,
were seriously injured, was thrown into
Jail. The police of that country arrest
man for causing such an accident.
The police also take a rider to Jail in

shows blood. They take his statement
before allowing him to go.

Close OF Il Successful Honolulu
Engagement.
The Flying Jordans closed a sue
cessful engagement of five perform
ances at the Hawaiian Opera House
last night, the receipts for the season
amounting TO 81, 1875. The perform
ance was of a character that will be
remembered by Honolulu theatre
goers. The comedy part of the show
in which Burke and Forest, Howard
and ST. Clair and the Olifans took part
is far above the average of vaudeville
performances and the gymnasts are
the best, perhaps, in the world. The
wonderful work by the Jordans was
quite enough for the admissions
charged and when they are supported
by such eminent artists as Mile Ara
gon and Mario and Mario, the Flying
Jordans' Company becomes at once
the best on the road. The company

WANTED RELEASE
Japanese Prisoner Tried
to Hang Himself.
Under Commitment From Kauai.
Moose Slipped and
Saved Him.

y Japanese under commitment from
Kauai for assault and battery and
confined in Oahu Jail tried TO effect
his release from earthly troubles by
the well known Hemp Line yesterday
morning.
When men are committed TO Jail
awaiting trial for misdemeanOr it is
customary TO give them some kind OF
employment so as to make them more
contented with the situation. This
man was assigned to the duty of
sweeping the cells and corridors after
the prison gang has gone out on the
roads. Yesterday he was noticed
walking in and out the cells as usual
and later TO walk down the corridor
and remove a. tub from under lamp
and put it in the end cell.
He had been in the cell only few
minutes when one of the guards
heard a sound like a heavy body fall
ing. Rushing to the cell he found
the tub turned over on its side and
the prisoner rubbing a bruise on his
neck. From an iron grating in the
window a rope with a moose was sus-
pended When questioned the Japa-
nese said he had fallen over the buck
ed, but everything pointed TO an at
tempt at suicide. Evidently he had
not fixed the moose properly when the
tub turned over and let him drop. His
neck was scared by the rope and his
head cut where he struck the floor.
He denied the charge that he had
tried suicide.

RUDOLPH spRECKLEs WINS.

Valuable Hawaiian Property Under
Dispute.
SAN FRANCISCO, March 23.-Ru-
dolph Spreckels won a victory in the
Supreme Court today over his parents,
Mr. and Mrs. Claus Spreckels. The APP
peal of Claus and Anna c. Spreckels
| from judgment of the lower court
by which the right 10 property worth
| over $1,000,000 was vested in their son
Rudolph. was denied.
1t will be remembered that on July
81, 1898, the Spreckels transferred this
property, including stocks and landed
estate in Hawaii, to their son Rudolph
in a deed of gift. Thereafter family
troubles ensued, and Mr.. Spreckels de-
manded the return of the property.
Rudolph refused TO comply, whereupon
suit to recover was brought by the eld-
er Spreckels, the main ground of the
action being that Mrs. Spreckels had
not consented in writing or otherwise
10 the transfer of the property to the
SON. Rudolph Spreckels demurred to
his fathers complaint, and the demur-
rer was sustained. The elder Spreck-
els thereupon appealed to the Supreme
Court
The case hinged upon an amended
statute relative to community property.
Prior to the amendment the law was
in effect that 1.-The husband has the
management and control of communi-
~ property, with the like power of de-
position, other than testamentary, as
he has of his separate estate" The
amendment consisted in adding the
following: provided however, that
he cannot make a gift of such COM
munity property. or convey the same
without valuable consideration, I'M
less the wife, in writing, consent there
to-
Rudolph Spreckels contended that
the amendment did not apply to COM
munity property acquired prior to the
nor to marriages entered
into prior TO that time. So construed,
he contended that it would deprive
the husband of a vested proprietary
right in the community property, to
wit the power to dispose thereof with
out valuable consideration: and that
1t also impaired the oD1gauOn OF
contract.
Justice Temple considered the ques-
ton OF the rights of husband and wife
in the community property. at the
date of the amendment at length. He
held that if the rights of the parties |
in the community property are the |
same. then the law is partial to the !
wife. She can easily manage that all |
her earnings and accumulations shall |
be separate property. IF the wife is liv- |
ing separate and apart from her hus- |
band. through her own fault. her earn
ings and accommodations shall be her |
property. Yet if the husband |
during the same time accumulates a
fortune. it is community property.
There is no mode in which community
property can be converted into his sep
lrate property. The husband is the
absolute owner of the community prop
arty. Therefore. it is that his liabil-
ties incurred in the management of
MS separate estate can be enforced
against the common property. while
hose of the wife cannot be-

He Prefers Having south African

LONDON, Eng, March 23.-The ex-
animation of W. Z. Schreiner, formerly
Attorney General of the Cape Colony in
the ministry of Cecil Rhodes, was con-
tinued in the Parliamentary South At
rican Committee today.
Nh Schreiner said President Kruger
always works for republican principles
and wants the flag of the South At
rican republic to be that of a free ma
ton. 1t is President Kruger's desire,
he said, that there shall always be a
close union between the Transvaal and
some great sea power and he would
like TO sea power TO be allied 10 bet
ter than England. In the event OF war
between England and the Transvaal
the Dutch in the Cape Colony, if they
knew what was best for themselves,
would be with England but blood was
thicker than water and they would
doubtless take sides with the Beers.

NEW YORK, n. Y, March 24.-The
pretty daughter of a Samoan princess,
who is now the wife of a weil-to-do
young Brooklynite, told her story to

If You
Were
About
To Go By

To go buy a Bicycle, don't do so I'M
til you first know it were wise to give
OURS the ''go by" Why we sell so
many Bicycles is no mystery, for the
names Rambler" Columbia" and
'Stearns" are known TO every one who
knows what the word Bicycle means,
and about everybody in the Islands
knows that we are the agents for these
three leading makes.
We will not say much about the
"Stearns" this time as the lot of '97
wheels which left New York on Febru-
airy 10th, did not catch the Australia"
and you do not want to hear about
wheel you cannot see, so we will tell
you about them when they get here.
But if you want pretty mount, some
thing up to date, come in and see orr
81 "Columbias" and "Ramblers;" but
come quick, as we have sold over half
of the lot just received, and we are sure
to be out of both makes before we can
get a good look at them ourselves.
We will have just forty-four CAD BIZ
cycles on the Australia" when she gets
here on March 30th, and from that on
we don't think anybody will go by TO
buy wheel because we have not got
the stock to show them.
Our "Columbias" this year, as well
as our "Ramblers," are fitted with the
weIl-known @. & ]. tires. This tire has
proved to be the best one ever used in
these Islands, and if you get the gen
uine G.. & J. tire you get what you need
for this climate and our roads. The
genuine G. & J. tire is sold by the
Rambler" Agency here, and is fitted
to wheels we order. You can get tires
that are said to be G. & ]. and look
just the same, but you won't want more
than one pair; looks don't wear, you
know.
Points of interest TO you will be the
way the spokes are fastened on the
"Columbias." the new special seat and
the handles and grips on the Ladies
"RambIers; in fact, you will find lots
to interest you, and you are welcome to
examine any wheel to your hearts con-
tent, even if you have no idea of buy
ing We have just added largely to /
our stock of sundries-such as Lamps /
Bells, Luggage Carriers, Bike Stands. /
