Reply Of Chief Justice to
Inquiring Attorney.
Practice and Conditions-Dema nd
and Supply-A Statement That
Is Clear.

J. F. Morgan will sell at public auc-
ton today at noon at the premises, the
two-story wooden building located at
the corner of Beretania and Miller
streets.
Below is given a letter which the
Chief Justice has mailed to an inquir-
er on the Mainland. 1t will serve ex-
cellently as reply to all asking about
the opportunities in the law here:
Honolulu, H. l., Dec. Z, 1898.
Dear Sir:-Your letter of the oath
ult. inQuiring as to prospects for prac-
ticing law in the Hawaiian Islands is
received. In reply, l would say that
our islands comprise old and well set
tied communities. Our Supreme Court
dates from 1852 and we have almost
completed the eleventh volume of its
reports. We are not a Code State"
and the common law is in force as
modified by our decisions, statutes and
usages. We have something of a code,
but it does not pretend to be inclusive.
Our population is little over 100,-
900, but the large majority of the pop
ulation is not in circumstances to en-
pIoy lawyers. Honolulu contains some
what over 10000 persons.
To supply the legal needs OF the
Islands we have about sixty lawyers in
and ready for active practice, twenty
nine of whom have been admitted dur
ing the year 1898 and mostly since
Annexation was agitated. Most OF
the legal business is done in Honolulu,
the capital of the Islands. About fifteen
white lawyers reside in Hilo, Island of
Hawaii, and at Wailuku, Island of
Maui, Honolulu being on the Island OF
Oahu.
The old, capable and we'll established
lawyers and law firms here are doing
we'll The new incumbentS and the
second grades Of lawyers have to strug-
gle for business as in all parts of the
United States, and some do not get
enough to live on.
I never give advice to lawyers either
to come here or stay at home, except
to say that if a lawyer is doing fairly
we'll at home he had better stay there.
Still if one feels he can get business
in spite of competition by capable law
yers with we'll established connections,
why, this part of the world is open to
him.
If any new men should come here
they should bring their certificates Of
a certificate of good stand
ing at the bar of the last court of
record where they practiced, and suffi-
cient certificates of good moral char
acter. Very respectfully yours,
A. F. JUDD.

tleboro desperately. But I'll do any
thing under heaven to stop all this
nonsense" and the badgered man
brought forward the valise and felt for
his keys.
The second Mrs. Brattleboro leaned
on Mary Anne and sobbed Historically
IF l were to die, Mary Anne, do you
think he would take me to "a cream
cry and burn me too, and go on making
a collection of wives as if we We're pos
tage stamps?'
Paul wrenched open the valise and
poured the contents on the floor.
Now what is that, Paul Brattle-
boro?"
Yes what is it. you miserable mani"
Don't utter an untruth over your
dead wife"
mo wonder you never told poor Kit
tie where she was buried" exclaimed
the second Mrs. Brattleboro and Mary
Anne Plunkett by turns.
My first wife, Leonora Saltonstall
Brattleboro, died at Nice, and there she
lies buried. / can show you the title
deed to her grave. Kittie, ! am sure
told you all about it,"
Then whose are the ashes in that
urn?" demanded the two women in Il
breath.
Ashes! s!'-Urn!'-Great Scott. why
this is a bottle of French toeth-powder
1 bought while ! was in Boston"
Then Paul Brattleboro placed the OBJ
ject in question with his razor and
atrop in the little ebony box on the
wall.
At this astounding announcement
Mary Anne gave Kittie an awful look,
then thrust her gasping cousin from
her shoulder without waiting to see II
Paul caught her, and left the room.
But Paul, what made you rusn
| back so frantically for the valse?" ask
ed kittie, when quiet was restored and
explanations We're in order.
Il had left it on the car. The train
sometimes stops twenty minutes. |
wished to recover the valisc before it
left, or telegraph to the next station"
And YOU are sure you love me as
well as YOU did Leonora"?
Far BETTER
'Then why do you speak Of her so
often?"
TO please you. Kittie. You used to
say you loved me because / was 50
faithful to Leonoras memory"
Il know i did, but it's different now"
The second Mrs. Brattleboro sighed
upon her husbands shoulder in the full
ness Of content. Then she raised her
head.
Paul, we will never have a secret
from each other again."
Never"
Then, perhaps L ought to tell you
that / have made you some of the
most delicious pumpkin pies that ever
were. And now that you know every
thing that do, I'll call Mary Anne.
Poor old thing! / know she feels badly
at making such a fool of herself. And
you, Paul, bring Il pitcher of cider from
the cellar and kiss me before you go,
for tomorrow will be the thankfulest
Thanksgiving of all my life"

DEATH OF AN OLD RESIDENT.
Michael Scott Passed Away Peace
fully Into Immortality.

Last night the final sumons came
TO Anthony Scott, who was probably
the oldest of the foreign born resi-
dents of the West Side. Mr.. Scott was
born in the parish of Rathlacken, coun-
~ Mayo, Ireland. seventy years ago,
and emigrated to this country I'm the
year OF 1871, coming to Carbondale in
the month of July in that year and
has been a resident of this city for fif-
ty-seven years. Mr.. Scott was well
known to the residents of this city
He was a man of thrift and knew
how to make the best of the opportun-
tiles offered, and was therefore able
to pass the last years of his life in
comfort. He was in every sense a
man who loved his home and his fam
lily. and was never so happy as when
he was with his children. Three sons,
Thomas Scott, eX-city treasurer; and
Patrick and John, and one daughter,
Miss Mary Scott, survive him.
The funeral will take place from
his late residence on Scott street Fri
day afternoon at half past three
o'clock.
