As a matter of fact the resigna-
ton of Ambrose Hutchinson as
acting superintendent of the
Leper Settlement has been in the
hands of the Board of Health
since October last, and it was en-
tirely unsolicited. A committee
representing a large majority of
the lepers have sent a communi-
cation to the Board, heartily en-
dorsipg the recent changes and
thanking the Board for making
them. Agent Reynolds also re
ports that there is general salts
faction over the changes and more
general conteptment at the settle
ment now than at any time since
his connection with the Board of
Health.

Signal recognition in advance
has been given by the Gar to the
Paris Exposition of 1900 by ap
pointing, as general commissary
for Russia on the occasion, Prince
Tenisheif, q millionaire in roubles,
who has recently taken up his re.
sidence in Paris after a most sue
cessful business career in st. Pc
tersburg. The Minister of Fl
nance, Nj. Witte, who suggested
the appointment, had been
anxious to find Russian of good
social position and rich enough to
represent Russia in a specially
brilliant manner. Hawaii has a
rich representative living in Paris,
aud mightdo worse than act on the
cue given by Russia. Especially
considering the difference in mum
bers and style Of visitors, respec-
lively from both countries, Colo
nal Zephaniah s. Spalding could
fill the role just as satisfactorily
for Hawaii as Prince Tenisheff
for Russia. Ifthis country is to
send en- exhibit, the natter will
have to be dealt with by the ap.
preaching Legislature.

THE KAISER CAN DO NO WRONG.
But His Words Are LibeIous When

From the London News
A very interesting libel case has just
been tried at Dirschau, and the sentence
passed proves that there are stHl judges
in Germany. Not mindful Of the old
proverb "Quod licet Jovi non livet bowl"
a Conservative deputy Of Dirschau lately
called five Liberal electors who voted for
the Polish candidate "Vaterlandlose ge-
seilen." mnpatiotic "F'atherlandless" tel
lows. The words had become famous
since the Emperor used them in a similar
connection. The five men brought an ac-
ton for libel against the deputy, who was,
however. acquitted on the ground that
the words in question had become wing
ed words and that It had not been proved
that the defendant intended 10 insult The a
plaintiffs appealed, and the court quashed
the finding Of the lower court being OF
opinion that the words complained Of inn
piled gross insult. and as an educated
man the defendant ought 20 have known Ii.
