THE PARADISE" :"

The Paradise of the Pacific for Oc-
tober is out and proves an interesting
number as usual. The articles are of
interest, the leading one from the pen
of Guy Comfy, son of the late United
States Minister Comfy, gives good
sketch of the Islands from the point
of view of one who has lived here and
who has then gone away to mingle
in the busy journalistic work of the
city of Washington. Mr.. Comly's views
upon the Islands are based upon
sound knowledge.
The Paradise reproduces Land Ag-
ent Browns letter warning people
not to come to these Islands without
capital. No better publication could
give currency to this letter, since the
Paradise reaches people that the or
dinary newspapers do not. A paper
on the Possibilities of the Islands"
contains a great deal of information
in a very small space. Professor Ly-
ons' article upon the climate of the
Islands is exceptionally valuable, com.
ing as it does from the pen of a man
who has devoted almost life time 10
the study.
The standard of the illustrations is
well kept up. The editor is ALWAYS
trying to get off the beaten track in
the views he obtains, and has obtain.
ed an exceptionally pretty set in this
number. The magazine is well put
together and it is a credit to the city
from which it is issued.

TRYING RELEASE HRA HOT RAGE IAM TITLE BY PRESCRIPTION LEASE PORT RHRE LIQUOR QUESTION
CITY OF COLUMBIA is STILL HELD
HERE.
New Points Have Arisen in Hawaiian
Procedure Which will Require Su-
preme Court Decision.

The supreme court this morning,
Hon. Paul Neumann, sitting in place
of Justice Frear, heard argument on
the application of the attorneys for
the City of Columbia to have the
court fix the amount of the bonds re-
quired to be filed in order that the
resume her voyage.
All of the attorneys interested in
the four suits against the vessel were
present and all were given hearing
hence it was nearly 1 o'clock before
the court rose.
There are several points involved in
deciding this case which are new to
Hawaiian procedure. Judge Perry
heard a similar application last week
and refused it on the ground that as
the matter was going to the supreme
court in any event, the higher court
should decide it in the first instance.
The supreme court is now called on
to decide whether the simple filing
of notice of appeal in the two suits
thrown out by Judge Perry is suffici-
ent to continue the attachment as
against the vessel in force, and if so
what amount of bonds will have to be
given to release the vessel Again
whether it is proper for the supreme
court at this stage of the proceedings
to make such an order or to direct the
circuit judge to perform that duty.
In the Russell Colegrove case, in
which the libellant obtained a judg-
ment for $1,000, and in the case of
Harvey Johnston, the barman, who
sues for $4,000 for breach of contract,
which case has gone over for sixty
days, the statute fixes the course of
proceedings and the amount of the
bonds to be given, but in cases thrown
out by the lower court and appealed
to the higher a new feature in prac-
tice has arisen, and the supreme court
now has to decide whether a simple
notice of appeal from such decision
can hold the libels in force.
The court has taken the question
raised under advisement and deci-
sion will likely be forthcoming to-
morrow

IN JAPAN.

The Yokohama Post and Telegraph
Office published notice in the papers
to the effect that letters by the Mo-
gul for Portland, Oregon, would be
received up to 10:30 this morning. A
gentleman sent his boy to the post
office yesterday afternoon with mail
for New York, marked to go by the
Mogul, but those stupendous geniuses
behind the wicket calmly announced
that the Mogul would only receive
mail for Portland, Ore. We must
conclude that the Yokohama postof-
flee clerks believe that New York and
Portland are on two different contin-
nents. BY no other hypothesis can
We explain such astounding conduct.
The department of communications
would do well to obtain an extra ap-
preparation for the purpose of giving
its employees free lessons in geogra-
phy.-Japan Herald.

KINAU AND MAUNA LOA START
TOGETHER.
Their Owners Say They will Not Race
but Several Hundred People Think
and Hope Differently.

There will be no race" said Cap
tain Campbell of the Inter-Island COM
pany. The Mauna Loa has n new
piece of machinery in her and this is
no trip for her to race. Besides coal
costs money and racing burns up
coal"
There will be no race" said Sec
retary Rose of Wilder's Steamship
company. "There is nothing in it but
burning up a lot of expensive coal;
the Kinau could win though"
There were several hundred people
on the water front, though, who did
think there would be a race. They
hoped there would be- They were
not bothered about purely business
matters such as the price of coal and
the extra amount burned in a race
between here and Lahaina.
The Indications were that the sew
eral hundred people were right, and
Messrs. Campbell and Rose were
wrong. There was something almost
vicious in the way the steam blew
from the safety and the black smoke
rolled out of the tunnels of the two
rival steamers. The prudent counsels
of dividends are apt to be forgotten
when two steamers start at the same
time over the same stretch of water
for the same place.
The Kinau and the Mauna Loa sail
ed at the same hour this morning for
Lahaina. There have been very warm
discussions on the water front and
hot partisanship exhibited as to which
was the faster of the two. Today pre-
sented the first opportunity for max
ing the test.
The Mauna Loa was the first to
leave her wharf. There was a big
crowd there to see her off. She had
just got clear of her moorings and
ready to swing around headed for the
channel when the two whistles an
nounced that the Kinau was ready to
start. The crowd at once rushed to
the Wilder wharf and got there Just
in time to see the Mauna Loa sail past
at tull speed. The passengers on the
two steamers waved handkerchiefs al
each other as the two vessels were
close together, and shouted out chal
lenges and predictions of victory fol
their respective crafts.
Out through the channel the Mau.
ma Loa raced, quickly followed by the
kinau, which lost no time in pulling
out Then the crowd wrought up tc
real excitement by the prospect rush
ed to the mail wharf where a better
view of the two steamers could be
obtained. 1t fingered there long
watching the two racers till nothing
could be seen of them except two
masses of smoke on the horizon.
Doubtless today's trip to Lahaina
VIII be the most exciting one made
for many a day.

CONDITION OF THE LICENSE NOW
ISSUED.
Messrs. Thurston and Hatch, Who
Argued Annexation, will Argue
Another Question Here.

In the matter of licenses about
which so much controversy has been
had of late, a retail spirit license was
issued today, which, in addition TO
the usual printed matter contained the
following in red ink:
1T is further conditioned that there
shall be no screens nor other things
obstructing the view of the interior
from passers by, erected or maintain
ed at the entrance of the licensed
place"
If this is all that is asked by the
present government it will not troub-
lie many of the saloons, and will not
make the saloon more attractive than
it is already. On inquiry among the
saloon keepers they say unanimously
that they are willing to accept any
fair restrictions upon their traffic and
that they feel that Messrs. Thurston
and Hatch, who have both represent
ed the former Hawaiian government
Mt Washington. will see that their
cause is properly argued.

SUPREME COURT LAYS DOWN THE
LAW THEREON.
Title May be Acquired by Adverse,
Continuous and Notorious Holding
for the Statutory Period.

In the case of c. W. Booth, trustee
of the estate of Malie Kahai, against
G.. c, Beckley and others, his tenants,
on exceptions from the circuit court
of the First circuit, the supreme court
has decided that where a persons en-
ters land under color of title, under a
mistake as to description, and holds
adversely, continuously, openly and
notoriously for the statutory period,
a title by prescription may be ac-
quired by him.
1t is also held that latitude allowed
by the trial court on cross eNamlna-
tion of witness called by plaintiff,
the answers to which tended to prove
the defendants case, is not revers-
ible error, unless it appears that the
objecting party is prejudiced thereby.
The opinion is written by the chief
justice and is the unanimous opinion
of the court.

CHARGED WITH FORGERY.
Wrote Sam Andrews Name in the
Wrong Place.

A few days ago Carl Jensen, the
the railroad contractor, made out a
check for $20.10, payable to Sam An
drews and gave it to Joe Barros TO
give to Andrews. Andrews never got
it, but it was presented to the Bank
of Hawaii, on which it was drawn,
in due time, with Andrews endorse
ment thereon, and paid, Barros being
properly identified.
When it was discovered that the en-
dorsement on the back of the check
was a forgery, Barros was arrested
and charged with the crime. At his
preliminary examination, held this
morning before Judge Wilcox, he
was held to answer to the next term
of the circuit court on the charge of
forgery.

ROSE BERLINER.
Appeals Her Case to the Highest Tri-
bunal in the Land.

In the case of Rose Berliner, who
sued the City of Columbia for $1,000
damages for false Imprisonment and
whose case was thrown out of court
by Judge Perry an appeal has been ta-
ken by her attorney George A. Davis,
who sets up the following grounds:
That the evidence was conclusive and
establishes beyond question that the
libellant was unlawfully and improp-
erly imprisoned, insulted, assaulted
and shamefully treated by the master
of the vessel. That the evidence does
not sustain the findings of fact of the
trial court in favor of the respondent
nor is there any justification or ex-
cuse made upon the part of the mas
ter or the respondents. The libellant
therefore eXcepts to all the findings
of the court and to the decision and
decree entered.

Metal Covered Cars,

For a number of months a car cover
ed with metal instead of the usual paint
finish has been run on one of the trunk
lines between New York and Boston.
The car is coated with copper, and the
same road is experimenting with alum
mum, bronze and other metals as coat
ings instead of the paint and decora-
lions heretofore employed. 1t requires
about eight or nine hundred pounds of
copper to coat a car, and the cost will,
1t is thought, be but a tri1e more than
for those finished in the customary
way. Of course the first experiment
was costly in that there were no recog-
nized methods of doing the work, but
if the company decides to adopt such
materials as coverings for cars, i'm
proved ways and means will be devised
which will greatly reduce the cost Of
manufacture. The first car cost about
fifty dollars more for copper cover than
for paint and varnish. 1t is suggested
that stamped covers be used, and fanci-
full decorations will undoubtedly fol-
low.
