POINTS BY A GRAND JUROR.
The October Term of Court for
Laurens county did of it's own
free will and accord, without fear
or dread, on the 10th day of Oct.
1899, with malice aforethought,
feloniously and ignominiously ex-
plode and collapse. The lawyers
say, and the Judge concurs that
the men who have been posing as
Jurors during the year and now,
both petit and grand are no Jurors
at all, but simply common every
day citizens, without prestige or
hope,---not having the seal in
their foreheads. This, to me is a
humiliating calamity. 1 an not
to say proud, but still L possess q
streak of ambition that aspires to
honor. / have sought to CRAFTY
this ambition at times by allow
ing my name to be used as a can
date for official honors. My only
reward has been a practical re-
mindcr that"Pride goes before q
fall" At length as good luck
would have it---so it was thought
my chance to fall into the Jury
box along with others of the mob
lest and proudest of Laurens
county's yeomanry. [ fancied the
goal had been reached. Having put
on official airs and taken upon my
self an attitude of dignifed de-
pertinent, wearing q stern and
knowing countenance | drew up
my reins and hiod away to Lau-
rons, the seat Of Justice. Day af-
ter day we sat looking into mat
ters of legal suasion aud lavishlv
netting out justice. Question after
question did we fly with profes.
slonal tone of voice and twinkle
of eye as we examined the half
scared witnessee that were march
cd into Il temple Of Justice.
When we walked with stately step
into the lower Court aud set our
faces like flint toward the Judge
delivering u b ills OF Judgment
and calling through our counteu-
'&Aees foT~mOre grist: as we walked
the streets, moving and having
our being among the dignitarieS Of
the city and the bar, we felt and
expressed a sense of unreasonable
promotion. But, lack-a-dav when
the announcement Ike Il greasy
streak OF lighting from y clear
blue sky, came down with a crash
upon our nobility, that the vonlrr,
vcnere, elvine or some such in-
strumeut hadn't been properly
stamped with the wal tax and
that no Juror was legally equipped
to do Justice to his county with
out the wal tax had been paid on
his elvine, venlre or veners (These
are Latin words and, while spelled
differently, each means very much
the same thing, that is they mean,
come to me- When all these re-
Violations flashed upon us, | say,
our pride withered, our honor
evaporated and we swunk, we dis
banded in humiliation and in
shame. | knew these elvines had
to have the tariff paid on 'em, but
switched if I knew they had to
have the war tax stamp. You see
any foreign commodity or word,
such as Latin, Greek, French and
all that has to have the tariff paid
on it and now it has come to pass

THE FUNERAL PROCESSION
COMPLETED BY
MAJOR POTTER.
Body of the Princess to be Brought to
Kawaiahao Church Tonight and
Guarded by Native Company.

The remains of the late Princess
Kaiulani will be brought, just after
dark this evening, from the residence
at Ainahau, to Kawaiahao church. 1t
is desired to have the removal private,
hence the time selected.
At the church the position of the
casket will be directly in front of the
pulpit. Major Potter will be present
to arrange this matter. Company G,
the natives, will be drawn up outside,
and will officiate as a guard of honor
during the night, Saturday, Saturday
night and Sunday.
The hours the remains will lie in
state tomorrow are from 10 a. m. to 4
D. m. This will be the last regular op-
portunity friends will have to see the
face of the princess. The general plan
of the day will be the same as last
Tuesday at Ainahau.
At 2 o'clock Sunday afternoon the
funeral services will begin. Bishop
Willis will be assisted by the entire
Episcopal clergy of the city. A COM
bined choir will sing. The procession
will form on King street at 1:30 o'clock.
1t is not expected that the church will
be left before 2:30 p. m.
The procession will doubtless be the
largest ever seen in Honolulu, not eX-
cepting those Of Queen Emma and King
Kalakaua. In line will be fraternal,
political and religious societies, the
schools, the n. c. H., United States
engineers and troops from the war
ships, government and consular officials
and relatives and immediate friends OF
the bereaved family and the general
public.
The Kinau will arrive at noon to-
morrow from Hawaii and Maui with a
large number of Island people to at
tend the funeral. Others will come
from Kauai early in the afternoon.
All meetings of every character in
the city appointed for the afternoon
have been postponed, and it is safe to
say that $4,000 to $4,000 town people will
be in the procession or see It.
The pail bearers as finally selected
will be as follows:
Colonel Samuel Parker, F. A. Schae-
fer, j. o. Carter, United States Consul
General William Haywood, It. Give
Davies, Andrew Adams, S. X. Kane,
Colonel George w. Macfarlane F. NJ
Swanzy, A. B. Loebenstein, Henry f.
Cooper, ]. w. Robertson, Colonel j. H.
Boyd, j. H. Wodehouse.
This morning it was decided that the
hearse should be drawn by delegations
of Hawaiians from the various socie-
ties. There will be about one hundred
chosen for the duty, and special ropes
are being prepared for the purpose.

COLEGROVE AND COLUMBIA
INTEREST IN THE HOODOO SHIP
is INCREASED.
Supreme Court Says Russell was Not
Awarded Enough Damages and Rails
es the Amount to $2,5OO

The supreme court today filed deci-
sions in the matter of the libels against
the steamship Columbia preferred by
Russell Colegrove and Rose Berliner,
both being appeals from Judge Perry,
sitting in admiralty. In the Colegrove
matter the court summarized as fol-
lows:
The obligation resting on the mas
ter of a vessel at sea to maintain or
der and prevent commission of crime
VIII, in proper case, justify his ar
rest and detention of suspected per-
sons. But the master, if a felony has
been committed, may not punish o pas
senger therefor or one suspected of be-
ing accessory thereto. He may only
confine the same using no more harsh
ness or force in the detention than is
reasonably necessary until inVestiga-
ton by the proper authorities.
Upon the whole case we think the
damages assessed by the circuit Judge
were not sufficient. The confinement
of the libellant in the chain locker and
continuing him in irons, which evidence
shows would easily have been removed
were totally unnecessary. We fix the
damages at two thousand five hundred
dollars Kinney, Ballou & McClana-
han for libellant; Hatch and Caypless
for respondent.
In the Rose Berliner libel the appeal
VI lue llDelldll is ulSllllSSeu, winch SuS-
tains the position of Judge Perry, on
the ground that the confinement of Ii
bellant in locker with her mother
was voluntary and no ground for ac-
tion for damages against the ship.
The same court also presented de-
cision in the matter of G.. NJ. Maalo vs.
5. T. KAPPA, exceptions from Second
circuit. The point raised was the de-
cision of the judge was not in writing
| nv hn
that a decision by a circuit court, jury
waived, not beng in writing, is void
and the case is remanded back to Judge
Kalua for a decision in writing.
In the matter of j. ID. Paris VS.. An
tone Fernandez, bill for specific per-
formance, plaintiff has filed a motion
to declare defendant in default for that
he has not filed an answer within the
time filed by the court.
M. N. Sanders was today appointed
administrator of the estate of the late
Marie ]. Sanders, under $500 bonds.

HORRORS Of SAVAGE WAR
FILIPINOS MULTILATE THE DEAD
AND WOUNDED.
Startling Details Given in a Letter
Received on the China-Is Confirmed
by Returning Soldiers.

"At this writing | will not attempt
to give you a detailed account of the
horrible sights l Witnessed of poor
soldiers with their throats cut, and
some even crucifed."
Such is the startling glimpse of af-
ter the battle conditions near Manila,
Milton A. Nathan, of Company f,
First California, gives in a letter to
Philip l.. Weaver, Of Honolulu. The
letter is dated ION the field, near San
Pedro de Macarti, Luzon Island, Feb
rury IL, 1899" 1t was written after the
Filipinos had been driven back. and
the real horrors of war were seen in
the recovery and care for the wounded
and the burial of the dead,
The soldiers returning on the China
tell of similar mutiation of the woun-
ded. One incident of which a return
ing Utah light artilleryman had per-
sonal knowledge was in connection
with DR.. Harry Young of the Utah
light battery. In the fight he had got
ten considerably ahead of his battery.
His horse was shot under him, and n
was wounded. When his comrades
found his body it was horribly mutt
lated and pinned to the earth by a long
dagger run through the abdomen.

SMALLPOX ON THE CHINA.
Precautions Taken to Prevent Conta-
giOn Coming Ashore.

The steamship China arrived this
morning with the yellow flag flying. Be
tween Shanghai and Nagasaki a case
of smallpox broke out in the Chinese
steerage. At Nagasaki all the Chinese
in that steerage were put ashore and
the vessel thoroughly fumigated. The
health of all on board arriving here
was found to be good.
Under the vigilant and exacting pol
icy of the board of health here, it was
determined to take no chances on the
disease being brought ashore. The
steamer was therefore put in quaran-
tine. Nobody was allowed to go aboard
her except immunes and those incapa-
BILE of carrying cOntagiOn, in all per-
haps not more than a dozen or fifteen
persons. No one was allowed to come
ashore from the shin except her pas
sengers, officers, crew and those who
were allowed to board her.

demonstrated that a higher standard of
efficiency is obtained with a Sterling

cause of a consistent policy which has

MORE OF THEM USED.

There are probably more Singer sew
ing machines used in the United States
than of any other one make. This is
very excellent guarantee that they are
one of the very best machines. The
points of merit are strength, durabil-
ity, easy running and simple construc-
tion. Very little mechanism to get out
of order makes repair bills small.
When in need of a new sewing ma
chine examine the Singer before pur-
chasing any other make. b. Berger

POETIC RETRIBUTION.
American Deserters Found Riddled by
American Bullets,

Soldiers returning by the China say
that some time before the battle with
the Filipinos, February 5th, two corpo-
rails of the First California deserted. 1t
was not known what had become of
them though it was supposed they had
joined the insurgents. After the bat
tie their fate was discovered. The
bodies of both were found. One was
dressed in the uniform of Filipino
lieutenant, the other in that of cap
tain. They were riddled with Amerl-
can bullets. They were buried i'm a COM
mon grave with the Filipino dead.
