Beastly Brutality.

Two Chinese were charged in the
Police Court this morning with
cruelty to animals. The men had
plucked the feathers OF three live
turkeys to have them ready" for
sale when ordered and thereby
saving an ice bill. One OF the poor
birds died and the other two we're
produced in their horrible condition
in the court crying pitifully. The
men were apparently surprised that
such "small matter" should cause
them to get into trouble and they
were still more surprised when the
magistrate sentenced each to pay a
fine of $40 and go to jail for 10 days.
The judge expressed his opinion in
regard to the wanton brutality, or
dered the turkeys killed and put on
ice, sin case an appeal should be
taken, to the Circuit Cont and the
Deputy Attorney General wish to
enter nolle pros. or see the evid-
ence."

TWO PIANOS
In the Lyric Orchestra.

While it is common thing in the
States during grand opera season to
have two pianos in the orchestra such
an innovation has never before
made its appearance in Honolulu.
The Boston Lyric will have the
honor of being the first in the field.
1t is a proof that no effort or OK.
pense will be spared in making the
opera season perfect in every detail.
The pianos will be played by M.
HazeliRg, the grand opera cou,
ductor, aud w. F. Grove, the comic
opera leader. Mr.. Paul Egry, will
play first violin; Mr. Berger, second
violin, and his men will play flute,
cello, viola, Double Bass, trombone,
cornet, clarionette. This will mean
grand orchestra work.
The curtain will rise promptly at
8 o'clock, no deviation will be made
from this rule under any circum-
stances. Excursion will be run on
the o. n. & l. Co. on Tuesday, Oct.
3, and every subsequent Saturday
night during the opera season.

The passengers on the Claudine
were highly indignant because the
steamer went to the cattle pen prior
to landing them. The steamer was
far beyond its regular sailing hours
and yet the passengers had to wait
or go ashore in boats paying an ex-

the steamer had gone to the wharf
upon arrival the crew would have
left her and the cattle to their fate.
Passengers are evidently second

A SUB CANNOT EN-
FORCE A CLAIM AGAINST a
RAILROAD COMPANY FOR EN-
IRA WORK DONE BY HIM UN-
DER HIS CONTRACT WITH THE
GENERAL CONTRACTOR FOR
THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE
ROAD.
This was a suit in chancery. brought
by Harris. to recover from the defend
ant company for extra work done by
him in the construction of the railroad
of the defendant. a contract had been
made with u general contractors TO
build and equip a street railway, and
the general contractors made a con-
tract with Harris as Sub-contractor to
do the work. The claim set up was
FOR extra work done by Harris under
this contract made by him with the
general contractors. The lower court
gave n decree in favor of Harris, and
the company appealed.
The court says:
1t clearly. appears that there was no
contractual relation. either express or
implied, between Harris and the rail-
way company. His contract was with
Guy G. Hotchkiss. Field 6; Co. and to
them alone can he look for settlement
of what may be due under his contract

creditor of the railway company, and
therefore had no standing in court to
