SOME NOVEL POINTS RAISED IN
TRIAL OF CASE.
Hawaii for the Time Betng, IL =
Wide-Open Country. There Being
No Local Enactments to Govern
the Sale OF Intoxicating Liquors.

HONOLULU. Aug. n, via San Francis
co. Aug. &.--The discovery has been made
that by the wording Of the territorial bill
congress has made an enactment that alb
solutely prohibits the gale of intoxicating
liquors I'm the territory OF Hawaii In
section S. of the territorial bill are the
words:
Nor shall spirisuous or Intoxicating
liquors be sold. except under such regu-
lations and restrictions as the territorial
legislature shall provide"
The territorial legislature has not met
yet and cannot meet for some months. un-
less there ia a special session: hence no
regulations at all have been made or pro-
vided, IL the old rules and restrictions
are void. the penalties Tor violating them
fall with them. and Hawaii Is for the time
being a wide open" country.

wish to, dear; how to tell you what
want you to know. There can be
nothing between us, not even a mem
ory.
Once l loved that other woman.
believed her everything that was good
and womanly, and when my confidence
in her was shaken thought that
never could trust any one again.
believed at the time that it was the
depth of my love that made me suffer
so, but now l know it was because my
trust had been betrayed. l mourned,
not for the woman herself, but the ideal
she had shattered. That is why it still
hurts me to talk of her, although she
is nothing to me now.
1t was you, dear, who brought back
my faith in human nature, and my
trust in woman; and your power to
do this is the best proof that love
you as l never loved before.
Some people say that mans first
love is his best, but they do not know.
OF course, If his first love lasts and
becomes the fuller, rounded love OF
his later life, it is the best, but each
time man loves he loves against
greater odds. His trust has more bit
ter experiences, more cynicism to bat
tie with. There can be no love thai is
worthy the name without confidence,
and the love that can bring to life a
dead faith must be the greatest love.
do not think you can realize this,
dear; you are too young. But try to
believe me, and do not send me away
from you | have said that | would
not plead with you, but do plead, dear.
You can do what no one has even been
able to do; you can make me forget
