there is not much doubt about the health of
the clerks. It is said that the hospital
generally has tenants enough to take up
the attention OF -wo nurses. The officials
Of the Census Bureau are said to ascriha
this condition of things to the improper

to know what there is about the diet of
census clerk which differs from the food
consumed by the ordinary American. Some
of the clerks also think it would be prof
liable to learn what kind of diet is best
suited to the peculiar place in which they
are obliged to work. They are not fond
of being Frustrated by the heat. and If

COURT SIGNS JUDGMENT
DAMAGE SUIT FOR BREACH OF
CONTRACT
Charles Bartlett Gets 5000 for Being
charged-Downing Murder Case
Still On-Hogan Minstrels.

Judge Davis today signed judgment
against the Hawaiian Carriage and
Manufacturing Company for $780, in
favor Of Charles j. Bartlett, who had
brought suit for special assumpsit i'm
the sum of $1,000 for breach of con-
tract A jury last week found in favor
of the plaintiff for the sum named in
the judgment
The Charles Downing murder case is
still on today in Judge Stanley's court.
There have thus far been a number OF
witnesses, all of whom were present at
the luau when the cutting took place.
and IL is understood that there will be
quite a few more on the side of the
prosecution. The, case will probably be
on for two or three days to come.
In the matter of the suit of DR.. James
Wight VS.. Eliza Y. Mackenzie, bill to
cancel lease and for injunction, A. 7.
Atkinson and A. S. Humphreys have
filed affidavits to the effect that G.. p.
Tulloch and ]. H. Mackenzie are en-
gagged upon the federal census and will
not be able to attend the hearing until
after June. They are material Wit
nesses. The affidavits were filed on ac-
count of petition for continuance. The
case is an unusual one, DR.. Wight
claiming that Mrs. Mackenzie, his fav-
orite daughter, took advantage of his
old age and induced him, against his
will, to sign the lease. The lease, it
appears from Wight's bill, contains
more lands and rights than had been
agreed on.
Judge Stanley has ordered Judge Da-
vid Dayton to turn over to Henry
Holmes the amount in his hands due

Holmes is attorney in fact for the heirs

sists of $2S2 in cash.

A Missionary Who Has Spent Ten
Years in the Empire Visits Honolulu
War Inevitable.

Among the through passengers on the
HongkOng Maru, bound for San Fran
cisco, is the Rev. w. l.. Curtis, a mis-
sionary VINO has spent the past ten
years in Japan, and who brought with
him to Honolulu young Japanese lady
named Kawajira, who is to stay here
and help Miss Castle in the local work
among Japanese. Miss Kawajira is a
converted Japanese who has been help
ing the missionaries to teach in Chris
tian schools in her native country. Dur
ing the voyage she became quite i'll and
she was put ashore this morning and
taken to a hospital for treatment. The
young teacher is threatened with ty-
phoid fever. The Rev. Mr.. Curtis has
with him d japanese young man. who
is going to the States to complete his
education.
The Rev. Mr.. Curtis says that the
missionary work in Japan has been Sc
riously interfered with by the recent
order from the Japanese government by
which the teaching of Christianity was
prohibited in all the schools that have
been recognized by the government
This order made it necessary that all
religious work be done in private
schools, and it closed a number of the
schools altogether. Though it is an
order that indicates hostility to Chris
tianity," said Mr.. Curtis, lit is not eX-
dClly III IdNOT OI any OlneT TellBlOn.
No other religion is given permission
to teach it's doctrines in the schools
from which we are excluded. There
are many high officials in the Japanese
government who seem to be not in favor
of any religion at all. OF course the
Buddhists have a great deal of power,
but so, also, have the Christians. There
are several Of the highest officials who
are aVowed Christians, and others who
have declared themselves not hostile to
our religion. l regard Japan as the
most promising field for work at the
present time"
The Rev. Mr.. Curtis has been at the
Doshisha school in Kyoto, a school
founded by Neesima who is said to
have been the first Japanese to receive
an American education. Neesima left
Japan at a time when it was a crime to
leave the country, getting to Boston
before the mast on a sailing vessel in
the COS. He was sent to Amherst and
later to Andover Theological Seminary,
and did much to help the progressive
movement in Japan. While in Kyoto
the Rev. Mr.. Curtis was the editor Of
the Mission News, paper published
FIVE times a year. giving accounts OF
the mission work in various parts of the
Empire. This is his first visit to Homo
lulu, where he found several old col
lege friends. He is accompanied by
Mrs. Curtis, and will return to Japan
in about a year.
Mr.. Curtis, like most people who visit
| Japan, is of the opinion that war be-
tween Japan and Russia is inevitable.
There is no immediate danger" said
he but | suppose the conflict will come
in the end. Japan will avoid 1t as long
as possible, but she wants the upper
hand in Korea"
