The Italian city of Artena. situated

as the City Of Crime. Ever since the
sixteenth century every criminal who
has escaped from prison or done his

day practically every inhabitant Is a
criminal or the child of criminals.

To Write a Book.

Republican and Democratic delegates
have to-day been shaking hands on the
streets and passing pleasantries. 1t
was the first opportunity of some of
them to meet and talk over the con-
ventions, and they have made the best
of it.
This morning Committeeman Sewall
of the Republican party and Commit
teeman Cornwell of the Democratic
party met outside the First American
Bank.
Hello, there, Sewall want you u0
to dinner with me Monday evening.
There will be about ten guests, some
of them Democrats-good Democrats"
That is what Cornwell said. Sc vail
said:
"All right, Billy, I'll be there; but
don't try to convert me to 16 t1 !, for
won't be converted"
The committeeman thereupon rubbed
noses and were friends. On one side
was DR.. McGrew, explaining to a Dem
ocrat that he was under the weather
last night and could not attend the
meeting in the drill shed. Sam Parker
was telling a Boxer how President Nc
Kinley gave him flag and bag full of
"aloha oe." On the other side was G. B
Wilson telling w. l.. Hopper that his
experiences would fill a book, and that
some day he intended writing it all up
Sam Parker really has flag, and c.
b. Wilson really intends writing a
book. The Hawaiian delegation called
on Mckinley at Canton. After an in
terview of half an hour on Island mat
ters they decorated the President with
Hawaiian badges and started to go.
81 regret, gentlemen" said Mr. Nc
Kinley, that / have no decorations fol
you. | have here, however, one that
always wear and will present it to the
chairman of your delegation" With
that he unpinned a small American flae
from the lapel of his coat and pinned il
on the coat of Sam Parker. The act
was exceedingly graceful and impressed
the delegation more than anything thai
happened. Mr.. Parker intends to have
the little flag framed and filed away
on the walls of his home as one of his
most precious souvenirs.

AUGUST TERM CALENDAR
BIGGEST IN HISTORY CIRCUIT
COURT.
Judge Will Have to Handle 2S3 Causes
in Thirty Days-No Separate Juries
Mentioned on Calendar.

The August term of the Circuit Court
of this Circuit will open next Monday
morning before Judge Humphreys. b..
p. Dole, assisted by j. W. CathCart, will
represent the Government in all Grim
inal matters. AS soon as the calendar
has been called and the cases assigned
Judge Silliman will also open court
regularly and take up some of the mat
ters to be presented.
The calendar at this term is peculiar
for the reason that Hawaiian and for
eign and mixed juries are eliminated.
The criminal calendar, for instance, is
headed criminal causes" and in it
native and foreign cases are run to-
gether as on the mainland. The whole
proceeding of the court will be unusual
because the criminal cases will have to
be passed upon by the grand jury be-
fore they can be presented at all This
jury will meet Monday morning and
begin it's work Doubtless the cases on
the calendar will employ it for several
days.
The calendar is the longest in the his
tory of the First Circuit Court. All told
there are 2S3 cases. To finish them
about nine cases per day will have IL
be adjudicated.
The criminal calendar contains twen-
| ty-three cases. The most important is
probably that of Aanimoto, charged
murder in the first degree, by killine
another Japanese at Kahuku planta-
tion some weeks ago, Charles Downing
will be tried for manslaughter in the
second degree, assault with dangerous
weapon and assault and battery. He is
the man who cut up three natives il
a house on Liliha street three months
or more ago.
There are forty-eight jury waived
cases. These are all civil and of NJ
great Importance. On the straight civil
list are 1879 cases. ITO finish up are four
+ teen divorce cases.
