Alleged Cruelty.

There were large number OF
people in the District Court this
morning to listen to the charge pre-
ferrsd against w. M. Cunningham
OF cruelty to animals. Mr.. Creighton
appeared for defendant and called
several experts TO prove that the
methods adopted by Mr.. Cunning
ham in breaking in horse were OF
the usual order. Marshal Brown
prosecuted aud showed that he ar
gued against his better judgment.
AS witnesses to the alleged cruelty
he called George Castle, Miss Carrie
Castle, Rev. Emerson and others
none of whom knew what they were
talking about. Mr.. Emerson in
cross examination admitted that he
used to break in horses statement
which made even the Judge smile
The Court took the matter un del
adyicement until further notice. The
horse was not called.

A Horse Killed.

There was evidently gay time at
Waikiki last evening. Residents OF
the district heard hideous noises
during the night and this morning
the results of the celebration were
found in the shape of smashed
hack, broken telephone post, and a
dying horse all ornamenting King
street near Makee Island.
The suffering animal was killed by
order of Prince David whose atten-
ton was called to the accident, and
removed by the authorities. The

EXECUTIVE CHAMBER,
HONOLULU, 81. l., April 19, 1900.

EXECUTIVE CHAMBER,
HONOLULU, 81. l., April 19, l900}
To THE Council OF STATE: The
Executive Council reports upon the
resolution referred to it by the
Council OF State, dated April 18th,
as follows:
The Executive Council agrees
with the preamble of the resolution
OF the Council of State of April 18th
and with the first paragraph Of the
resolution, which is as follows:
"That it is the sense of the Coun-
Gil OF State that the Hawaiian Gov
ernment should pay just claims for
losses caused by the action taken by
the Board of Health in connection
with the suppression OF the bubonic
plague"
1t is, however, probable, judging
from the discussions which have
taken place in the Council OF State
on the Court Of Claims matter that
the understanding of the Executive
Council as to the meaning of the
words 'just claims" differs from that
OF the majority of the Council Of
State.
Our view is that an authoritative
recognition of claim as just must
be in accordance with Hawaiian law.
a legislature has the authority TO
extend the law. Neither the Execu.
tive Council nor the Council OF
State has this discretion.
In regard to the second paragraph
OF the resolution, no reasons are set
forth why the present Commission
ers of the Court OF Claims should be
dismissed, and new court be ap.
pointed, of which majority "shall
consist OF impartial men acquainted
with the values of property and
merchandise.
The Executive Council requires
that all the members of the Court
shall be impartial. AS to their being
acquainted with values of property
there seems to be no good reason
for changing the practice and pre-
cedents of all Hawaiian courts, espe
cially as nearly all the property il
question has been destroyed, anC
estimates of losses must be made
from testimony OF witnesses and mo-
from the examination of goods ant
buildings.
II the Court OF Claims was merely
a board of appraisers to estimate th'
value Of property by inspection, i
would be desirable to have experts
on the board, but as that is not thu
case, the greatest possible usefulness
of experts is reached by using then
: as witnesses.

GAVE IN A DREAM.
Sick Mother Astonished Friends by
Anticipating News withheld.

Hot Springs, Ark, Dec 1.-THE sudden
death last week of the Misses Maggie and
Emma Lienen, popular young ladies of
this city, was a great shock to a large
circle of friends.
But a most singular sequence to their
nlisfortunes is that fact, that, although
the distressing news was withheld until
this morning from Mrs. Ldenen, mother of
the young ladies, who is at deaths door
at the Catholic Infirmary, she had been
apprised of the fact in a vision or dream
last night
The second daughter to die was buried
today, the first having been laid to rest
Saturday.
On the death of the first it was deemed
best not to apprise the mother of IL until
she got better, but after the death of the
second it was though best to break the
news to her, and a party of friends called
this morning at the tnfirmary on that mis-
sion, but, to their anazement. the mother
addressed them on the subject first and
said:
My daughters are both dead and bur
led; no need of keeping it from me-"
Mrs. Lienen then told of a strange
dream which came to her last night in
which she was appraised of the fact. When
her friends entered her room she at once
OWNED their mission and relieved them
of the unpleasant duty of telling her.
They were completely dumbfounded.
Mrs. Lienen said she saw them in her
dream lying dead and then saw the fun
eral procession to the cemetery as plainly
if she had attended in person.
No one had communicated even a hint of
the deaths to the mother.

COLONIST RATES.
Are Promptly Voted Down by Trans
continental Association.

Chicago, Dec. IA proposition which
virtually amounts to a suggestion that
Northern Pacific colonist rates be APP
piled through Missouri river gateways to
California points was submitted by tel
egraph to railroads in the Transconti-
mental association today and promptly
voted down. The proposition follows:
That second class colonist rates, west
bound only. to California points and in
termediate points affected be from Chi
cago $50; from st. Louis, New Orleans
and common points S27. so; from Missouri
river and common points $25.These rats
to apply via all points which all regular
short line second class apply. Tickets to
be sold each Tuesday from February ] ,
to April 80 inclusive Regular second
class tickets to be used. the contract
and each coupon to be Endorsed colon
ist'' and limited, not to exceed "a hours
beyond regular schedule time
These conditions are practically the
same as for tickets via St. Paul and to
the North Pacific coast.
The dates are the same. Although the
proposition was voted down, fears are
entertained that some road may take in
dependent action and force these rates
into effect. No particular object, il is
claimed is to be served by them. as
business to California at present is I'M
usually heavy-so much so that all the
roads have been compelled to put on adj
ditional trains. If the rates go into
effect vast amounts of revenue, it is
said, will be sacrificed and Colorado and
Utah rates may be permanently affected.

persons is spreading into a wide field.
A summary of some Of the recent in
impression that the injunction is destin-
ed to become the great eorrector of So
cial and domestic life. Young men have
been enjoined from making love TO
young women. Ambitious musicians
have been forbidden to cultivate their
art after midnight in the neighborhood
of petitioners with nerves. People Of ag-
riculturaI tastes in city surroundings
have been warned not to keep hens in

Chicago broaden the record An employee
Of the city asked the court to enjoin
the city authorities not to appoint him
to another job. his conviction being
strong that his present situation is just
about the right thing. This is matched
by a husband who got an injunction
against his wife to forbid her from mar
rying another man or disposing Of the
household goods until the orator could
get his own divorce The position of the
husband in this case may be thought 70
be like the dog IN the manager; but on
the whole the legal contention must be
judged correct. If this tendency goes on
the injunction will come to be looked up
on as the cure-aI for human misdeeds.
