good thing it will be for her to end
her days in greater comfert than she
has ever known. On my recommends
tion I am sure she will lave you, and
I will see her tomorrow and ar
range it."
What girl you are, Edi~ lam sure
] should never have thought of such
thing. But we won't have the cere.
mony at church"
mo, it shall be at the registry. I
should like to see Mr.. ylie's face when
he hears of it, and that pretty mink.
Julia, how disappointed ade will be. I
feel sure he made up his mind that you
would marry his daughter"
Eyes, and that, no doubt, is what my
uncle wished. The two catates would
make very nice property. he thought.
But I say, Edie, suppose Martha takes
new lease of life, and goes on for 20
years"
ut is impossible! Why, the poor old
soul is more than 80 now, and DR.. Ren-
SON told me she could nat see this win
ter out. But she does net know it, and
promise me, Frank, that you will be
good to her and do all you can to pro-
long her life"
II will, Edie. faithfully"
Mr.. Wylie returned from the funeral
very we'll satisfied with himself. He felt
assured from what he knew of Franks s
character that he would never marry
anyone, but Edith Burtenshaw, and
looked upon his succeeding to the prop
erty as certainty.
Very much chagrined was he, there
fore, when he heard, two days later,
from his daughter Julia the rumor that
Frank was about to marry old Martha.
He read and reread the will, but was
bound to confess that he could do moth
ing. He saw that he had been outwitted
and sorrowfully declared to himself
that it was time he retired from prac-
tice, as it proved that he was no longer
capable Of drawing will.
And when it became generally known
land it never took very long for any
thing to be known ut Hilton) his life
was made burden by the many iron
ical congratulations he received, so
that at last he hated to leave his house.
| Meanwhile Frank and Martha had
married and took up their abode at the
Grsnge. 1t was certainly very soon
| after his uncle's death, but under the
circumstances it was not thought ad.
visable to postpone the ceremony, and
| the inhabitants Of Hilton very readily
condoned this breach of etiquette.
They were married in November, and
Martha died the following spring, la.
mensed as much as was possible by hel
husband and very much by Edith. whe
would insist upon at least one years
interval before she went through the
wedding ceremony ut the church.
This was so great an affair that the
description, with lists of presents, oc
cupied one whole page of the Hilton Oh
server, but the name of Wylie does moi
appear among those present, either al
the wedding or at the reception after
ward Short Stories.

GREEN WAS FOR LEEDY
Denies the Report That He Did Not
support Him.

To the Editor OF the Eagle: I under
stand that a few days ago, in an article
in your paper, some one claimed that 1
was not q supporter Of John W. Leedy
for governor. 1 desire 10 correst impress
sion, as 1 was for Leedy. I, perhaps, diff
fered from him on maintaining the met
ropolitan police system, and during his
administration l asked for its abolish
ment. This ne seemed 70 think would
be detrimental 10 party success, and when
he would not abolish I proceeded to make
a report Of collections and expenditures
in Wichita by the commission He was
willing to change the commission in Wich-
ita, but not abolish it in all cities that
had It.
The report was carried to the popuIist
convention (Which was on June II The
report was made to him on June s. and
the different cities concurrlng with the
idea of adjustment. a resolution was
passed requesting the governor to aboI-
ish it at once. which he did, July /
Governor Leedy was not responsible for
the metropolitan police law. I was always
against the law and in favor of home
rule, and while I was radical on this
proposition, that was no reason why
was not an admirer and supporter Of John
W. Lsedy. He is a good man and has
made a good governor. W. F. GREEN.

NOW FOR THE

ONE ON EACH CIRCUIT
Necessary Qualification Of the Mem
bers--Rules Prepared and
Published.

Now that Hawaii is an integral part .
of the United States and is governed
by the laws Of the Territories, the
method of indictment for capital and
Infamous crimes is to be changed from
that which has been hitherto the GUS
tom in the Islands. Henceforth such in
dictments will be by presentment of a
grand jury, an organization of which
little is known in the Islands. for none
the Republic.
Under the provisions OK the United
States constitution, mo person shall be
held to answer for capital or other
wise infamous crime save by present
ment or indictment of a grand jury, ex-
cept In cases arising al the land or

English language. The jury will be
composed of from thirteen to twenty
three members. and will sit, unless 9TH
erwise provided for by the Legislature
at the same time as the Circuit Judges
OF the various Circuits shall direct.
The powers of the grand jury include
the right TO call witnesses and to COM
pei them to testify under oath, just as
i'm a court. 1t will sit behind doors, and
the prosecuting attorney (the Attorney
General in the case of HawaiD will bt
