SEEKS TO DEPRIVE WIFE AND
CHILD OF HOUSEHOLD GOODS.
Devauschelle Deeds Goods to His
Brother Who Brings Suit to Take
Them From Deserted Wife.

Ramona DevausChelle is said by the
police to be the meanest and most con-
temptible man with whom they have
had to deal in many months. Several
days ago he was arrested on complaint
of bis wife and charged with desertion.
The fellow was before Judge Wilcox
and there made a little speech in court
in which he said that he wanted to re-
turn to his wife and would support and
care for her and their child. Upon these
protestations the Court permitted him
to go free.
Instead of acting fairly toward his
wife Devauschelle appears from devel-
opments this morning, to have been
guilty of an outrageous act toward her.
This morning Deputy Sheriff Chilling
worth was waited upon by Eugene X.
Devauschelle a brother of Ramona and
told that Eugene had instituted suit
against Mrs. Devauschelle. After Ra-
mond was allowed to go free, he deed
ed to Eugene all of his household goods
for the consideration of love and 81.
Ramona then proceeded to leave for
remote parts, after passing the buck to
! his brother who was relied upon to
| eject the poor, deserted wife and infant
| child. Ramona took the steamer for
Lahaina. 1t is said by the police that
among the passengers was some other
| person in whom DeVauSchelle was in
terested considerably.
In his suit Eugene Devauschelle de.
mands possession of the bedstead, mat
tress, tables, chairs and pillows, sheets
and every article of household use
which Mrs. Devauschelle possesses. L
the woman losses the suit it will result
in her being driven houseless, and al
most penniless into the street. Tn,
proceedings are so apparently an at
tempt to oust the woman that the po
lice are indignant over the suit. Mr.
Chillingworth said that he would ad
vance the money to the woman to hir
an attorney to defend her case for /
was an outrage to seek to disposses
her of the goods which she and he
child are using.

NATIVES NOT PRIVILEGED
HOSPITAL Is NOT REQUIRED To
TREAT NATIVES FREE.
Custom Alone and Not Charter Re-
quirement makes Queens Hospital a
Free Hospital to Hawaiians.

Contrary to general belief the Queens
Hospital is not obliged by It's charter to
receive and treat Hawaiians free.
This fact was brought out at the
quarterly meeting of the Queens Hos
pital trustees this morning The loss
of the revenue formerly coming to the
hospital through the custom house, the
loss of property and income through
the decision in the Rookie case, and the
possibility of the withdrawal of the
government subsidy have made it very
necessary for the trustees to look close
ly into the questions of income and ex-
penditure of the hospital.
The custom of treating Hawaiian pa
tients free has prevailed so long that
many had come to think 1t was a cOndi-
ton of the foundation of the hospital,
and as such an obstacle in the way of
securing government aid, as under new
conditions it would be giving one class
of citizens special privileges to which
the territory could not be a party by
granting an appropriation. But look
ing up of the records has shown that
here is nothing in the charter or by
laws giving free treatment to Hawai-
ians. 1t is simply matter of custom.
This being so. this obstacle to govern
ment aid is removed.
The decision in the Rookie case has
| deprived the hospital of property yield
! ing an income of about $4,000 a year.
But as much of this property was under
! long leases which are now expiring, the
expected or prospective income is re-
| duced much more than this. For the
property will now yield much greater
/ revenue than formerly.
! The trustees have written to Mr..
! Rookie, in England, setting out the
| whole situation of the hospital, it's
foundation and its work. 1t is hoped
that response will be received that
will brighten the prospect of the hos
| pital.
| The quarterly reports of the hospital
were made and approved. The follow
ing were appointed the visiting commit
tee for the quarter, A. S. Cleghorn, A.

NOT REPRESENTED.
Mix-up of Parties in the Election
Boards.

Despite the efforts of Wray Taylor to
have all three parties represented on
the election boards there is considerable
tangle in the matter. In very few pre-

In some are two Republicans and one
Democrat; two Independents and one

THE HAWAIIAN STAMPS.
What Country Postmasters Think of
the Treatment Received.

The postmasters of the territory, who
in good faith turned over to the United
States Post Office department the sup
plies of Hawaiian stamps, and stamped
envelopes they had on hand, paid for by
themselves, and are now told that they
cannot be reimbursed, are very indig-
nant over the matter.
One of them writing to The Star,
says:
"The point of responsibility whether
of the United States or the Hawaiian
government should have been determin-
| ed before the stamps were destroyed
and the amounts either reimbursed oI
| the stamps returned. The United
States Postal authorities having receiv-
ed and destroyed the property of the
postmasters are by that act responsible
! for the value of them.
"The United States Post Office hav'
| ing gone so far, let it keep faith witt
their postmasters and themselves looi
to the Hawaiian government for re-
| endorsement.
"I claim that under the circum
stances, each postmaster who so deliv
cred up his stock of stamps on hanC
| and who has not been reimbursed fo
the value of them is fully entitled t
deduct said value from any funds IN
may have on hand belonging to tn
United States Post Ottice.'

of a Woman.

]. Anderson was before Judge Wilcox
this morning to answer to charge OF
being a vagrant. Anderson fought hard
against conviction. He even went so
far as to tell the story of his past life.
This evidently produced an unfaVorable
impression, Anderson said he had been
a. seafaridg man for twelve years. Dur
ing all of that time he had never swal-
lowed a drop of liquor when he was
wrecked on desert islands. During his
sojourn in Honolulu he had stayed out
late al nights looking for work even
though work was tired and had gone
to bed. He admitted he had shipped on
five different vessels and deserted from
every one but the reason for this was
that he liked Honolulu very much and
he was anxious to work ashore.
well Anderson" remarked the judge
"as you seem to be so anxious to work
ashore we will give you the chance-one
month at hard labor"
Thank you judge" replied Anderson
with nautical sarcasm.

SHOE FACTORY FOR HONOLULU
Efforts Going on to Create Such an
Industry.

The meeting called at the Chamber of
Commerce this morning for the pur-
pose of organizing the Hawaiian Shoe
& Leather Company was not largely at
tended and little was attempted. The
prospects for the organization of the
company are said to be good, and the
effort to organize it will be carried en-
by other means than public meetings.
The promoters claim that profitable
industry in this line can be started and
carried on here, which will give employ
ment to a considerable number of men
and women. 1t will give to what is now
raw material of the Islands the added
value of manufactured product,
Eventually it will develop other indus

MIR. CARTER STAYS

The anti-Carter faction in the Inde-

attempt to Gust the Democratic candi-
date for the senate from it's ticket.
This faction, ii is understood, is COM
posed of the rabid Wilcox men. Their
objection to Carter was that he advised
the natives to support Prince David
The other faction warned them, how
ever, that If Carter was dropped the
party would split in two pieces and
that Wilcox would be showed so deeI
that he would never arise again.
The objection to Macfarlane was

WATER IN THE WAY

Naone, at Honolulu plantation, had up
to this afternoon proved unsuccessful
and for a rather peculiar reason. Pumps
have been working steadily from the
top of the pit but the water keeps at
about the same level. In other words,
it does not seem to go down any. The
supposition is that the cap on one of the
wells was broken at the time of the
deluge and the water is coming up
through it. If this is a fact the planta-
ton has quite a job ahead and may
have to send to town for a diver to re-
pair the well.
