June 2. 1900, to Attorney H. c. Schaet-
ger of San Francisco. in which the fol
lowing language is usedi y 81
You are informed that the de-
partment will regard certificates con-
forming to the provisions of section
of the act approved July 5. 1884, relat-
ing to the exclusion of Chinese, when
issued by the Secretary Of the Terri
tory of Hawaii, as being sufficient to
establish the right of Chinese persons
of the exempt class to enter this coun-
try. provided the statements made n
such certificates are not controverted.
Similar precautions should be adopt
ed, however with regard to such GER
| tificates as are mentioned above re-
! specting certificates of birth, in order
| that the necessity which would other
wise arise of having these certificates
returned to the collector at Honolulu
for investigation, and the consequent
delay may be obviated.
Your further request for information
as to what rights of citizenship can be
claimed, respectively, by Chinese who
are naturalized in accordance with the
laws of Hawaii prior to August II,
1898 and those who were born OF Chi
tnese parents prior to the same date. II
there is any doubt thereon in view of
the above quotations from the consti
tuition of the Republic of Hawaii; and
the act of Congress approved April 30,
1900, does not appear to require an
answer, since the reply thereto does
not involve any question of the admin
iistration of the Chinese exclusion laws
that has not already heen considered
specifically herein. Respectfully,
L. J. GAGE,
Secretary
HON. HENRY E. COOPER, Secretary
of the Territory of Hawaii, Honolulu

Treasury Department, April 20, 1901.
Sir: Bysreference from the honorable
the Secretary of the Interior, the de-
partmeut is in receipt of your letter
of Sd instant propoupding certain
queries, in view of the fact that you
have received no direct ruling from
the Secretary of the Treasury here
upon.
The points upon which you desire
Information are:
l. Whether it is proper for you TO
issue certificates of Hawaiian birth to
children born of Chinese parents in the
Hawaiian Islands prior to August Il,
1898.
2. Whether you shall continue to is
sue certificates to persons of the eX-
empt classes in conformity to the pro-
visions of section 6 of the act of July
| s. 1884.
| With regard to the first point, there
| appears to be no objection TO your con-
tinuing to issue the certificates men
toned to which it would seem that
applicants are entitled. This seems to
be conclusive from quotations contain
ed in your letter, to-wit, that from ar
ticle II, section 1, of the Constitution
of the Republic of Hawaii that
| All persons born or naturalized in the
Hawaiian Islands and subject to the
! jurisdiction of the Republic are citl-
zens thereof.
And section of the act APPROVE
April 80, 1900, which provides
That all persons who were citizens o'
the Republic of Hawaii on August IL
1898. are hereby declared to be citizens
of the United States and citizens of the
Territory of Hawaii.
AS matter of administration,
would seem to be wise, where such Ger
tificates are to be used by the holders
thereof at continental ports of Thu
country to establish their rights t.
landing, that such holders, prior to de
parture from the Territory, should
through the collector of customs, hav
an investigation and report made show
ing the truthfulness of the allegation
upon which certificates were issued
/ and that the holders are the person
actually referred to therein. Such
report, accompanied by these certifi
Gates, should be prepared in duplicate
: one copy to be mailed to the collecto
at the proposed port of entry and til
other to be presented by the applican
upon his arrival at such port
With respect to the second point,
seems unnecessary to do more than re
iiterate department letter addressed, o

Five gentlemen prominent in the bus
mess circles of a suburban town not
more than ~ miles from Worcester,
were initiated into the mysteries of
hoky poky. by a Worcester lawyer who
had been there himself They played
small game one evening this week.
1t took them exactly seven minutes
to gain an insight into the possibilli-
ties of amusement and their expert
ence was like this: The original chip
was one cent for each player. five cents
in all. The first card to show was a
deuce of hearts. Each player bet with
in one cent of the amount Of the pot
when it was his turn that he would
show a larger heart. That Is the first
man bet four cents, the second eight
cents, the third 16 cents, the fourth 80
cents and the fifth Ga cents. AS no
heart appeared there was $1.29 in the
pile The four of clubs was turned, and
one two and three bet the limit and
lost which swelled the pile to S10.25
four laid in a dollar and took out two
five bet the limit. Deuce of hearts
turned again on the third deal and
that was a cinch for the first player
He bet $40, lost, which was nothing
less than a sure thing for the next man
who showed his appreciation by chip
ping $25 and he lost. No. three took
panic, bet only s. and won. Four did
the same, but lost. Five mentally re-
viewed the percentage Of chance in his
favor, and laid half hundred, to win
or lose. The three cards he held were
all black. The pot at the end Of seveu
minutes play contained no less than
$102.5O. II was decidedly time for re-
Election, and the five gentlemen there
upon pulled out, dividing the pot on
the basis of what each man had when
he began to play They will never
play hoky poky again. This is a true
story

ment Of common sense and effective

the country, the tramp might, by force
of circumstances, enforced by his own
good thoughts, conclude that to work is
better than to loaf and lounge and steal
and disturb the orderly community in
their legitimate business. The true
principle is, of course, that right work
is good in every respect, while being n
necessity; the tramp's notion is 'avoid
work, - and it isn't wholesome, either
for himself or for the people among
whom he meanders during the summer
months. The most modern up.to- date
tramp who makes that his business all
the time is criminal minded chap bent
upon preying on society, and he don't
scruple to do anything, so he himself
escapes the clutches of the law. The
practical thing for Columbus is that he
will go around the place where he would

Bert Eberhart and VIM. Blatt got
into dispute last evening over a bill
that finally resulted in their coming to
blows. Blatt struck Eberhart a blow
during the trouble, that tioored him
and this morning he wears badly dis

revenge, if possible, through process

sworn to two complaints against Blatt,
charging him with assault and also
with conducting gambling house.

moment and instead of using his"billy"
threw a catsup bottle at Lawrence.

but for the fact that the young man
lodged just right to get the effect of the
blow on his head, which was cut quite
badly. Mr.. Conley has no excuse to Of
