that the defendant falsely and wilfully
and feloniously testified before the Grand
Jury that he did not know the name of a
certain corporation. The facts, as 1 I'M
derstood them, and stated most strongly
against the defendant, are, that on the
previous day he was summoned before
the Grand Jury and stated that he did
know the name of the corporation; that
when he was again summoned before the
Grand Jury he stated that he did not
know the name of the corporation. AS
1 understand the law it is necessary for
the prosecution to show. and to show
beyond all reasonable doubt, which of
the two contradictory statements is false
or was false. There were some circum-
stances (at least there appeared to be
some) from which an inference could
be drawn, as a matter of evidence, that
the second statement and not the first,
was false, If any, and therefore, on con-
sideration of the law, and of all of the
evidence laid before the Grand Jury, and
on consultation had between the Deputy
Attorney General and myself, it was felt
that the charge should be that he made
the false statement In saying he did not
know the name of a certain corporation.
The Indictment goes on to allege that he
did, in truth and in fact, know the name
of the corporation. It has since then ap-
peared, and appeared conclusively, that
there was no such corporation in exist
ence; that the only corporation was an
ina ginary one; that gentleman who
lives in Kona was asking the Legislature
to create a corporation. AS understand
the law this fact is a complete answer
to the charge. The allegation that there
was such corporation in existence and
that defendant knew its name, must fall

this matter is that the defendant got rat
tied and lost his head without intend
ing to make any false statement at all.
(The court here remarked that Mr..
Smiths plea was mot Guilty" and not
that of being rattled.) But, whether or
not that is so it seems to me, knowing
the fact that there was no such corpora
ton in existence, there is absolutely no
case against the defendant. AS Mr.. Neu-
mann has passed away, and as there is
no one to fill his place in this mat
ter, feel I ought to assume the same
responsibility which would rest upon me
in an ordinary case, and I therefore ask
that nolle prosequi be entered.
By the court.
The Attorney General has sought to
show that this matter is a matter that
affects the community at large in that
sides have been taken. That is some
thing of which this court knows nothing.
The Grand Jury. duly empannelled and
sworn, acting under and with the adj
vice of the Attorney Generals office,
found a true bill of Indictment against
this defendant. AS understand it the
Attorney Generals department was some
time in drawing up the indictment. An
indictment was drawn up by the Deputy
Attorney General, Mr.. Cathcart, which
was not sufficient in the mind of the At
torney General, the Attorney General
| then drawing different indictment. The
court does not know whether the facts
| that could be proven would warrant a
conviction in this case of the defendant
Certainly there was statement
| of facts upon which an indict-
ment might have been drawn that
would have resulted differently. The
statement of the Attorney General that,
because Mr.. Paul Neumann has passed
away and he was the only fair attorney

could fairly try this case. By Attorney
General: I did not say that.) Whatever

Enrly Pasturage.

The first grass in spring is watery and
has very little nutrition in it, partly be-
cause 1t is usually to be found on the
low lands, where the better grade OF
grasses do not grow. Yet we used to
like TO get cattle and sheep into it as
soon as 1t was large enough to give
them a fair bite. as such grass is poor
at the best. and almost worthless after
1t gets tough and harsh. But we never
depended much upon it as food for
them, excepting for its succulent quail
ties. We fed as much hay and grain
the morning before we let them into
pasture as II they were to remain in the
yard Then we took them In early, and
at night they were fed at the barn
again. The green grass loosened the
bowels, and perhaps we had little
more milk, or a little thriftier growth.
but 1t made the change from hay to
pasture more gradual, and they seemed
to relish it. especially If the roots were
all gone, as they usually We're likely to
be at that season. That was before the
days of the silo. and II we had one
well filled we might think it better now
to feed ensilage. and let the bog grass
grow to be used as bedding. or to be
used as a covering for Strawberries or
spinach, or as mulch for some other
crops.-American Cultivator.

pounds lawn dressing per acre, which

usual superphosphates. and sow In
spring as early as the ground can be

prefer the artificial fertilizer to the
barnyard manure for lawn, rs being
free from weed seeds. The above mir.
ture is also good one for permanent
