cidental customs that seemed to have
been adopted on the occasion of the
Prince Imperiars marriage, and that
have been followed ever since in his
household.
In all essential respects the MARTA ge
indicated that new Importance was TO
be given to the nuptial tie, and the
prince himself has recognized the spir-
it of the change by abolishing the old
rule of separate existences for the hus-
band and the wife within the palace.
He takes his meals with the princess,
and, otherwise admits her to an I'M
precedented share in his daily doings.
That the boy should live with his par
ents would thus have been a natural
corollary. But it appears that such a
radical departure from time hOnored
etiquette could not be sanctioned. The
little boy was handed over to the care
of Count Kawanura, an old nobleman,
who distinguished himself greatly at
the time of the restoration (fS6O, serv-
ed afterward for several years as min

MUTINY Of

Tale of Crime in

TWO SURVIVORS
WRITE HISTORY
incidents OF the DoIphin's Cruise
Which Hinge Upon Many
Honolulu Incidents.

THE narrative of one of the thrill
ing incidents connected with the
early history OF these Islands,
has just been republished. 1t appeared
originally in 1928, and is titled, "a mar
rative of the mutiny on board the ship
Globe, of Nantucket, by William Lay
and Cyrus NJ. Hussey, the only surviv-
crs of the massacre of the ships COM
pany." 1t furnishes a thrilling episode
in the eventfuI and daring lives of the
whalemen who visited this port in the
early part of the century.
The Globe, a whaleship, owned in
Nantucket, entered this port in 1924
for supplies. Here six of her crew de-
serted and were replaced by five white
men and one native Hawaiian. After
leaving this place she cruised for
whales until she nearly reached the
equator.

became the ringleaders in mutiny in
which only a part of the crew Joined,
Lay and Hussey, the narrators of the
story remaining neutral. but obedient
to the leaders. The motive for the mu-
tiny was simply rage towards the
captain and mates, who had punished
them for disobedience.
One night when the captain and
mates were asleep, the ringleaders en-
tered the cabin with an axe. The cap
tain's head was instantly severed. The
rooms of the three mates were broken
open, and they We're also butchered.
The bodies of these men were cast
overheard before life was extinct. One
of the mates made a most desperate
struggle for life, but a musket ball
killed him. A part of the crew Joined
the mutineers, and the rest submitted
fear of death.
The course of the vessel was then
laid for MuIgrave island, one of the
group, and near Marshall
and Gilbert Islands. On the voyage
one of the mutineers, a black man
named Humphreys. who served as
was suspected by the leaders.
He was tried before a jury of two
mutineers and found guilty. He was
forthwith hung at the fore yardarm.
AS the ship passed Marshall island
the natives gathered OH the beach to
look at her. The mutineers, without
fired a volley of musket-
~ and killed a number OF them. An
anchorage was made at Mulgrave ISL
and, and the leaders resolved to land
the stores and destroy the vessel. A
tent was erected and many of the
stores were landed But a quarrel be- !

SLAVE CASES IN
FEDERAL COURT
Court Orders Verdict of AcquittaI
as to the Cuban and
Colombian.

Judge Estee disposed of two more Of
the so-called slavery cases yesterday In
the morning Henry Arinas, native of
Colombia, and Angela Asteda. who
claims Cuba as her birthplace. were the
defendants. AT the conclusion of the
evidence Deputy United States Attorney
Dunno asked that the jury return a YER
dict of acquittal. as he did not believe
the testimony warranted a conviction.
The court, upon motion of Attorney
Creighton, then instructed the jury to
return a verdict of not guilty This was
done, the jurors not leaving their seats.
The following was the jury which
heard the case: John Callahan, ]. E.
Schubert. Charles E. Murray. r. NJ.
Duncan, w. ]. Hickey, George II. Tur-
ner. John d. Holt, a. D. Scroggy, z. f.
Mossman, George P. Thieler, II. c. Nor
ton and Harry F. Davidson.
In the afternoon the case of Chung
Put, Chinese, and H. Hosaki, Japa-
nese, was heard by the following jury:
Geo. p Thielen, E. E. Mossman, E. Z.
Whitman, T. W. Hebron, r. Z. Lock-
wood, L. B. Wood. Chas. E. Murray.
Geo. H. Turner, T. Fleming, J. t: Cope
land, II. F. Davidson, John Callahan.
At o'clock the case was closed with
out the introduction of evidence the
court having refused defendants motion
to instruct for acquittal. At 6 O'Clock no
agreement having been reached. the jury
was sent to the hotel for dinner, where
they spent the night.
Judge Estee punished his first Juror
yesterday for failing to appear when his
name was called. F. S Smith was the
man who failed to respond
when Clerk Mailing called his name. and
the court issued an attachment to Mar
shall Hendry for his arrest. Smith was
brought in about IL o'clock, and the
court, after mildly demonstrating with
him for his neglect of duty, imposed a
fine sufficient to pay the costs of serving |

At atmospheric pressure, oxygen is
liquefied at 1873 degrees below zero, and
nitrogen at 1876 degrees below, and it is
by taking advantage of this difference
that NJ. RaouI Pictet is able to sepa-
rate oxygen from the air at q cost
stated to be not more than a fifth of
a cent per cubic yard. The process
is the result of more than twenty years
of experiment. Liquid air is passed
through a suitable tube into ten sue
cessiVe basins, a portion Of the nitro
gen being given off under slight pres
sure in each basin, and pure oxygen be-
ing deposited in the bottom vessel and
drawn off into a gasometer. Much is
naturally expected from cheap oxygen.

MILEAGE.

The question of drawing mileage fol-
Journeys that have not been made Is a
moral one for members of the Legisla
ture to settle with their cOnsciences
According to the Organic Act, the
members of the Legislature shall re-
ceiye for their services, in addition to
mileage at the rate of ten cents mile
each way, the sum OF four hundred dol
liars" This means that the mileage is
theirs If they want It, the law assum-
ing that they must make at least one
round trip between their places of
abode and the capitol. In the case of
the present Legislature some members
from the other islands did not return
home at the close of the regular ses-
sion. Instead they stayed here to re-
sumo work at the special session. Can
these men legally draw mileage for the
regular session as well as the special
one? The House has decided that they
can, and the House Is probably right.
Ten cents a mile each way will go to a
statesman from the big island, for ex-
ample, even though he has only trav-
elled one way and had a pass with
which to save expense. A nice idea OF
honor-that is to say, poignant one
might hesitate 10 accept luii HlHedbe
under these circumstances. but 1t is the
custom to do 30, and custom Is more
powerful than propriety.
There ought. we think, to be some
legislation fixing the amount of mile
age paid. especially by Congress as re-
spects it's own members. The Federal
law makers credit themselves with
twenty cents a mile each way. This
was all very we'll in stage-coach and
ox-team days, when the rate was orig
inally fixed, but travel has cheapened
since then. Fifty years ago a delegate
from Hawaii could not have journeyed
to Washington "by the shortest route"
for twenty cents mile. His land-out-
fitting would have cost that. Now
Delegate Wilcox can travel from here
to Washington in first-class style for
$3.50, yet he draws $1,000. That Is not
fair to the taxpayers though admit
teddy lawful. There ought to be no
chance under our system for perquisites
TO get permanent rootage lest they
overrun the soil.
