SAMOA
WITH
OWNER

The German steamer Samoa with
her owner, G. Kunst aboard arrived
from Apia and Pagopago this morn
ing after pleasant trip of nine days
from the latter port. She Is on her
first trip here and comes to inaugu.
rate new line between Honolulu
and Samoa. The Samoa was recent
ly bought in Sydney from the Union
Steamship Co. under whose flag she
has been run for great many years
in the Colonial trade. She was form
erly the Ringarooma and for several
years before being purchased by Mr..
Kunst was laid up. Ii is understood
that good price was paid for the
vessel and much money expended
tn fit her for the trade between Ha-
hundred and thirty tons net register
and about twelve knots speed. As
she has been laid up so long ii will
take d couple of trips to get the stiff
ness out of her but her officers say
that when she is in good working con-
dition, she will be able to greatly re-
duce her time of the present trip from
Apia.
Besides her owner and his secre-
tary one other passenger Mr.. Con-
rad. arrived Nothing but ten or
twelve tons of cocoanuts were
brought as a cargo but she is expect
ed to get several hundred tons Of
freight on the return trip. She will

AthertOn UphOlds
Title Of Champion

Contrary to general expectations,
Frank Atherton upheld his title Of
champion yesterday by defeating Char.
ley Elston three straight sets in the
final tennis contest in singles. The re-
suit was considerable of surprise, for
the general public expected that Els
ton would win easily.
Athertons service was something
wonderful. He used the full arm
stroke. and sent the ball swift and low,
bouncing In an almost unrettirnable
manner. At times, E'ston could do
nothing with his serve. but at other
times he was able to place it to some
advantage.
Elston was great disappointment to
the majority of the spectators, who ex.
pected him to win. He played with
utter lack of confidence and seemed
half-hearted in his work. At the be.
ginning of the third set, he played in
splendid form, but 1t was only tempor-
airy and when Atherton braced lit
tie. Elston lost the set.
Yesterday was the third time Ather-
ton and Elston have met. Elston won
the championship in 1899. but In 1900
was defeated by Atherton for first
place. Yesterday. Atherton played bet
ter than ever before, and 1t Is very
doubtful If Elston will ever be able to
regain second place honors.
Today at o'clock the only match In
the mixed doubles will be played. II
should prove to be very interesting
match. This is the only chance that
Honolulu will have of watching Mrs.
Elston with the racket this year. Mrs
Elstons playing always ELECTS con-
siderable interest for she is a very
strong and brilliant player. Mr.. and
Mrs. Elston will play Frank Atherton
and Miss Gertrude Scott for the mixed
championship.
The following matches in mems
doubles will be played today:
On Beretania courts at o'clock:
Fuller and Cheek vs. Irvine and Lans-
dale Cooke and Wilder VS.. Castle and
Canavarro.
On the Pacific courts: Hitchcock
and Wilder VS.. Prosser and Rice. at
$3.50 o'clock.

ESTATE CONTESTED By WIVES
Judge Madden Decides an Interest
ing Law Case.

Burlington, Sept. s0.-A, civil action
having some novel and interesting fea-
lures was decided at this term Of court.
Judge Madden filed his findings Of fact
opinion, from which tbs following his
tory of the case Is CLEANED:
In 1854. Job Hulse married the plain
tiff, Jane Huise, in England They
came to Pennsylvania, where they lived
till 1863 and accumulated 80 acres Of
land. Hulse then left his wife. with her
consent, in possession OF the farm and
went to Illinois. She has always lived
there and never remarked, but did not
know where Hulse was, though she
knew he was alive and, shortly after
his death, learned of that event
HuIse left Illinois in 1859 and came to
Anderson county, Kansas In 1870, he
married the defendant, Matilda Ivy
They lived as man and wife till his
death, about two years ago, raised q
family and owned $50 acres in Anderson
county, worth 5000, and 4So acres in
Coffee county. worth 1920.
The plaintiff brought suit to recover
a widows share of this property. Evil
dence was offered to show that in the
courts of the various counties where
Hulse had lived, no record of any di
yorce from his first wife had ever been
SO divorced before his marriage to the
defendant, holding that the evidence
offered was not sufficient to overcome
the presumption of divorce. The court
also found that the defendant had oon-
tributed materially to the accum u3ation
of property in this and Anderson coun-
ties.
The conclusions of law are that the
defendant was the lawful wife of job
Hulse and is entitled to one-han his
property and that her children are en-

Give Linit of sentenoe.

Burlington, Sept. 3O.-John Howe.
aged 10 years, who was convicted in
district court of criminal assault has
been sentenced to five years conf1ne-
ment in the state penitentiary. Judge
Dennis Madden, before pronouncing
sentence, reviewed the testimony, which,
he said, showed that the young man
had deliberately planned the assault,
had admitted it to several witnesses
and on the witness stand, and had used
force to accomplish his purpose. The
law gave the trial judge the discretion
airy power to send him to the Industrial
reformatory, as it was his first offense.
but he made distinction between a
premeditated crime and one committed
under the influence of passion. There
being no exteauating circumstance the
court gave the penitentiary sentence as
a punishment.

the first cut was made in the big force.
to inform the men that they could find

due to the fact that nearly all of the

plant own homes in that town. Instead
of going away to work they have Sc
