TRIED 10 MuZZLE GREW.

The quartermaster of the Thomas
feels the respOnsibly which the govern
ment has reposed in him by placing
about $50 women school teachers under
his care. In fact, the captain was so
desirOus of protecting them from pos
sible harm that had there been any
room for glass cages he would probably
have brought some aboard the ship and
put the school teachers in them.
About two days after the Thomas
left San Francisco the officers of the
vessel were summoned before the quar-
termaster and made to sign an agree
ment not to address any of the school
"marms" unless in answer to some
questions or matters relating to the
business of the vessel There was a
howl raised from all hands but the or
der went and everybody signed it,
The rule did not last long though
Most of the ships crew had been to
Manila before and as all declared that
they were expert Spanish scholars the
school teachers made their ignorance
of the Spanish language an excuse for
conversing with the officers.
When the next detachment of school
''marms" is sent out on the Thomas
the quartermaster will probably send
ma requizit on for a hundred or more
muzzles to place on the crew.

THREE CHINESE CO BACK
YONG HAN REFUSES TO LEAVE
HIS BRIDE.
Estee Orders Two More DepOrtations
And All the Chinese Will Be Sent on
The Peru Tomorrow.

Kan You,-or Mrs. Yong Han, will be
sent back to China on the steamer Peru
which is to leave tomorrow, and her
husband, who is an old resident of Ha-
wall will go with her. The only effect
of her coming to Honolulu to join the
husband she married Chinese fashion,
some years ago, has been probably to
cost him his residence here. Kan You
is the young woman who married again
while in custody here. Judge Estee
made an order allowing her to with
draw the marriage certificate, which
was offered in evidence, and substitute
d certified copy so that she may take
the certificate with her.
Two more Chinese were ordered de-
ported by decisions rendered this morn
ing. One is All Quai, a girl of 13, who
failed to prove her birth in the Hawai-
ian Islands The other is a man, Lam
Chow, who was unsuccessful in the
same way. The testimony in behalf Of
Lum Chow was fearfully and wonder
fully contradictory, and the judge held
that his Hawaiian birth had not been
proved. His friends didn't seem to
have learned their stories well, or else
they had different stories, All Quai
will go back in charge of Mrs. Yong
Han.
The case of Mrs. Yong Han has
aroused deep sympathy among the Chi
nese, and there will be weeping and
wailing when she is placed on the Peru
by Deputy Marshal Hendry. Her hus-
band is a wealthy Chinese here. She
was secured" for him as a wife by
his father in China, and before the cou-
pie saw one another a ceremony was
performed in China, by which it was
supposed that they We're made man and
wife Then Kan You started for Ha-
wall and got married in American style
only to be ordered back by cruel law
and to take her husband with her He
says he will not leave his wife, and un-
less she can come back again with him
and secure admission as his wife on an
other application he, too, will give up
his right to stay in American territory.

WRITES TO TERRITORIAL CEN
TRIAL COMMITTEE.
Recommendation Wanted for Appoint
ments of Court Ofhcers-Party Power
In the Future.

Judge Gear sent a letter yesterday to
the Republican Territorial Central
Committee asking for suggestions as to
the appointments to be made by him
under the new appropriation bill. The
letter stated that while the judge was
absolutely out of politics now, he could
not but recognize the value of party or
ganization and would be pleased to hear
from the committee with recommends
tions as to appointees for the positions
of clerk, bailiff, interpreter for his
court, and bailiff for the Grand Jury.
The committee held a meeting yester-
day afternoon to consider the matter.
1t was decided to recommend A. G.
Kaulokou for the position of clerk and
Emil Ney, known as Marshall Ney'
for Grand Jury bailiff. No recommen-
dations were decided upon for the other
two positions. Those present at the
meeting of the committee were j. f.
Kennedy, b. II. Wright, ]. P. Cooke, T.
McCantS Stewart, A. N. Kepoikai and
secretary e. r. Hendry
The members of the committee ex-
pressed themselves as highly pleased
with the course of Judge Gear Those
present were unanimous in the opinion
that it was setting a precedent which
should be followed in such matters, and
which was in line with American me-
thods. I'VE are readjusting political
affairs along the lines of American
practlce, said stewart, and was
glad to see Judge Gear take the course
he did, just as glad as 1 was to see
superintendent Boyd, as one of his first
acts asking the Central Committee to
make recommendations regarding ap-
pointments for his department.
1--WE hope to have a party organiza-
ton along American lines. The Presi-
dent of the United States before maxi
ing appointments consults the Repres-
entatives and Senators in Washington
and they in turn consult their party or
ganization. The man who serves the
country best serves the party best and
the idea is to get men of character and
ability who are at the same time good
party workers.
i believe the time is coming, and
very soon, when the party organization
here will submit to the President of the
United States nominations for the Of
fees of Governor, Judges, federal and
other, and all other appointive Offices
in the Territory. The President is well
known to be party man and so is
Mark Hanna, and the principle of party
orga nization cannot be ignored in Anne

Judge Gear will appoint Kaulukou
clerk, and Ney bailiff of the Grand
Jury, in accordance with the recon-
mendation of the committee

WIFE OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE
TRANsVAAL.
Was Noted for Her Housewifely Abin-
ties and Attainments-wa the
Mother of Sixteen Children.

NEW YORK, July 2O.-A cable to
the Sun from Pretoria says: Mrs. Krue-
ger. wife of the former President of
the late Transvaal Republic, who is
now in Europe died this afternoon
after a short illness.
Mrs. Kruger was a typical Boer
woman of the older generation. Her
ancestors were well-born Hollanders,
who went to South Africa 200 years ago
TO escape religious prosecutions.
At the time of her marriage she was
Miss du Plessis and noted for her
housewifely abilities. She herself sum-
med up her attainments by saying that
she could bake, sew, sweep and scrub.
These accomplishments, combined With
her frugality and thrift, made her an
ideal Boer wife.
When her husband rose to power and
wealth she abandoned none of her old
habits. 1t is said that he saved all of
his annual salary of $4,000, and that
they lived on the allowance of $4,000 a
year for coffee money" She employed
a few native servants to do the labori-
Gus parts of the household work but
she continued to cook the meals and
brew her husbands coffee without as
sistance. and to make her own clothes.
She abstained from all ostentation and
had for state occasions a single black
silk gown. These things made her the
idol of the Boer people. She was the
mother of sixteen children.
She was a little younger than her
husband and was his second wife, his
first having died nine months after her
marriage.

THOUSAND ACRE CLAUSE
GEAR GIVES AN IMPORTANT
DECISION
Corporation Titles to over 1000 Acres
Valid Except Against the Govern
ment-Atherton VS.. Wahiawa Sugar

Judge Gear rendered a decision this
morning under which the thousand
acre" provision in the Organic Act is
of no effect. unless the government
chooses to take the matter up and
bring actions to take away from cor
porations any lands they may hold in
violation of the law. The clause in
question provides that no corporation
in the Territory shall hold and acquire
more than 1000 acres of land. 1t was
quoted by the Wahiawa Sugar Com
pany, in answer to the suit of j. Il.
Atherton. The defendants claimed that
plaintiff, who was endeavoring to clear
his title to lease. had no right to be
heard in court of equity because he
was holding as trustee more than 1000
acres of land, in violation of law.
Judge Gear held with the plaintiff
that the alleged violation of law had
nothing to do with the case, and grant
ed motion that those parts of the an
swer dealing with the subject should be
stricken out 1t was held that the title
OF corporation to more land than
the law allows a corporation to hold
was valid except as against the Terri
tory, and could only be made void by
direct action for that -urpose. In the
present case it was held that the raising
of the question by plaintiff was going
outside of the case and bringing in
matters not material to the DEFENDANTS
case, which the court could not take up.
The decision says
Defendants counsel admits that a
deed to a corporation of property by
which the corporation would own over
1000 acres of land would not be void,
but only vOidable and they contend that
while the plaintiff in this action may do
as he pleases with the land as far as the
defendant is concerned, yet the moment
he comes into court of equity to ask
the aid of the court the Govt win re-
fuse to lend its aid on the ground
stated by the well known maxim, That
he who comes into a court of equity
must come with clean hands,, and that
the plaintiff having obtained the land
in contraventiOn of the terms of the
Organic Act, cannot be heard in a
court of equity to ask it's aid"
1t is held that this point is not well
taken, in the case at issue. the. maxim
being only applicable to the transact
tion with regard to which it is raised
which is not the one involved in the
suit
The decision was on executions to the
answer of defendant, sustaining the ex-
ceptions. The land involved was leased
first to John Emmeluth and. it is claim
ed, after he had defaulted and forfeit
ed the lease. it was leased to Atherton.
Emmeluth, or the Wahiawa Sugar Co.
refused to cancel the forfeited lease,
and suit was brought to compel cancel
