Steamer ST. Paul Finally Succeeds In
Passing La Touraine.

New York, August 9.-The American
Line steamer st. Paul. from Southampton
and Cherbourg and the French liner La
Touraine, from Havre. arrived in port
today. The two liners had a most excit-
ing finish at the lightship. The st. Paul
first saw the big Frenchman at daybreak
in the distance ahead. All day yesterday
the great ships put forth their best eff
forts, and at night La Touraine was still
ahead. At 1856 o'clock this morning the
American liner passed Fire Island and
the passengers had the satisfaction Of
seeing the French steamer close along
side.
From there to the lightship the st. Paul
continued to gain, and passed the Sandy
Hook lightship at 9:S1 a. M. three miles
ahead Of La Touraine.

HOW JUDGE WILCOX SHAMED
TWO BOYS.
Little Girls Said They Were Attacked
by Boys on Liliha Street-Kameha-
meha Pupils Appear.

Enoch Johnson Jr, and Joe Ioela,
native youths, were given very heavy
sentences this morning by Judge Will
cox on charges of assault and battery.
Joe was charged with attacking Carrie
Spencer, a girl IL years of age, and
EnOch was accused of attacking Lizzie
Spencer, a girl II years old. The Of
fence took place last week on Lilina
street near school.
The little girls told very straightfor-
ward stories. From their statements,
the assaults were of a decidedly seri-
Gus character. The boys denied having
hurt the children at all, and claimed
that the little girls had first called
them dirty names.
Judge Wilcox did not take to the
story of the defendants and said that
he believed the stories of the little
girls He said that he knew if he fin
ed them, as small an amount as So,
their attorney, Judge kaulukou, would

! to teach them a lesson and also make
it worth while to take an appeal, so ne
| sentenced them to three months each
at hard labor. Notice of appeal was
! promptly given by Judge Kaulukou.
The testimony was OF rather sala-
! cious character and two native youths
in the very rear last row of the court
| room, were noticed by the court, to be
| craning their necks and making nu-
usual efforts to hear the evidence.

.AFOUL NEW RULES
ATTORNEYS FIND PROVISION
UNPLEASANT.
1t May Work Considerable Inconvenl-
BY Causing Disagreeable Delay.

In the first circuit court this morning
several attorneys ran up against a pro-
vision of the new rules of the circuit
which may work some inconvenience in
probate and chamber matters, Com
tinuances Of one week were asked in the
matter of the Martin guardianship and
in the case of Il. Wundenberg, trustee,
VS. George Markham. Judge Gear stat
ed that under the rule providing
that probate matter once taken up by
a judge must be heard by him until
concluded he could grant a continuance
to the end of this week, or for three
week, until his next week of probate
sessions. Judge Humphreys, who was
on the bench, suggested that as the
matter, demurrer, was not a term
had been begun before another judge,
it was his case anyhow, and might De
continued for two weeks. This was
done, and the other matter was post
pOned until Friday.
Attorney Ashford raised the question
of whether the Wundenberg- Markham
matter, a demurrer, was not a term
proceeding. Judge Gear stated that a
statute enacted since Ashford had last
practtced in Hawaii, had given Judges
authority to hear demurrers i'm cham
bers. II. 1. Dillon, of MagoOn and Dill
lon, stated in asking for a continuance,
that the negotiations were in progress
for a settlement of the case out Of
court, and Ashford repeated that there
was 4 chance that the SUIT would be
ended without further litigation.
Under the new rule referred to each
judge takes a turn at sitting for a week
in probate matters. a probate mat
ter once taken up by judge is to be
handled by him to the end, hence such
matters must be heard during the week
when they come up or continued at
least three weeks.

AT THE ORPHEUM.
The Pile Driver Gets Four Curtain
Calls.

The prospects Of genuine thrill from
the sight of a hero rescued from
practical pile driver by a brave SOU
brette, brought a packed house to the
Orpheum on Saturday evening despite
counter attractions. The bill "A Nut
meg Match" despite it's peculiar title
proved perhaps the best of all the COM
edy dramas that the Elleford's have
put on. The big pile driver scene
where the villain is frustrated just in
the nick of time, fairly brought down
the house and brought up the curtain
four times after it was dropped on the
act.
The audience throughout proved in
excellent humor added to by the efforts
of Watson who is as popular as ever.
This is the last week of the company
and they seem to have reserved several
of their best bills to the last. "a Nut
meg Match" is a great laugh producer
and my Wife's Baby" which goes on
tomorrow night should prove still more
so. Little Lord Fauntleroy, the last
announced bill, is well known to all by
reputation and the company is espe-
cially fortunate in the possession OF
Baby Lillian for the title role. "A
Nutmeg Match goes on tonight for
the last time.

son yesterday afternoon, some one COM
United a burglary of the vessel by
breaking into the cabin. Some valuable
