FOUND OUT
CHINESE SHOWED WHAT HE
WANTED TO KNOW.
Attorney Given a Practical Illustration
of How an Alleged Assault and Bat
terry was Inflicted.

The first of the numerous assault
cases growing out of the land dispute
between the Honolulu Plantation and
August Herring was heard in Judge
WilcoX's court yesterday afternoon. The
first hearing resulted in a victory for
Herring the defendant. Herring was
charged with assault and battery with
weapon obviously and imminently
dangerous to life, Chinese named Buk
Hook being the complainant
G. G. Biting appeared for the defence
while f. F. Thompson conducted the
prosecution. 1t appears that the Chi
nese was on the land which Herring
claimed and when ordered away, the
Chinese refused to leave. Herring was
alleged to have showed revolver un-
der the nose of the Chinese and then
caught the Celestial by the back and
showed him along.
Biting was very careful in his cross
examination of the witness. The at
| tOrney wanted to learn how the defen-
dant had used the right hand in CATCH
| ing hold of the Chinese when the al
legged revolver was held in Herring's
right hand. Biting got the Chinese to
stand down from the witness chair
and insisted on the witness explaining
the position that Herring and the Chi
nese had been in, When Herring was
alleged to have caught hold of the wit
ness. Inc CnlneSe lfleu, through the
aid of an interpreter, to explain how
| the assault had occurred but this was
not satisfactory to Biting who persist
ed in the Chinese explaining the mat
ter further and more in detail. Sudden
ly without an instant's warning, the
! Chinese made rush at Biting
grabbed him by the back and showed
and rushed him violently down the CEN
ter aisle of the court room almost jam
against the judges bench. This prac~
! Teal illustration of the alleged attack
was so sudden that Biting stood be-
wildered after the Chinese had releas-
ed his hold, while the court and every
body in the room simply roared with
laughter This illustration effectually
closed that particular line of cross exa-
mination.
Herring was discharged by Judge
| Wilcox however as the evidence did not
Justify holding the defendant to trial.
Herring's wife did not fare so well
however. She was charged with as
sault with a weapon on Deputy High
Shriff Chillingworth. She was accused
of having pointed a weapon at the Of
ficer's head when she thought he was
going on the land which her husband
claims belongs to him. She was COM
mitted to the circuit court for trial.

MACON DEMANDS RETURN OF
SUM PAID.
Question of the Right of the Com
mission to Charge to Go to Supreme
Court.

The question of the right of the court
of Chinatown fire commissioners 10
charge fees for the certificates of award
is to be taken to the Supreme court on
an agreed submission of facUs. j. AL
fred Magoon who paid his fees under
protest, has made a demand on the
commissioners for the return of his
money, amounting to nearly 5000 and
the commissioners having refused the
demand, the question of the legality
of the charges will be submitted to the
Supreme court.
The fees paid by Whiting and Robin
son. amounting to about $500, were
also paid under protest but that firm
has not made any appearance so far in
the contest of the fees. The matter
was referred to Attorney General Dole
who with Magoon, will probably agree
upon a statement of the facts of the
case, which are simple, and ask the
Supreme court to decide the law. The
facts are simply that the fire commits
sioners, appointed under the Gilfllan
act Of 1901, imposed certain charges up
on claimants for the making of certi-
ficates
Section five of the act creating the
commission declared that it should
have the right to make all necessary
rules and regulations for conducting it's
business" 1t is claimed that the charg-
ing of fees comes within this rule. and
that the fee-charging is enforcement
of a rule adopted by the court
In Section 16, however, the act appro-
priated 400 for the expenses of the
commission, and it is claimed that this
section was intended to limit the ex-
penditure to the amounts it set forth,
though it does not expressly do so.

lure and the fact that the majority OF
both houses was composed of Hawai-

COMMERCE AND cENrILIrY.
Rum or on Homemade Candy Made
Sister Jane Nervous and stopped
Its Sale. N

One OF the most interesting pieces of char
acter drawing in Hawthorne's work is the
proud old New England woman, Hepzi-
bah, in the House of Seven Cables
Forced to keep shop, she used to wish that
customers would not come to witness the
fall of her pride and her fortunes. The
Washington Post tells similar story, the
scene of which is laid in Pennsylvania VIII
lage.
Two old spinsters keep little shop in
which they sell pins and calico and other
"small wares" Last summer Washington
woman saw jar of homemade candy in
their window, and bought some of it. 1t
was so good that she bought more of it, and
told all the summer visitors about it. There
was run" on homemade candy, and the
jar had to be reflled again and again.
One day the Washington woman called
for some more of the candy, and was told
that the sisters were out of it. A day later
she called again, and the elder sister, with
some embarrassment, said that they were
still out, and recommended that she try
/, the city-made candy at the drug store. This
was not what the Washington woman want
ed, so after two days she paid third visit
to the shop. Still the candy jar was empty.
"Aren't you ever going to have any more
of it? she asked.
The elder sister hesitated in obvious dis
tress.
'I don't think we are," she said, at
length. "You see so many people got to
running in here asking for that candy, and it
made so much confusion, that Sister Jane
got nervous about it, So we decided not to
sell any more candy. We aren't going to
keep it after this"
