DEsERTION LAW AGAIN.

Judge Gear again declared unconSti-
tutional the Hawaiian desertion law
yesterday in the case of Fuji, Jap
anese woman sent to Jail for ten days
by Judge Hookano of Eva, who evil
IDENTIFY hadn't heard of the previous
ruling of the second judge upon this
statute. The case came up on applica-
ton for a writ of habeas corpus, and
the court was given another opportu-
nifty to eXpound constitutional law and
it's application to Hawaii. This law
gives the judiciary a duty which is
imposed nowhere else in the world. -
said Judge Gear. The court can only
be compelled to perform judicial du-
ties, and it is certainly not a judicial
duty to compel d judge to force a
reconciliation between husband and
wife. 1t is beyond the police power of
any State to compel husband and wife
to 1--we together. The law was evil
IDENTIFY made for Hawaiians, and may
have been good and necessary law
at the time. But this is a new coun-
try: it is a part of America now, and
must be conducted according to Amer
lean institutions, and the laws of the
kingdom are valid only when they are
not in conflict with the constitution of
the United States The Legislature
cannot pass any law it pleases unless
the same rights are conferred upon all
alike. and this court viii always SO

ANTS ARE HYPNo1ISTS.
Their Doctors Are Said to Give Mag
netic Treatment to AiIing Menu
bers of Their Mounds

That ants doctor their sick by hyp-
notism and magnetism is proved by
observation. An ardent student tells
how he witnessed what may be termed
4 seance- in medical science among
ants. He saw several of these little
creatures emerge from the hill and
noticed that there were some among
them which were weak and emacia t. ed
-invalids, in fact. They were accom-
panied by healthy members of the
community, and all made their way
toward distant mound.
On following their movements
through glass the observer saw on
this mound big and sturdy ant, which
made some motions in the direction of
the advancing invalids. The latter
went up the mound, one by one, and
submitted themselves to treatment.
This consisted; in the physician ant
passing his feelers over the head and
body of the patient in a manner dis
tinctly suggestive of the hypnotizing
of nerves and muscles practiced by
human doctors. Every one went
through the treatment, then the pa
tients went back, and the doctor
marched off in the opposite direction.

Quite Unbiased.

A Texas judge was robbed of a
horse not long ago and the thief,
being apprehended, was brought be-
fore him for trial. The judge eyed
the prisoner with deep satisfaction
for a minute or so and then delivered
himself thus:
Owing to a personal prejudice, the
court will not hear this case 1t Will
be tried by the bailiff, who will find
a verdict in accordance with the
facts.
I'm the meantime" added his
honor, impressively, ''the court will
go outside and prepare rope and
pick out a good tree."-Chicago Jour
nal
