Gerard Barton, the new organist at
ST. Andrews Cathedral. made his firsI
appearance in a public recital before
Honolulu audience last evening at the
German Lutheran church and scored
an unqualified success. The audience,
which heard him, was unfortunately
very small and not at all commensurate
with the merit Of the very excellent
program given by Mr.. Barton.
| Mr.. Barton possesses a firm, even
| touch, and his rendition of the mas
| terpieces from Mendelssohn, Wagner,
Handel and other of the masters was
the best perhaps. to which Honolulu
music lovers have ever been treated.
| He was at his best in the difficult num-
bers chosen by him for the initial APP
pearance in public, such as Gounod's
| Faust Prelude" and Wagner S
| "Traume." One of his most enjoyable
numbers was Handers Chorus" from
.Samson'), ''rhen Round about the
Starry Throne
| Two of the numbers, and they were
among the most enjoyable, were tran
| scribed for the organ by Mr.. Barton
himself. These were .'Traume" (study
to Tristan and Isolde) from Wagner,
and 'tAndante Cantabile'' (from the
| String Quartette, OPP. IL, by Tschai-
| kovsky.
| Mr.. Barton fully justified the success
| which he had attained in California be-
| fore coming to Honolulu.
| Mr.. Isaac Dillingham; assisted Mr..
Barton. He sang in good voice and his

He sang the Aria from ''Elijah.'') "It

SIXTO LOPEZ is
HERE ONCE MORE

Sixto Lopez, the noted Filipino leader
who was one of the heads in the in
surrection under Aguinaldo, is again
in Honolulu. He arrived yesterday on
will probably remain in Honolulu for
a couple of weeks.
The last time Mr. Lopez was a WISH
tor here he narrowly escaped arrest
at the instance of Major w. w. Rob-
inson, who was depot quartermaster
for the United States army at that
time, and the late United States Dis
trict Attorney Baird. There was a
midnight session between these gen.
tlemen and others and the whole mat
tier of placing Lopez under arrest for
reasonable utterances made over his
signature and which appeared in the
Advertiser as an interview, was dis
cussed. It resulted in Lopez not be-
ing arrested, but it was a CLOSE shave.
Sixto Lopez did not want to be in
terviewed yesterday. He was adj
dressed by an Advertiser man on the
deck of the Doric while he was busy
transferring his baggage ashore to be
examined, but his desire was not to
be interviewed in any matters.
What is the object of your visit to
Honolulu, Mr.. lopez" was asked.
"oh, I'm just going to stay here a
couple of weeks visiting friends, that's
ALL was the reply.
Are you going to Manila, or any
where in the Philippines?
Mr.. Lopez considered the question
for a short period and then replied that
it was not his intention to do so yet
but that he would go to Nagasaki.
do you intend to look up the sugar
industry while here, to apply it to the
conditions in the Pnilippines?''
"Well, shall certainly take advan-
tage of the excellent opportunity pre-
scented here to look up the advanced
ihCliooo III iNdhiiiS SuSdi, .Ioi uiioCl-
stand they use the finest machinery in
the Hawaiian mills. but I am not look
ing into that industry particularly"
''Your sister, while here, took quite
an interest in the production of sugar"
ooh, yes, I know she is quite in
terested."
Have you anything to say regarding
the PhiIipDina situation q"
mo, 1 do not care to discuss that
matter at present" was his reply.
And that ended the interview.

DEMURRER
Question if House
Vouchers Are
Pub. Docs.
Forger of Postal Money
Order Is Sentenced
Two Years.
Woman's Habsas Corpus Case.
Pilot Lorenzen's Salvage
Suit on Trial.

Solomon Meheula's demurrer to in
dictment for destroying public docu-
ments was argued in the Federal court
yesterday. Judge Dole asked counsel
to file briefs containing their authori-
ties today, as he would like to make his
ruling on Monday next.
The main ground of the demurrer is
that the Clerk of the Territorial Leg
islature is not Federal officer, hence
is not amenable to the United States
statute under which he is indicted.
J.. j. Dunno, Assistant District At
torney, in the course of his argument
against the demurrer quoted the Or
ganic Act where it prescribes that the
Secretary of the Territory shall record
and preserve all the laws and proceed
ings of the Legislature" contendilg
that the Secretary must of necessity
obtain the documents constituting such
claws and proceedings" from the Clerk
of the Legislature. These were public
documents under the Organic Act pass
ed by Congress and their custodian be-
fore they were handed over to the Sec
rotary of the Territory was therefore a
Federal officer in that respect. If the
Clerk destroyed any part of the pro-
ceedjngs the Secretary could not record
and preserve them Leaving out OF
view, then, the broad theory that the
Territory was only the creature of
Congress and it's affairs in consequence
of Federal nature, the attorney for
the United States maintained that The
Clerk was shown to be a Federal Off
Ger. When Congress directed that the
Secretary should record and preserve
the proceedings of the Legislature, it
must have been with respect to the
preceding body of law which provided
for the protection of public documents.
G.. w. Ashford for the defendant call
ed his opponents argument an Sin
genious'' one, but claimed that it failed
to. prove Federal jurisdiction in the
case. Congress, had given Hawaii a
government more nearly approaching
state government than any other ter
ritory had ever received. If it had rep
resentation in Congress with the right
to vote, this Territory's independence
would be practically complete. The
Federal court had no jurisdiction over
offenses against the Territory. Clerk
Meheula was not a Federal official.
What Congress might or must have un-
derstood had nothing to do with this in
dietment, as unfortunately for the case
Congress did not make the Clerk a
Federal officer nor make the legislative
records in his custody public docu-
ments, within the scope of the United

THE WORRIED WOMEN.

Ihey say men must work and
women must weep; but alas, in
this too busy world women often
have to work and weep at the
same time. Their holidays are
too few and their work heavy
and monotonous. It makes them
nervous and irritable. The de-
pressed and worried woman loses
her appetite and grows thin and
feeble. Once in while she has
spells of palpitation and has to
lie up for a day or two. If some
disease like influenza or malarial
fever happens to prevail she is
almost certain to have an attack
of it, and that often paves the
way for chronic troubles of the
throat, lungs and other organs;
and there is no saying what the
end may be. Let the tired and
overladen woman rest as much
as possible; and, above all, place
at her command bottle of

memoranda sent up to the Clerks desk
by members, containing the matter %
motions or amendments they might Of
fer. Suppose the Clerk made out a
voucher for himself. Was he obliged TO

Judge Dole asked counsel if the clerk
of that court, in a matter wherein he
was personally interested, could not file
a petition OF pleading with himself as
clerk.
Mr. Ashford stuck little at this, but
would not admit the parallel.
Mr.. Dunno tainted him with refus-
ing to recognize that in the same per-

defendants argument.

Strangest Well In The World
In the Summer It Freezes and in
the Winter the Ice Melts.

Be it understood that this news
paper offers no explanation of the
queer freak of nature described
below. In the western section Of
this great and glorious country
there IS well whose water freezes
in the summer and melts in the
winter. That much we have as
sured ourselves is true. We did
not take the mere word of our cor
respondent, but investigated the
story and found that he had given
the facts correctly. With regard to
the scientific explanation of this
queer reversal of natural laws we
confess We prefer TO pass"
Especial Correspondence of The
Tribune.)
LAME DEER, Mont, Feb. 16.-
suppose 1 ought to begin this
story in half-apologetic way, for
1 can scarcely blame anyone for
refusing to believe that well water
can freeze in hot weather and thaw
when the ice season comes. The
well is to be seen, however, for l
have seen it, and seeing is believ-
ing l will describe it without
any effort to embellish the recital.
The Ice Well, as it is called now,
was sunk in the early eighties,
probably in 80 or 'S3, by a party
of men prospecting for gold. They
had found indications of copper ore
and began operations on the east
side of Greenleaf creek, which is
one Of the tributaries of Rosebud.
At that time there was some talk
through the Yellowstone valley of
gold being found in paying quanti-
ties in the Wolf mountains, and
the report caused quite a number
to go prospecting for the yellow
metal.
The party l have referred to sunk
their well about 40 feet. E. Wilder
and Jim Campbell, two of the
prospectors, were the last to aban-
don the neighborhood when their
dreams of gold finds faded. a man
named William Shantle came to
the place later, and, building his
house there, attached the well to
his domestic arrangements. He
soon discovered the amazing pc.
culiarities of this well, and made
good use of the feakishness by keep
ing bis vegetables and fresh food
in the natural refrigerator. He
told me that no matter how warm
the summer the well was always
frozen solid. while in the winter
the conditions were exactly reversed
Last summer I went over to see
the sight for myself. The ice was
then about eight feet from the toy
OF the well and was solid, as 1 test
ed it with heavy weights. The
greater the heat OF the day tn,
harder the ice was frozen. On reaI
hot days icicles formed from til,
