In Memoriam.

BATEMAN. In loving remembrance of ANNIE Z,
BATEMAN who entered into rest one year
ago today, December 23, 1902.
God knew all about It: how noble,
How gentle she was, and how brave;
How bright her possible future.
Yet He put her to sleep in the grave
God knew all about those who loved her
Their sorrow, their grief and their pain;
And surely He'll ne'er let us suffer
Such anguish OF heart all in vain.
And so while we struggle I'm darkness.
May our loved ones prepare US place
In the heavenly home OF Our Father,
Where soon shall meet face TO face"
with faith we shall trust IN "our Father"
TIL life's suffering heartaches are Ger,
When He in His infinite mercy
Shall bring together once more.
MOTHER.
BURKE In sad and loving remembrance OF cur
dear mother ELIZABETH BURKE, who died
three years ago today, December 23. 1900
Three years ago today, dear mother-thres
years ago today
We stood beside your dying bed and saw you
pass away.
An angel stood there too, dear mother, TO
guide you to your home
That home of blessed peace and rest, than
home you Justly won.

JUDGE OOLE'S
FIRST OPINION
IT DENIES A MOTION TO QUAsH
RAZO MIYAMURA CASE.

Judge Dole's first decision as a fed
eral judge was read by him from the
bench this morning. 1t was on a
motion to quash the indictment in the
peonage case of TOrazo Miyamura. The
opinion is as follows:
The first objection, /. e. that the "in-
dictment charges this defendant with
the commission of two separate and
distinct felonies in the two courts" is
answered by Section 1924 Revised Sta
tutes:
when there are several charges a.
gainst any person for the same act or
transaction, or for two OF more acts
or transactions of the same class of
crimes or offenses, which may be pro-
perly Joined instead of having several
indictments, the whole may be jointed
in one indictment in separate counts;
and if two or more indictments are
found in such cases the Court may or
der them to be consolidated"
The two counts are presumably based
upon the same transaction.
If it should appear during the trial
that this was not the case, but that
there were two transactions connect
ed together, or that there were two
separate transactions according to the
several descriptions OF the two counts,
the indictment would still be within the
statute, in that The two offenses eharg-
ed are of the same class of crimes, !. e,
peonage and slavery, both involving
involuntary servitude as their main
feature and being the status which the
statutes relating to both offenses were
intended to cure.
The second part of the motion asks
that the second count of the indlct-
ment be quashed on the ground that
the same does not state sufficient facts
to constitute a crime under the laws Of
the United States The requirement.
in regard to sufficiency is briefly that
the offense shall be so fully stated that
the accused may know with what ne
is charged, and that a judgment may
be pleaded in bar to subsequent pro-
secution for the same offense subject
to this requirement in purely statu-
tory offences where the statute sets
forth all the elements necessary to
constitute the offence, 1t may be sutii-
ciently charged in the words of the
statute.
This law applies to the issue raised
by defendants counsel in relation 10
the second count, which describes the
offense in the words of the statute and
alleges facts of time, place and the
name of the person charged to have
been held in Involuntary servitude, suf-
hciently to constitute a crime under
the United States laws.
The motion TO quash is overruled on
| both points.
In the absence of any special aver
ments in the second count of the place
where the offense charged with COM
mitted, beyond the general allegation
that II happened in the District of Ha-
wall, and of the nature OF the involuh-

HALO AND AURORA.

Territorial Meteorologist Lydecker
SAYS there was no lunar rainbow last
night but halo or circle about the
moon "A degrees across. These halos In
this latitude are almost invariably
either % or A degrees across. They
are due to the refraction of the moons
light through crystals of ice and snow
in the upper atmosphere.
Mr. Lydecker also says that what
was mistaken for the aurora borealls'
or something akin to 1t was probably
due TO a bank of Cirrus cloud, which
stretched out i'm long horizontal lines,
and lighted by the moon, perhaps
would give an impression not unlike
that of the aurora borealis, pheno-
menon never known In such low lati-
tudes as these.

ASSETS ARE
TOO SMALL
INSURANCE COMMISSIONER DISSATISFIED WITH THE
STATEMENT OF ITS PROPERTY VALUES FILED BY
THE FIDELITY COMPANY-LARGE DISCREPANCY BE-
TWEEN HIS FIGURES AND THOSE OF THE COMPANY.

The realty includes many Kaimuld
lots, and the list of sundry property,
stock of the Honolulu Investment Com
pany. The stock is put in at a valua-
tion of $50, while the last sale reported
was at five dollars and a half.
On discovering this state of facts
Smithes wrote a letter to the company
requiring it to comply with the law, and
file additional assets. The company
was allowed sixty days in which to do
so. This is the first occasion the in
surance commissioner has had to eXer-
else these powers, under the act of the
last legislative session.
The Fidelity company filed articles of
Incorporation on March A last, setting
it's capital stock at $50O,OO0 in ten-dol-
lar shares, with privilege of increase
to one million. Emmet May was the
holder of 1850 shares, and ten shares
each were held by A. " Gear w. r.
Harrington, w. NJ. Minton and Thomas
f. Wall.
Three weeks after the Incorporation
the company sent notice of an increase
of capital stock to 5000, 900 and on July
Is, notice was sent to Treasurer Ke-
poikai, certified by Emmett May as sec
retary, that 5000 more shares had been
subscribed and paid for, making 100000
capital stock subscribed. of which $685.
900 had been paid up ten per cent of
the original fifty thousand having been
the sum subscribed at the time of the
Incorporation.
The company is said to have gone on
several important bonds and to be pre-
pairing TO do a considerable surety busi-
ness in connection with furnishing
bonds to incoming county officers.

Insurance Commissioner George
Smithies has sent letter to the Fidel-

the company comply with the law re-
garding the payment of capital or pro-

attention to wide differences between
the company's filed statement OF assets
and the real value of the property as
he computes it from taxation values
and stock sales. The law provides that
every company, before doing business
shall have at least fifty thousand paid
in in cash. This section is construed to
include available assets equal to $780,,

statement of apparent compliance. The
company's statement gives the follow
