SAMOANS CLING TO
THE CUSTOMS OF
ANCESTORS
Attempts Of Military Author
tiles to Abolish Objection
able Usages of No Avail,
as Habits of Generations
Cannot Be Changed.

Reports from officers in the Pacific
to the war department at Washington
continue to reveal strange conditions.
A report received from the command
ant of the naval station at Samoa,
gives some startling facts concerning
the customs of our new fellow citizens,
throwing some light upon their moral
characteristics. Many of the customs
were so objectional that efforts were
made by the military authorities to
abolish them, but the habits and usages
to which a race has been accustomed
for centuries cannot be eradicated by
military regulations, or, indeed, by any
human power.
The report states that the natives
have returned to their customs in
spite of the regulations intended to
abolish them. Among other customs
to which the natives have returned is
the malaga" which induces a whole
village to go on a visit and remain for
days, weeks, or months, eating their
friends out. Another of the abolished
customs is that of giving fine mats at
weddings, funerals, etc.
Want Right to Separate.
In one village a law was passed
making it a misdemeanor to get mar
ried "Faa- Samoa" which method of
marriage allows a young man and
woman to agree to the union, and if
at the end of a week, month, or a
longer period, either wishes to be
separated each may go his or her way
with no disgrace attaching to either.
After this was on the statute books a
year the younger element prevailed and
the law has been repealed
The report states that other old
customs which has existed for gener-
atoms and with which the authorities
find it difficult to cope is the right of a
chief who has re children by his wife
to ave with some other woman. A
case of this kind was brought to the
notice of the commandant by lead
ing missionary. A man whose wife
was living but who had gone away
made an alliance of this kind. The
man wanted to join the church but the
missionary would not receive him I'M
less he became divorced from his wife
and married the other woman. The
wife had made no complaint and there
was no application for a divorce The
missionary reported that the natives
were fond of quoting in their defense a
passage, says the cOmmandant, where
Abraham, or some other Biblical char
acter had done the same thing"
The commandant adds: cit would
be useless for the commandant to
arbitrarily order such practices to
cease. He could not enforce the order.
The climate makes it an easy matter
to bring up children as they rear them;
food is abundant.
Time" he continues, "and I am
afraid very long time will be re-
quired to get the natives to see that
they are wrong in such matters. In
the meantime efforts are being made to
help them and an improvement in some
ways is evident

WAS A ROUGH HOUSE,
THE POLICE TESTIFY
Saloon Riot Furnishes Jennie Mcmahon
and c. Gerber Brief Stay at Works.

Jennie Mcmahon, whose parents run
a saloon at i Exchange and st. Peter
streets, was sent to the Workhouse
for thirty days yesterday, and Charles
Gruber, who is said to nave started a
fight in the resort Friday night, drew
ten days.
AS a result of the fight started by
Gruber, several people became involved
and when a crowd which had been at
tracted to the place by the fighting
went inside, the bartender, William
Feeney, is said to have driven them out
at the point of a revolver.
When the police entered the place
Mary Anderson, one of the party, was
stretched across a chair, with the
greater portion of her clothing torn
from her, and the room was a wreck.
Tables were overturned, chairs upset,
lamps smashed and bottles scattered
in profusion about the rooms. In po-
lice court yesterday all of the parties
were discharged except Gruber and
Jennie Mcmahon, who were charged
with being responsible for the riot.
When the hearing was finished Will
liam Feeney and Harry Logan, who
had given some damaging testimony
against Jennie Mcmahon, appealed to
the court for protection from
Frank Mcmahon, the proprietor
of the saloon, whom they said had
secured a gun and threatened to kill
them when they left the court house.
Both of these men were trembling and
were badly scared, and City Prosecutor
Keller accorded them his personal pro-
lection in -escorting them from the
building

FREDERICK BANHOLZER
DROPS DEAD ON STREET
Seized With Apoplexy and Expires in
Few Minutes.

AS the result of an apopletic stroke,
Frederick Banholzer, an old resident
of st. Paul and pioneer in the North
west, died suddenly yesterday morn
ing.
For years Mr.. Banholzer had been in
the habit of taking a corning walk,
and while walking towards West Sew
enth street, on Warsaw street, he was
suddenly seized with the stroke, from
which he in few moments expired. He
was taken into the hotel at the cor
ner of Warsaw and Seventh and a
physician Immediately summoned. but
he never sfegained consciousness. At
ter Coroner Miller viewed the remains
the body was removed to the home of
Mr.. Banholzer's daughter, Mrs. Ursula
Widman $50 Stewart avenue.
Mr.. Banholzer was seventy nine
years of age and came to the United
States from Wurtemburg, Germany, in
1S49. With his family he engaged
in business in Buffalo, N. Y, Michigan
City, Ind, and Rockford, H., coming
to st. Paul in 1856. He engaged in
the contracting business here and
erected many of the first stone build
ings in ST. Paul, among which are
the old Grand opera house building on
Wabasha street, and Christ church.
Shortly after coming to St. Paul Mr..
Banholzer built the building now
known as Banholzer's brewery for
Bensberg & Co., the building being
originally built to be used as dis
tillery. Later he purchased the prop
erty and conducted a brewery there
for many years. He turned the brew
cry over to his son, William Banhol-
ger, about fifteen years ago and re-
tired from active business life. Ban
holzer's park, very popular as a pic
mic resort years ago, was conducted by
him.
His son, William Banholzer, who
died about five years ago, was a prom
inent business man of this city and was
for several terms a member Of the
common council and also a member of
the board of public works.
Frederick Banholzer leaves surviving
him daughter, Mrs. Ursula Widman,
with whom he has lived for the past
ten years.
The funeral will be held Monday af-
ternoon at 2 o'clock from the residence
of his daughter.

CHANGE BREAKFAST.
Habit Of Healthy Europeans.

The sturdy Scotch, German, French
and Italians seldom or never eat meat
for breakfast.
Long experience has taught that the
breakfast should be simple and not in
clude meat.
Many Americans suffer with weak
stomachs and more or less illness be-
cause they fail to understand the sim
pie and healthful plan of a breakfast
somewhat like the following:
A little fruit
dish of Grape Nuts and cream.
One or two soft eggs.
A cup of Postum Food Coffee and
perhaps piece of hard toast.
A man says, Il couldn't go on that
until noon."s M
One or two days trial will teach him
a big volume Of facts and make him
feel eft as lord.'' There is a deep
underlying and scientific reason. The
best argument, however, is the actual
experience with such breakfasts.
