THE BRIGHT SIDE

of life. 1t is feeling common
to the majority Of US that we
do not get quite the amount of
happiness we are entitled to.
Among the countless things
which tend to make us more or
less miserable i'll health takes
first place. Hannah More said
that sin was generally to be at
tributed to biliousness. No doubt
a crippled liver with the result
ing impure blood, is the cause of
more mental gloom than any
other single thing. And who
can reckon up the fearful aggre-
gate Of pain, loss and fear a
rising from the many diseases
which are familiar to mankind;
like a vast cloud it hangs over
a multitude no one can number.
You can see these people every
where. For them life can scarce
ly be said to have any "bright
side" at all. Hence the eager
ness with which they search for
relief and cure. Remedies like
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
have not attained their high po-
sition in the confidence Of the
people by bald assertions and
Boosting advertisements. They
are obliged to win it by doing
actually what is claimed for them.
That this remedy deserves it's
reputation is conceded. 1t is
palatable as honey and contains
the nutritive and curative prop
critics of Pure Cod Liver Oil,

Nothing has such a record Of
success in Scrofula, Influenza,

orders that tend to undermine
the foundations Of strength and

.SEAMEN SUE
THE |VANH0E
Damages Claimed
on Account Of
Cruelty.

A sensational libel in admiralty has
been filed in the United states District
Court against the British bark Ivan
hoe, whereof George w. Grant is. or
lately was, master, her tackle, apparel,
furniture, boats and appurtenances,
and against all persons lawfully inter-
vening for their interest therein. The
libellants are w. B. Dyer, A. Anderson,
]. II. Bayer and v. A. Bitner, who de-
clare that each Of them is a citizen Of
the United States and a mariner by &C.
cupation. Attorneys A. S. Humphreys,
A. H. Crook and ]. j. Dunno are proc
tors for libellants.
1t is set forth that the home port
of the Ivanhoe is London, England,
and that during all the times mention
ed In the libel George w. Grant was
master of the bark. About June rs,
1903, the Ivanhoe was lying in the port
of Port Townsend, State of Washing
ton, destined for a voyage therefrom
to the port of Iquique, Chill, or any
port or ports in Australia, New Zea-
land, India, China, or any port or ports
in the Pacific Ocean, and return to
final port of discharge in the United
States (Hawaiian Islands eXcepted) or
British Columbia, the voyage not to
exceed two years.
Dyer and Anderson were shipped as
able seamen at $50 a month, and Bayer
and Btner as ordinary seamen at
$3.50 month. until the termination
OF voyage. They allege that during
y.hp of . hn ~
did we'll and truly perform his duty,
and was obedient to all the lawful
commands of the master as well as OF
the chief mate and second mate of the
vessel. They go on to say:
THAT the aforesaid contract of
hiring and employment above referred
to is now wholly terminated by rea-
son of the constant, repeated and gen.
eral cruelty. inhumanity and ill-usage
exercised and exerted by the officers
of said bark. upon and toward these
libellants. and each of them. And in
this behalf, these libellants show that
ever since said bark departed from
said port of Port Townsend, at fire.
quent recurring intervals, these libel
lants were, and each of them was. sub
jected to cruel and inhuman treatment
by said officers of said bark; that said
libellants We're. and each of them was,
repeatedly and Systematically beaten
and kicked. and continually subjected
to vile and profane language and
abuse by said officers of said ship.
"These libellants show that they are
not able to state with particularly all
the precise times and occasions when
they, and each of them, We're so beaten
and abused, for the reason that said
cruelty and abuse was continuous and
recurrent; and in this be-
half these libellants show that so bru-
tai was the treatment of the crew Of
said bark, by the officers thereof, that
upon the arrival of said bark at said
port of Iquique one of said crew pre-
ferred to commit suicide, and did in
fact commit suicide, rather than con-

honolulu Beer in South Seas.

The Hawaii and South Seas Curio
Company has introduced the local beer
in ME South Seas. The following item,
taken from the Samoanische-Ze itung,
an English-German newspaper of Apia
Samoa, shows how the industry is be-
ing started there: our readers Will
observe that Mr.. Chas. Roberts Of the
Apia Hotel advertises in another col
umn that he is the sole agent for the
Honolulu Brewing and Mailing Co.,
Ltd. We have sampled the beer that
he imports from that company and can
confidently recommend it,"

tinue any longer in the service of said

tinue any longer In the service OF sara
bark.
THESE libellants further show that
the treatment which they, and each OF
them. received during the passage from
said Iquique to the port of Honolulu
was not so cruel or inhuman as the
treatment they received between said
Port Townsend and said Iquique; but.
in this behalf. these libellants show
that the chief mate of said bark fire.
quently threatened during said pas
sage from said Iquique to said port of
Honolulu. that upon the departure OF
said bark from Honolulu he would
resume the cruelty and inhumanity and
ILL usage to which said crew had been
subjected while on the passage from
said port of Port Townsend to said
Iquique, and threatened to continue in
said cruelty and inhumanity even to
the extent of taking the lives of more
than one of said crew. And in this
behalf, these libellants show that, by
reason of said cruelty, inhumanity and
ill-usage, by reason of the aforesaid
suicide of q member of said crew, and
bv reason of the aforesaid threats of
aforesaid chief mate of said bark. they
are, and each of them is. in fear and
dread for their lives should they con-
tinue said voyage in said bark"
Proceeding with their declaration, the
libellants give as the reason for the
comparative moderation of the crews
ill-treatmen. between Iquique and Ho-
nolulu the fact that the captains wife
was on board In n very sickly condi-
ton and died shortly before the vessel
arrived at this port. Now they say
that the death of the captains wife has
removed from the officers of the bark
the one influence which at all re-
strained said officers of said ship from
inflicting upon these libellants, and
others of the crew of said ship, beatings
and woundings which would menace
life and limb"
They claim that by reason of breach
of contract arising from their ill-treat-
ment they have been compelled to
abandon the vessel at Honolulu, after !
having served about seven and a half |
months and while about sixteen and a |
half months of the contract is unex-
pired.
Dyer and Anderson claim S156.6i as
wages due each. while Bayer claims
s1l3.34 and Bitner s11S.S4. They also
claim damages, which with wages
amount to s45S.72 each for Dyer and
Anderson. sS95.16 for Bayer and s4OO.16
for Bitner. together with such expen-
1itures as they are compelled to make
pending this litigation.
Under the rules the Ivanhoe cannot
be seized until some time today, the
libel having been filed yesterday after
noon.
There may be fine points arise in the
case, owing to the British ownership of
the vessel No criminal action could
be brought for this reason, as the
United States penal statutes referring
TO cruelty to sailors apply only TO
American ships.
1t is stated that one of the Ivanhoe's
ulcers, however, did time in Oahu pris-
on for such an offense, being the man
whom Turk IL Lewis for Il while con-
:ealed.

The meeting OF the w. c. +. u. yes
tcrday afternoon was attended by less
than half a dozen members, and the
business portion of the meeting was
therefore very informal. The president
Mrs. ]. NJ. Whitneymannourccd that it
was Willard day, day observed by
every w. c. T. U. organization in
memoriaizing the departed leader, Miss
Willard.
Mrs. Whitney read few of Miss
Wizards most pertinent remarks on
temperance and gave some data concern
ing the w. c. T. U. movement in
general.
1t was reported that the plan for plac-
ing a w. c. T. U. drinking fountain at
the General Union church corner was
progressing, and the cost has been cs-
timated at SIS.
One OF the members, previous to the
meeting, exhibited an endless chain"
card, ostensibly relating TO movement
against the cigarette habit The mem
Der stated that her attention had been
recently called to this special chain on
the ground that it was spurious and had
so advised the lady who had sent her
a card urging her to notify four of her
friends, etc. The card was as follows:

A crusade started by John S. Kennedy, lawyer,

ated a sensation there. Nj Kennedy became active
