Friday morning the attorney for the
defense asked to have the prosecuting
witness recalled. When she took the
stand he asked her if she could identify
Will higgins, who was present. She
identified him positively, and stated
that it was he who called at the room
in the lodging house with Boyd, the
night before the birth of the child. At
this point Mr.. Snively made the great

the witness untruthful by her own tes-

DAVIS SHUT OUT.

Judge De Bolt yesterday morning
rendered the decision of the Judges of
the First Circuit, signing it alone as
First Judge, 'in the matter of the petit
ton of George A. Davis for admission
to the bar of the Circuit Court of the
First judicial Circuit of the Territory
of Hawaii" 1t is in the words follow

BAsELESS APPEAL.
An appeal from Kauai has been dis
missed by the Supreme Court because it
Curiously enough the appellant is a
lawyer defending his OWN case. JUS
tice Galbraith writes the opinion of the
court, which is as follows:
"Assumpsit before the District Magis-
trate, at Lihue, Island of Kauai, for
balance claimed on account for lumber
and material sold and delivered by the
plaintiff to the defendant. Judgment
was rendered for the plaintiff in the
sum of $500, attorneys commission and
costs of court.
The defendant appealed to this court
on points Of law. Three points were
set out in the certificate, but two of
these are abandoned and the point re-
lied on is that the magistrate erred in
refusing to permit the defendants wit
ness, T. Onokea, to testify.
THE transcript of the evidence shows
that Tom Onokea testified as a wit
ness in the case. 1t does not appear
from the transcript or otherwise that
any testimony was offered and rejected
or that any witness was denied the
privilege of testifying on behalf of the
defendant If there was any error of
this character committed by the magis-
trate, during the course of the trial
there is no evidence of it in the record
No question of law is presented by this
point.
we have searched the record in vain
for some plausible ground for this APP
peal and are forced to the conclusion
that no meritorious excuse is presented
for the presence of this case in this
Court at this time.
The appeal is dismissed and the
cause is remanded to the District
Magistrate for such further proceedings
as may be necessary"

SMALL COMFORT
FOR BANDSMEN

Scant comfort was obtained by a
deputation of about half dozen stall
wart members of the Territorial band
who waited on Governor Carter yester-
day Their errand was to see if the
expenditure for salaries of the musf-
clans might not be maintained at the
old figure, notwithstanding that the
Legislature though presumed inadver-
tence had indirectly scaled down the
allowance in the eighteen months, bill,
by making it for a less number of mu-
sicians than before.
The bandsmen were informed by the
Governor that they would be fortunate
if even the reduced scale We're carried
out. While. for so popular an insti-
tuition, he did not feel justified in cut
ting out the band entirely. there was
a possibility that the Legislature. when
il next met, might abolish If as a dis
pensable luxury

KAUAI
EXPLOSION

LIHUE, Feb. 29.-Another dynamite
explosion took place last Sunday night
(21sD about L o'clock The scene was
the upper Waimea valley. A certain
japanese named Imura, who has a wife
and four children, received as visitors
that night three friends. About the
hour mentioned they were startled by a
loud explosion; the floor of the little
cottage was destroyed anu one man was
shot upwards. He, however, was not
hurt much, though he is suffering a
good deal from shock. There are no
external wounds, and there is every
prospect of an early recovery. 1t turns
out to be an accident however.
The question uppermost in the minds
of the public at this time is, how is
it that everyone can get his half dozen
or even his one stick of dynamite with
which to fulfill his cursed spite or to
be danger to his neighbors? Is there
not great negligence in the use of this
explosive?
In the case of the Glennan murder it
was recorded that the criminal simply
went to the tunnel in the evening and
procured the giant powder. Should it
not be stored away in safekeeping, in
accessible TO any but one who is re-
sponsible? A gentleman of experience
in work requiring the use of this ex-
plosive has informed us that he made
his men account at the end of the day
for every cap and stick of powder and
these We're carefully locked away in a
safe until needed.
Twice have we been warned not to
allow the explosive to lie convenient to
the hand of the degenerate or the in
experienced. We trust the doors will
now be safely closed and strict account
kept of every stick, cap and fuse.-The

the balance, s272, after which two pay
ments each of $50 were made, leaving
the $I72 now sued for unpaid.
The plaintiff testified that ''Tsen Vim

debt and promised TO pay $272. He
promised to pay and 1 accepted his re-
sponsibility for the amount" Whether
the magistrate ought 10 have found as
a matter of fact from this that there
was a complete novation the Supreme
Court states it does not need TO say
The matter is before il solely on the
question as TO whether the magistrate
was obliged to so find as a matter of
law. If Z. review of the findings OF fact
were desired, The appeal should have
been to the Giro lit Court. In the opin-
ion of the Supr eme Court the testi-
nony quoted was insufficient to require
the magistrate as a matter of law 10
find that there was a novation.
The law is stated in the syllabus as
follows:
AN action may be maintained on an
original partnership Indebtedness not
withstanding that one of the partners,
after buying out the others, has given
a note for the antecedent debt, unless
all the parties to both obligations
agreed that the note should operate as

THE BARKISES.

who shall be Mayor?," is
a question that is being con-
sidered by more than one of our
prominent citizens.
Apparently we have no candi-
dates for mayor as yet, but to "a
man up tree" as Walter Rogers
would say, there are several
prospectives in sight. It is be-
lieved in some quarters that the
present incumbent might be in
duced to stand for reelection,
and Alderman Hooker is accused
of having admitted that while
he would not go into a scramble"
he would not know how to refuse
to serve if unanimously chosen,
and some of Alderman Bowen's
friends put him in the same
category. Aid. Knapp has been
considered an eligible at least
for some time, with ex.alderman
Drew w. Paulk in the same boat.
Your Uncle Marcus Luke is not
to be over looked, and Major
Buice's friends are sure that he
will not be left out Of considera.
ton entirely. Mr.. E. n. Davis
who has recently returned to the
city from his northern domains
was discussed as a possibility
before z ing north several
months ago, but one of the
strongest probabilities is the
present Alderman-at-large, J. NJ.
Mosher, and if he gets in the
race there are people who believe
he will be opposed by ex-Alder.
man J. NJ. Mcdonald.
This does rot include all of the
prominent citizens of the city,
but about all of those who are
likely to be considered in connec.
ton with the mayoralty contest
at the DeCem Der election.
Fitzgerald enterprise. (Fitzgerald, Ga.) 1895-1912, 1904-10-20

John Robinson's circus yester-
day brought to the city more
people than was ever before in
Fitzgerald in one day.
The saloons and restaurants
did a great business and the
trade of the dry goods and gro.
gerry houses was considerably
better than the average day.
The weather was ideal and the
big show a great success. It is
not the biggest circus in the
world, but a good clean show,
well worth the price of admis-
sion. The trained seals, or sea
lions, we're the wonder and admi-
ration of the several thousand
patrons.
