BAD USAGE
OF A WIFE

Tsune Nakamura has brought a bill
Tor maintenance against her husband,
Kojima Nakamura, and Judge Gear has
made an order to the respondent to show
cause why he should not pay alimony
and an attorneys fee to the complain
ant.
1t is pitiful story of bad usage the
wife tells. She was married to Kojima
only on February 20 of this year, the
same day that she arrived in Honolulu
from Japan. The couple went to Kona,
Hawaii, to live and returned to Homo
lulu about the first OF August Since
August IL they have lived separate and
apart. Petitioner declares that ever
since their marriage she has demeaned
herself toward respondent as a loving
and dutiful wife, but he has treated her
in an extremelv cruel and infuman
manner" of which she gives instances.
In kona on July I she says respond
ent did, in cruel and nhuman fashion.
tie the hands of petitioner behind her
back and did refuse to release her from
the bonds confirming her during the whole
of said night thereby causing petitioner
great physical suffering; that while petit
toner was so tied and in helpless con-
dition respondent did beat and strike her
with his fists, and did threaten to kill
petitioner"
On July 7 she saws respondent beat
her with stick, cruising and discolor-
ing her body. She left him on August
"a and went to live with relatives in
Honolulu, and this is what she declares
happened on the 10Th: Respondent,
without provocation or excuse, because
enraged and infuriated at this petition
er, and did strike and beat her with his
fists, and did again threaten to kill petit
toner unless she returned to live with
him" After that she may be believed
in saying that she was and is now in
great bodily fear of respondent and does
not think it safe to remain or live with
him
Kojima Nakamura is represented by
his complaining wife as being the owner
of coffee plantation worth $1,000 in
Kona and having $500 of uninvested
cash. Therefore she considers he ought
to pay the costs of her suit, together
with reasonable attorneys fee, and $40
a month for her maintenance. Z. M.

transmission of much longer distanced
messages than on the Atlantic side. In
fact 1t would seem that the dream of
General Oscar +. Long, formerly in
charge of the Pacific transport service,
is about to be realized. Two years ago
General Long hit upon the idea of
transmitting messages from the Faral-
lon islands to ship half way to the
Hawaiian group; from thence to Homo
lulu; from the latter port to a ship
half the way to Manila, and from that
point to the islands. 1t would seem
that this scheme might easily be re-
allied with the new thousand-mile in
struments which will transmit half the
way to Honolulu.
According to those best posted on the
subject of wireless telegraphy there
are two notable difficulties which must
be overcome before direct communica-
ton from the Farallon islands to Ho-
nolulu can be effected. First more
powerful instruments must be made,
and secondly an elevation must be OBJ
tanned great enough to overcome the
curvature of the earth and permit
reasonably space between the line of
tTdHSlnlSSlOn ana tne surface OIL tne
sea. In addition to the natural eleva-
ton at the southwestern Faralon the
new station will have a mast one hun
dred and fifty feet high.
The possibilities of wireless tele-
graphy cannot be overestimated," said
Admiral Whiting of the Goat Island
Naval Station yesterday. 1.-TWO years
ago we were astounded when messages
We're sent a distance of twenty Eight
miles. Now we are sending them for a
thousand miles between Panama and
various other points on the Eastern
coast. / do not believe that the new
instruments which are to be installed
at the Farallon islands will transmit
much over 1000 miles, but the past has
proved that we may expect great
things in the future. The new station
will be of great value to the navy of
the Pacific. The enemy may cut our
cables. but there is no knife that will
sever the path of the wireless. Mer-
chant vessels will also profit by the
and may send signals of
distress while hundreds of miles from
land. I cannot say when the new sta
ton will be completed, but it will prob
ably be in the near future"

RACED FOR
LIP1oN CUP

OF interest to yachtsmen of the Pa
cific is the series of races closing yes
terday for the Sir Thomas Upton Chal-
lenge cup held by the Corinthian Yacht
Club of San Diego, California and open
to challenge by yachts of the thirty
foot class While this is the first year
that the races have been held the event
promises to become the premier yacht
ing event of the Pacific. The chal-
lengers this year are the sloops Venus,
Marie and Mischief, all flying the flag
OF the South Coast Yacht Club of Los
Angeles and the Detroit, owned by
"A syndicate of San Diego capitalists
and sailing under the colors of the
San Diego Yacht Club. The sloop
yachts Estrela and Nackey of the
Corinthian Yacht Club defend the
trophy. The Detroit is a racing ma
chine, pure and simple and was built
on the Great Lakes. With smooth
weather she is the favorite. OF the Los
Angeles boats the Marie has been do
ing the best work in the preliminary
trials.
The races We're TO be sailed off the
Coronado shore and preparations were
made for thousands of spectators. Unit
ed States war vessels were to patrol
the course and keep excursion boats
away from the racers. The trophy is
one of the most magnificent ever raced
for and was presented to the Corin-
thians by Sir Thomas Upton about a
year ago. II is of solid silver, embel-

FROM COAST TO ISLANDS BY
NAVAL WIRELESS TELEGRAPH

SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. THE an
nouncement that the Navy Department
| is preparing to erect and equip a long
distance wireless telegraphy station at
Farralon islands has aroused great in
terest, not only in naval circles, but
among Pacific coast shippers. The
station is already under way of con-
struction, and when 1t is completed it
will be possible to transmit messages
for more than 1000 miles in any direc-
ton. Naturally the opportunity to
signal and converse with ships 1000
miles distant will be the principal ad
vantage of the new station. How
much farther the instruments will
transmit than the distance named re-
mains for experiment to show. The
Eastern manufacturers who are max
ing the instruments guarantee them-to
transmit 1000 miles at least.
The new station is 70 be located at
the Southeast Farallon, a distance of
about thirty miles from the Goat is
land station and 2,1S0 miles from Ho-
nolulu. The mast for the new station
has been completed and now lies in the
Mare island construction yard await
ing orders which will send 1t to the
islands. This will probably be when
the instruments are completed and for
warded from the East.
The Farallon station will be the only
one of it's kind on the Pacific coast.
Heretofore the longest transmission of
messages by Western stations has been
less than 100 miles. The new instru-
ments will be duplicates of those now
used between San Juan and Panama,
a distance of 1000 miles. Not only will
the new station be of great benefit to
the navy in time of war, but it will in
the future be of great assistance to the
merchant liners. Marine experts say
that the day will come when all mer-
chant ships will be fitted with wireless
wireless apparatus. In this event
wrecked vessels or ships in
any way distressed within 1000
miles of the Farallon islands may
telegraph for assistance. Delayed ships
may explain the cause of their tard-
ness while whole days from port.
The possibilities of long distance
station on the Pacific Coast seem un-
limited. There are experts who state
that the difference in climatic condi-
tons on this coast will enable the

DOR|C OFF FOR
THE ORIENT

The sailing of the Occidental and ORR
entail liner DoriC from the Hackfeld
wharf yesterday was one of the pref
test pieces of steamship maneuvering
that has been witnessed for some time.
Exactly AT o'clock the gang plank fell
with a crash and seemingly by the
same impulse the big liner began, al
most imperceptibly at first, then with
gathering momentum, to slide back
along the dock into the stream. AT the
precise instant that the gang plank fell
the big recall nag at the foremost
head slid down the halyards and the
Stars and Stripes broke out from a lit
tie ball of bunting AT the masthead.
The whole process was done SO easily
and gracefully that II drew admiration
from the spectators on the dock.

pulled out was a little group of Ameri-
can missionaries on their way tu the

tiohed therein and WILL of course, give
you my hearty cooperation.

of the proper Territorial officials an
itemized statement of the moneys ex-
pended on the lighthouses and buoys
with the expense of maintenance from
June Il. 1900 and to furnish affidavits
as to the vouchers, which I deem it
would be improper for the Auditor to

procedure will be taken in reference
to the money that was expended by the
Territory of Hawaii in dredging the

The data in the hands of the Depart
ment of Public Works in reference to
the harbor improvements is not in the
shape that you desire. BY this mail l
am forwarding to the Secretary of War
request that he authorize Lieutenant
Slattery to make n project for the i'm
provement of this harbor, which can be
done owing to the data we have in our
possession, without cost to the War De-
partment If this is granted, as soon
as 1t is prepared I shall take pleasure
in informing you of the fact. The
project itself l presume will be sent to

Trial StartIes the Court.

Trial StartIes the Court.
NEW YORK, Dec. Al expect to
show that the killing of Caesar Young
was a preconcerted plan laid by this
defendant and by ]. Morgan Smith
and his wife. l will prove this by evil
dence. 1.5
81 don't expect to show that Smith
was an aceomplice in the killing of
Caesar Young, but that he was an ac-
complete to a plan to wrong Young and
that the plan went beyond his calcula-
tons and Young was killed.
''The theory of the prosecution,
which l am compelled now to disclose,
is that Caesar Young was a victim of
a conspiracy"
These statements, made by Prosecu-
tor Rand just before the closing in the
trial Of Nan Patterson. created Il great
sensation in the courtroom. They were
made in the presence of the defendant,
but the jury had been excused for the
day.
Realism reached its most sensational
point in the trial when a manikin,
dressed with the identical clothes worn
by Young on the morning of the trag-
edy in which he lost his life, was pro-
Nuced in court to the accompaniment
a nervous spell which caused the
Asmer "Florodora" girl to cling to her
1urier's hand ~
On the manikin's breast, just two
inches below the collar bone and in
line with the second rib, where, DR..
O'Hanlon had testified, the bullet
plowed its way, a small aperture and
a faint crimson stain could be seen by
the jurors.
AS DR.. Phelps, the revolver expert,
who was testifying when the weirdly
dressed figure was brought into the
courtroom, pointed to this stain, Nan
Patterson's face took on the express
sion of a woman in a trance. The
faint glow that had survived her pris-
on pallor when she entered the court
room earlier in the day changed to an
