SO congested a year ago. This has
been brought about through almost
continuous sessions of three judges
trying jury and other cases, and was
made possible mainly through legisla-
ton enacted by the last legislature. AS
a result, largely of the great number
of cases so tried in the first circuit
court, the calendar of the supreme
court has gained somewhat on that
court. There is reason to believe, how
ever, that this court and all the courts
of the Territory. will be up to date
in their work at no very distant time.
An additional court was added to
the courts of record of the Territory
by the last legislature, namely, the
court of land registration.
This court has been in operation dur
ing the past year, though thus far it
has had comparatively few cases.
Several much needed changes have
been made recently in the Courthouse
in Honolulu, especially in the construc-
ton of a vault for the records of the
Supreme Court and First Circuit Court,
and in the Encouragement of the clerks
offices and the library. There is need
of new courthouses in several of the
other circuits, the erection of which it
is hoped viii not be long delayed. Many
volumes have been added to the Su-
preme Court and Circuit Court libraries
during the past year.
The statistics of the judicial work of
the courts are made up for the calendar
years. 1t has been customary in the
past to prepare the summaries for pc
RODS of two years for the biennial ses-
sions of the Legislature. Hereafter
they will be prepared yearly. The fol-
lowing Will give general idea of the
number and character of the cases, both
civil and criminal, and the nationality
of the convicted in criminal cases.
There are, of course, some Implications.
owing to appeals from one court to
another, and in some instances to a
third court. In general there has been
a slight falling off in the number of
cases during the past year, as COM
pared with the number during the pre-
ceding two years.
Attorney General L-orrin Andrews has
this to say concerning matters in his
department:

A year ago there seemed to be a
growing sentiment that the number Of
the supreme court justices should be
increased to five. The increase in the
number of cases brought to that court
seemed to call for an increase in the
membership of the court in order to
enable il to keep UP with it's work.
but various changes that have taken
place in legislation and otherwise af-
ford ground for belief that this diff
Guilty will be overcome to some extent
at least in the near future. There are
other reasons, however which have not
been overcome, but which alone per-
haps might not at present be deemed
sufficient to require an increase in the
number of justices. A decision by a
bench of five is naturally more salts
factory than one from a bench of three
especially if one of the justices dis
sents. An increase to five would also
to some extent meet the argument for
allowing appeals in cases in which
Federal cases are not involved, or, if
such appeals should be allowed, it
would reduce the number of such cases
in which appeals would be taken. The
expense and delay that would result
from such appeals, owing. among
other things, to the distance from
Washington, or even from California.
is something that should be avoided as
far as possible.
The appropriations for salaries and
expenses in the judiciary department
have been reduced in line with the gem
eral policy of retrenchment in view of
the financial stringeney in the Terri
| tory, but it is doubtful if this will op-
crate to an appreciate extent in dim
inishing the efficiency of the Judiciary,
J although it will impose heavier bur

Costumes.

At this season Of the year our winter
garments seem specially in need os rem

Now that short shoulder cspes are so
much worn. plain serge or cloth gowns
can be made to look very smart by the
addition Of embroidered bands Of bright
hued cloth-on the fronts OF blouses and
capes. There is a certain shade OF brill

sp,endidly with navy serge. and when a
narrow edge OF mink FUR or caracul IS
added the most satisfactory effects may

of the same material--it is usual to keep
them rather short. just clearing the ell

Besides the fact that a well-cut cape
is n becoming little garment. there is
another thing TO be said IN its favor; it
gives a finished outdoor look TO a sim

need for anything in the shape Of a

For example, take a costume OF black
cloth. the short skirt pleated into a
