A story concerning King Edwards first game of golf is told in The Court Circular and News. His majesty, then Prince of Wales, was attending classes in Edinburg university, when, escorted by Sir James G. Baird, he visited the links at Musselburgh. Tom Brown, a famous caddie of the older school car- ried the royal clubs, and on one of the greens his majesty gave the ball push, instead of a legitimate stroke. This was too much for the caddie, and Brown reproved his royal employer in the free language of his school. Sir. J. G. Bair thereupon informed the caddie that he must, be more guarded in his language, to which Tom, to the kings intense amusement, at once retorted, His royal highness must learn, for if he had done that in match he would have lost the hole''

The smart Japanese have already done great deal more than adopt western science. They have materially added to it. Hitherto their greatest success has been in bacteriology, a study demanding the utmost patience. manual dexterity and refinement of technique; and in the records of this branch of science they take rank only below France and Germany, and well in front of Great Britain. Their first conspicuous success was the discovery of the bacillus that causes lockjaw, which was made some years ago by Kitasato, and has already been the means of saving many lives from this disease by the use of an antitoxic serum prepared from the bacilli. Shiga dis covered the bacillus which is responsi- ble for the form of dysentery which is the scourge of armies.

FOR CONTEMPT

The Mutual Telephone Company and
superintendent Lehigh were before
Judge Gear at noon today to answer
for contempt, for an alleged violation
of an injunction Issued last September
in the case Of S. NJ. Ballou VS.. the COM
pany. BallOu secured an injunction
restraining the company from inter
fering with his telephone service and
he claims now that they have interfered
by printing a telephone book that does
not contain his name and number, His
affidavit, on which the court issued an
order to show cause, contains the fol-
having allegations:
That the Mutual Telephone Com
pany, Ltd, defendant herein, has caus-
ed to be printed and circulated a tele-
phone directory bearing date March,
1904, and purporting to contain the
names and telephone numbers of all
persons using the telephone service of
the defendant company; that in said
telephone directory the name and tele-
phone number Of afiant was omitted

THE WIRELESS
AND THE SUBSIDY

The announcement is made that the
Wireless Telegraph Company is to be
required to maintain a regular and
open service as a condition of receiv-
ing its subsidy from the government.
Superintendent of Public Works Hollo-
way is arranging for daily test of
the service and each day the service is
interrupted will cost the company the
amount of its subsidy, or 1888 1-S per
day.
There have been other complaints
besides the failure to get messages
through when the Governor was on
Hawaii" said Holloway. 1--WE might
have overlooked that for the storm
would interrupt almost anything. The
law is very indefinite in its terms re-
garding conditions of payment. 1t fails
to say anything about maintaining the
service and seems to only require the
company to made some changes of
poles, but certainly the company will
have to give service before it is paid
the subsidy"
The January subsidy has not been
paid yet, Superintendent Holloway hav-
ing so far refused to approve a voucher
for $1,000 The superintendent stated
this morning that he could not say
yet what would be done. 1 will see
how the service is" he said when ask
ed regarding the January subsidy.
The company did not begin receiving
its subsidy until October, and before
the first voucher was paid, Henry L.
Cooper then superintendent of Public
Works, made investigation and salts
fed himself that the requirements Of
the statute appropriating the subsidy
had been complied with. Another test
was made when Holloway became Sup
erintendent of Public Works and was
called on to approve the vouchers.
The company has spent over $4,000 in
improvements and betterments, aside
from repairs, since the legislature pass
ed the subsidy. These Improvements
include land lines from Honolulu to
BARRIERS Point, and from Mahukona to
Hilo. The latter is about seventy-fve
miles in length. About fifteen miles
more will be built there connecting the
the new station at Puako with Hilo
The last storm damaged not only
the poles at Lahaina and at Kauai, but
the land line between here and Bar
ber's point, as it did the oahu Rail
ways line of telephone.

.LOST HIS RIGHI

Judge Dole gave a decision this morn
ing denying the application of Hans
Peterson to be naturalized as an Anne
rican citizen. Hans was a sailor and
lost his right to become a citizen, says
the decision, by serving on a foreign
vessel during his period of probation.
The decision is in part as follows
The applicant made declaration Of
intention to become a citizen of the
United States, August 9Th, 1900. Since
that time he has served under seven
different engagements on merchant
vessels covering nearly all of the time
from that date. One of these engage
ments, however, was on the ship Alta,
a Chilean vessel, which engagement
covered a period from April 4th, 1902 to
October 9Th 1902. The aggregate time
under such engagements was three
years one month and fourteen days.
Taking out the time of his engagement
on the Chilean vessel of six months
and two days, there is a balance Of
two years, seven months and twelve
days, representing his service under
articles on American ships.
The law requires three years SER
we vi bOelA u u a lAlNl CHANT CNSoGl VI
the United States subsequent to the
declaration Of intention to become a
citizen. 1t is clear that he has failed
in this condition of the Statute, even
though his aggregate time Of service on
American ships had been three years,
the break in such service of six months
on a foreign ship would probably be a
failure on the statutory condition.
The statute further requires the pro-
duction of the certificate of discharge
and good conduct during the three
years service. This applicant produces
three discharges and has failed to pro-
duce certificates of discharge for four
of such engagements one of which
was for a discharge from a coasting
steamer in regard to which it is con-
tended that no discharge is required
or given, ana one from the foreign ship
Alta. 1t is not necessary for me to de
eide whether the requirement for the
production of such certificates of dis
charge is merely directory or Is man
datory as l am of the opinion the APP
plication has failed through his SER
vice on the foreign ship, but it is
doubtful to me whether a sailor under
the statute can be admitted to citizen
ship without producing his certificates
of discharge for the whole period of the
three years steady service.
This application is therefore re-
fused

TO
LYNCH HIM

There was nearly a lynching yester-
day afternoon in EakaakO. Sol Kama
ana attacked a little native girl in a
very brutal manner. The cries Of the
child attracted the attention Of people
nearby and the man tried to escape.
He was pursued by various people and
finally captured.
There was the utmost Indignation felt
toward the man for his alleged crime
and threats to lynch him were heard.
In fact the crowd got a rope and tied #
into moose, intending to string the
man to the nearest telephone post.
Nigel Jackson was present and had
taken charge of the man and was able
TO prevent the lynching. The prisoner
was safely landed in the prison. The
defendant will probably be arraigned
before Judge Lindsay tomorrow on a
charge Of rape

COAST
MADE SAKI HERE

As the result of the establishment OF
a saki brewery in California the impor-
tation of that article at this port is
likely to fan off and the customs re-
ceipts be diminished to a considerable
extent At the present time saki Is
brought here from Japan and is ASSESS
ed as wine. The importers now have d
number of appeals to try and have the
article classified as beef beer
The internal revenue department has
classified the stuff, however, as beer and
licenses to brew the article have been
issued. An enterprising Japanese has
formed a company at Berkeley, Cali
fornia, and has been az work for some
months turning out the article. Sala
can be manufactured and put on the
market much cheaper than it can be
imported under tax as wine. -
The Alameda brought a good sized
consignment of the Berkeley sah last
Friday The consignment was Skinned
to order. 1t will probably be taken bv
various local dealers who will no doubt
make an effort to place it on the local.
market. If the Berkeley saki proves of
a good variety and takes the fancy of
the local Japanese there will UgoBably
be a big demand for it as IL will gpFab-
ably be sold cheaper than the imported
STUFF can be. In all probability some
local japanese capitalists may start a
saki brewery if they can secure the au-
thority from the Territorial govern
ment. ....

GEAR INQUIRIES
ABOUT JAIL RULES

Judge Gear had a lengthy inquiry
into Oahu Prison conditions this morn
ing, in the hearing of the petition of
Goto, for a writ of nabeas corpus. Co
to was sentenced to pay a fine of $3.50
or be imprisoned 300 days, for selling
liquor. without a license. During the
hearing Judge Gear freely expressed his
opinion that it is illegal to confne per-
sons convicted only of misdemeanors
in oahu Jail as the Jail is a penitenti-
airy for felons. A formal decision was
reserved until Wednesday, however,
in order to allow time for preparation
of an appeal.
High Sheriff Brown was called by
Deputy Attorney General Peters and
testified that the prisoners in Oahu
Prison are kept separated. classed as
felons and misdemeanants. "They eat
separately and are kept on opposite
sides Of the Jail yard, with guards in
the center between them" said Brown.
mo communication is allowed All do
practically the same work, but the fe-
Ions are in different gangs and under
different lunas. The felons are dressed
in stripes, while the other prisoners
wear blue DENIM" These were the only
differences between the two classes,
said Brown.
Under cross-eXamination by Cathcart
the sheriff denied that it was an alb
solute rule that all felons should be sent
to Oahu Prison. He said there were
some in the jails of the other islands
Judge Gear took a hand in the exam
nation of the sheriff and brought out
the fact that the distinctions made be-
tween the classes Of prisoners do not
exist in the laws and are only mat
ter of regulations made by the prison
commissioners. The judge said that all
the testimony was immaterial, as I'M
der the decisions of the United States
Supreme Court the only thing to be
considered was what might be done
with the prisoners under the law, and
not what actually was done. Under
the law" said the judge, the prison
commissioners if they choose may give
the same treatment to a man found
guilty of driving without light and
man convicted of rape or murder"
Gear asked some questions about a
Maui convict who was not sent to Ho-
nolulu and whether he had not been
kept ON Maui through favoritism. He
was serving an IS months sentence for
horse-stealing. Brown said that he was
a good man in the care Of horses and
that the Jail needed such a man and
had kept him as a trusty.
And allowed him to visit his homer
asked the judge.
The sheriff replied that some prison
ers We're allowed to make visits to their
homes for an hour, on proper occasions. !
Warden Henry testified to practically
the same rules in the prisons as We're
described by Brown. The judge pro-
duced reports made by Brown and Hen
ry for the Legislature, In which they
strongly objected to mixing prisoners
all In one jail but both the officers !
said they had been referring to keep !
ing hardened criminals and new hands
in crime together.

.OREGONIANS'
HARD LUCK

WAILUKU, Februry 27-The bis
Americana Hawaiian steamer "Orego-
nian arrived at Kahului yesterday
morning, after having taken on part
cargo of sugar at Hilo. No sooner did
she arrive than a heavy swell set in
the harbor, and shortly after the noon
hour, she hove anchor and again went
to lie outside to await more favorable
weather
The Oregonian lay outside the harbor
for two weeks without being able to
take much sugar, and from the strange
action of the harbor yesterday, they
are all wondering who is the Jonah on
the Oregonian.
1t was very calm at Kahului in the
morning when the steamer arrived, the
heavy seas setting in latter. During
the Oregonian's absence from Kahului
for the past week the weather as well
as the harbor was all that could be
desired. This morning the wind was
blowing a little from the South, and
heavy showers of rain fell; the sky
seems threatening, and it may be posi-
bic that the Oregonian may have to lie
outhide the harbor for a few days more
although the different plantations are
anxious to ahve their sugar shipped,
which is fast accommodating at Kahului,
and in the different warehouses.

TO ANNUL A DEED.

WAILUKU, February 27,-Attorney
N. w. Aluli arrived from Honolulu
by the Mauna Loa last night, to de-
fend Rev. J. e. Kekipi in a civil suit
which was brought in the Second Cir
cult court nearly there years ago, by
one Kahopewai Mia. The suit is to
set aside a deed. Most of the testi-
mony was taken two years ago. 1t is
alleged that Mia, now dead, was made
to sign deed while under the impress
sion that it was a mortgage. Rev. Ke-
kipi Is the head of the native Christian
Science church and at that time, a
meeting was held at Pauwela at which
the mode of raising funds for the cree
ito nof a church at Hamoa and a hos
pital at Pauwela was discussed. Mia
consented TO mortgage his property
consisting of a little over 10 acres of
land, and 1t was arranged that Kekipl
should carry on the negotiations. m
stead of so doing, so the principal wit
ness for plaintiff states, a deed was
made out, consideration being So and
Mia, while on his dying bed, was made
to sign this deed. A civil suit was
brought to set aside the deed. The
last witness was put on the stand this
morning, and Attornel Aluli moved to
dismiss the bill. The motion was
taken under advisement.
