Load of Ferns Taken
From King Street
At Night.

Dray thieves are making life miser-
meant, not the men who steal drays,
but the thieves who call at your house
and carry away a whole wagon load of
goods without your consent Recently
a number of complaints have been
made of thieves who back a dray up
to a residence and steal heavy pots of
ferns and palms from the yard, or even
help themselves to the lanai furniture.
Not very long ago a couple of men
drove up to the residence of Rev. w.
NJ. Kincaid on Thurston avenue at
night and began carrying furniture on
to the lawn. The family of Mr.. Kin
caid is away at present, and he has
been staying down town at a hotel.
Only a Chinese is left in charge of the
residence, and when the thieves were
demonstrated with by the boy, they
explained that they had been told by
Mr.. Kincaid to bring furniture from
the house to the hotel for his room.
bring writing on paper the Chinese
boy replied, and the men after wasting
a little more time in argument drove
off, leaving their plumber undisturbed.
a few nights ago also, a dray was
backed up to the A. f. Cooke residence
on King street, which is now occupied
by tenant, and carried away half a
dozen heavy palms and ferns from the
he fa ia
police, but the plants are still missing.
number of similar thefts of potted
palms and ferns are said to have oc-
CURED in the suburbs but have not
been reported to High Sheriff Brown.
The police have been asked to bring
all loaded drays found on the streets
after dark to the police station for in
vestig3tion, unless satisfactory expla-
nation can be made for the carting Of
valuable goods after dusk. In this
way it is hoped that the dray thieves
can be prevented from further plum
dering in the residence districts.

THE FIGHT FOR
SUPREME COUR7

The Bar Association will hold a meet
ing on April 5th for the purpose of
considering the question of recon-
mending and endorsing three members
of the Bar of this Territory to the
President of the United States and At
torney General for appointment to the
offices of Chief Justice and Associate
Justices of the Supreme Court of this
Territory"
The call is made at the written re-
quest of eleven members and is said
TO have been engineered by G. A
Davis, recently disbarred by the Su-
preme Court, and who is now trying to
get even. The plan to displa e the
present members of the court is also
said to be aided by other attorneys.
The proposed ticket, however is ex-
ceedlngly strong. 1t calls for the rec
ommendation of A S. Hartweu for
chief justice, and of H. E. Cooper and
f. NJ Hatch for associate justices.
Judge Highton, Judge De Bolt and
Judge Robinson are all reported as
candidates to succeed Justice CAL
braith, and if the Bar Association de-
cides to pass upon the publications of
all names presented it will have a deli
cate matter to handle.

SO YONG PASSES
HIS EXAMINATION

So Yong passed his examination for
the lower courts bar with flying col
ors. 1t is said the committee put him
through strict PAGES, including a stiff
test in Blackstone. The young Chi
nese lawyer intends pursuing his stud
les with a view to applying for license
in the higher courts. In it's report,
which here follows, the committee ex-
presses its approval of the system Of
examination initiated by Judge De
Bolt:
To the Honorable J. T. De Bolt, First
Judge of the First Circuit
The undersigned having been APP
pointed by your Honor as a committee
to examine into the qualifications of
Mr.. So Yong to practice in the District
Courts of this Territory and before the
Circuit Judges at chambers on appeal,
beg to report that they have carefully
examined Mr.. So Yong and find him
duly qualified for such practice. They
therefore recommend that his license
be renewed as requested.
They wish further to express, as
members of the bar, their entire belief
in the system of referring such cases
to committees of lawyers, believing
that thereby the best interests of the
profession can be subserved. In the
opinion of your committee it has here
tofore been entirely too easy to obtain
licenses for the practice in question,
and a fairly strict examination therefor
is for the benefit of both the legal pro-
fesSion and clients

BREEDING ToRToIsEs.

An enterprising Mexican has rented
lake in the Island of Cozumel, off the
east coast of Yucatan, from the Next
Gan government for the purpose of
breeding the sheli-producing tortoise,
Sald expects to make a fortune. He
@ys 800 a year for ten years. The
tortoise lives to a great age, and its
growth is nearly as slow as its move
m Nts. Its shell consists of thirteen
pleses, which are surrounded by twen-
ty-five smaller plates as a protective
margin. AS new layer of horny sub
stance is produced each year. a plate
at its exposed edge marks the age of
the animal. Tortoise-shelI in the arts
and for use as combs is coming into
favor again, notwithstanding its easy
imitation in celluloid.
