The Dignity Of the eenate.

At times even the staid and digni-
fled United States Senate becomes q
trifle disorderly. This is usually the
case when debate becomes transformed
into personal colloquies. At such times
the presiding officer is ignored, the
members exchanging sharp remarks
from their chairs. Then it is that Mr..
Frye. vice president pro TEN, calls
Senator Pettus to the chair. The old
gentleman from Alabama soon has his
colleagues back in good order Mr.. Pet
tus will not allow one senator to in
terrupt another without first address
ing the chair and through the presid-
ing officer obtaining the consent OF the
senator entitled to the floor. A running
debate is very difficult under such con-
ditions and the colloquies are inter-
spersed by Interruptions of the chair,
who declares first one and then an
other senator out of order. The AL
ALBANIA senator performs this duty with
such an air of gravity and an evident
desire for decorum that no senator can
take offense. On such occasions as
these Senator Frye takes a seat in the
Senate and enjoys the discipline being
administered.

NEW REGULATIONS
FOR THE POLICE

The new rules and regulations for
the guidance OF the police were
distributed to the force Saturday.
Deputy Sheriff Rawlins met the
afternoon relief at noon in the
dormitory ana explained to them that
they are to study the rules thoroughly
and an examination on the same will
be held every six months. Suspension
for two weeks without pay is the penal
ty for not being up in them.
For the benefit of the Hawaiian
members who are not proficient in Eng
fish, Hawaiian translation will be
made. The deputy will be available
three times a week from to o'clock
to explain any sections of the rules
which the men may not understand.
The effort OF the hish sheriff and the
deputy will be to place the entire force
on a metropolitan basis.
Another feature will be that when a
man comes off duty he will fill out
blank in which he is to state what, IL
any, arrests he made, or whether he
witnessed any accidents or sent any
one to the hospital. In short, he is to
report anything unusual that may &C.
cur along his beat.

THE GIANT STINGRAY
LIVES BUT A DAY
It Cannot Stand the Company Of a Big
:. Shark That is too Foolish
to Eat.

II think that shark look more better
now. Maybe he live one more month"
A small brown boy stood on one bare
brown foot at the door of the aqua
rum. slowly rubbing his other foot
up and down the calf of his bare,
brown leg, and looked up wistfully in
And Potter agreed with him, The shark
has now lived for more than six weeks
without food. and seemed bit livelier
yesterday than for week or two past.
The small brown boy was the son OF
the Jap who catches sharks for the
aquarium, and he had vivid interest
in the life of the fish. He didn't care
whether the shark ate. He wanted the
fish to die. Indeed, If it does not die
pretty soon, there will be a chance
that the boy will not eat. And, If you
have ever been a boy yourself, of any
color, you will understand what that
means.
Wherefore the boy goes out to the
Aquarium and watches the big fish with
hungrier eyes than the shark itself has.
AS for the shark, 1t really seemed TO
have been stimulated by the placing in
its tank of the big stingray Saturday
night. Maybe the scare that II got, for
t., IL 90 81, s,,t,
served to revive its waning vitality.
The stingray, on its part could not
stand the association at all. 1t was
placed in the tank with the shark,

its broad fins like kind of gigantic
bat, inspecting the place, and then
came TO the surface. turned over on
its back and died. 1t was stretched out
on the wall in the sun yesterday after
noon, and in few hours began to
smell as badly as it looked. And that
was pretty bad.
The fish was, in many important par
ticulars. radically different from the
stingray that is so common along the
California coast. 1t had two long.

MATTERS IN COURT

The jury in the Barnhart VS.. Rapid
Transit Co. $4,000 damage suit went up
form their hotel Saturday morning and
reported to the court and all concerned
that they had not agreed on a verdict.
They were willing to be held to consid-

stated that they stood to 3. Judge De
Bolt discharged the jury and ordered a
mistrial to be entered. At an informal
conference of court and counsel on
Friday night, the jury being out, Mr..
Wilmington for the defendant said he
would not join in a stipulation or any
thing less than a unanimous verdict.
In the Jones murder trial Saturday
the defense put in a letter from de-
PENDANT to his wife begging her to be
reconciled to him and drop here pro-
ceedings for divorce. 1t was written
six weeks before he killed her. The
letter was published soon after the
tragedy. A cross question by Mr..
Peters to Cross, who had resumed the
stand from Friday, asking If he con-
sidered that Jones, at the time witness
testified he worked along with him,
knew the difference between right and
wrong, was objected to and ruled out
by the court after prolonged argument.
Mr.. Peters contended that the question

be deceived. That there are cheats
and frauds in plenty everybody
knows; but it is seldom or never
that any large business house is
guilty Of them, no matter what

can be no permanent success of

that are simply fools and soon

TAKING ANOTHER NAME.
Nothing In the Law That Prohibits
Making n Change.

Milking II Change.
Custom has made it almost univer-
sal for all male persons to bear theN
names of their parents" said an Mt
tache of the local court the other
morning. 1T seems natural that 1t
should be SO. Nevertheless there is
nothing In the laws of this country
prohibiting mans taking another
name, and no legal penalty is attached
to his doing so. There is always, how
ever. II possibility of its being attended
with Inconvenience and perhaps loss to
himself.
There Is way by which Il man
may change his name with the sanction
of the law, and that Is the only safe
way. But the law requires him to as
sign some good reason for the change.
Men have assigned various reasons for
wishing to change their names. Some
times man wishes to drop his right
name because 1t is of foreign origin
and difficult for an American tongue to
pronounce. This may injure him in
his business, rs there is such thing
as prejudice even in this free and
enlightened commonwealth; or his
name may have in English an absurd
or even vulgar meaning and subject
him to unpleasant jokes; or 1t may as
socinte him with some notorious crimi-
nal or be the counterpart of some name
which history made Infamous; or 1t
may be misspclled and consequently
mispronounced on his entry to this
country
Frequently infants are left orphans
or abandoned by the father after the
death of the mother In that case 1t Is
frequent occurrence for relatives or
neighbors to take Il child and adopt it,
giving 1t their own name In that case
the party desiring to adopt must apply
by written petition to the court of the
place in which he lives asking leave to
adopt the child and change Its name
to that of the petitioner. The order
allowing the adoption and the change
OF name must be fled with the court,
SO that the real percentage Of the child
may be subsequently established IL

when an adult applies for leave to
change his name he must give his place
Of birth. residence, age and whether
he is married or single and whether
there are any judgments against him
or outstanding commercial paper in the
name which he seeks to abandon, H
In any of these cases the court Is salts
fled there are no Objectionable reasons
the order is permitted granting
change of name The order must be
filed with the clerk, and thirty days
thereafter the new name may be as
sumed. The granting of the notice
must within ten days thereafter be
published in a newspaper designated
by the court
THUS the law protects the person
who for good and sufficient reasons de-
sires to assume name other than his
own. The order of the court being re-
corded, all the rights of the Individual
which may subsequently accrue to him
under his original name are preserved,
his identity being under the law fully
established. "-Washington Star.

This Old Portage road was construct

over experienced engineers to instruct
the Americans In the running of the
stationary steam engines used upon
the inclined planes Of the road in tho
Allegheny mountains. The railroads

is the highest point Of the Allegheny

they could be taken in sections and
hauled over tho mountain on fiat cars
without disturbing their cargoes. The
rails were secured to stone sleepers,
twenty inches square, which were sunk
in the ground.

time for the forty miles between Hol-
