CHAPTER V.

Though in the formation of our char
acter the influence of individuals can
not be doubted or denied, nevertheless
there are some persons born with pre-
disposition SO strong that it is difficult
to believe that. under any circum-
stances, that native vein would not
have asserted itself. Lord CASTOR was
of this kind and class. Even as a child
he was inquisitive, skeptical and eccen-
trio, doing things which were forbid
den, or, If too original to have been
contemplated, anticipated by the CEN
sure of others, when done, disapproved.
He had the awkward habit of asking
questions which could be easily an
swered and expressing opinions which
perplexed and sometimes shocked. New
ertheless he was favorite, and at first
universally so. and this was owing to
two causes-his good looks and his good
temper. Nothing could disturb the last
and his first glance fascinated. Still, 1t
was a lamentable fact that. in the long
run, he could not, as the phrase goes,
get on" with anybody. At q great
public school he was idolized, but it
ended by the authorities privately COM
municating with his father that they
thought. on the whole, it would be ad-
vantageous that his son should be
withdrawn from their control Not that
he ever did anything disgraceful, mean
or ignominious. or even committed vio-
lent or rebellious acts, but he was in
the habit OF circulating opinions which
injuriously affected the discipline of the
school. was In the habit Of reading and
advising others to read books which,
while affecting to be philosophical,
could not for a moment be tolerated, as
tending. in the opinion of the masters,
to the destruction Of morals and reli-
gion. What, however. brought affairs

notice of his motion was received with
contemptuous respect. But the feeling
was far otherwise when they had lis
tened to him. The old hands at once
recognized that this was a man who
would mount. and looked forward with
interest to the occasion when he might
deliver himself of some practical sub
ject. and not on such moonshine as
that with which he had favored them.
But here the old hands, as they often
do, made a mistake. There was a
great, though latent. fund of religion
ism in the House; much of 1t sincere.

HILO, March 3.-William H. Johnson,
a Hawaiian, was arrested on Tuesday
on complaint of Fish Inspector Her
ring and charged with fishing with
giant powder. Herring rode in a bus
with Johnson and several others and
noticed that the fish had been killed
with an explosive. When the men
started to leave the bur he placed
Johnson under arrest. He showed fight
but was gathered in by police after
running a short distance. A young
man by the name of Stubblebeen, who
was one of the party, was taken to the
station house, where he testified for the
government. Johnson was fined $40
and costs for using the powder and sl5
for carrying a deadly weapon.
Mike Lehuanui, prisoner engaged In
driving one of the garbage wagons, was
helped to some booze early Tuesday
morning and was relieved of his team
by policeman and taken to jail. 1t
is probable that Mike will be given
other employment during the remain
der of his sentence.
Fred c. Smith, superintendent Of the

TELLS OF OLD
Time RESIDENTS

The Hawaii Promotion Committee
has received a letter from a New Eng
land man which gives some interesting
data concerning old-time residents of
Honolulu. A portion of the letter says:
When l was a boy l used to hear
about your place often. A missionary
by the name of Ephram w. Clark, who
went first to Honolulu in 1922, came
here and told a good deal about Ha-
wall, so l have known something of the
islands for years. He was pastor of
the Congregational Church in Honolulu
many years. Some of his children are
there now. He died in 1878. When L
saw him he was in Peacham, Vermont,
where Marshal Hendry and I were
brought up.
II wrote the Marshal yesterday. There
was another old missionary by the
name of Smith, twenty years ago. His
son-in-law was a dairyman just out
side of Honolulu. His name was Pet
tingin.
II lived in San Francisco in 1s7l-2
and 3. There was an old bark used to
run to Honolulu, which 1 saw frequent
ly. 1t was the d. C. Murray"

ARE GEARS LATEST
JUDGMENTS VAL|D2

Judge Gears decision, previously an-
nounced by cable, ordering a new trial
of Territory of Hawaii VS.. Cotton
Bros, in which a verdict of $4,000 for
plaintiff was returned, has been re-
ceived by mail. 1t is found that the
plaintiff did not make it's case depend
on the removal of the Government
dredge from Honolulu harbor, but on
the negligence of the lessees of the
dredge in mooring it unsafely at the
month of Pearl harbor. The conclu-
sion reads
show any failure on the part of the
defendants to do what an ordinarily
prudent person would have done un-
der the same circumstances, or the do
ing of what such person would not
have done. 1t seems to me that the
court erred in failing and refusing to
instruct the jury to return verdict
for the defendants, and for this reason
new trial should be ordered"
Judge Gears decision in the case of
Eliza j. Holt VS.. Albert Christian,
annulment' of marriage, received by
mail following the cabled announce
ment reads thus:
I'm this case 1t seems TO me that the
plaintiff has not made out such case
as under the authorities is required
to be made out in order to entitle her
to decree annulling the marriage be-
tween herself and the defendant. While
it seems to me that 1t perhaps would
have been much better for the plain
tiff never to have married, and the
conduct of the defendant in his wooing
and subsequent marriage is not to be
commended but should on the con-
trary be severely criticised, neverthe-
less the plaintiff has not shown such
case of incompetency as to justify
the court in annulling the marriage.
For this reason a Judgment should be
entered for the defendant
| A note to Clerk Sims from Judge
Gear asks him to file the foregoing
decisions as quickly as possible, ex-
pressing the hope that he would be IN
time. AS Judge Gears term expired
at midnight OF the End inst. and these
decisions were not filed until the morn
ing of the 4th inst. a nice point of law
seems to be involved in the validity
or otherwise of the judgments.

ION the Bishop Estate lands there
were bad fires in progress. One was
on the land of Kahauloa, mauka of the
pasture land leased to John Gaspar.
That fire was eXtinguished by Tues
day afternoon. No great damage was
done on the estate lands. A few patch
es of mountain taro and a small area
OF pasture land, belonging to other
parties, were burned over. One grass
hut was destroyed.
"A larger fire was on the land of
Honaunau under lease to S. NJ. Da-
mon, and on the portion sublet to w.
w. Bruner, whose Japanese contrac-
tors were clearing land for coffee plant
ing. The fire got beyond their control
and extended mauka into the ohia and
fern forests, but did not reach the
more valuable koa.
I'VE organized a gang of forty OF
more Japanese and by working day
and night opened a wide trail al
around the burning district. so that
the hre could not extend outside of tht
trail. T. c. White, our local agent
had already done effective work in tha
line, and We had the fire practically
under control by Tuesday.
"wednesday afternoon showed the
