HIS FIRST WATERSPOUT.
Groen Sailor Boy Wanted to See Oney and He Was Quickly Ac-
 commodated.

A waterspout is one of the first things a green sailor boy wants to see. He has read about it as one of the wonders of the sea, and it rouses his keenest curi- osity. He gets the old sailors to promise to call him when one is sighted. They promise, winking stealthily at each oth- CT, relates an exchange.
 The ship gets down into tropical wa- ters, and the boy is told that water spout may come along almost at any time.
 One night he Is awakened suddenly. An old sailor shakes him.
 Come on! Hurry up, young feller: there's a waterspout on the starboard bow bearing right down on us."
 The boy hastens up the companion- way without waiting t0 drsss. end q he darts out on decK ne IS thrown down by a mass of water descending on him liko a wet mountain. He struggles to his feet, gasping, sputtering:
 'rWa-a-s that-t wa-a-a-ter spout?"
 The sailors are around him roaring. Then he looks up above the companion- way and sees an empty hogshead. Having seen and felt the waterspout, he descends to his bunk, wipes himself dry and turns in. Next time waterspouts In great num- bers may be reported on both bows, but he will have no particular desire to ob- serve them.

C0nvulsion, Fits, then Epilepsy.

Dr. Miles Restorative Nerv- inc has been so successful in curing these brain-wrecking diseases that there is every reason to believe that even the most hopeless cases can be benefited, if not fully restored.
 We will be pleased to refer any one thus afflicted to many who now enjoy the blessing of health, after years of hopeless suffering.
 T have a son that had brain fever when two years old, followed by fits of the worst type, and he was pronounced for hm whoe ree After abou fifteen years he became so bad that we sent him to Longcliff hospital for the insane, at Logansport, Ind. He was hsIe tnued o EroM ss So U%e
 him home July 30, 1902, in an awful condition. He had lost his mind almost entirely. He hardly knew one of the was total wreck He had from 5 to 10 fits day. We were urged to try Dr. Miles Nervine, and before the first bottle was used, we could see change for the better. We have given it to him ever since. and he has had but two very light spells since last August, 1903, and then he was not well other ways. We pronounce him cured, as he can work and go anywhere. If any one wishes to ask any questions concerning this, they are at liberty to do so."

Philippin. Positions Not Wanted.

Philippine Positions Not Wanted.
 Positions in the Philippines seem to % begging. Several months ago Col. Edwards, chief of the insular bureau, called upon the civil service commis- sion to certify candidates for 15e teachers positions paying from $2,000 to $900 per annum. There were few applicants, fewer took the examina- ton, and only A were found eligible for appointment Another examtna- ton will, therefore, be held early in October. The insular bureau will not permit women to take the examina- ton for these positions. and tho du- ties or pay Of pedasogus do not seem to appeal to the young men of the country.

The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1905-02-27

The complaint alleges that The Ha-
waiian Star Newspaper Association is
a corporation and on February % pub
lished a paper, The Hawaiian Star, in
which appeared two articles which are
set forth in full, the Ballou statement
and the editorial on "Magoon and the
Bar Association"
Magoon says that the publication
was false and malicious and libellous,
and was with intent to injure the
plaintiff professionally. He declares
that it has damaged him and will con-
tinue to damage him to the amount of
$4,000, and that he is further entitled
to punitive damages in the sum of $1O,-
900, and he therefore asks that the de-
fendant corporation be ordered to pay
him the sum Of 100000
The suit against Attorney S. NJ. Bal
lou starts with the same statement OF
Magoon's professional position, inte-
gritty and abilities and continuing, says
that Ballou is a practitioner Of law and
a person of wealth and prominence in
the community and adds:
That on or about the 25th day of
February, a. D. 1905, the defendant,
wen hllOWlllE llt ~ ltlllloeo' hlu llldllNl-
ously compose, print and publish and
cause to be composed, printed and pub
lished, the following false, scandalous,
malicious, libellous and defamatory
matter of and concerning plaintiff in
his said profession as a lawyer and in
relation to his conduct in his said pro-
fession, in the following words CHere
the complaint contains Ballous state
ment as filed in the Supreme Court.
Magoon says that Ballou filed his
statement well knowing that it would
be published in the leading newspapers
of Honolulu and that it was so pub
lished, that the matters set forth in
the statement were not pertinent to
any issue then pending in the Supreme
Court, but were set forth 'solely out OF
spite and malice towards this plaintifl
and with the intention to injure hin
both individually and in his profession
as a lawyer, and to bring plaintiff anC
plaintiffs name into public scandal
disgrace, adherence, odium, contempt
and ridicule"
AS i'm the case of The Star, Magoor
assesses his professional damages by
the filing of Ballou's statement at 500,
600, and he declares that he is entitled
to $4,000 punitive damages, making &
total of 100000. He appears as his owr
attorney in both cases.

j. Alfred Magoon this morning filed
a suit against The Star asking 100000
damages, on account of the publication
in the Star of S. NJ Ballou's charges
against him in the Supreme Court and
of an editorial which appeared Satur-
day afternoon, entitled "Magoon and
the Bar Association" At the same
time he filed a suit against Ballou, for
another $4,000, on account Of Ballou's
statement as filed in the Supreme Court
and referred to the Attorney General
for investigation.
The suit against The Star is entitled
J. Alfred Magoon VS.. the Hawaiian
Star Newspaper Association, a corpor-
alton, and sets forth at length the two
alleged libellous publications. one of
them, the Ballou statement, is a su-
pfeme Court record and was published
in the other local papers, but Magoon
did not this morning take any action
as to them, giving The Star the dis
tinction of his sole newspaper atten-
tions.
Magoon sets forth his own status as
follows:
THAT plaintiff now is and for many
years last past has been a resident of
Honolulu, Island of Oahu, Territory of
Hawaii, and duly qualified licensed
and acting practitioner of law before all
the courts of the Territory Of Hawaii,
and as such practitioner has built up a
practice among a large and influential
number of the citizens of said Terri
tory and that plaintiffs business as
such practitioner of law depends
on his good reputation in the COM
munity and the trust and confidence
reposed in him by clients
"That as a practitioner of law as
hereinbefore set forth, plaintiff has al.
ways behaved and conducted himself
with skill care judgment and inte'
gritty both in his general practice anC
especially in relation to those lega
matters and proceedings to which ref
erence is made by the libel herenafte
. set forth"
