ON reaching Maria Roselli's house,
the number of which had been givrn
him by Lorenzo. the Inspector knocked
loudly, and then impatientiy waited for
an answer. None came, nor did amy
sound of voice on movements within
the dwelling indicate that il was ton
anted. He capped again With like re-
suit ana pthen stepped into the street
TO view The dwelling. As he did so
the big, narrow door from which the
paint had long since faded opened and

AS Mackworth walked to the end of
the roun and looked out on the square
through one of the long, narrow Win
aoNs, some thought came to him that
he was ON the point of making a dis

After this the woman moved toward

curiosity nor sympathy to inquire what

January /, 1900, to February 2s, 1902,
claimed. The defendant took excep-
lions, which were overruled, but a re-
hearing was granted and has been had
upon The question whether the plain
tiff was not precluded from recovering
such rent after the commencement of
the lease to Mendonca, on tine theory
that the right to rent to accrue under
the first two leases passed to Mendon
ca by operation of law upon the lease
of the reversion to him.
Mendonca executed a document, on
the date of his acknowledgment of the
lease to HIM, in which he certified that
he Was aware of the fact that three
of the pieces of land covered by his
lease were then partly under the two
leases made to Ahlo and partly under
lease made to another person; also
that his lease twas granted subject
to the aforementioned three leases
Besides that certificate, a reliance of
plaintiff was on the fact that one Bolte
was the agent of both Silveira and
MendoDca. "But, the court remarks,
"Bolte could not as agent of one make
contract with himself as agent of the
other so as to bind either in the abb
sence of consent or ratification by
them, nor did he attempt to do that
so far as. appears.
1t is mentioned that neither Men
donca nor Bolte is party to the ac-
ton, and in it's conclusion the opinion
says: "In the absence of any agree
ment or conduct on the part of the
overlessee that would prevent him
from recovering the rent from the de-
PENDANT, it must be held that the
lessor is not entitled to the rent. The
defendant should not be required to
pay the plaintiff when he may be
called upon to pay Mendonca. 1t may
be that evidence can be produced on
new trial which will show that the
plaintiff is entitled to the rent.
The decision here reversed was rem
dered by Justice Hartwell, sitting
with Chief Justice Frear and Justice
Hatch, on December 10, 1904. Fire had
destroyed buildings on portion of
the premises in question before the
lease to Mendonca was made.

THOMAS QUINN AND
HIS PAL0L0 ENTRY

Thos. Quinn is one of the men who
We're denied the right to take up a Pa
lelo homestead on the ground that he
was delinquent in his taxes. Mr.. Quinn
went to pay his taxes before he hand
ed In his certificate of entry. The en-
tire tax bill as rendered to him he
paid. Before the business was complet-
ed the tax office looked up the back
records and found that Mr.. Quinn
owed a personal tax bill of which, as
it appears, he had no previous knowl-
edge. He paid this bill as soon as he
heard of it. Even then he could not
get his land, because of the rule, Once
delinquent, always delinquent" Mr..
Quinn protested at this decision and
it is now in the hands of the Attorney
General for review.
w. NJ. Carlisle Is another citizen who
Is having trouble. He had been long
an officer in the National Guard and
thus had no personal tax to pay until
the law was repealed. Naturally he
did not think of taxes and not being
notified of any, went On the delinquent
list. He at once squared up when he
learned of his obligation; but he got
no land. He is practically disfranchis-
ed as a land-claimant because of de-
linquency he has since made good.

LAW
LAID DOWN

By a practically unanimous opinion
the Supreme Court reverses it's former
decision in the case of NJ. b. Silveira
VS.. L. Ahlo, sets aside the verdict for
plaintiff and orders a new trial. A. G..
M. Robertson. appeared for plaintiff;
Castle Wilmington for defendant.
Chief Justice Frear writes the opinion,
which Circuit Judge Lindsay signs
with him. Justice Hartwell, though
having somewhat different under
standing of the case from that of his
associates, signs a concurring opinion
rather than risk making Ahlo liable
to two parties for rent of the same
land.
"The plaintiff executed two leases
to the DEFENDANT the court says,
"one to expire May l, 1908, the other
January /, 1905, each being for fifteen
years and at monthly rental. Before
the termination of these leases he ex-
ecuted third lease of the same and
other lands to one Mendonca, to begin
June l, 1900, and to be rent free for
the first four months and at a speci-
fed rental per month for the further
term of fifty years. He afterward
brought this action for the rent that
accrued under the first two leases from

There Will be no Grim.
inaI Proceedings in
PaIoIo Matter.

1t is probable that all the Palolo land
claimants, with the possible exception
of Isaac Noar, will have their deeds re-
turned to them and be permitted to
buy the land. 1t Will be remembered
that after the allotments of lands were
made, 1t was found that there was q
question as to whether nine of the pur-
chasers could take public lands, being
supposed to be delinquent for taxes. An
investigation, however, has shown that
in most of the cases this delinquency
was only apparent For instance,
Thomas Quinn was one of those whose
deed was withheld for a time. The
case was referred 20 the Attorney
General, along with the cases of Isaac
Noar and w. w. Carlyle.
In the case of Quinn, 1t was found
that he had gone to the tax office, ask
ed the amount of his tax, and paid
all that he had been asked to pay.
Surprising then that he was free to
take up Palolo lands. he had gone to
tut Sltltu tudl lie
was not delinquent for taxes. and had
been allowed to take the land. Later,
1t was found that Quinn owed some
poll taxes that had gone delinquent
years ago, for which he had never
been asked and of which he knew
nothing. And, on the opinion of Attor-
neyGeneral, who holds that Quinn act
ed in perfect good faith, he will get his
lot.
The case of Carlyle is slightly differ
ent, in that he was militiaman, ex-
empt for a number of years. After
he left the militia he went away for
time. and since coming back had
never been asked for poll tax, of course
had not paid it, and 1t was not even
charged against him.
Noar has n suit for taxes pending
and there are number of cases of
Paloo men under investigation but
there does not seem to be much prob
ability that any of the claimants. with
the possible exception of Noar, will
meet anything worse than the vexa-
ton of delay. At all events, there will
be no criminal proceedings instituted

harping on the whistling buoy installed
on Blond Reef by Captain Niblack, U.
S. n. They complain that the buoy
maintains its dolorous whistle night

night. AS Hiloites have been charged
with lying awake to think of things to
kick about, it is said they should be
thankful to Capt. Niblack for having
given them something to work on. 1t
is said the whistle can be heard at
