HURRY UP CALL
in JURY TRIAL

A difficulty not before thought of
arose about concluding the Godfrey
Rowland ejectment case at leisure aft
er the close of the September term.
The January term begins on Tuesday
and Judge Robinson, trying this case,
is the presiding judge thereat. While
the amendment to the law permits a
trial to lap over one term, the query
raised was whether two terms could
run together in actual business.
To avoid chances of a mistrial, then,
all leisurely ideas We're dropped. Coun-
isel discussed with the court early yes
terday how the trial might be ended
before the close of the September term
at midnight of Saturday. 1t was not
decided until the close of the afternoon
session whether night sessions to
which some of the jurors We're averse,
should be held. The decision was to
resume at 7:30 and keep on till II
p. m.
Before the evening recess the last
witness in rebuttal was examined
Surrebuttal evidence was to follow

It happened years ago, during New
York run of Camille" but it was SO far
from the sort Of thing that is easily
forgotten that Clara Morris still loves
to tell the story, usually prefacing it
with: Somewhere in the wide, wide
world, there is an actor-and a good
actor-wf1o can never eat celery with
out thinking of me- Then she ex-
plains: 'In the first scene of Camille
Armand takes a rose from his mistress
as a love token. But this particular
night, just before we reached that
point, 1 suddenly missed the flower
from its accustomed place on my
breast. L had to have the blossom, or
something for substitute; the
strength of the scene hung on it. AS
L talked my lines 1 hunted the stage
with eager eyes, but no rose was there,
and the only possible something in its
place was the celery on the dinner-table
of the setting. Any port in a Storm
I went over to the table: twisted the
celery tops into a tight branch, and L
began the words: Take this flower. If
held and caressed it will fade in an
evening" Armand rose to the occasion,
for he managed to control himself long
enough to reply: 1t is a cold, scent

During the hottest fighting in the
Shipka Pass, the leading battalion OF
the Russian General Dragomiroff' d.
vision recoiled before a hailstorm of
Turkish bullets. The general was a
very stout person. and had the gener-
al appearance of a peaceful German
professor. But when he saw his men
recoiI, he dismounted and walked slow
ly to and fro along q ridge swept by
the enemy's bullets. He was a hum
dred yards in advance of the men, oc-
cupying the position they had aban-
doned After staying there for a while
without being touched, he shouted
back to the battalion: What are you
doing. you geese? Did you think there
was danger here? I don't find any!''
The men responded with a roar of
cheers, doubled up TO him, and charg-
ed so fiercely that the Turks We're
forced to retreat.

HOUSES OF HOLLOW TILE.

The modern fireproof private resi-
dence in the country is built without
expensive steel and iron framing. 1t
is the elimination of the steel part that
has made it possible to construct pri-
vate residences at a cost no greater
than that of wood. While the large
city houses and commercial buildings
require the steel framework supports,
the country house is spread over 50
much ground and offers so little actual
resistance surface to the high winds
that its stability and permanency are
not weakened by the absence of steel
columns and frames.
Both the partitions and outer walls
are built of hollow tile. which are lock-
ed together by modern inventions, so
that they are more solid and substan-
tiaI than the wooden frames of houses.
The latter will warp and shrink, but
the former do neither.
The floors are also built of hollow
tile, supported on the partitions of the
same material. and Joined together at
the ends, corners and sides by steel
interlocking inventions which make
perfectly indestructible joint. With
the floors forming a solid block of hol-
low thing that is absolutely fire proof,
dust proof, sound proof and vermin
proof, the home becomes a permanent
structure that may well be termed in
destructible and imperishable From
the roof to the basement the building
is built of fireproOf thing, and a con-
flagration once started in it could east
~ be confined to a single roOm.-Archi-

GOVERNMENT
HAS SLEPT.
Now Baker Comes Hot
Foot After His
$4,000.

David K. Baker by his attorneys, c.
W. Ashford and c. A. Long. is moving
in the Supreme Court to secure the
avails of the verdict of damages he OBJ
tanned in the Circuit Court of the Third
Circuit against A. T. Atkinson, Super
intendent of Public Instruction; Arthur
NJ Brown, High Sheriff; Lorrin A An
drews. Sheriff of Hawaii, and George
P. Kamauoha, Deputy Sheriff of South
Kona.
Cousel for plaintiff have fled mo-
ton to place the case on the Supreme
Court calendar for the purpose of NOV
ing then to have the exceptions of de-
pendants to verdict dismissed. Affida-
Wits by Geo. D. Bell, stenographer; Geo.
Lucas, clerk, and c. w. Ashford, at
torney, are attached to the motion,
showing that the application of John
w. Cathcart, attorney for defendants,
for transcript of evidence was never
followed up, also that defendants have
not filed the brief on motion in arrest
of judgment which they were ordered
to file before the plaintiff was required
to file a brief. In other words, the
grounds Of motion are to the effect that
defendants have failed to perfect their
intended appeal.
Bakers cause of action was the vio-
lent ejectment of himself and family
from a house and premises that de-
PENDANT. the uperintendent Of Public
instruction, claimed as school property.
| Damages were found by the jury OF
$500 against Atkinson, of $500 against
Brown and of 81 each against Andrews
and Kamauoha, in all S3002.
GOVERNMENT HIT AGAIN
Judge De Bolt has decided that the
Territory of Hawaii has passed its
right of abandonment to property taxi
en- for the extension of Kukui street.
In consequence and finding the pro-
| ceedings to have been regular, he re-
fuses to disturb the verdict of the jury
awarding Mrs. Charles Motley $1250
damages on that account. The court
and jury had viewed the premises. The
sum found by the jury as being just
| compensation is, to the courts mind,
! fair and reasonable.

MRS, GERTz
AND MAGOON
A Demurrer on Various
Grounds--Other
Items.

J. Alfred Magoon, in his personal
capacity and as trustee for c. H. Ban
ming and B. r. Banning, demurs to the
complaint of Anna Gertz for the follow
ing causes:
The bill shows on it's face that
the alleged cause of action is barr
ed by former judgment. The
bill shows on it's face, SO far as
the money judgment and the return of
personal property prayed for Is con-
cerned, that the alleged cause of &C
ton is barred by the statute Of limlta-
tions. The alleged cause of action Is
barred by the laches of plaintiff. The
bill is multifarious. The plaintiff mas
no standing in court of equity for the
reason that she does not offer to do
equity by returning the principal sum
secured by the mortgage nor the inter-
est thereon The bill does not show any
defect in the foreclosure proceedings
that would affect bona fide purchasers
for value without notice, and does not
show that John Buckley and Maria j.
Forbes were not bona fide purchasers
for value without notice of plaintiff S
alleged rights in the premises. The
bill is ambiguous, unintelligible and UNI
certain, and prays for relief beyond the
power of the court to grant. The pray
err of the bill is inconsistent with the
allegations thereof.
