About six years ago he moved to Chi

ployed there in the capacity Of sta.
tionary engineer. His wife, formerly
Miss Lydia Mum, of Chicago, he's Wis
tied in the city with friends and rela-

Mrs. Lydia Forsythe, ,S019 Coles av-

"A whistle from the robber brought
confederate from his hiding place
under the bed in another room. and
the two, after rendering the woman
helpless. ransacked the house and ca
capped.
Mrs. Forsythe had gone shopping,
returning in time to prepare the noon,
meal for her two children. When she
entered the house there were no evil
dence of anything having been dis
turbed, and the meal was eaten with

NO HOLIDAY RATES.
Travellers in East Must Pay Full Fare
Christmas Week.

Probably for the first time in the
history of railroads no special holiday
rates will be granted this year by
roads in the Central Passenger asso-
citation. No rates were granted for
Thanksgiving day, and unless some
action is taken at nmB4ing of the
Central Passenger asoseAstSen at Chi
cago next week pissauesfs will b
compelled to pay the regular fare dur.
ing Christmas week. Railoud officials
figure that they would not be justified
in granting special holiday rates this
year in view of the many reductions
made in passenger fares all over the
country. Usually the special rates are
announced during the latter part of
October, but no circulars have been
issued. Representatives of certain
trunk lines are said to favor the spec
1al holiday rates and viii present, a re-
solution TO this effect at the Chicago
meeting this week.
Changes in the West.
i Western line have decided to
abandon students certificates and to
allow more return time on tickets is
sued at the Christmas holidays. They
have made the conditions surrounding
the issuance of cheap transportation
for the holidays more liberal for the
entire public. The usual rate of one
and one-third fare for the round trip
will prevail, but to obviate the neces-
sity of issuing a student certificate
two additional selling days have been
added and four days have been added
for the return limit of. the ticket. The
selling dates will be December 20, 81,
%, %, "a, rs, 80 and 81, and January
i. The return limits on all tickets
Will be January Z. Formerly it was

tChicago Record Herald
Hawaii is a small Territory, but II
has a large interest in labor problems
and race problems. It's laboring popu.
lation is made up chiefly of orientals,
Chinese and Japanese, and of the ma.
tive race, but the Portuguese have
made contributions to It for many
years, and since the Spanish war there
have been experiments on the sugar
plantations with Porto Ricans.
To this remarkable assemblage
there will now be added about n so
families of peculiar Russian sect
called Molokans. A contract has been
signed with these people, and they will
reach the islands some time in March.
The sect to which they belong was
first heard OF in the south of Russia.
Il is without priests, its meetings are
held in private houses, and its creed is
very far removed from that of the or
thodox Russians. The miracles of the
New Testament are discarded and so
is the divinity of Christ. The Script.
ures. however, are the foundation OF
the Molokans' faith, they are close stu
dents OF the Bible, and they believe
that they are closely related in prin
ciple and practice to the early Chris
tlans. But since they cultivate free
dom of thought they have broken up
into divers subdivisions. AS a matter
of course they have suffered from per
secution. and yet they number, II Is
said several hundred thousands.
A Honolulu paper wakes enthusias
tic over the contract. II declares that
the date OF its signing will be regarded
as a great date in the history OF the
islands. II says that the elders of the
Molokans believe that Hawaii offers
their people what they have sought fol-
two centuries, AMI adds: "If the expe
rience of the pioneers bears out this
faith then white civilization will occu
by this land forever, and a prosperity
will befall Il such as no one ever saw
before or could have anticipated as the
| fruit of a single industry"
Al the same time the Portuguese are
asserting themselves. Their organ al
Hilo says: 1.-THE settlement of Hawaii
with citizens. or those eligible to be
come such, is rapidly beginning to be
II II Is not now, the pTe-eminent ISSUE
in this Territory" The paper finds
resemblance between the great trusts
of the mainland and the landed inter
ests of Hawaii, and argues vehementll
against land trust, against the Orien
ais and for small holdings by the I'LL
ers OF the soil.
Evidently the Hawailans need no
go outside their own borders to finC
subjects for discussion.

The mauka. Waikiki corner. in local

taken on a wonderfully improved ap
pearance in the last few days and now
boasts a finely finished double decker
store where all the wants OF man in the
wearing apparel line can be satisfied.
For a week or so the management OF
the Kash clothing stores has been bus.
lily engaged in consolidating the two
establishments under its control. For
merly one store was located on Hotel
street. between Bethel and Nuuanu,
and the other on the present site. The
Hotel street store is now given up and,
the second story of the Fort street
premises having been acquired. the
present establishment accommodates
the entire business. Upstairs is the
general clothing department, while on
the ground floor attention is confined
to furnishings. A large entrance is sit
uated on the corner and through this
portal one MAJ step almost directly to
the broad stairway leading above, OF
walk into the furnishing department

Special attention has been given the
fixtures and everything possible has
been done for the accommodation Of

The Costs

The matter OF the Bishop Estate fish
cry case in which the United States
Supreme Court ordered the Territory
to pay the costs of the case in the sum
OF Sll6, came up before the Supreme
Court this morning through a motion
by b. l.. Marx, representing the Bishop
Estate. that the matter of the costs be
taken I'D before the matter was re-
manded to the Circuit Court. Just at
what form to get at the matter of the
costs seemed to puzzle the court as
well as the attorneys, but the matter
was finally set for next Monday.
The u. S. Supreme COURTS order
that the plaintiff recover costs against
the Territory by execution, as II Is not
quite plain, in view of the fact that the
title in the Territory's property Is
claimed to be vested in the United
States. what property there can be to
levy on.
IL doubt very much IL an execution
would issue in case like this" said
the Attorney General today How
ever. It is no more than right and jus
tice that the Territory should pay thu
costs OF the opposing side in case
where II has lost, and we shall prob
ably pay the money from the incidental
fund Of the Attorney Generals Depart
ment. We are, however, not able tC
make the payment now, but will have
to wait until he have caught up sufli
GENTLY with our incidentals to atIort
to pay. OF course the legislature die
not intend that such expenditures
should be paid from the incidentals
and as the legislature meets early mex
year. II might pass an appropriation
TO make this payment. On the othe
hand | think we shall be able to pa!
the amount from the incidental funt
and the other side will probably hav'
no objection to waiting"

JAPANESE DEhE
URGENT
DEMAND Of COURT

Sasahara, a Japanese living at Eva,
will very soon learn that the law
brooks no delay. A couple OF days ago
q writ OF habeas corpus was directed
by the petition OF Sasahara's daugh-
ter's adopted father against SasaharsS
commanding him TO produce his daugh-
ter in court forthwith. The petitioner
showed that he had legally adopted the
girl, but that she was being held By
Sasahara in spite of the fact that he
had long since relinquished his con-
troll over her.
Yesterday the writ was served on
Sasahara by Officer Mkt. Sasahara
accepted service and genially re-
marked that he would come TO court
with his daughter when he found the
time to do so. As a consequence X. w.
Breckons. the petitioners attorney, to-
day had a bench warrant issued against
Sasahara, made returnable tomorrow
morning, so that that gentleman will
now most probably have to find time
to obey the orders OF the court.
