hto effect in the autumn, provides that
all immigrants shall be registered at
the port of entry, and that certificate
shall be given to each person. Not less
than two years prior to his admission
to citizenship the applicant for natur-
alization must appear in a United
States District or Circuit Court, or In
a Territorial or State court having a
seal, clerk and jurisdiction in actions
at law and equity, and in that court he
must renounce all foreign allegiance,
and must swear that he Is at least 18
years old and intends to become citi-

seven, years later he may file in court a
petition for naturalization. setting forth
his qualifications for citizenship, veri-
fled by at least two persons who have
lived In the United States for five
years. At the expiration of ninety days
the petitioner must appear In court in
person, and submit to an examination
with his witnesses. The clerk In the
meantime has posted in a public place
a notice of the application, with the
mans name and the date of his petit
ton. After the hearing, If the man has
proved his ability to read, and If he
has satisfied the judge of his identity
and of his residence in the country for
seven years, and of his adherence of
all anarchistic doctrines, the final pa

takes time and that the public knows
for ninety days of the Intention of any
alien to apply for citizenship. The
grayest scandals under the old law
arose from the habit Of naturalization
without previous notice to the public.
Applicants have been taken into court
by the score, and turned into citizens
as fast as their names could be taken
and the oath administered.

Notwithstanding denials from Wash

that two regiments Of Japanese yeter

waiting the signal to take possession
Of this city. No outward evidence Of
such military organization is given,
but the secret agents Of the United

tails that caused them to cable the In
formation to Washington.
The members of these regiments are
working in various capacities in and
about the city. A very significant fact
has been observed about the charac'
ter Of the Japanese who have been
coming to Honolulu lately from Japan.
Ii has been noticed that the recent
arrivals have been harder and bet

who formerly came. Many of them
have been wearing their war medals,
and this display OF war records has
been especially noted by observers.

that in event of war the scene of the

Sister il pueI for Love.

Havana Cable 10 the New York Herald
Reports OF duel between two sis
tiers have just reached here.
Maria and Carmen Hidalgaea lived
on farm near Las Lajas. Not far
away, on another plantation, worked
a handsome chap named Juanlllo, with
whom both girls we're IN love. Juanil
Ito seems to have been divided In his
attentions.
The sisters had their first open
quarrel about the man a few days ago.
and the next morning left the house
together at daylight. Carmen came
back alone.
Investigation showed that each sis
Ter had taken a revolver and gone to
lonely vega, or tobacco field, one to
live and the other to die for the OBJ
1ect of their affection. Rural guards
were informed by neighbors who heard
the story, and a search revealed the
body of Maria Hldalguez on the adj
joining estate Of Maguajara.
Carmen Hidalgues has not yet been
arrested. but the courts are lnvestt-
eating the case.
The sisters had previously been de-
voted to each other, and one report
from Las Lajss has 1t that they did
not shoot at each other, but drew lots
to see who should have JuaniiiO, who
has since disappeared.

When you quit you'll get your fun
talet the boss see nothing frazes,
Nothing halts YOU till you're done.
Elll your Job for all that's in you
When you come to be boss
You won't want the men that skin
you.
So get in and dig, old boss.
