DOVER DISPUTE
IN BkRETE ESTATE

William Savidee, trustee, n defend
ant among others in a suit brought
by Maria Barete for admeasurement
of dover, has filed his answer. The
main point he sets up is that com
piainant has lost all right which she
now claims or may ever have had. on
account of having slept on her rights
for over nine years. Thompson &
Clemens are his attorneys.
Agnes SOares, Manuel Soares, Fran
cisco Guerrero, Ben Guerrero and ANA
liza Barete. other defendants in the same
case, by their attorneys, Magoon &
Lightfoot, have also answered. They
say that on August 80, 1905, in the
suit of Agnes Soares ct al. VS.. Fanny
Guerrero ct al, on motion to set aside
dover fled by Maria Barete, the court
ordered that William Savidge pay to
her the sum of $1321.0S for her dover
They say she was not entitled to that
sum but only to the income thereof
4 representation in that case that
$3609.22 in the trustees hands was

defendants, who say it was only in
part personal property.
In their prayers they ask that. in

RIGHT TO a PRIMARY VOTE
SAFE UNDER CONSTITUTION

to vote at primary elections is sacred
under the Constitution, and that no po-
litical committee or commission can
make an arbitrary ruling defining what
members of that political party shall
or shall not vote at the primaries.
The logic of this decision would seem
to be that the citizens right to vote
at primary elections does not depend
ON active participation in political
clubs. Membership in a party of any
political faith may be determined by
the administration OF an oath to the
voter-not that he will support the
straight ticket nominated by the party
convention, but that he is a Repub-
lican or a Democrat, as the case
may be-
Remen Der. henceforward, that the
right to vote at primary elections is
Sacred under the Constitution" and
can not be denied to any citizen by
any political committee or commission.

From these figures it is seen that in
| two years the college department has
grown about so per cent. and the pre-
paratory school about Al per cent. In
the college, where formerly the assem-

ablv. the students are now seated also
i'm the two side rooms formerly used
for recitation purposes. The need for
more recitation rooms will be filled
none too soon by the completion of the
new buildings.
The registration in the special de-
partnents-music and manual training
which necessarily follows the settle
ment in the regular classes, has not
yet been completed 1t is expected that
all of the teachers in these depart
ments will have full schedules.
In the preparatory school the chapel
exercises were conducted by Mr..
French.' The morning was spent here,
as in the kindergarten, in assigning the
pupils to the various grades and in
making a start on the years work.
AT the college, the chapel exercises,
which began promptly, at o'clock,
were impressive. After the hymn sung
by the school and the devotional exer-
cises led by President Griffiths, Mr..
Frederick Hastings, who this year takes
charge of the music department at the
college, rendered solo. His full, SYM
pathetic voice, with it's power and
range, delighted his hearers.

sat on the platform
F. w. Damon spoke feelingly and elo-
quently upon the desirability of break
ing away from bad mental habits and
of forming good ones early in ones in
tellectual career. In the name of the
trustees, he extended a cordial welcome
to the students. He stated that the
present pleasant relations among trus-
tees, teachers and students were sure
TO result IN inspiring ana progressive !

L. A. Thurston felicitously referred !
to the advice that Mr.. Damon, as a |
former teacher of his at Punahou, had |
given him, and drove home some sound |

said he had this in mind
Teachers examinations will be held
on June 90 and 81, 1908.
The kalihi-waena school contract has
been settled upon and the site selected
and construction work will begin at
once The Kihei and Waihee schools
are also to be built soon. The Hawai-
hapai school on this island will be com
pleted in about 30 days.
The superintendent reported the
fence between the Kaiulani and the
Girls Industrial schools had been
moved about so feet eastward or into
the industrial grounds, giving much
needed space to the Kaiulani school
The upper part of the fence has been
taken down and the Kaiulani school
now appears to better advantage from
the street.
AS to Mr.. Mayfeld who is the manual
training instructor, Mr.. Babbitt stated
that he was to give instruction to
classes from the Royal, Kaahumanu
and other large schools at the Normal
school where he would have his head
quarters. 1t is the purpose of the
department to have kits of tools at all
the large schools so that instruction
may be given and in time the students
may make repairs that may be found
necessary to the buildings. This Will
all be in the nature of practical in

Honolulu, T. H, Sept. 13, 1906.
Editor Advertiser: On August 10,
1906. an interesting judicial decision was
rendered by Judge Brumback in the
Circuit Court at Kansas City, Mis-
souri,, relative to primary elections. The
decision is one of far-reaching import
ance, especially applicable to the con-
troll of primaries by political machines.
The case in brief was this: At the
last preceding general election there
had been considerable scratching of
the ticket and the County Central
Committee prom. u1gated a rule that no
member of the party who voted the
scratched ticket should be permitted
to vote at the next primaries. Members
of the party who had scratched the
ticket at the polls took exceptions to
this ruling OF the Central Committee
and entered suit against the latter in
the Federal Circuit Court
Judge Brumback says that the right

ural and afterwards that which is
spiritual. Our Lords death seemed a
terrible, lamentable disaster; but it
led to higher and nobler life. And
even in things temporal destruction is
often the beginning of better day
San Francisco will be rebuilt. It will
rise nobler and better city, as Chi
were rebuilt.
III. Another lesson and one which
grows out of this, that such disaster
brings out the best and nObleSt in men,
and glorities God. In the midst of ali
the trials and terrorS of this week may
we not feel just pride in our race
that the men in control rose to their
duty in so noble and grand a manner.
The protection Of property, the fight
ing OF the flames, the rescue of the in
jured, the care for the helpless and for
the bodies OF the dead, the feeding of
the hungry; the calm courage, the
maSterful control Of the situation, the
prevention OF robbery and pillage,
where else but in Christendom could
such things be done as have been done
in San Francisco?
w. And the GROWING lesson of all
is the lesson of Charity. THIS is it
which explains all of Gods judgments.
1t is an opportunity for the exercise of
that blessed grace which is the crown
of the Christian life. When the Dis
ciples passed by the man at the temple
gate born blind, they asked our Lord,
who hath sinned, this man Or his pa
rents, that he was born .blind?" Not
one Of them had stopped to give him a
penny or to say word to cheer his
misery. "Neither hath this man sim
ned nor his parents" said Jesus, "but
that the works Of God might be mani
fest in him." He took the man and
presence of evil in the world may per-
pick us; but the practical solution is
plain. Every misfortune is an oppor.
tunity to do good. This comforts
those in trouble and they realize the
love of God, Who: if He have sent
trouble, has sent blessed messenger
to relieve it. This causes the world
to glorify God, when it sees the love
which he puts into the hearts Of His
children. And this blesses all who
share in the helping. This disaster is
going to cost this country many mill
lions Of dollars. But what though it
cost 5000, 900, 900 or $500, 900, 900, it is
worth it. For it will bless us all with
heart which knows how to sympa-
thize with those in trouble. A tender
heart is worth more than gold. We
sometimes need case about which we
Can raise no question. We cannot
blame the improvidence or laziness of
these people: and if through such a
call to us our hard hearts are struck as
by Moses rod, and the blessed waters
of liberality are made to flow we shall
experience the blesSedness of helping
others. 1t will make US all better men
and better women. We shall have
that lesson which is SO fully taug bit by
the life of Our Divine Lord, sit is

THE METHODIST CHURCH.
SOME INTERESTING FACTS REGARDING
ITS HISTORY.

AS nearly as we can ascertain, about
the year 1900 class was formed and
Methodist preaching was given by two
local preachers, Levi BunSOn and yO-
seph Pierce, in house that stood upon
the ground where Trinity church now
stands, in NeWt0wn street. The first
preaching by an itinerant minister
was by Samuel M. Erwin, Of the Meth
odist Episcopal church, about the year
1904.
In 1904 a class was formed as nu-
cleus to forming a church organization.
Here follow the names of the original
class-paper: Isaac Sanford, Ann San
ford, Benjamin Curtiss, Polly Curtiss,
Sally Curtiss, Amea Summers, Han
nah Gamley, Sarah Lyon, Jacob Ray
mond, Hannah Platt, Nemiah Sanford,
Saba Booth, Polly Nap, Betsey Hand,
Beach Bennett, Sarah Anderson.
The circuit over which the timer
ants travelled was from Milford tic
New Milford, and from Dantown to
the Housatonic River, about forty by
fifty miles. At this time there wa,
but one Methodist Episcopal church
building, situated at Easton.

While the extreme fashion calls for
narrOw-tOed shoes this season, and
makers have succeeded in making such
shoes to fit with comfort, yet the aver
age man is willing to travel along life's
way in a shoe whose style strikes an
average and yields comfort. So Meigs
& Co. lin their celebrated zenith" and
Zenith" Special shoes, have brought
out medium narrOw-tOed shoes and OK
fords which possess all the style
points without encroaching on foot
room. To be sure, they have the ex-
IRENE style for the many young fellows
who will wear nothing else and no
other shoes than "Zeniths." But it is
to the Orthopedic shape that men
who are much on their feet turn for
solid comfort and find it; and this
shape has been so widely commended
that Meigs & Co. for some time have
been selling Orthopedic shoes for boys,
which give needed room for natural
growth of the feet. The same firm
has lately brought out a truss arch
cushion sole shoe for men, which af-
fords added support to the arch Of the
foot, prevents breaking down of the
arch Of the foot and cures flat-foot.
