CIRCUIT JUDGE LINDSAY GIVES
A SEVERE ROAST TO JOHN
DICKSON.

John Dickson spent a very uncom-
Portable half hour before Circuit Judge
Lindsay this morning. He was sent
for to answer for contempt for failing
to pay his divorced wife alimony and
and though he told a hard luck story
he went forth with an order to pay $40
within As hours or go to Jail for con-
tempt.
Dickson looked the picture of bad
luck. Judge Lindsay asked him why he
had failed to pay alimony as ordered
He said he had been sick and hadn't
been able to get work, and had no
money. The Judge asked if drink
hadn't caused the sickness and Dickson
who is SO ears of age, said an accident
to his leg in youth was troubling him.
Were you not convicted of drunken
ness a couple of weeks ago" asked at
torney Douthitt, who appears for the
woman.
The defendant admitted it, and then
the judge opened UP on him. He told
Dickson he ought to be ashamed of
himselff, and that a man in his posi-
ton ought not to touch a drop of liquor
under any circumstances. The di-
daughter and a son who has been
forced to stop work by reason of an
accident, and she is supporting the
home and trying to keep up a mort
gage by sewing and nursing. For
four months Dickson hasn't paid a cent
said Douthitt. I'VE don't ask him to
keep up $40 week as ordered, if he
is hard up but we have asked him to
try and do something and he has said
he won't. The little girl went to him
on q recent Saturday to see if she
couldn't get few dollars to keep up
with and she was met with curses"
81 am very sorry for you" the judge
said "but natural sympathy for one of
your age in your condition is not to
be needed in view of your actions. 1t
is evident that the trouble is due to
drink The divorce in this case was
granted on the grounds of habitual in
temperance.
1.-THE court will give you As hours in
which to pay your wife ten dollars and
if at the end of that time you have not
done so, you will be sent to Jail"
Il don't know how to get it," said
Dickson.
"Well, you have 4S hours in which
to find out where, or be committed for
contempt That is the only way i'm
which the court can enforce its orders.
If in the future there is another cita-
ton and complaint that you have
neglected to make an effort to pay, you
will be committed to Jail"
Dickson is carpenter by trade.

SERIOUS ACCIDENT
tCont.lued from page one).

been sunk. Those who witnessed the
occurrence declare that the suction
dr. dyer Pacific which is at work in the
Eva end of the harbor, was partially
to blame for causing a condition that
nearly resulted in serious damage
The Mongolia sounded four whistles
before she rounded the lighthouse this
morning, to notify the dredger that
she was approaching and wanted to
pass the line Of pipes on the pontoons.
She received within a short time, four
whistles in response from the Pacific
which signified that the way had been
cleared for her through the pipe line
But proper space had not been pre-
pared to admit the vessel through. On
an ordinary day with the wind not
blowing too hard the space this morn
ing would have been all right but not
so with such high wind from the west
that prevailed this morning 1t was
impossible for the vessel to be stopped
after she rounded the lighthouse point
for the wind would have driven her
up against the Oceanic wharf or else
cause the huge ship to drift aground on
the mauka side of the harbOr off the
Brewer and Sorenson wharvCs. Cap
tain Lorenzen had to take the vessel
along The result was that when she
began to pass the dredger which was
on the steamers starboard, side, the
wind drifted the steamer so close to
the dredger and a pontoon that was
there, that the starboard propeller
could be used with only a great risk
of striking the pontoon or even the
dredger. However it was a question
of getting the big ship into the slip or
allowing her to drift broadside past
the slip, so the chance had to be taken.
AS it was the steamer entered the
slip at an agile and as she went for
ward approached dangerously close to
the stern of the bark Kaiulani. For
tunately several bow lines were out
and these lines were hauled taut on
the Hackfeld wharf and the vessels
engines were reversed and she was
checked in time to avoid ramming the
Kaiulani. Her bow was within eight
feet of the steel sailing ship when she
was checked. Had she struck the bark
she would have smashed the smaller
vessel like an egg shell. The Mon
golia hit the end of the wharf a blow
broadsides o nand also brushed against
the dredger.
This is not the first time that COM
plant has been made against the
people aboard the dredger Pacific for
failing to give vessels sufficient room
in which to pass. Several island
steamers have run aground in avoiding
a collision with the dredging outfit
and complaint has been made by the
local harbor of Masters and Pilots, to
Lieutenant Slattery the army engineer
ing officer who is in charge of the
dredging of the harbor for the United
States government. The dredger Pa
cific is not operated by Slattery but is
in charge of the concern that has the
contract for deepening the barbor.

THE WHITE TIGRESS
IS A SUCCESS
WHOLESOME THOUGH EXCITING
MELODRAMA HOLDS BOARDS AIT,
THE ORPHEUM.

Despite the inclement weather a
good seized audience witnessed the
opening of THE White Tigress of Jap
an" at the Orpheum last night, and
were we'll rewarded for the play in all
that was claimed for it. The scenery
was magnificent and there were sew
eral very pretty stage pictures. Mr..
Clemens, the scenic artist, is deserving
of great praise for the fine work he is
turning out.
The first scene represented a Japan
csc garden with the city of Nagasaki
and it's harbor in the background. The
painting was from actual photographs
and it is doubtful if as good a setting
has ever before been seen in Honolulu.
Again the costuming was fine and the
Characterization true to life.
On the whole THE White Tigress of
Japan" is the best melodrama so far
given. The situations are original and
call for real acting. AS The White
Tigress" Miss Hayward, who carried
off the honors, gave a performance of
great merit and revealed glimpses of
rare genius. Mr. BUTLER, as the young
American Lieutenant, was up to his
usual good standard. The part was
heroic and his every appearance call
ed for applause. Miss Fowler Miss
Chandler, Messrs. Lowell, Earl, Wilkes
and Drum were all well cast and each
deserving of special mention. The com
edy was looked after by Henry Auer-
bach who is always good.
The play deals with incidents of the
late Japanese-Russian war in which
the cruelty of the Russian and bravery
of the Japanese is shown. 1t appeals
especially to the Japanese who were
present in large numbers. The plot is
consistent, and the entire production
worthy the patronage of the public

MOUNTAIN GEM PHYS THE SNAKE
In River Reaches . Favorable
Stage.

LEWISTON, Oct. 31.-The Snake
river is now at a good boating stage
as the result Of the recent rain and
warm wind which melted the early
snow in the mountains, and the steam
ers are now carrying large cargoes
and making good time Word has been
received that the steamer Mountain
Gem has left Cello for Riparia and
Immediately upon reaching the latter
point would enter the o. R. & N. SER
vice.
The boat was leased by the o. r. &
NJ several weeks ago, but the low
stage Of water since that time has
made it impossible to bring the craft
to Riparia. The present stage is, how
ever, now favorable for the run.
The boat is under the command of
Captain Gray. During the fall the Gem
will be used in hauling wheat from the
river warehouses to Riparia. She :,
Of lighter draught than the o. r. &

most any stage of water.
Advices from the lower river state
that there will be more grain stored
in the warehouses this fall than in
any past year.
