DEMURRER SUSTAINED
BY WHITNEY
IN DIETz MATTER

The prosecution in the case of Ger
hardt Dietz, charged with criminal
libel, received setback this morning
when Judge Whitney sustained the de-
murrer interposed by the defense. The
complaining witness, Matchmaker
Redhouse, swore to a complaint
against Dietz on the grounds that the
defendant in communication to the
Advertiser had accused certain parties
OF having killed one Horniff, whose
body was found in the Diamond Head
crater some years ago. Redhouse
claimed that this article alluded to
himself and his wife, but the Court in
its decision today held that the con-
Lection was not sufficiently clearly
shown and the demurrer was therefore
sustained. This will, however, it is
understood, not prevent the prosecution
from making out a new complaint
should it SO desire. c. w. Ashford is
low representing Redhouse, taking
the place of Judge Gear ]. Lightfoot
represents the defendant.

DIVORCE COURT
Up AGAINST II
Jap Claims Divorce
Was Granted In
Japan

| 1t must be convenient for a man tc
lie able to write back home, when he
gets tired of his wife and wants a new
one, and have his mother fix it up, gel
a divorce and all that. That kind OF
thing may work very well in Japan
but Uncle Sam frowns upon tit facr
won't stand for 1t. That's why Tsuch
Yanagi and Santoki are in trouble, why
they were arrested last night by Unit
ed States Marshal Hendry for violation
OF the Edmunds Act.
The case is one that illustrates very
well the peculiar idea a good many
Of the Orientals have of our laws and
institutions.
Some time ago Japanese woman
arrived on one of the steamers from
the Orient, and on being questioned by
the immigration authorities, stated
that she had come to marry local
japanese
The immigration people investigat,
ed and found that the man had CONS
aere several years before with wo-
man who, he said, was his wife. They
wanted to know what he was bringing
another woman out to marry him for,
if that was the case. He replied that
he had got tired of the other woman,
that she had gone back to japan and
he had got a divorce from her, and he
had right to marry another woman
II he wanted to.
Asked how he got the divorce, he
said that he had written back to his
mother and she had arranged it all fol
him.
This brought up very pretty legal
question as to whether such divorce
was legal District Attorney Breckons
took the ground that it was not, and
the woman was refused permission to
land here The Courts allowed her to
do so, however, and the matter was ap-
pealed to Washington, the papers in
the case being on their way there now.
And then day or so ago, some one
came to the Federal District Attorne,
and stated that the mans wife had
never gone back to Japan; that she
was still in this country and was liv-
ing at Aiea as the wife of Tsuchi va
rlagi
The couple was promptly arrested
last night and brought before the Fed.
eral authorities. They tell peculiar
story, claiming that they are not vo-
lating any law but are legally man and
wife. The woman admits that she has
not been back to Japan, but claims that
she was divorced from her first hus.
band. She says the divorce was OBJ.
tanned from the Japanese government
through her parents back there, and
that she was then married here TO
Tsuchi
This confuses the original matter
still more, and it will probably take
considerable time to get it Strengthened
out. But United States District Attor-
ney Breckons says that he will not
recognize any such divorce and re-
marriage. 1t is easy but it doesn't suit

DUCKS DIED, OWNERS
ASK FOR DAMAGES
Rival Chinese Firms
Take Fight To
Courts

IN the matter of the Kwong Chong
fuen Co. versus the Lung Wal Co.,
the plaintiffs today filed an amend
ed complaint. The case is one in
which two Chinese companies are
Guarreling over certain water rights.
The companies each consist of a
whole army of Chinese who raise
ducks, mosquitoes, bananas and Cain
at Waikiki. In its amended COM
plant, the defendant company al
.eges that its business is the raising
CT fish, ducks and various other prod
ucts on certain leased land in that
district. In doing so it uses the wa
tiers of Piinaio stream-or did before
the rival company got busy and
smashed its dams. This happened in
May, 1905, when the plaintiff COM
pany alleges that the defendants en-
tered its premises with force and
arms and broke down the dams and
prevented them being rebuilt. In
consequence of this act the fish and
ducks died, the vegetables dried up
ind the bananas wouldn't grow.
Because of this sad state of affairs
the plaintiffs allege they suffered
loss that amounted to exactly s1S1S.-
30, They, therefore, ask the court to
give them damages in that amount
for the produce destroyed. and they
think that they should have in addi-
lion the sum of $4,000 as exemplary

Home investments for
Savings Banks.

The Waterbury Record thinks
that the plan of having their Saw
ings Banks deposits invested at home
appeals to VermonterS, and that
this fact accounts largely for the
success OF the Hyde Park Savings
Bank, whose funds are all invested
in Vermont. 1t says.
Last Thursday, July II, was a
proud day for eX-Gov. G. S. Page.
The Lvmoille County Savings Bank,
of which Mr.. Page is president,
showed that the banks assets had
passed the million dollar mark, 1t
has been the motto OF the bank since
it was started that all its loans would
be in Vermont, and today not a
single dollar is loaned out of the
State. Ncrmonters like the plan OF
having their savings invested at
home, and depositorS like the idea
of having man of Mr.. Pages bust
ness ability at the head of the bank,
thus the principal reason why the
bank is so successful.
This Bank pays A per cent. com
pounded semi-annualIy ON deposits
of 500 on more, remaining in the

The Vermont Bird of Paradise.

Thanksgiving turkeys promise to
be scarce and dear. This is usually
the case about this time, but this
season the scarcity is really fact,
at least So far as Vermont birds are
concerned. Rhode Island and YER
mont used to furnish most of the
turkeys for New England's tables,
but now the supply from the former
state, and it is pretty small, goes to
New York, with the exception of the
premium bird destined for the
White House feast Vermont tur-
keys had a bad spring and many of
them persisted. Forty cents a pound
is the price fixed for turkeys from
that state when they reach the Bos-
ton market 1t is evident that the

festal character, will in the majority
of cases depend for its chief ingre-
dent upon the middle or distant
