CONFESSIONS IN
MORMON MEETING
Testimony Given in Court
Mrs. kekau0ha Takes
the Stand.

| The United States has rested in the
Mormon case and the defense has
begun the Introduction of testimony
After Judge Dole announced his de-
cision yesterday morning that the con-
fession made in the Mormon church
meeting. if one was made, was not a
privileged communication. but was one
about which testimony could be given,
Assistant United States Attorney
Dunno began putting in testimony
concerning it. Several witnesses who
were present at the meeting testified
to the proceedings and to the confess
sion made by George and Anna. None
of the witnesses refused to testify
when asked about it.
They all agreed that both the de-
PENDANT George Kekauoha and the
woman Amia confessed their guilt in
the meeting, promised amendment, and
We're absolved. They varied consider
ably as to the details. According to
one witness, Anna rose and confessed
her guilt, and then George rose and
confessed his guilt. Neither, however
stated time or place.
The defense put on the stand Mrs.
Kekauoha, the wife of the defendant,
who gave testimony tending to contra
dict the testimony of witnesses for the
prosecution that she had instigated a
watch on her husband to detect him in
Illicit wiles. She also testified that the
lamp which some of the witnesses tes-
titled to seeing extinguished after
George and Anna had gone into the
house and pulled down the blinds, had
been broken about Christmas, nearly
two months before the blind closing
episode.
The case will continue today.

4 WEEK Of ARGUMENT
IN THE LOWR|E CASE

The whole week will be devoted to
the 100000 Lowrie case, if necessary,
by Judge Robinson. There is only one
jury case set for trial this week before
him, and it is expected that in that
case jury will be waived and the case
will go to Judge De Bolt.
From the looks of preparations, the
whole week will be needed for the
argument. There are a number of mo-
tons before the court or in sight. The
argument yesterday almost reached the
stage of arguing demurrer that had
not been filed, to an amended COM
plant that was not a part of the rec
ord. However. it was agreed to take
up two or three of the motions pend
ing and argue them together The
argument will begin at o'clock this
morning.

FORFEITED BAIL COMES
To A GO0DLY SUM

Judge Andrade sat down to a full
calendar in the police court yesterday
morning, twenty-six cases being brought
to his judicial attention. The number
of prisoners in the dock was some less
than this, the nine Chinese gamblers
arrested in a raid at Wahiawa on Sat
urday night by Special Officers Reeves
and G. Keawehaku preferring to forfeit
their ten dollars bail each than to APP
pear for trial. Two other gamblers
also forfeited their deposits and one
drunk did the same, making a total of
SIG for the treasury from forfeited
money alone. Various other sums came
in. Three Hawaiian crap shooters con-
tributed $21 between them, two Chi
nese gamblers came up with ten each
and one drunk swelled the pile by chip
ping in four.
Garland, the Fort Shafter represen-
tative on the list, who was up for trial
for threatening to carve Dora *. Lam
caster up, had his case stricken, it be
ing represented to the court that he
was about to be eourtmartialed at the
Fort on serious charge and would
probably get his there.
KIM, Korean who had been caught
prowling around the rooms of a num-
Der of japanese and being without a
valid excuse for his presence, was sent
to the reef for sixty days.
The case against Shimura, a Japa-
nese hack driver, who ran over Porto
Rican boy last week, breaking three
of his victim s ribs and scalping him,
had the charge of needless driving
against him put over until Monday
next, by which time it is expected
that the boy will be out of the hos
pital and able to appear and tell his
story.
The eases against four japanese
hotelkeepers, charged with refusing to
pay their license fees, went over until
Wednesday, to allow them to secure
counsel.

Flies and Typhoid Fever

New Orleans is threatened with an epidemic of typhoid fever, and Dr. O'Reilly, chairman of it's board of health, advises all householders to screen their windows against flies and to boil the water and milk they con sume. The common house fly is con sidered the chief spreader of the germs of the disease. Many of the 14O cases in New Orleans are located in converted stables, about which there are myriads of flies.
 We need not trouble ourselves with an inquiry as to where or how the first case in q locality swallowed typLoid germ. The thing to do is to fight down first cases, and in crder to io this effectively we must fight the bnuse flies. Their feet pick up the
The Birmingham age-herald., 1907-07-12

dangerous typheld germs to unload them on feed that goes down the throat, In that way the germ Is lodged where it can begin its dread- full work in the human system.
 Birmingham may possibly have a battle to fight not unlike New Orleans and we should begin at once to keep out house flies and to boil milk and water, The coming man will pre-. vent the incubation of either house flies or mosquitoes, and he will live, as pr, Wiley suggests, to be one hun. dred years old, but in this backward age we let both hatch out freely, snd all we can do in a crisis is to screen them out of fortunate houses. The poor who live in unscreened houses have no security against disease germs.

THE ROAD TO FORTUNE.
One Boy Who Struck It By Making a Good Job of Sweeping a Sidewalk.

From the Washington Post.
 ''rhe best boy I ever hired" said the store manager, Was one l chanced to see once sweeping off sidewalk.
 You know how many boys-and many men for that matter-sweep a sidewalk. They leave a streak of dirt here and there, make a poor job Of it generally an pay no attention to the passerby. They are slack and indifferent, and they do whatever other work they have to do, you can make up your mind, in just the same way. But this boy that I'm speak ing of was making another sort of job of it.
 He dug into the corners up by the building and made 1t nice and trim there, and then, and working quickly, too, with sidewalk absolutely clean; and at the same time as he worked he kept his eyes open, had some thought for other people besides k.mself and some sense of re- sponsibility. He was a worker and good worker. You knew he'd do whatever else he had to do in just the sanle way.
 About three months after that we had occasion to hire another boy, and, curi- ously enough, as it semed to me, that boy applied for the job. He didn't need any other recommendation to me than the work I'd seen him doing. sweeping the sidewalk, and we hired him on the spot and he's been with us ever since, advancing steadily.
 What? No; he isn't a partner yet but he's getting on, and you can set it down as a simple fact that any boy you see making a good, square job of sweep ing off a sidewalk will do well anything he undertakes

Biennial Sessions

The Mobile Register acquiesces at the close of an article in the proposed submission of a constitutional propo- sition to bring back biennial sessions of the legislature. But before it ac- cepts the proposed referendum it says After four years experience 1t is not demonstrated to our satisfaction that we require the more frequent meet ings, especially when we have in view the provision empowering the gov time when. in his judgment, such ses- \sions are needed
 This statement of the possibility of special sessions is neither accurate nor comprehensive. The governor can it is true, call a special session at any t.me, but he must state specifically" in his proclamation leach matter" concerning which the action of the aNoiSiN'hiN 10 dN1iitu uCCtoSdIg. OO far as nine bills out of ten are con cerned this would be no session at all. Tfe minor and local needs would scarcely be recognized in such call, and indeed it is a legal question whether they should have place in a proclamation concerning a special ses. sion, for the constitution limits spe- cial sessions to "extraprdinary occa- sions.' The governor has no right to call special sessions except lon extra ordinary occasions" and the supreme court has never defined the phrase as il appears in the constitution of 1903.
 The development of the state can not be maintained through the device of special sessions irregularly called and subject to the caprices of one man. Full and real and open sessions of the legislature are needed once in two years, in this state, and the ex- perience of forty-four other states confirms the experience of Alabama in this matter.

RIDICULOUS AND MIscHlEvoUs.
The Proposed Spectacular Cruise of
 the 16 Battleshps.

From the New York Sun.
 And yet the conflict here is so direct, so unmistakable, so serious, that 1t is impossible for any candid person to study the various statements and escape the unpleasant conclusion that on the part of one of the three gentlemen, MT Loeb, Mir Roosevelt and Mir. Metcalf, there has been conscious, nay, deliberate, mis- representation.
 Thus if full credit is to be given to Mr. Metcalf's statement, there has been a premature disclosure of plan which should have been guarded strictly as a departn. ent secret until the proper time came for it's announcement. If either the first or the second of the two Loeb versions of Mir. Roosevelt's statement is accurately reported, MT. Metcaf has been guilty of an indiscretion which might well cost him his portfolio. If. on the other hand, MT Metcaf, although indiscreet, has been absolutely truthful what are we to think and how are we to speak of the amazing sequence of utterarces from Sagamore Hill?
 Already the Pacific enterprise, what ever it may really have been, is hope lpSSlX GntanEl6u III tne IluIculOuS. u IS variously represented now as an insig- nifcanC voyage of practice, which might easily be directed to the Mediterranean or the South Atlantic; as an object lesson of the future value of the Panama ca nal; as an incentive to liberal appro- priations for battleship construction; as a display for the benefit of those inhabi- tants of the slope who don't get chance to see many of our fine war vessels; as a spectacular sequel to Secretary Roots benefcent voyage around South Amer lea, and as a far-sighted attempt to i'm press a friendly oriental neighbor with the extent and preparedness of our na- val resources.
 in the aforementioned aspect it would have been entirely legitimate if pursued in silence or with a fralS avowal of the purpose, and in either case it would per haps have been welcomed by the not un- intelligent nation for whose instruction 1t was designed; but, promoted under a false explanation, or under irreconcilia- ble explanations from official sources 1t becomes at the same time preposterous anu exceedingly mischievous in it's pos sibilities-as mischievous, perhaps, as anything in a long succession of hair trigger policies.
