HARRY BYNC
HEARD FROM

oldtimers will remember Harry
Byng. barber to King Kalakaua in
1887. He was prolific of opinions on
all questions of statecraft and philos-
ophy and wrote verses by the yard
for the papers. After he left Honolulu
he travelled for some years In the
Oceanic steamers on the Australian
mail route. The newspaper men who
published his random talks and jingles
while he lived here were never with
out a call from him when his steamer
touched at Honolulu.
Now Mr.. Byng is heard from again in
a letter addressed to one of his editor
ial friends OF twenty years ago. who
has long since passed away, but bear
ing an alias address to another one now
on the Advertiser staff. He writes
from Hoquiam, Wash. under date OF
December %. enclosing the following
newspaper clipping:
HAWAIIAN STRING BAND.
Harry NJ. Byng was out last even
ing with his Hawaiian string band,

did not neglect The washingtonian.
The boys are employed In the local
mills and their music and singing are
typical of the Hawaiian isles. They
are capable OF giving excellent music
for parties, excursions, etc, and should
be encouraged"
In his letter Mr.. Byng says:
Dear Friend: You will be surprised
to hear from me after all these years,
but on my return here from London.
Eng. thought that I would write to
you to let you see that had not for
gotten you and the Hawaiian Islands.
my dear friend, / met several ma
tives from Honolulu here In this town
and they are good musicians. Each
one plays the guitar and violin and I
took them around to my friends. who
welcomed them and they played beau
tifully and sang the Hawaiian songs.

lighted with them. but one OF them by
the name of Willie Chairman, while

his body. and broke his left arm In

THE M'CANDLESS
BRIEF ON LANAI

The reply brief Of Judge Gear, at
torney for l.. L. McCandless, In the
injunction proceedings taken out
against the sale of the island of La
mai, to the brief of the respondent, the
Land Commissioner, was filed yester-
day. This brief is filed to show the
interest In law of McCandless in the
Lanai transfer, asked for by Judge De
Bolt.
The brief recites the fact that the
island OF Lanai is now under lease and
is producing a revenue for the govern
ment and the proposed exchange does
not specify that income producing prop
erty will be secured by the government.
As taxpayer McCandless has an in
terest In the income OF the government
and right to enjoin the Land Com
missioner from making the proposed
exchange.
Another ground for objection is that
the exchange is tantamount to a sale,
whereas the sale OF public land by
the Land Commissioner in amounts
greater than 1000 acres Is beyond his
power conferred by law.
The brief contains general discus
sion OF the land policy OF the admin
istration and the ideas OF President
Roosevelt concerning the desirability
OF establishing here a substantial mid
die class of citizens.

NO SUNDAY SPORTS
WITH ADMISSION FEE

ut is not the intention Of the Civic
Federation to attempt to stop Sunday

kind" said Ed. Towse Wednesday, but

sports or any Sunday exhibitions to
which an admission fee is charged.

| feet. He thinks in this along the
French way, that healthful exercise
which can not be INDUCED in by good
many through the week can very prop
erly be enjoyed on Sunday, but there
should be no charge made for specta-
tors at these sports. AS soon as q
charge is made 1t brings those par
ticipating in the games in the ranks Of
workers. and DR.. Scudder believes, with
US, that no man should do unnecessary
work on Sunday. That Is the idea I'M
DERIVING the bill we are preparing and
which we will attempt to get passed
by the Legislature" Il
The bill in question Is one being
drafted by Senator Dickey, acting for
the Civic Federation, the two main OBJ
jects of which are to prevent any
games being played on Sunday for
which an admission fee Is charged, as
well as exhibitions of other kinds, and
to prevent the keeping open of the nu-
merous grocery and general stores OF
Chinatown, which take advantage now
of the refreshment clause of the law.
The bill would put stop effectually
20 the playing of Sunday baseball by
either of the big leagues at baseball
park, which depend on the gate to sup
port their teams. Such games as are
played during the season at Aala Park
would not be interfered with 1t would
have the effect also of closing the
Aquarium and the Zoo on Sundays,
which a prominent member
Of the Federation Is quoted as saying
that this had been considered and 1t
was thought that these places could
either close up or allow free admission.

MONEY FOR
LEGISLATURE
cFrom Wednesdays Advertiser.l

The subject just now occupying the
thoughts OF the members of the Legis-
lature. as well as the Territorial Cen
trail Committee, is the expenditure of
the thirty thousand dollars appropri-
ated by the Federal Congress for the
expenses of the Legislature of Hawai-
for 1907. II appears that the money is
to be disbursed through the office of the
Secretary of the Territory, and he is to
furnish bonds not to use any part OF
IL unless he has positive assurance that
the session will be completed within the
sixty days
Persons familiar with the expenses
connected with a session say that the
sum allowed by Congress will not be
sufficient for IT and that 1t will be i'm
possible to get through with the sum
allowed. In the past there has been
considerable graft in translating and
typewriting the bills, but, excluding
this it is stated that thirty thousand
dollars will not cover the bill. The fig
ures supplied are those of the last
session and are as follows:

Fight for It.

Primghar, Aug S.--Claiming that j.

not the common law husband of Miss
Eecta j. Pond, who died last week In.
Dales township. near here, leaving ar!
estate valued ait many thousands o..
dollars, the deceaseds brother and Sis
ter, DR.. Pond of Sioux Rapids, and
Mrs. r. p. Jones, of Primghar, have
filed objections to the appointment CT
II. l.. Williams as administrator. Will
Hams was appointed upon the request
of Boyington.
When the case comes to trial many
sensations are promised. For a num-
Der of years Boyington made his home
with Miss Pond, and claims to be her
husband by a common law marriage.
He seeks to secure an old statute
which recognizes common law, mar
riages where the parties have lived to-
gether for a term of years.
The land owned by Miss Pond is
part of the disputed railroad govern
ment land which has been in court for
so long, but to which she obtained title.
Boyington also filed on a piece of this
land, but was defeated in the litiga-
ton that followed. He claims that it
was the intention of the woman and
himself to have legal service per-
formed, but that upon the advice Of
their attorneys they did not marry for
fear of having to forfeit one of their
claims to the homestead lland.
The land in question IS worth about
$50 per acre and the brother and sis
ter do not propose to let it go TO
Boyington without a contest. They
filed objections to the appointment OF
Williams as administrator, but not I'M
til the papers had been issued by the
clerk Now they have employed coun-
sci and will take the matter into court,
claiming that the couple were never
married, that Miss Pond had Within a
few days of her death said that Boy
ington was only a renter, living in her
house and conducting the place on
shares. that he was entitled to half
interest in the personal property. hut
