CONCESSION TO VATICAN.
France Willing to Modify Contracts
With Priests.

PARIS, February lin anticipation of
the rejection by the Vatican authorities of
the form of contract for the lease Of the
churches proposed by NJ. BRAND, the min
lister Of education, the government has al
lowed 1t to be publicly understood that 1t is
willing to accept modification making the
contracts run eighteen years and for the
benefit of the parish priest named or his
successor fulfilling the same conditions"
This will surmount the objection raised
by the Vatican that every time a parish
priest is changed a new contract must be
negotiated with the commune or municipal

Called Him BLACKBOARD.

You have testified that you called him
'blackguard.' I take it this % is an
abbreviation of that word?'
Yes, sir"
Did you ever hear Mr.. Thaw refer to
threats made against his life by Stanford
white?'
Mr.. Jerome at once objected on the
ground that in plea of self-defense the
defendants own statements are not admis-
sib!e. Mr.. Delmas claimed that these
threats had been made and it was compe-
tent to prove that Thaw armed himself
after hearing these threats.
Justice Fitzgerald held that there was no
rule of law which will allow the defend
ants own claims that threats were made
against his life.
Mr.. Delmas claimed that if he could show
that the defendants statements were the
result of insane decisions he would have
the right to show them.
Justice Fitzgerald sustained the objection.
and Mr. Delmas noted an exception.
He then returned to Mrs. Thaw and said:
Mrs. Thaw, the name of May Mackenzie
has been mentioned a number of times in
this case. Will you state when you first met
herr"
Il think 1t was in 1901"
Did you ever tell Mr.. Thaw of a visit
made to May Mackenzie when she was sick
in hospital and when Stanford White was
PRESENT.
Yes
state what you told Mr.. Thaw."
Mr.. Jerome objected, claiming that this
was another case of piling up cumulative
evidence without the essential fact being
first shown.
Elementary Insanity.
The defendant under this ruling Is in an
unfortunate condition, said Mr. Delmas
I'VE are trying to prove the mental condi-
ton of the defendant by his looks, acts and
declarations. He was momentarily insane
and We are trying to prove 1t by series
of acts before and after this occurrence"
Justice Fitzgerald sustained the objection
Mrs. Thaw, did you in any conversation
with your husband state to him that after
your marriage May Mackenzie had said.
when she told Stanford White that you
were married and living happily with Your
husband, that
Mr., Jerome's objection to this also was
sustained.
Carried Pistol in New York.
Mr.. Delmas said it was impossible for
him TO frame the question more broadly
and he would have to note an exception.
Did you ever pistol in Mr.. Thaws

He never carried the pistol except when
in New York.
You have heretofore recalled some events
of Christmas eve, 1903: state whether at
that time or subsequently Mr.. Thaw made
any declaration to you as to his being fol-
lowed by malefactors who were set upon
him by Stanford White with a design upon
his life?"

had objected.

ly could get drinks inside if they had
the price.
The board will consider this matter
further. In other respects the board
had no complaint to make regarding
the place.
The applications of John D. Holt for
a license to run a saloon at King and
River streets. the premises formerly
known as the Asahi saloon, and of
Yang Zip Kee for a wholesale license
were heard. On behalf of the China
man it was stated that he had long
been a merchant. Last year he ran
a place with q fifth-class license at
Waipahu. This year it was conceived
that as the saloons were not allowed
to deliver goods except at the saloons,
a need for places with wholesale Il
censes who could so deliver goods had
been created, and it was this need that
Yang wanted to attempt TO fill.
The board turned down both the ap-
plicatiOns.
1t is said that a number of saloon
keepers have said to the board that
in view of the business that Scotty is
doing they thought they would ask to
be allowed to surrender their saloon
licenses and take out restaurant IL
censes, the license fee being $3.50 year
less.

WHILE ABROAD
Delegate Reports to Endeavor-
ers on His Trip to
Seattle.

Moses K. Nakuina, who represented
Hawaii at the convention of Christian
Endeavorers recently held in Seattle,
reported on his trip at meeting of
the local Endeavorers at the Central
Union church last night, giving a good
account of the work of the convention
and his own share therein. Mr.. Naku-
ina stated that he had paid especial
attention to the branch of the conven-
ton dealing with the work among the
juniors and had received instruction
and pointers which would help him
Immensely in his work here. From the
speeches to which he had listened he
had realized, he said, that while the
workers in Honolulu thought that they
We're doing great deal, as matter
of fact they were doing only small
part of the work which should be done.
The habit of passing on the work from
one to another was much too prevalent
here as it was elsewhere.

and Territories represented were sup
posed to have one of their number sing
their state song. Arkansas, like Ha-

when they called upon me for my
state song said the speaker II saia,

is one thing we can do down there, ard
that is sing. and I sang them Hawaii

'T went to Victoria. Victoria is q
nice place. And that ride on the SOUND!
It is different from Diamond Head; so
nice and quiet. On the boat they ask
ed me to sing, and all I could think

When I got through they asked me
what it was and I told them. TT is
pretty they said. Come to Hawaii
and you will be in Beautiful Eden

CANADIAN OPERATORS
TAKE HAND IN STRIKE

The following notices were posted at
the cable Office yesterday by Super
intendent Gaines:
Telegraph operators in Canada re-
fuse to transmit messages from the
United States or coming through the
United States.
Messages for Canadian destination
will be mailed from the nearest point
in the United States"
Owing to Canadian operators re-
fusal to handle messages coming
through the United States, messages
for Australia should circulate via Ma
Mia instead of Bamfield for the pres
ent"
In connection with this it is inter-
esting to know that a cablegram and
the money We're refused at Tanning Is
land, from Miss Marie Halls manager
to w. D. Adams here, which of course
had to go to Canada and be caoled
back via San Francisco.
There has undoubtedly been strong
effort made by the strikers to induce
the cable men to go out with them.
It is not likely they will be able to do
so. 1t is said that if the cable OPP
orators should strike on the PACING
cable, the United States Government
would take a hand, as it would not
permit it's communication with the
Philippines to be broken.
