A REAL ESTATE TRANSACTION.
That Leaves Doubt as to Who Will
 Get a Commission on It.

The records yesterday morning showed q real estate transaction of re- cent date. that to certain parties in terested in one way and another, brings out a peculiar and unusual condition of affairs The situation is something like this: A certain small ranch was listed with two different real estate agencies for sale. Both agents at diff ferent times took the same party out to the ranch and made a strong effort to bring about a sale. There was noth- ing doing for either of them, though 1t was very evident that the prospective buyer was strongly impressed with the place. He held off. however. and the owner of the plafe. short time ago. and after the man had figured with the two agents. withdrew the place from the market. A day or two later he rented it to the man who had con- sidered buying for a year. From the record il appears that a few days later that formal transfer of the property was made without the help of either agent Now both agents lay claim to the commission and those familiar with the case are speculating as to whether or not either of them will get a commits sion or whether both will.

IMMORTALITY FOUND
AMONG THE YOUNG

That a most shocking state Of i'm
morality exists among some Of the
young Portuguese in the Punahou
neiGhborhOod was revealed in the PU-
lice Court this morning. Five young
defendants appeared before Judge
Andrade this morning. -Four Of these
were boys, namely: David Martin,
aged 10; John EnOs, aged II; Manuel
Gomez, aged 10; and Manuel Madeir-
Os, aged is. They all pleaded guilty
to having had Illicit relations with a
young girl, named Louisa Rosa, ana
were sent to the Reform School for a
year each, with the exception of Ma
dcirOs, who was fined $50 and costs.
The girl, pretty lass Of - sum
mers, pleaded guilty of the charge as
far as Martin was concerned, but de-
MED her guilt as regards the others.
The Court stated that II TOOK no
stock in her denial, and sentenced
her to term OF one year in the In
dustrial School for Girls.
Both Prosecutor Brown and c. +.
ChiIIingworth, who appeared for the
girls father asked that the Court
deal severely with all the defendants
In order that an example might be
created which might put Il stop to
the reign of immortality which it had
been discovered was prevalent in
that part Of town. The police state
that number of young girls and
boys there are guilty Of similar
crimes, and it is possible that still
further steps will be taken to stamp
out this deplorable state Of affairs.
