were so badly burned that recognition
was made possible only by the size'of
the bodies. 4
The fre was caused by the explo-

room occupied by Miss Westhoff and
Hilda. This threw burning oil all over
the bed, instantly enveloping both oc-

time entered his room. He had just
time to grasp his sleeping brother by
the hair, pull him out of bed and
drag him downstairs. He awakened
mis- mother, who was sleeping down
stairs with Ada and the baby. Mrs.
Fuchs took the two infants into the
yard and then tried to rescue Hilda

Ada, u~nbeknown to anyone, follow

missed until too late to enter the
house and search for her.
The house was completely destroy

partly insured. Fuch was at Kamiah

SHE TENDED THE LIGHTHOUSE
In Husbands Absence She Took His
Place for Two Days.

New Haven, Conn, Jan. 14.-For
two nights, while the storm ragged on
the sound, Mrs. Samuel A. Armour,
alone in the Sperry lighthouse, two
miles from the shore, kept the lights
burning bright, kept the foghorn
sounding and did her duty like the
heroine hat she is. Yet during every
instant Of the two nights, while she
was warning sailors of the shoals and
rocks, Mrs. Armous was distracted by
the dread that her husband, the light
house keeper, had persisted. Today
she learned that he was drowned
Thursday night while trying to reach
her through the gale. Then and only
then, she collapsed for she loved him
dearly. Childless they lived together
in the lonely lighthouse for years.

ing before the Territorial Supreme court
I'm the matter of the Lanai land ez-
change But the actual transfer Of the
government holdings on that island
amounting to 1869 acres, can not be
effected for some time to come. Judge
Gear Of cOusel for L. L. McCandless,
secured an order this morning from
Chief Justice Frear, that the remitter
from the Supreme Court reversing the
lower court would be withheld for ten
days This action was taken by Gear,
in order to secure time to enable him
to prepare to take an appeal to the
Supreme Court Of the United States
The opinion given this morning, was by
a majority of the court. Justice Hart
well wrote the majoaity opinion in
which Chief Justice Frear concurred,
while Justice Wilder wrote a dissenting
opinion.
The title Of the case was L. L. Nc

Of the Territory Of Hawaii and James

court by the attorney general that the
temporary injunction relative to Gov

being that the court had no jurisdic-

morning from U. S. Marshal Hendry,

Inoushida Yoshida charged with con-
spiracy who was the sole defendant to
come before the court, failed to appear
for trial yesterday. Deputy Marshal
Temple was requested to Investigate the
matter and try to ascertain where the
man was.
Temple saw the bondsman Of the
defendant, "a japanese named Hello
Yoshida, and was informed by the lat
ter that the defendant was still at Hilo.
1t is undetermined whether the court
will continue the case for a day or so,
or else continue the matter indefinitely.
Proceedings to recover on the bond
may be instituted.

is false upon the face Of it. Japan
would never submit to such a thing
I'm the first place there Is no ques-
tion OF compromise Japan has not
gotten into any trouble. The people Of
California decided TO kick up q row and
Japan simply asked that her rights be
protected. She did not do anything but
ask the authorities I'm Washington to
straighten the matter out. How then
can Japan compromise?
Japan would never submit to such
an indignity as to have her subjects
excluded from the United States. There
would be such an uproar raised i'm Jap
an that the two countries would be
forced into war. 1t would be pleasant
indeed to have to be photographed be-

No I do not think that the United
states ever has considered the matter
seriously enough to make any pro-
posals along those lines.
There is one explanation also which
is given and that is that Hawaii and
the Philippines be eXampted from that
exclusion law. This could not be done
for when a man is in one state It would
be unconstitutional to bar him from
going into another It is only possible
20 do that with Hawaii any way. In
other states every state line would have
to be patrolled. There Is but one con-
clusion and that is that there is no
truth in the entire matter"
