WOOLLEY
ADMITTED
THE DISTINGUISHED PROHIBI-
TION ADVOCATE NOW A MEM
Der OF THE LOCAL BAR.

The Supreme Court was in session.
for a brief time this morning, with
Chief Justice Frear presiding on the
bench. The only matter of interest
which came up, however was the ad-
mission TO the bar of the Territory as
a practicing attorney, of Hon. John g..
Woolley, the nationally famed temper
ance advocate, who came here some
time ago at the instance of the Anti
Saloon League to help in the fight
against the liquor traffic in the Ter
ritory
Wooley took the oath in the pres
ence of quite a number of attorneys
who had gathered to see the ceremony,
and he afterwards paid his fee of $40
and received his certificate from Dep
marking as he did so that he must now
get out and hustle up a client from
whom he may get his ten dollars back
Woolley stated that he expected to
take up private practice in Homo
lulu. "Of course l have one client,
said he, land that is the Anti-Saloon
League. l haven't had time yet to get
in full touch with the liquor situation
here as yet, but have read the liquor
law, and think that it is fairly good
one No, from the reading 1 made,
which was not the most careful, l 90
not think that it will be easy to over
throw it on constitutional grounds"
Woolley stated that he believed the
law should be upheld and expressed a
desire to be fair in the matter to- both
sides. Regarding the Miguel case
which is now in the courts to test the
constitutionality of the law, Woolley
stated that he had not been advised,
and did not know whether or not ne
would be called upon to take a part in
the case.

MUTINY
OF CHINESE
THIRTEEN OF THEM MAKE A
RAID ON CAPTAINS CABIN ON
VALDIVIA.
Thirteen Chinos at the Captains door
Yo-ho, heave no!
Thirteen buckets of dead mems gore,
70, heave no, my hearties!

Marine Police officer Reeves saunt-
cred into the police station late Satur-
day night humming something to the
above effect. There had been mutiny
aboard the good steamship Valdivia,
Britisher, Captain Reid, from Newcas-
tie, with Goals"
1t was from the Valdivia when she
was last here that a Chinese cook es-
capped and Captain Reid had to put up
a bond to return and face the U. 5.
District Court and 1t Will cost him $500
fine If the Chinese Is not returned.
There seems little chance of his being
returned.
Since arrival in TINS port, ON August
g. Captain Reid has refused to give the
Chinese crew, numbering thirteen, any
spending money. He expects to lose
$500 on account of the Chinese cook
who deserted and he proposed to the
thirteen Chinese of his crew that they
promise to make up the $500 fine be-
tween them in case any one OF their
number should follow the cooks ex-
ample and clear out His suggestion
was not met favorably by the Oriental
sailors and they refused to organize
themselves into an insurance company
for the benefit of the captain. Where
upon the captain refused to allow then
any money to spend.
On Saturday the crew wanted cast
to pay for tobacco and other articles
of luxury and necessity purchased
from a Chinese storekeeper ashore
Captain Reid refused to dig unless
they guaranteed him against loss by
any further assertions.
The thirteen Chinese, in a body mu
tinted and went to the captains cabin
He closed and locked the door They
pounded on the door and created /;
great disturbance, making dire threats
| The captain got a messenger to TIM
police station and Officers Reeves ant
Apana went to the ship. There a coun
Gil was held, Apana acting as inter
| prefer. The Chinese still refused t
! protect the captain against any o
their number deserving and the captain
was firm in refusing to allow then
money. However, the peace confer
ence was more successful than an.
Hague affair and this morning the Chi
nese returned to wosk, probably awe
by the suggestion of irons and hand
cuffs and the danger of pounding on
door behind which might be loadet
gun.

Hawaii Ponoi, the national song and
Aloha De, till we meet again" no 9TH
er song is ever sung in Hawaii-it is
the great doXology of the islands.
Two native luaus were in store for
the visitors at Maui There was ride
up the lao valley, one of the most
beautiful in the world, and half way up
in the open forest, was spread feast
for the gods. Native women strewed
banana leaves and flowers upon the
grass in the form of horseshoe, and
upon these the feast was spread while
the guests sat upon the grass and dip
ped poi with their fingers and ate roast
pig that was dished up fresh from the
underground ovens close by where
it had been cooked with red-hot stones
wrapped in damp ii leaves. In the
center of the horseshoe, speakers fam
ed on the floor of the capitol, and local
Hawaiians spoke to each other, each
with his interpreter to make his words
known to all.
The other luau at Maui was at the
parting. 1t was given by a local Ha-
waiian judge and the natives, under
an open roofing built for such events.
Here the party made it's acquaintance
with raw fish, cuttlefish, live shrimp
real seaweed, and many other dishes
served only at the native feasts. Ma
tive girls decorated one and all with
the emblematic lei of the island, and
maids of honor kept the flies away
with royal feather wands Native
women and sedate congressman sat side
by side and dipped their fingers into
the same gourds of poi. Every one
became young again, and until the
speeches began no one would have
believed that there was a serious soul
in the assemblage.

party weairied of luaus. Climbing the

MUST FACE JURY
WILL HAVE OPPORTUNITY TO
PROVE LIQUOR WAS FOR HIS
OWN LUAU.

Judge Whitneys matinee today was
well attended Most notable OF the
cases disposed of was the charge OF
selling liquor on Sunday against Moore
of the Palace Saloon, the matter Oh
whose license renewal is about to come
before the Liquor License Commission.
Moore testified that he was shipping
some hard drink in hack for luau
at which he expected to be present, in
other words the liquor alleged to have
been sold was intended for himself and
was being sent on in advance.
Moore demanded a jury trial and
Judge Whitney said he could surely
have a jury trial in the Circuit Court,
to which his case was referred. Inspec-
tor Fennell beamed happiness at the

WAS HERE With
The CONGRESSMAN

The World Today contains az ex-
tended account of the Hawaiian tour of
the Congressional party recently here,
by Alexander Hume Ford, a New York
writer who was with the party. The
following are the main features.
A few days rest and investigation
at Honolulu and then the grand tour.
Molokai and it's leper settlement were
passed at night. 1t was scarce daylight
when the landing was made by barge
at Kahului on the island of Maui.
Here and at the little town of Wal
luku, a mile or so away, the company
were domiciled in hotels and private
houses. For the most part, these were
in reality Chinese and Japanese viii
lagos. One had to search diligently for
the residence or hut of a native Ha-
waiian, although these latter were well
represented at the great stone school
house that is the finest building on the
island. The schools on the Hawaiian
islands are usually the most modern of
all structures and the teachers are bet
ter paid than on the mainland, while
the proportion of those who read and
write is probably larger than on any
other spot on the globe, New England
not excepted. The event of the first
day ashore at Maui was the visit to
the school. The congressional party
was seated on chairs placed upon the
spacious lawn: Behind them were
gathered the Hawaiian fathers and
mothers, before them the five hundre0
school children of a dozen different ma
tionalities stood upon the spacious
porch and splendid stone steps, to sing
the national sons of America and Ha-
wall A little Chinese girl stepped
forth from the ranks to recite a speech
of welcome, to which one of the Con-
gressmen responded, and then a Ha-
waiian lad came forward to remind the
visitors that Hawaii was not an island
possession, or a captured province, but
that the island had sent L. A. Thurs
ton to Washington to bring back the
American flag, and he had done so
Even the Congressman joined-as best
they could-in the singing of Hawaii
Ponoi, after that boyish speech thai
reflected the true patriotic spirit of the
Hawaiians. Portuguese, Porto RicaI
and Korean children also babe the
visitors welcome, and when the closing
song aloha De" that plaintive, stirring
appeal, composed by the Queen herself
lifted itself on the air, there were few
dry eyes. The children marched in
doors to the closing strains for aftel

ing:
Mrs. w. A. Kinney met with an
accident last week that might have re-
suited very seriously, but fortunately
was limited to a severe snock and a
number of bruises.
The Kidneys had been spending the
day with Mr.. and Mrs. Francis Gay
and had been taken home by Mrs. Gay
in her automobile, that is to say, as
far as the road leading down to the
Laval beach house. Here they en-
ployed a Japanese hack drived to
bring them home. The road winds
along the side hill and at some places
has rather steep Drinks dropping of TO
the bottom of the gulch.
At one of these inconvenient places
the careless driver got his carriage too
far on the outer edge of the road, as all
of sudden it took tumble down the
twenty-foot embankment. Mr.. Kinney
saved himself by jumping as soon as he
felt the carriage careening but Mrs.
Kinney not realizing the danger re-
NAMED in the carriage and was hurled
along with a shower of each and stones
Mr.. Kinney found her stunned at the
bottom of the gulch, but closer examin
alton revealed that besides some very
painful bruises she had received no
serious injury. 1t seems almost
miracle that she was not killed out

A Gift to Sunset Home.

AS the result of the ambitions of two
ladies of Barton Landing, who are in
very poor health, and one boy, who as
sisted while he was confined to the house
by illness, Sunset Home is in possession
of a new quilt, which will bring much
comfort to the inmates, and which is
thoroughly appreciated by them and
also by the visitors of the Home. The
lady who is unable to walk is Mrs. Por-
ter Bailey, and the one who suffers from
rheumatism is Mrs. John Dodge, and
their efforts for the comforts of others is
very commcndable. We print below the
letter sent to the matron of the Home
suggesting the gift, and the quilt was
sent the first of February.
I'VE have in our neighborhood a lady
that has not been able to walk for the
past Is years, and another whose limbs
are so deformed by rheumatism that she
has not been able to do hardly any work
for more than % years, Both of the
ladies wish to do some good but feel as
though they were almost useless. Some
of us proposed making bed quilt for an
Old Ladies Home. The lady that could
not walk solicited pieces for the quilt;
and the lady with poor deformed hands
cut out the blocks, by cutting few at
a time. She could not sew stitch, but
could hold her scissors in such way as
to be able to cut pieces for the blocks.
The neighbors took the pieces and made
the blocks. One boy had the measles and
while confined to the house pieced nearly
half of the blocks, and the result of it all
is that we have pretty quilt. Ifyou
care enough for it to pay express will
send it any day."
