NUMBERS TO DISTINGUISH

Cars Will Carry White HIumi-
mated Boxes at Each End
in Near Future

All streetcar lines of the United
Railroads will hereafter be distin-
guished for the convenience of the
public by numbers AS soon as the
company can have little boxes con-
structed In conspicuous position on
the front and rear ends of each car.
IN which large white numbers will be
placed, so arranged that they will be
illuminated by night, the new system
will go into effect. To prevent any
confusion the car lines will still bear
their old names, but 1t is claimed that
the numbering method. which is In
vogue In many continental cities, will
soon become very popular with the
public.

WAS MEASURED
IN ROTH's SHOP
Runaway Hack Horse Dashes
Through Doors Into Tailor
ing Establishment.

A hack horse measured its length in
Roth's tailor shop yesterday morning,
but as the cutter was absent, being
Sunday, no other measures were taken
except by the police to get the animal
back into the street.
The horse was driven to a hack be-
longing to Fred Rocha of the Bethel
street stand. Rocha started down the
street, but, the horse slipping on the
wet pavement, the reins were pulled
out of his hands. The horse started
to run away, and after endeavoring to
get possession of the reins again,
ROeha jumped. The horse continued
down the street and dashed into the
closed doors of Roth s shop.
The doors were carried away entire
ly, and the horse went through the
doorway and plunged into the shop,
leaving the hack outside. The horse
was slightly injured and considerable
damage was done to the hack. The
doors and glass were so shattered that
corrugated iron had to be used to
close up the entrance

OFFICIALS SEE
GARDEN ISLAND
J. w. Pratt, M. Campbell and
Acting Governor Made Plans
on a Flying Visit.

LIHUE, Kauai, November sS.-
James W. Pratt, Commissioner of
Public Lands, and Marston Campbell,
Superintendent of Public Works. left
Kauai in the Kinau last Monday after
having made flying trip over the Is
land in company with Acting Govern
or Mott-Smith and gathered data for
considerable work to be undertaken
here in the near future.
Mr. Campbell estimates that a suit
able embankment at Waimea can be
built for $4,000. The appropriation
now available is therefore far short,
and he does not like to begin a job
before he can see possibility of get
ting through with it. According to
the Superintendent, it viii be neces-
sary to build an embankment ON both
sides in order to so contract the river
that the increased force of the current
will keep the mouth of the river open.
Mr.. Campbell objects to the plan
for relocating the road up the Eleele
hill, as it would burden the Territory
with an outlay of $1,000. He claims
that the old plantation road up the
hill and past the postoffice and the
manager s house can be made as easy
of grade with less expense and with
no trouble in obtaining right of way.
At Kalaheo the officials looked into
the matter of a permanent water sup
ply for the homesteaders in that sec
ton. An excellent site for reservoir
was found on the McBryde Sugar Co. IS
land, and a tentative offer of exchange
of other government land for it was
rendered, though nothing decisive in
the matter will be done until the Act
ing Governor returns to town.
The party took look at the Hama
lei beach lots, which it is proposed
to open up for residence purposes. The
surveyor was instructed to go ahead
with drawing the lines so that the sale
of the lots could take place in the
near future.
The three officials put in most of
their time trying TO solve the knotty
Kappa problem. The result of the in
vestigations was a decision to throw
open the cane lands in the near future,
in lots of seventy-fve to one hundred
acres, and the pineapple lands in five
to forty-acre lots. This will, however,
not be done until the water problem
has been worked out, and the proper
distribution been decided upon. An
excellent site for large reservoir was
found on the land, and with this as
a starting point, Superintendent Camp
bell intends to lay his plans when he
returns in two or three weeks to per-
feet the details of the water system.
The town sites at Kappa and Ana
hola were examined and tentative
plans for supplying both with water
for household purposes were taken up. |
Mr.. Mott-Smith sees lot of work |
still on Kauai and has therefore re-
manned behind, looking into various |
matters, among others the evidence on |
which some of the Orientals claim Ha- |
waiian birth certificates. The demand |
for them has been lively here on Ka- |
uai, but some of the claims seem to
be supported by very doubtful right, |
to put it mildly. Mr.. Mott-Smith |
wants to see the case clear before he !
puts his signature to the mueh-sought |
certificates.

SHORE DUTY Of
UNCLE SANS MARINES

Following the recommendation of
several line officers of the Navy, nota
bly, Rear Admiral Evans, the Presi-
dent has directed the gradual with.
drawal of marines from all the vessels
of the Navy. assigning them to shore
duty exclusively.
Marine officers assert that the Pres
ident s action in hard blow to the
Marine Corps, the entire history of
which is associated with the Navy in
engagements afoat as well as ashore.
Some officers of the corps charge GER
tain naval officers with jealousy of the
fine record of the marines on war
ships and with secretly intriguing for
the abolition of the eorps as an unnec-
essary appendage.
One of them said today that there
is really less need for the Marine
Corps on shore than there is on ship
board. and that the duties now as
signed to the corps could be just as
well performed by the Army.
The President s order, which was is
sued today after conference with AS
sistant Secretary Newberry, is as fol-
lows:
"In accordance with the power
vested in me by section 1919, Revised
Statutes of the United States, the fol
lowing duties are assigned to the
United States Marine Corps:
"CD To garrison the different navy
yards and naval stations. both within
and beyond the continental limits of
the United States.
''t2) To furnish the first line of the
mobile defense of naval bases and
naval stations beyond the continental
limits of the United States.
"'(3) To man such naval defenses
and to aid in manning. if necessary.
such other defenses as NAV be erected
for the defense of naval bases and
naval stations beyond the continental
limits of the United States
"(4l To garrison the Tsthiam Canal
Zone. Panama.
900 To furnish such garrisons and
eXpeditionarv forces for duties beyond
the seas as may be necessary in time
of peace. -

ing noted. Then the papers went the
rounds of the jury box.
| Mr.. Milverton at o'clock addressed
the jury briefly, stating at the outset
that there could be no reasonable
doubt of defendant s guilt. His ex-
PLANTATION of possession of the horse
had been absolutely proved false by
the evidence in Eebuttal. Another false
statement by Everett, as fully proved,
was that he had asked the Honolulu
District Court to permit him to intro
duce the receipts on his examination
there Prosecutor Brown had testified
he said nothing about receipts in the
court below.
Mr. Brock opened on the question of
degrees, arguing that the animal was
not worth $50 and hence its stealing
not first degree larceny He contended
that Everett S testimony had not mate
rally been shaken except by Higgins,
who was interested in the case and,
moreover, was very fond of the old
mare. Higgins was represented as be
ing unreliable, further, because FIVE
minutes after he wrote the paper in
court, when it was shown to him, he
could not remember having written it.
If defendant was found guilty, Hug
gins would take the horse away and
have the 500 Everett said he paid to
him besides.
After an absence of about half an
hour the jury returned verdict of
guilty as charged.
Judge Lindsay roasted the negro to
a turn in pronouneing sentence. He
said he had no doubt the defendant
wrote and signed all of the receipts.
His record showed he was not a fit
man to be at large. The court had a
mind to give him the utmost limit of
ten years, but made it five with the
advice to Everett to leave the coun-
try as soon as he got out of prison.

MATTHEW 20.
l For the kingdom of heaven is like
unto a man that was a householder.
who went out early in the morning to
hire laborers for his vineyard. 2 And
when he had bgreed with the laborers
fer a shilling day. he sent them into
his vineyard. And he went out about
the third hour, and saw others stand
ing in the marketplace idle; 4 and to
them he said, Go We also into the vine
yard and whatsoever is right I will
give you. And they went their way.
Again he went out about the sixth
and the ninth hour, and did likewise.
8 And about the eleventh hour he went
out, and found others standing: and he
saith unto them, Why stand We here
all the day idle? They say unto him,
Because no man hath hired u.s. He
saith unto them, Go. We also into the
vineyard. And when even was come.
the lord of the vineyard saith unto his
steward, Call the laborers, and pay
them their hire, beginning from the
last unto the first. And when they
came that were hired about the elev-
enth hour, they received every man a
shilling. 10 And when the first came
they supposed that they would receive
more: and they likewise received every
man shilling. II And when they re-
celved it, they murmured against the
householder Il saying, These last have
spent but one hour, and thou hast made
them equal unto us, who have borne
the burden of the day and the scorching
heat. Is But he answered and said to
one of them, Friend. I do thee no
wrong: didst not thou agree with me
for shilling? IA Take up that which
is thine and go thy way; it is my will
to give unto this last, even as unto
thee. Is Is it not lawful for me to do

eye evil, because I am good? 16 So the |
last shall be first, and the first last.

EVERETT GOES
UP FIVE YEARS
He Commits Forgery to Clear
Himself of Horse
Stealing.

Joe Everett, a very black and very
bad man, goes to the penItentiary fol-
five years from yesterday under sen
tence for horse-stealing. 1t viii be
more by good luck than by even his
undoubted foxiness if Joe does not have
to stand a trial also for forgery, grow
ing out of his desperate efforts to
prove innocence of the charge under
which the jury found him guilty.
The trial of the rogue began yester-
day. morning before Judge Lindsay. I'm
der an indictment for larceny in the
first degree, the specification was that,
on the fourth of December last, Everett
stole a bay mare belonging to a. Hug
gins, of the value of $175. Assistant
County Attorney F. W. Milverton APP
peared for the prosecution, and A. t.
Brock, assigned by the court, for the
defendant.
Charles Butzke, Wentworth NJ.
Buchanan, Frank Godfrey, Thomas w.
Carroll, o. H. Walker, William f.
Story, Prank J. Robello, A. W. Van
Valkenburg, John H. Jones, James
Stuart Sharp, Clifford Kimball and
John w. Macdonald were the jury.
Positive evidence of J6e's unlawful
acquisition of the animal was connect
ed and conclusive enough. The de-
tense set up by Joe, on the witness
stand, was that he bought the horse
for 800 from Higgins, paying $50
down and the rest in instaIments. He
showed what purported to be receipts
for these payments, but the body and
signature of each were identical in
penmanship-a fair style of business
chirography at that--and at a glance
were identifable as the handwriting of
Everett when compared with them in
a letter he had written on the subject
of baseball.
George Waterhouse, called as an ex-
pert in rebuttal, gave his sworn opinion
that the receipts were signed by their
writer and written by the same hand
as was the letter bearing the signature
of the defendant. Higgins, on the |
stand, had by direction copied one of
the receipts, signature and all, and Mr..
Waterhouse testified, direct and cross, |
that it would be impossible for the |
writer of that exhibit to write the |
body and signature of the original. |
The signatures of the receipts were
warranty as .'Hogans'' and
. Higgins. y They could not stand a |
moments comparison with the clear
though shaky signature of the old |
hackman, "a. Higgins" appended to
the complaint in the warrant.
Just before the case was given to

is And behold, one came to him and
said, Teacher. what good thing shall 1
do, that I may have eternal life? II
And he said unto him, Why askest
thou me concerning that which is
good? One there is who is good: but
