and White Rocks.
zone striking popularity noticed was
the almost total absence Of purple bar
ring on the black varieties. The whites
we're also a surprise, as one would nat
urally suppose the hot sun would cause
brassiness in all the whites, but there
were numerous as snow white speei-
mems as can be found among a like
number anywhere. The different varie-
ties OF games were also a feature of
the show, several fine specimens being
shown.
"As have said. the boys there don't
object to paying a fair price for good
birds, and I would advise anyone
securing an order from there, to be
very careful and send stock worth the
price, and they can follow it with
more orders. but if poor stock is palm
ed of on them. it is likely to come
back with thanks.
Summed up by classes. the Barred
Rocks were the largest display. They
were a remarkably uniform lot, many
fine specimens being shown. Nearly
all of them were up to weight and
some considerably over weight. Not a
poor bird was shown in the whole
lot, and many of the winners would
stand well in any company. There was
almost an entire absence of brass in
all of them. and the barring was gem
orally very distinct and even. Fifty
nine in the lot.
''The White Rocks were a dream.

CAUSE CELEBRE
ON FOOT AGAIN
American Missions $4,000
Claim in Supreme
Court.

c. Fl. Hemenway, Attorney Generaly
has filed in the Supreme Court a mo-
ton to amend the answer Of the Ter
ritory of Hawaii TO the complaint OF
Frederick ]. Lowrey. George P. Castle
and ". 0. Smith. trustees Of the Amer
lean Board of Missions. The amend
ment desired is to plead the statute Of
limitations instead OF the statute Of
frauds.
This is the Lahainaluna school case.
A transfer was made by the American
Board to the Hawaiian Government OF
the school property on condition that
the institution "shall be continued az
its expense as an institution for the
cultivation Of sound literature and
solid science, and further that it shall
not teach or allow to be taught any
religious tenet. or doctrine contrary to
those heretofore inculeated by the
mission" etc, and that in case of
nonfulflment of the condition the sum
of $4,000 should be paid. Upon a con-
tention that the condition was broken
through the abandonment of religious
instruction in the school, the American
Board by the trustees above named
sued to recover the $4,000.
Finding that "from the date of the
transaction until 1903 religious instruc-
ton continued to be taught at the
school as previously. both parties ap-
pearing to regard such instruction as
required by their agreement" the Ha-
waiIan Supreme Court held that 'the
express agreement does NOT require
that the specified instruction should be
given. and the terms of the agreement
being clear and unambiguous the prac-
teal construction which the parties
have made does not introduce a new
term in the agreement"
Upon the finding that "the school
was changed by the Territory to a
technical school under the name of
the 'Lahainaluna Agricultural school,
the same court held: This is not q
breach of the agreement to continue
the institution for the cultivation Of
sound literature and solid science"
Accordingly the demurrer Of defend
ant was sustained and the complaint
dismissed. The Supreme Court Of the
United States reversed this decision
and remanded the case to the Hawai-
ian court for further proceedings In
accordance with its opinion. SO the
controversy has again to be fought out

deserve commentator for their efforts
to enforce law against unlawful retain,
ing. 1t was the purpose of the conferf
ence last night to urge a continued,
and If possible, more vigilant enbrt
to run down all dealers in the/ out
lawed traffic
1t was stated that the police are
watching very closely along this line,
but more than one member of the force
has called attention to the fact that
many of the large shipments here do
not go to blind tigers, but to the con-
trary large portion of it goes to the
chartered clubs, with whose opera
lions the police have no legal rights to
interfere. 1t is known that at least one
club received very large number of
casks of beer yesterday, several wagon
loads being put in. This tends to show
that all the drinking is not done at
blind tigers as some might suppose by
seeing it hauled through the streets.
There is every reason to believe that
the police will continue their vigi-
lance against the unlawful sale of
liquors, and that the dealers in the
city will be made to stop the business.

CONFERENCE is Held IN
REFERENCE TO THE TIGERS
Police Will Continue to Be Vigilant in Search Of
Unlawful Liquor Clubs Stocking Up.

A conference between the mayor,
the police committee and the police
force of the city was held at the city
hall last night.
The purpose of the meeting was to
confer about the moral situation of the
city, especially in reference to blind
tigers.
The mayor and the police commit
tee complimented the police force on
the splendid showing that they had
made in the suppression of blind
tigers. 1t was kind of heart-to-heart
talk and number of suggestions were
made as to the best plan. of proceed
ure in dealing with this evil. The
police were urged to pay close atten-
ton to this feature of their work and
not to let up at all in their efforts to
run down the illicit vendors of liquor.
1t cannot be denied that some
whisky is being sod in Hattiesburg.
Further, it cannot be denied that the
police have been quite efficient and
successful in tracing the tigers to their
lairs. The convictions on the police
records will show this, and the police

This time a school, with children
tripping into a sudden hell of smoke
and flame and forgetfulness of each

quire such a cost as this to make us
take note?
Mothers have heretofore been prone
to believe that at least at school their
children were safe. Are they but fire
traps in spite of precaution and drills?
Investigations will be made now,

but years have taken much from the
horror of the Christians in the arena

the dark days of France before a re

Printed details fresh from the scene
at Collinwood required a stout heart

Daily News Special
Jackson. Miss, March 2O.-Today's
session of the legislature was dull and
uneventful. The bills passed were
chiefly local and private measures, the
only act of importance passed being in
the lower house, where bill authoriz-
ing municipalities to establi-h the COM
mission form of government, similar to
that in Houston and Galveston, went
through on the same roll call with
about twenty bills of unimportart
character.
For the first time since the legisla-
tive session was convened all members
of the senate were present at the roll
call this morning. Forty-ive men,
bers answered their names, very much
to the establishment of the secretary.
On the opening day of the session
there were several absentees, due to
sickness or other causes, and on no
day during the session until this morn
ing were all members present to an
swer.
An Improvement in attendance was
also shown at the. house session this
morning, and the occasional fears ex-
pressed that the lawmaking body
would not be able to hold a quorum
until sine die adjournment seems to
have been unfounded.
