Mrs. Bessie II. Burns, who is
u principal in tho Along case,
this morning completely broke

examination, and the case was there
fore continued until Q o'clock this af-
ternoon. She has been on the stand
since late yesterday afternoon, the
hard part coming this morning, when
she was forced to testify directly
against her mother.
This morning she told the whole
story regarding her part In the case
since the time she landed here with
her husband on July 18th last. She
told how It was tacitly understood all
the time, even at the time that she
signed away all her right to the prop
erty along with the others, that her
mother would keep her promise to
her to either give her home or give
her money. Mrs. Burns was an excel
lent witness, telling her story clearly
and graphically, sometimes rising
from her seat and crying aloud to give
emphasis to the things she was stat.
ing.
| On cross-examination by Judge Per-
ry, she stated that outside OF one lit
tie matter, she had not discussed the
case with her husband in any phase
or at any time since their arrival on
July Is up until some time in August.
Perry made point Of this, attempting
to twist the witness by asking her in.
Vulnerable questions Ringing around
the same point. Later on he led her
on, and finally her nerves gave away,
and she broke down completely.
Judge Lindsay thereupon continued
the case until this afternoon.

COWARDLY AND DISGRACEFUL.

The unwarranted assault on a re-
porter of this paper by Captain Car
ter of the Naval Station is. so far as
we know, the only disgraceful incl
dent that has married the history of
the Station or the record of officers,
and gentlemen, who have hitherto &C.
cupied the position which Carter now
holds.
Captain Carter has always been
treated with courtesy and considera-
ton by the representatives of this
paper. He has not been misrepresen-
ted nor have his shortcomings been
dwelt upon, as might easily have been
done.
The incident for which he attack
ed particularly gentlemanly report
err was the plain statement Of the
mess which the tug Iroquois made of
assisting the cruiser st. Louis In
leaving the harbor. Carter appar.
emily felt that he could soothe his
chagrin by taking 1t out of the re-
porter.
His attack was cowardly and dis
graceful. To attack man who Is
going the rounds of his duty as a
. news-gatherer is about rs low
down" performance as man can
indulge in these days. The fact that
Captain Carter has put himself OIL
this level speaks for itself.

THE DECLARATION OF
INDEPENDENCE.

Have you ever read the Declara-
tion of Independence?
Too large a share of our citizens
cannot remember having seen the
document, and too many who have
heard 1t read listened with deaf ear
because II was an old story.
1t is good reading, and contains
splendid instruction for the Ameri-
can citizen of today, and, since Ho-
nolulu is to have u particularly quiet
Fourth of July, we commend the pc
rusal of the Declaration, reprinted in
this issue, during the quiet hours of
the evening.
The country has got over the habit
though the record of history proves
that the people of the thirteen colo
MES had ample cause for all they
said and did.
The principal educational value of
this work of our forefathers is to re-
mind our people of the principles that
gave them the greatest Nation of the
world and set an example in human
liberties whose commanding power
has been felt in every country on
earth.
The duty of the present day is to
keep the Nation true to the early
ideals for which the courageous men
Of 20 fought. We have problems OF
our own.

order has been issued upon the jail
er to, keep Hans Albert from every

Miss Handsell left her home in Of

fore her family knew of her depar-
