THE ALONG SUIT.

The answer Of Mrs. Julia H. Along
fled in the Circuit Court on Friday,
reported in the Advertiser yesterday,
seems to have created some misunder-
standing because it is entitled IAN an
swer in the suit of Mrs. Carrie B.
Riggs VS.. Julia H. Along" That was
the title of the original suit brought
10 have the trust deed in the Along
estate construed. A compromise was
effected some months ago which was
perfectly acceptable to Mrs. Riggs and
was accepted by her. and with that
compromise Mrs. Riggs interest and
connection with the suit ended. Mrs.
Burns, however. has now had herself
made a party complainant, and the
present proceeding is in effect her
suit, though 1t retains the old title.
Mrs. Burns is now the real complain
ant. and Mrs. Riggs has now no in
terest OF connection with the suit, ex-
cept that her name remains in the
title Of the cause.

in succession to the late R. F. Bicker-
ton, and he continued on the Supreme
Bench until the organization of the
Territory of Hawaii, June IA, 1900, fol
lowing annexation.
Since then he has practised his pro-
fession. Before the Fire Claims Com
mission, created to adjust the claims
growing out of the destruction of
property, by order of the Board of
Health, in an attempt to stamp out
the plague in the early part of 1900
he was one of the most active prac-
titioners. In connection with William
J. Robinson, now Circuit Judge, he rep
resented a larger number of claimants,
probably, than any other attorney, a
very large proportion of the claims of
Chinese being handled by him. He has
continued to practise mis- profession as
his health would permit ever since.
For several years past his health has
been very precarious, govt, and latterly
a dropsical affection, interfering very
greatly with professional activity.
He has long been member of the
Pacific Club, and for a number of
years was very active in its affairs
both business and social. He was a
member of Pacific Lodge of Masons,
and was once Worshipful Master of it.
He is also fourteenth-de mason
of the Scottish rite.
He has lived for some time in the
lower part of Pauoa Valley, almost at
the foot of Punchbowl.

HAWAIIAN TONGUE CHANGED.

Paradise-Among the most interest
ing documents filed in the Archives
building are hundreds of letters writ
ten by chiefs of the early days begin
ming in 1924, about the time the mis-
sionaries made Hawaiian a written
language. These letters must be Of
great value, as they doubtless contain
many facts of Hawaiian history now
unknown, and they should be trans
lated as soon as possible. They are
written in Hawaiian undefiled. As
many corruptions have crept into the
tongue during the past so years, the
natives OF the present, with few ex-
ceptions, have great difficulty in read
ing them. Some words then in use
have dropped out Of the language en-
tirely, while others have been SO
changed that in some cases the orig
inal meaning is reversed. This. with
the introduction of new words to take
the place of the old ones, and also to
convey new ideas, creates the utmost
confusion in the mind of the average
Hawaiian today when attempting to
translate documents written 80, or
even so, years ago.

TWO YOUTHS co
To THE ROCKP|LE

John Freitas will break rock for the
county for the next four months and
think over the calling down that Judge
Andrade handed out to him in the po-
lice court yesterday. Freitas, who is
a young man, was up on three
charges, malicious injury, drunkenness
and larceny. The three cases were
one continuous offense. He had stolen
some poultry and sold it to a China
man. getting drunk on the proceeds
and falling through a showcase in a
Japanese store. With him on his
circuit went Enos Fragas, who will
also go with him to jail for ninety
days.
Andrade roasted the two youths I'M
mercifuTy, informing them that he
considered them all-round bad eggs
and in line for penitentiary life if a
change in their manner of living was
not made.
The nineteen fan-tan players cap
tured on the other side of the island
on Thursday were up for trial yester-
day. getting off easily with a fine of
three dollars apiece and costs. Three
local gamblers had to pay seven apiece
and costs. while the ten-dollar balls
OF five others were forfeited.

BRIDEGROOM BEATEN
AND WIFE TORN AWAY

Manuel Lewis, who lives on Baker
lane on Punchbowl, started off his
married career last night by being
beaten up by his two brothers-in-law,
the Nascimento boys, losing his wife,
occasioning his mother-in-law a shock
that drove her into Mysteries and fin
ally being returned to his spouse in a
battered UP condition through the as
sistance of Detective Joe Lea1. Thus
initiated he began his life as a mar
riei man.
The bridegroom is eighteen years old
and his bride confesses to fifteen sum-
mers. The pair were made one at the
Roman Catholic cathedral last even
ing, going to the Orpheum by way of
a wedding trip. So far everything was
lovely and with his brides little hand
in his and his head in the clouds he
led his wife out of the theater and
towards their home after the curtain
had fallen on the happy finale of the
play. So engrossed was he in the hap
pineSs thick around him that he failed
tc recognize his brothers-in-law, who
Eiet him, and he was not aware of
the pilikia that the gods had sent to
e-en up things until hard fist landed
on his eye.
Just what happened during the next
few minutes the bridegroom has only
a hazy recollection of, but when he
came to, his girlwife was gone and he
was battered and bruised. He hot
footed to the police station and told
his story, Detective Leal being sent
out with him to locate the missing
bride and guard him. A visit was paid
to the girls parents home on Luso
street, and here it was found that TAX
ing advantage of a hysterical attack
Oh the mother, caused by the return of
the daughter under the accompanying
the wife had skipped
out and disappeared. The husband
and detective then visited the groom's
home and here the abducted bride was
sitting, tearfully awaiting the return
OF her husband. After reuniting the
couple, Leal gave them his blessing
and withdrew.

A DELIGHTFUL EVENT.

Editor of VIEWPOINT BEE: An other of those pleasant little stopping places on the great journey of life, the quarter century wedding anniversary, was delightfully."- reached and celebrated on the evening of the Sd. It took shape as surprise party selected from host of good friends of the fortunate and honored couple. The honorable host fortunately was away during the day. Before train arrival in the evening the parlors were filled with the storming party. Lights out and tongues bridled" was the order awaiting the expectant step. As the homeward traveller plodded his weary way and put foot upon the familiar threshold, the sudden glare of lights and babel of happy voices indicated that something out of the usual order of that well reg ulated household was very much in evil dence and from that time till the small hours of the night were closelat hand, joy and good cheer were unconfined and happiness reigned supreme. The com mittee in charge had provided little innovation along the line of the prover- bial silver anniversary souvenir, small silvery satin sack had been filled with the old substantial coin of the realm. never fluctuating or deceptive. A lit tie joke upon the presentation orator seemed to be apparent as he carefully brought to light the box containing the treasure. Cream Peppermints" in bold letters confronted his astonished gaze and a large consignment of tha t tired feeling" seemed to be taking possession of him with instant activity. Cream peppermlnts, :" for couple who had apparently been having sur- | felt of such-like things for twenty-five 1 years; It seemed too monstrous and terrible to calmly contemplate. Soon, however it was observed that wise pre- caution had been taken in the shape of heavy seals around the box, and the weight too, was found to be much too heavy for mere peppermints, and so re-assurance and invigoration came to the front once more and no further inauspicious incident occurred. Thus ended well appointed and very en- joyable occasion. It is no small achieve Iment to have successfully rounded up so large and generous a consignment of health. vigor and happiness as is the case with this charming and plucky family.
 But, Mir Editor, we know that
 "Pluck wins. it always wins,
 Tho days go slow and nights be dark 'Twixt days that come and go,
 Still pluck will win, its average is sure He wlns the most who can most endure Who faces evils-He who never shirks But waits and watches-and who al
 ways works"

The earnings which the State Rail-

roads have been making on Nevada
business tell excellently of the prog
ress the state has forged ahead with
in the last year. The advertisement
of activity and property which is
conveyed is possibly worth the price
of the high rales that have been
charged.
