ORDER AGAINST
HONOLULU
CANADA ISSUES ORDINANCE DE-
SIGNED TO KEEP OUT THE JAP
ANESE FROM HAWAII.

VANCOUVER, B. c., January IL
Apparently without calculating wheth-
err it was possible to make the order
under the treaty existing between
Great Britain and Japan the Canadian
Government today put into effect an
order designed to prohibit the landing
of all japanese, who are said to be
coming within the next two months
from Hawaii. Canada is a party to
the treaty, and six months notice Of
abrogatiOn is necessary. No one ina
gines that the Canadian Government
really meant to set at defiance the
treaty, but that is Enthusiastically the
effect of the passing Of the order. The
first clause of the treaty is as follows:
"The subjects of the two contract
ing powers shall have full liberty to
enter. travel or reside in any part OF
the other contracting party, and shall
enjoy full and perfect protection for
their persons and property"
On the other hand, the order of the
Dominion Government made today is
as follows;
1T has been ordered by the Cover
nor-General in council that during the
continuance Of the present condition

are getting in shape for the track meet
that will be held at the Boys Field on
Chinese New Years. Every afternoon
the cinder path on the Boys Field is
occupied by the men and boys who
hope to win priaes in the several
events which will be held on February
=. The entry list this year promises
| to be the largest ever known in the
history of Chinese athletics, and the
lucky ones in the events will receive
medals that will be well worth win
ming. Among those who will take
part are the following well known ath-

The Government does not deny that
the order is directed -solely against the
japanese Of Honolulu who cannot be
American citizens and who have not
made, when they shall have arrived
here, continuous journeys to British
Columbia.
Hon. w. ]. Bowser. Attorney-Ien-
eral of British Columbia, gave his op-
inion today that there was absolutely
no question but that the order of the
Federal Government was in defiance
of the treaty and therefore could not
be maintained. That Japan has no,
consented to this regulation is evident
from the fact that none Of her repre-
sentatives in Canada have received no
tice of that consent
All over Canada tonight the order
Is looked upon as a good joke. There
Is no possibility, it is said, of its beng
carried out, as the Imperial Govern
ment will order it's cancellation with
i'll a few days, even If the Dominion
Government should attempt to force
the matter.

DEATH OF LUDoVIC HALEVY.
Was Well Known French Dramati
Author and Novelist.

The death of Ludovic Halevy. the we'll
known dramatic author and novelist. at
Paris, was briefly reported in The Star
Friday. NJ. Halevy was a member of
the French Academy. and was born in
Paris July /. 1884. He was best known
as the former collaboration of Meilhac.
and their names will always be associated
in the public mind. for they were for
many years, in a stage sense. like the
inseparable swans of Juno. They wrote
"Frou-Frou.' 1.-The Grand Duchess of
Gerolstein," la Belle Helene Car
celebrated opera books. comedies and
farces. NJ Meilhac, who was born in
Paris in 1884. began his career as dram
atist alone in 1852. and was kept pretty
well in the background unit! "Sarabands"
was produced: this was sparkling little
one-act comedy. and it was followed by
others like to it and equally successful.
In 1860 NJ. Melihac Joined NJ. Halevy, and
during twenty years the two men worked
together for the French stage, anh it
may be rightly added. for the stage of
the world. NJ. Halevy was the nephew
of The composer of La Juive." and was
the son of poet and playwright. He be-
gan as a librettist for Ofenbach.
In the early part Of 1882 the partner
ship between Meilhac and Halevy was
dissolved. and the latter set himself to
work at writing Partisan sketches and
satires. which were ungrudgingly praised
Meilhac and Halevy were never looked
upon as professors of virtue on the stage.
They were rather clever and audacious in
the handling Of their material. The story
of Liable Constantine" however. is as
pure as the pastoral weetness of Words
worth. Its heroine is rich and lovely
American girl who falls in love with a
French artillery officer and marries him.

Mr.. Kern on the site of the once famous

Highland district. Mr.. Kern has been
residing in that district nearly forty
years and has washed out a great guam
tity of gold in that time, but never enough
at any one time to make the recovery
remarkable, and the nugget which he has
just brought to Butte is the biggest ind
