PRECEDENCE AT
THE OBSEQUIES
OF THE PRINCE
Marshal laukea Has Delicate Question of Eli.
quette to Settle Between the Queen and
the Widowed Princess.

A question Of precedence has arisen
between the Queen and the Marshal
of the royal cortege, Col. Iaukea, as
to whether the Queen or the Princess
shall appear at the funeral as chief
mourner.
Liliuokalani is understood to claim
first place on the score of her rank;
widow naturally takes the lead and he
cites various precedents. At the funer-
al of Dowager Queen Kapiolani, the
carriages of the Princes were first and
second; the Queens carriage being
third. At the funeral of Kaiulani, the
queens carriage was preceded by that
of Governor Cleghorn, father of the
deceased Princess, and by that of the
Princes David and Kuhio.
Friends of the Queen cite the an
cient rule by which a commoner, who
has married Prince, reverts to her
former station on the death of her
husband, but this, in Marshal Iaukea's
opinion, does not deprive the widow of
Prince David of her mourning prece-
dence.
1t is urged on the other hand that
Liliuokalani is no longer a Queen, and
thus cannot demand first place as a
right; but the trouble with this theory
is that, if Liliuokalani is not a Queen,
David was not a Prince and therefore
not entitled to a state funeral. =
The compromise view is that any one
granted a state funeral has recog
milton from the Government which
cannot be made subject to the former
rights of a deposed ruler.

With a Board of Health commission.
The Territory of Hawaii, through its
lish a cattery, where felines of doughty
parentage will be bred and raised with
view to becoming official rat-catch-
ers for the board. The stock for the
cattery will be carefully selected, and
only cats who have proved themselves
good ratters will be placed there,
while their progeny will be raised with
a taste for rats and finally turned
loose throughout the city to prey upon
the carriers of the bubonic flea.
This proposal was made at the reg
ular meeting of the Board of Health
yesterday by President Cofer. who
stated that the idea had been suggest
ed to him by DR. Koch, the great bac-
teriologist, who recently visited here.
DIR. Koch's idea was that cats, select
ed for their rafting ability, should be
selected to be the progenitors of Ter
ritOrial cats, raised on rat meat and
brought up with a taste for rat and
turned loose when sufficiently grown to
rustic their own living in the city.
Such cats. he thought, would soon de-
crease the rat population, with a cor
responding decrease in the possibility
of any further outbreak of bubonic.
so the Territory may soon have an
established cattery.'' concluded the
president to the members of his board,
the only suggestion offered in return
by one of the members being that it
would be wise to also select the stock
cats so as to produce a mute strain
for official use.
The Cofer cat will soon attain ce-
lebrity.
