NO DOVER IN LIFE
ESTATES IN HAWAII

Judge De Bolt yesterday decided a
point of law which is novel in this
Territory. He sustained the demurrer
of the defendant in the suit of Viii
liams against w. R. Castle. holding
that there can not be dover in a life
estate. Castle is trustee under the
will of Joshua Williams. BY the will.
one of Williams sons was to receive
the income of a certain part of the
estate during his lifetime, and after
his death this income was to 90 to
his children during their lives and the
life of the survivor of them. The
widow of this son has brought suit to
compel the trustee to set aside dover
to her in the estate from which this
income is derived. The defendant de-
murrer on the ground that the estate
of the younger Williams was a life es-
tate and that there is no dover in such
estates in this Territory. Judge De
Bolt sustained the demurrer.

THE MOTHER DENIED
CUSTODY Of HER CHILD

Judge De Bolts order dismissing the
habeas corpus petition of Mercedes
Briggs and remanding the child in
question, Elizabeth Harvey, to the care
and custody of Frank r. Harvey, was
yesterday fled in the Circuit Court. In
this order Judge De Bolt finds that the
child is the daughter of the petitioner,
Mercedes Briggs and that she was
given away by the mother Immediately
after her birth; that the mother had
never contributed to the support of the
child, and that the best interests of the
child require that Frank r. Harvey
have her care and custody.

HOW ZEE Hal DAM
KILLED HIS RIVAL

Ear While He Was
Asleep.

John Lincoln, jailor at KaiIua, ar
rived yesterday morning by the Mauna
Loa, bringing with him, to Oahu Jail,
zee Hal Dam, who was convicted of
murder in the first degree at the Kai-
lua term of court and was sentenced
to be hanged

fenced was particularly atrocious

had been, had left him and gone to
live with another man. zee hired an
other Korean, Hang Dai Hal, to 60
with him., the intention being to kill
the woman and her new paramour.
The agreement was that zee should
kill the man and Hang should kill the
woman. They found the two asleep.
zee cut the throat of his victim from
ear to ear. The sight of the blood, or
something, quenched the murderous
ardor of Hang or gave him cold feer,
and the woman escaped.
Both zee and Hang were indicted
for murder in the first degree. Yee
was tried and convicted and is now
in Oahu Jail awaiting day to be
fixed by the Governor for his execu-
tion.
Hang pleaded guilty to murder in
the second degree, and the Indictment
for murder in the first degree was
stricken from the files. On his plea
of guilty to murder in the second de-
gree, Hang told his story. He claim
ed that he went with zee under duress,
zee threatening to kin him if he did
not so. On this statement, Judge
Matthewman ordered that a plea of
not guilty be entered He will be
tried at the next term of court.

EXPERIMENT WITH VACUUM.
Interesting Test Which Can Be Made
with Simple Apparatus.

Take any kitchen utensil used for
frying purposes-an ordinary skillet,
or spider, works best-having a
smooth inner bottom surface, and turn
in water to the depth of one-half inch.
Cut piece of cardboard circular to fit
the bottom of the spider and make a
hole in the center four inches in diam
eter. The hole will need to corre-
spond to the size of the can used. 1t
should be one inch less in diameter
than that of the can. Place this card
board in the bottom of the spider un-
der the water. A two-quart syrup can
or pail renders the best demonstra-
ton, although good results may be OBJ
tained from the use of an ordinary to-
mato can. The edge of the can must
