Under the Spreading Chestnut Tree
ARE you sUPERsT1r1ousq

It is unlucky to be kicked on the
head by a chestnut horse on Friday.
When picking up a lucky horseshoe
take care not to be run over. 1t Is
better to go without the horseshoe
1t is unlucky to be the thirteenth
guest at a dinner table which is laid
for twelve only. The proper course is
to wait for an invitation.
If a Scotchman offers to pay for
your dinner and for stalls at the the
atre you may consider yourself In
luck.
1t is unlucky when travelling by rail
to be alone in the carriage with a
homicidal maniac.
If, at dinner you upset the claret
three times it is a sign that you will
not be asked again.
If on your wedding day the clergy
man forgets to ask you for his fee,
YOU may consider yourself very lucky
indeed.-Punch.

them as they pass"
The gateman did as requested, and
when the last one had gone he turned
and said: "Twenty-eight, sir"
Good" said the man, smiling as he
walked away Il thought 1 guessed

Postponed

When the time set arrived the muni
cipal mandamus suit was continued un-
til 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon for
trial of disputed statements of fact
which must be settled before the main
questions can be reserved to the Su-
preme Court.
Owing to statements ia Treasurer
Trent's answer to Costers writ of man
damus which are disputable, Assistant
City and County Attorney Miverton
was constrained to file a reply to the
answer when the case came before
Judge Robinson at 2 O'Clock this after
noon. Among the assertions disputed
are those denying Road OverGeer Cum
Minis appointment by the Board of Su-
| pervisors of the County of Oahu and
his filing of bond, and then the en-
ployment of Stable Foreman Coster
( by Cummins, Also, the, denial of the
continuous employment of Coster un-
/ der orders of Cummins up to January
4 last. Also the denial of Mayor
Ferns having read an inaugural ad-
lress. Also the denial that the mo-
| ton to organize the Board was voted
for by all the Supervisors. Also the
denial of Coster's employment by the
Roads Committee on January 4, of his
actual services under continuous en-
ployment since and of the fact that the
/ stables are maintained in connection
with the roads. Another matter con-
troverted by Mr.. Milverton is the sole
ground presented by Mr.. Trent for
refusal to pay Coster's salary warrant.

TAX LIENS ARE
NOT EXTENDED

or superior to the lien of said mort
gage; or, was such tax lien divested
by said foreclosure?"
After quoting the law up to 1905 and
the amendment of that year, the
court concludes thus;
While it tbs true, as contended by
plaintiff, that the amending act does
not impair liens already existing, 1t
does not necessarily follow that such
liens are thereby extended from two
to five years. There is nothing in the
language of the statute to indicate
such intent. The lien for the taxes
of 1906 attached September l, 1905,
and continued for two years; the lien
for the taxes of 1906 attached January
| 81, 1906, and continues for FIVE years.
Statutes providing additional remedies
for the collection Of taxes will not
! be applied to taxes previously laid
unless such intent is manifest Fuller
V. Grand Rapids, 40 Mich. 395.
The first question is answered in
the negative, and consideration of the
second question becomes unnecessary.
There have been cases in court 9TH
er than tax appeals which depended
, for their complete adjudication on the
question of tax liens now decided.

IS. l.. 1905, Act SO, Sec. 16 does not
extend the duration of tax liens which
had ATTACHED prior to the date that
the act took effect"
So reads the syllabus of Supreme
Court decision, written by Justice Bal
lou, in the case of Assessor Charles
T. Wilder against w. T. Lucas, IN
which e. w. Sutton appeared for the
assessor and l.. J Warren for the de-
fendant
In the opinion of the court the case is
thus stated:
This is a submission upon an agreed
statement of facts from which it ap.
pears that the defendant in December
1908, became the purchaser at fore
closure sale of real estate mortgaged
in 1898, upon which the taxes for the
year 1905 are still unpaid. The plain
tiff contends that the property is sub
iect to a lien for the taxes for thai
year superior to the prior mortgage
and the following questions are sub
mitted for decision:
81. Do the provisions of Section II
of Act SO of the Session Laws of 1905
amending Section 1866 of the Revised
Laws of Hawaii (19O5), operate to ex
tend the term of the lien of taxes fo1
the year 1905 from the term of two
years to five years?"
"2. If the previous question be an
swered in the Affirmative: Do tn,
provisions of said Section 1866, as 81
amended, operate the year 1905, priol
