BIRTHDAY GIFTS
TO THE QUEEN

Among the gifts of Hawaiians in the
birthday hookupu to Queen Liliuoka-
lani were two koa wood kahili stands
and one koa table presented to Her
Majesty by the Society of Royal Feath-
ers (Ahahui Hull Ali LiliuokalanD
named after herself, Mrs. Elizabeth Ma
hiai Robinson being the president. This
is a society which periodically meets
for the purpose of renovating, repair
ing and otherwise preserving Hawaii's
old royal emblems which are valuable
on account of their rarity as well as
historic interest. In this way the
relics OF the monarchical regime are
insured from the ravages of time and
pests.

LILIUOKALANI
HOLDS COURT
AS OF YORE

Once Hawaii's Queen, queenly as
ever, Liliuokalani this morning on the
occasion of the seventy-first anniver-
sary of her birth, held such a recep-
tion in her residence at Washington
Place, Beretania avenue, as has seldom
been witnessed in modern Hawaii.
Over two thousand people, foreign,
mainland and local, official, tourist and
general, the so-called high and the So
called low, the titled and the untitled,
did reverence to the majesty OF her
personality and the hand that of yore
was kissed when monarchy held sway,
was this day graciously extended for
the usual democratic salutation, the
Queen shaking hands with nearly sew
enteen hundred of the~tw thousand
and more who called to pay their res
poets, to wish her continued health and
happiness, to extend Fluctuations, or TO
merely look upon the great lady of
whom they had heard so much abroad
but never before had seen.
The Congressional party of nearly
half hundred lawmakers and their
wives and sons and daughters, was in
vited to attend Liliuokaani's recep-
tion and it is safe to say that all were
there. Perhaps the fact that the mem
bers of the Congressional party were
to avail themselves of this opportunity
to meet the Queen, brought out many
who would not otherwise have attend
ed. Be that as it may, Washington
Place has not seen so great gather
ing in years

and would therefore raise the same
questions as were raised by the writ.
Mr.. Andrews did not think so and, at
the request of the court, read the mo-
tion. 1t was on these grounds:
First That this court should not
exercise, nor attempt to exercise jurfs-
diction in the above entitled matter nor
proceed with the hearing thereof, be-
cause the person for and on ehalf of
whom this writ has been issued has
not exhausted the remedies given him
by the laws and through the medium
of the courts CT the Territory of Ha-
wall.
Second. That this is an attempt
to review, by means of writ of ha-
beas corpus, matters which should be
reviewed, if at all, by use of writ OF
error
Judge woodruff thought the motion
raised at least portion of the is
sues that would be raised in a mo-
tion to dismiss the writ. Therefore
if counsel for the petitioner, T. M. Har-
rlSOn, was prepared TO argue on tne
merits of the writ, his preparation
would serve for this motion. He did
not wish either side to be surprised. Ii
the question of jurisdiction was to be
decisive, there would be no need to
take evidence, therefore he did not
see the necessity OF che attendance OF
the court reporter
Mr.. Harrison admitted that the i'm
mediate question to be decided was
whether there had been due process OF
law in the committal and detention
of DR.. Atcherley.
A short recess was taken to enable
Mr.. Andrews to fetch the authorities
he needed on the question Of jurisdic-
tion.

DR.. ATCHERLEY

FEDERAL COURT
JUDGE WOODRUFF BEGINS H
HABEAs CORPUS TO RELEA
SANE AsYLUM-ARGUMENT PROCEEDS ON THE QUESTION OF
JURISDICTION OR DUE PROCESS OF LAW

Jurisdiction is the point of the ha-
beas corpus case in the matter of DIR.
John H. Atcherley, an alleged insane
person, so far as it has gone in the
Federal court. ~ q
DR.. Atcherley was produced before u.
S. Judge Woodruff at 1O:3O this morn
ing by DR.. G. A. Peterson, superinten-
dent of the Insane Asylum. Mrs.
Mary H. Atcherley sat beside her hus-
band in court.
Deputy Attorney General Lorrin An
drews, with whom Deputy City Attor-
ney +. w. Milverton appeared for the
respondent read the answer of DIR. G..
A. Peterson, announcing that q mo-
tion to quash would also be presented.
In the answer, as reasons for the de-
tention of DR.. Atcherley as an insane
person, there were set forth District
Magistrate Andrade's committal OF
him to the asylum, his appeal tO the
Lunacy Commission, the decision of
the Commission that he was insane,
his appeal from the District Magistrate
to the Circuit Court for trial of the
question of his insanity by jury,
Judge Robinson's reservation of ques-
tions regarding the law of insanity to
the Supreme Court and finally the lat
ter courts decision sustaining the
Judgment of the District Magistrate
and finding the lunacy law constitu-
tionaL In conclusion the respondent
declared that at no lime had DR.. At
cherley been denied his constitutional
rights and that he was restrained of
his liberty by virtue of the laws OF
Hawaii
Judge Woodruff, when Mr.. Andrews
offered to read the exhibits, stated that
the motion to quash had the same pur-
pose as a motion to dismiss the writ

From the viewpoint of the visiting
congressman and their people, the
function was splendid success. The
Queen stood before a great empurpled
chair, to receive, taking position at
the head of the spacious drawing
room, and behind her rising the golden
spheres significant of ancient royalty
and the rich kdhilis or feathered cIust-
ers which have always been the won
der of visitors and the admiration OF
strangers, as well as local folk
On her right stood the Honorable A..
S. Cleghorn, once Governor of the
Tslanl of Oahu, while to her left stood
Delegate to Congress Kuhio Kalania-
naole, more affectionately known as
Prince Cupid, and his charming wife,
the Princess Kalanianaole.
It. would be difficult to imagine a
more interesting setting. Cleghorns
grand presence, beetling white brows
and imperial countenance; the Queens
fine carriage under the weight of so
many years, her royal manner, ner
gracious womanliness and splendid
dignity; Kuhio's affable attitude and
perfect polish, and the beauty and
magnificence of the Princess.
All this was not lost Oh the visitors
from the mainland States who seemed
much impressed with the serious signi-
ficanee of the occasion.

the past years. fixing the compensation for said work

any time they fit Under this peculiar appointment
the expert work for several months There is
no limit fixed within which the,work must be completed or
the per diem must The only reservation that the
board the right to revoke the appointment at
pleasure. This reservation may have been injected with
the object of preventing the job from being spun out to an
unreasonable length may have been inserted for some
other purpose. There is telling how long work of
this character will last 1t be strung out for long
period of time according to the eaboraeness of the report
be made blanket contract of this kind the term
of the employment largely within the keeping of the
pert SO there telling how much the taxpayers will
be called upon pay for this exporting business That
such arrangement concedng it's legality must be
viewed with dsfavor by those who called upon to foot
the bills is beyond question Certainly prudent man
in the conduct of his private business would dream of
coping this wide open contract model worthy of mta
ton He would to know beforehand something about

hundred dollars There is telling how much more it
will cost before is completed If the supervisors elect to
terminate the employment before the task is completed
all the money that may have been paid out for the unn
ished product will have been wasted far practical
results concerned The main questions to be deter
mined by an examination of official books wofod.
ls Whether the books properly balance. 2nd Whether
the of the county has been faithfully collected and
dsbursed accordance with law When these issues are
squarely met by experts report the public will be salts
fed On the other hand if the investigation fails in these
respects matter how elaborate in it's details in other
respects will fall short of it's purpose in the estimation
of the people, Taxpayers want to know whether the ser
wants whom they have elected to transact the public bust
ness have faithfully and honestly discharged their duties.
The law provides that where the work to be done in
wolves expense of $500 more the must be let
by contract to the lowest responsible bidder The wisdom
of this provision is indisputabe. We why
the exporting Of public records should not fall within its
scope The exporting in this has already exceeded
the limit with the end still Of sight To hire work of
this kind done at much per diem far from being the
safer commendabe course,
