LITTLE GIRL
LONGER NAME

Although little eight-year Indiana
Lewis has already a name long enough
(when it is all there, of course) to sat
isfy most little people, she is to have
it changed and it will become still long
er. Also she will get new mamma
although it is doubtful, seeing that she
is eight years old, that she can ever
loose her old mamma.
Two days ago her name was Indiana
Katharyn apolialohanalani Lewis and
in that there are thirty-seven letters
but from yesterday on her name is
Indiana Katharyn Kapolialohanalani
Houghtailing and in that there are
forty-fOur letters.
Papers were signed yesterday by
Judge Robinson legaizing the adoption
of Indiana by Miss Olivia HoughtaiIing,
Mrs. Eliza IL. Lewis, the mother, being
one of the parties to the petition.
Defendants Demur.
Demurrers have been fled in the case
brought by Lee Yet against E. R. Stack
able, R. W. Breekons, A. W. Adams and
r. j. Taylor for trespass. The defend
ants claim that the complaint does not
set forth enough facts to constitute a
suit and that what charges are made are
indefinite and ambiguous.
There are two cases against Breckons
and Stackable and one against the
others and were brought to recover $10,-
600 in each case from each defendant
for trespassing on Lee Yet S property.
Incidentally, the defendants were rep
resenting Uncle Sam and were hunting
for opium supposed to be on the
premises illegally.
Courthouse Notes.
Saburo Koga, who pleaded guilty sew
eral days ago in the federal court to a
charge Of violating the Edmunds Act,
was yesterday sentenced by Judge
Woodruff to serve six months in Oahu
Prison.
The trial of Kanagawa, the japanese
who murdered the servant of Judge
Lindsay, has been set for the twenty
seventh, week from Saturday. 1t is
not probable that with such case
against him, the trial will occupy much
time.
One Indictment was returned by the
territorial grand jury yesterday and
placed on the secret files. 1t is for
assault and battery and the man indict-
ed will be arraigned this morning at
nine clock
Eddie Markham will steal no more
chickens. Neither will he steal any
more Panama hats. That is, he won It
for several years. for he has been sent
to the reform school for the term of
his minority. The court could excuse
bis or linn n. g.
be admitted that prices are awfully
high, but nix on the Panama hats,
Kane Sakata was yesterday granted
divorce from Takejiro Sakata on the
grounds of desertion. Suits were start
ed for divorce by Natsu Shikuma
against Tanejo Shikuma and by Fusano
Sasaki against SALES.--FUTURE Sasaki. Both
women charge their husbands with de-
sertion.
As part of the report of the trus-
tees of the Bernice Pauahi Bishop
Museum, the report of the director for
1908 has been filed in the circuit court.
1t contains, besides the usual list of
additions to the exhibits and museum
library, an article on the .EWalled Fish
Traps of Pearl Harbor. y There are also
plates and technical descriptions of
many new plants found during the year
by Prof. Forbes.
The following cases have been set
on the calendar of the supreme court:
Elizabeth X. Booth versus J. H.
aehnack, ct al, and the Territory versus
Y. Sega, ct al. Both are exceptions
from the circuit court.
1t was stated by mistake yesterday
that the promoter of the Sum Chm
kwock Bo was in pilikia 1t should
have been the Mon Sang Vat Bo, the
Chinese newspaper whose promoter, Ho
Fon, must now pay to the subscribers
the stock money they subscribed. The
charges of fraud against him were based
on the grounds that the money collect
ed for stock was all spent although the
company was never Incorporated.
