Russia the Recipient of Advice
From the interested
Nations.
REPORTED JOINT NOTE SENT
Nothing Official Is Given Out
and Not Known if United
States Has Joined.
(By Associated Press.)

ST. PETERSBURG, October 23.--
The situation in Manehuria in respect
to the rival claims of Russia and
Japan, as we'll as the claims of the
Chinese government for sovereignty
actual as we'll as nominal, has now be-
come matter for international no
tice and diplomacy. Yesterday it was
reported in official circles here that
the Russian government had been adj
dressed in a joint note from the
Powers.
This would seem to indicate that the
action of the Russian government in
Manchuria, in disputing the right of
the Chinese government 20 enter into
an arrangement with Japan regarding
the latter's rights in respect to the
Antung Mukden railroad concession, is
not meeting with the approval of the
other interested nations.
The protest flynn America, intimated
in the speeches of Charles Il. Crane,
before his resignation was asked for,
is not applied to che Antung- Mukden
rdllTodu conceasioh, HoMtNeis out W
the concession to Japan in regard to
the Fukamen railroad, to which Great
Britain had originally objected. The
American objection may or may not
be included in the alleged joint note.
The Antung Mukden concession car
ries with it certain mining rights for
the japanese, claimed by Russia to be
a violation of the Portsmouth treaty
and by the other nations as a viola
ton of the open-door understanding.
. Nothing official, from any source,
has been given out regarding the al
legged joint note.

is the source of bitter contention be-
tween the government and the United
Cigar Company, and is also the bone
of contention between the government
and local importers. The government
has construed the meaning Of dI-
rect, in this instance, to be that
cigar shipments should be made in one
ship. That is. a Honolulu importer
sends to Manila for a bill Of goods.
The Manila exporter puts them on
board a vessel which will touch at Ho-
nolulu. although stopping at many
ports between. That is called a direct
shipment. If the exporter puts them
aboard a steamer for Hongkong, and
they are transhipped TO another vessel
at that port for dispatch to Honolulu,
then that is not a "direct' ship
ment
The eighty thousand cigars to be
returned to Manila arrived here in at
least two vessels, the one which took
them first TO Hongkong. and the sec
ond which brought them to Honolulu.

TEN.CENTS FOR
MURDER EDGE
Man Who Sharpened Knife That
SlaShed Sheba Gives
Testimony.

There was but one argument, one
statement, made yesterday in the trial
of the assailant of Sheba that gave
any intimation as to the probable de-
Tense of Mori. 1t was when E. A.
Douthitt, examining attorney for the
lawyers of the defense, holly opposed
the testimony relative to the gravity
of Sheba s wounds, DR.. Collins, who
attended Sheba, being the witness.
Coupled with arguments of the open
ing day of the trial, Douthitt s at
tempt 10 keep out this testimony
seems to indicate that the defense will
attempt to disprove the intent to MUIR
der and reduce the charge against him
10 common assault and battery, with
3 possible six months sentence as the
penalty for his deed.
Thursdays cross examination of
SAeba by Douthitt brought forth the
question from the latter as to whether
or not Sheba was in the habit of go
ing about armed This was commonly
understood to be the case, and as the
knife with which the assault was
made was a small one, Douthitt evil
IDENTIFY wished it pointed out that
Nori S last thought was TO commit any
act that was deserving of such quick
retribution as gun would afford
against a knife of this size.
During the entire trial thus far, the
defense has been attempting to keep
out any testimony regarding the phys
zeal acts of Mori and trying to make
the prosecution stick to the barest evil
dence relative TO the intent of the de-
PENDANT Douthitt argued that the
gravity or the deepness of the wounds
did not enlighten the court or jury as
10 what Mort : intent was, and as the
doctor had described the location Of
the wounds, their seriousness did not
matter His objection was overruIed

Examination System Severely
Roasted by Indignant
Pedagogues.
QUIZZES ARE AN lNDlGNlTY
They FRAGILE instructors Nerves
and the Results Are
Worthless.

If it be really true that one s ears
burn when someone else is talking
about him, the left ear being particu-
larly affected when the remarks being
made are of caustie or unfriendly
nature, then the ears of the superin-
tendent of public instruction and of the
commissioners of education must have
been fiery red last night. For things
were being said about the individuals
mentioned, and the things said were by
no means of an admiring nature. More.
over, those who were saying them were
not simply disinterested knockers, but
the teachers of the public schools of
Honolulu and instructors in some of
the other educational institutions of
the city Mr. Rabbit nor any member
of the board was mentioned by name,
nor were the inspectors, but there was
no question as to who was meant.
1t was at the second meeting of the
teachers association of Honolulu, and
the subject up for discussion was teach
ers' examinations, their use and ad-
visibility. Nobody expressed any ad-
miration for them, nor could any of the
teachers who spoke on the subject see
either the use or ACCESSIBILITY of them.
On the contrary.
Merely an Indignity.
"To subject to an examination a man
or woman, in many instances naturally
timid when it comes to taking an ex.
animation upon which depends his or
her bread and butter, is in the nature
of an indignity,' said p. i. Horne,
president of the Kamehameha Schools,
in the course of vigorous condemna-
ton Of the entire method of selection.
81 never took an examination in my
life,'' said President Horne, "and 1
have never given one to a teacher. /
do not consider that the efficiency of
a teacher can be judged from the re-
suits of an examination.
s'For the teacher of service who is
doing satisfactory work to be required
to take an examination to show that
she is qualified for the position, is UNI
Just The only kind of an examination
to which any teacher ought to be sub
ieeted is to have the examiner go into
her school room and remain there

what kind of work she is doing
Truth Is Best.
FfI think the best thing to do is to
use care in selecting teachers, and if
at any time it appears that one is not
going to make a good teacher, tell him
or her so frankly after a fair trial, and
not get rid Of them by elimination
after an examination which the most
experienced of us would hesitate to
take.
