Not exactly expected. Even tarradddle is better

Here's either a complication or solving of the

LEM Says He Was Slated.

In reply TO a question from Cap
tain Berkeley Mr.. LEM then stated
that he was aware that he was the
man slated to be elected TO nh the
vacancy which would be caused by
the resignation of Mr.. Cox In case the
latter were elected TO the office OF
constable.
Mr.. Lenz stated. however. that he
had not been told by Mr.. Cox that ne
was TO I'LL the proposed vacancy. but
that he had been Informed by a num-
der OF residents OF the Second ward
that he was 10 be selected TO al the
vacancy.
With the excusing of Mr.. Lenz,
the taking Of testimony in the case
came 10 a close and Captain Berkeley
opened the argument for the common
wealth.
Captain 6erkeiey's Argument.
Captain Berkeley prefaced his ar
gnment with few remarks In which
he said that there seemed TO be
a general impression prevalent that
the using of public Office by man
for his own private gain was no
crime. lie went on 10 say that the
principle OF serving two masters was
not a sound one and that man could
not serve seth people and himself,
as when mis- own interests clashed
with the peoples. the peoples would
suffer.
Many Authorities Cited.
Captain Berkeley then cited =
large number of authorities in sup
port of his contention that under the
law the soliciting of a bribe is an
1ndictable cffense-a misdemeanor.
He spoke for more than two hours,
making an able and comprehensive
presentation OF the commonwealth
case.
Mr. Collier then took up the argu-
ment for the defense. but he had
spoken only a few minutes when
court adjourned.
The session OF the court was held
in the corporation court room. Very
Few spectators were present at either
the morning or afternoon sessions.

The feat of Senator Gore in reel
ing off columns of tariff statistics in
a recent speech serves to increase
public interest in The blind senator
and his remarkable intellectual equip
ma MT. The Oklahoman occupies a
seat in the back row on the demo-
cratic side, save when he makes his
speech. Then he moves down to Sen
ator Daniels seat in the front row.
For a blind man, Senator Gore does
an awful lot of writing, especially
~ ne Aldrich, Smoot or some other
republican is explaining or defend
ing the tariff bill. He %scribbles away
at a great rate, and everyone wonders
what it is about. At other times he
sits bolt upright, paying strict atten-

senate.
Gore, in action, is picturesque. He
has a magnificent voice, Is q master
OF sarcasm, and if feared by republi-
cans more than any other democrat,
including Bailey. Gore has trained
himself in tricks to cover up LIS
blindness. While speaking he swings
regularly from left to right, turning
his head so as to address all his audi.
tors. He snaps out his words with
yigor. To emphasize them he jerks

EXAMINATION SOON
e FOR CENSUS AGENTS
Duties of Men Who Will Collect
Statistics Will Be Many
"'os and Varied,

DR.. Victor S. Clark will be aided in
his work of collecting the census sta.
tistics of Hawaii mel by large corps
of assistants, the greater part of whom
have already made application for entry
in the civil service examinations. All
applications were supposed to have been
made by the twenty-ffth and those who
are excused from taking the practical
tests are those who have had previous
experience in the work.
Applications will be accepted from
women having the required experience
and education, but the opportunity for
their employment in this work is slight,
and but few, if any, such appointments
will be made.
General Census Director Durand, in
instructions, states that generally
speaking, the duties of special agents
will consist in obtaining, in person,
from manufacturing establishments and
mines and quarries, the statistics re.
quired by law, as indicated in the print
ed schedules with which they will be
furnished. These statistics cover in
vestment, quantity and value of prod
ucts and of raw materials used, num-
Der of employees and their wages, char
acter and quantity of power, etc.
Honolulu is the only place in Hawaii
where examinations will be held, and
they will take place on November 3.

DAMAGE SUIT
IS COMMENCED
Injuries Received Seven Years
Ago Basis for Demand
for $4,000.

Judge Whitney's court was in SEES
sion all afternoon yesterday at the
Queens Hospital, trying tho case Of
Edward Campbell against II. Hackfeld
& Co. The morning session was occu.
pied in examining talesmen and select.
ing jury, and the objection Of At.
torney Thompson, for the defendants,
to taking a statement of counsel on
the opposite side caused the removal
Of court to the hospital.
Campbell is suing Hackfelds for
$4,000. For seven years he has been
lying on his back from injuries re.
bark of which Hackfelds were agents.
The vessel was the Norwegian bark
Aeolus, and while working on her as a
stevedore Campbell claims that a rope,
which held the coal bags, broke, and
he was injured by their falling. The
rotten rope that parted, no blames on
the agents, and will try to recover
damages. The accident occurred on
July 90, 1902.
Magoon and Quinn are attorneys for
the plaintiff, and when Magoon made
the statement before the jury yester.
day morning that Campbell was "on
his back in the hospital" Thompson
Immediately objected to any such state
ment being placed on record.
elf it were denied it would be a
different thing" answered Magoon.
81 deny it, then," said Thompson.
Thereupon Magoon made out aft
davits to the effect that Campbell was
laid up and unable to attend court,
and in the afternoon judge, jury and
attaches were loaded into hacks and
court opened in the hospital in order
to take the testimony of the plaintiff.

OIL ON THE
TROUBLED WATER.
But the Trouble to Shipping
Came Along With
the Oil.
(From Thursdays Advertiser,

Oil, thick and very thick was wan
dering all over the harbor yesterday
and the day before. 1t chung deity
to the white paint on the yochts. 1t
seeped sweetly above the copper paint
and piled itself on itself until it was
almost an inch thick.
A sampan is not craft, it is not
a ship, it is not even real fishing
boat. These things are ugly enough
with their twiee.paid for gasoline smell
producers, with six Japanese working
on the carbureter and fourteen on the
fly-wheel. but they look much worse
with sides smeared with oil.
And then the yachts. The Charlotte
c., as dainty and pretty a little vessel
as ever swan off the ways, lying at
her moorings off the Myrtle boat club,
rising and dipping to the gentle swell
that is all that the Kona wind can
send past the bar, stoops not to a
gentle kiss from Mother Ocean, but to
the smudgy lick of as foul and greasy
a harbor surface as ever disgraced this
town.
Even the poor old Galloping Mary.
Moored on an outhaul between the Hea-
lani boathouse and the pilot house, in
a quiet nook protected by perfect
city of piles from the octopus like
feelers of the oil, was covered from
counter to waterline with a coating
of the filthy substance. Along the wa
terllne the oil was full quarter of
an inch thick. Coal oil would hardly
make an impression on the horrid stuff
and a cold.chisel had its edge blunted
by trying to chip the mass off the side
of the boat.
Now the oil has drifted away. Where
does it come from' Nobody knows and
nobody is guilty, but it is there just
the same.

PANSY LEI FROM

William Jennings Bryan visited the

AS he entered the Hawaiian build
ing he was greeted by Miss Irene Boyd,
who bore the beautiful lei of many
colors. She seemed to hesitate, for Mr..
Taft had hesitated about wearing one
offered by Miss Kaai, but Mr.. Bryan s
manner assured her. Holding his head
low, for he knew the custom well, he
permitted her to place the lei around
his neck and wore it while remaining
in the building. AS the party passed
through the building the Hawaiian
chorus began singing Aloha De. Mr.,
Bryan stood with the lei about his neck
until they had finished, and then re.
quested another song, which was sung
for him.
