Prevent Postponement.

Proceedings were continued yester-
day before Circuit Judge Robinson in
the trial of the twelve japanese charg-
ed with rioting at Waipahu on June s.,
when an attempt was made to rescue a
prisoner from Police Officer Wills and
several specials.
Attorney Lightfoot for the defense
asked for a continuance on the ground
that he had not been given fair OPP
portunity of examining Fuchino and
kawakami, two of the defendants in
the riot cases, who were arrested for
their connection with the imprisoning
of three Japanese on Sunday and their
inquisition at a headquarters of the
Higher Wage Association.
Lightfoot had collection Of aft
davits in support of his motion for a
continuance. He stated that he went
to the police station on the day Kawa-
kami and Fuchino were arrested, but
was refused permission to converse with
them, they being examined at the time
by the officers of the prosecution.
This incident caused Lightfoot to re
fer to the Constitution of the United
States and dwell on the rights of pris-
oners, whom he seems to think ought
to have mole privileges than an ordi-
nary citizen not accused of an infrac-
ton of the law.
, Mr.. Kinney, for the prosecution, re-
piled to Lightfoot s remarks by stating
that he had been given ali opportunity
during the morning to hold a consulta-
ton with Fuchino, but that Lightfoot
had not availed himself of it. Judge
Robinson seemed to take the same view
of the matter, and denied the motion
for continuance. Lightfoot next at
tackled the sufficieney of the Indictment
which was returned against the twelve
accused rioters, enumerating a number
of points which he considered to be de
fects. All of the efforts and oratory
by the attorney for the defense were
unavailing, however, and the trial was
resumed.
Fuchino and Kawakami, charged with
falsely imprisoning three japanese la
borers who wished to return to work
appeared before Judge De Bolt yester-
day morning and their bail was fixed at
5000 each. Lightfoot represented the
defendants and Mr.. Kinney acted for
the Territory during the court proceed
ings.

than monotonous--but the little
acrobatic stunts done by Raffay-
cites dogs at the Pantages are in
a class OF their own, far above the
mediocrity of ordinary canine
actors. The animals go through
almost every kind of acrobatiC
trick that a man can do, and they
undergo the most heart-tearine
risks without even the appearance
of fear or hesitation.
Another act that drew the bulk
of applause yesterday is the must
cal farce presented by Harland
and Rollison. One of the mem
bers of the team can almost make

tetions are undeniably excellent.
Morgan and McGarry appear at
the Pantages in a wooden and soft
shoe dance augmented by six
dancing and singing girls. The
clog of the two young men is
rather tame, but the dance of
the girls, with the aid of several
costume changes, never fails to
bring out round upon round of

made well-deserved hit at their
first appearance on the Grand bill
yesterday, and, from the style of
the performance, one would al
most say that the dolls" had
been just taken from the chorus
of some popular comic opera.
The act Is composed of number
of new and promisingly popular
songs and with some dainty
dances. Miss Jessie Morris sings
the songs in a delightful manner.
Another act which deserves
special mention is the lightning
change specially of the team of
Norton and Russell. The team, a
man and woman. are seen in at
least twelve different costumes,
and they are not of the stage at
any time longer than the ordinary
space taken before responding to
an encore. v. L. Granville gives
"a little two-act play all by him
self, presenting six different char
|acters. One of his costume
changes Is done In the space of
two seconds. The act is above
the average.

How would you feel If you had
to use the tips of your fingers to
see the world and the multitude
of things that are in itY
These blind children have never
seen a tree
They have never seen a chick
They have never seen a sheep
or a COW
They have never seen a river
They have never seen anything
OF the great outdoors.
Now they're getting acquainted
their finger tips.
A new world IL being opened to
them in the Overlook Institu-
ton for the blind at Philadelphia.
Now they are beginning to see on
the mirrors of their brain the
shape and general appearance of
live and animate things which
exist outside the walls of their
asylum.
They call it "examining"---it
really is telegraphy.
The hands passed over the
hide of an animal or the feathers
of bird telegraph to the brain
the contour and general appear
ance of the object so examined, I"
and the blind boy or girl from that
hour knows exactly what the ami
NAL or bird looks like. Thence
forth its name assumes an entire
1y new meaning in the mind OF the
student.
In one of the class rooms at
the institute there is variety of
mounted figures Of birds and ami
mails of the everyday kind. One
is a sheep. 1t is pathetic to OBJ
serve the delighted looks on the
faces of the blind boys as they
pass eager fingers over the woolly
figure on the table.
Meanwhile the instructor ex-
plains:
THE wool you touch is the ina
terial from which our clothes are
made. The sheep itself Is the ami
NAL that provides US with our
mutton. 1t is the sheep that you
hear 'baa-a-ing' when you go to
the park
And so the lesson proceeds
while the students busy fingers
flutter over the woody figure, ex-
aiming it with keen interest.
In another part of the room a
variety Of mounted birds are
placed around at convenient
heights. A knowledge of the ap-
pearance of these birds could be
acquired by the eyes In the fingers
of the students. The colors of
the birds plumage is explainedby
the instructor and the children
are introduced to the world Of
feathered things-a world that
would remain a sealed book to
most of them but for this clever
method of enabling them to see
with their fingers.
The general complaint of the
school teacher is the lack of inter-
est on the part of the average
child. The blind student fairly
bubbles over with enthusiasm.
"How high can it fly" they
ask. where does it build its
|nest?. What does it eat? Can it
hurt you with this sharp beak?
How does It act when you go near
it? oh! do men shoot them?
What a shame!"
From the class rooms where
;reatures of earth and sky are
studied tho children are taken to
the woods and fields and into the
fine gardens adjoining the build
ings. Here the acquaintance of

New York, May 10.-There was -
falling off in speculative interest and
activity in the stock market today.
Without any pronounced reversal in
the tone, operators were less disposed
to accept the lead offered by the bid
dipg. up, Of special stocks. Prices re-
acted more positively in The final deal
ings.
Improvement in copper was proved
by April statistics of the Copper Pro-
dueers' association, but the copper in
dustry was heavier than the general
list. II was quite apparent THAT last
weeks speculation in the copperst had
: been in, anticipation of effect Of these
figures 1t will be recalled that heavy
. profit taking sales made themselves
. apparent in the coppers already on
Saturday. The great growth in trea-
soning powers in the general speenla
tive public. which is one Of the fea-
lures of the period, has driven the
better Informed inside Spectators to
advance a step beyond the process of
selling on good news to that Of Selling
in anticipation of good news and on
rumors Of good news. The official
statement Of today shows a further
increase of surplus stocks, although
the amount is small, less than 100000
pounds, and much the smallest in
crease for any month for long time
past. Efforts We're made to correct
the bad effect of shortcomings of the
statement compared with the predic-
tion by reports of very heavy sales
made since the first of the month and
by explanations of delayed deliveries
Which had been expected to figure in
the month by distractions to lake
shipments The heavy tone of the cop
per market persisted in spite of these
explanations.

prospect for money rates the bond
market was narrowed today, although
