BURNS HAND TO
KEEP AFFINITY
Destroys Tattoo Marks Placed

Especial Correspondence of The Cali

Especial Correspondence of The Call
HONOLULU, Sept. "A case of mari-
tai infidelity that had to be filtered
through three languages occupied the
center of the stage in legal circles here
today. 1t furnishes an example both of
the lengths to which a woman will go
to gain and hold her affinity and of the
difficulhes experienced lin Hawaii in ad-
ministering the white mans burden
among the orientals in the population.
The matter was one of bigamy, heard
before United States Commissioner
spencer with the aid of three inter
prefers. one to translate and interpret
from English into Chinese and vice
versa another to put English into, Jap
anese. and another to turn Japanese
into the patois talked by the people of
the Riukiu islands, people. who look
like Japanese, but talk a language re-
sembling that of the Formosan head
hunters. There are some thousand of
these people here, but there is no one
in Honolulu who can speak this lam
guage and also English. This made it
necessary to secure Japanese to pass
the questions on to the defendant and
another Japanese to filter the questions
and answers from the first interpreter
to the court.
The defendant was a Riukiu-Japa-
nese with a Chinese affinity. She wore
Chinese clothes and had a small stock
of American curses with which she
emphasized her testimony. 1t was no.
ticeable that whenever. cursing was
necessary every dialect and language
gave way to good old Anglo Saxon, the
words standing out clear from the sur
Japanese, Chinese and Riu-
kiu. The complainant was the origi-
nal Riukiu husband of the defendant,
and his strong exhibit in the way of
evidence was the defendant herself. on
whose knuckles was tattooed the mar
riage certificate. as is the Riuliu Gus
tom.4 When this exhibit was presented,
however, it was discovered that the
woman had almost burned out the
tattoo marks with acid. the flesh be-
ing eaten out almost to the bone.
This was recent doing, although the
woman had skipped away from her
Riukiu love some months ago and mar
ried her Chinese affinity. Christian
