QUEENS LAWYER
WILL Be BALLOU
He viii Represent Her Before
the Court of Claims at the
National Capital.

Before the court of claims at Wash
ington. ex.Queen Liliuokalani's claim
for n portion of the revenues from the
crown lands of Hawaii, after the over.
throw of the monarchy in 1893, will be
presented early in the coming year,
and possibly by Judge S. NJ. Ballou of
the law firm of Kinney, Ballou, Pros
ser & Anderson.
The Queen is now en- route to Wash
ington, accompanied by her private
secretary, j. d. Aimoku. AS usual,
she will make an appeal to the federal
government for reimbursement, but
this time the claim will be presented
with all due formality, under legal
procedure. 1t is believed here that
the Queen has better chance for rec.
ognition by this congress than by any
other, although the ultimatum has been
issued by cabinet heads that curtail-
ment of expenses and appropriations
must be made this coming year.
1t is believed that the Queen g
claim will be for a sum amounting to
about 100000. All congressman who
came here this year, as well as those
who were here two years ago as guests
of the Territory, are in favor of the
queens claim, and if presented in a
manner which will be reasonable, it is
believed that proper steps may bt
taken to grant her request.

WILL SNAPSHOT
HALLEY'S COMET
Scientist Coming Here to Make
Observations and Pictures
in March.

Professor Everman of the staff of
the Mount Wilson observatory at Pasa-
dena, has advised the promotion COM
mittee that he will arrive here about
March l with six-inch telescope, fit
ted to take photographs of the HALEY
comet.
The fact that Professor Everman is
coming here ON a mission so full of
scientific interest, indicates that the
Hawaiian Islands may be regarded as
particularly good field for astronomic
observations.
The professor states that he will
probably locate his instrument at Eva
and probably at the United States seis-
mograph station, where he says he un-
derstands, the atmospheric conditions
are exceptionally good,
He also asks whether the roads are
good enough for motorcycle riding He
states that he has a twin-cylinder In
dian motorcycle and, with his family
residing in Honolulu, he would like tC
come into town daily.
The Mount Wilson observatory is af
filiated with the Carnegie Institute OF
Washington.

LE0P0LD'S WILL
is THREATENED
Daughters Get But One Million
Dollars Each From Vast
Estate.
(By Associated Press.)

BRUSSELS, December 1s.-Though
the private fortune left by the late
King Leopold reaches almost fabulous
figures, the royal will, which was open
ed yesterday, divides but $3,OO0,OOO
among the three daughters of the late
monarch. This is looked upon as prac-
tical disinheritance, and the announce
ment of the provisions of the testa-
ment signalizes the beginning of gi-
gantic lawsuits on behalf of the prln-
cesses to secure control of the enor-
nous wealth left by Leopold.
All Belgium is now in official mourn
ing for the late King, and all public
places have been closed. An official
decree, issued yesterday, lauds Leo
pold S career and lauds the late mon
arch as a great King.
Prince Albert, who succeeds to the
throne, will take the solemn oath of
Office on Thursday next.
May Contest.
BRUSSELS, December 1.-THE son
of the Baroness Vaughan will possibly
contest the throne with Prince Albert,
Count of Flanders, nephew of the late
King Leopold. 1t is said that the
Vatican has confirmed the marriage of
the baroness with the late King, of
which union the pretender was issue.

IKamehameha Schools Commence
Annual Tribute to Be-
loved Memory.
UPPER CLASSMEN AS COOKS
Many Prominent Persons Attend
Festivities in Honor of
PhiIanthropist.
(From Sundays Advertiser.)

(frOm SUNDAY AuNeTllseT.)
The celebration of Founders Day at
the Kamehameha Schools, which oc-
ours today, was prefaced last night by
the annual luau, held this year day
previous owing to the day itself fall
ing on a Sunday. There were four
hundred and fifty at table in the gym
nasium building, and it took the entire
boys school to tend their needs.
The tables were entirely covered
with ferns and ii leaves. With the
exception of few invited guests, the
alumni and alumnae alone were az the
banquet.
Owing to the great number to serve,
the work was divided up among the
various classes. The sixth-grade boys
prepared the luau, while the fourth
grade boys dished it up in style. 1t
remained for the boys of the fifth
grade to clear away the remains; but
they had very easy job. The lower
grade boys waited on the table, and
around the entrance to the inner room
was always seething mass of tray
carriers, through which the dinner
came without accident, but nobody
could explain how.
Among the guests were Mr.. and Mrs.
Ebersole, AR. and Mrs. Oleson, Mr.. and
Mrs. Theodore Richards, Mrs. Allen,
Mr.. and Mrs. Krauss, Mrs. Prosser,
Mrs. Lathrop, Judge Woodruff, Mrs
Reid, Mr.. and Mrs. rhummel.
The Hon. w. o. Smith, president Of
the board of trustees of the schools
will make the Founders Day address
in the Bishop Memorial Chapel at II
o clock. To this a general invitation
has been extended, and particularly tc
Hawaiians.
Services in memory of the lat,
| Princess Bernice Pauahi Bishop, thu
| founder, will be held at the mausoleun
| at 4 o'clock in the afternoon.

Mexico and Central America May
Be Formed Into One
Country.
WASHINGTON is NOT PLEASED
Southern Republics Are Said to
Be Ready to Join
Hands. !
(By Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, December 1s.-It is
believed here that there is well-de-
veloped plan on foot looking toward
the consolidation of the Republic Of
Mexico with the various States of Cen
trail America. The rumor seems to
have strong foundation and is appar-
emily given credence in high officiai
quarters.
The plan, so well-authenticated re-
port says, is to amalgamate the coun-
tries under the name of the United
States Of Central America. Mexico is
said to be committed to the proposal.
Such a move would make Mexico tho
dominant power in all Central Ameri-
can matters and would give that coun-
try immense influence. The plan does
not meet with the favor of high Off
cials of the United States government.

RIVAL THRONES
IN THE CAPITOL
Conflicting Claims to RuIership
Causes RuCtion and Two
Courts Are Held.
cFrom Saturdays Advertiser,

Although the Territory didn't know
it, it yesterday faced one Of the great
est crises in its history. Only the kind
intervention of Fate saved its politi-
cal system from total destruction. 1t
all arose through Acting Governor
Mott-Smith developing an indisposi-
ton.
When he left his Office yesterday
morning to return home and attempt
TO recover his lost equilibrium, Claud-
ius Fl. Mcbride, private secretary to a
prodigaI Governor, understood that in
structions had been left which made
him the Acting Acting-Governor. He
alleges that he was told by Mr.. Mott,
Smith to take care of the Office.
The real Acting Governor had no
sooner disappeared over the horizon
when rival warwhoop sounded from
the other side of the hall, and Acting
Attorney General Andrews stuck his
head out and surveyed the scenery.
Failing TO discover any substitute for
chief executive, he climbed up ON
| what he considered his rights and rode
over to the Governors sanctuary.
There he discovered Mcbride in the
softest chair, with his feet on pile
| of correspondence and n chief eXecu.
| tive cigar stuck in an aperture of his
face at an angle of forty five degrees
with the horizontal.
Andrews outraged feelings found
vent in low growl which caused Nc
Brides back hair to bristle up and
float on the trade winds that were
coming in through the open window.
With the whole force of his lega
training and the authority of his Office
Andrews settled down to prove to thC
secretary that according to every law
of man and God he was the Acting
Governor pending the rearrival of Mr.
Mott-Smith. as in his capacity as attor
ney general he was in line to the
throne by divine right. Mcbride, how
ever, requires more than law to de
prive him of his rights, and quoted
Shakespeare and Mott,Smith by tn,
yard, in which he made it appear thai
somebody had given the attorney gen
|'eral bum steer, and until the right
full claimant came back he was goinl
to hold the official lid,
Arbitration failing to result in any
thing definite, Andrews returned to hi
own sanctum and opened a rival courf
and so matters stood the entire after
noon. When interviewed late yester
day as to the situation, Mr.. McBrid
said:
"We are rivals. We are opening a
the Governor mail and he is waitin
for something weighty to come up tina
: he can decide Nothing has as ye
come in, as Treasurer Conkling has no
r yet turned in his resignation.

Washington, D. c. Although made
March under the order of the Sec
rotary of the interior at the request of
the secretary of agriculture, the ma
ture of the change even yet is little
known
The act of March 2 provides that
hereafter all contests must be insti-
tuted by the general land Office
through the chief of the field division
in which the homestead is located in
stead of by the forest supervisor.
The reason given for the change is
that the forestry service is a branch
Of the department of agriculture and
concerned with the conservation of
natural resources, rather than with
the efforts Of the government to pre-
vent fraud in the acquisition of land,
function of the general land office.

REVIVAL OF SONG

Spiritual revivals are one OF the
most essential of all for the building
up of the church and the power of
Christian faith. Some churches call
it mission work and in its true sense
there are all of these meanings in it..
Now how about revival of song,
the great power used in these meet
ings for the uplifting of mankind?
Could there not be a glorious result
from such a feast? The time has
come when music must be fostered
and taught through the medium of
all churches and the organization that
puts forth an effort of this kind can
see the results in the same proper
ton as they do from the revival and
mission work of the same body.
