The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1911-06-09

NEW YORK, May 18.-James M.
Beck, who has taken part in many of
the cases arising under the Sherman
antitrust law, and who was formerly
assistant attorney general of the
United States, made this comment to
day upon the Standard Oil decision:
ga lame and impotent conclusion
The greatest tribunal in the world,
after celebrating for more than a
year and writing an opinion of 10000
words, has failed in any tangible way
to interpret law which business men
must, under the peril of possible i'm
prisonment, infallibly interpret from
day to day as occasion arises. This in
itself justifies a grave doubt as to
the policy of law which yields 80
little to judicial Interpretation. If
the Supreme Court, after twenty-one
years, cannot tell the business men
of the country what is reasonable, it
is clearly oppressive to require lay
men to do so.
ut is inconceivable that the SUI
preme Court did not wish to help in
a situation which had grown intolera-
BILE. 1t could not have willingly al
lowed the country to founder around
for another decade in a quagmire of
doubt and uncertainty. If Chief JUS
tice White cannot define what is 'rea-
sonable in the matter of the cooper
alton of capital, then no one can, for
the Supreme Court has had few, if any
justices of more acute understanding
or luminous power Of statement since
John Marshall.
An Intolerable Statute
ut must, therefore, be the fact that
the law is unsusceptible of exact and
tangible definition, and, if so, the stat
ute deserves the condemnation of
every right-thinking man, for it is or
ought to be intolerable in free gov
eminent that the liberty, the property
and the reputation of men should de-
pend upon a statute at whose real
meaning neither the executive, the ju.
dietary, the bar nor the press can do
more than guess.
"The decision unquestionably has a
temporary sentimental value in reliev-
ing the business of the country from
the greatest incubus of a doctrine
which held that all agreements in re-

propositions concerning the future dis
position Of the premises. She did con-
firm in a part a rumor, which the re-
porter had been investigating for some
weeks past, to the effect that it was
proposed to establish an old ladies'
home on the premises. Only with
this difference, that while the rumor
made it her proposal, the fact was
that she had been approached by two
prominent lady workers of Central
Union Church to ascertain if the
premises were available for that be-
nevolent project. No understanding
on the subject was reached and the
negotiations have apparently ended.
Mrs Foster returned to town only the
other day from stay of some weeks
at Kahana Beach.
While a number of proposals re-
garding the college property have been
made to her, and she has some ideas
of her own about 1t, Mrs. Foster said
that nothing would be decided until
after the return of her agent, e. H.
Wodehouse, from England.

GREAT JANSEN
MYSTIFIES ALL

Jansen mystified a large audience
at the Orpheum theater again last
night, and as usual gave an excellent
performance There have been some
other magicians here in times gone
by but from now on everybody COM
ing here will be compared with Jansen,
as he is easily the most battling one of
them all. There is something almost
supernatural about the feats of this
skillful worker as he has rightly been
given the title of Death Demonstration
of deceptice dexerty." All his illusions
are clever and Asra, the Mystery of
the Air, has everybody guessing. jan
sen exposed the Box Mystery last
night. This was one of the greatest
mysteries ever presented but it is
not a mystery any longer since Jansen
allowed himself to be nailed into a
dry goods box, calling for a commit
tee from the audience who used the
hammer and nails very freely driving
nails in all directions Of the box. In
less than ten seconds Jansen was
cut of the box. Now that the trick
is exposed perhaps dry goods boxes
will be at a premium. For tonignts
performance a change OF program is
announced. All the specialties will
be changed and Jansen will be seen
in some of his choicest illusions. Matt
nee Saturday afternoon, and with
Saturday nights performance the COM
pany will close its engagements here.

for the adult and all danger from chol-

secured, and canoeing under supervis-
ion of directors or counselors will
be one of the interesting features of
camp life.
Fishing-at least one night excur-
sion for fishing by torchlight will be
given the boys under competent guild
es.
Boy Scout Games-Mr. James Wild
er will have charge of this department,
and his presence will guarantee to
the boys a jolly good time combined
with the best instruction. in the
fundamental principles of right living
and high ideals.
Excursions.
Native heiaus and burial caves,
mountain trails, picturesque valleys
and waterfalls, and old battle fields
will be the object of many an excur-
sion, instructive as we'll as full of
pleasure. Excursion parties may be
organized by the boys and trips taken
with the approval of the directors.
One or more counselers will accom-
pany the boys on all such trips. Land
shells are abundant, and these trips
will afford an excellent opportunity to
make collection. Any boy who has
an interest in Natural Science will
find the valley a paradise for collecting
specimens.
Camp Life.
The principle of learning to do by
doing will be a fundamental one of
camp life. The value of team work
will be taught by having each boy
share in the duties and responsible
ties of the camp.
Every effort VIII be made to have
the living arrangements sanitarv and
comfortable. The camp has an ideal
location from tho standpoint of hot'th
being on the land belonging to Mr.
c. G. Conradt, where pure spring
water may be had in abundance. Dairy
products are supplied fresh from the
neighboring ranch, and good, whole
some food will be provided. The boys
sleep in tents.
The physical welfare will be care
fully attended to, and on entering
camp a record will be made of the
physical condition, height, weight,
chest expansion, etc.. of each boy. A

are his best prisoners Usually they
take right hold of the work in hand
and labor honestly and earnestly,
and make all their time count that
they can, knowing that the better
they act the quicker they will be set
free.

for these men to pay their fines If
the weather stays so they can work

HUSBAND AND

WINE ROOM RAID RESULTS IN A
HORRIBLE TRAG-
EDY.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Oct. 27.-In
duel fought between Perry eleven
ger and his wife at their residence on
Asylum avenue this afternoon, Mrs.
Clevenger was shot once, dying in
three or four minutes, and Clevenger
received one bullet wound from a SO
calibre revolver in the hands of his
wife, Clevenger went to his room
and shot himself a second time dy-
ing in four minutes time.
The trouble arose, it is believed,
over Mrs. Clevenger's objection to a
wine room" operated at the soft
drink stand of which her husband
was proprietor. She was responsible
for raid on her husbands place of
business half an hour before the
shooting. This is statement OF the

MOTOR BOAT
SHOOTS RAPIDS
CAPT. LARkIN HAS THRILLING
EXPERIENCE AT Nj
AGARA.

NIAGARA, Oct. 31.-Captain Kians
Larken, of Detroit, today made his
second Niagara river trip il nu-
tor boat from the cataract to Lew
iston. He completed the six mile
trip through the turbulent water in
twenty-five minutes, coming through
without a scratch. Larken says he
is through with Niagara adventure,
but next year will make trip across
the Atlantic in his boat, the Niagara.
Larken started from the Canadian
Maid of the Mist dock at 1:50 o'clock
and swept under the lower steel arch
bridge five minutes later. Coming
into Swift Drift, where the river
breaks from the calm upper reach to
the rapids, he veered toward the Ca
madam side.
The boat rode the smaller waves
without a tremor, but caught by the
fierce current about midway of the
rapids, she was hurled up and almost
clear of the mountains of water.
Once the craft was sideswiped md
almost keeied over by comber. The
rapids trip took hardly more than
minute.

DEMOCRATS CUT
APPROPRIATIONS
CHAIRMAN FITZGERALD OUT.
LINES ACTION OF

| WASHINGTON, Nov. I've are
going to appropriate all that is need
ed to run the Government economi
cally, and not cent MORE" said Re-
preventative John J. Fitzgerald, Of
New York, chairman of the House
Appropriation Committee, today. He
ran over for few hours from his
home to have look at some of the
estimates for the coming year sub
mitted by the legislative depart
ments. Mr.. Fitzgerald would not
hazard guess as to how much
money the Democratic House would
lop off the big supply bills at the
next session of Congress, but he al
lowed it to be inferred that the
amount would be considerable.
I'VE are not going to pass an ap
preparation bills-I may say, we are
not going to report any from this
committee-unless we know every.
thing that is in them and are able
to explain and uphold every item. !
know next year is campaign year,
and many members of Congress may
want to get away early. | would like
to get away early, too, but do not
think this committee is going to rush
the supply bills through to, accom-.
plish that result We are going to
take all the time we need.
! hope that we may be able to
pass one of the appropriation bills
before the holiday recess, but just
which one we will report FIRST has
not yet been decided upon. II expect
that seventeen of the twenty-one
members of the committee among
them Representative Swagaf Sherleyi
of Louisville, will be in the party
that will leave New York November
8 for Panama. We will hold meet
ings on the ship going AND corning,
and while we are on the isthmus we
will sit all day and well into the
night hearing what the canal officials
have to say about the needs Of the
work next year. We will be away
about three weeks"
Representative Sherley is chair
man Of the subcommittee on Fcrti
fcations, and has much important
work in Panama.

POULTRY RAISING
AS A SCIENCE

1t may strike some persons as
strange that the proposition is seri-
ously advanced at San Diego, the Ex-
position City, to teach poultry raising
as a science. The suggestion is made
that it be made a part of the curricu-
lum of the rural schools. A. E. RIeth-
en-, President of the Poultry Farciers
Club, is father of the idea, ard he
wants to have the children given
chickens to care for, and to earn
their pocket money with. California
now imports many eggs from Kan
sas, Nebraska and other states,
whereas Mr.. Blethen thinks that she
should be exporting hen products.

had been screaming in the willows in
the river front all day. Capt. Couch
sent Richmond to the scene. He was
accompanied by the three strangers.

the svreams were coming from be-
yond the river. They hailed a gaso.

them over. There we're two men in
