RIGHT OF CONTRACT
BY MARRIED WOMAN
Privileged to Order NeCessaries
for Family and Can
Be Sued.

A married woman may contract to
pay for articles which are necessaries,
is the syllabus of finding by the SUI
preme court, handed down yesterday, in
the case Of the Won Hamm- Young Com
pany, Limited, VS.. Mrs. w. Welsh.
This was an appeal from the district
magistrate of Honolulu. The plaintiff
company sued the defendant for the
recovery of $4.S4 for goods supplied at
her request. She pleaded in abatement
of the action that summons was served
on her as Mrs. w. Welsh, that her true
name was Katherine Keffer Welsh, that
she was the wife of William Lawrence
Welsh and that the account sued on was
for necessaries for herself and family
and debt of her husband. The plain
tiff company moved to amend the sum
mons and complaint by substituting the
name of Katherine Keller Welsh in the
place of Mrs. w. Welsh The magis
trate denied the motion to amend and
sustained the plea in abatement, giving
judgment for the defendant.
Judge De Bolt gave it as his opinion
that the motion TO amend should have
been granted, as the proposed amend
ment was proper. The plea in abate-
ment should not have been sustained,
quoting:
fThe statute which authorizes a mar
ried woman to make contracts and to
sue and be sued is not confined to con.
tracts for purchases which are not nee
essaries, nor does it preclude her from
contracting to pay for articles which
the husband is bound to furnish. The
right to make such contracts implies
liability TO be sued upon them.'
Tho Judgment Of the district magis.
trate was reversed and the case re.
handed
Attorneys f. e. Peters and F.
Schnaek appeared for the plaintiff.

HAWAII TO BE USED
AS NATIONAL EXAMPLE

Hawaii is to be used to illustrate the
whole labor situation throughout the
United States, according to the adver-
tisement of the American Magazine,
announcing series by Ray Stannari
Baker. The advertisement reads:
Next year Mr.. Baker will write for
The American Magazine a remarkable
series of articles depicting the indus
trial struggle of the day. He will do
this in an entirely new and graphic
way He will describe completely and
clearly the industrial life of Hawaii.
For, ,on this small stage, the whole
drama of the industrial conflict of the
present day world is being played in
terms that can be easily UNDERSTOOD. y

ton of the new department. He is
somewhat in advance of some of the
departments which have only an adju.
tant-general, with an aide for the gem
eral commanding. In Hawaii there is
chief of staff in addition.
However, the general trend of bust.
ness will run along about in the same
channels, but the new order brings
General Macomb into considerable more
prominence in the military establish
ment of the United States, for he is
now in full control of a department
which is regarded in government cir.
cles as destined to be one of the most
important military stations under the
flag, and is already assuming the pro.
portions of a Malta.
Growth Is Rapid.
General Macomb was the first com
mander with the rank of general of
the district of Hawaii, Colonel Schuy-
Ter, Fifth Cavalry, having first assumed
temporary command, relinquishing his
duties upon the arrival of General Ma.
comb. The change of status of Hawaii,
from a military standpoint, has been
rapid.
For nearly ten years United States
troops were stationed here, but it was
merely command without proper gar.
rison equipment. Then came the build
ing of Fort Shafter; then later came a
regiment OF, cavalry, giving the colonel
the command of the troops on. Oahu;
then came additional troops and the
designation of Hawaii as military
district, and now in less than year
Hawaii is elevated to the distinction of
a department.
The department commander COM
mences his duties as such with force
of about $500 men under his command.

Washington to represent them and get
protection for the workingman.
Previously to his English address, he
spoke at length in Hawaiian but ma

clares that he viii stay here antil the
