UNTYING NUPTIAL
KNOTS IN COURT
(FTOm Wednesdays Advertiser.)

(From Wednesdays Advertiser.)
Slamming of doors and other OBJ
noxious raekets in order that the noise
prevent sleep, are among the allega-
tions made by Mrs. Leonie Silva
against Manuel A. Silva, from whom
she was granted a divorce by Third
yesterday.
Judge Robinson had a regular field
day with mismated couples yesterday.
Five petitions were dealt with, three
being in regard to Japanese.
Mrs. Silva, in her complaint, said
the marriage took place in Los Angeles
in 1895. The couple have lived here
eleven years, however. The grounds on
which the divorce was granted were
extreme cruelty and desertion, part of
the cruelty being the making of noises
preventing sleep, which helped to make
the woman nervous wreck.
A sad tale of cruelty and illtreat-
ment, caused by a man s fondness for
intoxicants, was told by Mrs. Mary j.
Macdonald in her petition asking for
a divorce from Capt. Angus Macdonald,
which was granted by Judge Robinson.
The couple were married here on Feb
ruary 2s, 1919. Mrs Macdonald said
that owing to the incorporate habits
of her seafaring husband she was
forced TO leave him three times within
year. Hoping that he would mend
his ways, she repeatedly forgaye him.
She alleged that he used to follow her
on the streets and mOrtify her by call.
ing out TO her and that he publicly in.
suited her in restaurants in the city.
She says that ON the evening of their
marriage he struck her and that he re-
peatedly beat her thereafter Finally
he beat her and deserted her in San
Pedro, California.
Mrs. Nellie oeampo, who recently
secured divorce from Alfred Oeampo,
has accepted IA certain sum Of money
from her former husband, thereby
waving alimony, costs Of the court
aud any allowance OF any kind that
might be made by the eirelit eonrt.
Alfred oepmpo has promised 10 pay
her or the custodian Of their minor
child, q sum Of not less than IS poT
week for the support Of the latter.

MYSTERY OF LONG AND SHORT DEMIJ0HNS
UNS0LVED, AND THERE IS A MIGHTY ROAR

respecting jag.
Orders, bills and bills-of-lading were
brought out yesterday by perplexed
agent and purchasers and on every one
was simply marked so many 81 gallon
Red Stripe demijuhns." The fact that
the shortages varied so greatly is taken
as indicating that it was not deliber.
ately intended, but is due to careless
ness in blowing and other reasons
Mr.. Davis states that while the fac.
tories will make any size bottle at the
purchasers order, including short gal
Ions labeled so.called gallons" and
other shady devices, not in his recollec.
tiOn has he ever received such an order
and all that he has handled has been
for 81 gallon" the result being un.
suspectingly received by the LOCAL trade.
The roar among the liquor merchants
increased in volume when it was diseov-
cred that the five gallon demijohns held
twenty ounces, or almost quart, too
much.
About 400 dozen demijohns will soon
have their fare paid back to the Coast
by outraged jag dispensers.

In order to ADJUST the sewer rates
in accordance with the provisions of

are connected with the sewer are re-
quested to call at the office of the

OF the public works department under

those who have been paying sewer

Ford while l was having lunch with
him one day in Sydney. had read an
article of his in magazine and heard
that he was coming to Sydney. His
writing had impressed me with the
fact that he was the right sort of man
and I was determined not to let him
get away without having a talk with
him. All the ideas l had formed came
true and as a result of that talk the
present movement of the Hands

a "PcrversiOn Of
the Facts.
NO CHARGE MADE
Speaker Says a Great
Injustice Has Been
Done.
fTrom wednesday s Advertiser.) }


Speaker Holstein neither accused
Marston Campbell, superintendent of
public works, with grating, nor any
one in connection with the carrying on
of pablic works or connected with the
supplying of material for public works
Neither did he state that he was in
possession of any evidence to justify
such a charge.
Yesterday The Advertiser received
from the speaker a copy of an open
letter, addressed to j. f. Cowan, the
pastor of the Kohala Union Church.
who is also responsible for the utter
ances of the Kohala Midget, the little
newspaper printed by the boys under
Mr.. Cowan IS instruction, which has
made quite a name for itself through
out the Territory and which is widely
quoted. In his letter, which Mr.. Hol-
stein requests The Advertiser to pub
lish, the Midget editor is taken severe
ly to task, Mr.. Holstein stating that
the Midget report of the league meet
ing was erroneous, misleading and a
perversion of the facts' and an Gin

amount for us and who l am sure will
continue to do so. He has taken keen
interest in the matter as was shown
by the fact of him writing me q letter
advising me of the fact that had been
elected an honorary vice president of
the club. Mr.. Ford has also been one
of the mainstays of the club and is
doing better work for promotion gem
orally than any man I know of at the
present time. J. P. Cooke came in with
the matter from it's inception and has
also helped us out very materially.

During my tour this time / will
make further inquiries into the matter
of the Around America train," which
the club has on hand and also the mat.
ter of the proposed Pacific tour in one

into the matter of the establishment of
a tourist bureau there. Australia has
made up her mind to go into this thing
ard the club win work hand in hand
with her in the project. In the old
GAYS chain of mountains used TO sepa

An Open Letter.
Kohala, May 10,

Kohala, May 10, 1911.
Mr.. j. F. Cowan of The Kohala
Midget:-In your Midget of the 18th
inst, in commenting on the league
meeting in reference to the Mahukona
landing, you say that Speaker Hol-
stein comes down tiatfooted and de-
elares that there is sufficient evidence
in the records of Campbell's Is own office
to convict him of taking graft in con-
nection with the use of steel bars in all
the reinforced concrete work done
under the board of public works" and
that "Mr. Holstein alleges that Mr..
Campbell insisted that the wharf could
not be built for less than $4,000 and
that he tore up the specifications. /"
Allow me to correct your editorial,
or whatever you may call it, and to
say that your statement is erroneous,
misleading and perversion of the
facts.
In my address to the league I did
not accuse Mr.. Campbell, superintend-
emit of public works, of graft, neither
did I claim that there was sufficient
evidence to convict him of graft.
1 distinctly stated that to a layman
like myself, who did not understand
the difference in the two bars for re-
inforeed work, that the steel bars for
which it is claimed about $4,000 was
needed, would look as if there was
graft, when compared with steel rails,
for which about $400 was said to be
ample.
To charge public man with graft
when You have not the slightest foun-
dation for such in my statement to the
league is absurd; and then again, did
not say that Campbell insisted that the
wharf could not be built for less than
$4,000 and that he tore up the specifis
cations. What I stated was that under
the draft of specifications then drawn
and shown me Campbell said it would
take about $4,000 to build such a
wharf.
Every one present at the league
meeting regrets that you have taken
the liberty of writing up such an ar
tiele as contained in the Midget, be-
cause you not only do me an injustice
but also Mr.. Campbell and the public
works department, and perhaps re-
donnd against the early completion of
the Mahukona landing.
My charges against NJ Campbell
were for thwarting the early construc-
tion of the wharf and for promises
made and the embarrassment l felt
whenever / spoke to him as to when he
was to go ahead with the work.
Yours truly, II. L. HoLSTEIN.

spokane's Example.

Among the other speakers was Victor
NJ. Smith of Spokane, who gave an in.
teresting account of the manner in
which the chamber of commerce in that
town had reached out for the young
men and enthused them until vast
promotion army has sprung up. A han-
dred thousand club was organized, ran
over the mark and is now a two hun.
dred thousand club. sfOur chamber of
commerce, he continued, "is very
much an organization ON the lines of
your public service bureau. All the
public service organizations belong TO
it. 1t is their clearing house. We
have a press bureau which does not
care if it is never mentioned as long
as the date line of Spokane goes up.
The first thing that we went to work
upon was the educating of ourselves.
Get your people to know Hawaii and
its advantages and they can inform
those who come. You have to lay the
foundation at home.
