bottles Of gin, which they confiscated.
In the meantime there had been a
general exodus Of the dancers and
what few remained were arrested for

VARIOUS DEALS
IN KUKAIAU

Nothing Of any great moment dcyel
opod in the Horner case this morn
ing, the only enlivenment being the
frequent tilts between attorneys that
have marked the case all the way
through.
f. NJ. Swanzy finished his test
mony yesterday afternoon and this
morning Albert Horner again took
the stand, under cross-examination at
the hands of Judge Stanley.
Mr.. Horner was questioned in re.
gard to the purchase of certain shares
OF the stock of Kukaiau plantation
He stated that he bought twentysix
shares from his brother Howard and
tried to give them to his wife but she
refused to have them, so he was OBJ
liged to retain them.
He was asked concerning the pur-
chase of a block of the stock from his
sister-in-law, Mrs. Jay Horner, widow
of his brother. and replied that he
bought them in compliance with her
request. Asked as to whether that
request were verbal or in writing, he
replied that it was is writing. Coun-
sci then asked him to produce the let
ter, which he said he could do, and
a recess was taken to give him time
to go after the document.
1t is probable that the cross-eXam.
ination of Albert Horner will be con
cluded some time this afternoon.

1t is expected that the number OF
Hawaiian birth certificates issued to
Orientals at the Secretary's Office for
the fiscal year ending June 80 next
will not exceed seventy-five, against
about two thousand for the previous
year, The cost of procuring the Ger.
tificates, when a notary public is en-
ployed, and the stopping by parents of
registering their female babies-who
can never vote-are among the causes
given for the tremendous slump.
The meeting Of the Central I'm

have been held on Friday afternoon.
April 16, at 4 O'Clock. The meeting
will be held in the rooms of the Ho-
nolulu Merchants Association. One of
the matters to come up will be the re-
rort of the special committee on the
parking of Kalakaua avenue, and it
is also likely that some action will
be taken by way of furthering the
plan for securing legislation in line
with the "Manoa Plan" of direct as
sessment for street improvement.

COURT ITEMS

In the matter of Smith versus
Smith, an assumpsit involving in the
neighborhood of $1,000, Judge Whit.
ney this morning granted the motion
OF counsel for the defendant for
leave to file a plea in bar. The de-
fendant is w. H. Smith, the shoe man,
while the plaintiff is his former wife.
The plea in bar is based upon the
fact that the money sued for was
loaned to Smith by Mrs. Smith while
she was yet his wife, and that, there
fore, she has no ground for action
against him.

A GREAT ORATOR
IS IN HONOLULU

The steamer Nile Yesterday brought
to Honolulu Rev Dr and Mrs. Arthur
II. Smith of China, both of whom are
well known in this city. DR.. Smith
enjoys the reputation throughout the
English-speaking world of being the
ablest speaker on the subject Of China
in America, If not in the world. DR..
Smith was appointed missionary 20
North China under the American
Board forty years ago Stationed in
the country in the interior, he be-
came intimately acquainted with the
life of the people, and familiarized
himself with everything concerning
the civilization of the Empire After
many years of this stort of study, his
knowledge lowered into the two
books which have become classics
wherever the English language is
spoken - Chinese characteristics"
and Village Life in China" The
publication of these works at once
made DR.. Smith one of the famous
men of the world. OF recent years he
has added a number of other impor-
tant works to these.
It is not often that great writer
is also a successful speaker; but
whenever DR.. Smith returned to
America and was put to work pre-
senting the cause of China among the
churches it was found that not only
church-goers, but people who never
went to church, flocked in large num-
bers to hear him. Possessed of sing
ular magnetism, bubbling over with
ideas so multitudinous and so bril-
liant that it seemed impossible for a
man to crowd so much though into
so short a space of time, and withal
master of a rare wit that kept his
audiences in the very best of humors.
it is no wonder that DR.. Smith be-
came the most popular missionary
speaker that has delighted American
audiences in this generation. When
ever a great campaign on behalf of
missions is to be waged in the United
States by the American Board, or anv
great interdenominational campaign
is to be conducted, it becomes neces-
sary to send all the way to China to
import DR.. Smith. In this way his
services have been in such freuuent
demand of late years on public occa-
sions that he has been recognized as
a missionary-at-large belonging rather
to the world than to China alone. and
his labors are now largely inspira-
tional, awakening a deeper interest In
the great nation which he loves, and
bringing to English-speaking peoples
a more intimate knowledge of things
Chinese
1t is very fortunate that DR.. Smith
finds it convenient to spend one week
in Honolulu at this time. He has
very kindly consented to speak in
Central Union church next Sunday
on the theme, "The Rising
Tide in the Far East" On Sunday
evening in the same church he will
address a mass meeting of all Eng
ish-speaking people irrespective of
ace. His theme will naturally be
The Newest Republic" On Monday
'vening the Mems League will have
lin as their special guest, with the
opic, "The Future of the Pacific |
World" No member of the League
Who has a spark of Imagination about
lin or any adequate conception Of

ties are charged against the success

easily. Henry Lyman of Kapoho was
generally regarded as a Frear sup.
porter, but he is inclined toward
Kuhio in the event of the controversy

end

On windward Hawaii the primaries
