Shortly before the hour for hearing
the petition this morning the demure
See Mey Soong, accompanied by a
stern-visaged Chinese matron, entered
Judge Cooper's court and sat down.
A moment later Kim Paw, accompa-
MED by Lorrin Andrews. his legal
counsel, also entered and chose the
seat just in front of the ladies.
Greeted With Slap.
He turned, recognized the maiden,
and impulsively thrust his hand for
ward to her in greeting, but to his
surprise the tickle miss raised her
hand and-slapped him!
To be certain of his ground in this
difficult case the court decided to hold
a semisecret inquiry. so he summoned
See Mey Soong. Attorney Andrews and
Attorney George A. Davis. represent
ing the Chinese father. into his private
office and. with the aid of an interpre-
ter, questioned the young lady. This
was acting on the theory that the girl
would not speak her mind freely in the
presence of her parents, but would
say what she thought If removed from
their direct influence temporarily.
She surprised them by making the
statements mentioned above. Attorney
Andrewsl under the circumstances,
could only ask that the application be
dismissed.
Kim Paw, in his application, declared
that See Mey Soong was held against
her will, and that she had been sold to
a wealthy Chinese. This phase of the
affair was not discussed at the morn
ingss proceedings.

TO TAKE VACATION

The Honorable William J. Robinson,
third Judge of the First Circuit Court,
Honolulu, who at present is the old
est federal judicial appointee in the
Territory, will leave next week for
his first vacation in five years. He
will leave either on the transport
Thomas or on the Manchuria for the
Coast and will be gone about sixty
days.
In this trip he is taking advan-
tage of the leave of absence granted
him by the Acting Attorney General
of the Territory on October l, 1899.
1t is the first opportunity ne has had
to escape the heavy routine of Judi
cial work that has held HIM since
1905, when the stress of work became
so heavy that he nearly broke down
from physical and nervous exhaustion.
He will spend portion of his vaca-
ton visiting his mother and sister. at
his old home in Alameda, California.
He has written H. H. Prou.y, of Port
land, brother of Chas A. Pronty of
the Interstate Commerce Commis
sion, and it is likely that these two
will journey into the Yellowstone
Park for a lengthy tour.
During his absence fee cases which
may need immediate attention will be
handled by Judge Whitney for q time,
and later by Judge Cooper.

w. J. Dyer, assistant manager of
the Honolulu Iron Works, was much
interested In the extract from Trop-
ical Life, London magazine, reprint
ed in the Star-Bulletin yesterday. Be
ing an Englishman himself by birth
and having in his travels in the in
terest of the big local foundry run
across sugar machinery from British
shops, Mr.. Dyer fully appreciates the
plant of the London periodical re-
garding the lead Hawaii is taking In
many quarters in the placing Of or
ders for sugar mills and machinery.
"They do not understand how it is, I"
said Mr.. Dyer to Star-Bulletin re-
porter at the works this morning.
How Honolulu, out in the middle Of
the Pacific, can successfully compete
with their manufacturers of machin-
cry is a puzzle to them.
"The fact is that we are right In
the middle of the sugar industry, and
Hawaii is at the head of the process
sion in sugar manufacturing improve

progressive on account Of the condi-
tions of labor in Hawaii.

And to match this tremendous as

She was being chaperoned by her
aunt, but the chaperon didn't figure at
