Lieutenant David Alexander Scott, U.

eral months ago, but which had been
held secret except from the bride IS

Mrs. Scott wanted to join her hus.
band there the announcement of the
marriage was made.
The first meeting of Lieutenant Scott
and Mrs. Roberts took place 1s months
ago on board the Glacier, where Mrs
Roberts had been invited to musical
entertainment. On November 81 OF
last year the two slipped off quietly
to Redwood City and were married
by Rev. Charles c. Kirkland of the
Congregational Church. Mrs. Roberts
father was informed of the marriage
but no other relatives or friends were
taken into the confidence of the couple
Lieutenant SCOTS home is in Kings
ton, N. T., where his mother and some
younger sisters and brothers live. He

and it was decided to break the news
when he left, instead of waiting until
June, as had been intended.
The Glacier arrived from San Fran
cisco early yesterday morning after an
exceedingly rough trip during which
time some propeller blades which are
being taken out to the Colorado,

.AV|ATORs MAY FLY
TO JAPAN SHORE

If it should prove possible to make
arrangements with the japanese gov
eminent by wireless, it is likely that
Aviators Atwater or Young will fly
from the deck of the Mongolia to the
shore in Yokohama, and land in the
public gardens. Both these aviators
are on board the Mongolia with their
wives to make series of flights in
the Orient, and the idea of landing ON
Japan soil by the air route appeals to
them both.
In the holds of the Mongolia are two
biplanes one of which will be set up
for the flight. 1t is not thought they
would attempt the flight until they
were inside the forts at the entrance
TO Yokohama harbor. Otherwise, even
if they had the permission of the gov
ernment, the soldiers at the forts
might take the airship for the advance
guard of an invading army and fire
upon it.

BARRACKS LOT
RETURNED WITH
STRING ON IT

Fulfilling the promise long made the
Territory, the federal government has
at last returned to the Territory the
+" Barracks Lot" fronting on Hotel
street opposite the capitol, as site
for an armory for the territorial
militia.
Word of this was received yesterday
by Governor Frear in certified copy
of an executive order signed by Presi.
dent Taft on March 81. There is, how.
ever, a string attached to the gift in
the form of proviso that the armory
must be commenced on the site within
twelve months. If this is not done,
the executive order, by its own pro.
vision, becomes imperative and the
land will be returned to the use of the
United States.
The slice handed back to the Ter
ritory has a frontage of 2s0.9 feet on
Miller street, 93.6 feet along Beretania
and 200 feet on Hotel. 1t is considered
more than ample for the armory for
which an appropriation was passed by
the last Legislature.

domestic breaches, guard the morals and
father the hayward progeny of Ka-

set on the tenements and shacks of the

ruler looked out over his domain and
had his doubts, for p. w. Rider has
temporarily abdicated and is off for the

the mission in charge of Martin dur
ing his absence.
The process of investing Johnny in
the robes of Office took place in the little
room on the second floor of the mission
building from which the benign auto.

kaako for the past six years or more.
As long as the matter of succession had
to do with the transfer of keys and
chattels and the routine of the mission
the new ruler was assured and con-
fdent, but when the "mayor" began
to dwell upon the exigencies of his of
