Wife Murderer Face Swathed
in Bandages to Cover Hide
Gus Wounds Now Healed.

Among the nineteen prisoners await.
ing trial for felonies, many of them
murder, at the county Jail, Manuel Fer
nandez Mascotto is moving like n
swathed mummy awaiting the time
when he will be hailed before the court
to tell why he shot his pretty young
wife in the Kalihi-uka school house,
eight months ago
Ills wound which he inflicted on him.
self two minutes after he killed his
wife, has healed so far as it ever will
but his face presents such CHASTITY as
pect that it is kept swathed in band
ages less it shock other prisoners in
the Jail, many of whom have commit
ted crimes that would express them as
hardened beyond such scruples.
Case Was Not on Calendar.
For some reason Mascotto s trial has
not even been placed on the calendar,
the prosecuting officers postponing the
moment when they must bring him into
court. For half year nothing was
heard of him except feeting mention,
when, few weeks ago, he was moved
from the Queen S Hospital to the coun-
ty jail His attorney is A. d. Lar
march. INC
Half of Mascotto's face is gone and
he is compelled to eat through a straw,
making a liquid diet his only possible
one. He attempted suicide by holding
a double barrel shotgun under his chin
and pulling the trigger He is a con
tinual complainant from toothache, al
though he has but one or two left, and
it is thought that these are incapable
of feeling. Aside from this he makes
but little effort to talk, feat that
would be impossible even should he try.
Jail Crowded to Capacity.
The county Jail yesterday almost
reached the limit of its absolute capa-
city and at the present time the pris-
oners are packed into the cells in a
manner that police, and Jail officials
would protest against if there was any
other place to put them. The report of
Jailor Asch to the sheriff yesterday
showed there are l4O prisoners on the
books, of whom nineteen are presumed
by law to be innocent. 1t is expected
that within comparatively a few
ask for an addition to the jail to bring
it up to the demands upon it.

Nothing but mere commonplace COM
mercial value went with the Chinese
banana claimants yesterday when the
first witnesses of this nationality testi-
fed before the banana court. The wit
uesses were able to come down to
"brass tacks,' as the saying goes, for
they actually deal in bananas and ap-
parently knew what they were talking
political value to the banana plants
they had destroyed by the board of
health in 1911, wherein they differed
greatly from the Hawaiian claimants,
who figured on all the way from one
to five dollars per plant, whether it
Yas small or large one and whether
there was fruit or not.
The banana judges got their first
insight into the commercial value of
bananas. Sing Soon Now stated the
Chinese bananas were worth in the
market from twenty-five to sixty cents
a bunch, according to the size. Apple
bananas are worth from forty to eighty
five cents. The Chinese proved good
witnesses yesterday ana there was no
hesitation about their testimony. They
had dates and facts at the finger tips

LET THE HEART DECIDE.

Dear Miss Fairfax:
have been going with man for
the past eight months, and he al
ways treated me nicely. But lately
his mother objected and kept her
son away from me for over
month, during which time became
acquainted with another man whom
my parents like, and who has seri-
Gus intentions.
But now ! get a letter from my
first friend asking to come and see
me. He claims he has fixed it all
up with his mother. who now is sat
isfied to have her son keep compa-
ny with me and consents to our
getting engaged My mother real
ly wants me to go with the second
man, and strongly objects to the
first one, but ] love him dearly and
can not give him up. @. S.
YOU love the first man and do no
love the second. Therefore, the frs
man is the one for you.
But, and consider this seriously, he i
not for you if both his mother and you
mother object Hadn't you better wal
till he has proven to their satisfaction
his right to win you?

In her wonderful stride The Whip

was still even and regular, though Of

The two detectives met Lord Beverley
near The Whip. The one in authority

whole demeanor showed that there was
no intention upon his part now of arrest
ing the jockey
My lord he said very humbly to Bev-

Beverley turned sternly upon his cous-
IN, Captain Sartoris, and Mrs. D'Aquila
where they stood in a corner of the pad
dock.
Then don't let them slip away" he
said. ARREST them at once"
The detectives seized Sartoris and Mrs.

Then unmindful of all the crowd, Bran
caster again put his arms about Lady
Diana and she about him.
"Now what's this?' demanded the Mar
quis of Beverley
Lady Diana raised her blue eyes to her

YOU ARE RIGHT.

Dear Miss Fairfax:
am young girl of past seventeen
years and have been chummy with a
chap of nearly twenty years. Now, he'd
like me to kiss him good night when he
sees me home, and | don't care to. OF
course. as 1t Is only kiddish affection
that exists between US, he thinks there
is no harm. He is a perfect gentleman
in every respect and he feels very sore.
MATILDA
Insist that-he wait few years and
earn the right to kiss you. The girl
who kisses all her boy friends has no
mark of favor left to show for the man
she really loves.

youth holds no such word as PA
tience"
The only advice, and, though it is old,
it holds good, is this: The most effec-
tive way for a girl to win the love of a
man IS to care nothing for it.
If she cares she must simulate in
difference.
Let this very old girl of % take no
further account of her years. For by
counting them and saying. Woes me!
No man loves met" with every year that
falls, she gives that year the effect on
her looks and disposition as if it were
ten years instead
Let her go West. There are more
men out there looking for wives; but
let her always remember, wherever she
is, North, East, South or West, that
man is such a wary creature owing to
so great pursuit, that he will fall in
love soonest with the girl who looks
right over his head
There is a peace and content and
happiness in being an old maid; but to
tell this to a girl of % is like talking
in a foreign language.

Many proverbs and terse sayings in

on the other hand, some that are gen.
orally supposed to be found in the Holy
Scriptures are not drawn thence. Most
people think that God tempers the

also give the same origin to "Cleanli-
ness is next to goodness" but neither
saying is found in the Bible.
The last quoted phrase is an old Eng
Iish proverb, and it is understood that
the proper and original wording of It
only was intended TO point out that if
we can not all be beautiful we can all
be clean. and that this is next pleasing
to the eyes of other people after good
liness,' "goodly' being an old English
word for handsome.
