WASHINGTON, d. c.. Nov. 20.-
Some three years hence. IL unexpect-
ed complications and delays do not
arise, the fishing laws OF Hawaii may
be eiucidated by the Supreme Court
OF the United States. Members of
that tribunal hold that at the present
rate Of progress conclusion should
be reached In less time. The fact re-
mains that the docket is approximate
" three years behind the uptc-date
point.
The case In any event has been
docketed and numbered. II Is q suit
brought to test the constitutionality
|of Hawaiian laws forbidding the taxi
ing OF FISH with seines. Eight Japa-
nese claiming to be residents of the
territory appear as the compliments.
The contention is advanced by
counsel for the japanese that Cong
ress reserved to itself the right to
regulate the taking Of sea fish within
the territorial limits Of Hawaii and
that the territorial government is
without power to pass such regula-
lions. The Hawaiian supreme court
held that the local government could
act until Congress enacted regula-
|tions.
When the case approaches the Pc
Rod when fits turn viii come on the
docket. due notice win be given by
the supreme court and q date set on
which oral arguments win be heard.
Until that time arrives. the suit will
remain dormant.

TO FIGHT NOXIOUS WEEDS
Question Of Extinction of the Scourgo

mic at Madison.

Masison.-The spread of noxious
weeds, such as the Canada thistle and

Gus tax upon farmers in certain parts
of the state that experts in the Wis

the bed of sick person, the ticking
will not then disturb him, but the
time piece may be easily reached.
Keep a roll of laundered white goods
to patch corset covers and lingerie
waist, a new piece will shrink and
pucker.
Slip shoes into old stocking legs
when packing the trunk, using white
for the white shoes, tan for the tan
and black for the black shoes. They
can be easily seen and will be kept
from iniuring anything they touch
When sIicing tomatoes use knife
with saw teeth as they may be cut
better and thinner.
When bottling ketchup or fruit
juices, put the corks into boiling water
and boil for twenty minutes, they will
be plabe and easily inserted into the
bottles.
Keep a roll of paper toweling in the
kitchen which is absorbent and II
grease is spilled use the paper instead
of cloth to wipe it up. The paper
makes a good article to wipe out
plates before putting them into the
dish water.

Koehler, his widow, was arrested and

woman, who is the mother of fourteen
children, had declared she could not
find him.
The arrest was caused by the re
peated statements of the woman that
her husband had been struck by light
ming and the fact that the body was
found in plain view so near the home.
The woman, assisted by one of her
sons, put up stubborn resistance
when the sheriff arrived with his war
rant and she was taken to the Jail
with difficulty. According to the testi-
mony OF two physicians, Koehler died
as a result of blow on the head.

20 Rare Sir William"

The most troubled tenure of the
British laureateship was Sir William
Davenant's. His appointment in sue
cession to Ben Jonson was resented
by Thomas May, who considered his
own claims superior; and, according
to Clarendon, this was the reason why
May threw himself vigorously into the
Parliamentary cause. For a time May
had the better of It, 1t was he who
was buried in the poets corner, while
Davenant got into grave trouble as
fighting royalist, and only Milton s
intercession saved his head But the
restoration brought about its revenge.
Mays body was expelled and Dave
nants placed in the vacated tomb. I'm
fortunately, to the regret OF Anthony
Wood, the wreath was forgot that
should have been put on the coffin;
and posterity smiled at the imitation
on his grave of Ben Jonson's epitaph
20 rare Sir William Davenant."
