FILES Of OLD
HAWAII COURT
RECORDS MADE

Robert C. Lydecker, superintendent
Of the territorial public archives, has
just completed his filing of old court
records which he gathered recently in
a trip over the island of Hawaii. The
records have been placed in new
book racks which recently arrived,
and which have been set up in the
second story Of the archives building.
Records going back to the years
1876 and 1S47 are among those gather
ed by the superintendent when he
made his rounds of the Hilo and Mai
lua districts on the Big Island.
The papers at Kailua were taken
there in the Old days when the Kai-
lua or third circuit was established,
being moved over from Hilo. Mr..
Lydecker plans to go to Lihue next
month to gather up similar records
from the island of Kauai.
He said this morning that the equip
ment at the archives has been practi-
cally completed with the setting up
of the new steel book cases, only two
more being needed to fill out the
space in the big room.

STRONG PLAYS
ARE AT NATIONAL

Stronger than any sermon, holding
the spectator with its splendor and
beauty, filling him with infinite pity
for the innocent girl who must pay
in utter grief and degradation for her
parents folly, 1.-THE Sins of the Moth
ers," now appearing on the screen at
the National theater, spells terrible
lesson to fathers and mothers.
Incidentally, the emotional acting Of
pretty little Anita Stewart in the part
of the unfortunate heroine is worthy
of Mary Pickford. She has unequaled
opporttlnitylfor emotional and drama
tic expression and makes full use Of
it. The girl, with wide, horror-strick-
en- eyes that see the pit yawning be-
fore her, is dragged relentlessly into
it by a power greater than her will, the
terrible mania for gambling, inherit
ed from her parents. She knows she
is on the DOWN. ard path and fights
frantieally against it, but in vain.
Earle Williams, in the role of her
strong husband, also is a heroic fig
ure, to be admired and loved.
Just The opposite, or perhaps by way
of relief from it's tensity, is the other
film, three reels showing Midnight
at Maxim's," with all it's chorus girls
and celebrated dancers, the real
Broadway beauties over whom the
New York spendthrift raves. This is
a true scene filmed in one of Gotham's
restaurants, famed for its night life
and gaYety.
Coming either tomorrow or Thurs
day is The Rosary" adaptation of the
big stage drama of that name, with
kathlyn Williams, Charles Clary and
Wheeler Oakman in the leading roles
and a strong supporting cast.

Timber Men Visits Highland

]. II. Gregg, who has negotiated
many timber sales in Bath and
Highland, has been in the county
since last week. He was accom-
panied by a number of gentlemen,
said to be interested in the hold
ings of the Highland Lumber Co.,
a large area extending from Bath
county up the Bullpasture and in
Guiding lands north of the turnpike.
We have not heard as to the
mission of the group of timber men
or the result. Mr.. Gregg giving out
nothing in answer to the question
as to whether he had any state
ment of interest to make.
1t has always been understood
that the sale of this valuable tim
Der would lead to the building OF a
road, either temporary or perma-
nent, over which to haul it to
market, and for this ceason the
presence of prospective purchasers
naturally arouses interest. This
section of Virginia, through Mr..
Grogg's operations, is getting a
good deal of advertising, at least.
JohnJ. Hiner, who accompanied
the party here, is still in Monterey.

Hunting Season On

The game bird that lives to see
December first in Highland will be
entitled to cromo or some mark
of distinction. Perhaps in nc
previous year has there been any
thing like the in rush of hunters,
more than thirty cars crossing the
Augusta Highland line on Sun ay
evening, to say nothing of those
that preceded and followed. Some
of these hunters came from New
Jersey and others as far away as
Eastern Virginia. 1t goes without
saying that the birds are going tc
live hard with all these crack
marksmen on their trail. One
visitor was said to have bagged g
half dozen wild turkeys on Satur-
day.
1t looks very much like the law
designed to protect" game, woulc
prove failure for Highland, unless
the supervisors shorten the open
season or regulate the season so as
to have two hunting days a week.
