CHILD BARRED FROM
 ACTING AT THEATRE

Little Rock, May l6.-For the first
 time in the history of the state, the
 child labor law is being applied to the state. The law is very explicit on the subject, but no occasion has arisen heretofore to enforce it. Yes terday the attention of Labor Com missioner Clary was called to the fact that nine-year child was being regularly employed this week in one of the acts at the Majestic theatre. The manager was notified that it was in violation of the law and must be stopped. The manager agreed to do so.
 The law says that mo child under sixteen years shall be employed upon the state of any theatre or con- cert hall, or in connection with any theatrical performance or other ex- hibition or show, nor shall any such child be employed who has not pass ed four yearly grades in the public schools or equivalent thereof"

INVESTORS WANT
 ARKANSAS BANDS

Little Rock, May 16.-John H Page, commissioner of agriculture has received an inquiry from parties in the north who desire to invest $20O,000 to S25O,OOO in Arkansas wild lands, either timbered or cut. over. No objection is made to land that is in the overflow district ol land that requires drainage, but il must be fertile, productive and bot. tom land.
 Another inquiry came from Chi cago man for 5000 acres of cut-over or prairie land for grazing purposes, to be comparatively level, free from rocks, and of such character as to grow grass abundantly. Still another inquiry comes from the east from a party who desires to secure from 5O,OO0 to 100000 acres of cut-over land suitable for agricultural pur- poses, to be colonized by foreign inn migrants. MT. Page is in correspond ence with these persons, and invites information from owners who have such tracts to offer.

SIGNAL CORPS COMPANY
WILL GET EQUIPMENT
FOLLOWING INSPECTION

With an order jul y received from
the war department and announced to-
day at National Guard headquarters,
provision Is made whereby the sigma.
Corps Company. under command of
Capt R. L. Noggle. will get its equip
ment of field apparatus following the
regular inspection, which will be held
In short time.
According to the orders. the COM
handing general of the Hawaiian de-
partment will detail an officer Of the
army signal corps to carry out this
inspection. and directly this certain
unalloted portions of funds In the
army will be turned over to the pur-
chase of equipment for the militia
corps. The allotment will be made
about July I.
As the signal company was given
permanent quarters in the old armory
a few. days ago for carrying on It's
work, this second piece of good news
has set officers and men rejoicing.
1t was planned originally to organ
ize what is known as type D COM

JUDGMENT REVERSED TN
HALAMA VS.. HALAMA AND
SUIT REMANDED TO COURT

In decision handed down today
the supreme court reverses the judg-
ment of T. B. Ss1art, third Judge Of
the circuit court. and remands the
cause TO him for further proceedings
in the case Of s. Halama against Kali
Halama. The plaintiff was the appel
liant in the case.
The decision of the supreme court
is In two parts, one of which declares
that 1T is resersible error for circuit
Judge, sitting in equity, to dismiss
plaintiffs bill during the cross-exam-
ination of witness for the defendant,
thereby preventing further cross-exam-
ination of such witness. The second
part declares that 1t is 'preiudicial er-
ror to consider as evidence an entry
In book shown by defendant to a
witness for plaintiff on cross-examina.

puted, where such book is not identi.
fled and introduced in evidence"
Whether or not s. Halama was a
minor when he signed Quitclaim
deed for his interest in certain lands
in Maui is one of the questions
brought up in the circuit court trial,
the family Bible, or what was alleged
to be, being introduced as testimony.

Attorneys for Prosecution and
Defense Hold Conference
and Are Agreed

Withdrawing the plea of mot
guilty." previously made In each of
four cases wherein he was charged
with illegal recruiting of laborers from
the territory, o. A. Steven this morn
ing interposed the plea of guilty.
The plea came following an hours
conference between attorneys for both
sides, in which 1t was finally agreed
that II Steven should acknowledge
guilt in the four cases against him
the prosecution would be satisfied
with a fine of 800 for one case and
81 each for the others.
Attorney w. 4. Garden stated these
grounds for the prosecution this morn
ing following the conference, being
told by Judge Stuart that final dcci-
sion on the case would be given IT,
morrow morning, but that he would
probably decide as requested"
At the request of the court the
agreement was put in writing ard
signed BY the attorneys on both sides,
as well as by Steven. The agreement
says In part:
Defendant Is to withdraw his plea
of not guilty heretofore interposed In
each of the cases above described and
plead guilty in each case thereof.
In case No. 6295, being the case
now on trial, fine of 500 is to be
imposed; In each of the other cases, to
wit, case 1924, case 1896 and case
6297, fine Of 81 is to be imposed
upon the defendant.
For your information the under
signed further state that 1t is under
stood that no other charges of any
kind are to be brought against de-
fendant, o. A. Steven, for and on ac-
count Of any matters and things done
by him down to the present day, pre-.
vided that defendant o. A. Steven
does not in the future violate the pro
visions of section 2016 to 2024 and
section 1901 of the Revised Laws If
Hawaii, 1915.
I'VE trust that the above suggestion
win meet with your honor's aI-
proyal."
Steyent who sat in the corridor dur
ing the time that the attorneys were
the agreement, suffered an
other stroke this morning similar to
that which he received on Saturday
afternoon. His attorney, c. H. Nc
Bride, picked him up from the floor
and he was able to walk again in a
short while
i will be back in court at 10 o'clock

Judge, through 1t is supposed that he
