q woman on trial charged with murder
in the first degree for the brutal kill
ing Of fellow countryman.
The woman is Tagog, Marsiana

of yesterday and will so on today and
possibly tomorrow.
Defendants Confess
Both Of the defendants have con
fessed 10 their share in the killing Of
Cenda, each blsmes the other, yet there
Is difference. In the courtroom Cobalt
betrays not the slightest emotion, but
sits stolid and quiet watching the wit
nesses. Never. Is he seen CHANGING at
the woman beside him on trial for her
life. She might be already dead for
all he seems TO care. Yet he Is ac-
cused of killing this man for her sake.
But Marciana shows sparks Of hui
man emotion. She, too, sits silent and
stolfd most of the time as the story
Of death unravels, But now and again
she glances at Santiago with strange
look in her eyes. Together they know,
but he shows no sign; and she--what
is her thoughts
A sordid Story
The story is sordid one. On October

without showing any trace of weevil.
This is the reason the local dealers
prefer the mainland beans TO those
grown in the Islands, but there is not
one of them that would not prefer to
buy homegrown beans Of the same
varieties which were properly cured and
free from weevil.
Another matter which should have
the attention of the bean growers is
the dirty condition in which they are
often sent to market. More than 30
per cont of the beans coming TO the
division are covered with film Of dirt,
either due to carelessness in threshing
Or TO shipping in bags that are dirty.
Even at the present high cost of new
bags, il pays to use them.
This year has been the most pros
porous ever enjoyed by the, bean farmer
of Kula, and by using Improved meth,

money can be made from this crop.
New Irish potatoes are in demand.
Now is the time for producers TO ship.

After the Geier was seized by the
naval authorities, an examination was
made. 1t was found that her boilers
we're ruined by the white,hot fire that

that the engine room was completely
wrecked. Hammers had been used on

Authorities Pooled
Search of the vessel disclosed three.

back of the smokestack and ruined by

as evidence of the fact that the dis
armament of the cruiser had not been

mand. ~
There were explosives stored aboard

cation Of the fire was such that they
did not explode, but there was no, evil

tentionally taken any precautions to
prevent an explosion that might have
killed or injured many innocent people.
Notwithstanding the sensational ma

Hang Up the Stockings.

Author Of The Riddle Of Personality" "ps,

Copyright, 1917. by the Associated Newspapers ,
Don't forget the chiIdren's stockings
tonight. Hang them up and put in
them goodies, trinkets and little play
things. so that the youngsters can start
Christmas day in the spirit of glad
surprise.
Tomorrow, remember, is of all days In
the year the children's day Nothing
that may add to their enjoyment OF the
day should be overlooked.
And the Joy Of rummaging through a
stocking that Santa Claus has filed is
something every child should know.
Many children nowadays do not know
it. Parents for some reason have be-
come Increasingly forgetful of the
good old-fashioned custom of letting
the children hang up long stockings on
the rnantelpiece Christmas Eve.
Perhaps the passing OF the custom IL
due to the growing tendency to disillu-
sionize children regarding the myths Of
Christmas time.
Perhaps 1t is due to a feeling that in
our ornate and highly civilized age tho
stocking custom is too crude and ple-
beian to be tolerated.
Whatever the reason. II Is far from
being the universal custom 1t once was.
/, for one, deeply regret this.
No matter how old may live to be,
can never forget the eager. Joyous
