WIFE SUED FOR DIVORCE.
RESENTED TERM GERMAN

That her husband twitted her In
front of friends because some of her
ancestors were Germans is one of the
complaints voiced by Mrs. Alice E.
Marshall in a cross-libel for divorce
which she has filed against her hus-
band, George Marshall. The Mar.
shall divorce case is now on trial in
Circuit Judge Heen's court.
According to Mrs. Marshall's state
ment of facts her great-grandparents
were Germans, and she alleges that,
by reason of this fact, her husband
often referred to her as a German,
which term the hbellee always con-
sidered most insulting" declares Mrs.
Marshall

OIL RESERVES
OPENED UP IS
CABLED RUMOR
If True Would Mean Release Of
Millions Held in Escrow;
Oil Stock Jumps

That the United States government
has opened up the reserve oil lands
for private development is the rumor
which has been in circulation in San
Francisco financial circles for the
past two days and the receipt of that
rumor by cable here this morning
caused Honolulu Consolidated Oil
stock to jump from $40 a share.
yesterdays closing price, to $40
with a prospect of further increase.
Should the report that the govern
ment has thrown open the oil reserve
lands prove true several million dol
lars now held in escrow in New York
pending the settlement of the litiga
ton over the land in question, will be
divided among the shareholders. This
money comprises the payment made
by the Standard Oil Company for the
oil supplied it by the Honolulu Con-
solidated Oil Company from the lat
ter's wells which are now in opera
ton. These we'll are on land which
during the administration Of Presi-
dent Taft the government attempted
to make into federal reserve areas
after private companies had begun
development.
Bidding on the local exchange was
brisk this morning. The sales in Ho.
nolulu oil recorded we're as follows:
1900 at S440; 2400 at $4.45; IS at
$3.50 and 100 at $3.50, making a total
of 1915 shares to change hands.
The cable received by a local brok
er from San Francisco this morning
relative to Honolulu oil was as fol
lows: 80.
Talk about high dividends-rumoi
that government has thrown open oil
rnserye lands"

In a ringing speech filled with pa
triotism Rev. Albert W. Palmer, pas
tor Of the Central Union church, told
the workers of the Y. w c. A. the ne
cessitS of waging an active campaign
for funds for war work.
Don't go TO the businessmen Of the
city in an apologize manner when
you ask them to contribute to the war
fund for the Y. W. c. A." said Rev,
Palmer. This work is just as impor
tant as the work Of the Y. NJ. c. A. or
any other organization. The people CT
America are interested in the welfare
Of their soldier boys and the fund OF
$50,000,OGO raised by the Y. NJ. c. A
may be cited as an instance Of the sup
port that the people of the nation ara
giving to the boys at the front.
AT Camp Lewis | had the pleasure
OF finding out what the Y. W. c.. A.
was doing for the soldier boys. There
they have a hostess house, where the
mothers, daughters and sweethearts
may come to visit the enlisted men. a
clean, honey place is provided
The soldier boy has no home. And
this is handicap to him in his fight
for a cleaner life. When his work for
the day is done he does not find the in.
fluences of home life, and when his
salary Is paid, he does not have to
figure out whether to pay the butcher
or the grocer. 1t is a condition which
must be met, and the Y. W. C. A. is
doing its part in making the life of
the soldier a better one" he con-
cluded.
Mrs. F. J. Lowrey remarked that
the present campaign was the biggest
thing Of it's kind that had ever been
launched in Honolulu. She urged that
the campaigners do not suggest small
sums to any one.
Miss Martha Chickering pointed out
the need for more room for class work.
She said that two new rooms would
give the association space to carry
out many Of the problems which must
be faced.
