THE conviction of one of the muir
derers of the unfortunate Kapahee of
Puma will be received with especial salts
faction by the people OF southern Hawaii
The crime was peculiarly bold one.
The victim was schoolmaster at Hale
puaa, Puma, and was also the local con-
stable. He had been visiting Captain
Eldarts, had had his breakfast at the
captains house, and had then ridden off,
The mmderers were lying in wait and
not quarter of mile from the house,
in the open road, dragged this poor
old man from his horse, muir
dered him and hiding the body
in the thick scrub, within twenty yards
of the road, quietly went off to their
usual avocations. People passed and re-
passed during the day, but the scrub
kept its secret well. In the night the
scoundrels returned, and placing the
body on jackass carried it to crack in
the lava, three miles away, and there
hid it under heap of stones. The prin
cipal in the transaction cheated the gal
lows by taking poison on board the
steamer w. G. Hall. The man who
now lies under sentence of death was
the active assistant. The murder was a
peculiarly cold blooded one, thoroughly
deliberate in its carrying out and with
out the slightest excuse of hot bluoded
passion. The horror this crime sent
through the people of Kau, Puma and
South Hilo is very little realized by the
people living in Honolulu. 1t came on
top of series of mysterious crimes com
mitted in the Hilo district, which the
sheriff is still investigating, and for
which it is to be hoped that the perpe-
traitors may yet pay the penalty. Crimes
OF violence have, fortunately, not been
very frequent in our favored isles and it
is to be hoped that this outbreak of
murder which has taken place in Ha-
waii recently may not find limitations in
other parts of the Islands. In a small
country like this the police ought to have
no difficulty in bringing crimes home to
the perpetrators and an answering JUS
tice being melted out to the criminals
will make men think twice before they
put their own necks in moose. 1t is
one thing to wreak your vengeance upon
your foe, it is quite another thing when
wreaking your vengeance results in the
law taking vengeance on you. Hanging
may not prevent murder, but it acts as a |
very excellent deterrent on a large num-

MONDAY, DECEMBER 8, 1888.

FROM the tone of WEAKNESS and dis
satisfaction which pervades the Bulle-
tins editorial headed " Not All Bad" We
conclude that the editor has been look
ing through the back files of his own
paper. 1t is right there that the senti-
ments he complains of have found, for
many months past, constant, and APP
parently congenial home. eff a man
goes to church or makes a profession of
religion, he is a hypocrite." If he
does good deed, and there is no deny
ing it, it is from selfish motive. Ii he
speaks or writes in defense of a public
servant, it is because he is paid for it. ="
These are precisely the conclusions
which any one might come to, who had
read the Bulletin constantly, and allowed
himself to be influenced thereby. Just
such rubbishy stuff as it now complains
OF, in quantity immense, in quality in
tense, has formed large portion of the
contents of its own columns. We do
not wonder that whoever is responsible
for the paper is getting Disguised. Other
people have been for some time past.

navy. During his present stay in Homo

A Girl with a Smoking Gun.

While at Chewela recently met
Nancy Mckenzie, noted half-breed
woman, who is known throughout the
far northwest from Montana to Puget
Sound. She is a arge-framed, tall
woman, about 60 years of age, who
takes more after her Indian mother
than her Scotch father, who. as an en-
listed man in the service of the Hud
son Bay company, left his home in
the Orkney Islands about 70 years
ago and sought wealth and adventure
in the untrodden and unknown re-
gions of the northwest.
was told a little story concerning
her by physician who lives near by.
He said that few days before he was
out in the swamp back of his house
hunting pheasants, when he heard the
sharp crack of rifle near at hand.
Thinking it was some of his neigh
borS who had scared up deer in the
swamp, he hastened TO the spot, and
found Nancy Mckenzie with smok-
ing gun in her hand peering toward
the roots of an upturned fir tree. On
asking her what she had shot, she re-
piled in French-for she only speaks
Indian and French-that she had
shot bear standing against the root
of the tree, and was not certain
whether or not she had killed him.
The doctor admitted that his knees
smote together little when he look
ed in the direction indicated and saw
a great shaggy object rolling about on
the ground. Nancy said that she was
out of ammunition, and asked him to
give bruin parting shot. The doctor
was frank man, and he again admit
ed that he shot and that the bear died,
but on examination it was found that
he had not touched hair.-Birming-
ham Herald.

piled, "the beautiful Miss Smith, to
whom you refer, is cousin of mine.

Had Been There.

The congregation of a church at
Elk Rock were much shocked upon
learning that their preacher had de-
parted under most discreditable cir
cumstances. On the following Sum
day it seemed to be the aim of nearly
every one to hush up the scandal, and
under great constraint, many uninter-
esting conversations were held, mere
ly to prove that the members of the
church could rise above sensational
gossip. Just before the services we're
closed, Brother Elijah p. Brookrod
arose and said:
Brethren and sisters, since we last
met in this house something which
seems to have cast a gloom over this
congregation has occurred. We were
all much attached to our minister f.;
in fact, we loved him, and | now pro-
pose that we offer up a prayer for the
wanderer."
A sensational wave swept over the
audience. Another brother arose and
turning'to Elijah p. Brookrod, said !:
81 am astonished that you should
desire this congregation to pray for
our erring minister-you above all
others"
"Why ?"
Because he ran away with your
wife,"
"Yes, know" Elijah replied, land
that is the reason why | think that he
will need our prayers. Arkansas
