Vaccination was not cure or pre-

Rep. Kamauoha was opposed to

atty of parents for non-vaccination

PRIvY COUNCIL.
Meeting to Consider Petitions from
ConvicCs for Communication.

There was a meeting of the Privy
Council this afternoon, to consider
the report OF committee on petit
tions of certain convicts for commu-
tation of sentences.
Henry Wramp, the plantation
luna of Koloa, Kauai, who NAL
treated Japanese labOrar so that
he died from his injuries, was con
victed of assault and was sentenced
by Judge Bickerton to imprisonment
at hard labor two years. The pri-
soner now petitions for a mitigation

The two Japanese, Masuda and
Otsuka, who we're convicted of muir
dering a fellow countryman at Olo-
walu, Maui, have had temporary re-
prieves of the death sentence grant
ed from time to time, the latest date
fixed being the first Monday in
December. Now Otsuka. who was
but an accessory, petitions for a
communication of the sentence to i'm
prisonment for life The cause of
the reprieves hitherto granted was
the confession of third Japanese.
who was also convicted of a murder
in hewing fellow-countryman down
with Ratchet in the sight of others,
that he had committed the murder
of which Masuda and Otsuka were
convicted. Investigation proved
that the confession was false.
1t is understood that the Privy
Council resolved to recommend Her
Majesty to grant the prayer of the
petitions. The evidence under which
Otsuka was convicted was circum-
stantial and hardly conclusive
enough on which to execute the ex-
treme penalty of the law.

A Police Officer Contracts a Broken
Nose from Six Chinese.


A native named Lii, police officer
at the Insane Asylum, was seriously
injured this morning by Cinnamon
near the Asylum. The trouble arose
over Lis little child, who had gone
over to the Chinaman's rice patch.
He was ordered away, but did not
go. A young Chinese boy then took
the child and put him into pile of
rice-bran, entirely covering him up.
The child getting out complained to
his father, who rushed over to find
out the cause of the outrage He
was attacked by six Chinese, includ-
ing the boy. In the scut1le he was
hit by All Kun with stout oaken
stick measuring about foot and a
half in length and three inches
thick. The blow landed on the
bridge of his nose, breaking it. The
tip was turned up, putting the nose
in crescent shape. The blood
spirited copiously from the damaged
organ. People had been attracted
by the noise and the Mongolians re-
tired. Lii was taken to the Asylum
Whtlo hiS III VI itS were dJltillltu u
Besides broken nose he was badly
bruised about the body, and his
voice is affected by the blow on his
nose.
All Kun and his five confederates
were arrested shortly after and
brought to the Station, where they

The BEST PLASTER. Dampen a
piece of flannel with Chamberlain's
Pain Balm and bind it on over the
seat of pain. 1t is better than any
plaster. When the lungs are sore
such an application on the chest
and another ON the back, between
the shoulder blades, will often pre-
vent pneumonia. There is nothing
SO good for lame back or pain in

always be cured in one night by APP
