with prominent citizens.

regarding the sentence.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1897-12-20

Mr.. Robertson replied that he OBJ
ijected to the imposing of death SEN
tences upon his clients for the reason
that the court had no authority TO
suspend sentence from one term and
impose sentence at special term.
Attorney w. a. Kinney, represent
ing the government, stated that this
point had come up previously and
been determined by the court.
Judge Perry announced that in his
opinion it was within the province of
the court to impose the sentence at Il
special term where the defendants had
been convicted at the regular term of
court.
Attorney Robertson noted an excep-

BIG MACHINE AT KAHUKU GIVES
ENTIRE SATISFACTION.
Guaranteed Capacity Greatlyq Exceed
ed-Plenty of Water Now-Four
New Pumps Ordered.

The official test of the big triple eX
pansion pumping engine recently in
stalled at Kahuku plantation by the
Worthington Company, was made last
Saturday, with very satisfactory re-
suits. The pump has been in opera
tion for nearly two months, but owing
to the absence of the plantation own
ers, had never been tried out before.
The test was witnessed by Alexander
Young, c. Bolte and Archibald Young,
representing the plantation, and G.
\. johnson. c. S. Holloway and II. G..
Van Ness looked after the interests
of the Worthington Company.
The engine was first tried under Il
head of $50 feet and developed duty
of 115,000,000 gallons, exceeding the
guarantee to considerable extent
This duty. figured on a coal basis.
would show a consumption of 1.6
pounds of coal per horse power per
hour. The capacity at this head was
% per cent in excess of contract re-
quirements. which called for 5.0O0.-
600 gallons per "a hours. Later IN
the engine was run against a lower
head. when its capacity reached near
~ 12,00O,0OO gallons. Throughout the
trial the engine worked to the entire
satisfaction Of all concerned.
Kahuku plantation now has all the
water it can make use of. The new
pumps can irrigate 1900 acres if nee
essary, although they are now only
called upon to supply water for $50
acres. All of the available land is he
ing prepared for cultivation, and it
looks very much as if Kahullu will
soon rank among the heaviest of pro-
ducers.
The new engine designed and built
by the Worthington Company is in op-
GRAFTON at Lahaina, where is it Civ

ers of the plantation are so well pleas

TO PEOPLE OF MODERATE MEANS.

The majority of people who buy
goods and the majority who buy pres
ents for Christmas are persons of
moderate means, who have to look
closely to their expenses. This being

At the old established house of \. S.
Sachs can he found this season IA
handsome variety of just this class Of
goods.
Such as Irish point squares and
scarfs, with tides to match; silk hose.
real lace handkerchiefs. embroidered
handkerchiefs. latest novelties in fine
neckwear, ladies parasols, mems silk
umbrellas, and thousand other use
full articles. The point we would call
attention to is that his prices remain
the same, no extras put on for the
holidays. The best proof that the
goods and prices are right is the con
stant crowd of buyers which throng
his store. The millinery department
is a leading feature. and for ribbons
n. S. Sachs is unquestionably the
place to go.

This week we want to say a
few words about garden hose.
For months we have been on
the look out for something in

body, something that will not

You can drag it around over
coral, sand or sharp flint with

makes it superior to all other
hose made. In a word the Red
