Maui Divine Becomes EntansIed
With Ways that Are Worldly.

The recklessness displayed by Ger.
tain hackmen doing business in Ho
noluIu viii doubtless receive a de
cided check when due consideration
| is given TO the penalty received by
Hackman Rosa at the hands Of Judge
Wilcox Of the District Court yester.
day.
IN addition TO q cash fine Of sic
and costs, the license Of Rosa as q
hack driver was revoked. upon his
being found guilty Of needless driv-
ing. as well as being drunk while on
duty. and engaged in driving about
the streets Of the city.
High Sheriff Brown prosecuted the
case against Joe Rosa. a Portuguese
jehu. who admitted that on the day Of
his arrest he had been without food for
a long period, and in.lieu of nourish-
ment, had stopped in a saloon. and
taken a couple of drinks OF brandy
Rosa further confessed that the hev-
erage might have proven too strenu-
Gus for him. but he believed that
there were mitigating circumstances
even in the wildly exciting round of
existence of a hackman. After set
ting forth evidence against Rosa, the
prosecution recommended that the
license of the haekmen be taken away
from him. because of offense proven
against the defendant was far great
er than had he simply been caught at
needless driving.
The alertness of Deputy Sheriff
Chillingworth and several assistants
brought full-fedged okolehao still toI
ruin, and its proprietor to grief. early

Gated in the McCully tract on the ex
tension of Young street. At the time
the place was visited by the officers
the Chinese distiller was busily en-
gagged in the manufaCtu of the in
toxicant. and a sudden descent upon
the still resulted in catching the Ce-
lestial right in the act He was placed
under arrest and brought to the sta
ton. where he gave his name as All
How. When arraigned to answer to-
a charge of illicit distilling, the pris-
oner asked for a continuance which
was given until today.

late hour Saturday night while indulg
ing in a game of chuck luck at Iwi
lei, were put through the justice mill

A young girl under the school age,
was brought before the court in or

with the hope that studious habits
might thereby be instilled into the
youthful mind The girl, Lillian by
name. had totally disregarded paren-
tai admonition. and refused to attend
school Fearing trouble in the future
if check was not put upon habits Of

fined 500 and costs on the charge Of
adultery. Defendant pleaded not
guilty to the charge some days ago.
but his case was postponed several
times until its final disposition yes
terday. The testimony showed that
the defendant had for some time
maintained unlawful relations with a
sister-in-law The relative claimed
that the minister had greatly pestered
her with his dishonorable attentions.
It was alleged that from Maui the
scene of his wickedness was transfer
red to Honolulu. bringing the woman
here. and establishing her in lodg-
ing house. The plea for clemency upon
the part Of Attorney Kaulukou was
unavailing.

animals. was fined SIS and costs. His
case was a fragrant one. and the
treatment Of his horse aroused the
humane sentiments of q large num-
Der of people who were present and
witnessed the deed.

the docket as a result of a Saturday |
night season of hilarity. They re-
