SERVING SENTENCE HERE.
Chester Doyle, of the police depart
ment, brought to Honolulu from Maui
on the kinau. japanese named Taxi
ochi, of Wailuku, who recently receiv-
ed sentence of ten years at the hands
of Judge kalua for attempting to mur-
der his divorced wife, Ichi. The Jap
anese showed considerable ingenuity
IN making his arrangements to send
his wife to eternity, and only through
an accident was the plot discovered
In some manner or other Takiochi
managed to place in the stove belong
ing to his wife sixty pounds of dyna
mite. together with fuses, so that when
lchi lighted fire therein an explosion
would follow. AS Ichi cooked for fifty
or sixty japanese who lived in the
house, the probabilities are that not
only Ichi, but her boarders. would have
been blown to atoms. The woman dis.
covered the nice arrangement of eX.
plosives, reported the matter to the DO.
lice, and the ex-husband was arrested
by Doyle. Takiochi will serve out his
sentence in Oahu Prison.
