THE willy NATIVE

PAIA, May 23.-Yesterday Hawaii
an named William Puniai of Omaopio,
Kula, was tried by Judge Copp of Ma
kawao and fined 800 and costs of court
for the larceny of a horse.
Some months ago a Makawao Japl-
nese named Kitche lost a horse and
offered s. reward for it's recovery
Several weeks since friend of Kitche,
seeing an animal on the premises of
William Puniai of Kula, took possess
sion telling the people there, Puniai be-
ing absent at the time, that the Ha-
waiian should as soon as POSSIBLE come
to Haleakala ranch, the home of Kit
che, and explain matters.
Two lays later Puniai put in an ap-
pearance with a paper in the Japanese
language stating that certain Horde
(of Pudnene) had given him the orse
to break in so that ii could be ridden
with a back cinch and had advanced
him (PuniaD one dollar on account
and on the 2lst of April would pay him
another dollar providing the horse on
that date would tolerate a back girth.
The Deputy Sheriff believed the Ha-
waiian's version of the affair and up
on the eth of April sent a policeman in
company with Puniai to Puunene to
deliver the horse and arrest the thief
Approaching a cane field at Pune
ne, Puniai leaving the policeman 1T
the road, entered the cane field and
bargained with an unintelligent look
ing jap, to buy the horse for a dollar.

Be Completed.


In the Senate yesterday when the
work of fixing the amounts of the sew

intending to seek to amend it by in
sorting the senate expense bill in it, so
that the House could not hold up one
as it had threatened to do, without
holding up the other. But he after
wards withdrew his motion on learning
that the house had passed the senate
bill.
