A Gard From Birbs,

Editor Advertiser: see by Satur-
days Bulletin that the ebony exile from
Tammany Hall lays the blame of the
rough house at the Camp last Friday
on myself and others of the Vida fac
,tion; while the truth of the matter is
that he started the brawl himself be-
ing ably seconded by Judas Clark
1t has been one of the favorite tricks
of that professional disturber of the
peace to start row and when he got
the worst of 1t to place the blame on
other peoples shoulders but the intel
ligent people of this Territory, well
know, who to believe in this case as
was proven by the heavy vote that
was cast for the Henry-Vida ticket in
the primaries.
The statement that the Vida faction
caused row at the Camp meeting is
a lie manufactured out of whole cloth
and should not be believed by any-

FROG LEGS FOR
SAN FRANCISCO

The frog industry of Hilo has risen
to the dignity of an export trade. The
Nevadan, which cleared from Hilo on
Wednesday last, has on her cargo list
the following entry, over and above
some $4,000 bags of sugar and seven
teen punches of bananas. Five hun
bred frogs"
The batrachians are supposedly alive
and are destined for the San Fran
cisco market where it is hoped they
will be appreciated by Californian
epicures with the result that Hawai-
ian Frogs legs" will soon be an i'm
portant item on all coast menus that
aspire to be up to date.
In the lack of more definite informa-
ton the frogs are probably from the
newly established grenouillerie of Mr.
Wise. This is not the first shipment
of Hilo nightingales and the variety is
said to stand the trip excellently, their
cheerful chorus reminding many a
fo'castle hand of early days down on
the farm"

WAS AN ACT
OF INSANITY

A coroners inquest resulting in a
verdict of Suicide while temporarily
insane" was held yesterday on the
body of Charles F.. Ali, the young
Chinaman who shot himself with a
borrowed revolver on Saturday even
ing last.
1t was thought that some facts. re-
ceased in China, owing to his connec-
ton with the local reform society and
which it was believed led to Ahi's en-
forced return from his mother coun-
try would be brought out at the in
quest but nothing definite proved to be
Forthcoming.
Suon Sin Leon. friend and fellow
boarder of the deceased, at his board
ing house on Vineyard street. testified
to his lending Ahi his revolver about
week ago for the latter to try He,
with another Chinaman, testified also
to hearing the shot and finding the
body of Ali on the stairs. Medical
testimony showed the wound to be
self-infiicted with fatal precision, en-
tering the brain through the roof of
the mouth.
The jury consisted of the following:
William savidge. Samuel Johnson, Dr.
r. A Yorba, James Bicknell, Ed.
Duvauchele and Stephen Gumpher.
Ahi. once a lawyers clerk, was well
educated and comparatively well off.
1t was his intention to have entered
a college in China. His friends claim
that political trouble forced his return
though his own statement was to the
effect that he returned to insure his
registration being perfect.

HAD A VERY
CLOSE SHAVE
Man Buried Seven
Minutes in
Coal.

An italian coal passer had q narrow
escape from death and furnished
; novel incident for story mongers OF
the last trip of the Alaskan to tn,
Coast. He was absorbed by the run
of coal in a coal bunker and arrived
alive after a seven-minute passage
through some forty feet of shifting
coal.
1T was few days after leaving
Coronel," says First Mate Curtis, who
spun the yarn, when the Dago hap
oened to slip and fall into the coal
bunker. The coal we had aboard was
much like Welsh coal in it's free run
ming qualities and dropping into it, is
good deal like getting into quick
sand.
"The Dago was UP to his neck in the
quickly shifting coal before he yelled
for help. There was about seventeen
hundred tons in that bunker and he
had some thirty-five feet of coal I'M
derneath him.
HE was down in a sort of a we'll
you may understand. with the coal
forming the loose sides of the we'll and
the rescue work was risky. Presently
the sides started to slip and the rescue
party had to get out for their own lives
The last we saw of the Dago was his
finger tips.
Then we got all hands we could and
they started in the fire room shovelling
like mad. They got out about twen-
ty-five tons in something under six
minutes. Captain Nicholson had got
the time when we lodged the first
avalanche and the Dago had been in
there seven minutes. OF course we
gave him up for dead. Then we saw
his feet coming into the fire room with
the run of coal. We got him out, gave
him a drink of whiskey and in a few
minutes he was passing coal once
more.
''It's mystery how he lived, but he
got right in the run of the coal to the
fire room and I supposed that saved
him. He came UP considerably aft Of
where he went down, starting in the
bunker and arriving in the fire room.
HE was quite a hero in San Fran
cisco and had his picture in the pa
pers, but he doesn't seem to think he
went through any thing very Won
1erful now"

ELLIS HEIRS MUST PAY
FOR SUMNER CASE ADVICE

J mony, Mr.. Watson moved for n non
suit on two grounds. First, that II
was not alleged and had not been prov
ed that the plaintiffs were attorneys,
regularly licensed to practice law, or
that they had complied with the Ter
ritorial laws. Second. that there was
no proof that Dunno and Breckons
were co-partners, and that they had
a right to sue as such. He commended
that there was a misjoinder of parties
and consequently he was entitled to a
non-suit. Mr.. Dunno did not argue the
case, and Judge Dickey promptly de-
MED the motion.
THE DEFENSE.
w. S. Ellis was the first witness fof
| the defense. He said they had all gone
in to see Breckons on June 10th and
were told that they had no case. This
was before the Supreme Court decision.
which Ellis said he thought would he
against them. He had gone first to
see Dunno, to see IL he couldn't put
Sumner under guardianship and stop
the influence of other parties. Mr.
Dunno had absolutely refused to have
anything to do with the case and never
came into the case afterwards. Mr..
Breckons told them they had no show
to put Sumner under guardianship but
he would look the matter UP and see
If there was any other proceeding
which could be brought. Mr.. Breckons
told them that he wanted q retainer of
$500 to bring the suit and they didn't
want anything more to do with it,
Then they had gone to Mr.. Cathcart !
and he brought suit. They paid him
fee OF $500. The case Is now In the |
Supreme Court.
ONLY ASKED A QUESTION.
Eugene Buffandeau testified that he
had gone with Ellis to see Dunno, so
that IL the decision in the Sumner case
was against them they could stop the
Mr.. Dunno told them that he
was busy with the Motley will case.
Mr.. Breckons said, Il don't see that
you have any case at ALL" He wanted
a retainer of $500 and $500 IL he won
and $1,000 If he lost. He said he did not
ask an opinion of Breckons. when
he popped the fee at us of what he
wanted that settled it," said the wit
ness. II never expected to have to
pay just to go in and ask a man

pers in the suit filed by Cathcart, and
Dunno said he would admit that their
advice had been verified. Mrs Ell!s
testified about as did her husband and
Mr.. Buffandeau. She said they were
all very much disappointed at the Id
vice, but she was glad. Mrs. Buffan-
ieau testified as did also her brother
and husband.
Judge Dickey Immediately gave judy
ment in favor of the plaintiffs for the
full amount and costs. An appeal was
noted.

WHARF MAKING
PLANS DECIDED

Superintendent Cooper and Assistant
Superintendent Rowell made an inspec-
ton of wharf improvements yesterday.
Some final decisions were reached.
Sorenson's wharf is to be extended
and reserved as n general merchan-
disc wharf. 1t will probably be equip
ped with two-story warehouse for
receiving and delivering freight, so
that both the inter-island steamer COM
panies may store cargoes of sugar
there to be ready for any ocean ves-
sci that may come along. Labor-sav-
ing facilities for hauling inward and
outward cargo are intended to be pro-
yided, this being a matter into which
Marston Campbell, is expected to look
while on his present visit to the main
land.
Nuuanu and Brewers wharves will
be reserved for the use of Wilder's
Steamship Co., and Emmes's and the
new bukhead wharves for the Inter-
Island Steam Navigation Co. The old
locations of the local companies are
to be swallowed up in the enlarged
slips proposed for the outer harbor--
that is, the portion OF Honolulu har-
Dor outside OF a line drawn in extern
sion Of Fort street.
Work on the new Oceanic wharf Is
completed, also on the Inter-Island
wharf all but the superstructure.
The contract has been let for the
Oceanic sheds.
Bids for the extension of Sorenson's
wharf will be opened on Monday.

JAMES GAY ESTATE.
p. d. Kellett, Jr., has made an elab-
crate report on the accounts of Her.
man Focke and Cecil Brown, trustees
under the will of James Gay, deceased
A summary of the accounts and report
of trustees was previously given in
the Advertiser. The master comments
on the small receipts as compared with
the large expenditures, especially with
regard to the Mokuleia ranch. The re-
ceipts from the ranch. including pro-
ceeds of sales of cattle, amounted to
$2s5J65. while C. p. Iaukea the man
ager drew s5529.24 for its general ex-
penses, etc. The principal item of ex-
pense was S2i20.S6 for clearing lanta-
ma. but the result Is n good condition
of the land so cleared and the trustees
estimate the cost under that head for
the ensuing year will be about half OF
that spent in the past year.
Regarding the accounts, the master
finds a discrepancy of II cents in favor
of the late Ethel Gays estate also
the trining overcharge of GO cents in
commissions. He calls in question the
charge OF 1926 by one of the trustees
as attorneys fee for filing annual ac-
count and hearing in court saying:
THE trustees have no right to sub
ject the trust fund unnecessarily to
charges for counsel and attorneys
fees"
He recommends that the item be dis
allowed, quoting authorities thus:
"A trustee should not be allowed for
compensation paid to an attorney out
of the trust fund, for services which
the trustee should have performed
himself; nor for services rendered in
a suit brought by the trustee IMPROVE
IDENTIFY, or for his own protection.
"a trustee who could have settled
his trust by merely handing the funds.
ETC.. over, win not be allowed a charge
for filing an account"
BY the terms of the will no distrlbu-
ton In this estate can be made until
after the death of all of the testator's
children, seven In all, all the property
being now vested In the trustees to
pay one-half the income to the three
sons or their heirs and the other half
to the four daughters or their heirs.
