that of e. NJ. Jones, who faced MORT
taro through bars only few feet away
Along the row were the seven other
murderers or alleged murderers, all lis
tening to the grewsome preparations
for killing one of their number. 1t
was a disagreeable morning in muir
derers' row, to other occupants besides
Matsumoto Moritaro. Some of them
were there when Miranda was hanged
after similar preparations and one or
two, whose cases still linger in the
courts We're in the same gloomy section
of the-prison when Tanbara Gisaburo
made his last statements through the
bars and stepped on the scaffold.
Moritaro was pale as a ghost and
showed some signs of nervousness as
he looked through the bars, but he
greeted Sheriff Henry in cheerful tones
when the sheriff made his first morn
ing visit to the Jail Moritaro put out
hand and the sheriff shook it warm
ly. BY a common impulse of humanity
the prison officials showed as much
kindness to the doomed prisoner as
the law allows and there were several
hand shakes, and good-byes were said
with sympathy, Moritar6 stood the
ordeal bravely. 1t seemed to tell on
his fellow prisoners quite as much as
on him f. NJ. Jones, slightly stouter
as a result of long confinement and
healthful diet. but not a bit less ner-

WHY THE LIMIT
WAS CUT DOWN
STRONG FEELING ON KAUAI
OVER The CUTTING DOWN OF
THE SIZE OF A DAYS BAG"

The action of the executive of the
Kauai game preservation association in
reducing the allowable bag of birds to
three, Immediately after it became
known that Judge Dole and his nephew
e. r. Adams had arrived there for a
few days shooting, has stirred up con-
siderable feeling on t\auai, and it is
thought that very unhandsome thing
to say the least, in relation to Judge
Dole, has been done.
Judge Dole and Mr.. Adams went to
Kauai on the invitation of a member
of the association. They had been there
only a day when Senator Paul Isen-
berg, who had heard of their arrival
and is president of the association, call
ed a meeting of the executive commit
tee, of which Sheriff j. H. Coney is a
member, and the regulation was adopt
ed cutting down the limit of the num-
Der of birds a sportsman is allowed to
shoot to three. This new regulation
was at once telephoned over to where
Judge Dole and Mr.. Adams We're, and
they decided not to continue their
shooting any longer.
The purpose of limiting the size of a
days bag, is, of course to preserve he
I game Permission to shoot must be
obtained from the owners of the land
over which the shooting was to be
done. The organization is for the pur-
pose of uniting all interested, for a
purpose. The regulations bind only
those who have a right to shoot and
have agreed to them, but all sportsmen
recognize the usefulness of such regu-
! lations and conform to them.
/ However, the sudden reduction of the
allowable number to such a small num-
Der as three, just as the time it was
I done, is looked on by many of the
members of the association as savor-
| ing of discourtesy to Judge Dole and
| Mr.. Adams, and the member who in
/ vited them over, and there is talk that
some of the members of the association
/ will withdraw on account of 1t. SEN
atOr Isenberg is credited with having
/ inspired the new regulation and with
having been able to carry it through by
reason of the fact that for convenience,
the control of the organization and it's
| regulations has been placed i'm the
hands OF a very small number of men,
/ of whom Senator Isenberg is one.

to amend the franchise of the Zenith

the matter at length, and it was agreed
that 1t would offer it's support to the

say?
The gossiping neighbor.
Who is ever alert for somebody's shame,
Making a. nob0dy:Dut of a good mans
name,
Kindling the tickle spark to flame?
The scandalizing neighbor.
Who implores the laws at the pranks of
boys
Forgetting the days of youthful joys:
With complaining the neighborhood
annoys?
The designing neighbor.
Pussilanimous? Aye, answers the Sigh!
And We wonder If we'll meet up in
the sky,
When to heaven above our souls
doth fly.
