FIVE YEARS

Yamamoto Tells a Story
in ExtenuatiOn--
Court Notes.

Yamamoto was found guilty of AS
other japanese at Waialua, intending to
commit murder, by jury before Judge
De Bolt yesterday afternoon. Answer
ing the regular question if he had any
thing to say why he should not be SCH
fenced, the defendant, through the in
terpreter, told story about dispute
over money which occurred between the
complaining witness and himself before
the assault At the trial the victim
had displayed fourteen scars as evil
dence of how he had been operated
upon by the defendant with knife.
Judge De Bolt, in passing sentence,
said he had felt like imposing the max
imum penalty-a fine of not more than
$1,000 and Imprisonment not to exceed
ten years. However, taking cognizance
OF what had been said by and on behalf
OF the defendant, the court made the
sentence a fine of $25 and imprison-
ment at hard labor for five years.

, AN AMERICAN REMEDY.

There is probably no medicine manu-
featured that can be found in more
homes in the United states than Cham
berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy. 1t has been in general use
for over thirty years and each sue
cessive epidemic of diarrhoea and
dysentery during this time has tested
its merit and proved its superiority
over all similar preparations. The re-
liability aid prompt cures of this
remedy have won for it the confidence
OF many physicians who often pre-
scribe it in their practice. No case
has ever yet been reported where its
use has failed to give relief This
remedy is for sale in this city by Ben
son. Smith & Co., Agents for Hawaii.

A Honolulu Case

Many More Like It In Honolulu.
The following case is but one OF
many similar occurring daily in Homo
lulu. It is an easy matter to verify its
correctness. Surely you cannot ask for
better proof than such conclusive
evidence.
Jurgen Walter of this city tells us
as follows: MY age is 79-well past
the parent of eight children. Being
so far advanced in years, regard the
relief obtained from Doan's Backache
Kidney Pills.
I suffered from a lame back for
years, but after taking some of the
pills (procured at HOLSTERS drug
store) was greatly benefited, and I am
satisfied the pills did me much good
Our kidneys filter our BLOOD. They
work night and day. When healthy
they remove about 500 grains of i'm
pure matter daily, when unhealthy
some part Of this impure matter is
left in the blood. This brings On many
diseases and symptoms-pain in the
back, headache, nervousness, hot, dry
skin, Rheumatism, govt, gravel, dis
order, eyesight and hearing, dizziness,
irregular heart, debility, drowsiness,
dropsy, deposits in the urine, etc. But
if you keep the filters right you will
have no trouble with your Kidneys.
Doan's Backache Kidney Pills are
sold by all chemists and storekeepers
at so cents per box. or will be mailed
on receipt of price by the HOLSTER
Drug Co., wholesale agents for the Ha-
waiian Islands.

been sufficient to lift its lava above the crater

Some OF its eruptions since 1908 have,
however, been especially spectacular. and the
Mexican Government has thought the matter
of sufficient scientific interest to warrant daily
reports OF the volcanoes doin gs. which are regu-
larry printed by the weather bureau at the

The farmers for miles around consider the
volcano a great nuisance, though their fields
benefit by the fertill2ing quality OF the dust
it sprinkles with great liberality. These
farmers have repeatedly been told that there
are no signs Of any augmentation of the erup-
tive power, but they have the vision before
their eyes Of Mont Pelee. and they have no con

BOthersOme Details.

It Ia not surprising that Colonel BRYAN
thinks seriously Of abandoning his trip
to New Zealand. His project for public
ownership Of this country's trsnsporta-
ton lines promises to keep him busy
making explanations for some time to
come. II he remains uninterruptedly
at home from now until the Democrats
meet in national convention in 1908 he
will not have more time than he will
need to answer satisfactorily the queries
that have already been put to him by
friends and opponents.
Mr.. BRYAN's programme has brought
to light the existence Of a strong State
rights sentiment in every State in the
Union, a survival Of doctrines that he
may have considered abandoned and for
gotten long ago. Questions regarding
traffic regulation, such az the separa-
ton of the races in Southern States,
have already been asked that will require
ingenuity and thoughtful consideration
to answer. Industrious and energetic
as he is, Mr.. BRYAN will have little time
for other matters il he goes as deeply
into the problems thus presented as a
great constructive statesman would feel
it his duty to.
There is another aspect Of public own
ership of all the railroads to which Mr..
BRYAN may some day feel it worth while
to devote a little thought. How is the
transfer Of the properties from their
present ownership to the Government
to be financed? 1t is probable that Mr..
BRYAN has thought of this. If he has
not he will find it an engaging field for
the exercise of his mental processes.
