GAMBLERS
STIFF FINE
Advertisers Charges
Are Sustained in
Court.

I The Kamaukapili gambling case
came up in the District Court before
Judge Whitney yesterday morning.
/ Kekapa was charged withs conduct
ing a percentage game, to w.t. craps
last Monday afternoon. in the lot where
/ Kamaukapili church once stood.
H. NJ. Ayres. on behalf of the prose
cution, stated that about O'Clock last
Monday afternoon he visited the spot
mentioned and found about twenty
persons shooting craps, Kekapa being
among the number. a japanese made
F., three passes with the dice, whereupon
F., defendant held out his hand and re-
ceived 50 cents from the japanese, it
being the custom in the game Of craps
| as there conducted, for the runner of
the game TO receive a certain rake-off
after a player had made three success
full passes.
| After the Japanese had passed three
times he put down money which
was covered by Kekapa and prepared
Ayres' presence was noticed and the
crowd melted away, KeKapa taking
/ the money that was lying on the
{ ground.
Afte- some expert testimony by wit
ness on the fascinating game of craps,
cross-eXamination by Attorney Harry
Mossman, who appeared for the de-
Tense, followed.
The prosecution rested on the evil
dence SO far adduced, and man
named Charmon was called as a wit
ness for the defense. His testimony
was to the effect that Ayres had not
got within ten yards of the circle of
gamblers and was consequently not in
a position to see what was going on.
The previous witness had testified that
he had watched the game at a distance
of not over foot from the japanese
who was handling the dice and that
he had stood there for four minutes.
Kekepa took the stand on his own
behalf and swore that he was the VIC
tim of an error. He admitted having
been present at the game but stated
that it was not run by him but by a
hui of gamblers, including Iona
George Kaea and Kikila.
Judge Whitney said that Kekapa
was an habitual gambler and sentenced
him to a fine of $3.50 and costs. An
appeal was noted.
Prosecuting Officer Andrade conduct
ed the case in a most able manner,
surprising counsel for the defense by
not calling all his witnesses, and
thereby showing his hand-a clever
piece of strategy with an almost Ger
tain appeal in sight.
Kekapa, who is one of the most no.
torious gamblers in Honolulu, has
heretofore managed to evade the po-
lice and his stiff sentence is likely to
have a deterrent effect upon wide open
crap shooting for some time to come. |
Joe Alfalfa, Pa and Kawainui plead |
ed guilty to having been present at !
the game in question and the first |
and last named defendants were fined |
So and costs, the sentence on Pa being
suspended for six months.
Charges of being present at the game |
against Paulo Hokii, Kapae, Harada |
and Mage were nol-prossed.

but Austria is lacking in all of these.
The gist of the trouble is that each
different nationality wishes to form a
nation of its own and is protesting with
all it's might against being merged into
some other one. At present the only
thing that saves the situation is the
strong personality of the old Emperor,
Francis Joseph The last days of his
long reign are his most anxious ones.
No one knows what will transpire to-
morrow. but all agree that when the
venerable ruler dies, the empire that he
has struggled so hard to maintain viii
end with him.

day that there has been quarrel over
the refusal to allow the use of Magyar
words of command in the Hungarian
army instead of German. Again he
reads that the Hungarian members
have bolted the congress without wait
ing for the royal message. Coupled
with these disquieting but fragmentary
reports are the statistics of emigra-
ton which shows that there is an enor-
nous stream of emigrants from Aus
tria-Hungary to this country. The
number of these disconnected home
seekers coming to our shores has run
as high as 10000 a month, which is an
astounding record.

WHEN THE EMPEROR DIES.

The explanation of the unrest of
Austria Hungary and the exodus there
from lies in the fact that the empire
as it now stands consists of a conglom-
crate mass of races that have been
gathered together under the name of
empire without proper amalgamation.
There is really not as much cause for
the name Austria as there would be
in naming the United States New York
If that state should gain the mastery
of the rest of the union, there would
be, in addition to racial connection. a
common language and common law;
