pected to present was begun. with the
testimony of Mrs. Annie H. Kentwell,
former employer of the alleged muir
derer. She gave a number Of details
as to peculiarities i'm JohnsOn's con-
duct and created something of a sem
sation by telling of an occasion on
which he chased her children and those
of a neighbor with a stick. 1t was the
cause of his leaving her place to 90 to
Waialua.
Il always trust my children perfect
ly with Johnson" said Mrs. Kentwell,
"and so did my neighbor Mr. Castle.
They used to play in the barn together.
One day the children came running out
and said Johnson was acting queerly
and chased them with a stick That
was the reason he left us and went to
WaialuH for vacation. He never
was able to work long without vaca-

very simple minded He called Kent

any but their first names. He didn't

unable to learn them. When he drank

and sing loudly.
"When he got angry" said Mrs.
Kentwell talking almost in the Ian
guage which some of the insanity ex-

used to tremble all over. If told him
he was not doing his work right, he
would get into a temper and shake all

Mrs. Kentwell told of a difficulty she
once had with Johnson when he was

told him to go to his room, but he

it, and he went. After that n was

TODAY is CHINESE
DECORATION DAY
HUNDREDS OF CHINAMEN VISIT
ED THE GRAVEYARD IN MANOA
TODAY TO DECORATE GRAVES.

The anxious house wives Of Honolulu
were probably mystified over the non
appearance of their Chinese cook and
yard boys today. They may have
searched for them but unless they took
the tip from the fact that th- Manoa
Valley cars were crowded with Orien-
the possible exception of Chinese New
their particular servants, their search
must have been in vain. For today
hundreds of Cinnamon are visiting the
Manoa valley Chinese graveyard and
paying their respects to their departed
ancestors
Today is the one day of the year, with
the possible exception off Chinese New
Years, most sacred to the Chnaman's
heart. Today is a day set apart by
Her Imperial Highness, the Empress Of
China flor the worship of the dead.
1t was during the Sung dynasty A.
d. APO that the custom originated 1t
seems that the emperor fell into some
deadly peril and was rescued by a COM
mon laborer. The Emperor wishing to
pay honor to the man who saved his
life sent a commissioner to find him
and bring him to the palace The
man heard of the coming commissioner
and being frightened took his aged
mother upon his back and fled to a
forrest where he hid. The commissioner
in pursuit of the man, knowing that he
was hid i'm the forest started a fire to
run him out, but rather than give him
sci up the man persisted in the flame S.
The emperor being sorry for the man $
untimely end set apart a day for the
commemoratiOn of his death. The GUS
tom grew until today all over China
men leave their work and pay their
respects to those who have gone before
The graveyard in Manoa was today
cleaned of weeds. Much incense was
burned and offerings of roast pig and
chicken let at the graves. Thousands
Of tirecrackers were burned and many
curious rites gone through. Now the
Chinaman will let the weeds grow un-
disturbed until the empress appoints
another day, in April next sometime
flor another decoration day.

CABLED KUHIO

The Chamber of Commerce prompted
by Lieut.. Slattery's interview in yes
terdays Star that the proposed work
would be of little value, has sent a ca
BILE to Delegate Kuhio asking him to
oppose the $4,000 appropriation for the
reclamation of the reef section of the
naval reservation. The members of the
Association think there are other much
more important matters for which ap-
preparations should be made and object
to the pressing of this particular APP
preparation. If it is made, the mem
bers think, there will be so much less
for other propositions here, and the
need of money for lighthouses and 9TH

urgent.

JUDGE DOLE'S DECISION OF YES
TERDAY WILL RESULT IN RE
QUEST FOR LEGISLATION.

The decision of United States Judge
Dole yesterday in the Merriam case
will result in an effort to amend the
pending appropriation bill so that Con-
gress will knock out the law in which
the decision is based, as far as the
federal governments dealings with the
record Office is concerned Dole held
that Merriam had no right under the
new law of the Territory to record
maps with the title which the United
State is acquiring to certain lands for
military here required that such re-
cord be made befor- the title to the
land could be approved, ana conse-
quently the appropriation to pay for
the land is held up.
Lieutenant Slattery has recommend
ed that an addition b. made to the APP
preparation act providing that money
shall not be paid for lands unless the
maps are recorded as asked for and
that no provisions of the Territorial
act here shall apply to transactions in
which the United States is concerned.

BEANS GALORE
At THE CAPITOL
CAPTAIN GREEN'S INTERESTING
COLLECTION OF CURIOUS PODS
FROM THE GROUNDS.

There are over twenty varieties of
beans here" said Captain R. T. Green
caretaker of the Capitol grounds this
morning, as he gathered some of the
long pods of the Golden Shower" tree
and they prove of much interest to
tourists. Some of the pods are as
much as two inches long and are curio-
stiles indeed to the average American
visitor 1t is a curious thing that all
our shade trees run to beans and even
shrubs have their seeds in that form"
In his office Captain Green has quite
a collection of the pods, of all sorts
of sizes and shapes. Some are as
thick as walking stick and a couple
of feet long. The Ponciana Regia is
among those most sought after by
tourists. 1t is a large and fiat and
on it's surface pictures are drawn or
painted making interesting souvenirs.

Before the absence off Governor Carter

nounccments at the first meeting after
his return. I'm fact. Carriers breakdown

and it has been a complicated and
laborious task. Some of the principal
difficulties it is said, have been due to
the fact that some plantations had only
| leased land
There will be no contracts with the
laborers, it is understood, till after they
land here. The law would not allow
closing such deals except with men
who are here Stackable, however,
will be authorized to call the attention
of Portuguese or others to the attrac-
tons which Hawaii offers to settlers,
and among those attractions is the
chance for steady employment and the
requirement of a home, with at least
an acre of land, in fee simple. The
Board has no control of the settlers
after they come here, but all will ma
turally be quick to seek employment.
Among the principal difficulties of
reaching an agreement has been a con-
siderable divergence of views among
the planters as to how long the CON
tracts should be, what should be the
rate of wages and what other benefits
should be offered to the laborers. All
these details have been discussed at
length by the parties interested and
mutual concessions have been made
The governments original position is
said to have been that the contracts
should be threeyear contracts. labor
ers to get fee simple titles at the end
of three years, while some of the plan
tations favored much longer contracts

settled, but it is not thought that any
Of them are of sufficient Importance Ia
