PRETTY GOOD DAY
IN POLICE COURT

But why should they adjourn the
case?'' demanded Solomon Matthews OF
no one in particular at the Police Court
Yesterday morning. with a great big
woman like that 1 tell You my life is
! not safe!''
The lady of size of whom Mr. Mat
thews was in terror is Mrs. Kalei
Aona, alias Eva Lewis, one of his ten
ants in the Australian block, on Fort
street. The immediate cause of his
fright is that the lady announced her
intention of choking him if he inter
| fered further in any of her three O'Clock
| luncheons. a. m. or p. m. 1t is fair to
| say, however, that the lady, as she APP
! peared in court yesterday, would not
| be guilty of choking anyone. Uncer-
| tain, coy and hard to please, as the
poet said she may be, but homicidal
never.
The specific charge upon which she
is accused is that of profanity, and
an adjournment to secure counsel being
asked for was granted. Hence the
complainants lamentation.
Mateo Colon who has a number of
serious charges against him, including
attempted murder, burglary and as
sault with deadly weapon, appeared
for his preliminary hearing. Colon is
the man supposed to have made the
murderous attacks on a japanese nurse
and Japanese boarder at one of the
Chinatown hotels some weeks ago and
his reputed victims were able for the
first time to be out of the hospital to
testify. Their evidence against him
was pretty conclusive and he was COM
mitted for trial on one of the charges,
that of stabbing the Japanese man. He
will be up again on the other cases.
Colon went on the stand in his own
behalf and testified that he had not
been in town on the night of October
Is, the date of the burglaries and as
saults in question. He had been peace
fully sleeping off a drunk at the reser-
voir. The next afternoon he came into
town and had been put under arrest in
Punchbowl by policeman, but wher,
the cop was trying to put handouts on
him he broke and ran, getting away
and spending the Fest of the day in Ka-
kaako.
This part of his evidence was a hard
knock at the police, who, since CoIon's
arrest, have been plumine themselves
on his capture, but who have main !
tanned great secrecy over the fact that
they had him under arrest once before !
but couldn't keep him
At the afternoon session the cases
against Taylor and Matheson, of the !
Advertiser, were brought up, being con-
tinued at the request of the prosecu- |
ton until the Both inst. 1t was no !
ticeable that the big crowd of Chinese ,
spectators, who have never before miss !

to be tried, were very much absent !
yesterday. The fact that a good many
had been invited up to see the grand
jury may account for their absence

favor of 1aukea. I have heard that
some of the inspectors say they erred
slightly in favor of Brown, that is, they
have been admitted by other Judges.
1 do not think this was done with any
intent to defraud, the inspectors mere
ly drew their lines closer than there
was any real necessity for doing"
w. A Kinney declined to say any
thing regarding the matter beyond
denying that any charge had been laid
against Buffandeau. He believes he
is close to Brown and to leave the bal
lots where they are practically in the
hands of the enemy did not seem fair
to his client. He had wired Mr.. Iaukea
to return TO Honolulu at once as it
was imperative that he be here on
Monday. He will arrive here Satur-
day. AS to the fourteen days allowed
his client to answer, Mr.. Kinney said
he had waived all of that and did not
think it worth while to put in a de-
murrer. He feels satisfied with his
position and talked like a man who
had something up his sleeve and did
not care about pulling it out at this
time.
Word was sent to the Grand Jury
Yesterday that witnesses would testify |
that he had fixed the ballots before |
md could do it again; that they were !
n 'our" possession, as he put it and |
hat he was ready to go to jail for the
sake of seating Brown.

the slightest faith in the suggestion
that they have been in anyway dis

would require cutting the bag or break

to repair the damage without its being
