revoked).
In this latter case Chief of Detec-
tives Taylor, Joe Leal and others ar
rested Marcelino de Cambria last sat
urday night, but he was discharged In
police court this morning, calming
that he was running the store for LUZ
and that he ate there and that LUZ
allowed him wine from the stock OF
the closed saloon to drink with his
meals and he had invited some OF mis-
friends to drink with him. There was
no evidence to contradict this defense
and defendant was discharged. rms
is an example of the difficulties con-
fronting the police and here is an OPP
portunity for Fennell to distinguish
himself.
There is another notorious place, in
Nuuanu valley, en- route to the Pail
but the proprietor has threatened to
shoot Chief of Detectives A. P. Taylor
for trespass if he ever shows himself
on the grounds. One night the police,
disguised as women, wearing holokus,
playing guitars and singing hulas,
went in a wagon up the valley with
the. idea of raiding this house, but the
expedition failed and it was following
this that Taylor's life was threatened.
In order to successfully approach
these places men unknown to the resi-
dents must be employed and they must
be men who are trusted. A swipe-1oint
was nearly raided not long ago when
the game was spoiled by an 1nformer
talking too much
The joints in Kakaako, on Punch
bowl and in Palama are too numer-
Gus to mention. On Punchbowl wine
and whiskey and gin can be secured al
any time day or night or Sundays by
anyone in the know"
In Kakaako wine and beer, particu-
larly wine, crowd out gin and whiskey
to large extent. In some stores so
small a stock of groceries is carried
that one wonders how the propmetors
make living, until he is initiated IN
to the mysteries of the back-room.
The locations Of blind pigs are ire
quently changing, but careful watch
ing of offenders easily Identifies new
locations.
In the blind-pigs bad liquor is usu-
ally sold and big profits made. and
trouble is born in these drinking holes
that never originates in decent sa-
looms or cafes.

appreciation as was shown me tonight
here and I wish to thank the people OF
Honolulu for it,"
Miss Basche, says that she heard all
the great violinists in the world, but
she has never seen or heard any that
play the way Miss Hall does. "Her
whole soul is simply wrapped up in her
music and she is so unaffected about
it that it is indeed a great pleasure
to be with her. We first met in Europe
when we were both studying and be-
came very thick and dear friends. 4
have been with Hiss Hall since last
November and expect to be with her
in all her future tours. l wish to ex-
tend to the public of Honolulu my
thanks for the appreciation that was
shown me last night, and only regret
that could not do more for them, but
our long voyage was very tiresome
and one does not feel very much like
playing just after such a long trip"
