Twenty-Five YEARS
At HARD LABOR

Kaapana, the Hawaiian who MUIR
dered his wife, Kakana, the lei seller,
by beating her to death while drunk,
was this morning arraigned for SEN
tence before Judge Lindsay, he haV-
ing previously pleaded guilty to MUIR
der in the second degree.
He was sentenced to Imprisonment
at hard labor for rs years.
The prisoner took the sentence with
out comment, or showing any sign.
His attorneys Wilmington and Larnach
each made pleas to the court for Glenn
ency, stating that it was against their
wishes that their client had pleaded
guilty, and that they believed that a
trial Of the case would result in very
extenuating circumstances being shown
The prisoner is thirty-four years OF
age at the present time, and he will be
quite an old man in case he lives out
his sentence.

FOR
FOURTH
A NAVAL OPINION ABOUT THE
VISIT OF BIG BATTLBSHlP
FLEET.

While there is talk of doubt as to
whether or not the Atlantic fleet is
going to visit Honolulu, there is no
doubt in the minds of the Naval au-
thorities here.
There may be an absence of the
mention of Honolulu in the mainland
press stories of the itinery of the
fleet" said a Naval man to a repre-
sentative of The Star this afternoon.
but you must remember that back
East they think the Atlantic coast is
all there is to the United States and
they don't know any more about Ho-
nolulu than we here know about Gill
ga. Again, the Pacific coast cares no.
thing whether the fleet comes to Ho-
nolulu or not AS long as it visits San
Francisco, that is all that city cares.
They are planning a big reception
there. Honolulu might just as well
begin appointing a committee for a
reception of the fleet, fer it is coming
to Honolulu just as sure as the steam
ship Strathgarry is dumping over five
thousand tons of coal on the Naval
wharf here.
Don't use my name, for you know
how particular the service is about
officers opening their mouths We dare
not say we dislike the regulation col
lar without fearing a reprimand, but
you can tell that reception committee
that there will be something doing
here about the Fourth of July next.
THE fleet is coming here. That is
assured, and it won't be part of the
fleet, but the entire feet of battle
ships. Honolulu will be TANNED with
men-of-war and Pearl harbor will be
alive with torpedo boats, destroyers
and submarines.
THE Navy is not going to send one
hundred thousand tons of coal here
for the Iroquois.
I'VE have our advices and our or
ders. Let Honolulu get ready for the
/ fleet Urge Washington to send the
boats here, if you like, they are COM
ing here anyawy. Urging may serve
to advertise the islands and let the
mainland know Honolulu will make 1t
merry for the fleet; but it is coming
anyhow"

OWNERS

ACT EXEMPTING PINEAPPLE
LANDS DOES NOT BENEFIf
OWNERS UNDER LEASES.

Owners of land leased for use for
pineapple cultivation cannot claim tax
exemption under the act Of the legisla-
ture exempting property in use for the
cultivation of pineapples, under a de-
cision given this morning by the Su-
premS Court in the case of Tax Asses
sor Holt against Edgar Wood.
The opinion of the court, by Justice
Wilder, sets forth that the lessons in
terest in leased land is distinct from
the interest of the lessee, and that it
is the lessee's Interest which is used
for pineapple production and is there
fore exempt under the law. The as
SCISSOR is sustained and the defendant
is declared liable for taxes on the
land

KENT TO SPEAK
Communicated

NCOulul
William Kent, Yale man and re-
former, will speak at Central Union
church tomorrow evening on the vital
question of christian Citizenship
All will be welcome. 1t is certainly
that those who are interested in the
story of Chicago and its fight for de-
cent government and the lessons it has
for Honolulu will turn out to hear
this practical reformer.
Mr. Kent was president of the ex-
ecutive committee of the Municipal
Voters League, had seat in the
Board of Aldermen during the trou-
blous times and stood in the forefront
of the battle line The story of how
he became interested in the reform
movement through the candidacy OF a
friend who was turned down by the
machine and how he and his coterie
fought gang to a standstill is one OF
the romances Of modern day politics
Mr.. Kent hunts for a spOilsmen and
craftsmen with the same zest that he
chases big game on the plains of the
West
He will give a talk straight from
the shoulder on a live topic. Here
where the rumblings from the lowe
world are just announcing an eruption
in county politics, where the colleg'
club of women are making a study o
! municipal government, where the Civ
ic Federation and other organization
are girding on their armor and pre-
pairing for the fray. What he will hav
to say will have a direct local applI
1 cation. He will speak under the aus
pieces of the Civic Federation. A larg
audience who hope for light from Ca
cago in our dark places will bear MI
Kent.

hold Of the live wire and was not no
ticed until A. Gartley and Mits Mist
were about to pass in an automobile,
Miss Mist noticed the lads hands
smoking and told Gartley who at once
seized an umbrella and went to the
rescue, removing the wires from the
boys hands with the umbrella. Ralph
was unconscious and two fingers wer,
burned off and there were bad burns
