ONE ARREST LED
To TWO OTHERS

Kenneth Cameron, late of Hilc, walked
into the police station yesterday to
complain about being defrauded of
some money just as the police were
looking for him on a charge of having
defrauded some one else of money. The
story he told the police has also led
to the arrest for investigation of two
others, one Charles Donahue, a hack
driver with a somewhat shady reputa-
ton, and the other crap shooter, Lo-
ma by name.
Cameron is accused of having COM
mitted gross cheat in Hilo, getting
away with $3.50 in cash. Word TO that
effect and request for his arrest was
sent from the Hawaii sheriff yester-
day to Sheriff Iaukea. Cameron was
unknown to the police and just as
Chief Taylor was issuing instructions
to his specials to go out and locate
the man, he walked in with state
ment that Donahue had driven off with
$109 left in his custody and had disap-
peared. He was held and the dragnet
was thrown out for the hackdriver.
He, after being brought in, stated that
he had no money, having been gam
bling all day with Iona and dropped
his wad. This led to a search for Lo-
ma, who was arrested and searched,
seventy-eight dollars being found on
him.

gree and pleaded guilty to murder in

In Territory Y. Watanabe a jury
trial was had and defendant was found
guilty and was sentenced to two years
at hard labor. There was another jury
trial and that was of Territory against
two Koreans, who were defended by
Mr.. Maydwell and were found not
guilty.

A BELGIAN DOCTOR
A M0L0KA| VISITOR

Among the recent visitors to the
leper settlement was DR.. Dekeyser, a
representative of the Belgian Govern
ment. He was especially requested to
visit the settlement if possible. The
Belgian Government is especially inter-
ested in the settlement because most,
if not all, of the priests and brothers
in charge of churches and institutions
at the settlement are Belgians by birth.
Father Damien was Belgian. DR..
Dekeyser. after his visit, said that the
settlement, in the comfort and provi-
sion it made for the lepers, and in the
generally cheerful and contented life
which they led, was g. revelation to
him. He said he should report to his
government that the generally-held be-
lief of the dolor and suffering of the
lepers and of daily martyrdoms to the
horrors of the lazaretto of those who
devote their lives to the care of the
lepers is without foundation.
DR.. Dekeyser landed at Kaunakakai,
and went across the island and over
the steep pail to the settlement.

INDIANA WILL
COME AGAIN

CFrom saturdays Advertiser)
II think II is altogether likely that
the charterers OF the Indiana will take
advantage of their option on the
steamer TO bring her here again for
the second trip" said Attorney A. V.
Gear yesterday. after he had been
aboard that vessel and held a consul
tation with her captain. There has
been no difficulty in getting passen-
gers enough for her for this trip"
II is Mr.. Gears name that is signed
10 the charter of the Indiana not that
OF Fred Maxine. as has been supposed
and given out. At least this is what
was stated yesterday by Captain John
Barneson in explaining the position
of the owners Of the vessel in taking
away Hawaiian japanese.
I'VE were paid lump sum for the
charter of the Indiana he said, and
what her charterers want TO do with
her is none OF our affair. Mr.. Gear,
who signed the charter for those who
paid the company. is giving US in
srrucrions and we are carrying them
out"
Captain Barneson, who arrived in
Honolulu with his family on the s. S.
Siberia, is not only the bigger part Of
the Barneson-Hibberd company, in
whose fleet the Indiana belongs, but is
individually the owner of three-tenths
OF the steamer. the company owning
six-tenths. He is proud of the liner
and inclined TO resent a little the fact
that her arrival here is not looked
upon as an unmiXed blessing.
a good proportion OF these Japa-
nese intend TO leave Hawaii anyway
he said. and once they get restless
they will get out, if not by the In
diana then by some other ship"
Fred Maxine, who is looking after
the emigrant end of the Indiana pas
senger list. is quoted as saying that
/ enough japanese emigrants are ready
now 10 board the steamer 10 take UP
all the available accommodations in
the steerage. These are ready to go
aboard now and will probably move
in and locate in the Indiana today or
! tomorrow. No trouble of any kind IS
| expected either here or at the Van
/ couver end of the trip. The vessel
came down in ballast and brought No
! passengers.

SCULPTOR HUTCHINSON

Stafordshire, is actively engaged in
his ministerial work at the age of Sc.

FOUNDED IN HONOUR.

No doubt you have seen in the
papers such announcements as

had reason to speak in that way
concerning the remedy named in
this article. In a trade extern
ding throughout the world, no.
body has ever complained that
our medicine has Iailed, or asked

WITNESSES OF
COOKS DEATH

Editor Friend:-An interesting testi
mony is given in the Sydney Morning
Herald OF June %, by one Captain
Samuel Charles, who in March, 1850
interviewed at kealakekua an aged
man who had witnessed the death OF
Capt. James Cook, seventy-one years
previous.
This is especially interesting to my.
self, because in my childhood, while
living at Kailua, was Familiarity ac.
quainted with the aged Kekupuohi
who stood close to Cook when he fell
She was then a youthful wife of the
King kalaiopuu, or Terreoboa,
whom Cook had arrogantly arrested,
and was leading by the hand TO his
boat, intending to detain him as a hos
tage on board of his ship, until salts
faction should be given for the theft
of a boat. The exasperated chiefs
killed Cook at the water g edge.
l often saw the spot when a child,
and was born in house twenty rods
north thereof ia February, 1927. Ke-
house in Kallua, and only short dis
lance south from the stone church,
which was built in 1886, the year in
which the Bishops removed to Eva,
Oahu. I was then nine years old, and
have more distinct recollection of Ke-
kupuohi than Of perhaps any other Ha-
waiian of Kailua
She must then have been nearly
eighty years of age, but was not very
lnfrm. Her face was to child, a
rather pleasant and comely one. / have
the strongest impression of certain
beauty in the fine wrinkles which COW
cred the whole of her features.
All the facts relating TO the death of
Capt. Cook were carefully and thor
Oughly investigated by the earlier mis-
siOnaries, while many vigorous and in
telligent natives were still surviving
who were eye-witnesses. Those facts
are well summed up in Alexander's His
tory, and accord substantially with the
journals of Ledyards and DR.. Ellis.
Messrs. Thurston, Ruggles and Bishop
lived near the spot, and were all ex-
tremely intimate with the native peo-
pie.
The chief and governing fact in that
most singular series Of incidents, was
the people s worshipping of Capt. Cook
as their God Lono, and consecrating to
him a heiau, or temple.
One of my own most impressive reeol-
leetions of Kailua is that OF four huge
timber idols erected on a heiau imme-
diately seward of Kamehameha s old
house. They were probably spared
from the universal destruction of idols
in 1919, out of reverence to the depart
ed kings memory. They were of the
most hideous type. l have heard that
later, Governor Kuakini fell away so
far as to offer them worship, for which
Father Thurston valiantly rebuked the
formidable ehieftain and brought him
70 repentance.
