CHICKEN STEALING PLOT
HATCHED IN PRISON

The arrests of three Cinnamon by
the police yesterday has brought to
light a chicken stealing plot on a big
scale, a plot Matched within the walls
of the Oahu Jail and carried out in
part by one of the prisoners. Fortu-
nately the detective force nailed the
plotters as soon as their first trick was
turned and recovered the fowls secured
in the first haul.
All Sam got out of jail on Tuesday
last. All Tuck has been loose from
his place on the rock pile since Sunday.
Tai Sung has not been in Jail for some
weeks but knows ali about the place
from firsthand knowledge. Mumu, is
a trusty at the prison, working during
the day on the Pauoa park. All are
larcenists and all hit the pipe when
not doing time. Mumu hits it when
doing time or not, taking a lay-of
from his park work every day to spend
an hour or so in the opium joint at
the corner of Kukui and Nuuanu. The
four made up the hui to steal chickens
around the Pauoa homes to supply the
demand during the Chinese New Year.
While in jail Mumh, All Tuck and All
Sam discussed the plan, maturing 1t
after Tai Sung had been taken in and
the four sucked their gurglingl pipes
in the joint.
Mumu's share was to make friends
with the Japanese and Hawaiians in
the neighborhood to be worked and to
report to the other three concerning
memories, their locks and guards and
the dispositions of the owners. The
others were to do the roost robbing
and whack up on the proceeds. The
first coop to be tackled was that of a
Japanese and this was done on Tues
day night. twenty fat pullets being
bagged. Everything went smoothly
and on Wednesday night the three free
men met on the opium mats to spend
a part of their money and plan other
jobs.
In the sweet security brought about
by the opium fumes the three talked
freely not knowing that three detec-
tives, Apana, Espinda and Lum Han,
were hidden in the joint and piping
off all the condolences From their talk
it was learned that the hens had been
sold to zee Wo. a butcher, who had
agreed to take all that could be sup
piled him at a price of forty cents
apiece.
The officers then adjourned to the
rear of zee Wo's place and watched
In the early morning the butcher came
out. turned over a pile of rubbish and
fed a coop of hens concealed there.
which upon investigation proved to be
the stolen fowl. This made the case
complete and the parties implicated
are now in the police cells, All Tuck
making a full confession of the plan
and its working out since his arrest.

Good Results In Lung Trouble

Mrs. Victor A. Beaucaire, a
prominent club woman of Chi
cage, ILL.,, contracted a severe
cold from being exposed in bad
weather which resulted i'm
serious lung trouble.
Mrs. Beaucaire, after taking
several doses of Duffy's Pure
Malt Whiskey, says it has helped
her wonderfully, brought the
color to her cheeks, and that she
would not be without it.
She pays high tribute to the worlds
greatest tonic stimuIant in the follow
ing letter:
As | am a member of the Hull
House Women's Club, l was called
out many times when the weather
was very bad and so caught very
hard cough, and doctors claimed that
my lungs were affected; in fact the
left lung was almost gone, but since
| have taken your valuable DUFFY'S
PURE MALT WHISKEY, | feel
better and would not do without it.

but am sure of good results; / have
good color in my face and feel that
can work with a great deal more
ambition. | cannot praise it too
much. have recommended it to

are thankful for the benefit they
have already derived from it," Mrs.

FEWER LARCEN|sTs AND
VAGS IN HONOLULU

Through the enforcement of the new
liquor law and the activity of the
police in the campaign they have been
carrying on towards Kidding the town
of Migrants and undesirable characters
there is an astonishing difference in
the figures in the police statistics of
arrests for vagrancy and larceny for
the months of January this year and
last year. This difference accounts in
great measure for the decrease in
the total number of arrests, the figures
for Honolulu being: 381 arrests in
January, 1907; 272 arrests in January,
1908. For vagrancy, the arrests thus
month have been twelve; last year In
January they were So. For larceny,
the arrests this year have been eleven;
last January they were 48. Drunken
ness also gave cause for IL less ar
rests this month than in the CORE
spending month last year, the figures
being As and 81.
The present necessity for fewer prose
cutions for vagrancy and larceny means
large saving for the taxpayers, the
offenders being invariably given Jail
sentences and becoming public charges
on this account, more especially In the
cases of the Migrants, who could not
lie sentenced to hard labor and who
lived therefore at the public expense
without doing the least thing in return
Thus it happens that, in spite of the
one hundred and nine fewer arrests,
the revenues from fines have gone up
this month from $4,000 to $20S5.l5.
There have been two less arrests for
gambling last month than in the first
month of the new administration, but
the percentage of conviction has been
exceptionally high, out of the ninety
four to appear for trial only one man
escaping conviction So careful are the
police in their raids now, in fact, that
very few Chinese elect to fight their
cases, arrest being practically the same
as conviction. This has expedited the
work of the court and made the burden
the less strenuous on the County At
torney's department.
An exceptionally large number of
liquor cases have been on the calendars,
nineteen in all, seventeen, of which rep
resent the January arrests. Of the
seven cases which have come to trial
convictions have been secured in six,
leaving twelve cases pending.

DARYMOUTH'S GAME
Yale Loses to Hanover Visitors
by Inability to Hit
Glaze.
ROSE GOES UP IN THE AIR
Howard Jones Pitches Four Innings
Without Hit--Yalc's Play
Errorlcss.
ROSE GOES UP IN THE AIR

The Yale baseball team again yes
terday manifested Its inability to hit
the ball and was defeated by Dart
mouth by the score of to 2, Until
meeting Yale Dartmouth had won only
four out Of eleven games and the whole
team Of the visitors consisted Of their
pitcher, Glaze and the first baseman,
Brady
From the Yale point OF view the only
redeemng feature Of the game was the
pitching of Howard Jones, who was In
the box the first four innings. In that
period only u men came up to bat and
none Of them were able to make a hit.
Rose went in in the fifth inning and
was In very poor form. In the sixth
Schlldmiller walked and was brought
homo by Glaze's ree-bagger. Glaze
himself was unable to come in as tho
next man UP, Leonard, struck out.
Not until the eighth did the Dart
mouth players fall on Rose Brady led
off with two-bagger and went to
third on Emerson's single. Conroy
walked, but as Wylie was unable to
catch the fourth ball, Brady came run
ming In. Rose was then taken out Of
the box and Van Week went in.
Schlldmiller walked and on Glaze's sac
rifce Emerson came in That ended
the scoring. for Leonard struck out
and Mitchell went out, Dimes to Phil
bin.
Another score by Dartmouth looked
liable In the ninth when Hobart the
first man up, made three Dagger. He
died on third, however. for the next
three men all went out, Fels to Phil
bin.
Yale's two runs were made in the
third inning. On Eaton's error Dimes
reached first and went to second on
Cliffords sacrifice. Bomar sent fly to
| center field, which Mitchell failed to
catch, and Dimes ran down to third.
Williams struck out. Murphy made a
clean single which brought in Dimes
| and Bomar. That ended Yale's scoring.
Brady, the Dartmouth first baseman,
made neat double play in the sew
enth. Philbin had been hit by a pitch
cd ball and gone to first. Van Week
drove liner to first and was out, and
Brady caught Phllbln out off first base.
