LYMAN'S ASSAULT
ON EDITOR KINNEY

This weeks Hilo Tribune contains
the following account of the assault
upon it's editor by Supervisor Lyman.
which was briefly reported to The Star
by wireless the day it happened:
Supervisor Norman X. Lyman last
week started a police court record for
himself, being booked on the police
court blotter on charge of assault and
battery on Editor Kinney of the Tri-
bune. Lyman forfeited his bail
"The assault took place at noon last
Wednesday on the veranda of the post
Office. where Kinney was awaiting TIE
distribution of the Mauna Kea mail
Lyman stepped up to Kinney and ask
ed him to step aside as he wished to
talk with him privately. This Kinney
did, and Lyman began long TRADE of
objections to the editorial, contained
in the issue of the Tribune of the pre-
vious day, asking the Supervisors to
strive for harmony. These objections
were couched in the language of the
toughest parts of the tenderloin.
ct is none of your d business,
anyhow Lyman concluded, referring
to the doings of the Botrd of Super
visors.
Kinney answered that the actions
of the Board were his business as we'll
as that of the entire community, and
requested Lyman to conduct himself
more quietly, as his conduct was be-

f. b. Steere, d. H. Lewis and others,
The property put up first was the
lot on Bishop street between the Way
block and the Mutual Telephone Cos
lot at Bishop and Merchant, containing
S,715 square feet. Bidding started at
$4,000, from which the figures were
advanced slowly to $22 100 at which the
property was sold to the First National
Bank.
The second sale was of 475 shares
of the capital stock of w. G. Peacock
& Company. This was offered in
lump and was therefore too big for easy
handling by ordinary investors. R.
]. Buchly was the buyer, the selling
total being $20,4O0.
Next came the lot ano warehouse on
Queen street opposite the Office of the
Board of Health. This was sold to
the First American Savings & Trust
Co., for the rather low price of S2,5OO
The last sale was Of the lot and build
ings at the corner of Nuuanu and Mer-
chant streets, the lot containing A.
72S square feet. AS before the First
American Savings & Trust Co., proved

ed at large, and the judgment Of the
insanity commissioners.
The opinion goes on to say that
questions decided in certain previous
cases in re Atcherley will not be re-
examined at this time, the acts un-
der which Atcherley's examination
and commitment were had having
been held to be constitutional.
All requirements were duly COM
piled with at the trial of the doctor.
Atcherley cannot complain, says
the opinion, that more time was not
allowed him for argument; he argued
for two and half hours; also wit
nesses which he claims he was un-
able to get the commissioners to pro-
duce were admitted to be ready to
testify to the effect claimed by the
petitioner.
Also the admitted testimony was
immaterial. The refusal of the COM
missioners to produce an alleged real
paranoeac from the asylum and an
inmate of the leper receiving station,
was not even erroneous.
1t is shown that the defendant had
a full and fair trial and the order
appealed from is affirmed.

ginning to attract the attention of 9TH
ers who were waiting for their mail.
For answer Lyman, without the
slightest provocation or warning struck
Kinney on the jaw, without even Civ
ing him chance to remove his glass
es.
Lyman was Immediately seized by
Captain of Police Silva, who was stand
ing close. The supervisor still added
an abusive epithet, the worst known in
the English language, but this was,
however. quite in line with the rest of
the vocabulary which he had been en-
ploylng. He then tried to overawe the
officer into sparing him from being
conducted to the police station, but
Silva was firm, and the Supervisor had
to follow him.

sode the Tribune says:
Supervisor Norman Lyman is an
anachronism The day for hoodlum

Birbe and his disreputable crew were
driven out Lyman's talent might be

mistaken"

DEPUTY CARL SMITH
JUDIClALLY RECOGNIZED

Judge Matthewman, at the present
Third Circuit Court term at Kailua,
brushed aside technical objection to
the appearance of Carl s. Smith as
deputy county attorney. He sustained
the objection to Attorney G. w. Ash
ford's motion to disclose authority.
This was made in the defense of
Chong Sing, charged with burglary in
the second degree. The trial went on,
but resulted in disagreement of the
jury-reported as ten for conviction
and two contrary.
AS the ruling of the court is impor-
tant, the following extracts from it
are given:
"There is presumption of law that
person who is in undisturbed posses
sion of an office, and is exercising it's
functions and performing it's duties,
has come into Office lawfully, and has
a right to continue therein. Except in
a proceeding of quo warranto brought
by an officer de jure, this presumption
is conclusive. 1t attaches to a person
who may have been illegally appointed
TO an Office, if he is de facto officer
and, likewise, it attaches to deputy
who continues to act as such without
reappointment, after his principal has
gone out of Office or entered on a sec
ond term.
while there is no evidence before
the court to show whether or not Carl

OF cheer.

Harling shook his head.
Il don't think we could, sir. And

sible. Wait a minute"
He sprang to the key again and with
firm, emphatic strokes drove an i'm
perative message.
whats that?" asked the captain.
81 asked for his radius of communi.
cation-how far he could send" ex-
planned Harling. He waited a moment
and then the receiver began again its
nervous, frightened clicking.
The face of the listening operator
frightened.

ing the clicks. why, we must be
within forty miles to get him at all

Again the receiver began a wild
tattoo. The light went out of Har.

turned almost piteously to the captain.
He says they're breaking up. sir

two men in the wireless room looked
at each other. and slowly each saw the

They waited with blanched faces. The
receiver stayed still.

softly at Inst. and outside the wireless
room the wind roared triumphantly,
while the big waves pitched the ship
about in the teeth of the gale.
Harling dropped back into a chair.

they might be closer; they might be

He stopped, grasping the table and

dirty coward! Sending that way at
such a timer
He seized the key and drove oct
fercely his command:
Send position
For reply the receiver clicked bach,
in the same ratified way:
Yacht Irvessa breaking upon reef.
For Gods sake help us! viii pay any
reward if you will save us at once!
Help us quick, for Gods sake"
The rage of the operator had risen.
The thought of lives resting on the
work Of the coward was awful.
1.-The foolp' he gasped. IF he's
breaking up. why is he wasting time
that way?" And then his own message
volleyed out into the night:
What reef? Send position Quick!'
In panicky clicks the answer came
back. 1t was the same idiotic ravinG
of fear crazed man.
I'm reward you. | am E. 81, Pinck-
ney and rich. Have thirty on board.
VIII reward handsomely
Again Harling drove out the short
demand for the position of the wreck
ed yacht. Then. as he waited for re-
ply. he seized the captains telephone q
second time.
Its the yacht Irvessa, captain. She
reports going to pieces. There's a
frightened fool at the key-B. II.
Pinckney. Can't even get his position.
I'm doing my best, sir. but Pinckney's
lost his nerve completely. If they had
a man at the key we might get some
thing"
He hung up the phone to listen in
disgust and despair TO Pinckney's
rawlings driven out through the storm.
There was no chance for Harling to
send. The man at the lrvessa key
kept pounding. with no sense TO his
messages. As the Monaghan operator
waited for break to cut in the cap
tain. driven by the force of the wind,
fairly burst into the little wireless
room.
We'll" be snapped. what is it now?
Have you got the position of the If
vessa?'
Harling shook his head in disgust.
Il can hardly make out what he
says. captain. His sending is awful.
He's Il good operator, too. believe,
only he's lost his nerve completely.
But as nearly as / can make out"-he
listened a moment anXiously-"it's Il
little better now. He says lrvessa,
bound for New York from Porto Rico,
struck reef two hours ago. Don't
know where"
Yes. yes, 1 understand" broke in
the captain impatiently But can't he
give us any idea of his course: Can
