had between these two at Boyd.on
recently and Judge Mann charged
Mr.. Tucker with taking advan.
tages of the terms Of the debate, in
that he introduced new matter in
his closing speech without giving

ply. No more joint discussions
have been held, but on Tuesday,

tactics, and instead of devoting all
his time to his own record, which
had been repeatedly attacked by
Mr.. Tucker, be devoted consider
able part Of his speech to dissect.
ing Mr.. fuckers record, Judge
Mann prsfaced his attack with tie
statement that he had hoped to
conduct the present campaign as
four years ago, without attacking
anybody or having to defend his
record, but that Mr.. Tucker had
forced him to abandon this course.
Judge Mann's attack was an an
alysis of Mr.. fuckers record for
eight years following 1895 in
which he attempted to prove by
documents that Mr.. Tucker had
not only sulked but had actually
aided the Republicans.
Judge Mann then undertook to
prove that Mr.. Tucker was quite
willing to swallow 10 to if be

that he could not be, he withdrew
and claimed thst he couldn't stand

charges be quoted from newspaper
reports, card in newspaper, let
ters from individuals, etc.
Mr.. Fucker replied Monday at
Harrisonburg to Judge Mann's at

that he was glad to see that Judge
Mann in his Buckingham speech
had changed his views with refer

HAU TREE BORE
DREADFUL FRUIT

1t was a gruesome spectacle which
met the gaze of James G. Spencer in a
secluded portion of his residence
grounds in Nuuanu valley yesterday
morning when his attention was called
to the body of man hanging from a
limb of hau tree. That the man was
dead was evidenced by the odor and
a closer examination disclosed the fact
that, the dead man had been swinging
from the end of the rope for many
days, possibly week.
The police were notified and officers
cut the body down and had it removed
to an undertaking parlor, coroner g
jury viewing the remains as they hung
between sky and earth. Examination
showed that it was japanese but
there was nothing on his person to in
dictate his identity.
Some boys looking for apples entered
the. woods in the rear of Mr.. Spencer s
premises. They detected an unpleasant
odor and going as far as tn hau tree
they were horifd to see a body swing
ing to and fro. They Immediately mott
fed Mr.. Spencer The man s feet were
about a foot and half from the
ground. The position of the body in,
dicated that the suicide had climbed the
tree, tied the rope to limb and then
dropped.
