FENNELL'S
HARD LOT

Liquor License inspector Fennell is
getting roasts HANDED to him from a
lot of people interested in the sale of
liquor, particularly those interested in
the sale of intoxicants after hours and
on Sunday. Fennell, who is a peace
loving man though capable of getting
vexed, is being called names anything
but endearing and, Indifferent as he
endeavors to be, conscious that he is
performing his duty, he nevertheless
finds it a nervous burden to have
heaped upon him the unreasoning re-
Dukes of men who fear they are going
to lose money because they cannot sell
on Sunday
If the old regulations had been re-
ligiously Observed" Fennell remarked
this morning, "the dry Sunday PROPOSE
ton would never have come up. But
there have time and time again been
such violations of the law that the
present arrangement can be taken as
nothing but logical result Out of
certain places people have been seen
on Sunday taking bottles of liquor,
when the law required that drink
should be consumed only on the pre-
misses. Warnings upon warnings re-
suited only in the bald declaration
that it was a lie that any such viola
ton had occurred This is only an
example OF course, the innocent have
to suffer with the guilty in a case Of
this kind, when the restrictions are
made harder, but there would have
been no hardship from the liquor-deal-
ers standpoint if the old rules had
been observed.

midnight was the moment of realiza-

BADKBOY
AT LARGE

Kupuna, the boy outlaw, eleven
years old, once more escaped the po-
lice this morning, giving that deter
mined Chinese officer, Apana the slip.
Kupuna is the Hawaiian lad who
has been getting away with money
in public school buildings and who
was recently on the carpet in Joe
Leafs sanctum. He is naturally
wanted to be sent to the reform
school, if the juvenile court so or
ders, but the police, so far, have not
been able to keep their hands on him
Yesterday he ran from the police
and boarded a train for Waipahu.
When Leal scooted to Waipahu on
his motorcycle he arrived there only
to find that the boy outlaw had re-
turned TO Honolulu This morning
Apana thought he mad him cornered
in a house on Beretania street, but
the wary child slipped through a back
way and is still at large
