Nowhere was there a house wis ible save her own, big red-roofed farm house home.

case of the murder of person at Mana
Hawaii in which case 1 rendered a
bill approved by the coroner for ten
dollars.
Il beg to call your attention to the
fact as interpreter 1 was occupied two
days in this case and that the standard
rate is five dollars per day, and further
that | made no charge for necessary
transportation from Honokaa to Mana
which should have been paid by the
county. The five dollars you so gen.
erously allowed me for services worth
twenty FIVE 1 will not accept.
THE bill is still ten dollars; allow
me to contribute this sum to the much
needed repairing of the roads on your
long suffering island.
1.-The case in which I acted as inter-
prefer was probably one of murder in
needed in the gravest possible emer-
gency for the enforcement of the law,
as it would have been quite impossible
for the island police officers to have
handled the case without a Japanese
interpreter, and under the law an
American citizen must have been en-
ployed if available.
Permit me to congratulate the board
on the spirit of economy shown in the
attempted saving of the five dollars
which really resulted in the saving of
ten (for I could collect ten If chose)
and l hope the ten dollars will be
large enough to fill some one of the
many chuck holes in the roads of
South Hilo over which may have to
travel in future and which are as much
disgrace to your honorable board as
consider your action to me in con-
nection with this murder case.
"In conclusion allow me to say that
l consider it almost an insult to my
intelligence that ] should take the
time under the circumstances to write
communication on this subject to
such bunch of savages.
Thanking you one and all for the
grand opportunity to give ten dollars
to road improvement in Hawaii, l beg
. to remain with profound respect,

BRITISH ship
ON The REEF

The British ship Celtic Chief, Cap
tain Jones, from Hamburg, with fer
tilizer consigned to the Hawaiian
Fertilizer Company, is aground on
the reef between Honolulu and Ka-
lihi harbOrs.
Shortly after o'clock yesterday
afternoon she arrived off port, with
several other vessels, and was anx-
ious to make the harbor before night
fall. This accounts for her coming
dangerously close to the snore.
Not having an opportunity to en-
ter the harbor before darkness she
was Obliged to remain Eoutside. She
case her mudhooks off Palawa, just
northwestward of what Is known as
the "Miowera reef" where the S. s.
Miowera, or Weary Mar" went
aground long ago, and early this
morning she dragged her anchors and
drifted to the coral bed where she is
at present hard and fast.
The Inter-Island steamships Ma
Ina Kea and Mikahala, the Matson
Intrepid, and the Young Brothers
launch tug Hukihuki are pulling on
her for all they are worth, and dur
ing the morning they moved her
twenty feet, so that there is hope OF
her finally being pulled off,
Heayily-laden, it lis believed that
she has burrowed a cradle for herself
in the coral.
