Ben Kaluna, who shot and killed his
wife last June, was sentenced to life
Imprisonment at hard labor, by Cir
cult Judge Cooper this morning. In
sanity and drunkness would have
been the defenses had the case come to
trial. Already Attorney George A.
Davis had discovered a sister of the
murdered to be an inmate of the asy-
lum, and had evidence that the defend
ant was drunk, was afraid he was a
leper and had a long record of mental
worries to fall back upon. The pro-
secution agreed to accept a plea of
guilty of murder in the second degree
and Kaluna duly pleaded and was SEN
fenced.
Deputy Attorney Milverton told the
court that after consultation with the
attorney general, it had been decided
that the best course was to accept a
plea of guilty in the second degree,
rather than prosecute for murder in
the first degree. At the same time,
he said, both the county attorneys de-
partment and the attorney generals
department felt that if such a plea
were accepted, the penalty should be
the maximum,-life Imprisonment.
After this it took but few minutes
to send Kaluna to the reef for the rest
of his natural life.
Davis said he had made careful in

The figures of the local internal re-

CHANGE Of
INSURANCE AGENCY

The Sun Life Insulane Co., of Cana
da has decided to open a BranchOf-
flee for the Islands of the Pacific, with
Head Quarters in Honolulu. The
Company has been represented by Bis
hop & Co, for many years, and under
their representation it's business has
grown to such an extent as to warrant
the opening of Branch Office by the
Company, it's policy being to appoint
its own managers in agencies where
the business warrants it.
The Company is now the largest
Life Company in Canada, and is well
known in many countries of the Globe.
It's reliability and profit paying quail
ties are excelled by none, and slocal
policyholders will undoubtedly be
pleased to learn that its business here
is such as to warrant the above
change.

Same Attorney
For And Against

This morning Attorney T. NJ. Harri-

half of one K. Goto, against Mr.. X.
Goto, charging desertion. About an
hour later Attorney T, NJ Harrison
filed Mrs. Goto's answer, formally con-
testing the case ana leaving the libel
liant to his proof. No name of coun-
sci appears on the answer, and the do
cument bears every evidence of having
been prepared in the same Office as the
complaint.

keeps up in the circuit court, and the

"How far these pleas would go with

Judge Cooper proceeded to take the
defendants plea and to inform him
that if he pleaded guilty the sentence
within the discretion of the court
might be life Imprisonment. A plea
of guilty was entered and the maxi
mum sentence imposed.
Kaluna shot and killed Julia Kala-

Since they began to appear sharp

Kong was arrested by Sheriff Saffery

Lee Kong has served a term before,
for a similar offense. The coins this
time, however, are much better than
those made before His plant, it is
said, was at Hama.
United States Marshal Hendry and
District Attorney Breckons returned
this morning on the CIaudine, after in
vestigating the case on Maui. They
made a quick trip, leaving yesterday
morning on the Mauna Kea and catch
ing the Claudine at Lahaina at mid
night, after crossing over to Wailuku
and getting in touch with the sheriff.
AS the prisoner was at Hama, he was
not brought back. Both officials will
