Deprived Of his knife, and held cap.

Rican burglar last night drew a gun
on him. forced HE release and escaped
with t9t0 10 loot, with q policeman in
hot pursuit twenty feet behind him
The man robbed was Chung Wal, a
Chinese storekeepor at the corner Of
King aud Punehbowl, opposite the Ka-
waiahao Church, the officer who nearly
but not quite captured him was Robert
Holbron, and the burglar 8 identity is
yet TO be discovered.
About nine clock a call for help
came into the police station, being an
swered by Officer Holbron Of the
bicycle patrol. Just as he approached
the store, which was partially closed
for the night, he heard a scuffie and
saw Porto Riean dart out of the
house and down King street. He imme.
diately started in pursuit and chased
the man into the nearby stables. The
burglar managed TO escape over the
fence in the dark and eluded his
pursuer who at once called for Chief
MeDunic.
McDufie at once took up the case and
traced the mans footprints into the
Territory Stables where trace of him
was lost According to the storekeeper
he was just closing for the night when
the man jumped into the store and
drawing a knife on him demanded his
money. A scuffle ensued in which the
thief got the money and the Chinaman
got the knife. For n moment he was
baI l,,N
on his captor and made his escape just
in time.
Both the Chinaman and Holbron got
good views of the man, who was of
medium height, very black, with a
pock'marked face and supposedly dress
ed in a jumper. Witnesses disagree on
this but all noticed that he was bare.
footed.
Chief McDufiie and his men at once
went TO the Winston Block and through
the places where the Porto Ricans con
gregate About the time the burglary
occurred Chief MeDuffie noticed a Por.
to Rican near the Winston Block an.
swering the description very closely but
is not quite sure whether he was the
man.
Juvenile Thief.
During the day Chief McDufie land.
ed another thief not quite so imposing
as the burglar who was seen last night
seems to be. The capture was none
less than the son of Deputy Sheriff
Jack Fernandez of EVA, who has been
living with his uncle in Palama for
some time.
He is accused of stealing bicycle
from a Japanese and the machine was
found with him. He admits his guilt
and can't for the life of him think
why he did it. His case will be taken
care of in the juvenile court.
Since the capture of Yee Dong You,
"Muumuu," and the recapture Of Chun
Duck Soon, there have been no reports
of burglaries or Of robberies at all,
police records being free of them for
the last two weeks, indicating that the
best of the "profession are safely
slowed away. The two yesterday
are the first Of the kind and are both
unusual.

ters at o'clock or half an hour earlier
than the usual meeting time of the old
board. The building committee had oc-
cupied the chamber for the previous
hour.
With President Eaton in the chair
and Health Officer Brodrick steering the
members in the intricacies of munich
pal sanitariun, the board acted on
number of premises condemned, heard
a brief report of Doctor Mccoy of the
United States marine hospital service
on the present satisfactory state of the
city from the federal governments $
point of view and decided to visit in
sanitary sections of the wholesale dis
trict next Monday to acquaint the men,
bers first hand with sanitation prob
lens and the work done by the depart-
ment.
DR.. Guy Manning appeared before the
session closed and took his seat with
the new body, acting as its chairman
during President Eaton's repeated alb
sences for telephone conferences.
Commissioners Murray and KIimm
inquired zealously of the health officer
If "all the non civil service employees of
the department were included" in the
go day list before them, and Doctor
Brodrick explained that one, Inspector
O'Neil, received s25 from the city and
was not on the list, ONeil being paid
$3.50 day by the federal government
and the $25 extra coming out OF the
special sanitation" appropriation of
the supervisors and not the depart
ments budget.
The explanation appeared to satisfy
the commissioners and after short
pause the board adjourned
