The surveys for the projected work
have all been completed and the ma
terial for the construction will be or
dered at once, according to Superin-
tendent J. ~ s. Williams, of the Ka-
hului railroad He states that it will
be but a short time before the actual
construction work will be commenced
and that it is expected that the work
will be complete ed in about year.
Neil Boyle and several Portuguese,
all settlers on the Kaiwiki tract, testi-
fed in regard to the residence of the
respondent. Their testimony was
mainly of a negative character. They
claimed that they had not seen Hen
derson on his place more than once
or twice a week or so; that they had
not seen a light in his house at times,
and so forth. 20 offset this the re-
spondent brought out the fact that
the witnesses were in the habit of
going to roost with the chickens and
that Henderson,, might very well have
returned to his homestead after the
hour when they had retired, particu-
larly as he, after his work, took his
dinner at the plantation boarding
house before starting for the home
stead
The real sensation followed, how
ever, after the case had been closed
for the filing of briefs on both sides.
It was sprung by Deputy Attorney
General Smith, who announced orally
that he intended to make motion for
the reopening of the case on the
grounds that he had just discovered
some very material testimony. This,
he said, was based on a statement
made by J. A. M. Osorio, the we'll
known merchant, to the effect that
at the time when Henderson was
supposed to reside on his homestead,
he had been curious to know whether
he really did or not In order to sat
isfy his curiosity he had plugged the
keyhole in the Henderson house with
putty, and the putty had remained
in place for about three months.
kona Mosquito Campaign.
HILO, Nov. 17-Kona is to have a
mosquito campaign of her own. The
news was brought to Hilo this week
by Thomas White, the president OF
the recently formed Kona Improve
ment Club, who said:
I'VE are going to start our mos
quito campaign as soon as we have
good dry spell. When we have a
dry spell all the standing water,
which might harbor mosquito wrig-
glers, evaporates, and as conss-
quence we can kill off the pest by
paying attention to the tanks, cisterns
and other artificial containers. This
we will do, and at the same time tin
cans and similar rubbish will have
to go.
THE work we will do ourselves,
that is, the Improvement club, in just
the same manner as we handled the
district at the time of the typhoid
epidemic The executive committee
of the club takes full charge, and the
members OF the club are each given
a certain district which they are re-
sDonsible for. This they must inspect
and have cleaned, and every evening
they must make a report to the presi-
dent, who directs the campaign. We
have in this manner formed a very
useful and efficient organization, and
/ believe that we will use it in ex-
actly the same form in carrying out
our mosquito campaign"
