FAKE MINISTER
GIVEN YEAR
INJAIL

J. VI. Mokuula. the aged Hawaiian
plant by Attorney General Lindsay
and accused of attempting to obtain
money by fraud, was given a final
hearing in Circuit Judge Robinson's
court on appeal this morning, and
sentenced TO a year in prison.
Mokuula for years has been pic
turesque character in Honolulu. On
New York CIty's lower East side he
would have been known as "sChnor-
rer" Attorney General Lindsay, in
more direct Anglo-SeXon. referred to
him in court this morning as gen
tie CRATER" But perhaps the best
description was given by Mokuula,
when asked by the court this morn
ing as to his occupation. Through an
interpreter. he replied:
I'm an evangelist; | preach to the
young and unwary and unsuspecting
to fleece them"
Several times in the last few years
he has been convicted in the district
court on various charges, usually lar
ceny, and sent to Jail. He was sent
to the reef once a number Of years
ago by Judge Lindsay, when the latter
was sitting as district magistrate.
Imagine the Attorney Generals sur
prise. one day last August when the
same individual, CARRIED in the cleri-
cal cloth, appeared at his oftice ask
ing a donation to a new church. Mo-
kuula exhibited a book, in which a
number of names of prominent local
churchmen were inscribed in many
shades of ink and with lead pencil,
purporting to show that these had
subscribed various sums toward the
alleged religious enterprise.
Knowing the man, Lindsay was i'm
mediately skeptical, and on general
principle telephoned for the police.
After his arrest, and in court today
Mokuula admitted the names in the
little book were all inserted by him.
self. ...
He explained he had gone to Lind
say, knowing the latter had once sent
him to Jail merely to test
him out and see if he still had
a grudge" against Mokuula. He said
he didn't intend to take any money.
Lindsay admitted he hadn't offered
to give Mokuula money! .:
The district court had sentenced
the prisoner four months, but Judge
Robinson raised it to the maximum,
after hearinsihis candid confession of
crookedness as a life occupation. 1t
was stated in court that Mokuula has
for years lived on the generosity of
religious people in Honolulu, by ex-
tracing coin from them for various
fake church and missionary enter
prises. ...~- 49,.

cording to a story told by those who

ing SIS for a man to relieve him are
said to have written his brother-in-
law in California. This brother.in-
law, it is reported, sent to u. S. Dis
trict Attorney Breckons copy of the
original marriage certificate which
reached Honolulu only a short time
before the man was arrested.
1t is understood that the man has
confessec, in part at least, after hay-
ing been confronted with the informa-
ton secured as to his past. He was
released on his own recognizance and
will appear before Commissioner
Davis for a hearing tomorrow morn
ing. His second wife; who is a POrtu-

Services at the Methodist Church

There were fairly good congrega-
tions at last Sundays services,
though there were several vacant
seats whose usual occupants have
not yet gone to Heaven. Those
absentees were missed by both pastor
and people and we shall be both
happy and helped if these are pres
ent at next Sundays services, We
are sorry when you can't be with
us and always look for your coming
again.
The Sunday school attendance
was good. There were one hundred
and six present. Several of the
boys and girls assisted in the church
services, rendering special song
which all enjoyed. Mrs. Bickley's
class of young ladies easily won
the banner. The class will organize
next Sunday and promises to be-
come one of the very best classes IN
this part Of tie state. The "We
Brothers" class of boys made the
best record in the school last year
and are hopeful and hustling to
capture the laurels this year.
Other classes will be mentioned
next week for we certainly have
some more good ones.

In order to try to excuse Senator

In order TO try to excuse Senator
jeff Davis, whom everybody knows
is dear lover of booze, his friends
are charging that former Congress
man Brlndidge, his opponent, is
also drinking man. This charge
is false. Mr.. Brundidge is strictly
temperate man. Persons who
have known him for many years
state that they never saw or heard
of him being drunk. We have the
names Of all the ministers of the
different churches at Searcy, as well
as the circuit Judge of that circuit
and many other high officials Of
that county who have testified to
the fact that Mr.. Bruudidge was
never known TO drink to excess.
If this statement is doubted by any
one the names of as many witnesses
as may be wanted can be
obtained at this office. Charges
like this against Mr.. Brundidge
will only serve to make him more
popular than he now Is.
