DUNN DEMONSTRATES How
SHOOTING OCCURRED

anyone to stop him from talking,
which drew a retort from Mr.. Craig to
the effect that this would be impos-
sible.
Dunn then told OF the assault upon
him by Hickey in Justice Burrows Of
fee, In which Hickey's heavy cane
was broken. His testimony of this
assault did not differ from that given
by Justice Burrows and Thomas Warn 1
err He said that he had gone to Mr..
Burrows Office for a warrant for Hick-
ey's arrest but was not allowed to tell 4
why the warrant was not issued.
McCoid then asked the witness to
tell how many loaded shells were in
his revolver on the night that the
shooting occurred. Dunn said that
there were four. He had used one
shell in shooting at a tree near
the Des Moines bridge, several weeks
| before.
The witness declared that he had
carried the gun for several weeks
because he had heard OF Hickey's al
legged threats against him and he was
afraid that he would put them into
execution.
/ At this point Judge BanR asked the
attorneys when they wanted to adj
journ and the defense said that they
might possibly use a couple OF hours
more on the defendant Mr.. Miller
asked that the testimony be finished
in order to allow cross examination,
but was overruled by the court. Ad-
journment was taken until nine
o'clock this morning.
Dunn continued his testimony this
morning, finishing with graphic
story Of the actual shooting on Fifth
street. He was asked by Mr. McCoid
to lie on the floor and show the jury
how he was lying when he fired the
shot that went through his leg.
'sWhen walked down Fifth street

! witness, "and when I was a little In

TWO kAMAAINAS
OF MAUI DEAD

WAILUKU, May 1l.-(Maui News) ::
Sunday night, the 9Th, Tam Sing, a
well known Chinese merchant, died
at his home in Makawao Of hemorr-
hage of the lungs. He. was born in
Canton, China, about SO years ago
and came to Makawao thirty-three
years ago as bookkeeper for Tam Yau,
who had established a general store
three years previous. Later Tam Yau,
Tam Sing and Tam Chong formed a
partnership and conducted a thriving
business in Makawao until several
years ago when Tam Sing bought out
his two partners and became sole pro
prietor.
He is survived by a widow and thir-
teen children. He was a member of
the Hawaiian Lodge of Knights of Ply
thias, a delegation of its members be-
ing present at his funeral. Rev. Father
Rodrigues of Paia officiating.
Though Tam Sing did not openly
become a Christian until the night of
his death, his conduct whether in
public or private, in family or bust
ness life seemed always to have been
based upon Christian principles.
VIM. A. Conway Passes Away.
An old and respected resident of
Maui, VIM. A. Conway, died last
Thursday, May 2, at his home in Wal
kapu. About two years ago Mr. Con-
way underwent an operation and since
that time he has never been in robust
health.
Mr.. Conway was born in Hilo in
1850, He was educated in Hilo and
I.ahaina After leaving school he
worked for many years as freight
clerk on the different Inter-Islahd
boats. He was the first lighthouse
keeper at Maalaea Bay, and served
as steamship agent at that point for
IS years.

Features of Honolulu? They crowd
to mind fast. Rain on one side of the
street, sunshine on the other. Daily
rainbows, and occasional night rain
bows. Blazing sun but fresh breezes
and often wind gales. Sea and mast
and husky stevedores. Green trees
and lawns down to the oceans edge,
on the brilliant water outrigger canoes
bobbing about, and surf-riders dash
ing shoreward. An Arabian Nights
wonder of an aquarium exhibiting
great ugly shark and hideous squid
that offer strongest contrast to grace
full small fishes tinted like unto the
rainbow arch before the Koolau noun
tains. Valley after valley cutting the
range that walls Honolulu along the
side opposite the sea. Cloud draped
mountain peaks towering above the
town, ever inviting and challenging
the beholder. Flowers abloom on
numberless trees. Brown-skinned men
wearing hats wreathed with fresh pos
les and ferns. Old Hawaiian crones
and young Hawaiian women sitting
on shaded sidewalks weaving wreaths
and exchanging badinage with tourists
and Jackies. 'Milingtary," enlisted
and commissioned. Representatives Of
races ranging from subject of the car,
from the land of the Great Bear, all
the way to folk from lower Polynesia.
Between these extremes the jostling of
European and Korean, New Highlander
and Filipino, Porto Rican and Chinese,
with now and then a tall, white robed
Hindoo, and swarming everywhere
Japanese men, women and babies.
Children, children, children certainly

with them, the tenements overflow,
automobiles are crowded to capacity
with the rising generation. The world
hears repeated reference to the Ha-
waiians as dying race, but the part
Hawaiians are unquestionably doing
their duty toward populating "The
islands," large families are the rule
with the half-white Hawaiians and
the Chinese-Hawaiians, all about the
