Embargo on
Fruit Pau

w. M. Clifford, president of the
Board of Agriculture and Forestry,
was a visitor to Waikiki during the
week. Mr.. Clifford came up on the
Claudine on Tuesday morning and
returned to Honolulu by the same
steamer on Wednesday afternoon.
While on Maui Mr.. Clifford visited
Lahaina, Kahului and Wailuku,
investigating the fruit-hy situation,
There are plenty of fruit.hies all
over Maui.
At the meeting of the trustees of
the Maui Chamber of Commerce,
which was held on Wednesday
afternoon, in the county Office, Mr..
Clifford sought for an expression of
opinion from the chamber as to the
abolition of the embargo against
the importation of fruit from the
other islands to Maui. AS there is
no restriction regarding the ship
ping of fruit from Maui, and as
Maui is a hot-bed of fruit-hy, no
objection could be made to the pro-
position of opening the doors to
fruit from the rest of the group
The chamber went on record as
feeling that way about it, and the
secretary was advised to write let
ter to that effect to the Board Of
Agriculture.

Especial Correspondence. ]

HONOLULU, May 30.-It is re-
corded that Father Rougier and the
Princess Cecile are to leave on the
Sierra, unless legal obstacles he put
in the way of the father who seems
to be too much attached to riches
to devote much time to his religion.
When he came here months ago he
asked and received permission to
say mass but, during his present
visit, he his made no such request
and it is doubted that such one
would be honoled by the Bishop of
this diocese. 1t seems that Father
Rougier went out to the Southern
islands when he was Il much young
,er man; surely he must have had
his first charge there for he is still
a young man, though his whiskers
make him look much older. In
Belgium he has a family and one of
his brothers, it is said, is in holy
orders and may be, by this time a
priest. His parents live IN Belgium
or France and, but for mishap
would now be living in the South

Puunene Out
Of Contest

When the different tennis clubs
heard of the offer of the H. A,
trophies for a championship
doubles contest, to be played on
the Kahului earth court, the direc-
tors got busy and held meetings.
The Kahului club decided to ap-
point +. r. Bevins to represent
them on the general committee of
management, and the Paia club
selected Stanley Richardson. The
Puunene club decided not to enter
any teams for the tournament as
the members think that a handi-
cap doubles would be better than a
scratch affair.
The general opinion seems to be
that Richardson and Myers are too
strong for any other team that
might enter. That being the case,
it might be better to have a handi-
cap doubles tournament, say a lot
of the players.
The August Harvest Festival at
Puunene is coming along soon,
and the players want to get
all the practice they can manage,
in order to be in condition whe Il
the big day comes.

Kills Friend
Then Suicides
Grim Tragedy on Mountain Side
Two japanese Dead and
One Wounded.

Once again has the big mountain
claimed human sacrifice and this
time two men have been killed and
another wounded. Two japanese
are dead, one murdered and the
other a suicide, and still one other
man is in the hospital where the
doctors are busy patching him up.
The tragedy took place last Sunday
evening and the scene was laid at
Pulehu, Kula.
From what can be learned from
the wounded man, it appears that
he and another Japanese named
Matoba Shigitaro were packing some
shingles from a shed to their house
when they were accosted by Uraya-
ma, who was carrying a single barrel
shot gun. The man with the weap-
on stopped the two men and, in a
rage asked why they had disgraced
him.
Both the men denied that they
had, in any way, said anything
about their friend. That statement
seemed to annoy him more, and
he declared that he knew that the
other men had said something about
him. Then, raising his gun, he
fired, point blank, into the face
of Matoba, who fell to the ground
dead. The charge of shot made a
hole straight through the mans
head and his death was quick and
painless.
Kamo Ujiro ran away as fast as
he could travel. The murderer
calmly threw the empty shell from
his gun, reloaded the weapon, and
took pot shot at Kamo. The
charge caught the fleeing man in the
back and no less than thirteen
pellets entered his body.
Kamo did not fall to the ground,
and he continued his way TO where
he could get assistance. He notified
the police who, after sending him
to the Kula Sanitarium, set out
after the murderer.
Sheriff Crowell was informed of
the tragedy. through deputy Nor
ton, and he at once started off on
hunt for the murderer. The hunt
was not long one, however, as
when the home of the murderer was
reached, he was found dead on the
floor of his bedroom. The man
had laid down, placed the muzzle
of the gun under his chin, and had
then pressed the trigger with his toe.
An inquest was held on Thursday
and verdict of murder and suicide
was returned by the coroner's jury.

AFTER RICHES

A long time ago parishioner of
the padre, owner of much land, de-
cided that he wanted a regular in
come from some source and was
willing to give land in return. His
holdings consisted of an island
known to mariners as Washington
Island and, while not located on
the maps in the school biographies,
was on the charts of the southern
waters. For a small sum per month
during life, the owner of the island
was willing to assign his interest to
the good father who had found Joy
in administering to the spiritual
welfare of the people with whom he
made his home. The island looked
good to Father Rougier-so did the
deal, and the change of ownership
followed. The soil of the island
was rich and there was abundant
opportunity for tilling it to advan-
