by it out from his cell and prison
bounds.
1t is known that he fought the wan
lderlust manfuIly. He tried to do all
he could to stifle it. He didn't wish to
take an unfair advantage of the nap
! ping guards, or even the vigilant ones.
| In fine, he wanted to do the right
thing by all concerned. But the wan
jderlust-it is all-powerful. One time,
alas the timel-one time he offered TO
give up his trade as iail-breaker, and
show noble consideration for his keep
Iers; he agreed to break from his cell
no more If they would only make him
Ia rusty But they didn't. They didn't
understand the genius of Chun Duck
Soon, and its requirements. With
rain and place to wander in, he
would have been happy, no doubt, and
lived to a ripe old age.
But Just as a teacher misunder-
stands her mischievous pupil, so the
Ijail authorities misunderstood Chun.
Certainly, they regret it now, and see
the error of their ways, but it is too
late. The Korean is angered because
they would not make him trusty.,
and so he is not going to let McDuffie
catch him. The police officials, not
realizing this. state that the fugitive
will be a prisoner within few hours.
In the meantime, McDuffie is off for
little jaunt to China to care for the
wants in transit of Carlos Roberto
Sanchez. the prisoner who is being re-
turned to Shanghai. 1t may be that
McDuffie, as he is sailing across the
Pacific, will get an idea regarding how
he can capture Chun; but then again
but then again-he may not.
Honolulu star-bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1912-2010, 1913-09-11

Chun Duck Soon, J. B., is expected
to be caught before another night
passes. Chief of Detectives McDuffie
has taken an active part in the hunt
| for the jailbreaker and is keeping a
sharp watch on the leading hotels and
clubs and other places where the sons
Of the helplessly rich congregate. The
police have secured by this time an
abundance of clews which. though inn
peding their pursuit of the fugitive
Korean, have furnished them with
many excellent motor rides.
The fact that the clews so Gar OBJ
tanned have failed to bring about the
capture of Soon has not discouraged
the police. But, on the other hand. it
has been rather trying on the fugitive
himself. Being a true sportsman, he
longs for opponents IL not worthy Of
his steel at least worthy OF his hunt.
No question has been raised as to
where the Korean is. Positive infor-
nation has been received that he is
now camped at Koko Head, Kalihi,
Waikiki, Kahuku, Manoa. Eva, Pearl
Harbor and Haleiwa; and expects to
remain there indefinitely tenure to
be determined by the weather. For
Chun Duck Soon, as his middle name
connotes, likes wet weather.
He has natural longing to be in
wet weather. One reason for his re-
peated Jail breaks is said to be duetto
the fact that the prison was more or
less rain-proof. Though this reason
may have had something to do with it.,

the fact that white streets and fields

mas. there is the great benefit that
comes to the worker of no trade or
profession. who must be content to pick
up an odd job here and there. 1t may
seem a small thing, but in the work
and trade of the world it counts vastly
in the aggregate. Many men whose
daily occupation leads them into the out
doors may be idle, but they can afford
the brief vacation. They have been
working all year and will be better for
the rest. There are other men, forced
to idleness by the coming of winters
cold but snowless days, who now can
work for a few hours. The community
and it's individual citizens are hiring
men to dig through the drifts. And these
are the men who at this season need
the work, even though it be of short
duration. Consider the man who comes.
