After continual pressing as to whc.

Much-Indicted Supervisor Saved
His Face and Next Appearance
Will Be in Dock.
Mail Special to The Advertise

(Mai Special to The Advertiser.)
HlLO, December 5.--Last Tuesday,
Supervisor John Kealoha ended his
career as n juror which has caused so
much comment. He did so voluntarily,
claiming the exemption to which he is
entitled under the law as a member of
the board of supervisors. apparently
Kealoha was quite willing to abandon
his position as a juror, as long as he
could do so in "A way which had no con
nection with his conviction in the dis
trict court.
1t was when the case of Filipino
charged with robbery, came up for trial
before Judge Parsons that, as has hap
pened with strange persistency in
most of the cases tried so far, both the
names of Kealoha and of VIM. Lai Hip,
who has also a conviction on county
graft charge against him, were called
to make mp the jury.
As neither the prosecution nor the
defense challenged either of the two
gentlemen, Judge Parsons asked Deputy
County Attorney Heen whether he had
looked up the law to ascertain whether
"A district court conviction, where an
appeal had been taken, could be taken
as disqualification of juror under
the provision of the statute which pre-
vents jury service on the part of a
man who has been convicted of AN of
ense involving moral turpitude.
Heen answered that he had been too
busy to look up this point. He was,
however, under the impression, without
having made careful study, that the
appeal taken by Kealoha would stay the
operation of his conviction as "A dis
| qualification,
No Embarrassment.
The case went on. The jury was
sworn, and a few preliminary questions
had been asked the first witness, when
Judge Parsons asked Kealoha whether
II would not cause him some embarrass
mcnt to sit as a juror in this case to
gether with other jurors, who might
have to sit as jurors in his own case
kealoha replied that he was not sen
sible of any such embarrassment.
At this point Attorney Russell, who
appeared for the defendant, asked that
a recess be taken, and this was granted
When IL WAS over, Russell asked tn,
