While Robson Barnett was giving an
exhibition in magic in "a theater at
Puunene, Maui, one night last week
he was hit in the head by wax bull
let suffering painful scalp wound
two inches in length and fainting from
shock and loss of blood.
Barnett, who is quite well known in
Honolulu as a hypnotist and magician,
was attempting to emulate the trick,
of one of the old American conjurors
in allowing two revolvers to be loaded,
apparently with leaden bullets, the
weapons given to members of the au-
dience and fred point blank at him.
The feat was to catch the missiles be-
tween his teeth.
OF course, AS in all such acts the
trick consists of the conjuror palming
the marked leaden bullets, substituting
wax pellets and as the weapons are
fired at him to have the lead bullets
appear between his teeth. The act
went well until one of the men with the
" loaded' revolvers pulled the trigger
before receiving the signal and while
too eiose to Barnett. Instead of the
wax being shattered in it's flight to,
ward Barnett, it held intact, struck the
magician on the scalp, as stated, and
for time appeared to have resulted in
a tragedy. Reports received here this
week, however, state that Barnett has
been able to continue his act, though il
is sale to say he is instructing the per
sons who are shooting at him to more
| care fully follow instructions.

Some of the students are taking

Law Requires That Mayor Must
Name Civil Service Board
Appointees This Month.

cit shall be the duty of the mayor
of Honolulu, with the approval of the
board of supervisors, on or before Janu
AIRY ! of each year, to appoint the three
members of the Honolulu Civil Service
Commission. - Thus reads the opening
section of the act passed by the last
legislature creating the body which
passed upon the charges against Ser
geant of Detectives John X. Kellett
last night Beyond this the net does
not state whether or not the present
commissioners shall continue to act in
the event that the mayor takes no
action toward naming their successors.
As result there is considerable spec.
ulation MS to whether Commissioners
Writ, Doyle and Kupihea will be re
appointed to their present positions dur.
ing the next few weeks, whether Mayor
Fern viii forego his privilege of naming
their successors, and if he does the lat
ter, whether the present commission
will continue to hold.
| Even previous to the decision of the
commission in the Kellett ease there
has been an undercurrent of opposition
to the commission, those whose depart
ments have been affected by the iuris
diction given the commission feeling
that their powers have been greatly
curtailed. However, citizens of Homo
lulu in favor of clean government
strongly favor civil service commits
sion, and there is little doubt but
Mayor Fern will exercise his authority
and either reappont the present com
missioncrs or name their SUCCESSOR
some time between now and Decembc
81. The appointments, the law pro
vides, must be approved by the super
visors.
