TWENTY YEARS FOR
WAIMEA SLASHER

After listening to the evidence
and hearing argument for three days
last week, the jury in the murder
case of Kanda Ikumatsu brought
in a verdict on Friday OF murder
i'll second degree.
Sunday evening, September 13,
there was a drinkfe5t in the labor
er's camp at W1ikai, near Waimea.
Along about 10 o'clock an argu-
mcnt arose, during which the man
Ikumatsu gathered up a "a IL e
knife and started III to do up his
companions. One Sakurai Takizo
was attacked and brutally slashed
his stomach being cut open, breast
cut and deep wounds inflicted on
an arm and a leg. Another man
named NADIA Kanibaro was also
badly cut about the face, but made
his escape. Takizo died a short
time after the cutting.
A. G. Kaulukou appeared for
the defendant and put up a very
strong fight. S. X. Kaeo for the
prosecution. Many witnesses were
examined.
The charge was murder i'll the
first degree, but was modified
to murder in the second degree.
The court sentenced defendant
to imprisonment for not more than
sixty nor less than twenty years.
Inasmuch as he is now about for
ty, he will be quite an old man
when he comes out again.
An unusual side feature develop
ed in this case. Attorney Kaulu-
kou excused all Germans from
serving on The jury OH the ground
that as Germany and Japan were
at war, they might he slightly pre-
judiCed. Attorney Kaeo, follow
ing this suggestion, also excused
Japanese OH the jury, the ground
presumably being the same.

Editor GARDEN ISLAND
In your last issue Of the Car

made that the light on the point
near Nawiliwili had at times not
been lit until a late hour. In
justice to myself I wish to state
thai the light in question is always
lit at the proper time, but some
,times the lamp gets over-heated and
Smokes and obscures the glass;con-
sequently those observing it take
it for granted that there is no light.
The fact of the defectivecondition
of the light wa reported by
me to the department long ago,
and has been reported several
times since.
