WITH HEAD Erect
MURDERER HEARS
DEATH Sentence
PAX Chi Ser, Who Killed Wife,
May Hang After Expiration
of Fourteen Days

at is the judgment and sentence of
this court that you suffer the death
penalty" ~. p. s.. .~ =. .
Circuit Judge Ashford this morning
for the first time in his career pro.
nounced a sentence Of death. PAX Chi
Ser, tile Kofesn who was found guilty
of having murdered his wife in Liliha
street the night of May "a, stood with
head erect as the sentence was inter.
preted to him. There was faint
smile on his lips, but he said nothing.

ed, PAX Chi Ser will hang after two
weeks have expired. The court has or.
dered that the execution be at Oahu
Prison. The time of the execution will
be fixed in the governors warrant,
which will be executed by Acting Gov.
ernor Wade Warren Thayer, Governor
Pinkham being absent from the terri
tory. .RT2"
Statements of counsel and the court
regarding the case, and the sentencing
Of the defendant, consumed little more
than rs minutes. Judge w. J. Robin
son, who defended the Korean: had
nothing to say. A. NJ. Brown, deputy
city and county attorney, asked that
the death penalty be imposed. e@
PAX Chi Ser said he had no reason
TO offer why sentence should not be
pronounced against him. His head was
bowed when he made this state
ment through an interpreter. A.
''As you have been found guilty of
murder in the first degree" said Judge
Ashford, the law provides death as
the punishment II is well that you,
as we'll as others, understand that in
cases OF this kind the court has no
discretion. II must impose sentence
of death and no other. 49,. =
The judge particularly at time
like this is but an instrument Of the
law; he is merely cog in the machin-
cry OF Justice. and must act without
any discretion whatever.
You will understand that in impos-
ing sentence on you, the judge of this
court is not acting upon his own wolf
ton, but as the mouthpiece of justice
and society in general. ...- - .=
you appear to have had the idea
that your wife was unfaithful, and,
instead of bringing the matter before
the courts, you took matters into your
own hands and became prosecutor,
judge, jury and executioHer." ~.
At this juncture PAX Chi Ser,
through an interpreter, told the court
that he had tried to get information
from the court, but that John Woo, an
Interpreter, had told him there was
no law which would remedy his trou-
BILE. The court replied that this state
ment evidently did not have weight
with the jury and that the jury did
not believe that Woo had given such
information to anyone. r. s..T.
You know that Woo or anyone else
had no right to give you license to
butcher and murder your wife," added
the court.

OYSTER SEASON DELAYED.
Warm Weather Deters Vessels Own.
ers From Bringing Supplies.

Warm weather is responsible for tarr
diness in opening the oyster season at
this city, and the dealers at the 18th
street wharf do not look for the arrival
of oyster-laden boats in any numbers
before Ncoler temperature comes. Since
Wednesday last, when the longing sea
son opened on the river and the run
boats could obtain cargoes from the
natural beds, there have been about
half dozen oyster-carryIng boats IN
port.
The demand for the bivalves has been
light and one or two of the vessels LETT
here with a portion of their cargoes
still aboard. The oysters will be taken
down river and planted to remain until
the market becomes brisk with cold
weather Late yesterday afternoon
there was one vessel at the wharf, and
she had only about a hundred bushels.

shocking houses from Norfolk, Girls

According to the dealers. the water
melon season is over and should an
other watermelon laden vessel arrive
it will cause surprise. Usually the sea-
son for melons extends into October
This season, however, the melons on
the eastern shore did not mature prop
erly. and this caused a premature end
ing of the season.

Mosquitoes, the kind that work double

Capt. John Neitzy and his companions
giving up a fishing trip to Potomac
creek and other tributaries of the river
and returning home. About a week ago
Capt. Neitzy with three others left here
aboard the power launch Benjamin n,
intending to spend about a month down
the river after black bass. They found
the fish fairly plentiful in Potomac
creek, and were making good catches
when the mosquitoes, little black fell
lows, began getting in their fine work.
For every fish bite they got on their
lines, they received a thousand on
their bodies. Night and day the pests
worked, and citronella. tobacco smoke,
coal oil and all other preventives had
no effect on them. The mosquitoes
fairly danced in the air with delight
when citronella was used. and coal oil
only made them more hungry. They
bit through clothing and worked their
way through the meshes of netting
until Capt. Neitzy and the others con-
Guided it was time to move other

the mosquitoes were just as bad, and at
last in self-defense they returned home
Yesterday. They brought back with
them seventy-five bass and several
thousands welts left by the mosquitoes
