TOT LEADS CHASE
FOR COURT CLERK

SCENE: Front entrance to the
county building.
TINE: Last Tuesday.
A little Hawaiian girl, ag d
about 12, had been BROUGHT from
Hanalei to be sent to the Girl s IN
dustrial School, at Honolulu. She
was in the waiting auto, and kind
ly Judge Dickey was talking to
her, while the court clerk went in
to the building to get certain pa
pers. Upon sight of the clerk
(Mr, Dean) returning, the mite of
humanity bounded from the ma
chine and started running tull
speed down the driveway toward
the street.
What is she doing ?' gasped
Dean.
From my viewpoint calm
" observed the court, 4 should
say that sh- is exercising'
Exercising nothing!" blurted
out tine now excited Dean. That
girl is making her get-awav.'
Bv that time the girl had reach
ed the road and turned down to-
ward the Fairview, increasing her
speed, if anything. Dean did not
wait for the courts answer, but
gave chase. There was some live
ly exercising" down the road un-
til Dr.. Derby's office was passed
when the girl bounded over the
stone wall into the field OF Young
cane and began negotiating it with
the agility of a scared hare.
The chase led several hundred
yards across the field to a point
opposite the wireless Office, when
the girl turned a II d doubled
back through the cane, When
she reached the road again oppo-
site THE GARDEN ISLAND build
ing the almost breathless minion
of the law was close behind her.
On the road a machine, occupied
by travelling salesman, was lust
stan ting up. The girl gave one
bound and landed in the seat by
the drummer" at the same time
pleading that he take her away.
The villain still pursued her, "
however, and the girl, after being
talked to in a kindly way, con-
sented to go to the home of Mr.,
Deans mother. What the latter
said to her is not stated, but in a
short time she was quite will
ing to go to Honolulu, and left IN
the steamer that afternoon, accom-
panied by Mr.. Dean, who saw her
comfortably located in the Oahu
school
An impressive feature of this
particular case is that the girl is
by no means wavward, but a cruel
fate has made Of her a dependent

NINETEEN YEAR
LAD HAS RECORD

If you were a judge and there was
brought before you 19-year-old boy
who had committed five burglarieS
and had been sentenced to Jail on
three of the charges. what penalty
would you infliCt as punishment on
the fifth CHARGE
This is the problem which confront
ed Circuit Judge Ashford today. Jo-
seph Lula, Hawaiian, was before the
court. Lula now is serving three sep
arate sentences which are running
conCurrently. the longest being three
years. While working with gang OF
prisoners in the Capitol grounds the
ether day Lula sneaked off, entered
house at Hotel and Likelike streets
and stole a lot of jewelry, thereby
committing his fifth burglary Oftense.
Lula began his criminal career by
stealing, and this brought him a term
at the reform school. He escaped
from the reform school, later return
ing and breaking into the place,
where he secured some food, clothes
and money. Following tnis he COM
mitted three other burglaries.
Judge Ashford sentenced Lula TO
serve six months at hard labor IN

(Sp6claI SCar-bullet1n EOrreSpOud6nCe)
WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. Sec
retary Daniels of the navy is looking
with longing eyes in the direction of
Hawaii. He has in no degree recov-
cred from the disappointment expert
enced when the European war broke
forth and the Panama canal kicked
up it's heels, precipitating a landslide,
thus preventing him from bringing the
Atlantic fleet around to the Pacific
coast, and continuing on to Honolulu
with a division of the biggest battle
ships. His disgust at the untoward
events which thwarted his visit was
so great at one time that he abandon
ed all hope of making the journey.
Now he has caught his second wind
and is looking to grab the trip on the
rebound
AS a matter of cold-blooded fact
Secretary Daniels is even at this min
ute figuring on going out to Honolulu
next summer. taking with him divis-
ion of fighting ships through the big
ditch at Panama. He believes that
perhaps the European war may melt
away or simmer down, and that he
can slip across the Pacific before the
national campaign for the selection of
a President begins to make the dust
fly. 1t is his idea that between the
holding of the great party conventions
and the windjamming period, preced-
ing the November elections, an oppor
tunity may be afforded for paying the
visit on which his heart was set this
yeaT
This calculation would bring the
naval secretary to Honolulu at ap-
proximately the same date as was
fixed this summer He would plan to
leave Hampton Roads about the mid
die of July and return to the East
along toward the 18th of September,
thus allowing two months for his Of
ncial vacation.
In addition to possessing a desire
to meet all the good people of Ha-
vail the feeling is entertained by Sec
Ietary Daniels that it is his duty as
head of the naval establishment to
inspect the great naval and marine
base being built up near Honolulu.
Since he became a member of Presi-
dent Wilson's cabinet the utmost in
terest has been manifested by Mr..
Daniels in the Pearl HarbOr drydock
and the Qualifications being arranged
for it's proper defense and protection.
He would like to see with his own
eyes what progress is being made and

DOUBLE MURDER
IN MANOA HOME
IS new Theory
Stainless Knife Found BY Sup
posed Suicide; Bloody Blade
in Front of House
SEVENTEEN YEAR OLD
WIFE DIES FROM CIT
Disconnected Statements of
HystericaI, Drink BefuddIed
Witnesses Disagree

Hard at work on a new clue in the
case of the double death in Manoa
valley, where 19-year-old Ella Long
+afd his 17-year-old wife were stabbed
to death at their home at $50 last
night, the police expect to show that
there were two murders, instead of a
murder and a suicide as was at first
expected.
The chief new clue is knife which
was found under the body of Ella
Long. a knife which had not stain
of blood on it, while the bloody knife
was found in front of the house 10
feet from the bottom of the steps. This
upsets the original theory which was
supposed to be true after the casual
evidence gathered from witnesses last
night at the scene of the murders. At
first the police believed Long murder
ed his wife and then stabbed himself
to the heart.
Disconnected statements of witness
es last night we're that Agnes, the
young wife, had run from her bed
room screaming for help, and had
rushed down the path outside the
house, bleeding from a great cash In
