kauai TRIPPERS
MAKE PLANSF
THE EXCURSION
Side Trip to Waimea Canyon
Made Easy BY Senator
Knudsen'S Offer

A whole fund Of useful and also
very interesting information about the
island of Kauai was given out this
noon at the Dutch treat lunch a,
Cooke hail. at which prospective ex
cursionists TO the Garden Island got
together to discuss plans for the trip
Senator Eric Knudsen of Kauai and
George S. Raymond, inspector. OF
schools, were the speakers, the form
er going into details of the trip, and
giving some valuable hints as to. what
the tourists should do in their limited
time, and what outfit they should take
along, while Mr.. Raymond spoke OF
the geographical and historical fea
lures OF the island.
The trip, as now planned, offers an
unusual opportunity OF seeing Kauai
at very moderate cost, with special
trip to the Waimea canyon for those
who are not afraid OF a moderate hike
and a night spent in the open. The
tourists viii leave Honolulu late on
the evening of Friday, February IL, on
the Kilauea. Arriving early Saturday
morning at Nawiliwiii, those who wish
to leave the steamer and voyage in
land may do SO, joining the Kilauea
later In the day either at Hanalei or
Wainea. The steamer will proceed
around the windward side Of the is
land, being scheduled to arrive at
Waiamea about 2 p. m. Saturday
At this point the mixers will get
their Innings, the plan being to organ
ize party for an easy climb OF about
eight miles to an altitude Of 5000 feet,
on the high ground above the gorge.
Senator Knudsen offers to have four.
mule wagon at Waimea to transport
the camp kits Of the mixers, and WIN
also furnish supper and breakfast at
Pukupele, the camping place. He fig
ures that If minimum Of Is make
the hike, he can break even at 81
each. This offer vastly simplifies the
proposition for those who ara anxious
to see the canyon. It having been fig
ured previously that everyone would
have to carry his own blankets, grub,
and camp kit. Under the present
plan all that VIII be necessary to
bring will be blankets, a cup, knife,
fork and spoon. and whatever change
of clothing is desired. All this should
be put in stout bag, plainly tagged
with the owners name ana marked
'Waimea canyon trip" A guide will
be. furnished at Waimea and when the
mixers arrive at Pupnkele they viii
find their kits waiting for them and
q. hot supper in prospect The place

craft filed with fuel had been refused

the Newcastle chamber of commerce
had followed the announcement.

DECISION ISDUE
IN AFEN DAYS
Governor to Settle Fight Soon
Between Competing Inter-
eSts on Garden Island

Definite disposition Of the railway
project TO supply transportation for
the Kappa homesteaders on Kauai is
expected within a few days. Cover
nor Pinkham's position was made
plain some time ago to the competing
interests which seek the privilege OF
furnishing the carrying facilities. but
IL Is stated that owing to the fight
between these interests a final settle
ment has been delayed materially,
The governors position probably
will be made clear to the public soon,
the proposition now awaiting only a
legal ruling by the attorney general.
One homesteader who visited Homo
lHIu this week declared the delay
threatened to seriously AFFECT the
land-holders, as they are running
short Of funds and are unable to raise
loans until the future of their pine
apple and cane crops is assured by
these transportation facilities.
After interviewing the governor he
voiced a conviction that the affair
would eliminate satisfactorily to the
homesteaders, with the assurance OF
a railway line on which work can
begin at once.
To gain further detailed informa-
tim on the two railway propositions
the governor sent Superintendent G..
r. Forbes to Kauai last week. That
official inspected both schemes and
submitted his report to the executive

RABID COYOTE
ROAMS STREETS

At / O'Clock this morning consid.

rabid coyote. The animal was first
heard of at the residence Of Jack Da-
Wis, where it walked up on the front
porch and ehewed up the house dog.
From there it went up to the corner
of Bridge and Third streets, where ii
was seen by several men. An alarm was
sounded and Jack Kirwin and Henry
Allen secured shotguns and followe /
the brute down across the bridge, bu:
did not get near enough to it for a
shct, and finally lost track of it in the
vicinity of the Western Pacific round
house.
As the animal neared the bridge, il
was discovered by the Western Pacific
call boy, who was riding back to the
station on his wheel. The coyote saw
the boy at about the same time and
took after him, but the youth whipped
up and made his escape.

RABBIT PLAGUE THREAT
ENED IN EAGLE VALLEY

Eagle Valley is threatened with a rab-
bit plague the coming year, owing tC
the fact that the Indians, who in years
past have kept the numbers down by
their large rabbit drives of the early
fall, failed to have the big hunt this
year, and the country round about Is
overfowing with the bunnies.
The Indians of this section have for
long number of years past owed and
paid allegiance to an Indian chief
whose home is in Alpine county. This
chief, "Cooney" by name, incurred
tho anger of a large number of the
young Indians this year by giving
them certain orders which they con
sidered were infringing upon their
rights, and like the residents of Mex
leo, they arose and told their liege lord
and master to go to that land where
the snowballs never last long. This re
volt of the young Indians reached such
stage that they refused to answer
the call of the chief to gather for the
Zig hunt. and the result was that the
annual hunt was a failure, as less than
twenty per cent of the Indian resi-
dents answered the call
Tn the vicinity of the Indian school
which has long been the main running
grounds of the rabbits and the place
where the Indians have made their
more extensive drives, is now over
run with the bunnies and travellers

animals in dozens along the way.@Car-

GRAND JURY ORDERED TO

Judge Emmett T. Walsh of the dis

sued an order that the grand jury,

investigate the facts connected with
the death of Frank Weber of the gov
ernment reclamation service, which oc-
Cured ON the Walker Lake Indian res
ervation about noon, November 3.
A post-mortem examination of the
body was held in Reno and it was the
opinion of number of physicians that
Weber's death was due to dilation of
the heart caused by strangulation.
Attorney t. E. Kepner of Reno was
retained by Weber's wife to probe the
ease fully. and Alfred Dueking, a rela-
tive of Mrs. Weber, preferred charges
against DIR. Frank Mckinley, Indian
Agent f. C. Ballou and Frank Vipoint,
an Indian who had fight with Weber.
The three accused were exonerated
of blame at a subsequent examination,
but Attorney Kepner decided to carry
the case higher.

CLARK ACQUITTED
ON FIFTH BALLOT

At l.30 O'Clock this morning, after
having been out for two hours, the
brv In the Clark murder trial brought
in a verdict of acquittal
II is understood that five ballots
were taken, the first standing eight
FOR acauittal to four for guilty.
Closing arguments were made at a
NIGHT session of court, by District At
toTnev Powell for the State, and T. J.
u saIter and j. NJ Frame for defend
ant
The verdict meets with popular ap-
proval as for some time there have
been serious doubts in the mind of the
public as to the justice of the verdict
Of guilty returned by the jury at the
first trial This was largely due the
story of the crime as told by Fuller
one Of the men charged with the act
ual shooting, and for whose apprehen-
sion there has been large standing
reward offered by the county most of
the time since the murder was commit
ted
There are two men in Winnemucoa
today TO whom Fuller talked freely of
the tragedy at Boise, Idaho. He stated
that he never went away with Rooney
and never saw that individual after
leaving Dun Glen. After the shooting
he came to Winnemucca, and after
thinking the matter over concluded
tEat, as he had no money with which
e. protect himself, that the best thing
he could do was to 90 away Accord
ingly, he went to Boise, Idaho, where
he remained most of thn time until his
death, which occurred last June. He
claimed that he was not friendly with
either Clark or Rooney, and secuted
the idea of n conspiracy, stating that
had there been anything Of the kind
that Clark would not have mixed mp
with either himself or Rooney. Fuller
claimed that at the time Rooney was
drunk and fred down into the bunch,
not caring who he hit.
It is understood that at the present
time Rooney is in Alaska, and it is pos
sible that he may be brought back and
made to suffer for his wanton act.

That the "Children of the Ghetto ("
is in no. sense sectarian or racial play;

demonstrated forcibly by the fact that

has played on two continents 1t is, in
fact, a world drama of universal ap-
peal to all classes and conditions. 1t
deals with basic things that underlie

play cannot fail to receive in full
measure the interest of nation-w wide
audiences. The William Fox picturiz-
