WILL THE LESSON BE LOST?
McGrath is still gone.

McGrath is still gone. ~. i
Against all the explanations which seek to
show there was no laxity in the county Jail
administration, this fact stands significant and
unshakeable- McGrath escaped. He escaped
from an institution where he and his pals were
under only the most perfunctory of suryeil-
lance. %=% lii
The question is, will the McGrath escape and
the subsequent exposure of conditions be lost
as lesson to this communityi Or will there
result the sort of vigorous, fearless and con-
structive action to justify the residents Of Ho-
nolulu in applauding their. officials and saying

ARMY DESERTER
ISARRESTED At
PAHALA. HAWAII

ISpecssl Star Bulletin Correspondence
HILO, Jan. 31.-Quite an unexpect-
ed arrest was made by High Sheriff
Jarrett while he was on Hawaii last
week. A deserter from the United
States army was discovered near Pa
hala, where he had rather thrust HIM
self upon the Hawaiian community
and was doing the beachcombing act
to perfection. The soldier, who was
only a youth, never attempted to do
any work and appeared to be quite
content to wander around, fishing and
swimming most of the time.
For some months the young man led
this kind of life and he appeared to
be quite settled down to loaf for
life" The word was passed around
that a haole was quartered on the
Hawaiians and some people began to
wonder who the stranger was. Final
ly word drifted to Honolulu of the
youths determination to live without
work and the authorities there men
toned the fact to High Sheriff jar
rett when he was leaving for Hilo.
Jarrett thought he would have a
look at the lad and. when Pahala was
reached. had the stranger brought be-
fore him. 1t was at once apparent
that the youth fitted a photograph that
the high sheriff had with him and d
little questioning did the rest. The
deserter owned up to leaving his regi-
ment on Oahusand said he was ready
to go back where beef was to be OBJ
tanned a little more frequently than at
Pahala, where his kind supporters
were rather addicted to fish diet.
The deserter was taken to Honolulu
and turned over to the military author
tiles.

NEWLY-BORN BABY LEFT
IN FIELD BY MOTHER

Especial STAR Bulletin Correspondence
HILO, Jan. 31.-Ccunty Attorney
Beers is investigating most distress
ing case of alleged child abandonment
and he has about decided to put the
matter up to the grand jury.
A young Portuguese girl tells a
strange story of a childbirth that took
place in canefield near her home.
The young mother, when brought to
book after the discovery of the wailing
infant in the canefield, declared that
she thought the child was dead and
left it there.
The county attorney can hardly
credit the story of the girl to the eff
feet that the child was born without
any assistance whatsoever, and that
the mother walked home afterwards
and said nothing about the matter to
anyone. The feeble cries of the baby
attracted the attention of some peo-
pie who live near the canefield. They
at first thought that kitten was in
jured or lost in the cane. A search
revealed the fact that a poor little
oRe-day-old baby was slowly starving
to death.
