K0LOA CH|NAMAN
HANGS HIMSELF

About three O'Clock Monday
morning the body of Nah Fie, Chi
nesc, aged 40, a poi FOUNDER and
pork seller of Koloa, was found
hanging to a rafter in the room
occupied by him.
DR.. Watcrhouse, who was sum-
moned promptly to the scene, de-
cided that death had occurred two
or three hours earlier. Deputy
Sheriff Henry Blake empancllcd a
coroncr's jury and suicide was given
as the cause of death.
Nah Fic used opium to excess
and was a chronic gambler Sun
day he was out making his rounds,
selling pork and collecting for it..
He took in S22.75. On his way
home he reached a place in which
gambling was going on and the
temptation to increase his fortune
was too great for him. In place of
winning, however, he lost all of the
money he had collected.
Arriving back at his place of busi-
ness he confessed to his immediate
employer to having gamblcd all of
the days collections away, and re-
ceived severe rebuke for it.
About midnight the men in the
poi factory appeared for work
cooking taro and making poi. Nah
Fie did not show up. After about
three hours the other men became
alarmed and went to his ROOM, to
find him hanging dead as above
stated.

POLICE ARE AFTER
KALALAU BURGLAR

Within the past three weeks the
house of a native named Kelau, in
Kalalau valley, was burglarized
Dried fish. pots and pans and Il 81
calibre revolver were taken. The
loss was discovered when the Ha-
waiian returned to his house last
Tuesday.
About year ago a japanese with
long hair was seen fishing in a
stream in Kalalau valley, not far
from the house of Kclau. Inasmuch
as practically all bona tidc residents
of the valley are known, the sus-
picious of Sheriff Rice were directed
toward this mysterious japanese.
Moreover, h G suspects that the
prowler may be Kanemoto, a Japa-
ncse who murdered his wife at Ma
kawcli three years ago, and disap-
peared.
The sheriff detailed five police
men and specials on the case and
they went into Kalalau valley We'd
ncsday morning and spent two days
in the search. The valley is so dense
ly wooded and overgrown with shub-
berry that it was impossible to see
more than few feet in any drec-
ton. The search was rendered all
the more difficult by rain, which
was almost constant.
Sheriff Rice states that the police
will continue their search as long as
there is any hope Of finding the
mysterious japanese suspect, and
of locating the burglar OF the Kelau
home.

Sometime ago mention was made IN
this paper of the fact that nomination
application blanks had gotten mix
ed in the Office of the county clerk,
so that all of the candidates receiv-
ed mon partizan" blanks in place
of Republican or Democrat. The
county clerk endeavored to have
all of the papers replaced with the
correct documents, but in the case
of ]. s. Chandler, running for the
Senate, failed. Therefore, Chandler,
although the official head OF the
Democratic party on Kauai, is listed
as a non-partizan candidate.

munitions. Increased naval expend- itures which are being undertaken indicate every belief that the war will be prolonged.
 The position taken by the enlist ment officials and those in charge of army drafts looks towards a re- placement of losses annually for three more years at the same rate of losses which occurred on the Somme and elsewhere this Autumn.
 The same growing military pre- parations are in evidence, and this fall the preparations are just as much more gigantic than last year as were those of 1915 over those ot 1914.
 Government officials who leave the peace or war talk almost ex- clusively to Secretary of War George do not let the people get very en. couraging talk from him. George today is just as insistent in the war being fought to finish" as twelve months ago.

LOCAL ITEMS.

It is stated that it is the inten- tion of many to leave for Dime or Marshal as soon as advices arrive as to winter digging in both those camps. Many Nomeites are interest ed in bench ground directly or in- directly at Dime creek and word as to how things are looking there is awaited before they start off for the Koyuk camp. At least halt a dozen we'll known miners are thus waiting.
 Very important efforts are being made by one firm of well known miners to locate concentrated pay on the beach line, somewhere on Sunset creek. The owners !of ground that runs all the way from the low tundra to the foothills will this winter sink line of shafts from the lowest section of the coun- try to the foothills at regular inter vals in the hope of encountering the pay. Drifting will be carried on from the bottom of each shaft to the next one higher up, so that a regular tunnel will be mined from the lowest claim to the hills. In this way, 1t is rightly concluded, that if there is beach there it will be found. and if there is beach pay also it will not be overlooked.
