Incredible Tales of Superstl-

Especial Marconfgram to Star, Bulletin)

HILO, May 19.-Almost unbeliev.
able stories of witchcraft and illegal
practise of medicine are going the
rounds of the country districts now
adays and there is even one story that
relates to Hilo. The authorities are
doing what they can to put an end TO
such practises hut it is hard work as
the people most concerned do not
seem to be Interested in the matter.
Out at HonoEaa recently Japa-
nese who has been using the so-called
"moxa" treatment on children and
who was arrested for SO doing, for
feited bail in the sum of 500 and
cleared out of the district. The charge
laid against the man was witchcraft
or sorcery, which offense, under the
Revised Laws Of Hawaii, is punish
able by fine of from 500 to $500.
The "moxa" treatment is brutal
one and consists of the burning OF
the flesh of the patient with an iron
stick which has on the end of 1t some
fire made out of the dried leaves of
the moxa plant The medicine It
self is said to pc hot, but when dried
is set IN fire and then pressed into
the neck, head, body or limbs of the
unfortunate patient. The agony is
intense. The treatment always leaves
dead" spot in the flesh as the
nerves in that section are killed by
the burning.
In the particular case which is be-
ing written about, the police discov-
cred the doctor" operating on a
three-year-old Japanese girl. The
child was being held by two grown
| persons while the red-hot iron and
| dope was being applied to her neck.
The child was suffering intensely
and was helpless in the hanks of the
| grown-ups. The arrival of the police
and the arrest of the torturer put an
end to the seance and the terrified
little girl was relieved from her
agony. --
1t is stated that there is much OF
! this burning out of pain done in the
country districts. The charge OF
witchcraft seems a strange one in
these times, but section 1926 of the
Revised Laws of Hawaii define the
crime and punishment. -

Artists Exhibit at University
Club Shows Striking Bits
of Honolulu

Honolulu's "melting-pot." for years
the theme of prose writer's and poets,
is being translated into the rich realm
of painting by Ambrose Patterson,
the Australian artist, who for long
time has lived in Europe and is now
in Hawaii for stay OF indefinite
length.
Forty-five canvases-a staggering
amount of work for four months-are
on display, beginning tonight, in the
governors room of the j. University
Club. Mr.. Patterson's exhibit will con-
tinue for two weeks, the hours being
8 to 1880 in the morning and to
10:30 in the evening BY all means
it should be seen both by Honolulans
and visitors, for it gives some unfor-
gettable glimpses of hooks and corn
ers of Honolulu and this island, seen
through the eye of an artist who fair
ly revels in color.
Only two of the canvases shown in
this exhibit are scenes elsewhere
one at St. Leger, France, the other
Madrid bull fight scene. OF the
local specimens. about half are land
scapes and the other half an attrac-
tive collection of quaint, picturesque
or fantastic bits. of Honolulu, always
with the human note emphasized.
Mr.. Patterson confesses that he
likes crowds, movement, color, life,
vivacity, and his canvases have all OF
these He says, also, that he paints
Just as we'll when his easel is set
down In a busy Honolulu street, with
men. women ald children swarming
about him, as when he is alone in the
wide spaces of the field under the
sky, or on some lonely shore. In
fact, the visitor to the exhibit gets
| the impression that this artist is at
his best when stimulated by the hui
man touch.
! In some respects his work is OF
rare fidelity to detail. in others it is
| the antithesis of photography An IL
lustration will serve: He has painted
a fine bit showing the entrance to the
| Asahi theater, with the Japanese let
| tering so true to life that japanese
who saw the canvas, at once and
with appreciation read the words. And
yet he has eliminated a vast amount
of unnecessary detail so that the ex

striking.
His street scenes are what qualify
| him as one who translates the melt
|ing-pot" into terms of brush, paint and
| canvas. And always these scenes are
colorful-daringly so, in many cases
! Impressionism is sometimes strongly
apparent, with flaring red. a bright
blue, a gay green, to bring out the
bizarre characteristics of any Homo
lulu street scene in the Oriental
quarters.
| Most gorgeous of all is large can
vas showing his impressions of the
Japanese lantern parade of the last
Carnival. Here he has caught The
festival note, the confusing, kaleido
scopic mass of changing light, with
mere suggestions of the gay floats
the lanterns, remnants and merry
making Japanese carriers.
| A decided penchant for layendert
and puppies is most noticeable in his
landscapes. To be best seen, these
should be at some distance from the
eye. In marines he is not SO forum
