Life Insurance For Soldiers.

Exposure TO the extra dangers OF
war makes the cost of life insurance
in private life insurance companies
prohibitive. 1t was, therefore, a
plain duty and obligation for the
Government to assume the risk of
insuring hundreds OF thousand ofour
soldiers and sailors who are making
the supreme sacrifice. Under this
law, every soldier and sailor and
nurse, commissioned and enlisted,
and of any age, has the right, be-
tween now and February II, 1913,
to take out life and total-disability
insurance up to $4,000 at very low
cost, with the Government without
medical examination. This right is
purely optional. The soldiers and
sailors are not compelled to take in
surance, but il they desire toexercise
the right. they must do SO before
the 18th of February, 1913. The
cost ranges from SO cents monthly,
at the age of 81, to $1.20 monthly,
at the age of 81 for each 81 900 of
insurance. This is small charge
on mans pay-small in proper
ton to the benefits it may bring,
The premiums will be deducted
from his pay, if he desires, thus
eliminating trouble on his part.

HILO SHERIFPS
SEARCH PROVES
FRUITLESSO ONE
Especial Star Bulletin corre.Dondspe.l


HILO, Oct. 19.-Sheriff Samuel K.
Pua is back from kona where he spent
some time searching for the remains
of Simon Kanui, believed to have been
shot and killed in February, 1915, at
a section of the Honokau ranch, above
Hookena. The search for the remains
was not successful, although hundreds
of acres of very rough country were
surveyed by the sheriff and his dep.
uties. The bones of Simon kanui are
thought to be in some undiscovered
hole or cave.
The sheriffs party spent some days
on the mountain side in a little hut
about seven miles above Hookena. The
cold at night was intense and the
party, not having sufficient warm
blankets, suffered considerably. How
ever, the search work was carried on
until IT was decided that an even more
exhaustive search would have to be
made before the remains of the Ha.
waiian could be discovered.
While away on this trip the sheriff
learned that the prison guard who had
charge of Iterio Basques, the Porto
Rican now held for grand jury inves.
tigation in regard to the murder, had
confessed. The prisoner is said to
have admitted that he accidentally
killed Kanuf while out goat hunting.
This additional evidence corroborates
the statements OF two other men who
claim that they were told the same
story by Iterio Basques.
The Sheriff has not given up hope
of finding the remains of the Hawaiian
who disappeared so mysteriously in
February, 1915, and will continue the
search. go = =
