Camp | Theatre Burned
In Sunday Morning Blaze

The moving picture theater at
Camp ! was destroyed by fire at an
early hour last Sunday morning.
When the blaze was discovered about
1 o'clock the building was a mass of
flames and it was impossible to save
any Of the furnishings or equipment.
A show had been given the night
before, and it is supposed that an
overlooked cigar or cigarett butt in
some waste paper was the origin Of
the blaze.
The building, formerly a warehouse
was the property of the Hawaiian
Commercial G Sugar Co. The furni-
ture and fixtures belonged to Weller
& NascOncellos and were not insured.
Among these were eight reels of films
the projecting apparatus and a piano,
the total value of which, according to
John A. Carroll, manager of the COM
pany, was between $500 and $500.
The play house was under the di-
rect charge of j. f. Camara, planta-
ton policeman of the district.

Insane Couple With
GunEXCitesMakaWaO
Overpower The JailOr, Take Re-
vOIver And Hold All At Bay
While Ammunition Lasts - Are
Now In Asylum

Plenty Of excitement was caused
last Sunday morning in Makawao
when Nakanaela Hau and his wife,
Kuaiki Hau, both confined in the Ma
kawao Jail on lunacy charges, broke
Jail after overpowering Kaleo, the
jailor and securing his revolver.
With the weapon in their posses
sion the couple proceeded to terrorize
the community and succeeded quite
effectually until w. A. Clark of the
Grove Ranch and some of his cow
boys were summoned to the scene.
Hau by this time had exhausted his
ammunition and it was no great task
to take him and his demented wife
into custody once more.
Hau, who was pump man for the
Maui Agricultural Co., lived at Ha-
makuapoko, and had been arrested
some time ago on account of his
threats against various persons, which
had virtually established his insanity.
His wife was at one time an in
mate of the territorial insane asylum
but was released some six years ago
as cured.
The couple were examined in Wal
luku on Tuesday by Drs. Rothrock
and Osmers, and on their report to
the district court We're pronounced in
sane. They were taken to Honolulu
on Wednesday evenings Claudine.

MakaWaO Church Holds
Good Annual Meeting

IN enthusiastic annual meeting on
January "a, at the Community House
There was a splendid spirit of appre-
citation over the reports from the sew
eral departments.
One noticeable feature was the fact
that the church has doubled its mem
bership during the past six years.
Through the church and the allied
organizations more than $1,000 have
gone out to help in foreign lands.
Some eighty people sat down to the
appetising buffet supper which was
served under the direction of Mrs. W
O, Aiken. Mrs. d. B. Murdoch arrang.
ed the beautiful decorations.

Teachers Decide To
ASkFOr Lower Raise
Change so Percent Asked For First
TO33 Percent Honolulu Teach
erS Only Want Small Increase And
Maui Now KOkuaS

Because some of the Maui teachers
believed that the Maui Teachers AS
sociation had been too "brash" in
adopting a resolution asking the legis-
lature for a straight raise of so per-
cent in their salaries; or maybe be
cause they are both modest and hon
est, and doubt if they are worth that
mach more, a special meeting of the
organization was held in Wailuku
last Saturday morning, at which the
amount of increase asked for was
pared down to 33ls percent.
The meeting was persided over by
'jent, Il. A. Brown, Of Pa"
meme, and was attended by about 40
pedagOgues.
1t seems that the Oahu teachers
only want a one-third increase, and
had sent a petition to Maui asking for
signatures asking for the same
amount. II was voted to recind the
former action for 80 percent increase,
and to sign the Oahu petition for the
lesser amount.

First Maui Soldiers
Have Arrived Home
Others To Come Tomorrow And By
Later BOats-Giyen Warm Wei
come - Years Experience Was
Highly Beneficial

Some 200 Maui boys, who have just
been mustered out of the army serv-
ice at Schofield Barracks, arrived
home this week and were accorded
an enthusiastic welcome by relatives
and friends. A portion of them came
up by last Tuesday mornings Clau-
dine, and others on Wednesday morn
ing by the Mikahala. 1t is expected
that $50 or 200 more will arrive by
tomorrow mornings Claudine.
The soldiers who arrived on We'd
nesday morning and landed at Laha-
ina. drove over to Wailulu in a num-
Der of automobiles, and formed quite
ing and singing.
Each boy was decorated with one
or more leis, which had been bestow-
ed by the ladies of Honolulu who
met the soldiers at the Oahu depot
when they came in from Schofield to
receive their discharges and to take
the boats for home.
Look Very Fit
There is no doubt that the army
experience did the Maui boys good
They were a very different looking
lot when they marched through the
streets on Tuesday and Wednesday
with firm, sure stride, squared shoul-
ders and erect heads, to the stragg'
ling delegations which the draft board
sent away from time to time about
a year ago. Not only has the dis
cipline and good food wrought a
wonderful change in appearance and
physique of almost every man, but il
is evident by their bearing that they
have improved mentally as well.
Back To Work Quick
The discharged soldiers had beer
provided with transportation to theiI
place of induction or enlistment, and
were not given their discharges until
they were upon the boats ready to
start.
Already those who have arrived
have disappeared from the streets
having almost without exception
scattered to the communities from
whence they came, and already gone
to work.

Much Illicit Booze
Being Made On Maui
Eederal Authorities Make No Move
And MOOnShine Stills And SwipeS
Factories DevelOpe Like Hush
rOOmS-Many Kinds OF Product

According to Sheriff Glen Crowell
unless the United States authorities
get busy pretty quick in very dit
ferent way from what they have in
the past, Maui is going to manufac-
turing and consuming more bouze Ci
various sorts than ir the palmiesL
days of the old regime.
There is good evidence from the
increased frequency which drunken
men are to be seen in public places,
that lot of intoXicants are coming
from some where. The Sheriff SAY s
they are being made right here az
home.
No one race or class of people are
engaged in this illicit business, ap-
parently Swipes is being made in
dozens of Hawaiian homes, and ac-
cording to merchants the Japanese
are supplying their erstwhile sake
with homemade brew. Some OF the
dealers have had such demand for
hops, yeast, and sugar that they have
these common beer ingredients made
up in convenient packages all ready to
hand out.
Distillino Too
And now the stronger kinds of Ii
quor are making their appearance.
Okolehao and various kinds of brandy
are coming into evidence. A Wal
lullu tin-smith is reported to have
made to order no less than dozen
outfits for distilling within about two
weeks time, just recently, and pre-
sumably he is still filling orders. Some
of the larger stores have been SUR
prised not only by the demand fol-
copper boilers that would be suitable
for moonshining, but by the charact
er of the some of the persons hunt
ing for them as well.
Pineapple Brandy
A brand of brandy with a fierce
"kick" is reported to be coming out

"FIu', Grip, Colds
The Rage On Maui
Much Sickness In Seine Districts But
Epidemic Is Mild-SChOOls Badly
Tit - Churches And Theaters
Closed

In the week since January "a,
when government physicians were in
structed to make a special listing of
influenza and grip cases, 1906 cases
have been reported in Walullu dis
trict. Twenty-Five new cases were
recorded in the district yesterday and
10 today.
Some of the cases are severe, the
doctors report, with characteristic
high temperature ard prostraton
There are several cases OF pneumonia.
Thus far there have been no deaths.
The prevailing Spanish influenza
epidemic, which seems to have hit
most every place in the world dur
ing the past year has finally reached
Maui. Maybe it isn't the "flu," but
| it is some of the earmarks. Doctors
are Chary about naming the malady
but whether they prefer to call it
cold" grip" or Influenza" they
| readily admit that it is an epidemic
Of something
As reported last week, Lahaina
was the first place to be hit hard,
and the situation on west Maui is not
much improved at the present time.
There were 323 pupils absent from
the Lahaina school on Tuesday. and
235 out yesterday, indicating perhaps
some improvement. Olowalu has haG
about so percent of the enrolment
absent.
Few Very Sick
Whatever the epidemic is it is not
so very severe, and there have been
practically no deaths on Maui 'charg-
ed to it. Wailulpu district reports a
good many sick this week, and the
county supervisors have made ar
rangements for caring for the over
flow from Malulani Hospital in the
big store room formerly occupied by
the Maui Wine e Liquor Co., in the
K. of p, building.

Piiholo should be buried at pookela,
not only because she had spent most
of her life in Makawao, but especially
because for a long period she and
her mother on their own initiative

a Sunday school for Hawaiian end
other children of the vicinity in the
old adobe landmark, the last exercises
of the kind ever held in the Hawaiian
edifice.
