MINOT MEN ARRESTED FOR
BREAKING GAME LAWS
Game Warden Learned What DecOys
Are and is Now Aware that They
May BE Kept in Open Water.

Game Wardens are exceedingly &C.
tive around the lakes southwest Of the
city, tho very few actual arrests have
been made.
A Minot doctor who was out in the
hills Sunday spied bunch Of tumb-
ling weeds and secreted himself be-
hind them. Before he had an oppor-
tunity to fire his gun, he was arrest
ed by a game warden named Fast,
who isn't very slow, charged with
hunting behind an artificial blind.
The doctor considers that tumbling
weeds are quite natural in North Da-
kota and inasmuch as he had not put
them there himself and had done no
shooting, will fight the case to the
limit. Sunday was his "off" day. Be-
sides getting arrested, he broke the
spring of his automobile and didn't
have the pleasure Of killing solitary
duck.
Two other Minot men were arrested
charged with shooting over decoys in
open water. The game warden had
never seen decoy before and after
sizing up the decoys used by the Minot
hunters, went to farmers home,
hunted up the word in the dictionary
ana came pack ana maze Ine arrest.
The law was framed by someone who
did not make the wording of the bill
very clear. The states attorney con-
siders that there is no law against one
shooting over decoys in open water.
If one had to hide the decoys in the
reeds or cover them with gunny sacks
they would be of little use. The action
against the two hunters has been dis
missed.
The game wardens are said to be
numerous and it pays them to be act.
i've because they receive $40 for each
conviction.
The hunters have been quite care,
full. 1t pays to be cautious, besides a
good sportsman does not care to break
the law.
Still the law is broken every day
by someone. It's either shooting be-
fore shutdown or after shutdown; shoot
ing without license, or exceeding the
bag limit, altho most hunters have a
hard time reaching the limit.

new homes or remodeling their old
ones, with the fact that the Certain
teed Paints and Varnishes which they
have seen SO widely advertised in the
national magazines and in the Ward
County Independent, are to be had

and the manufacturers reputation
stands four-square behind them.

Cane Fire In Lihue

A cane fire started by a spark from
a locomotive burned over sixty acres
of cane on Lihue Plantation last Tues
day afternoon, causing considerable
excitement around Lihue, due the
close proximity of the blaze to the
town.
The fire started about half a mile
northeast of the county building and
famed by a light trade wind, made
rapid headway toward the town, burn
ing close to the walls of the armory
and lumber yard of the Lihue Store.
No direct loss was occasioned by
the fire as labor supplied by Grove

along with the big harvesting gang

Get Water First

Three petitions for the immediate
opening Of tracts of public lands on
Kauai. aggregating about 5000 acres,
were presented in the house last We'd
nesday morning by Representative
Kaahu.
The lands in question are irrigated
by private water systems controlled
in the case of the Wailua lands, by
Lihue Plantation Company. If the
land is to be opened up for home
steading it is first necessary that a
water company be organized to bring
government water from the Wailua
River onto these lands, as the home
steaders would have no right to use
the water that is now used for irrigat-
ing the Wailua lands.
AS to the Waimea and Hanapepe
lands. the ownership of the water
rights used for irrigating these lands,
is at present being disputed. Gay &
Robinson and the Territory both claim
ing the possession of the water right
Provided the territory is able to main
tain its claim on the irrigation water
these lands will undoubtedly soon be
opened for homesteading, but until the
water right regarding the irrigation
water is settled the homesteading OF
these lands will probably be postpon
ed.

Show of National
Costumes at Fair

Honolulu, April 9th-A new feature
of the Territorial Fair, to be in the de-
partment of home economics and
household arts, is to be an exhibition
of the native costumes of the various
nationalities represented in Hawaii's
cosmopolitan population. The cos
tunes will be worn by young women
of the different nations, presenting a
spectacle that is expected to attract
a great deal of attention and, at the
same time, serve as an educational
demonstration of dressmaking, a
branch of household art.
This novel feature was decided upon
at a meeting of the home economics
and household arts committee, of
which DIR. Arthur l.. Dean, president
of the College of Hawaii, is chairman.
Other members present were Mrs. A.
l.. Dean, Miss Elsie Wilcox of Kauai,
Mrs. j. M. Young, Mrs. Fred w. Mac

Edwin II. Pairs of the Fair Commits
sion.
A tentative classification of exhibits
was discussed, to which list will be
added such suggestions as were made
by various members. whereupon cop
les of the revised prospectus will be
sent to each member of the committee
for individual consideration and study
so that at the next meeting of the com
mittee the final arrangements can be
made. 1t is the determination of
Chairman Dean, and others of the
committee, that this important depart
ment shall prove an unqualified sue
cess.

PAUL |SENBERG
PASSES AWAY

David Paul Rice Isenberg one Of
Hawaii's best known residents, and
particularly dear to many Kauai
friends, died Saturday morning at the
Queens Hospital in Honolulu after
long illness. His ashes were laid to
rest in the family section of the Lihue
cemetery this morning, in the midst
of a great wealth of beautiful flowers,
and large concourse of his friends
from all parts Of the island and from
all classes and races. The service
was conducted by Rev. A. Hoermann
of the Lutheran Church in Honolulu
The late Paul Isenberg, as he was
familiarly known, was intimately con-
nected with many of the leading en-
terprises of the islands in very varied
lines, showing much versatility of in
terest and ability. These enterprises
have been mainly along the lines of
the sugar industry and the ranching
and dairy business, in both of which
his large holdings and his practical
experience gave him a prominent
place.
In all business matters he was a
progressive, public-spirited man, an
optimist with confident outlook to
the future. On Kauai he was partic-
ularly interested in the success of
McBryde and stood by it Loyalty in
the early days, when it was getting
onto its feet, and needed every friend
that it could find. He was president
of the company for two different
terms.
Personally he had many noble and
attractive qualities which won to him
many friends among all classes. He
was warm-hearted, generous, respon-
sive, Open-minded, frank, with kind.
ly smile of recognition, and a gener-
Gus handshake for everyone from the
highest to the lowest. He made friends
easily and held them firmly. His in
terest, his sympathy and his benefac-
tions will be much missed by many
people and many causes.

The Kitsap Wreckage

Captain Troup, of the ill-fated Kit
sap, came down last week to rescue.
on behalf of his company, any avail
able wreckage in the way of spars,
sails, rigging, etc. AS this salvage
seems to be about all they are likely
to get in the way of indemnity, they
are trying to make the most of it.
The Captain says he doesn't wonder
that they are having a time breaking
her up. She was a mighty we'll built
vessel in the beginning, and a few
years ago they rebuilt her and fairly
shot the iron into her" in the way
bolts mad stays, so that she has got
to be fairly torn apart bit by bit.

DIRECTOR CLARK
VISITS KAUAI

E. B. Clark, director general for
the Territory for the Fifth Liberty
Loan, was on Kauai last week con-
ferring with the local committees
Mr. Clark is highly enthusiastic over
the outlook on Kauai and says he is
satisfied the people of this island will
cover themselves with glory, as usual,
by going clear over the top in the
fifth and last of the Government loans.
Mr.. Clark wishes to state that the
result of his visit to Kauai and his
personal interview with each member
of the Liberty Loan Committee which
will handle the forthcoming Victory
Loan campaign, was very encouraging
as far as the spirit shown by the
people of Kauai was concerned. No
one is more familiar with and appre-
ciative of the wonderful results OBJ.
tanned by the Kauai workers on the
Fourth Liberty Loan than he. And
knowing that with the proper realiza-
tion of what the people of the United
States are confronted with, Kauai will
again do her share in helping to
"Finish the big job"
Sure. We'll finish the job" is the
only expression we should accept
from the lips of the real American
when he is asked to subscribe to
Uncle Sans last and wonderful offer
Of Victory bonds when the campaign
opens on Monday, April 21st. We all
have our "ifs" and butts" but the one
thing to consider now is, What are
we going to do about it."

L|HUE DISTRICT
COURT NEWS

Five gamblers, shaking dice in broad
daylight behind the Tip Top building.
fell into the clutches of the law and
forfeited bail on Monday last to the
tune of $95.
Five of the same fraternity, belong.
ing to Hanamaulu, contributed $50 to
the county Golfers on the same charge.
Kim Youn Fook, Korean bad man,
assaulted another Korean by the name
of Soon Sick, causing him to be soon
sick enough to swear out warrant
for Kim's arrest. In court Kim, after
spinning a lengthy tale of seemingly
absolute innocence, was found guilty
and fined SIS and cost of court.
++~
The first conviction for the offense
of distilling okolehao was had on
Saturday, when Peter Adolpho. one
time wharfinger at Ahukini, pleaded
guilty to the charge of manufacturing
without a license, and was fined 500
and three dollars cost of court.
Peter had made okolehao allrignt
enough, and had been foolish enough
to ship two bottles Of the concoction
to Honolulu packed in a box with
bananas and sugar cane. Someone
carelessly dropped the box on the
wharf in Honolulu, with the result
that one of the bottles was broken.
Sharp noses soon detected the odor
and notified Marshall Smiddy, who fol.
lowed up the trail and found out where
the stuff came from and who had made
it. A wireless caused the unlucky
Peters arrest and arraignment in the
district court with the result as above
stated. Lucky for Peter the trial was
had here. II taken to Honolulu he
stood a good chance of Imprisonment
and possible fine besides.
Let the people think.
Candito Bendicio, Filipino, murderer
of Francisco Benetes another Filipino,
last week at Kalaheo, was brought to
the Lihue Jail and is now awaiting
trial in the circuit court some time
next month.
Bendicio admits the crime, claiming
self defense; having shot Benetes
three hours after Benetes had attacked
him on the road. Receiving what he
thought was rather rough handling
from the hands of Benetes, Benecio
returned three hours later with a 32
cal. revolver and shot Benetes through
the head, causing instant death.
The shooting occurred on the night
of April 3rd at the house of Deneseo
Paraha, in the Koloa homesteads
Paraha and his wife were witnesses
of the shooting. Benecio did not try
to evade the police, but gave himself
up peacably, claiming self defense.
