Five Days Imprisonment.

FOUND GUILTY OF CONTEMPT.
J. M. Vivas, a well known attor
ney of Wailuku, was found guilty
of contempt of court and sentenced
to imprisonment in the Wailuku
Jail for a term of live days by Dis
trict Magistrate McKay on Monday
of this week.
Tho trouble arose as the result
of an objection by Vivas to which
the court ruled adversely and to
which the attorney made further
objection. He was told to sit down
but not only kept on his feet but
kept objecting after he had repeat
edly been told by the court to sit
down. The court finally warned
the attorney that unless ho sat
down tho court would find him
guilty of contempt Those present
state that he was told five times to
sit down after which the court
found him guilty and sentenced
him to imprisonment for five days.
Mr. Vivas has been very ill for
the past two weeks and when this
fact was called lo the attention of
the court the judge stated that if
the attorney would apologize he
would be willing to let the matter
drop. This apparently was not
satisfactory to the attorney and he
took an appeal to tho Circuit Court
by habeas corpus proceedings.
Judge Kepoikai dismissed tho peti
tion and the application for bail
and remanded the prisoner to the
custody of the jailor.
On the certificate of Mr. Vivas'
physician, Dr. Dinegar, the jailor
sent the prisoner to the Malulani
Hospital under guard of an officer.
CARTER WAS PINCHED.
A complaint was recently sent
to tlo county board of supervisors
that persons were hunting on the
island of Molokai without a license
and when tho police approached
tho offenders they would tell the
police that they were tho possessors
of licenses but had failed to bring
tho same with them. Tho Deputy
Sheriff there asked for instructions
as to what he should do in such

being molested.
WIFE BEATER IS JAILED.
A native man by the ')(.. 0f
Gilbert plead guilty to r,. .,ui
battery on his wifo on Monuay of
this week.
On September 27th he was guilty-
of the same offense and so found
by tho court and sentence was sus
pended. The court asked the Deputy
County Attorney to make' a sta'e-
mont who said that in the past sus
pension of sentence had been ask
ed for by tho prosecution in many
eases where it was felt that it was
for tho benefit of both the husband
and wife and in each case it had
proven satisfactory and none of
tho parties convicted had cone
wrong while under suspension of
sentence. This case seemed to be
an exception however and the
young man seemed to bo of the
opinion that ho could dodge sen
tence again and requested the
court to deal with the case as
severely as he thought the case
merited.
Tho Court then sentenced the
man to serve a sentence of ten days
for tho first offonso and twenty
days for tho second offense.
Tho wifo stated that Gilbert
had been away nearly all night at
the tinio tho trouble took place and
when.ho returned betook his valise
and clothing and when sho asked
him where ho was going he said ho
was going to live with bur cousin.
She remonstrated with him at
which ho became angered and
struck hor and choked her and tore
nearly all of her clothinj; off. Sho
called for help and another man
came to her assistance and a fight
.ensued while sho ran to tho Sheriff
for protection who took pity on
her and furnished her with cloth
ing and protection until her bus
band could bo urrested. ,
