Eleventh Hour
! (Special to the Garden Island)
HanaLjKI, Auk. 26. Geo. Kaco,
a well-known cow boy, who resides
up Hanalei valley, was before
Judge Huddy yesterday, charged
with "child beating."
The case was an agravatcd one,
the condition of the child bearing
evidence o f the most inhuman
treatment and cruelty. The little
fellow who has been the subject of
Kaeo's fiendish attacks, is about
eleven years of age, a stepson, and
a truly pitiful little piece of
humanity. The complaints against
Kaeo's illtreatment of the child
have been continues for the last
year or more, but it has been but
receutfy .that the police department

Judge Huddy sentenced Kaeo to

and costs which amounted in all to
twenty-eight dollars and seventy
cents.

Homestead Association known as
the Lawai Association which was
to have gotten in on the ground

' has called a halt on further pro
ceedings in that direction due to a
premature explosion which has ap

not unlikely that some one or more

EARLY BLAZE ALARMS
THE HANAMAULU CAM
The Hanamaulu fire department
was called out at ten minutes
two o'clock yesterday morning to
subdue a fire which at first appear
ed to be a burning dwelling in the
upper camp, but which later proved
to be a pile ol trash which had been
thrown into the street and touched
off.
The members of the Hanamaulu
fire Department are experts with
the "hoes'" and the promptness
with which they reached the scene
of conflagration yesterday morning
put to rest any uneasiness for the
safety to our owners of three story
brown fronts, of a possible loss, by
fire.

As the Kauai ponies have all been

will create a keen rivalry in next

Hanalki, August 27. It is ru

erected on the Hanalei beach, the
site to be on a piece of govern
ment land on the Wainiha side of
C. II. Makee's residence. If pres
ent plans are carried out, the Board
of Health will erect the building,
place a nurse in charge of it whose
duty it will be to see that those
who are afflicted with tuberculosis,

there, returning home in the even

worked very satisfactory in other

CANE CAR CRASHES
INTO KAPAA AUTO
Car No, 68, belonging to the
Kapaa Auto Co., and driven by Mr
Ebbinger, was struck by a loost
cane car at the crossing below the
Hotel Fairview Saturday about
p. m. and so badly damaged that
further progress was impossible.
The cane car struck the rear wheel
of the auto which skidded to one
side instead of turning over. This
was a lucky part of the accident,
otherwise the passengers might
have been more or less injured
in an overturned car.
The left hind wheel was' broken
and the axle so badly sprung as to
render it impossible to move the
car without dragging the wheel.
A reporter was on the scene im
mediately after the accident' but
was unable to ascertain who, if any
one, was at fault,

In Honolulu
Dr. Doremus Scudder and party
have been doing some arduous
mountaineering o n Kauai during
the last two weeks. Among other
things they made the trip from
Wainiha to Waimca by the old
Kilohana trail. It is very unusual
to make this trip in this direction
as it involves climbing the 4100 ft.
Pali out of Wainiha Valley which
is a very arduous undertaking
Unfortunately the weather was bad
so that Scenically the trip was a
disappointment, and they hastened
down to the dryer atmosphere of
Waimea.
Later, under similar adverse cir
cumstances, they made the ascent
of Waialeale. They returned t o
Honolulu by the .Kinau, spending a
few hours in Lihue.
