' It was Chester Doyle wild spoke, but he 'spoke not for himself, he was the mouthpiece as court interpreter of a Jap who was up for trial In Hilo. "I want to have my trial In Hono lulu," he suid, "I am too good a man to be tried in Hilo. No man who Is a good man and Ins a sjuI and conscience should be tried In Hilo. I am very moral and that Is why the people here In Hilo do not like me. They have followed me for revenge because I am good and have tried to send me to jail 'for many years. No I don't want to be tried here." This scathing arraignment, coming as It did from a man who has been con victed once for murder in the second degree, once for conspiracy to murder and Is now up on a second charge for a similar conspiracy, naturally of fended Hllo's dignity and some thought that Interpreter Doyle ought to have sugar-coated the pill. "Oh I don't know," said Doyle "I'm sworn to translate correctly, but there are several words in Japanese wliich lhave no exact eo,ul'alent In English. If I could have translated them Hilo would have had something to kick about and the court records would have 'been burnt full of holes." The Japanese was Funikoshl who In company with a countryman named Watanabe was convicted about a year go of murder in the second degree and was sentenced to thirty years Imprison ment. Watanabe got oft with' a trifling twenty-five years. The men were sent here but th case was nppealed and they secured their release on ball. The result of the nppeal has not yet been decided by the Supreme Court. Meanwhile the two men went back to Hilo where according to the stories told there, they commenced a campaign of terror against all of the Japanese, who had test'fled against them. They were again arrested on the charge of having conspired to murder and were again convicted, this time getting ten year sentences. To make assurance doubly sure ns to their detention, still another chnrge of conspiracy to murder was laid against them and this was the case In court. The matter was explained to them by Doyle at the Instance of Attorney Gen eral Andrews who pointed out that they might as well await the result on their appeal. There was no mistaking their desire in the matter and the cases went over CAPT. STINSON MARRIED. Bride Will Stop Over at Honolulu With Sister.

FURY OF THE IMMENSE VOLUME OF WAT R SWEEPS AWAY HALAWA BRIlAJE ON MOLOKAI. The Tilg cloudburst which struck the easterly end of Molokal last week did more damage than was at first estimat ed according to the news brought by Superintendent McVeigh of the Leper Settlement today. The full fury of the cloudburst was felt In the valley at Halawa for the greater part of the cloud, bursting on the easterly face of the mountain rcince, the water rush ed down that valley on Its way to the sea. The iriver gave but little sign of rising until the solid wall of black wa ter, many feet in height came sweeping down with Irresistible force The big government bridge, over 123 feet long which spans the valley was the only obstruction und this was brushed aside in an Instant. It was broken into three cections and the remains will of little use. Telephone poles were knocked down in many places and the wires were 'broken. The water subsided almost as quickly as It rose and the Inhabitants went about dreading that some neigh bors might have been Injured or kill ed.
