Leon Straus, ho wno by telephone
girl is alleged to have threatened her
death, leveling a pistol, unless she
consented to become his wife, lias two
charges placed against his name on
tho police record.
Ho Is charged with inflicting a slight
injury and also with carrying a con
cealed weapon. On the latter charge
ho is likely to have trouble, but there
seems to have been no slight injury
inflicted unless It was to the latly's
nerves.
Probably the section following the
"slight injury" section is that under
'which it was intended to charge him,
that havingto do with assault.

In fact there are only two buildings
that could be considered class A build

in Honolulu naturally reduce the Are
risk as wo have no open flres nor do
we use heating apparatus in our build
