After remaining in session all night for two successive evenings and the searching examination of a score or more witnesses, the coronor's inquisition empanelled by Deputy Sheriff Fetter, returned a report of their findings that Moriyama Kiutaro came to his death at Hilo 011 the 2nd day of January, 1905, from wounds caused by a hatchet, knife and club, and from the evidence produced the jury believed that the deed was committed by Morita Kizo and two accomplices unknown to the jury. The coronor's jury consisted of W. S. Terry, Richard J. Lyman, J. M. Herring, Wm. Weight, K. C. Kubo and S. Sato. Two entire ' nights were spent in examining witnesses, the session of the jury com mencing promptly at 7:30 p. m. Wednesday and Friday evenings and, continuing until daylight. Morita, who has been under arrest, finally abandoned his first claim of an alibi, when he found that his witnesses had weakened, and finally confessed to having committed the deed, as he alleges in self-defense. He claimed that when Moriyama Kintaro came outside of his home in response to his call, that he turned on him with a cane knife and he killed Moriyama in defending his own life. This, however, is not substantiated by other evidence brought before the jury. Hence tne veruict. , Beach Sand Reserved For the People. J On December 16th, 1904, Eugene H. Lyman applied to Governor Carter for a thirty year contract to buy from the government all of the beach sand at Hilo, and all street sweepings, which he might use for the sum of twenty-five cents per ton. The letter was turned over to Superintendent of Public WorksHolloway and by him referred to the Hilo Board of Trade, asking that body for an expression of opinion. The executive council replied by calling the attention of the Governor and Superintendent Hollow-ay to Section 2138, Civil Laws of 1897, with reference to beach sand, which reserves to the people certain rights named therein, among others being the privilege of removing for their own use or for sale, all drift wood, coral and sand from the government reefs and lands. As the sea beach is construed to be government pro perty, the executive officers, without the enactment of special legislation would have no authority to enter into any contract for sale or other dis position of the sand. Regarding the street sweepings, it recommended that when the time was ready to dispose of these, that the same be put up at auction. The Board of Trade are iu receipt of a letter of thanks frornSupt. Holloway for calling his attention to the old law on the sub ject, which had escaped his attention. FURNISHED ROOMS BY DAY, WEEK OR MONTH. Neat and newly fitted.

Rehearsals for the Cook benefit vaudeville are being held nearly every afternoon and evening, and if the interest which those who are taking part is any criterion, the performance should receive substantial patro nage from the public. Mrs. J. T. Lewis, who is musical directress, has been working industriously in perfecting the choruses, and Mrs. R. G. Curtis has been painstaking and careful in her training of the various steps and dauces required in the various features of the program. Doth ladies have had a corps of sewing women busily engaged in making costumes for the different parts, which will be both tasty and appro priate. Mrs. A. G. Curtis is the busiuess manager of the affair, which as will be seen is a ladies affair, entirely under the supervision of capable women. The program has been prepared with considerable care and promises to present an entertainment of unusual merit, both from a musical and theatrical point of view. The march of the Colonial dames contains a number of the society ladies of the town. The Quaker maids and city lads, iu which seven prominent ladies and gentlemen will take part, is pretty and catchy. Miss Margaret Tutt of Los Angeles, who is a visitor in the city, has been prevailed upon to render a vocal solo, and Mrs. R. G. Curtis of Olaa will probably respond with a vocal selection from the opera of "Miss Dob White." William Carlton Cook, in whose behalf, the production is being given, has promised to recite, and Mrs. A. G. Curtis, who is a brilliant elocu tionist, will give a recitation. The Killamy Quartette, which has been so popular in the past, will sing a number of selections. W. 11.
