THE PACIFIC COM M KIM I A J A I'VKirriSKli: no.NOLULU, MARCH 12. !b95.
JUDGE PERRY AT HARD LABOR,
Nearly Two Hundred Cases Called
in One Day.
.fusr HiIkinu ie roi: l.ot time.
A Large Number of Cane, both Civil and
Criminal, Disponed Of In (he District
Court Another Lot to Cone Up To
morrow Some Sentence Suspended.
The defendants alone in the
numerous cases called in the Dis
trict Court yesterday would fill a
courtroom not larger than Judge
Perry's to repletion. There were
all sorts of them, from the common
ordinary drunk to those accused of
embezzlement and barratry, and
some people don't know what that
crime consists of. The great ac
cumulation of cases, however, evi
dently inclined the Court to mercy,
and the celerity with which busi
ness was despatched would com
pare favorably with the Tombs
Police Court in New York. In a
great number of cases pleas of
guilty were entered and in most of
these sentence was . suspended.
Ordinary cases of drunkenness or
bad and unseemly conduct at
night were let off with a two-dollar
fine and an extra dollar for the
clerk's costs.
The case of C. L. Brito, charged
with embezzlement, was continued
until moved on by the prosecution.
Patrick Cullen's preliminary ex
amination on a charge of murder
was set for hearing on March 12th.
A number of assault and battery
cases were dismissed, nineteen in
dividuals paid fines for being
drunk and four escaped, having
made satisfactory excuses to the
Court.
Captain Hill's case was post
poned until March 12th, although
he pleaded guilty. He is charged
with barratry, which in the lan-
-e n. - 1 i
guage vi iuo .uumpiuiui, ugtuubv
him, means running away with the
steamer "Waimanalo while that
vessel was within the maritime
jurisdiction of the Hawaiian Isl
ands. To give a list of the cases dis
posed of by Judge Perry yesterday
would be tiresome, some six pages
of bis docket being filled up on;
criminal business alone.
At the afternoon session Judge
Perry devoted his time to clearing
off a number of civil cases which
have accumulated in the past two
months. Of these Joseph Tinker,
the Nuuanu street butcher, had
two, one against P. A. Anderson
for meat to the amount of $28.35,
and the other against Wm. Max
well for $25 76. In both cases Mr.
Tinker recovered judgment for the
amount sued for besides the usual
costs and percentage.
A. Fernandez recovered judg
ment by default against Lau Chong
for $163.08 on three notes for un
paid liquor bills.
Lewis & Co. obtained a judgment
against P. O'Sullivan for $13.73 on
a grocery bill, John Effinger ap
pearing as attorney for plaintiffs.
Several cases for debt were set
tled before the Court upon the
payment of costs, and stricken from
the docket.
In all, twenty-six civil cases were
disposed of yesterday afternoon,
but these represent only a email
proportion of the wkole.

VOLCANO PICTURE SOLD.
Mr. Hitchcock's Painting Will Go
to England.
Howard Hitchcock's celebrated
picture representing the blow-bole
at the Volcano has been sold by
Mr. C. D. Cha?e to the Hon. James
B. M. Lingard Monk of the Con
servative Club, London.
This painting, one of Mr. Hitch
cock's best, represents the active
blow-hole that opened on the rising
sides of Halemaymau in April,
1894.
It presaged another "Little Beg
gar," a marked feature of Kilauea
as late as 1887.
- The action of this new opening
was, however, short lived and-last-
ed barely two weeks.
Fortunately the artist visited
the Volcano during its activity and
from sketches and studies then
made painted this picture which,
as a realistic representation of furi
ous activity and suppressed vol
canic force has not been surpassed
in his own work, nor even by that
of the late Ta vernier. Standing as
near the fire-vent as is safe, with
the internal glow lighting its rag
ged edges, supplemented by the
indications of fire already showing
over the edges of the main fire
lake above in the gathering dusk,
one feels transported to the scene
itself, almost conscious of the rum
blings and vibrations of the hidden
forces beneath the broken surface
of the darker lavas. In the dis
tance, just showing, is a portion of
the surrounding crater walls, while
the sky shows murky, and discol
ored through the rising vapors and
sulphurous gases.
This picture, is a faithful repre
sentation of one of nature's sub
lime forces and may well be class
ed as one of tbe artist's best ef
forts. WANTS BUSSES REGULATED.
Taxpayer Gives Some Suggestions
on Management of 'Bus Lines.
Mr. Editor: I wish that you
would grant me space enough in
your paper to voice not only my
sentiments, but the sentiments of
the public.
Is it possible for us to obtain
a 'bus line service that will be run
to accommodate the people who aro
forced to use the 'busses as a means
of getting to and from their places
of business? A week or so ago I
had occasion to use the 'busses at
Kalihi, as usual, to carry me to
town, and after waiting some fifteen
minutes, asked the driver when he
expected to leave, and he politely
informed me that perhaps he would
start in fifteen minutes and perhaps
in an hour or so.
The same thing occurred last
Sunday at Waikiki. I do not wish
to be put down as a kicker, but as
long as the persons interested in
the omnibus business intend cater
ing to the public and their wishes,
I think that they should consider
the wants of their patrons rather
than their personal differences.
In Peoria, 111., where the 'bus
lines are extended beyond the street
car lines, the city council passed
an act which is not only fair to the
owners of the 'busses, but to the
traveling public more particularly.
The substance is as follows :
"The time-table of departure and
arrival from and to the several
stands and places within the police
district of shall be regulat
ed by a time-table approved by the
city council, copies of which shall
be" prepared by the person in
authority, from whom a copy may
be had on application. Every driver
who shall start or arrive at any
public stand or place otherwise
than in strict accordance with such
time-table, shall be guilty of an of
fense against this by-law.
"Provided, That as occasions re
quire, any such time-table may be
altered under the like authority
aforesaid. The first omnibus to
start on one day shall be the last
on the next, and the others in their
order, and each owner shall furnish
an omnibus to perform the jour
neys in turn that fall to him, so as
to keep a continuous routine daily."
I hope that the pres3 of Hawaii
will take up this matter and bring
it before the public, and I feel as
sured that if it is done in the right
manner they will find that my
ideas will be voiced by all who are
dependent upon the 'busses as a
means of getting down town in
time to be at their places of busi
nesaon time.

Mr. John A. Scott, Manager
of the Hilo Sugar Company
gives the following wonderful
record of the working of the
NATIONAL CANE SHRED
DER, which was erected by
their works at the commence
ment of the crop just har
vested: "During the past week the
Hilo Sugar Company's mill ex
ceeded any of its former
records by closing the 125
hours grinding with an output
of 300 tons. This is fully 10
per cent, more than the best
work of former years.
"The three roller mill being
26 in. by 54 in. and the two
roller mill 30 in. by 60 in. The
first mill doing this amount of
work in an efficient manner
and with great ease, compared
with wort on whole cane,
owing to thorough preparation
of the cane by the National
Cane Shredder, recently erec
ted by the Company. And
by its use the extrac
tion Las been increased from
3 per cent, to 5 per cent, on all
kinds of cane, and in some
cases 80 per cent, has been
reached; the average being 75
to 78 per cent., according to
quality. -
"I continue to find the
megass from shredded cane
better fuel than from whole
cane.
The shredder has been
working day and night for
seven montns and has given
me entire satisfaction, having
shredded during that time
about seventy thousand tons
of cane, and a largo part of it
being hard ratoons.
"The shredder and engine
require very little care or
attention."
