CAUGHT BY AN OCTOPUS.
ARTHUR HARllI NEARLY DROVTJI
ED AT WAIKIKI YESTERDAY.
Three HoTV'AttackeA bf a rfoMster
liquid While UalhlBC at Mieivroad's
Long Ilrniich Retort.
An accident occur redat "Waikiki
yesterday , which came rery near
to proving fatal. "Whilo Arthur
Harris, n lad of fifteen mud son of
Geo. Harris, KachaiL, 'the Java
nese circus i5dor, anda third 'boy
of about twelve, wero 'in bathing
at Jim Sherwood's .-place, Long
Branch, thoy woro seized by a
largo squid and young Harris was
very nearly drowned. Tho three
boys had jdived off Jtho end of tho
pier together when cKachail felt a
sevoro psin in his right leg and
something apparently crawling up
it Ho grasped hold of tho ob
ject with, one hand and toro
it loose, immediately swim
ming cml of dangor. Meantime
tho Bocond boy was attacked in
the same way and immediately
after Arthur Harris was Boizod
around tho right log and arm and
by the face and ear on tho right
side. Tho other boy aftor a hard
struggle of a few seconds got
away, but Harris was dragged
down to tho bottom and hold bo
ncath tho Burfaco for n full half
minuto. Happily he stopped up
on tho body of tho monster and
by almost suporhuman effort toro
himself loose.
Ho was almost ox-
hausted when
taken from the
water.
As soon as possible ho dressed
hiniBolf and started for town
on the .tram. His face and
oar wero terribly swollen
and .bore tho appoaronce of
having been lashed with a riding
whip. Great livid welts markod
his choek and neck. Upon reack
ingtown ho was taken to tho office
of Dr. Minor and given medical
attention. Ho is fooling all right
again this morning, although tho
wounds on both head, arm and
leg are still painful. Coming
down tho car ho said that tho suf
fering was intense, it having ovory
fooling of a bad burn.
' Such a mishap as that hero re
corded is extremely unusual, if
not altogether unprecedented, at
any of our bathing resorts either
in the harbor or on tho "Waikiki
beach. Tho jagged and high
reefs keep sharks and probably
other marine monsters nway from
tho Waikiki bathing places. It is
likely that this particular big
squid was itself surprised to en
counter human beings, and that
neither it nor any of its relatives
will pay tho shore watbrs a visit
again for many years to come.
KARIKIIAMEI1A GIRLS.
Score a MumIcuI Triumph at Indepen
dence Park.
The concort at Independence
Park, by members of tho Kamoha
moha Girls' school on Saturday
evening, was a success financially
and a very pleasing program was
rendered.
Prof. Borgor's orchestra played
two pieces in a manner which
evoked hearty applause and tho
chorus singing was fino .- Special
mention is due to Miss Lydia
Aholo, who has a very Bweot
Boprano voice; Miss Margaret
Sturgoon,who rondored as election
from tho Bohemian Girl, on tho
violin; Miss Olymer, who sang
Schubert's "Soronado" very cred
itably, and MisB .Rosin a Shaw,
pleased the audienco with Braga's
Angel's Soronado. The Canta
taotto (good wordj was excellent
ly performed, eight girls, appro
priately dressed, ropresonting
"light" and tho seven primary
colors.
A largo aiidionco filled tho hall
completely, tho performance being
givon from tho stago. at tho Wai
kiki end, upon which Bovoral
tiors ofseatB woro erected to oc-jnnn fC MflRI F IINFARF
commodate tUo sixty girls who took' UUU U "VDLC MnCftUC,
part in tho exorcises. Thoro waa one I
mistako made by tho management,
which iB noticeable- at nearly all
amateur concorts. Tho mustc of :
tho solos and ono of tho choruses
was much too difficult to be ren
dered in a creditablo maneer by
voices not professionally trained.
This very often spoils an entire
program. "Wagner has composed
much of tho finost, grandest music
tho world has over hoard, but it can
not bo oxpectcd tkat school girls
huvo ability or training sufficient
to sing it woll, and to hoar it sung
badly is torturo to an audienco
and humiliating to the singer. If,
in the cases montionod, simpler
airs had been substituted for what
is, properly, classical music tit
would hnvo boon much better.
AT THE CWCUS TONIGHT.

Tonight, a benefit performance

rider over seen in Honolulu, will

This iB
dono at tho request of
his .many
friends among tho citizens of Ho
nolulu, who have been charmed
and delighted with his marvelous
feats on horseback. Sing comes
from a largo family of circus peo
ple, his father Laving been one of
tho greatest showmen in India,
owning and managing two largo
combinations. Lahl himself was
raised with tho show, and has,
been a rider and all round acro
bat all his lifetime. Ho is famous
all over Australia and India, his
name being a .household word in
all tho largo towns of that portion
of tho world. Ho is -a Bongaleso,
born in Calcutta, and hasti num
ber of brothers who are merchants
dealing in various lines in British
India and London. "1 '
Lahl Sing has rocoived a
very good -education from
constant traveling through
out ovory part of tho East
ern world, as woll as tho Pacific,
has acquired a good knowledgo of
business und becomo much moro
of a cosmopolite than tho avorugo
traveler. A great deal of enthu
siasm provuils about town, somo
prominent morchonts having in
terested themselves to tho extent
of guaranteeing" a full Iioubo,
which Sing certainly doserves.
Tonight's program is elaborate
and attractive and no ono will bo

of it, no matter how many times

was prosonted when a pup to Mr.
Bremormann, ono of tho directors
of tho North Gorman Lloyd
Steamship Company, who former
ly belonged to tho firm of H.
Hackfeld & Uo. of Honolulu, and
will bo remembered by many old
residents. "Sultan" was a littlo
Bnappish in Bremen and tho
polico notified Iub ownor that ho

Mr.Bremormanu offered tho doi

Pflugor sailed for this port Ho
told tho captain that although ho
was not in tho dog trade, ho would
not givo him tho animal for noth
ing. "You put a substantial con
tribution in tho poor box," ho
said, "and you can tako
tho dog." So Captain Woltors
deposited 160 odd marks (about
$40) in tho charity fund, and thus
became tho proud possessor of
"Sultan." Tho dog's temper bus
