(Special Correspondence.)
MAUI, May 21. On the ISth the
dead body of Akina, a chinaman be
tween 50 and CO years of asre. was
found in Kahului river near the beach
The cause of his death was not known.
A number of Portuguese of Kokomo,
Makawao, complain that the wide tire
act will work a hardship on the poor
man by compelling him to make the
change trom narrow to wide tires.
Heavy roars and rumbles, resem
bling: connonading, on the other side
of Lanai, caused Kula residents to
fear that the Spanish were coming.
They decided that it was only thun
der. During the afternoon of the 19th,
seventeen Makawao ladies attended a
meeting of the Thursday Club held
at the residence of Mrs. W. O. Aiken
of Hamakuapoko. The program, ar
ranged after suggestions by Miss Mc
Donald of Honolulu treated of "George.
Eliot." The program was as follows:
Character Sketch, Mrs. Geo. E. Beck-
with; Selections from "Mill on the
Floss," by Miss Schweizer and Mrs.
R. F. Engle: Vocal Solo, "Maid of the
Mill," Miss Fleming; Poem, "Brother
and Sister," Mrs. J. J. Hair.
The meeting was most interesting
and successful. The next assembling
of the club will occur in three weeks
at the residence of Mrs. D. C. Lindsay
of Paia. The subject of "George Eliot"
will again be taken up.
The next jury term of Court will be
held at "Wailuku beginning Wednes
day, June 1st. The calendar is said
to be short and to contain few im
portant cases.
Today, the Makawao Fence Commis
sioners will decide the matter of fenc
ing the boundary division line be
tween Kula lands belonging to Erehorn
Cattle Station and Awana.
The H. C. Co. are putting in a
third line of piers, thus broadening
their landing at Kahului which now
extends 240 or 250 feet into the bay.
During the week the schooner Albert
Myer arrived from Fort Brag, Cal.,
with a cargo of lumber for H. C. Co.
She made the trip in 17 days.
Today, the schooner Metha Nelson,
Rice master, will sail for San Fran
cisco with a cargo of Paia and Ha
makuapoko sugar.
For weather, unusually heavy trade
winds prevail.
A RAID.
Police Make a Sudden Descent on
Pake Gamblers.
Deputy Marshal Chillingworth and
about nine members of the police force
made a raid on the gambling den sit
uated in the rear part of the old Chi
nese theatre Saturday night. There
were promises of a very big haul, but
as soon as the officers entered the
theatre building on a run some of the
Chinese communicated the fact to the
gamblers in back so that, when the
raiders reached the dens, they found
only one occupied and the men in
this were just leaving. The gambl
ing apparatus were still on the tables
but the yellow birds hd flown from
the cages. In the occui '. d room some
money and other objects of evidence
were taken and about twenty men
arrested and taken to the police sta
tion. One very valuable fact, of impor
tance to the Board of Health, was de
veloped during the raid. As the
Chinamen were running out, three ran
for a hole near one of the outhouses
and dropped into a lot of filth and
slime before the officers could get hold
of them. It seems that a greater part
of the back yard of the theatre is
nothing but a pest breeding hole cov
ered with boards.
REWARD OF MERIT.
At the CHICAGO CYCLE SHOW in
1S37, each visitor on entering the
Show was handed a coupon reading as
below:
"After viev.-ing the exhibits, kindly
fill in the name of the Bicycle which
pleases you best as regards beauty
and mechanical merit, and deposit the
coupon in ballot box near exits.
Name of Bicycle "
The "Shirk" received 17.4S9 ballots
against 12,377 the next 'highest. When
it is known that all the leading makes
of wheels in the United States were
on exhibition at this Show, the above
speaks for itself. The HONOLULU
BICYCLE CO. have secured the Agency
for this strictly high grade wheel.
IT WILL INTEREST YOU TO CALL
AND SEE IT.
The SHIRK is the best thing that
ever happened.
Garbage Removal Appropriation.
Fish Inspector's Salary.
Rep. Ai.hi reported as tollows tor
the .Special committee to whom were
referred petitions regarding the rec
ords of courts in other than the First
Circuit, as follows:
"Upon inquiry made by us through
the Chief Justice and the Chief Clerk
of the court we find that the clerks
of several circuits are working on to
make new records of all the courts;
but we believe the original records of
the other circuits ought to be kept
in Honolulu where the people can get
all information they need in short
time, and where the chief clerk con
trols them at all times; the committee
also believing that this Legislature
will make an appropriation for a fire
proof vault in the Department of the
Judiciary."
The consideration of the appropria
tion bill was resumed.
Upon consideration of the item of
pay for fish inspector it was decided
to raise the salary to $75 per month
ur isuu ior tne two years, it was
represented that Mr.1 Keliipio's was
very important and responsible posi
tion and also that the amount of work
was very great; therefore he should
be given a proper salary. The item
of $1SOO passed unanimously.
When it came to the item of $9,720
for pay roll, removing garbage, Rep.
Pogue contended that owners of prop
erty should be make to clean not only
their yards but the sidewalks and
streets outside of their places. The
people of the outside districts should
not be made to pay for the people in
the city. They can be forced to do
what they now have done for nothing
by the Government.
Rep. Gear moved for the passage of
the item of $9,720 for the removal of
garbage.
Rep. McCandless suggested that pri
vate individuals be allowed by the
Government to carry on the business
of removing garbage. It would how
ever be wrong to strike out the item
at the present time as there was no
provision for a system to be carried
on by private individuals. The item
finally passed, Reps. Pogue, Richards
and Paris voting in the negative.
After consideration of the remainder
of the items under the Board of
Health, the House adjourned at 12 m.
