New Year Celebrants Cause of Serious Accident Chinese Dri ver Thrown Thirty Feet. Sunday morning, a few minutes after 12, while guns were roaring and bells ringing, in the New Year, a Chinese boy was thrown from a carriage, drawn by a runaway horse, and fell to the ground senseless, over thirty feet away. This was at the corner of Punchbowl and Beretania. The horse a fine driving animal, was from Carty's livery stables. The gen tleman who had the rig hired, drove by the stables, and had the boy, an em ploye of the stable?, to go with him to his home and return with the rig. Coming down Beretania street, the great noise which commenced at mid night startled the horse, a high spirit ed animal, and he was away with a dash. The driver lost all control of the beas:. The running horse kept a straight line until the Punchbowl crossing at Beretania was reached when the animal swerved to one side, jamming into a fence and breaking the rig into innumerable pieces. When the buggy struck, the boy went through the air fully thirty fe-et and was picked up in an unconscious condition. The horse, free from the rig e.nd crazed with fright ran against the Dewey restau rant building at the corner of Fort and Beretania streets, and fell to the side walk stunned. Captain Bowers with the assistance of the firemen there, got the animal back to its owner. The Chinese boy is now .in the Queen's hospital suffering intensely from a brokeji ankle. The valuable horse will be laid up for some time. Plantation Changes. (Hilo Tribune). Mr. Geo. Watt, of Waiakea, leaves that plantation shortly to accept the position of overseer on the Waialua plantation, Oahu, of which Mr. W. W. Goodale is manager. Mr. Watt has been in the employ of the Waiakea Mill Company for about six years, four as a luna and two as overseer. Mr. Watt is brother to John Watt, man ager of Honokaa, and the Tribune hopes to hear of him making his mark as well as his brother has done. Mr. and Mrs. Watt will be missed very much on Waiakea and in the city of Hilo. Mr. W. Jameson, who has been on Waiakea for a number of years, as luna and stable overseer, will fill the position vacated by Mr. Watt, and Alex. Smith, luna of the mill gang, has been promoted to stable overseer. Tonnage and Displacement. At the present time, when naval matters are a source of great interest to the general public, says the En gineering News, one continually finds the terms "displacement" and "ton nage" improperly used, both in the daily press and in common speech. The confusion between the terms would not occur if their meaning were understood. "Displacement" refers to the quantity of liquid displaced by the immersed hull of the ship, and "ton nage" to the freight-carrying capacity of the ship determined by certain rules of measurement. The displacement of a vessel is the entire weight of the hull with all its contents, according to the well-known law of hydrostatics that a floating body displaces a weight of fluid just equal to its own weight. A ship sinks in the water to such a level that the pressure of the fluid displaced exactly counterbalances the weight of the ship. No .More War Vy. Calculations made at the War. De partment at Washington show that the restoration of peace will result in a saving of from $450,000 to $500,000 a month in the single item of pay of en listed men in the United States army. A private soldier receives in time of war $15.60 a month, but in time of peace it is only $13. A first sergeant's pay is $30 during war and $25 in time of peace. The same proportion of de crease holds in the sa.laries of other non-commissioned offitars. The 160,- 000 men of the volunteer and regular armies" receive altogether $2,600,000 a month. A PIECE OF HARDTACK. (Life.) The detective entered the restaurant. He went up to the manly soldier who was eating rosy roast beef for the first time since April. "You are Lieut. Transport?" he asked. "I am," said the soldier. "You passed through this city on your way south?" "I did." "Did you throw from your window a piece of hardtack, with your name and address upon it, hoping the girl who smiled at you would get it?" "Yes. Well, what about it?" "Well," went on the detective, producing a warrant, "you missed your aim and struck the halfback of the Yalvard football team, breaking his collar-bone and fracturing seven ribs. He wants ten thousand j dollars damages EXPENSIVE WIRING. Telegraphing from Manila to United States is expensive, as can be judged from the fact that a telegram of thirty-five words from Admiral Dewey to the mayor of Philadelphia, thanking him for a congratulatory message, cost $107.10.
