BOY AND HORSE
Both Badly Injured and a
Rig Broken Up.
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.
