J - 8 V i : J 83 DEATH ON a Ink THE PAL Wild Plunge of a Horse Over Railing. HEAVY WINDS THE CAUSE Animal Fell Became Frightened and a Distance of Twelve Hundred Feet. At noon yesterday a frightened horse attached to a buggy leaped frantically over the railing on the Pali road just below the quarantine guardhouse, and probably met instant death at the base of the rocky precipice 1,200 feet below. The wild plunge of the animal through space was witnessed by a young Chinese named Ah Fai, who had driven the horse to the Pali. The ani mal belongs to the Waikikl Inn Stables. Yesterday afternoon Ah Fai hired the horse and buggy and drove two young Hawaiian women to the famous cleft in the mountains, arriving there about noon. The wind was blowing with its usual force through the narrow rift, and it was with difficulty that the horse made its way from the Honolulu side to the Koolau side. The occupants of the bug gy had meanwhile alighted, intend ing to get in again when the horse reached a place in the road where the wind was less forceful. The animal, however, became frightened at the heavy gusts, and the boy had to tighten his hold on the reins to keep him in the road. Matters went along all right until the party reached that part of the highway just below the guard house. Suddenly the horse reared, leaped to ward the railing which guards the road on the precipice side and plunged over it. The carriage caught for an instant on the rail, and then the mass disap peared over the side and into the abyss below. Before the boy could reach the rail the horse and buggy had disap peared. Believing that the animal had been killed outright and that the only thing for him to do was to inform the owner, Ah Fai and the ladies retraced their way down the Pali road and tele phoned to town for one of Quinn's hacks. The Chinese viewed the matter philosophically, and said he would pay for the loss of the horse and rig. A search was instituted yesterday af ternoon to see what had become of the unfortunate animal, but nothing was learned last night regarding its fate. SUGAR IS IN GREATER DEMAND The World's Consumption in Kxcess of Produc tion. Editor Advertiser-. We have just re ceived from New York the following in formation in regard to the world's pro duction and consumption of sugar, which we believe will be of interest to everyone here, and think it will be somewhat of a surprise to many to learn that for the past three years the world's annual consumption of sugar has exceeded the world's annual pro duction of sugar, this condition being made' possible by a surplus which has been carried forward and is not given below. Our information consists of statistics published by Willett & Gray, accom panied by a personal communication from Willett & Gray, dated May 28th, 1901. The figures given below are in tons. 1S97-98. 1S98-99. 1S99-0O. World's consump tion of all su gars World's produc tion of all su JAS. F. MORGAN, U-NEE-da ktim and Biter 65 QUEEN STRKET, P. 0.

This is an estimated increase in the world's production of 1.0S9.S96 tons. From the various statistics given above, showing the comparative con sumption of sugar every year, it does not seem improbable that the consump tion for 1901 will increase in the same ratio as the production.
