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.

Willett & Gray further make an esti
mate of the total production of all sug
ars throughout the world for 1901, of
9, 561, SSI. 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. Yours truly,

so many society women go on the

Broadway Perhaps it is because
they are crowded out by the actresses
