that the Honolulu verdict in favor of the Carandinis

enthusiasm, last night, mt the benefit Of the Young
Mems Christian Association, in their hall ON Suffer
street, and many Of the pieces were encOred. The
duet, "Trust Her Not" by the sisters Rosina and
Fannie, is established as u favorite, and never can
escape without an encore the acting is very arch
and made irresistible by the coquettish glances OF
the sisters at the audience. The benefit Of tho
Carandini troupe will come of on Tuesday evening,
in Pacific Hall, for which q large number Of t're"'"
have already been sold, and there is every pr poet
that there viii be an audience in numbers con ma

A SAD AcoIDENT-Last Saturday afternoon about
D O'CLOCK, niue nauve poy' named hamninai' VINO
was riding on a dray on Nuuanu street, near Bere-
tania, when he tried to jump of. The dray was
going at a slow trot, but the boy stumbled on touch
ing the ground, and fell between the fore and hind
wheels, the latter going across his breast. He was
picked up and carried into the premises Of Her Maj
esty Queen Emma, where his parents resided. He
lived about 20 minutes after being run over, and had
consciousness and strength enough to say TO his
mother that it was no body's fault but his own. He
was about eight years Of age, and a very promising
boy. In this connection let us shy that we hope to
see the rule adopted by all dray owners and drivers.
of strictly tabuing the riding on drays by either
adults or children. 1t is surprising that no more ac-
cidents have occurred, when we remember how often
those heavy vehicles are seen numbering along at a
round trot, with men, women and children as thick
as they an stand upon them.
