ABOUT two months ago a Chinaman on Kauai,
met q foreign female travelling on horseback,
u-naccompaned by her husband. After making
some villainOus oyertures TO her, at the same time
Offering her q large sum of money, she managed to
get away from him. He followed her up, however,
dragged her from her horse, and proceeded TO use
brutal force in order to accomplish lis object.
Fortunately a native Hawaiian appeared when the
young woman was about Overpowered, and the
Chinaman desisted and fed. 4 diligent search has
been made by the police for the perpetrator of this
foul deed, and they have at last caught him. The
prosecuting witnesses proceeded to Kauai in the
James Makee last evening, and II IS hoped that
this wOuld-be TavisheT will meet with his deserts.
DoGs-blind, deaf, dumb, sick, sore, lame,
NANCY, nearly starved, lazy and without collar
and tag-are to be seen laying around the streets
of Honolulu, in fact all through the district, OBJ
noxious to the sight Of people, spreading disease,
and nothing done TO abate the nuisance. Section
497 Of the Civil Code provides as follows;
Every person having the custody or possession
of anv dog shall be deemed TO be the owner thereof.
and shall be taxed for the same. 1t shall be lawful
for a.. , tax collector, or other person to kill any
dog, the owner of which shall have refused or neg
lected TO pay his fox for the same, or for which no
owner can he ioul
If the p. olice a?51iorities are too busy or too tired
to help a suffering community in getting rid of
this common nuisance, it is suggested that a sub
s%cription be started among the citizens to paw
some one to dispatch the disease spreading CANNES.
e LAST evening Mr.. A. G.. Ellis entertained a few
select friends to 4 dinner at the Partisan Restau-
rant. the occasion being his birthday. Mr.. Ellis
wisely entrusted the charge Of the cuisine to that
eminent artist, Robt. Oehlhaffen, and judging
from what appeared on the table. and also from
what disappeared, il was self evident that the
chef de cuisine had devoted considerable attention
to the important duty that devolyed upon him.

In addition 10 the above, there was a wine card

experienced connoisseur. A golden bouquet
holder was presented to each Of the guests, and
other little accomplishments 10 a most perfectly
arranged dinner. made the whole affair pass off in
4 most "a tisfactory and successful manner. Mr..
Oehlhafen not only superintendent the work of
the cuisine, but to him was also entrusted the
important dnty of superin tending the service and
attention TO the tables, all of which were carried
ont in our Chefs best style. A little surprise of
fireworks diverted the attention of the guests from
