the horse and the shaft--d dangerous
work. This he did shutting his eyes
and taking the chances. He was struck
about the head in the fall and was
severely bruised and scratched around
the face and eyes both shoes were
torn off and he was in a dazed condi-
ton when he was assisted by a Portu-
guese butcher The horse "Dick" ran
to the stables at Waikiki without break
ing anything beyond the breast strap.
In passing Wenner & Co.'s, jewellers.
No. 90 Fort street, recently, we noticed
several ladies crowding around some
cases, apparently just opened, and
heard one of the ladies exclaim, "what
a pity these goods did not arrive in
time for the wedding" Curious to
ascertain what occasioned the remark
we stepped to Wenner's and soon dis
covered that he had just received per
Mariposa an elegant assortment of solid
and plated silver ware, Of the newest
designs, consisting of toilet sets, casters,
tea sets, solid and plated silver knives,
forks and spoons, in morocco cases,
lined with satin and elegantly chased
and engraved, flower vases, silver drink
ing mugs, napkin rings, etc, etc. We
we're also dazzed by the brilliant array of
solid and plated gold ware in watches,
chains and guards, sleeve buttons, studs,
earrings, bracelets, brooches, lockets,
shawl pins, etc. We told Mr.. Wenner
that it was very evident he had brought
all Of his pyeeions goods with him on
the steamer, and that his own recent
experience must have suggested the
propriety of his also bringing wedding
presents adapted to Others here, con-
templating entering the matrimonial
moose. His display really made us
think the holidays were at hand Call
and see it.
Mr.. II. S. Davidson, Of the Survey
Department, met with serious and
painful accident yesterday afternoon at
the Makiki Diamond The Honolulu's
we're playing practice game of ball.
Mr. Davidson was, playing short stop.
Shortly after five O'Clock the ball came
to him and with a quick under-arm
throw he attempted to deliver it to first
base. In the attempt the bone Of his
arm was broken between the elbow and
the shoulder, Immediately under the
large muscle. 1t is supposed that the
twist Of the under-throw and the strain
on the muscle Of the arm caused the
bone to snap, Some of the boys de-
clare that they heard the bone snap 20
yards away. Mr.. Davidson was i'm
mediately put into Mr.. Peterson's hack
and was brought to DR.. McGrew's
office, where DR.. McGrew with the as
sstance OF DR.. Henri McGrew set the
arm and made him comfortable. The
pain was very intense but Mr.. Davidson
son bore it manfully. The Press
reporter called while the arm was
being set and Mr.. Davidson accos-
ted him with, Hello You've
been after me a month for an item and
now I've got one for you, if you think
a little matter like this is worthy of
notice" MIR. Davidson was soon after
taken to his room on Emma Square
where he will receive every attention
Bad luck seems to follow the Homo
lulus, and this last stroke leaves them
virtually without pitcher Hay Wode-
house says, at last, that he believes the
Fates are against them.
