The man who plays the cornet in
the vicinity of Fort and Hotel streets al
all hours of the day and night is kindly
warned that various threats have been
made against his life by sojourners
within hearing of his music. If he
wishes to continue his lease Of life and
play his little horn at the same time it
would be advisable for him to build an
iron tank and get into it. Otherwise

news OF storm which occurred on the
island of Molokai Saturday before last.
The new church lately dedicated by
Dr. Hyde was moved from its founda-
ton and so badly wrenched that it will
probably have to be pulled down and
rebuilt. AT Waialua much damage
was done to the timber, and along the
mountain side there is hardly tree
left standing. The whirlwind, which it
undoubtedly was, was local in its ex-
tent and lasted only about an hour.

Last Saturday evening about seven
O'Clock two of the Custom House off
Gals arrested p. NJ Lucas, the second
steward of the Md,7boSa, coming off
the steamer with four tins of opium in
his coat pockets. Search was imme-
diately made and seventeen more tins
were found in his state ROOM The
seventeen tins were in large tin re-
ceiver. Two empty tin receivers were
also found in the state room. 1t is
more than likely they contained opium
which had already been disposed of by
the enterprising steward. Mr.. Lucas is
now languishing in cell, No. I, at
the Police Station.
| Last Saturday afternoon about one
O'Clock the Hotel Baggage Express
wagon was run away with by horse
that is up to such tricks, and severe
accident was narrowly avoided. The
horse started from in front of w. L..
Hoppers planning mill on Fort street
and dashed up town without driver,
striking the hind wheel of carriage
standing in front of the Pacific Hard
ware Co.'s building, Continuing up
Fort street the horse was grabbed by
the bit by Scotty the champion
catcher, who, until the animal was
checked, guided him clear of carriage
standing at Warehouses; store, and
most probably avoided catastrophe.
