The well known stallion Venture,
owned by Mr.. G. B. Miles. was humane
ly destroyed yesterday morning by Mr..
James Brodie, V. s. About two weeks
ago Venture severely injured his stihe,
but under skillful medical treatment, he
had 80 far recovered as to be able to
walk during the past week apparently as
well as ever. On Saturday night he laid
down in his stall for the first time since
his injury. On Sunday morning he was
found to be suffering intense pain, and
Mr. Brodie was quickly summoned. He
found that the hip was broken, caused
probably in the struggle to get ON his
feet. Nothing could be done for him,
and Mr.. Brodie ended his sufferings by
putting him painlessly to death.
Venture was brought here by Mr..
James Campbell, who paid a good sum
for him in California Mr. Miles became
his owner about year ago, and the loss
falls heavily upon him. About twelve
years ago the sum of $4,000 was paid as
a half interest in this stallion.

The Wrecked KapioIani.

The tugs Eleu and Pele returned to
port last evening about O'Clock, but
without the wrecked steamer Kapiolani,
which is lying in sixty feet water, not
far from the reef and about one and
half miles from the entrance to the har-
Dor. II the weather continues fine she
can be very easily lifted with proper APP
pliances. The fault for this second mis-
hap lies with those connected with the
steamer, as the following narrative will
show: On Friday evening Mr.. De
Fries, one Of the owners of the Kapio-
lani, went to the Interior Office and
asked for assistance in rescuing that YES
sci and cargo, al d otherwise aiding those
on board. His Excellency Mr.. Gulick
sent for Mr.. julius Smith, Superintend-
ent of Public Works, who made such
haste that he was on his way to the
scene Of the wreck half an hour after
wards in one Of the tugs, taking with
him such appliances as were available.
Meanwhile Mr.. De Fries had been adj
vised to consult shipbuiiders and get
WRECK king tools. Inc second tug soon
followed, and both kept close to the
wreck working night and day. The
paddy was got out on Saturday afternoon,
when one OF the tugs was sent up to the
city and returned with two scowe
Native divers were sent down and placed
ropes under the hull of the Kapiolani.
These were fastened to the scows and
the vessel was then lifted and sustained
ahoat. A start was made to tow the
scows and wreck, but the lashings gave
way, and the Kapiolani foundered. She
was got afoat again and brought up to
the point above stated when the lashings
once more failed, and she sank in sixty
feet water. As the tugs could render no
further assistance, they returned to port

Chinese Gamblers Raided-A Large
Number Captured.

On Saturday evening Officer Marcos
captured six Chinese gamblers in a
house in the burnt district. One had
$114 and four gold rings on his person,
and another had $50. They were all
taken to the Station House.
Last evening Officer Mehrtens, with
two native police officers, made a raid on
a house on Maunakea street, near the
Fish Market, and captured sixteen Chi
nese gamblers. When Mehrtens and
the officers went to the house they found
two Cinnamon keeping guard. These
men were collared by one OF the officers,
while Mehrtens and the other rushed up
stairs to the room where the gambling
was being carried on. When they made
their appearance in the room there was
great confusion. Some of the gamblers
commenced to grab the money from the
table, while others tried to escape
Mehrtens got $185 from the table and
also considerable paraphernalia used in
the game of fan tan, which they were
playing. Assistance was called in and
sixteen of the gamblers were taken to
the Station House. Several of them had
various amounts of money in their
pockets. Five or six escaped from the
room
