Opera House on Saturday evening next.
Full particulars later.
! Ii the ladies will read the advertise
ment of the Popular Millinery House on
the ninth page, they will learn some
thing to their advantage.
Sneak thieves have been making their
presence known in the city recently, but
the police have not been so successful in
catching them as could be wished.
HOLSTER & Co. carry full lines of
drugs, tobaccos and cigars, and photo
graphic supplies of all kinds. See their
new advertisement on the ninth page.
Chickens are at present having an
unusual value in the estimation of
thieves, and it would be advisable for
parties keeping fowls to provide extra
security for their safety.
AIangoes are now coming into season,
and are dropping ripe from the trees.
This fruit would be more appreciated
were it not so common and plentiful.
1t is nevertheless delicious fruit.
Our allusion to "dead donkeys" in
Saturdays issue, seems to have set the
Bulletin man on his ears, which we pre-
sumo are substantial enough for the
occasion-not to mention their length.
Advices by the Likelike report fine
weather on the Kohala and Hama coasts.
Similar weather was also experienced
by the Iwalani at Hamakua, and the
Mikahala reports a smooth sea and clear
sky from Kauai.
A kanaka, living near the Insane Asv-
lum, on Saturday night drank an over
dose OF alcohol, or some other poison,
and died in consequence soon afterwards
An inquest was held on Sunday,
and the verdict Of the jury will be rend-
cred later.
At the race in Kapiolani Park on
Saturday afternoon, Cummins' Kaaolani !
beat Oderkirk's Rockwell two lengths |
in a half-mile dash; time 81 seconds. !
The race between Cummins' Ivory and |
Cornwells Conspiracy was declared off. |
i large number of people were in at
tendance.
All the Government offices closed at |
noon on Friday; but business at the re-
tail stores continued throughout the day |
business did not seem to be much in
terrupted. Altogether. it was the quiet
est celebration of the British Queens
remember to have witnessed |
in Honolulu.
BY the Mikahala we learned that DR..
Anderson will not return from Kauai
for several weeks, as he has fallen into
a considerable temporary practice there.
We learn also, by the same vessel, that
an accident occurred to q Portuguese at
KOloa Mill whereby his legwas shattered
by cogwheel, and he died in conse-
quence.
Mr.. A. Hutchinson, soul ptor recently
arrived, has just completed cast of the
bust of His Honor Mr.. Justice McCully
This work of art is much admired; and,
We learn, has given great satisfaction to
all concerned. We also learn that it
is probable others OF our local magnates
will have their busts cast by Mr..
at an early date.
About II o'clock Saturday night
there was a scuff1e in Loves bakery,
between Capt. Of Police Larsen and a
man named Pat Hayes. In the struggle
between the two men Larsen's ear was
bitten off altogether. We have not
learned all the sickening details, but
there seems to have been a grudge ex-
sting for some time. Hayes was lodged
in the Station House.
The following item appears in the Bull
eth OF last Saturday: "Some of the
crew from II. 3. NJ. S. Espiegle were
ashore to-day" This specimen is
neither sanitary" nor "mortuary" re-
porting; but it reminds us of Shak-
:peare's "men is bucllram," and as an
TEN Of cautious reporting it has few
equals. 1t would do for standing
local" while the Espiegle remains in
port.
