with his company, promising to clear a
path as wei as he could in order to en-
able Us to carry the boat sections through
the thick underground. Stairs, Parke
and l then made careful examination
of the men and loads, and found that we
should be obliged to leave fifty-six men
and eighty-one loads behind. Many of
the men were SO cowed and hopeless that
they wished only to be left to die peace
fully where they were.
But any man who was at all able to
crawl along we passed as fit to travel,

Jon. 7. Turner corrects us in regards
to the COW case in this weeks South
Jerseyman. He states that the case
was himself against Mr.. Walker to re-
cover a COW which he has in his pos.
sessasion and that he agreed to pay
SIS for the COW and each p%arty-he and
the executor Of Clarissa Walker-to
pay their own cost. We are glad to
know the truth of the case and that all
are satisfied, but it does seem funny
that a man would bring a suit against
another to recover something that he
has in his own possession and for him
to pay SIS for a COW that belonged TO
him. The case reminds us of the fun
we use to have when a little boy feed
ing eorn to chickens with a string tied
TO it. After the chicken had swallowed
the grain we would pull it out of its
craw. We did it right away though
and did not wait until the chicken
died.

DEATH OF A. |. SMITH.

The untimely death of Mr.. A. L.
Smith removes familiar figure from
the business and social life of Homo
lulu. His aged father, Rev. DR..
Lowell Smith, was only carried to the
grave this year, and his mother but
a few years ago. Two weeks ago
Mr.. Smith was attending to his bust
ness apparently in his wonted health.
He was seized with bronchitis, which
developing to pneumonia carried him
off early this morning. Mr.. Smith
had for many years been conducting
a sewing machine and fancy goods
business ON Fort street, within the
past few years occupying handsome
store erected for the purpose. His
character was of the most upright
and blameless in every relation of
life, his disposition and demeanor
were always kindly without show of
effort to make them so, and he was
philosophical, taking lively inter-
est in affairs, without being a politi-
clan. The deepest sympathy will be
felt in the community for the widow
deprived of the husband of only
few months, and with the bereaved
sister, Mrs. b. F. Dillingham;, in
their sore attiiction. Mr.. Smith was
superintendent of the native Sunday
Schools of Kaumakapili Church par
ish. That church was founded by
his lamented father and nurtured
into great strength by both his ven
Grated parents. Augustus Lowell
Smith was 80 years and 10 months
old, having been born in this king.
dom. He was married in Honolulu,
March II, 1891, to Miss Clara Ben
field. The funeral is announced to
take place at 3 O'Clock tomorrow
from Kaumakapili Church.

use of some simple remedy. The
