Races at Pearl HarbOr.

On the 18th of March, the birthday
of Kamehameha Ill, st. Patrick and
j. A. Cummins, there will be a re-
gatta at Pearl Harbor, consisting of
first and second class yacht races and
rowing races for four and six cared
boats. A full description of the con
ditions will be found elsewhere, ex-
cept as to the courses, which have
not yet been fixed and will be pub
lished later. The magnificent prizes
for these races have long been on
exhibition in the show windows of
the Pacific Hardware Co. They are
well worth winning and there will
undoubtedly be lively competition.
The excursions are fixed very low,
so cents for the round trip, and as
trains will run very frequently-ten
down, and every hour coming back
it is safe to predict a jolly time for
the public and big day for the rail
way company.

The New Palace Fence.

The new iron fence for the Palace
arrived by the steamer Australia and
has already been taken to the Palace
yard. The fence, posts, and gates,
all of wrought iron, were enclosed
in 712 packages, and they were all
landed in first class condition. The
Champion Iron Fence Company of
Kenton, Ohio, T. S. A, were the
manufacturers of the fence, whose
ornamental designs especially re-
painted and gilded, will excel any
thing of the kind in this kingdom.
The Pacific Hardware Company has
fulfilled it's contract faithfully,
and has handed the fence, etc, over
TO the Government. The work Of
putting up the fence will probably
begin very soon, and when completed
it will greatly enhance the beauty of
the Palace grounds.

GHOSTS ON HA WATI.
Deputy Sheriff HOokunui Tells
q Strange Story.

On Ii moonlight night last week,
Deputy Sheriff Hookunui was driv
ing ia brake with his little son, in
Waimea, on his way to his home,
near the edge of the woods. He
says that, while still some distance
from home, he saw a strange object
moving on the road in front of them.
He thought at once of akua lapu
(ghosts), and was seized with terror.
The thing, whatever it was, came
nearer and stood erect before him in
the road. The little boy was too ig-
norant to be afraid of ghosts Che was
kind of rationalist), and did not
scare worth a cent. Hookunui,
whose tongue claye to the roof of his
mouth, managed to calculate few
words, but received no reply. He
happened to have supply of opelu,
a kind of fish, with him, with which
he proceeded to test the substantial
ity of the apparition by hurting them
at him. The latter, however, had
soul above fish, and took no notice.
A moment later Hookunui was
thrown violently out of the brake,
which passed over him. He claims
that the ghost slapped him in the
face.
This story may not be true, but
Hookunui cannot be persuaded that
costs are not as real as poi and fish.

.SPYING ON THE ARlSTocRAcY,
An Alleged Anarchist Servant Girl or
ganization.

An Alleged Anarchist Servant Girl or
ganization.
MINNEAPOLIS, May 12.-The servant spy
case" tried yesterday in the municipal
court is attracting wide attention. The
case grew ont of the attempt of Catharine
Olsen to collect damages from Mrs. w. L.
Harris, the wife of a leading merchant,
for slander. Mrs. Harris admits having
suspected the girl of thievery and sets up
counter claim to the effect that the girl
was hired by an anarchistic organization
to play the spy in the families of the rich.
Direct Testimony of Mr. Harris.
Mr.. Harris on the stand testified that
the girl had confessed to him that she had
left his employ at the command of the
Junior Alliance" by which she was en-
ployed at so week. She explained that
she was rarely permitted to remain in one
place more than three weeks, and that she
was ordered to Duluth. She admitted to
him that her work was to spy in the fam
lilies of the aristocrats and to report on
their manner of living, ETC. With this
showing the defense rested and the pros e.
cution called the girl in rebuttal.
Somebody Vigorously Prevaricates-
On cross-examination Miss johnson said
that she had told Mr.. Harris that she be-
longed to the Junior knights of Labor, but
it was merely an excuse to get away from
the place, as she was doing the work of
two girls at the time. AS to the rest she
denied everything and simply reduced the
matter to a question of veracity between
herself and MIR. Harris. In his charge Judge
Elliot instructed the jury not to consid-
der the anarchist spy evidence at all The
case went to the jury at $40, and after half
an hour deliberation a verdict was re-
turned for the plaintiff for one cent
damages
