ing been exhausted, the Court adj
journed after having sent out for fifty
talesmen, and it was not until a
quarter after 3 O'Clock the following
day that jury was obtained and the
trial commenced.
1t is quite remarkable the amount
of interest and feeling this case has
excited amongst the natives and Of
anything but friendly nature, as
far rs the principal defendant-the
young woman Pulolo--is concerned,
as evinced by the attacks made upon
her while on her way from the depot
to the jailWednesday morning. Wal
luku is thronged with meu and women
from all parts of Maui, Lanai and
Molokai, who have come prepared to
remain and watch the proceedings.
The courtroom is packed, all the
approaches thereto are jammed and
groups of natives may be seen seated
upon the grounds about.
The prosecution is conducted by
Hon. Antoine Rosa, assisted by Mr..
Gardner Wilder, and the defense by
Messrs. w. c. Achi and j. l.. Kaulu-
kou.
Friday, 4 p. m.-The case is
closed. The Crown mol. pros'd five

A very interesting experiment in
producing rain by explosives was
made by the Wailuku Sugar Co., un-
der the personal direction of Mr. III.
H. Plemmer, chief luna, Wednesday
afternoon, the Sth inst. Fifty-four
charges of giant powder were ex-
ploded on the mountain next to lao
Valley, and heavy rain fell in little
less than two hours afterward, con-
tinuing through the afternoon and
evening. Mr.. Plemmer informed
your correspondent that the cost of
materials used in this experiment was
trifle less than Sc, and that further
experiments would follow from time
to time.
Friday evening, June 10th, at Z
o'clock, Mary Ellen Lydia, eldest
daughter of Judge and Mrs. Charles
Copp, was married to Mr.. w. B.
Hardey of Hawaii, lat the residence of
her parents, Makawao, Maui. The
Rev. Mr.. Kitcat of Lahaina of1iciat-
ed. Afeer the ceremony dancing was
INDUCED in, to be followed on the
18th by grand luau in honor of the
newly married couple.
The bride has been well and favor.
ably known in this community since
early childhood. She resigned the
position of first assistant teacher in
the Government school at Makawao,
which position she filled with great
credit to herself and to the entire
| e. nj. of al 4 A
young lady of an exemplary char
acter, prepossessing appearance and
gentle, winning manners, most
affectionate and dutiful daughter,
beloved and esteemed by all who
have the pleasure of her acquaint-
ance, we wish her long and happy
life and congratulate Mr.. Hardey in
the possession of such a treasure of
which his life knows no greater.
We notice that the Advertiser of
the 7th, with its customary reliability
has married the young lady above to
gentleman with the euphonious
name of Smith. This is mistake,
dear reader.
Saturday the 1th will be generally
observed as holiday devoted tc
parties, balls, luaus, picnics, etc.
The East Maui Polo Club have q
tournament on that day. There are
a number of other festive gatherings
on the tapis, among which may be
mentioned grand picnic to Eleile
Valley given by the scholars of the
Waihee Government School, fol-
which extensive preparations have
been made and large number Of
invitations issued.
Our attention has been called to {
public nuisance that should be abated
at once. The japanese residents OF
Wailuku are in the habit of bathing
and making their toilets in thu
streams by the road-sides and in pub
lie, in broad daylight in puris nutur
aAJus, with not even the conventions
fig-leaf, often accompanying the dis
gushing exhibition of their bodies
with improper gestures when ladies
and children are passing. 1t i
hoped that this complaint may reacl
the eye of our bran new sheriff, who
the ladies feel confident, will put ,
stop to this outrage upon publ
