a solid financial basis, some promin-
ent Honolulu and Maui people hav-
ing recently invested in it's stock. 1t
not only controls considerable of the
best taro land on Maui, but owns
fine valley in Molokai, and has an
arrangement with other producers of
taro there for the purchase of their
products. On Monday, the 4th inst,

The Maui Cattle Trust are soon to
open butcher shop in Waikiki, of
which, it is reported, that R. Won
Tempsky, Esq, is to have charge.
The Trust already have two flourish
ing markets in Makawao and two in
Hama.
Recently a rife club has been
formed in Hama district, of which
MIR. w. Won Graevemeyer, formerly
captain of the Makawao club, is

Last Saturday, in Lahaina, the
ball game resulted in victory for
the Lahainaites, the score being II
to against the Waikapus, DIR.
Davidson, of Lahaina, acting as um-
pire. The defeat was owing to the
absence of Captain Edmunds and
several of the best players of Wal
kapu. 1t is to be hoped that the
latter association will not long re-
main in the SOUP" but will brace
up " and win the next rubber.

being painted.
Recently Dr. George Herbert and
X. ID. Plemmer, of Waikiki, made a
little hunting excursion to sandy
Olowalu, intending to bag innumer-
able plover with which to regale
Waikiki friends on their return.
They have returned, but plover seem
to be minus quantity, and the
popular question in town is q" How
about those plover ?" Various an
swers are made, that the Kinau was
chartered to take their birds to
Honolulu, fearing to glut the Maui
market with surplus fgame or fear
ing lest they would ruin the diges
ton of their friends, they removed
the temptation as far as possible
from them, etc.

and gives pleasurable social affairs.
