A sad accident occurred at Spreck
e!svilie last Monday, 18th inst,
when Chinaman was run over by
one of the plantation locomotives
and instantly killed. He must have
come out suddenly from the cane
field through which the train was
passing, and walked along the track
without observing the approaching
train, himself unobserved by the en-
gineer, who presumably just stopped
down for moment To shovel Goals
into the fireplace. A coroner's jury
was called in the afternoon, but was
only able to confirm the fact of the
Celestial's being killed, and that no
blame attached to the engineer.
The residents of Waikiki district
are deeply interested in the legisla
tive proceedings of late and anxiousIy
awaiting the fate of the bills pending
before the House to establish water
works in Waikiki and Kahului to
appropriate q SUN for building de-
cent road between kahului and Ma
kawea on the Wailuku beach and to
change the tenure of the jury court
from Lahaina to Wailuku Both of
the former propositions are strongly
recommended and endorsed by the
whole community as being of imper-
alive necessity for the district. The
taxpayers hold rightly enough that
it would be far better to eXpend tie
sums necessary for these improve
ments in this way than to send the
band on junketing tour to the
Worlds Fair next year and have the
country, already poor enough, pay
for their fun. The band is really
excellent and everything considered
just cause of pride to every patrio-
tic islander, but will not be Sin it"
with the crack bands of the United
States. AS for the proposed change
of court from Lahaina to Waikiki, it
is measure of so long standing
and so obviously right and necessary
that it is wonder any opposition
can be raised against it in the House
or outside.
The schooner Anna, Capt. Will
liams, arrived from San Francisco
via Moss Landing, Cal, Thursday,
DIST inst, with cargo of machinery
and fertilizer for Ii. G. and S. Co.
The fertilizer is compound of lime
and beet refuse from the Watsonville
factories and probably the first of
the kind ever imported here.
The weather is still exceedingly
hot, dry and dusty, and the much
needed rain fails TO come and bring
relief to the thirsty earth.
