RECAPTURED.
A Notorious Chinese Convict in the
Tolls Again.

a notorious Chinese Criminal
named Kun Wun escaped from
prison about two months ago, while
undergoing a sentence of four
years for burglary. The police
from time to time have heard of
his whereabouts, but up to yester-
day were unable to recapture him.
Wun first came into prominence
about three years ago, when he was
arrested for having opium in his
possession. Harry Juen made the
capture, and narrowly escaped
being murdered by a knife at the
hands of the bloodthirsty mongol-
ian. The Chinaman made a slash
with the weapon and struck the
back of the officer, cutting through
his clothes, but fortunately making
only a slight wound. This affair
happened at Thomas Square. The
Chinaman served term for this
ofense, and shortly after he re-
gained his liberty he was arrested
for entering the home of Hon. Paul
Neumann, where he stole a gold
watch, the property of Mr.. Neu-
mann. Wun was sentenced to four
years hard labor for the latter
offense.
Previous to the last criminal
affair a number of houses at Wal
kiki were entered and robbed. The
police are almost certain that Wun
is responsible for the burglaries
that happened about that time and
think he is the man who assaulted
J. F. Brown.
THE ARREST.
About Z o'clock yesterday morn
ing, a telephone message reached
the Police Station with the inform
alton that a man had been shot at
Paul Isenberg's ranch at Waialae
Police Captain Hopkins and Depu-
ty Marshal Wilder FASTENED to the
scene, and instead of finding dead
man, discovered live Chinaman
bound hand and foot. They i'm.
mediately recognized the roped
prisoner as an escaped convict and
made inquiries. A Chinese ser
want employed by Mr.. Isenberg
stated that he found Wun on the
property at an early hour, and
asked him what he was doing
there. The Chinese replied thai
he was a wood chopper, and was
looking for some drinking water
The questioner then called the
escaped convict a liar, when the
latter flashed a pistol and attempt
ed to shoot his countryman. The
servant made a bold fight, ano
finally succeeded in getting the
would be,mgrde s4 right thumb
II: eopIe on the ranch hearing
the loud cries of Wun hurried t.
the scene, and when matters were
explained, they secured their pris
oners as above stated, and informed
the authorities.
Andrew Fisher and another es
capped convict were caught the
other day and, when brought tc
the Station, told a story about two
Chinese escapes that were living
in a cave at Diamond Head
Fishers pal has confessed that he
and Fisher occupied the cave, and
that they robbed Mrs. Lemons
house on last Monday evening.

To Test a Diamond.

Here is an easy means or to*.---4
11B5Hd is genuine or not. Pierce a
hole in card with needle and
then look at the hole through the
stone. If false you will see two
holes, but if you have real dia-
mond only single hole will APP
pear. You may also make the test
in another way Put your finger
behind the stone and look at it
through the diamond as through
a magnifying glass. If the stone
is genuine you will be unable to
distinguish the grain of the skin,
but with false stone this will be
plainly visible. Furthermore, look
ing through a real diamond the
setting is never visible, whereas it
is with false stone Elk.

1t is well that American inven-
tive genius in now turned towards
shipbuilding. The possibilities of
invention in that line, as in other
lines, are boundless. We may yet
construct new kinds of steamships,
or electric ships, through which the
supremacy of American commerce
on the worlds seas, and on many
of its lakes and rivers, will be
firmly established.

FROM THE LAND OF FLOWERS.
DR.. Dickinson Talks About Orange Groves
and Early Vegetables.

Rev. DR.. a. L. Dickinson and wife have
returned TO the city after spending nearly
three weeks IN Florida.
To "A DISPATCH reporter who asked about
things down there DIR. Dickinson SAID last
night: " ] have never before seen so many
tourists in Florida. The hotels are we'll
nigh filed, and the crowd seems 10 be
growing larger in all the more popular
places. The orange crop has paid very
well where the growers sold very early or
very lat3. | saw a grove on which there
were enough 20 fill 1000 boxes. and they
had lust been sold at two dollars a box, to
be delivered at the depot. A few weeks
earlier they would have brought about half
that sum. The truth is that the orange
business is fast passing into few hands.
They are buying out the small groves, and
often at much less than has been expended
upon them. A lew years ago Mr.. joan b..
Stetson. Of Philadelphia, began operations
near De Land. and now he has 400 acres in
groves and he is yet buying other groves.
The Rockerfellers have bought 100000
grove near Cltra.
In every direction. DR. Dickinson con-
tinued. You Will see evidences of the
growing faith of the North IN Florida,
both as 90 oranges and phosphates, to say
nothing of the early vegetables. The de-
structlon of early vegetables by the frosts
OF last week was appalling. L happened
TO be IN the section Of Florida most given
TO this trade when the frost came, and had
an opportunity 10 see the widespread de-
stTuction which was occasoned. 1t IL bad
for Florida, but good Tor the Virginia
truckers. Over and over again | was
asked: Why don't you make Richmond II
winter resort?' 1t can be done If our peo-
pie will only turn their attention TO II and
make the necessary preparations. We can
rs well as not have 5000 northerners spend
ing four months Of the year III Richmond"
