The death Of George w. Yarick
occurred at his late residence in
; Waikiki early Thursday morning,
the 22d instant. He had been for a
long time great sufferer from kid
ney trouble, and his recent demise
was surely happy release from a
life of pain. Mr.. Yarick was born in
Fairfield, Portage county, Ohio, some
81 years ago. He served his country
faithfully for three years as soldier
during the late war. He has been a
resident of the islands for, the last
ten years, and has been engaged in
the harness and saddlery business in
Waikiki. He was OF quiet DISPOSE
ton, honest and straightforward in
his dealings an industrious, law
abiding citizen, and a first class
workman at his trade. He leaves a
widow, the landlady of Wailuku's
only boarding house, and one grown
up son to mourn his loss.
The funeral occurred at his late
residence during Friday afternoon,
the 23d instant, DIR. Fraser, of Paia,
officiating, assisted by Rev. Kapu, of
Wailuku.
THE EPIDEMIC.
"La grippe. still grasps our little
island tightly. Hama, Waikiki, Maka-
wac and Lahaina-our four districts
are all afflicted, and the humps"
are playing a strong second to the
epidemic with French name. The
latter attacks even adults, and it is
rather an amusing spectacle to see a
man of prominent pk yslcal proper
tions with badly swollen jowle. La
haina is the most fortunate, having
the fewest cas- es OF the two popular
diseases. New victims are constantly
reported in Wailuku, and Maka-
wac has been fiercely attacked
during the past week, but fifteen of
the twenty pupils and teachers still
remaining ut Maunaolu Seminary are
suffering, and forty pupils of the
Makawao School, as we'll as many
children in other schools, are on the
sick list. It is probable that quiet,
transformations exhibitions will be
presented by number of schools on
Maui in July.
