THE COFFEE BATTLE.
John GaSpar is Charged With Being
the Cause of it.

John Gaspar, Portuguese, has
been committed for trial on a charge
of instigating some japanese to
fight. He had a hearing at Hoo
kena the other day. He is now out
on bonds. Gaspar was mixed up
in the fight that took place at Keel,
South Kona, on the Ord inst, when
one Japanese was killed, another
wounded, and a policeman badly
injured. The injured Japanese was
brought to town yesterday to have
ball extracted from one of his
shoulders.
WhenMarshal Hitchcock reached
Hookena, he found the people
there in very excited frame of
mind, fearing that the friends of
the Japanese prisoners would at
tempt some rash act, but the Mar
shall smoothed matters over, and
when he left everything was quiet.
Eleven japanese, who took part
in the battle, were placed under
arrest, but four were dismissed.
The others will have to stand trial
on two charges, one of assault and
the other for resisting officers.
In Gaspar's case the natives
claimed that he told the japanese
to resist the officers and to kill
them if necessary. On the other
hand, the japanese say that he did
not give them any such advice.
Two of the policemen have been
arrested and charged with assault
with a weapon; the third officer,
who was injured, has not been ar
rested, pending his recovery.

When

A man strikes red
pepper in his soup he receives an
impression. and impressions are
lasting. How can we impress it
upon you that it is really your duty
TO trade with US, that our prices and
service are better than elsewherei
Perhaps we can impress you in this
way: Money talks, talks cents too.
1t persuades the stubborn and con-
vinces the skeptic. We know of no
such pleader as LOW PRICE
and we have tried TO make its voice
heard in every nook and corner of
our store. 1t would only tire you If
we gave you a list of the many
different articles we have just receiv-
ed per "Senta" from England, Amy
Turner" from New York, and the
"Rithet' and Australia" from San
Francisco, but we have the goods,
and if you call on Us you will get an
impression or two. First, they are
FIRST-CLASS and second, that our
prices are LOW.
For that tired feeling-not Hoods
Sarsaparilla, but more exercise-a
gun, rife, or a boat if you take it
out of doors, or dumbbells, chest
weights, etc, if indoors. Our shot
guns range from SIP to sos in price,
but we find the S35 gun gives just
about the right amount of exercise
for this climate-that is we Judge so
from the way they sell. After using
one of our Winchester Military
Rifles till you can get inside an g.
inch BULLS eye, s out of 10 shots, you
will find not only is the tired feeling
gone, but you have learned to be
cool and careful-things that will
serve you we'll in other ways than
rifle shooting.
Have you heard of the story of the
Irishman? He bought apples for one
cent and sold them for two and said
he made one per cent. profit. We do
not commit business suicide by try
ing to make the Irishman's one per
cent.
If you prefer boating and yachting
to shooting, you will find we have
most of the material needed to
either build yacht or boat or keep
it in repair when built, and you do
not have to buy any more than you
need, as we have everything handy to
retail as we'll as wholesale.
BETTER fence wire is now made
than ever before and as POOR fence
wire is now made as ever has been
before. The BEST can be had right
here in Honolulu, and-yes-the
WORST. We sell the GOOD KIND.
Wait for our remarks about barbed
wire. We have plenty now, but will
soon have lot of the best in the
world and it will pay you to wait
for it.

WITH A DIRK.
a Chinese Slabs a Policeman at
Hama, on Maui.

At Hama, Maui, one day last
week, a policeman was stabbed
with a dirk knife by Chinese, but
1t is not known whether the man was
mortally injured or not. Marshal
Hitchcock heard of the assault yes
terday morning when the w. G.
Hall stopped at Maalaea Bay, but
he did not hear all the particulars.
He learned this much, however.
that the police swooped down on
Chinese store in search of opium
and they were rewarded by finding
a tin. While they were in the
house they got in an alteration
with two Chinese and the fight was
brought to a close by one of the
mongolians, who whipped out a
dirk knife, and stabbed one of the
officers in the bowels. Two Chi
nese were arrested for the crime.
