A water tender from the U. S. S..
Adams was arrested on Saturday
night and lodged in the Station
House, charged with assault with
deadly weapon.
The mans name is Mullen, and
he had gone down to Moanalua on
Saturday afternoon, bent on having
good time. He was in the house
of a native, and was paying more
attention to one of his hosts female
relatives than the former thought
compatible with good breeding.
The woman also seemed smitten
with the blue-jacket's charms, and
the man objected seriously. He
objected in vain, however, as Null
len paid no attention whatever to
his remonstrances.
Things went on from bad to
worse, and at last Mullen thought
it was time to show the jealous ma
tive that he was a lady-killer par
excellence. So he drew an ugly
looking 44-caliber English bulldog
revolver from his pocket and pulled
the trigger, pointing the gun at his
host.
Fortunately for the latter the
pistol contained only one cartridge
which did not happen to be in the
chamber on which the trigger de-
scended. This was all that saved
his life, and realizing this, he de-
cided that he would take no chances
on having another shot fired at
him and took to his heels.
Mullen meanwhile calmy stepped
into his hack, which was waiting
at the door, and drove back to
town, where he added to the cargo
of liquor that he already had on
board. He fourished his pistol in
the Anchor saloon, and threatened
to shoot anyone who was in need of
such attention. His offer not being
accepted, he gracefully submitted
to being arrested by Captain Ka-
hookano, who escorted his charge to
the station where he found his ma
tive host in the act of swearing out
a warrant for his arrest. The case
will come up in the District Court
this morning.

"How Frenchr' was probably the ex-

read of the dramatic suicide of the young
woman at Clichy, France, the other day.

waving French and Russian flags, and

A gentleman in Hamakua, wri-
ting privately to one of his cores
pondents in this city, manages to
convey some hitherto unpublished
news of pretty lively character.
Some of the office-holders on Ha-
wall are evidently not as thorough
ly in accord as they profess to be,
and the expectation of seeing Mrs.
Dominis made into a queen again
seems to have led them to show
their hands little too soon. Here
is the correspondents account OF
it:
The last news from the Coast just
came in the nick of time. That is,
had it been delayed for one or two
the Government officials in this dis
trict, Hamakua, would have thrown
off the thin mask OF loyalty to the
present Government, which they have
been wearing, and come out as true
blue royalists, as they really are at
heart.
On the 18th of November, there was
a grand luau and jubilee generally, in
Waipio. Its Significance was in the
fact that the promoters firmly bellev-
ed the ex-queen would be restored on
that day, and it was that restoration
which was being celebrated.
The luau was attended by our De-
putty Sheriff Moanauli and family,
deputy Tax Collector Chas. Williams
and family, District Judge Edwin
Thomas and family, together with
sundry policemen, who all celebrated
the occasion.
AS YOU know, friend Il. III. Davies
has been through here, and L hear
talked little else than politics. He is,
twas at that time) perfectly certain
the queen is to be restored, so certain
is he, aud talked so plausibly that
individuals in this district, became
either his converts or so doubtful they
will not talk.
According to Davies one of the first
moves after restoration will be the de-
portation of l.. A. Thurston and S. Z.
Bishop. This part of the programme
was told some one in confidence, and
leaked out.
1t would appear to me, that the
Government would be perfectly justi-
fed in putting a quietus on such talk
from Sucn HAIL. even IL IL OcC<tuIc
necessary to administer dose of his
own medicine.
/ emphasize the such a man, be-
cause he really has considerable in
fiuence. Similar expressions from a
great many others, would amount to
nothing.
Since his visit, and that of some of
his travelling employees, there are
quite a number of people through
here, who profess to believe in the
justice of the ex-queen's cause, who
did not before.

That Was the Way the Cornerstone of the
Staten Island Church Was Laid.

That Was the Way the Cornerstone of the
Staten Island Church Was Laid.
The laying of a cornerstone at night is
the novel sight that was witnessed ct
Stapleton, N Y. the other evening, when
the construction of the new First Pres
byterian church was formally inaugu-
rated amid the glare of torches and cleo
trio lights.
The First Presbyterian church of Sta
pleton is one of the wealthiest and most
fashionable congregations on Staten Is
land, but it has hitherto worshiped IN Il
small and unpretentious edifice. Recent
ly il decided to erect new and hand
some church, to cost a large sum of
money, and the members hit upon the
novel plan of laying the cornerstone at
night to make the occasion memorable.
Electric lights strung were from di.-
ferent points and in such a manner as to
throw the full glare directly on the spot
where the cornerstone was placed. AS
the illumination, however, was hardly
strong enough to read by, number of
people stood about the officiating clergy
men holding pine torches, thus enabling
the services to be carried out without
hitch.
Owing to the novelty of the idea of
LAYING a cornerstone at night, there was
a large attendance at the ceremony,
prominent society people from all parts
of the island being present.-New York

MISS ALBU'S BENEFIT.
Saturdays Concert Greatly Enjoyed
by the Audience.

Although the audience at the
Opera House on Saturday night
was not a very large one, those who
were present enjoyed the concert to
the utmost. The Misses Albu have
won the hearts of the music-loving
public of Honolulu, and very de-
servedly.
Miss Albu, to whom the concert
was given as benefit, was received
with a prolonged round of APP
plause when she appeared on the
stage. Her first number was "Aloha
De-" with the Quintette Club assist
ing in the chorus. Miss Albu has
sung this song at two of the former
concerts, and each time it has been
enthusiastically received, but it is
doubtful if there was more APP
plause on either of the other occa-
sions than there was Saturday night.
Several people have said that she
sings it with better pronunciation
VI Vic Law ohd LII q
much better way generally than
any other foreign singer who has
ever appeared here. Miss Rose
Albu repeated "Like no a Like"
which she sang for the first time at
the Kawaiahao Church concert.
The success of the evening was
the duet from Bellini's Norma,
"Hear Me, Norma" The music is
exquisite, and was finely rendered
by the sisters. The final number
ON the programme was Mendels-
sohD's beautiful duet 'I Would that
My Love-"
The Quintette Club, Signor Bar
sotti, Mr.. w. j. Cuelho, and other
local talent helped make the pro-
gramme the good one it was. 1t is
much to be hoped that like bene-
fit will be rendered to Miss Rose
Albu before the artistes take their
departure for the Coast.
