AN URGENT NEED.

Sequachee wants today and
wants it badly, a road up from
the centre Of the town to the

spring had the matter looked in
to and has been we'll posted as
to the cost of the construction OF
the road, but as yet there is
no sign of it being built.
The waiting, incessant wait-
ing for everything is tiresome,
and discouraging, and if persist
ed in may prove d boomerang
which will have Its effect.

BETRAYED BY HIS HAND

Lightning's Victim Recognized by the Man

to take a seat in the car just behind plain

There was nothing unusual about that cir

never have noticed whether / sat behind q

of no greater consequence than the colored
mans placing his hand upon the back Of
the seat In which he sat.
"The train had nearly reached Tucson
when the colored man happened to throw
his right arm over the back of the seat,
with his hand in plain view, and was al
most thunderstruck at what l saw. could
scarcely believe my eyes and eagerly leaned
forward to get closer look ut the hand
and be sure that was not the victim Of an
optical illusion. l satisfied myself that
there was no mistake. The third and fourth

white as lady's, and white streak over
an inch wide ran along the back Of his
hand and up his arm as far as could see.

made any effort to find him outside OF the
city and had never seen or heard of him
until that day. When faced him, he rec

pa,ted For Catfish and caush. an Owl.

A man of unquestioned veracity
vouches for the truth Of this fish story;
His friend, who lives few miles in the
country, set line for catfish one day
In the morning when he went after the
fish he found them in abundance. and
on one line he found large owl that
must have been a terror TO birds and
fishes when alive. The line was wound
around the body and the neck of the
owl, and the fish bore marks Of the owls
talons, showing that the owl had caught
the fish after the hook had caught it.
and in its efforts to fly away with the
fish it had been ensnared by the line,
after which the fish had its inning by
drowning the owl.
At any ratio the owl was dead, and the
fish, though disfgured, was still in the
swim and playing the line with vigoI
that caused the line to bob up and down
with the irregularity of the cotton mar
ket. The drowned owl is on exhibition
as witness to the truth Of the story
and the fish, though the finest Of the
catch, escaped the frying pan, and now
has steady job us an owl catcher. Thu

A FIRE LAST NIGHT.
ON KAAHuMANU STREET IN THE
HEART OF TOWN.
Probably Incendiary Suspect Ar
rested-Reports.

The alarm of fire which sounded
at 7 o'clock Friday evening caused
considerable excitement on the
streets. Many rumors filled the
air, and the telephone at first gave
it out that the fire was near the
Post Office. This was miscon-
struded by many, and the word
went around that the Post Office
was on fire. In very short time
a large crowd had assembled at the
corneroi Merchant and Kaahunanu
streets, as the fire proved to be i'll
the wooden Office building on Kaa-
humanu street, next to Schaffer &
Co. The building is an old frame
but was i'll good repair. 1t belongs
to Mrs. T. r. Foster, and was oc-
cupied by several lawyers and in
surance agents, among them being
w. c. Parke, ]. K. Hookana Enoch
Johnson, f. J. Tesla, ]. +. Colburn,
Antoine Rosa, The Hawaiian III
vestment Co., and others.
The prompt arrival of the firemen
saved the building from being a
total loss, although it is very badly
damaged on the inside. 1t was
hard hours work for the fremen, as
the smoke was intense and suffiucat-
ing.
This morning Mr.. Foster was
seen by a representative Of the
STAR and the following informa-
ton was gathered: That the build
was insured for $4,000, with a COM
pany represented by Schaffer & Co.,
and the damages were estimated at
about $1,000. He could not say
whether it would be repaired or
that a new brick building would
take the place of the old frame.
That the place was fired by all
incendiary, is almost an assured
fact.
J. K. Nakookoo, formerly Enoch
Johnson's clerk, is under arrest
charged with the crime.
a man was seen leaving the
premises by Deputy Marshal
Brown, Minister King, Captain
Campbell and others.

ACCIDENT ON KING STREET.

Mrs. Andrews Thrown From surry
Aud BADLY Injured.
About 9;3o this morning, Mrs.
Andrews and another lady had
made a call at Mrs. Williams OH
King street. While attempting to
turn around after getting seated in
their surrey, the horse became
frightened and cramped the
vehicle, upsetting it and
throwing the ladies out.
Mrs. Andrews was severely injured,
having her collar bone broken. The
other lady escaped uninjured. This
is the second accident with the
same horse that Mrs. Andrews has
experienced. 1t is thought that
there are no internal injuries to
the lady. She is the mother Of
Mrs. Fisher and Mrs. Ables. The
place of the mishap was directly
opposite No. Engine house, and
the fire boys lent their assistance
