rate not much faster than q man
can walk. Some of the cars had
already passed over the first switch
near the railroad shops when
young Fern ran toward the center
of the train to remove the coupling
pin. In some unaccountable man
ner he was thrown down and the
hind truck of one of the cars pass
ed over both the young mans legs
Just above the knees. He was
dragged along for about ten feet
and his back broken in the dorsal
region.
Just as the truck passed over
his legs Fern gave a terrible cry.
The engine was stopped as soon as
possible but too late to save the
life OF the young man.
DIR. Herbert was telephoned for
Immediately and arrived upon the
scene of the accident before the
man was removed from the track.
He was still alive, but uncon-
scious. After removal to the bag
gage room he was examined. The
cuts in the legs were about two
inches deep and the muscles and
tendons pushed very much ont OF
their normal position. He linger-
ed along for a few moments and
then died.
The body was removed to the
home of his brother, Kapalama,
back of the street car stables. 1t
was thought yesterday that the
body would be sent to Hawaii,
where the father and mother are
residing at present. but the plan
was given up. He will DE buried

Henry Fern had been an en-
ployee of the 0. R. & L. for only
two months, but while in the SER
vice he rose higher and higher in
the estimation of mis- superiors.
He was a steady young man, ready
at all times to do his duty, and
obedient to the orders given him.
Aside from being one of the best
men on the road, he was always
gentlemanly. He will be sadly
missed by all those with whom he
was associated.

HILO ITEMS.

Friday evening, January 18th, a
reception was given to President
Dole in Spreckels' Hall, which had
been most tastefully decorated with
flags, bunting, foliage, plants, ferns
and flowers. At $40 President
Dole took his position in the hall,
attended and assisted by Judge
and Mrs. Austin, Judge and Mrs.
Hapai, Mesdames Townsend, Sever
ance, Jules Richardson and Wilder,
and Messrs. Waterhouse, Iaukea
and Broome, when, for a time, the
ladies and gentlemen of Hawaii
were presented and paid their res

poets to the President. After the
formalities of the reception were
over, dancing was engaged in and
refreshments were served. The, re-
ception was largely attended and
the evening was pleasantly spent
and enjoyed by all.

a lanai from which guests can view
the courts.
The cost OF laying the courts
and preparing the grounds was so
heavy that the possibility OF being
able to build a house seemed very
doubtful to the members OF the
Beretania Tennis Club, until it
was decided that an entertainment
should be given to raise the neces-
sary funds. Mr.. Wray Taylor,
with his usual good nature, under
took to conduct a concert. and
with the kind assistance of Mrs.
Kinney, Miss McGrew, Misses At
kinson and several gentlemen
friends. it was made a complete
success, the net receipts being over
500. As it was to cost between
5000 and $500, the difference was
contributed by members and the
building commenced.
When completed it will present a
rather unique appearance, as it will
be painted dark green with dark
red finishings, and on the roof will
stand a 15-foot flagstaff, from which
will fly the clubs colors-black
and orange.
The Beretania Tennis Club is to
be congratulated on its acquisition,
and the rest of the local clubs can
not feel otherwise than pleased, be-
cause the house is a mark OF per-
manency which goes to guarantee
long life to the club, and conse-
ouent activity, in one of the most
delightful of Honolulu's pastimes.
At an early date the new house
will be "opened" and the clubs
friends entertained, and those who
have SO kindly assisted will be
afforded an opportunity OF seeing
the result of their work. The
building adds much to the appear
ance of the grounds and will be
great convenience to the members.
The Beretania club has some
very good players, and in the tour
nament to take place they should
make a good showing. E. 81.
Wodehouse ranks high among the
tennis players of Honolulu, and, as
he has entered the contest, he will
undoubtedly take prominent
place. He was frequent player
on the McKibbon court few years
ago. and was at that time consid-
cred one of the best players in the
city. He may be quite as good to-
day, as he takes hand every
afternoon in the games on the
Beretania court.
Mr.. B. L. Marx, who has been
selected as Mr.. Warehouses; part
ner in the tournament, is an excel
lent player, having the advantage
of an exceptionally long reach,
which assists him at the net. Like
Mr.. Wodehouse, he excels In
doubles rather in any single con-
test. Together they will make a
strong team.
