Twas No Fire.

An alarm of fire was turned IN from
No. 8 Engine House about 1918 Q clock
last night. The whistle called for the
corner of King and Maunakea streets.
but the excitement was at the corner OF
Hotel and Maunakea streets. Some
natives and Cinnamon saw smoke is
suing from the veranda of the upper
story of the mauka Eva corner and
concluded that something was burning.
1t turned out TO be nothing but stove
which some Cinnamon had fixed up on
the veranda. They were just doing
some cooking and that was all.
