The holiday season has been
one of exceptional and unex-
pected prosperity to US. For
weeks past we have been call
ing attention to fancy goods
as well as those Of an ornamen-
tai character. We might have
advertised strictly useful arti-
Giles, but people as a rule,
draw the line at cumbersome
presents placed in the hosiery
hung beside the hearth. A
Jewel stove, for instance,
would be injurious to the aver
age Honolulu stocking, but it
would have been most ac-
ceptable in the homes of a
great many people here.
We have just received a
very large invoice of these
stoves in all sizes, from the
smallest to the largest made
at the factory. Our prices for
these stoves are so reasonable
that one of them should be in
every home In Honolulu.
Our method of selling to
island customers is an innova-
ton to the people of the islands;
the price Of the stove in our
store is the same at any ship
ping port in the islands-we
pay the freight from Honolulu.

Recent i a magistrate at Sydney
n. :. w, objected strongly to the
withdrawal of the prosecution in
a case of larceny for which he
had issued a warrant. He said
that sort of thing could not be
allowed. If it were, the admins
tration Of justice would be farce.
To allow the charge to be with
drawn would be compromising a
felony, if such had been commit
ted. There has been a good deal
of the practice thus condemned
by the Sydney magistrate in
Honolulu - 10, these many
years-chiedy in the way of ar
rangements winked at for having
poor Chinese made the scapegoats
for their richer and frequently
more guilty countrymen.

have been extinguished, but that the
man was afraid to allow his team 10
stand.
Several eyewitnesses claim that the
fire was started by q simple e-minded q
youth who lives at the corner OF Twenty
third and Glowner streets. eugene
Maxwell was passing the place just after
the fire had broken out and stopped the
imbecile from crashing in among the
blazing bales. The boy was insistent,
and said he must 60 back and get his
pipe, which he had dropped when the
flames flashed up. Mr.. Maxwell turned
the boy over to a deputy constable. who
questioned him closely, and finally re-
leased him, knowing that he could be
found when wanted.
An alarm was turned in from the box
at the corner of Main and washington
streets, to which the department re-
sponded in short order. They could do
little, however, save allow the fire to
burn itself out. No buildings were near,
and the hay burned briskly, lighting the
sky SO that people several milessawav
knew a big fire was in progress. All
night long the pile smouldered now and
then dying down to bed of reddene6
emberS.
The ownership Of the hay is somewhat
clouded by doubt. 1t having been in liti
cation for q year or two. The State
Loan and Trust company is said to have
a mortgage on it, and probably carried
sufficient insurance to compensate them
for their loss. 1t has been piled in the
same place for long time and has been
a rendezvous for tramps, who have
given the police no end of trouble. A
portion of the hay was so badly dam
aged by age and exposure to the weather
that it was fit for bedding only. 1t
was piled in two stacks, protected by
roofs, the smaller stacks also being
sided in. Everything will be total loss.

sECoND-sToRY BURGLARS
The Residence of Capt. Charles Bal
Visited by Thieves

The residence of Capt. Charles Ball at
Adams and Flower streets was burglar
izel last evening shortly after I o'clock
by thieves who gained access through a
second-story window. Mrs. Ball had oc-
casion to go up to her bedroom after sup
per for her glasses, at which time every
thing was all right. Half an hour later
she again went up to the room, but to her
surprise found both doors locked from
the inside. ,
She Immediately notified her husband
and an investigation was made. En-
trance to the room was gained by Capt.
Ball, who crawled out on the balcony and
raised window. The doors were unlock
ed and lights produced. A glance was
sufficient to indicate the nature of the
visit which had been made, for the con-
tents of closets, bureau drawers, ETC.,
were scattered over the floor indiscrim-
inately. A window on the side of the
room was open and a ladder against the
wall showed how the burglars got in.
just what plunder was secured by the
thieves is unknown, but a large amount
of Mrs. Balls jewelry is included in the
list. 1t is supposed that the house
breakers were still in the room when
Mrs. Ball attempted to enter, but made
their escape while she was calling the
captain. The police We're at once noti-
fed but there is small hope of captur-
ing the daring thieves.

FELL A VICTIM TO THE SURF
Alexander Flood Drowned at
Long Beach
THE GEDNEY'S BOAT UPSET
And Six Men Had to Struggle With the
Waves
Five Managed to Swim to Shore, but
Flood Turned His Face Towards
His Ship and Was Drowned

LONG BEACH. Dec. 26.-(Special to
The Herald "A terrible tragedy was
witnessed on the beach today. which
resulted in the loss of one sturdy young
sailors life and endangered the lives
of five others.
About 8 p. m. this afternoon q boat
from the United States survey steamer
Gedney, was seen approaching the shore,
manned by six sailors. The crew had
been sent on work connected with the
inquiry of the harbor commissioners, at
present in session at Los Angeles, to
establish a sounding station at Long
Beach
The surf was low at the time.
AS the boat approached the shore
she rode on the edge of a breaker, the
craft was turned broadside by the swell
and was struck by a second breaker and
capSized, the six sailors being precipi-
tated into the water.
Two of them promptly swan for shore
The balance apparently made up their
minds to stay with the boat. Several
of them succeeded in getting rid of their
long rubber boots and eventually gained
terra firma.
Alexander Flood alone, lusty young
Norwegian, aged "a years, who has put
in six years service on the Gedney,
seemed to be dazed by the catastrophe,
and was last seen apparently heading
for his ship.
When the survivors got ashore and
counted their crew Flood alone was
missing.
1t Is presumed that he was struck
either by the boat itself or by one of the
heavy pieces of timber which she was
carrying ashore.
A scene of intense excitement was wit
messed on the beach as soon as news of
the accident had been made known.
UP tD.-dark tonight Floods body has
not been discovered:
MOURNED AT SAN PEDRO
SAN PEDRO, Dec. 26.-(Special to
The Herald. Reconsideration was gen.
eral here when the news of Alexander
Floods death by drowning was received
here Flood was we'll known here and
many are mourning his sudden death.
A watch is being maintained along
shore for traces of the drowned body.
An extraordinary tale Of escape Is
told by another of the Gedney's crew,
Peter Larsen.
When the boat capsized, Larsen found
himself. on recovering consciousness, in
darkness underneath the boat, still hang
ing to one of the seats. He hung on until
rescued.

MOURNED AT SAN PEDRO
HIS SKULL FRACTURED.
Antonio Riva, an Also Street Butcher,
Seriously Injured.

Antonio Riva, a butcher, who runs a
small shop at 365 Also street, lies in the
city receiving hospital with fractured
skull. which was sustained yesterday
afternoon by being thrown out of his
wagon by a frightened horse. Accompa-
MED by an Italian known as Charlie,
who works for him, Riva was driving up
Macy street near the bridge when the
horse became frightened and cramped
the vehicle. throwing both occupants out
with great violence, then running away.
Riva was laid out unconscious, with
two terrible wounds on the top of his
head where he had struck on some sharp
substance. Charlie was a little more
fortunate, escaping with a damaged
countenance, broken wrist and bad
ly bruised side. He went home and call
ed a doctor, but Riva was taken to the
hospital.
DR.. Ainsworth attended him and found
the skull cracked in two places, al
though slightly. The wounds were tenn
porarly dressed and the patient put to
bed to await more thorough examina-
tion when he is better able to bear 1t. 1t
Is possible that an operation may have
to be performed to save the mans life.

yesterday morning filed complaint,

stracted from bag containing $780,
The article was headed "a Roll Of Gold
Missing" and gave In detail the al
legged facts pertaining to the loss of the
money and subsequent actions, as told
by Mrs. Delisle.
Gen. tombstone Jones, counsel for the
plaintiff, has carried the complaint
around in his pocket since the date of its
issuance and awaited the disposal of the
charge against Mrs. Delisle of having
made threats to kill Mrs. Smith before
fling 1t. On Saturday afternoon Just

as his opinion that rs.Smith, the plain
till. need apprehend no danger from de-
PENDANT.
A warrant was Immediately issued on

legged defamation OF character.
