NIGHT EXHIBITION.
Magnificent Fireworks on Execu-
tive Grounds-Large Crowd.

Magnificent Fireworks on Execu-
tive Grounds-Large Crowd.
Promptly at 1870 the Hawaiian band
stationed in the band stand in the Elk
ecutive grounds, struck up familiar
air and this was a signal for the man
in charge of the mortars to set the ball
rolling.
The lawn was crowded with groups
of citizens, foreigners and Hawaiians,
and the streets were thronged with
people who for an hour and half
watched one of the prettiest, il not the
most expensive, fireworks exhibition
seen here in years. There were no ex-
pensive set pieces such as were seen
last year, but those that were set off
gave quite as much satisfaction to the
public.
There were $50 bombs of various
kinds, IS dozen rockets and fountains
of different kinds and rs pounds of red
blue and green fire lighted. Some of
the pieces were novel and all were
beautiful.
The success of the fireworks feature
of the day was due to the untiring eff
forts of the chairman J. A. Kennedy
of the committee.

SOME POINTERS.

SOME POINTERS.
George Angus came out winner in the
race, with Giles a close second.
George Martin made the time record,
leading the fourth relay out and finish
ing the five miles in Is: %, or IL seconds
ahead of Sylvester, the next best man
in point of speed. He was obstructed at
the Hotel corner by the Kawaiahao
Seminary girls, but he CALAMITY rode
around them, and then put his nose to
the handle-bar.
The absence OF firm combinations
made the race the most enjoyable that
has been seen here since wheeling be-
came popular.
One of the best features of the race
was the fact that there was an entire
lack of pacing, and each rider seemed
bent upon making the best time.
Walker met with distressing acct
dent on Beretania street, in the neigh
borhood of Thomas Square. Some
young ladies in brake made an at
tempt to cross the street while the
wheelman was almost upon them. 1t
was impossible for Walker to get out
of the way and he ran direct for the
horse, knocking both animal and brake
over. Although bruised and dazed, Wall
ker jumped on again as soon as posi-
BILE and was off to finish his part of the
race. The accident accounts for the
slow time of 1880. The fact that
Walker could upset horse and break
throw out two ladies and injure him
self severely, and yet have his Cleve-
land intact speaks volumes for his
wheel.
Dexter's team was not what he ex-
pected to put in the race; two of those
he had depended upon dropped out on
Friday and he had to take what he
could get.
Sylvester says he would have lowered
his time at least eight seconds, but
Martin got ahead of him once and it
was just the same as if the sun was
shining in his eyes. 1t is presumed that
Syl's remarks have some reference to
Martins locks.

Fought Over a Woman.

For the love of woman Henry
Thomas and Albert Stafford fought a
duel to the death near Mount Pleasant,
Fla, last week. For two months they
have gone heavily armed and 1t was
known that when they met fight
would follow. Thomas and two friends
went hunting, not knowing that Stat
ford and three friends had gone on a
similar errand. In the afternoon they
met and it seemed that general hight
would ensue. Thomas however, SAID
that only be and Stafford were concern
ed and asked that they be allowed to
fight it out. This was agreed to, and
Thomas and Stafford, armed with PTS
tolls, faced each other at thirty yards
and began firing. Neither was injured
by the first exchange and the men ad.
vanced on each other. At the second
shot Thomas fell with bullet IN his
bowels. Stafford still advanced on
the PROSTATE man, firing, when Thorn
as staggered to his feet and, steadylng
himself by a tree, took deliberate aim
and sent bullet through his foes heart
Thomas died two hours later. In
taking the bodies of the young mel

dence of the girl for whom they fought

EIoped an Hour After Marriage.

The marriage Of Miss Milligan Hurst
to Mr.. William Garrett, Of Jessamine
county, KY, which was solemnized at
Squire Coy's, near Kirksville, Monday
night, terminated i'll sensational man
ner not looked for by the guests. In
less than an hour after the ceremony
had been performed, and while the
guests were at the wedding feast, a
former sutton of the young lady APP
peared upon the scene and beckOned
to the newly-made bride. She seemed
to understand the signal, and they left
together.
The deserted bridegroom called at
the house OF the officiating minister,
Rev. John G. Pond, Tuesday morning,
and requested the return of the license
and fee, which. however, the preacher
refused to give up, Determined to get
even in some way with his tickle bride,
Garrett returned to her home, and, COL
Letting what remained Of her wedding
trousseau, drove back with it to his
Jessamine county home. Nothing has
been heard of the clippers since their
disappearance.

Notes From Nea. by.

A fire at the steam brick works at
Frederick, Nd, last Saturday, de-
stroyed property to the amount OF
$4,000. Insured.
The shops of the Taylor Manufac-
turing Company, Chambersburg, Pa
closed down Saturday, indefinitely.
The plant was removed there from
Westminster, Nd, dozen years ago,
and since that time the people of that
town and county have put over half
million dollars in the company. At
one time the company was prosperous.
and employed nearly four hundred
men. Five years ago the company
went to the wall, and since that time
it has really been operated by the cred
itors. The plant is worth several hum
dred thousand dollars and will soon
be sold.
Several days ago John Doonan and
wife, young married couple from
Cumberland arrived in Frederick, Md,
and took up their abode at the board
ing-house of Mrs. Catherine Horn.
They remained in their room most OF
the time and took their meals IN their
room. This caused comment, and 1t
was soon whispered around that the
bride was Miss Mabel Stuart, of Har-
per's Ferry, who disappeared so mys'
teriously from Camden Station. The
couple were watched very closely, and
finally the suspicious were commum-
Gated to them. They made known
who they were and then left the suspic'
ious town.
The heirs of Col. John ]. Bowles
have instituted suit against Lewis FAITH
to dispossess him of the lot Of GROUND
on which the old school at Han
cock, Nd, was built. Mr.. Faith -four
years ago purchased the lot from the
board of county school commissioners
and got a title for it. The schoo
board built new schocl-house on an
other lot. Colonel Bowles in 1865
donated the lot in dispute, with the
reservation that it should be used only
for school purposes. The heirs-Mrs
Rosanna Bowles and her daughter
Mrs. Anna B. Kendall-claim tina
by selling the lot and con erting it t.
other than school uses the property
reverts to them.

A Little Girl Saves a Train.

A wreck on the Baltimore and
Ohio Southwestern Railroad near
Portsmouth, Ohio, was averted the 9TH
er night by little Mary Och, a nine
year-old girl. The little girl was out
with lantern hunting stray horse,
which she discovered was caught fast
in a bridge, near sharp curve Of the
railroad. Knowing that the evening
accommodation train, which is general
ly crowded with passengers, was nearly
due, the child crawled across the lof-
ty trestle, passed the frightened and
plunging horse, and then around the
curve, where she built large fire IN
the centre of the track to attract atten-
ton of the trainmen. Her efforts were
successful, the train being stopped
within few feet of the beacon. Had
the engine struck the horse, it, with
the train, would probably have been
thrown into the creek-bed, distance
of eighty feet. There were over lOO
passengers on the train, and their graf
itude to the brave little girl was un'
bounded.
