a. A. Montana Talks of Again Visiting
His Old Home.
Special Tax Collector A. A. Mon
tana talks of returning to his old
home i'll the United States of Co
lumbia, South America, next Nov
ember. He has been away since
he was a boy about 10 years of age.
Most of the time since has been
spent i'll Hawaii. He has reared a
family here and has become greatly
attached to his adopted country.
When Mr. Montana left South
America his country was in the
throes of revolution. There were
two parties of about equal strength,
struggling for supremacy. Mr..
Montana's family was in sympathy
with the belligerents, and he,
though but boy, felt an active
interest i'll political matters. The
tale of one of his long rides, beset
with danger at every hand, and
iraught with narrow escapades is
worthy the pen of Kilmer.
Should Mr.. Montana get away to
South America, it is not likely he
will remain. Columbia will not be
the same it was thirty years ago,
and he will find after all that Ha-
wal! is his real home.

Curtis and Opium" Brown No .
in the past week. Ten days age
the Custom House people received
a private tip that some opium
would be landed by an island
schooner at Honolulu. The in
former has himself been on the
Suspect" list for some time. In
fact it has of late been believed
that he is a member of an opium
smuggling hui, other members be-
ing supposed to be the two Browns,
Cook, Curtis and several local
John Does and Richard Roes.
The tip" was therefore taken in
good faith. Officers were set to
watch the schooner, and others to
watch the iniormer. The actions of
the latter put the custom house
people onto part OF the scheme.
1t was this: A lot of opium was ex-
pected on the Velocity from Hong
Kong. Pat Curtis and the Spray
were engaged" He was to be
paid 800 if successful. Opium"
Brown No. ? was agent for the hui
and was to receive the dope. 1t
was to be landed near Axis in
Pearl Harbor. The first informa-
ton volunteered the custom house
was for the purpose of deluding the
authorities.
Monday morning, ten days ago,
the Spray left port. She was be-
Gained off port and lay around all
day. About twelve o'clock that
night Inspector Elvin Of the Custom
House and three men left port in
the yacht Healani and steered |
straight for Pearl Harbor. They
intended to sail until the Spray was
sighted, if the Island had to be
At daylight, however, the
sail of the smuggling craft was seen
in the lochs. The Healani entered |
and followed her around. Finally |
the Spray ran aground and both
vessels stopped near together.
After this every move of the
was watched, day or
night. Several times she started
to go out, but the Healani was
close after her. Sunday morning

was acting mate on the Spray, and
a native boy left in the ships boat
for the mouth of the channel, After
that Brown was seen riding away
on horse and did moi turn up
again. The next morning Curtis
announced to the Healani his in
tention of Immediately returning to
Honolulu, saying that the "job"
was finished. At the same time
he Velocity was off this port.
1t is certain the Spray did not
connect with the Velocity. 1t is
almost certain that the opium was
anded somewhere. Some think
Brown reached her Sunday evening
rom Waianae. A cat boat was
seen off that place on both Saturday
md Sunday.
There is an opinion, however,
hat sly Captain Curtis fooled the
custom House people and that the .
stuff was not landed on
south Oahu at all. A man i'll town
'easonably figures that the 500
pounds OF Velocity dope was safely

Curtis was sent to Pearl Harbor

This making of roads and walks with

the end of the present season the COM
