A NEW CANE CAR.
Invention by Master Builder
Hughes, OF Oahu Railway.

J. A. Hughes, master car builder
of the Oahu Railway and Land
Company, has invented cane car
which he claims to possess the fol-
lowing desirable features:
1t is economical, there being less
framing and fewer pieces used in
its construction than in many cars
now in use. 1t is simple in its ar
rangement, nothing about it being
complicated, and all parts easily
accessible for repairs. 1t is dur
able. When properly constructed
the frame, with ordinary care, will
last ten or twelve years. For three
feet gauge, wheels eighteen diane
ter standard journal are to be used,
running in babbit lined brasses.
Both wheels and journal will wear
fifteen years, with care. The brake
is powerful, and consists of few
pieces. One man can stop train
OF twenty cars going at a rate OF
ten miles per hour in a trains
length. With the proper appli-
ances, four men can bring car to
the carrier and unload and get rid
of car in five minutes.
Cars now in use on plantations
can be reconstructed to conform to
the improved plan at a nominal
cost. A fewer number OF these cars
will be required, owing to the IA
cility with which they can be
handled at the carrier. While this
car is designed chiefly for cane, it
will be found superior to any car
now in use for handling general
material.

Hawkins buggy Wednesday night;
one OF them was locked up for his
vagaries. Mr.. Hawkins tied his
horse on Beretania street opposite
the Commercial saloon last night
about 9 o'clock and went to visit a
friend in the vicinity Returning
to the place where he had hitched
his horse, Mr.. Hawkins found that
the buggy had disappeared. Just
then he saw a policeman and a
man-of-war's man driving toward
the police station in it.
The officer had found the buggy
in the rear of the Commercial
saloon with a man sound asleep in
it. A cap was found on the seat
indicating that another had been
in the buggy.
At the police station the man-of.
wars man disclaimed all knowledge
of the affair and said the man
whose cap had been found in the
buggy must have been the one who
stole the buggy.

LAHAINA RACE A TIE.
Paxton Bishop. Timekeeper of the
kinau, So Decides.
Interview With Him About Trip-Pur.
ser Beckley Anxious for Race
Between Kinau and Claudine.

AS was anticipated, the steamer
Kinau brought a different version
of the race to Lahaina between that
steamer and the Claudine. Several
points were brought to light which
change the aspect of things. In
conversation with E. F. Bishop,
who was Kinau timekeeper on the
race trip, the following points were
cleaned:
eff the time of leaving the res.
pective docks be counted as the
start, then the Claudine won."
"When the Kinau backed out
into the stream she met with an
unfortunate occurrence. The Mi.
kahala and Lehua were just steam
ing out and, of course, the Kinau
had to give them the right OF way
This delayed the start for two OF
three minutes.
"The Claudine passed the light
house Just two-and-a-half minute:
after the Kinau, and it is from thai
point the beginning of the race wal
calculated by the Kinau.
"The Claudine arrived in Laha
ina two-and-one-half minutes aftel
the Kinau, making the race til
from the light house. l was stand
ing on the deck and saw the an
chors of both steamers drop.
"The time of each steamer from
light house to anchorage in Laha
ina was 6 hours and So minutes.
did not have stop watch, and 81
could not calculate the fractions
but certainly the time was so clos
that only a tie can be claimed.
"At no time during the race was
the Claudine ahead. The Kina,
being the first to arrive at Lahain;
was forced to find the anchorage
The Claudine had the advantage il
this respect. She simply steamed
after the Kinau and dropped an
Choir within a very short distance
of her"
Purser Beckley, of the Kinau
says he can put his hand on tn
small sum OF $1,000 for a race be
tween the Claudine and Kinau a
any time and for any distance.

Shot at a Cat.

A strange cat played havoc in
the Olds home Wednesday night
Entering in some mysterious way
the feline began scampering in all
directions regardless of the glass
ware which fell in answer to the
animals fastening steps. james
Olds stood this about as long as he
could, and then running for a re-
volver shot at the cat, the bullet
entering the floor near the corner
of the house. Lieutenant Renken,
who happened to be in the vicinity,
went into the house, and after OBJ
tanning Mr.. Olds' story regarding
the cat took the revolver away and
told him to appear before the Mar
shall in the morning.

The most important news brought
by the Kinau was to the effect that
the volcano had broken out, and
was in very active state when
the steamer left the big island.
According to passengers by the
Kinau, the fire appeared in the
volcano last Friday shortly before
midnight. The illumination could
be seen plainly at Hilo. Eleven
hours after the fire made its ap-
pearance, the lake rose 500 feet,
and within 200 feet of the top, &C.
cupying an area of 250x200 feet.
This would make the lake about
the same size, or larger, than when
itfell in on December 10, 1894. Since
that date smoke and steam has
been constantly issuing from the
hole in the ground until December
9th of last year, when fire appeared
in one corner of the pit for a few
hours and then disappeared.
All Hawaii will be more than
pleased to hear of the good news
about Kilauea. The presidential
party and tourists that left by the
Hall yesterday will be fortunate in
witnessing the volcano in as active
a state than ever before.
The correspondent of the ADvER-
TIsER at Hilo under date of Janu-
airy 4th, sends the following about
Madame Pele:
Latest news from the volcano is as
follows: Activity began Friday night,
the Sd inst, at 11:30 p. M, and caused
a rise of about 200 feet in the lake that
night. Since then the lake has been
rising gradually and activity is be-
coming greater. Mr.. Lee thinks the
illumination might have been seen al
Hilo. The lake is at present about
200 feet wide and $50 feet long. From
the floor Of the. crater to the surface oil
the lake it is probably $50 feet.
