a premium lately, due perhaps to
the fact that the contraband stuff
has been a drug in the market and
only those who have been hard
pushed for money have made any
attempt to land it.
There was a small invoice on the
Australia, but owing to the diff
Guilty to landing it safely, the stuff
had to be carried away.
Before leaving, so the story goes,
arrangements were made with the
owner of a sloop to go around to
the other side of the island and
take a position in the vicinity of
Makapu point, and then, when the
Australia hove in sight, get up
close to her, and the dope attached
to a buoy would be thrown over
board and the men on the sloop.
could pick it up and bring it safely
to town.
1t just happened that on Tues
day night about the time the
sloop was ready to sail, retired
captain who was lately in the en-
ploy of the Government appeared
on the wharf and accepted an invi-
tation to take sail and departed
with the party on board. This
fact aroused the suspicious of
others on the wharf and the fact
was communicated to the police
department.
The following day Captain
Parker and three officers left for
Koolau to watch the little sloop.-
She was found off shore and some
time afterward a boat containing
three men was pulled ashore.
When they made landing they
were promptly taken in charge by
the officers and searched. Finding
nothing a detail of men went out
to the sloop and searched there
with the same result. From a ma
tive boy on the sloop the story re-
garding the plan to get the opium
was repeated with the addition
that when the sloop made tack
in order to get alongside the Aus
tralia the wind shifted and the
sloop fell short.
But here is the humorous side of !
the story. A gentleman with large
interests in outside property and |
cattle ranches happened to have
business in Koolau the day the
sloop was searched. As he led his
horse down the steep hill the other
side of the Pail he met the ex-
Government employee coming up
the hill on foot and with his tongue
hanging out from thirst. His first
request was for directions how and
where to find water.
After receiving chart the prop
erty owner asked him what he was
doing on that side of the Pail and
received the answer that he was
Just out for a walk and then babe
his friend good bye, but before he
got away he was asked, "What is it
worth a pound?" This of course
was only in joking way, because
5he ex-Government employee was
never known to have anything to
10 with opium.
When the gentleman met Cap
ain Parker a little later he heard
he story of the search and of the
anger of the man he met on the
'oad
1t is expected that the sloop will
