Antoine Rosa, ST., died yesterday
afternoon at his residence at the
Kalihi valley. The deceased who
was about 70 years Of age at the
time OF his demise was one OF the
most respected Portuguese residents
OF Honolulu.
He arrived here more than 40
years ago on a whaling ship and
located on Molokai where he married
a Haw allan wife, who ev ntually be-
came mother OF FIVE sons, among
whom is our well-known fellow citi-
zen, Antoine Rosa, one of the m ost
prominent citizens OF this country,
now holding the Office OF Circuit
Judge for the Island OF Hawaii.
The deceased commanded the re-
spect and friendship of all who came
into contact with him in business
and social circles. He was an honest
man and his record ought never 10
be forgotten among his countrymen.
He was handwriting man! The
little ranch at Kalihi which was left
to his management had his most
careful attention and constant care,
The kamaainas will remember that
the late A. Rosa for 26 years was an
active member OF the Honolulu Fire
Department. He was unassuming
in his ways and devotedly attached
to his adopted country. Although
illiterate, his wonderful memory
often made him chat his sons and
other young relatives who needed
pencil and paper in the keeping OF
accounts.
The funeral took place this alter
noon from the Kalihi church, Father
Clement officiating.

WATERFRONT wHIsPsRINas.

The ship Troop will take about
10000 bags Of Irwin sugar for New
York. The agents will despatch the
big ship on or about tomorrow.
Capt. Fritz is in happy frame Of
mind; and compliments his agents
aud other officials in happy terms.
The steamer Kaala left yesterday
for Oahu ports with freight and
passengers. Capt. Thompson will
return to morrow or Saturday with
800 bags OF Waialua sugar for the
bark Martha Davis.
The German bark Spica is locked
at the Irmgard wharf and has com
menced to discharge her European
goods. A. NJ. Hewett is the clerk in
charge of the ships delivery, and
will rush her discharge and make
another record in the annals of
tallyism.
The Superintendent of the Inter
Island Company will rejoice when
he has the newest addition to the
fleet at his disposal. She is due here
in November next.
The bark Gainsborough is dis
charging coal at the Esplanade
wharf. Capt. Harrison's donkey en-
CINE whoops the black rocks out in
fine style.
The bark Mohican is on her way
from San Francisco to this port hav-
ing left the Golden Gate on Sept. ~
She has varied aud valuable cargo
consigned to Castle e. Cooke.
The barkentine Irmgard is report
ed by Frisco papers to have been at
tackled by a sword-fsh, his honor
having rammed decent hole in the
ships side causing her to leak slight

Those Bufalos.

We must again remind the public
that il the Buffalos of the American
Continent are now principally to be
found on reservations alone, there is
still Buffalo or two left on exhibit
ton in Honolulu. OF course, we
refer to the Buffalo beer just intro
duced at the Royal Annex, the
Royal, Pacific and Cosmopolitan
Saloons. 1t will be found extremely
palateable and up to the most re-
fined taste. The system OF inter
chargeable checks still continues,
and those issued for the celebrated
Pabst are equally valid. Taste and
see how good it is.

There is cry for the enforcement
of the criminal laws of the state. 1t
is the law that is really to blame, for
courts it so provides the processes of
the courts as to insure the wealthy
ments. The statute book is crowded
with petty police regulations that are
respected by none. Possibly the time
will come when a few laws, plainly
laid down, easily understood, wiAly
defining crime, will appear on the stat
ute books. Then with a bench the
guilty will be punished. Under exis-
ting conditions this is past praying

a cry from boy friend put him on his
guard. Then ensued an exciting chase.
The boy, who had almost reached Ash
land avenue, turned quickly when his
mother was almost within reach and
shot west on the smooth asphalt pave
ment as fast as his feet could work
the pedals. Surely but slowly the wom-
an drew up to the boy, and just as they
reached Robey street the second time
reached out and grasped his coat tail.
A moment more and Jack was led home

that emanated from the open door it
was evident that the mothers threat
was being made good.

A California Marriage.

An odd case has come up in San Fran
cisco in regard to the legality of GER
tain marriage. Two Californians, an
uncle and niece, wishing to marry,
found that the state law forbade it with
in such relationship. Therefore, after
consulting lawyers, they went aboard a
tug which carried them out to sea be-
yond the jurisdiction of the state, and
there they were made man and wife.
According to California; law the legality
of a marriage depends upon the law of
the place where the marriage is con-
tracted. 1t now remains to be deter
mined whether any statute of the
United States covers the case, since, if
the vessel was of American register,
the marriage took place within the ju-
risdiction of the United States.
