A party composed of T. W. Hebron,
w. W. Chamberlain, Ernest Mott
Smith, J. o. Young, VIM. ]. Forbes and
Mr.. Pierson Of the new bicycle agency
went to Pearl Harbor Sunday on a
shark-fishing expedition in the yacht
Hawaii. They caught an eight-foot
man-eater and returned in the after
noon. On the way up they saw some
thing black in the water. Taking this
to be porpoise from the creatures
movements. the yacht was brought in
to close quarters, and instead of por-
poise, there was 30-foot whale Two
shots were fired at the monster, and
one must have created singing SEN
sation, for it made one great leap into
the air and then disappeared like a
shot into the depths of the ocean.

WILLIE WILDER HURT,
Strikes Head on a Sand Bank at
Sans Souci.

Willie Wilder and five or six friends
were out swimming at Sans Souci in
he neighborhood of o'clock Sunday
afternoon. Wilder got up on the end
Of the pier, and made dive of. He
must have miscalculated the depth of
the water, for his head struck bank
of sand about two and half feet under
he water, and he came to the surface
crying out that he had hurt himself
and wanted help. AT first his friends
thought he was joking, but noticing
his peculiar actions, went over to him,
when it was found that his whole right
side was paralyzed. He was lifted up
and taken to one of the cottages.
o. Carter Jr., arrived just about this
time, and went after a doctor at the
band concert Fortunately, he found
Dr. Raymond, who said that the con-
dition Of Mr.. Wilder was not danger
Gus. and that he would get over 1t
soon. Toward evening Mr.. Wilder's
right leg began to recover its feeling,
and at late hour last night he was
resting very comfortably. He will be
brought to town today.

CULLEN CAPTURED
An Interview With the
Notorious Convict.
Arrived on w. G. Hall Sunday
Goes to See Hula and
is Captured.
(From Saturdays Daily

Marshal Brown received by the Mi
kahala Friday, a brief note from
Deputy Sheriff Coney of Waimea, Ka
uai, informing him of the surrender of
Pat Cullen to him, which, it appears,
occurred a day or two ago. The pris-
oner will be brought back to Homo
lulu by the Waialeale Sunday morning.
When Cullen left Honolulu, he went
straight to Kalalau valley where he
has since been in hiding But the
prisoner grew tired of this life, espe-
cially as it was attended with constant
lodging the officers of the law. He
sent his wife to Waimea to communi-
cate to the Deputy Sheriff the fact
that he desired to surrender and meet
his fate
The rest is easy told. Mr.. .Coney
met Cullen as appointed and the latter
gladly submitted to arrest. He was
taken to Waimea and locked up. From
there he will be brought to Honolulu
to serve the remainder of his sentence.

preferred against him.
While returning from the valley Gull
len informed the officer that he had
discovered the grave of Koolau, the
leper outlaw The two men went to-
gether to the place, Cullen leading the
way AS it only reputed to be the
grave of the outlaw, the officer had it
opened to see if there was any con-
firmatory evidence. A body, too, far
toward decomposition, was exhumed
and it bore what appeared to be two
gun shot wounds. BY the side of it
were two rifles, known to be those
possessed byN Koolau. This formed the
strongest point of Identification
Another fact which seems to con-
firm the idea that the body is that of
Koolau is that Cullen said he had
secured Kalalau valley from end to
end and had never seen nor heard
anything of the outlaw. No one, so
far as Cullen could learn, had seen
Koolau since the report of his death
several weeks ago.
Cullen is the man who shot China
man on this island on January 25, 1895
was imprisoned and broke Jail two
months ago. He escaped by the Wal
aleale to Kauai. Koolau is the notori-
Gus leper outlaw who, in June, 1893,
shot and killed Deputy Sheriff Stoltz
of Kauai and three soldiers who had
been sent to capture him.

CULM CASE SETTLED.
Coal Company Buys the Land Which is
Claimed Was Damaged and the.
Case Is Forever Quasbed.

After dragging it's slow length along
since Tuesday, the "culm case" as it
came to be familiarly known, or the
suit of a. w. Brundage against the
Blue Ridge Coal company for $4,000
damages for land alleged to have been
destroyed by culm from the company's
work being washed upon it, was yester-
day terminated by an amiciable set
tlement.
When the case opened yesterday
morning, Judge Archibald suggested to
the parties that they could possibly
settle their dispute. A recess of half
an hour was taken and before this
period had elapsed an agreement was
reached.
The company takes the land and two
houses upon it, paying $1,S00 for the
same, and agrees to keep the creek
opened so as to prevent future inunda-
tion of other lands. In return, Mr.
Brundage signs a release of all dam
ages past, present and future. Both
sides claim a victory, so evidently the
settlement must need be satisfactory.
The case of the Onondaga Dynamo
company against the Hillside Textile
Works went to the jury at o'clock.
The jury had not returned at adjourn
ing time.
BY default of defendant a verdict of
$751; 80 was directed in favor of the
plaintiff in the suit of the West Phila-
delphia bank against a. Rauschmeyer,
of this city. James II. TOrrey appeared
for the plaintiff. The suit was brought
on a protested note.
The case of August Franz against
Conrad Riehl and Eliza Riehl was tried
before Judge Archibald. Hulslander &,
Alworth and Nosburg & Dawson rep
resented the plaintiff. f. c. Newcomb
appeared for the defense. The suit was
the result of dispute over wages. No
verdict had been reached at adjourning
time.
The ejectment suit of Henry Andrews
against Fred. Eckert for a fifty-three
acre farm in Abingdon was called be-
fore Judge Archibald, just prior to ad-
journing. The action hinges on the in

the descent of property in cases where
the owner dies intestate. NJ. j. Wilson

Mathew is from a paper prepared by
J G. Gallagher of this city, vice.presi-
dent of the Scranton Diocesan Union.
Great and good men stand in the same
relation to the Creator as the planets to
the sun. They came, originally, from
Him, from Him they shed their lustre
and in the darkness of time while He re-
mains unseen they reflect His light and
shed down comfort and guidance upon
poor, forlorn and cropping humanity.
In the GALAXY of names that adorn the
pages of the worlds history as benefac-
tors to mankind, none stand out more
conspicuously than that of a poor Ca
pauchn friar who was born beneath the
dome of n bite Irish sky, five miles from
Caskel In the County of Tipperary, on
Oct. 10, 1890. OF the days of his child
hood, boy and youth We pass by, only to
remark that his simplicity of character
and sympathetic nature won for him the
kindly word, the love and affection of all
who became acquainted with him. On
Easter Sunday, in the year 1914, he was or
dained to the ministry, priest forever.
Shortly afterward he began his labors
i'm the sanctuary of the altar by minis
tering to the spiritual wants of a congre-
cation in the city of Kilkenny. From
thence he moved to far famed Cork"
where the great work of his life and flu
ture fame began. The total abstinence
movement in which he engaged himself
was anything but a popular one. 1t was
frowned on by rich and poor alike, and
he who had the courage of his convictions
and dared to express them as favorable
to even temperance was thought fit
subject for lunatic asylum. In the face
of all these obstacles he persevered with
the result that all the world knows today.

II. As the highest majority any one
candidate received was an even hun
dred it can be seen that the Demo-
Gratis have not saved even as much as
an auditor out of the wreck.
Ten days will be given the parties
on either side to file exceptions and
then presumably the arguments will
be put down for the head of the first
weeks list of the next term of argu-
ment court, which beguns two weeks
hence.
After the Judges have determined
from the commissioners report and the
hearing upon the exceptions, just who
have voted Illegally, the ballots will
be brought in and the Illegal votes
thrown away. Then the judges will
make a recount and announce the
final result. The official order, it is
expected, will be handed down inside
of three weeks.
The commissioners report covers 120
typewriter pages, exclusive of forty
pages containing the full list of voters
and various orders of court, in con-
nection with the proceedings. It di-
vides the voters into various classes,
according to the cause assigned for
their disqualification. In the matter
of afiidavits twenty-seven different
classitications are made.
Mr.. Holgate makes a special finding
oisqualfying fifty additional voters
