Burned Che Fa Tickets.

Specials Enoka and Huihui went into
a lane leading from Maunakea street
last evening for the purpose of making
raid, and accidentally ran upon a
crowd of Cinnamon in a certain house.
They we're bent on business farther
in, and went past without disturbing
the men. Upon returning, the house
was vacant. The officers entered, and
there found about so large and small
che ia tickets. Gathering them up, the
officers took charge of the bunch and
burned the whole thing later. Now it
is very likely that today the banker
will be a poor man, for every one own
ing a ticket will claim a winning and
he will be unable TO make any contra
dictiOn whatever.
