Another New Enterprise.

On last Saturday evening c. V. Stur-
devant opened Yankee Notion" store
at 426 and 1862 Fort street, first door
mauka of Lewis & Co. There was such
crush of customers for four hours that
Mr.. Sturdevant was obliged TO close his
candy store and put the entire force
of six statesmen in the new store. Many
went home and returned with friends
and neighbors after O'Clock, and at
II the lights had to be turned out to get
the people TO leave. The goods are
arranged in bargain counter style, one
table being all &c goods; others 10c, 15c,
20c and 25c, and the prices are indeed
marvels. He says the way he does it is
to buy for cash and he sells strictly
for cash only

Brilliant Meteor.

The residents of Waikiki were
treated at $3.50 last night to a view
of the largest and most brilliant meteor
that has been seen here in many
years. 1t was seen first to brighten
up when at the zenith and the glare
continued until it passed out of sight
in the east. The flight was slow and
the meteor resembled comet in
shape The illumination was so much
like that from lightning that pepole
indoors at first supposed that to be
the cause.

SAVAGE ENCOUNTER.
Fight Between Two South Sea
Islanders at ueeia.

Fight Between Two South sea
Islanders at ueeia.
A telephone message from Deputy
Sheriff Pahia at Heeia, Friday night
was to the effect that two South Sea
Islanders had gotten into a dispute
over a debt during the afternoon and
had settled their difficulty in an en-
counter with short knives which tn y
used with desperate strength. One Of
men was cut very badly about the
head and neck and the other had his
arm slit from the elbow to the tip
of one of his fingers. They had fought
until completely exhausted.
Consultation over the wire between
the police authorities here and at He
Ella resulted in the sending of the men
to Honolulu. One of Larsen's wagons
was sent TO the Pail in charge of
officer Logan. The officers from the
other side arrived at the Pail early
Sunday morning and the men were
taken Immediately to the hospital.
They are in very dangerous condi-
ton.

MATE OF THE LEAH.
Tells.of Work Now Doing on the
Doomed Vessel.

Doomed Vessel.
F. d. Sanders, first officer of the
wrecked Leahi, arrived from Maui on
the Claudine Sunday. He is on his way
to San Francisco, for which port he
will leave on March 4th. Mr. Sanders
spoke as follows in regard to the oper-
ations aboard the Leahi:
Il was at work on the wrecked yes
sci for nine days after she was bought
by Mr. G. A. Spreckels. 1 took the
masts and yards out as well as the
donkey engine and chains. Some 200
tons of coal was gotten out and an
attempt is being made to get more
out.
There is great danger of the vessel
being broken to pieces which will re-
suit if any heavy swells happen to
strike her. She is over on her beam
ends now.
AN attempt is being made to get
the Leahi higher up on the reef but
this is Impossible because the hold is
fuii IF water and the coal is thrsS
feet under water. The vessel is made
fast by thirty-foot cable to a ton
anchor in five feet of water. She is
hove tight SO that she will not go
back into deep water. If the wind
should come from the southwark and
the vessel get off the reef, she would
sink Immediately.

Party OF Pedestrians Have an I'm
pleasant Experience,
At a. m. Sunday party, consisting
of e. b. Thomas, II. e. Mcintyre, F.
Naylor, w. II. Baugh and w. Walker,
better known to the rest as the kid"
started out for pleasant tramp in
the mountains. Walking up Nuuanu
avenue, they crossed on Judd to Judge
A. S. Hartwells home, took a short cut
through the place and then made an
ascent of the ridge directly to the rear.
The day was beautiful one, and the
pedestrians made good progress.
They hit upon the plan of going
around to the Pail, and then returning
home by way of Nuuanu avenue. Close
to what they thought was place near
the Pail. they came to a ravine $50 feet
deep, down which they climbed, think
ing this to be the end of their troubles.
At the bottom they found precipice of
$50 feet staring them in the faces. Night
was coming on, and it was necessary to
climb up the sides of that ravine again.
Slippery mud and slippery grass were
what they had to crawl up on, and ar
irving at the top, endurance was about
gone. However, they started off down
the ridge, expecting TO return the same
way they came, but they landed some
where in the lantana bushes, and final
Iy succeeded in coming out at the street
car stables in Palama, about o'clock.
None of the party were fit subjects for
drawing room when they arrived in
town.

something over $4,000 was cleaned.
The ladies are very grateful to Min
