Miss MOORE FIGHTS AN EAGLE.-A
dispatch from Jersey Shore, Pa, say 8
Miss Bertha Moore, accompanied by S
year-old Elsie Talsen, went for walk
on Wednesday on the mountain turn.
Becoming weary she seated herself and
beguiled the time by reading. The
child was playing near. Suddenly Miss
Moore was startled by it's agonized cry.
She was Mortified to see an eagle trying
to carry the child away. She went to
the rescue. When the eagle saw her
it left the child, and with swoop came
down with terrific force on the should
ers OF Miss Moore. Then began des-
perate struggle. The girl tried to drive
the eagle away. AS often as it was
beaten offit would return with swoop,
tearing her clothes. When almost
exhaused Miss Moore succeeded in get
ting tight hold of the eagles head.
This proved her salvation, for the Gag e
in its struggle to get free broke its neck.
Miss Moore tainted, but soon recovered
herself. Covered with blood she led
the child, which was little hurt, and
dragged the eagle mile to her home.
The eagle measured eight feet from tip
to tin of wings.

BLAKE'S ARREST
But Small Horn of Opium
Found in Valise.
No Trace of Large Quantity Sup
posed to Have Been
Landed.

For several weeks the detectives
have been watching a certain com
bination and especially ]. w. Blake
who arrived in Honolulu from Van
couver, B. c., in December last
this in pursuance of the MarshaPs or
| ders given after having received infor.
nation from a reliable source.
The watch during the past three
weeks was more vigilant than ever ant
the object of all this nosing around 81
the detectives was Blake, who has q
cottage in Fowler's Yard, the place il
which he has resided since his arrival
in the country.
Late on the night of Tuesday, Janu-
airy 10Th, information was commune
Gated to David KAPPA to the effect that
opium had been seen to go into the
cottaege, No. 70 occupied by Blake.
On the next day the detectives started
in to shadow the place and keep even
closer watch than ever on Blake who
was seen to leave the cottage quite
early. Strange as it may seen, he did
not return and was not seen all day
long.
In the evening he was seen hang
ing about in the vicinity of the shoot
ing gallery and other places in the
immediate vicinity on Hotel street.
little later on he was seen to cross
over to the California Wine Company
where he was met by Opium" Brown
in the deep shadow of the doorway.
Immediately there followed a muf-
fed conversation of nearly three
quarters of an hour
This finished Brown went toward
Fort on the mauka side of the street
while Blake crossed over and going
up Nuuanu, was lost sight of in Chap
lain Lane.
At about $40 p. m, he was seen to
come down Nuuanu street with
Brown. The two walked to King
street and over to Castle & Cookies
corner where they took a hack and
drove off. That was the last seen of
Blake for that night and the next
day.
Between II and II o'clock Thursday
night he was seen to enter his cottage
and just shortly before 1 a. m. Friday,
Detective KAPPA stepped in and arrest
ed his man.
Upon searching the premises no
opium could be found but the fact that
one of the two satchels which Blake
was known to be the possessor, was
absent, gave the detectives some hope.
Blake was locked up and yesterday
morning a warrant of search for the
office of the Machines Home was Sc
cured and the detectives started out on
their mission.
John Gilberston, the old janitor.
was asked if he knew of a certain
satchel which Blake had left there.
To this he replied in the affirmative
and going over to a trunk took out
the required article.
Upon opening this, one very large
lichee nut, completely filled with
opium, was found. In the opinion CT
the detectives this was the last of the
samples which had been passed around
to retail Chinese opium dealers. The
contents of the nut gave every appear
ance of having been put in not more
than three days ago.

sue. The boat may have to make a
number of trips into the channel in
order to lead the birds up to very long
distances.
The care and maintenance of the
birds is the same as that for ordinary
pigeons. But there must be special care
and arrangements, so that the birds
which return home shall, on entering
the cote, give a signal, or enter a spe-
cial room and not mix with the other
birds until the messages are taken
from them, so the birds destined for
different places must be kept apart
As the birds require only a simple diet
of peas, the cost of maintenance is
nearly nominal.
One of the best books on the subject
is THE breeding and training of hon.
ing pigeons written by Louis Hoser,

Oahu Sugar Co.

The subscribers to the new Oahu
plantation who drew out their stock on
account of the absurd lease scare last
Friday. have returned into the com
pany. An officer of the corporation
speaking of the unfortunate construc-
ton a few people put on the matter
said he deplored the circumstances for
the sake of those who had drawn out.
The whole thing was so foolish, and
the matter was set right before the
public as soon after the first mistaken
reports were given circulation, that he
did not think anyone would go to the
extreme of withdrawing
There are no changes in the business
of the plantation since Saturday.
Work will begin as soon as the ma
chinery can be gotten together. The
steam plows and pumps were ordered
to be shipped at once.
