Fortunate Native Boy.

In the police court yesterday morn
ing Keoki. native lad about II years
old, came up for trial on the charge
of vagrancy. His proved to be a case
cut of the ordinary. His parents are
both dead and he has been living
around wherever he happened to find
a place. There was no one to watch
over and care for him and to see to his
regularity of attendance at school. He
became careless and was arrested for
truancy.
Judge De La Vergne decided to nolle
pross the case, and later asked the boy
if he wouldn't like to go to the school
in Lihue, Kauai, where trades are
taught. The boy was only too glad
of the chance, and gave his consent
Then the Deputy Marshal was seen,
and arrangements were made whereby
the boy will be enabled to go to Kauai
today. Judge De La Vergne will pay
all expenses, and will for this act of
kindness have the thanks of the COM
munity.

NO WAIKIKI HOTEL.

Terms to Severe for the Com.
pany to Accept License.
The Waikiki Hotel project, of which
w. C. Peacock G Co. were promoters,
has been abandoned for the present.
The stringency of the terms on which
the license to sell liquor would be
granted is the cause of the refusal of
the company to accept.
Mr.. Peacock said yesterday that to
compel a bather to pay dollar for a
meal before he could get a drop of
whisky to warm up on was little
greater than he could ask. For the
present the scheme would be aban-
doned, and Mr.. Peacock and family
will return to the Coast on the 4th

Military Mass Meeting Will Not
Be Held.

be HGlu-
Twenty-four delegates from the va
rious companies and from the First
Regiment proper, met at the drill shed
at 1880 last evening to consider the
proposal to hold an annexation mass
meeting of military men. Ed Towse
was chosen chairman; w N Black
ley secretary.
Chairman Towse, calling Lieutenant
Crane 70 the chair, addressed the
meeting. He said that the idea Of a
regimental annexation meeting as sup
ported by himself and others, met with
general endorsement at first. Since
then, however, the recognized author
ity, to which the meeting was loyal and
would be obedient, had decided ad-
versely TO such a demonstration. 1t
was thought a mass meeting of the
military on the great question of the
hour, might be misunderstood and
might be detrimental to the cause in
the States. While the speaker was at
first heartily in favor of the meeting
he readily agreed that it might not be
prudent at the present time. He then
offered the following set of resolutions
